You are receiving the BusinessBuilder Newsletter because you subscribed to it. However, if you don't want to receive any more issues, unfathomable as that sounds to me, follow the instructions below and you will be removed immediately.

Hello, glad you joined us again for  another issue of the BusinessBuilder Newsletter. I spent a week away but am glad to be back home, and glad to bring you another BusinessBuilder.

Direct IP Advertisement
A few days ago I received an offer to download a free copy of software that would allow me to send advertisements direct to computers, bypassing email programs. And it included "billions" of IP addresses I could use. I'm sure you have heard of this technology. It  can only send messages to Windows 2000/XP/NT machines, but if you use one of those operating systems, you may already have received an ad by this method. It is touted as not being spam, since it doesn't use email. I am told Microsoft developed it and uses it, as do all the "big guys."  It seems to me that it meets the unrequested/unwelcome criteria that applies to a lot of email I receive. What do you think?

PBL Still Humming
Last time I mentioned the success I was having with the new Push-Button Leads system. I'm happy to report I am still picking up lots of subscribers, and urge you to check it out. It's free for 15 days so you don't need to spend a dime to find out how it will work for you. Go to
http://www.pushbuttonleads.com/index.php?aff=ggordon

The Power Of the Human Voice
My friend Armand Morin has just introduced a new technology to make it easy to add audio messages to your website (and your emails). It is easy, fast and cheap, and adds a classy touch to your website. As they say, it's gonna be big. In this case, I think they're right. Learn more at http://www.ur-in-business.com/audiogen

And I have recorded a greeting to give you an idea of the power of the concept. Click below to listen.

Nifty offer
Have you heard about the free Boarding Pass software? It searches over 50 of the top airline and discount airfare sites for the absolute lowest fares available. And to make it more worthwhile, when you download Boarding Pass, you get 2 nights of hotel accommodations at your choice of 21 U.S. cities. You pay only the hotel room tax and a $10 processing fee. Learn more at http://skyward.travelogia.com/ce

PayLock Generator Special Offer
Last time I mentioned my new Internet business security issues website http://www.AllAboutSecurity.info. In addition to the free resources there, you can still take advantage of my special subscriber offer for the  PayLock Generator. You can read all about it at
 http://www.allaboutsecurity.info/PLG/. As you will note there, it comes in 3 versions according to whether you want to generate only buy buttons, or also subscription and shopping cart buttons. For BusinessBuilder subscribers only, you can get the full-bore do-it-all Pro version for the version 2.0 price ($47). Read the ad, then, to get your special price, go to this subscribers-only link:

Making Your Mark, Part II
Mindset Matters
By Glenn Gordon
(c) Glenn Gordon - All Rights reserved

Last time I talked about the tendency to feel that your website and your business could never compete with the millions of other pages that are put up each day. (You can read it here.) I pointed out that, because you are "unique au monde" - unique in the world - it was important to translate that uniqueness into your business and website, and that in doing so, you would take a big step toward success.

This time I want to continue that thought, but shift gears somewhat toward the mindset that you need to make your business unique, and successful.

I have something to contribute
In keeping with the idea of your uniqueness, you need to have the mindset that you do have something that is not only unique, but of value. You see, being unique is a simple quality of every human being, but contributing something of unique value in your business isn't automatic. Developing the mindset doesn't make it happen, but it is unlikely to happen without the mindset. You have something that you feel passionate about, and that has led you into your business. Applying, explaining and transferring that passion to your customers is how you make your contribution real.

I'm willing to appear foolish to express it
This may sound ridiculous on the face of it, but hear me out. If you're IBM, it doesn't matter. But if you are starting a business of your own, dependent on the stamp of identity you put on it, you better be both willing to really express your uniqueness and ready to accept being ignored or rejected by some. In the online world, being ignored and being rejected often appear identical! Many of us are too tentative and timid to really let our true selves be expressed, fearful of rejection. I don't know any other way to say it except "Get over it!" Rest assured I'm not suggesting boorish or offensive language or expression. There is plenty of room for making your mark in your business without going to that extreme.

I will persistently develop my uniqueness
Let's face it, your style, whatever it may be, will take time to develop. Don't give up before the process is beginning to bear fruit in your enjoyment of this small expression of who God meant you to be, and more tangible evidences of your success. Hang in there! Ask yourself, what would my business look like if I knew I couldn't fail? This is a big step toward giving yourself the freedom to start making your uniqueness the mark of your business. Get started today!

How to Be First
Copyright 2003 by Kevin Bidwell
All-In-One-Business.com

Don't you hate being last?  I know I do.  This is especially true when it comes to a "hot new product."

Typically, new product launches go something like this:

The person developing the product contacts people who own large lists in his target market.  He tells them about the impending launch and creates strategic alliances to  get these "big lists" on his team.  Finally, he launches the product with major announcements in all of these ezines.

Those who get in early tend to do much better than those who don't.

So, how can you be one of those who gets in early?  Here are some keys:

1.  Make sure you are subscribed to the "big lists" and that you scan all the emails they send you regularly, taking note of new offers and promotions.

I have put together a page listing my recommended lists:

    http://All-In-One-Business.com/reading

2.  Build your own list to 10,000 subscribers or more in your target market.  Again, I have put together a list
of free ways to build your own targeted list here:

    http://All-In-One-Business.com/listbuilders

[One of these ideas can get you 10,000 subs in just a few months.]

    There are two reasons you want this size list:

    (1) You want to have people to advertise the new product or opportunity to - and -

    (2) Once your list gets big enough YOU will be on the list of people contacted BEFORE a big launch.

3.  Evaluate every new product or service carefully, making sure to advertise only those of real value to your list.

4.  Respond quickly to new product launches you think will fit your list.

5.  Create a way to capture email addresses from the people who sign-up for your list so that as people take
advantage of a product you are promoting they become YOUR customer, not just the product seller's. 

Instead of being left out in the dark with the "next big
thing", prepare and profit from it. You will be amazed at how well these promotions will work for you.

Share Your Best Life Story With The World

      - by Jim Edwards

==========================

When most people sit down to write a book, they expect it will take months to complete the job. They envision working endlessly and toiling over every word until they finally emerge a year or two later with their finished "masterpiece."

Well, that may hold true for traditional authors, but the power of the Internet makes it possible for more innovative authors to not only create books with compelling content, but to do it faster and easier than most ever dreamed possible.

Texas psychologist, Michael Wolf, Ph.D., represents a new breed of author who sees technology not only as a way to bypass traditional publishing and distribution channels that take years to bring books to market, but use the Internet to actually gather the main content for his book.

Understanding that many authors write in a vacuum about things that only seem relevant in their own lives, Dr. Wolf decided to let his audience help him write his books by sharing their specific stories with him through the Internet.

His book series, called "One Lesson Learned," is currently in development at www.onelessonlearned.com. 

These encouraging instructional books will contain personal stories from ordinary people who share an important lesson learned from their own life-changing experiences.  These books will give both readers and contributors a chance to connect and make a positive impact on each others' lives.

Unlike the popular "Chicken Soup For the Soul" book series which often focuses strictly on inspirational stories, the "One Lesson Learned" series will concentrate specifically on how one person's lesson learned can impact the lives of others in specific ways.

As a practicing psychologist, Dr. Wolf figured out what
your grandmother knew all along: the hardest lessons
learned usually represent the best lessons to share with others so they don't make the same mistakes.

Most people will experience an event or develop a personal insight that changes their lives forever, though they often don't realize the impact until years later.  Unfortunately, the jewels of wisdom contained in those stories usually never extend beyond the individuals involved.

Dr. Wolf hopes to preserve this knowledge through his "One Lesson Learned" book series. 

His inspiration comes mainly through his own 20 years of helping people make positive changes in their own lives by discovering and using their own life lessons.  He also recognized the healing power of sharing these lessons with others, not only for the reader, but also for the storyteller. 

Gathering content through the Internet makes it possible for individuals from all walks of life around the world to share their stories and make a positive difference in the lives of others.

In effect, Dr. Wolf has created a virtual campfire around which we can all sit and gain hard-won knowledge from each other, much the same way our ancestors did before life got so complicated.

You should visit www.onelessonlearned.com right now to learn how to contribute a story or to read sample stories, or send an email to mailto:questions@onelessonlearned.com
