… the common point is that all of the ones who have made it first somehow busted through, transformed their fears. Among all of them… all of their backs were up against the wall.
They all made a decision that where they were in life was not good enough.
Now… today… a lot of us. for one reason or another have our back up against the wall…
… so right now is actually a perfect time to roll up our sleeves and act as our life depends on it and really show up to our Gift to our New Economy as builders and teachers…

SELLSUMERS: Whether it’s selling their insights to corporations, hawking their creative output to fellow consumers, or renting out unused assets, consumers will increasingly become SELLSUMERS, too. Made possible by the online revolution’s great democratization of demand and supply, and further fueled by a global recession that leaves consumers strapped for cash, the SELLSUMERS phenomenon is yet another manifestation of the mega-trend that is ‘consumer participation’.
GENERATION G | “Captures the growing importance of ‘generosity’ as a leading societal and business mindset. As consumers are disgusted with greed and its current dire consequences for the economy—and while that same upheaval has them longing more than ever for institutions that care—the need for more generosity beautifully coincides with the ongoing (and pre-recession) emergence of an online-fueled culture of individuals who share, give, engage, create and collaborate in large numbers.
In fact, for many, sharing a passion and receiving recognition have replaced ‘taking’ as the new status symbol. Businesses should follow this societal/behavioral shift, however much it may oppose their decades-old devotion to me, myself and I.” Read the Article
Ordinary Businesses are aimed at making money… there is no consideration of how people benefit, it is all about making profits. Social business, on the other hand, is all about social benefits not personal gain. Profits are important to social businesses, which seek to sell products at prices that make it self-sustaining. A social business is not a charity - but profits are not its ultimate goal. When a social business turns a profits, the original investors are repaid, but the rest of the profits stay with the company in order to achieve its long-term social goal of helping the poor.
A new wave is emerging from the depths of what is identified as the 2009 Recession. This new wave is a ‘New Economy Matrix’ where Conscious Minded Entrepreneurs are stepping up to the plate to hit Home Runs.

…some of Richard Branson’s quote
“ Fun is at the core (heart) of how I like to do business, and it has informed everything I’ve done from the outset. I am aware that the idea of business being fun and creative goes right against the grain of convention… ”.
“1st… any business proposal I like must sound fun, and 2nd… I love to stir the pot”
“I is about continually reinventing yourself - and first you have to believe you can make it happen”
“However tight things are you still need to have the big picture at the forefront of your mind”.
“Some of the best ideas come out of the blue and you have to keep an open mind to see their virtue”.
“By nature I am curious about life, and this extends to my business. That curiosity has led me down many unexpected paths and introduced me to many extraordinary people. Virgin is a collection of such people, and its success rests upon them”

Take a look at this interview of the man behind facebook. It is very fascinating. He is supposedly being sued by his class mates for taking their idea. This problem is at one end of the spectrum, at the other end this company may soon have more value to the public then Google. Imagine that. Wow.
Christopher Justice from Sparksight, Inc. visits with Thomas Tucker at the Innotech trade show in Austine… and mentions that ‘Web 2.0 is a sociological evolution more so then a technological break through. He says, “Now people have the freedom to express themselves and the tools to make it easy. It is about self expression and volunteer to share. The infrastructure we use which is Joomla makes it very easy to do so”
Web 2.0 is a phrase coined by O’Reilly media at one of their conferences referring to a second generation of extremely popular websites known for social networking. I see Web 2.0 as a powerful collection of extremely useful tools to help build opt-in lists, qualified interested visitors.
Well the premise of Web 2.0 is authenticity, so if you want to be a successful Web 2.0 Marketer be prepared to have solid information to give away. For instance there are so many realtors online, but who has something of value for todays market with that would actually benefit the visitor. The days of telling people what you do are over, that was for the 80s and early 90s. People are on information overload, they want information they can use. So when building your network it must be done in the presence of potential customers.
The next rule of Web 2.0 is to have a product of value, one that truly benefits them, Web 2.0 is not for spammers or anyone looking to try and sell on their first attempt. Web 2.0 is about building relationships and credibility.
The next rule is to have an opt-in list or newsletter. This will automate your follow up and build your credibility. Any marketer worth a dime has a newsletter, from pop stars to successful mom and pop.
