JANUARY 2009
Greetings & Salutations:
The idea for the "American Association of Buiness People
& Entrepreneurs7" (AABPE7) came to me late one night
in the first week of November, 2008, when I saw a TV commercial
for the AARP. I asked myself, "Why isn't there an
organization like that for Business People?" -- After thinking
about it for a couple days, the idea for, and concept of, such
an organization began forming in my mind and I began writing
notes to myself regarding the formation of such an organization.
To get some ideas, I researched the AARP, NFIB (National Federation
of Indepndent Business), Farmer's Co-ops, and a plethora of Business
Organizations - and - I began gathering information on product
and service providers to contact.
Now, the "American Association of Buiness People &
Entrepreneurs7" has become a reality ... it went live
at midnight on December 31, 2008.
We are dedicated to reducing
costs and maximizing the profits of American Business People
& Entrepreneurs.

"Have you noticed and I am sure you have (LOL!), that
when a guru produces an 'amazing' program, that all of the other
gurus, internet marketers, follow suit of emailing their lists
and to top it off, they send you/give you their best of the best
programs for free! I don't know.. maybe just to make a
statement? -- But YOU, are different! You don't do that. My opinion,
you are sort the behind the scenes guy. You've been there,
done that, and that and so forth and so on..."
Thank you, Margaret ...
I guess I've spent too long in the "real"
business world (over 50 years) - and - the only things
I have ever written about are "real" business application
that have worked for generations upon generations of "real"
business people. -- That's why some of my reports ... with only
minor updates ... have sold for over 30 years.
"Real" business just keeps on working for generations.
-- Flash-in-the-pan "make money" programs have
to be continually updated with new launches because they don't
rely upon "real" time-tested and proven business methods.
I don't have to launch a "new" product every
couple months because my programs last and last and last ...
they just keep on producing mega-profits for me and those
who follow my step-by-step instructions. -- Some of my
reports have been selling for over 30 years - and - they work
today just as well as they did when I first wrote them ... making
my readers millions upon millions of dollars.
Wayne Carter
wanted to know ...
"I was wondering who do I get to buy the products once
I have found the products in the United States to export -- I
guess I am over-complicating this but I dont understand who the
end buyer would be or how to contact them...in order for the
sale to take place?"
Wayne ...
You "sell" the products overseas just as you would
here in the U.S. -- Advertise.
Go to your Public Library and ask to see a Directory of
International Magazines. Then, look up the publications
directed to the category of buyers you want to locate.
Contact the companies that advertise in those publications
and offer them what you have - and - advertise in those
publications too.

Thoughts For The Month!
"We should be taught not to wait for inspiration
to start a
thing. Action always generates inspiration. Inspiration
seldom
generates action." -- Frank Tibolt
"The best place to get help is from yourself." -- Epictetus
"Failure is the opportunity to begin again more intelligently."
-- Henry Ford
Can you stump the old master? --
Betcha can't!
Over the past 50 years (man and boy), I have made bundles
of money in direct selling, service contracting, wholesale merchandising,
entertainment (I was a professional Trumpet player, vocalist
& Radio Announcer), freight forwarding, import/export, retail
merchandising, warehousing, real estate, electronics manufacturing,
finder's fees, closeout merchandising, financial brokerage, business
consulting, steel fabrication, gold and coal mining, offshore
banking, mailorder, writing, and publishing. -- That being the
case ...
No matter what business you're in ... whether you're just
starting, well on your way, or at the top of the heap ... I've
probably been where you are, done what you are doing. -- So ...
Anytime you have a question about 'how' to do something in
your business - or - if you have any comments about anything
I've said in issues of this e-Letter; or if you want to add your
2 cents worth ... just "ask" me or "tell"
me.
Send your Questions, Comments or 2 Cents Worth
to ...
with "Question" - "Comment"
- or, "2 Cents Worth" in the SUBJECT.
If I, personally, don't have an answer to any question you
may ask, I will contact some of the professionals in your field
of endeavor (I will probably know one or more personally) to
get the real 'skinny' for you.
Note: If you want to ask a question anonymously
just tell me so when you send in the question. -- Nobody but
you and I will know who asked the question.
