What Are We Up To?

Happy Beginings (Structure) e) Patience & Mastery (in the meantim The Army & The Battalion

Approach your purpose as if there was ALWAYS a recession 'Its the artists challenge to come up with products and services that they can offer directly to their market... develop a family to help you manufacture, market & deliver your own products... cut out the middlemen who care nothing about the performer/talent/author... they want to make money. But in this day and age, thats not gonna sustain you." Think “TIDE” when building your brand. Sure, TIDE started out with a box of detergent. But how many OTHER products does TIDE have now? THINK BIG, but stay realistic. BIG & REALISTIC! On PAGE TWO I want to talk about patience...

STAY HUNGRY!

ORGANIZATION! That’s what this takes. Thats what we’re doing: Organizing! And besides, there’s plenty of planning and discipline. That means, don’t be wildin’ out when you’ve got a history to protect and a future calling you... That means don’t “lose it” when so many are counting on you. Also, don’t let folks mess up your groove, because (sad to say) we are but “crabs in a barrel” many of us unwilling or not wanting to do the homework to achieve similar results. But I keep on fighting to get everyone on the “same page.” I’m in Marine Corp mode; meaning there’s a certain discipline we must observe. We must use that discipline to write, publish and market the best books effectively. In the latest video I explain how authors can (and will) make money in a world where music, movies & books are shared for free... It has a lot to do with identifying, embracing and keeping time with your target market.
