Alright.\u00a0 I talked about posting my results on this post.
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

Today’s pay pal of $575.00 allowed me to cross the finish line, early.\u00a0\u00a0 I have blogs to build, SEO to SEO, copy to write, PHP to PHP and more work than I can possibly do.\u00a0 And way more than that, to channel Yogi.\u00a0\u00a0 Lawyers, a local News Station…Realtors\u00ae…and others have contracted with me to do everything from setting up social networking profiles (boring), to trying to aggregate information on their competitors (fun).\u00a0 I have a pile of work to do.\u00a0 From Twitter.\u00a0 It’s an efficient clearing house when you’re ready to pick up the phone and be a catalyst and when you see phrases and words you dig at http:\/\/search.twitter.com.<\/p>\n

I’m not highly skilled as a cold caller compared to many. \u00a0 But I make the calls.\u00a0 That’s most of it.\u00a0 And, I had one shitty response.\u00a0 Only one.\u00a0 But I pick up the phone, I say I’m enjoying your tweets.\u00a0 And, I now have money to pay 2008’s extortion<\/span> taxes. \u00a0 I’ll probably have $14,000 after I pay my subs out. There’s money in twitter.\u00a0 Just lying around.\u00a0\u00a0 If\u00a0 I’m a mortgage lender, EVERY Realtor\u00ae would get a phone call in EVERY state I could lend in.\u00a0 Why?\u00a0 Because being ON twitter is instant credibility & rapport.<\/p>\n

I didn’t spend hours doing this, really.\u00a0\u00a0 I spent probably about 70-75 minutes a day initially calling, and then I did follow up, scheduled through ACT 6.0 now that I have my PC working on my MAC.\u00a0\u00a0 (Act 6.0 was the pinnacle of single user CRMs) .\u00a0 I also asked the Twitterers for referrals that WEREN’T on Twitter.\u00a0 That was $8,000 of my $25,150.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I have probably another $4,000-8,000 in business I could extract if I’d follow up with zeal and vigor.<\/p>\n

And there’s the rub.\u00a0\u00a0 See, I need someone to manage and do the work.\u00a0 I’ve sold it, gotten project requirements, I’ve found people with real needs to be helped.\u00a0\u00a0 And I’m looking for someone to help grind out the work so I can honor my clients, and keep the pace up.\u00a0 I want someone that Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
