Money Motivates – 3 Tips You Can Bank On (Video)
Money Motivates: 3 Tips You Can Bank On (Video)
I recently had the opportunity to speak in front of 300 Insurance Adjusters, thanks to an invitation by Dr Mike. I met Dr Mike aka @drmikempa on Twitter and from there that is where he invited me to speak at the conference. He asked me to share my experience of success and motivation as a business owner and independent contractor for both The Somers and REMAX Access.
The 3 main tips/topics that I went over in detail were:
- It is a Numbers Game
- Do Not Step Over Dollars to Pick Up Dimes
- ABC: Always Be Closing
Here is the video:

Tip Jar: Have a Bad Day
Success does not exist without the SUCK. So our tip to you: Embrace those bad days! They are going to happen.
When did it become a belief that success comes easy? It does not. It requires hard work, hard knocks, and sometimes a hard head to finally see the fruits of success. Success without the suck just does not exist. We've all see the billboard...Bill Gates started Microsoft in a recession! That's what I am talking about. To achieve success you have to not only deal with moments of suckiness but also see the opportunity in that sucky moment.
Let me put it like this, sometimes you just have to cry through slicing that smelly onion to get the sumptuous flavor in your recipe!
I challenge you all to work through the SUCK to claim your SUCCESS.
Speaking of some well-earned success, congratulations to REMAX ACCESS in Northern Liberties, Philly for coming in at number 3 for the entire City of Philadelphia for total number of transactions (properties sold) in 2011. What a great year! Everyone simply kicked butt.
Meet Your Neighbors: Bloom in Northern Liberties
Welcome to Bloom in Northern Liberties. This boutique is one of my favorites for women's apparel, jewelry, accessories, and gifts. I love shopping here. The girls who work here are beautiful and know their stuff. Their selections are unique and you won't be wearing the same clothing that all the other girls are wearing, plus, they have one of a kind jewelry that really lets you make that personal fashion statement. Trust me girls, you'll love this place! So, if you are ever in the neighborhood shopping, you must make it a point to visit Bloom at 1001 N 2nd Street in The Piazza at Suite 20, just across the walk from the renowned PYT, home of Tommy Up. Only in Northern Liberties. See you there!

Come out to Busybee Homestore & Design Center on 734 South Street on Saturday, January 28th to swab for a cure and potentially save a life. All you have to do? The process involves a simple swab of the cheek.

In addition, 25% of the store's sales will be donated to DKMS Americas, the world's largest bone marrow donor center.
