Update Sept 20th

We've had a lot going on the last couple of weeks. Our gang returned from Singapore at Jay Abraham's Strategic Business Weekend on a total high. We are totally committed to supporting each other's business for profitable growth and will be meeting on a regular basis for mastermind sessions. We also had a lot of fun, as the pictures indicate. It was a truly memorable seminar experience. Our graduate website is: www.jayabraham2007hongkong.com

Earlier this week I was a speaker at the WBOC event entitled "The Art of One Minute Marketing" and it was very well attended. More than 50 business owners were on hand to learn about how to market their business in one minute or less.

I spoke about the importance of having a USP for a business and I received many questions and requests for more info. I have decided to run a mini workshop for business owners to create their USP (Unique Selling Proposition).

Jay Abraham's Strategic Business Building Weekend Sept 6-8

We are very excited about attending Jay Abraham's upcoming 3-day Strategic Business Building Weekend in Singapore. A small group of entrepreneurs from Hong Kong will be heading off next week to join Jay and 300+ business owners from 21 countries for 3 intensive days of learning business building and profitable marketing strategies.

They will also be joining Anthony Robbins, Stephen Pierce and Allan Pease for a special one-day "Unlimited Potential" event on September 4th. What a week it's going to be!

We have been doing a lot of prep work leading up to the seminar and learning how to apply the strategies even before meeting the World's #1 Marketing Guru himself next week. Jay's strategies are real-world, real time and the best part is, most of them do not cost any money! A business can easily increase their profitability by 50%, or up to 500% without spending any money - so my question is, why would anyone NOT want access to this???

We've been giving away a lot of Jay's materials free of charge. After 30 years of consulting businesses, having worked with 470 different industries and creating over US$7 billion worth of profits for his clients, Jay is extremely generous in offering his content free of charge. I have some of his ebooks to give away for anyone who would like to get a hold of this tremendous marketing mindset shift that can change your business reality forever.

The most important thing is...great ideas are everywhere. It's about taking action that makes things happen.

If you would like some of Jay's info, please feel free to drop me a line. I'll send you his "Abraham 101" at no cost and no obligation as well as a preview of his book "Getting Everything You Can Out of What You've Got."

We're off next week to meet Jay and we'll have lots to report when we get back. In the meantime, have a great weekend and all the best to your business success!
