Financial Crimes and Fraud Schemes
Topic: Government
Hello everyone!

From time to time I get emails and letters asking my help to transfer money from Nigeria and other countries to my bank account in the U.S.

They always offer me a huge percentage of the transfered funds.

These offers are illegal. The people who send these offers are out to take your hard earned money.

The U.S. Secret Service are constantly working to prosecute these criminals.

To learn more... visit the The U.S. Secret Service web site for more information.

When you do get an email offer... forward the email to 419.fcd@usss.tres.gov and delete it from your computer.

I know several people who have lost money because they trusted these people.

I hope you are not their next victim.

Until next time... I am and will always be... Frank

Harvey Penick's Little Red Book - Lessons and Teachings from a Lifetime in Golf
Topic: Library
I just got through reading "Harvey Penick's Little Red Book - Lessons and Teachings from a Lifetime in Golf".

I enjoyed it so much that I had to apologize about my delay in submitting a positive comment on the Amazon.com seller's feedback page. But the book was that enjoyable!

I read the book because I was told it is a good example in marketing and business management ideals.

I don't even play golf!

I was able to apply Harvey Penick's words to attitudes and approaches to life though!

He not only teaches what he has learned about golf during his long rich life, but he also teaches a philosophy in how to live one's life.

His methods of evaluating the actions of his students and sharing what he has learned in an effort to improve their lives is obvious.

He refuses to use negative impressions in his teachings. Instead, he accentuates the positive.

He educates by guiding his students instead of "teaching" them.

I love his ability to teach with images, parables and metaphors.

His chapter "First Things First" about the golfer who wanted to learn how to get out of sand traps is great! After all, the problem is not always what you think.

I challenge anyone to read "Harvey Penick's Little Red Book" and share with me how they can apply his knowledge to their business and personal lives.

Whether you play golf or not, this book is good reading!

Until next time... I am, and will always be, Frank....

Read my book review.

Then order either the book or the audio or search here. - Later...gfb3

Hello all!
I was pleasantly surprised when I read my Early To Rise e-zine today. On 2 April, I wrote to Michael Masterson in response to a question he asked about marketing of some of his books.

Well, today he included my comments in his e-zine message 1703. This is what he quoted:

Reader Feedback: "I cannot absorb the wealth of information quick enough."

Dear Michael Masterson,

If your new book, Automatic Wealth for Grads, is anything like Automatic Wealth and Power and Persuasion, I think graduates will appreciate receiving all three books as graduation gifts.

I am still reading my copy of Power and Persuasion and will be adding it to my Amazon.com book reviews when I finish. You are one of my favorite authors. I have found your viewpoints to be very similar to my opinions, and I think it's amazing how you are able to put into words what I have learned and believed for years.

Keep up the good work. I am rebuilding my library and cannot absorb the wealth of information quick enough.

"Automatic Wealth for Graduates" v.s. "Power and Persuasion"
Michael Masterson asked readers of his ezine: "Early To Rise", which of several options they would choose concerning the timeframe to publish some of his books....

So I replied in ETR's speak out forum:

"Michael Masterson:

Why decide on which - how about both?

I believe you should publish both books.

You are basically looking at two age markets.

If your new book for graduates is anything like "Automatic Wealth" and "Power & Persuasion" then graduates will appreciate receiving both books as graduation gifts.

Even better, why not offer a three (or more) book discount?

Of course, some of your older clientele may want to read your book for graduates too. I know a couple of people who I may give "Power and Persuasion" as gifts.

I am still reading my copy of "Power and Persuasion" and will be adding it to my Amazon.com book reviews when I finish.

You are one of my favorite authors. You are in good company with Jay Abraham and Robert Ringer, et al....

I have found your viewpoints to be very similar to my opinions. It is amazing how you are able to put into words what I have learned and believed for years.

I enjoy writing, but find it frustrating because my typing skills are so much slower than my thought processes.

I have tried putting my thoughts on recordings, but am not comfortable with talking into dead air.

I am considering recording discussions with those I share my thoughts as a possible solution.

Keep up the good work. I am rebuilding my library and can not absorb the wealth of information quick enough.

Girard Bolton"

p.s. - Just keeping you up to date. Go to Amazon.com and buy his book "Power and Persuasion" now, before you get caught up in something else!

Everyone wanting to become a leader, or read someone else's viewpoints on leadership, then do not hesitate.

Michael Masterson is good reading!

Website History Research
Topic: Resources
Hello everyone!

I found another resource to help you understand what works on the internet and what other people have changed to make thier web sites become successful.

Study your competitors in depth to learn what is working for them and what did not work for them. To better understand what has or has not worked for competitor websites, check out their time lapsed progressions using the Wayback Machine.

By reviewing what other people have accomplished, you shorten your learning curve.

I have made it a habit to learn from other peoples' experiences. It has helped me avoid many common mistakes. Let me know how this resource helps you.

Until next time, I am, and will always be Frank...
