Howdy…Howdy…
I just got back from a mini road trip!
Basically that means I got in my car and
drove around town :)
But this wasn’t just any road trip.
It was a business strategy session.
I do some of my best thinking in the car.
I know, weird – don’t ask.
It’s gets weirder…
Especially when I start talking to myself
out loud – thinking about different business
ideas.
That’s when the neighboring cars start to
give me strange looks :)
But on today’s little road trip I started
thinking about some of the biggest lessons
I’ve learned over the past couple years.
Some of my biggest mistakes…
Along with some of the keys to my success.
And so I thought I’d share them with you.
We’ll pretend you were in the car with me today.
And I wasn’t just talking to myself :)
Ok, so here goes.
The biggest lessons I’ve learned in business…

I would venture to say that nearly every person reading this article has been to a McDonalds at some point in their life. However, you probaby missed the magic behind each of those Golden Arches.
You see, each McDonald’s has a magical quality that often goes unnoticed by the untrained eye.
But it’s enough to get any entrepreneur’s juices flowing with excitement.
Most people look at McDonald’s and only see hamburgers, fries, cheap food, the rising cause of obesity, happy meals, Ronald McDonald, and Big Macs.
However, they miss the magical quality that has turned McDonald’s into one of the most successful small businesses of our generation…

Many people online seem to think there is a hidden secret to growing an online business.
They search, day after day for the “magic pill” that will instantly have money shooting out of their printer.
Unfortunately, it just doesn’t work that way…
(Although I would like to see some cash fly out of my printer…
just for kicks!
But since we’re building a REAL business, let’s talk straight.
There IS a proven formula to creating a successful online business and I can sum it up in just a few letters…
HM+L+T+TT+F= Online Success
Hungry Market + Building a Mailing List + Traffic + Testing & Tracking + Focus = Massive Online Success
