“The Brain Trust” Makes Front Page News…

Our Brain Trust project is gathering steam quickly — and was just featured as a lead story in an online magazine.

ConnectIT made it the lead story… ConnectIT is an online pub for SMB owners, end users, and admin staff who want to be able to speak semi-knowledgeably with IT staff.

The Nov 15 issues are still available on the left side of the current edition.

He also gave me the “industry quotable” at the top of the pages of BOTH issues. :)

Check it out…

WANTED: 10 Beta Testers for our New “Brain Trust!

Greetings…

If you’ve not been following the evolution of this project, read the blog posts listed below — FIRST!!!

In fact, please do not take action on my “Beta Testers” request below unless you have FULLY read the blog posts and familiarized yourself with the project.

Starts here…

Anyhow, I’m looking for 10 people willing to beta test the “Brain Trust” software, system and membership site.

You MUST fit this profile:

1) Must be a Serious Entrepreneur (this is not a cliche, I mean it) who wants to take your business to the next level. Dreamers-ONLY not allowed. If you have a big vision for what you want to accomplish … and are willing to take action … I want you involved. Your feedback will be valuable. I REFUSE to “hang out” with losers who are unwilling to DO STUFF to grow their businesses.

2) Must be willing to invest a bit of time going through the software/membership site, post your complete profile to test all components, etc. Probably 30 minutes or so. I think you’ll be blown away with what we’re building … and wanna do far more than that.

3) Must be willing to communicate with me and my development team on what works, what doesn’t, what needs to be improved.

4) Must be willing to give a case study/testimonial based on your results. (There’s a hidden benefit to this … you and your business will be exposed to a HUGE audience when we launch.) This will most likely be conducted by phone and/or video conference. Recorded … transcribed … and shared later.

5) Must be willing to put a $1 charge on your credit card or paypal account so we can test our payment and login system. This is fully refundable and guaranteed if you decide you don’t want to remain in The Brain Trust after the Beta Testing period. I can guarantee you that you’ll get a HECK OF A LOT more value than $1 even during the Beta Testing period as I introduce you and expose you to my Rolodex of “Brain Trust Advisory Board Members” … all very successful business-builders and marketers.

If you fit this profile, and you’re interested in getting a head start in our Brain Trust, AND you’re willing to fully participate as a Beta Tester … please SUBMIT your complete information at http://www.ReplyToJP.com (and please tell me a little about the business you’re in).

I or a member of my team will be in touch shortly. And, I look forward to working with you.

Brain Trust: Do You Think We Should Limit It To Internet M

A reporter interviewed me today about our developing “Brain Trust.”

He had a GREAT question … one for which I didn’t have a complete answer.

He asked, “Are you limiting this to ‘Internet Marketers’ and ‘Internet Marketing’ related topics? Or, are you going to open it up to ‘Main Stream’ entrepreneurs — who also fit the profile… high-level thinkers … progressive … serious about building their enterprise?”

So, I thought I’d put the question out to you…

What do you think? What are the pros and cons of limiting it to JUST IM’ers and IM-related?

One reasons I hesitate to limit it is because I don’t consider myself an IMer — even though we utilize the internet as a tool to grow our companies.

Looking forward to your feedback …
