November 4, 2009

Multipreneuring allows you to do business different because there is no one like you. Doing business effectively in 2010 and beyond will require the business to be different. Currently it is becoming more and mor beneficial to differentiate because of competition and prices. These issues are a constant problem in todays market.

In todays world people buy differently and they make decisions differently. It is obvious that we must do business different. Multipreneuring is a business model that based on providing the customer with an experience based on principles, values and a philosophy.

Multipreneuring: Building an Affiliate Income Stream Correctly

October 29, 2009

Building an Affiliate Income Stream Correctly Myths concerning affiliate marketing are appealing and attractive. People who do not know the entire system the wrong way round are prone to believing that it is something capable of giving them great fortune overnight. Stories concerning affiliates who earn tremendous amounts of money swim in their heads, and while these stories are as true as they can be, there are those who believe that they are going to have the same fortune once they indulge in this particular business. It is true enough that affiliate marketing is financially rewarding. People who have gone through everything to be able to succeed in this business are reaping the seeds that they untiringly sowed. Many of them enjoy the kind of existence that was not possible for them to have had under ordinary circumstances. Having gone through the A-Z of affiliate marketing, however, these people are the ones who know that while such business is lucrative, there is absolutely no easy money in it. Ignorance of this fact is one of the main reasons why there are people who fail miserably in the internet business. There are those who believe in myths concerning the easy money involved in systems such as affiliate marketing. They do not know that there are those who have wasted time, effort and too many resources in trying to pursue the life of ease that they believe this business will give them. And so they go into affiliate marketing armed with nothing but myths and fantastical notions of wealth swimming in their consciousness, never realizing that they bound to make mistakes that would prove to be their downfall. What may be the reason why in businesses such as affiliate marketing, many are called but few are chosen? Perhaps the answer lies on the fact that many affiliates make mistakes that result from their ignorance of facts concerning how the entire business runs. Affiliate marketing is not as simple as an affiliate promoting a merchant’s wares through his website and getting paid for it. It is also about knowing the market and the customers at hand. Discovering what the most common mistakes affiliates make can perhaps dispel the gloom about myths surrounding affiliate marketing by correcting some wrong notions about it. It might also be able to make those concerned understand that like any other business, there are dos and donts involved in this one if they want to make each of their steps count. The first common mistake affiliates make is their lack of knowledge concerning principles involved in their business. This refers to the affiliate’s knowledge of search engines in particular. Affiliate marketing involves advertising, and advertising through the internet could not have been better without the existence of search engines. What every affiliate has to do is to make these search engines his best friend through studying search engine optimization closely. This way, he is able to know what to do in connection with building a better website to ultimately use for his business. The second is that affiliates make the mistake of stuffing their sites with banners that do not provide enough information about the product at hand. The best way to battle this mistake is to provide good content hand-in-hand with such banners. It is important for customers to know and understand the features of a product, and good content will be able to help them realize this goal. The third is that there are affiliates who make the mistake of promoting only one product. Consequently, customers are not given enough options to choose from. There is also the risk of generating fewer sales as compared to having more options for customers ponder about. It is always better to give them a few better alternatives than to give them only one. The fourth is that there are affiliates who make the mistake of promoting too many products. As a result, customers are confused and end up beyond making a choice. It is perhaps good to give them only the best choices. This is because it is ultimately up to them to judge which one is the best for them to patronize. All in all, affiliates that are doomed to fail in this business are those who do not exert enough effort to understand everything involved in the industry that they are in. Knowing their path step by careful step will prove to be beneficial to them, as there is no other way to succeed than to go through any path slowly but surely.

Building A Name for your Business through Multipreneuring

October 27, 2009

A good name is necessary for any type of business that desires high levels of success. Building a name and building a brand are one in the same. Multipreneuring allows us to extend the reach of our business by attracting larger numbers of people. The goal here is numbers in other words lots of exposure. In this process there will be a sorting process determining who you want to work with and who you dont. Multipreneuring provides you a more controlled opportunity to exercise this choice.

As this is decided upon the building of the name begins as you narrow down your market. The value of your business is your effectiveness in establishing a name. The traditional approach is to spend money before the reputation is built. In the multipreneur process money is spent only to refine the name. Rather than trying to attract a market we create one by customizing to the generic list we have built.

There are four steps in the process of building a name through multipreneuring:

1. Awareness: A large group must know you exist. This needs to happen quickly and actions should be taken early while the list is responsive. Get the word out , advertise, make offers. Use free methods only articles, classifieds,links, forums etc.

2. Build Quality. Promote benefits and cater to wants of the general market. Your name will be built as you exceed general wants by over delivering and specializing later. As you meet promises credibility is established. A perceived level of quality and value creates demand for your business. The market will be willing to pay for your product or service.

Name Association. Becoming memorable is important. Some people will know your company by recall automatically and some will recognize the company the name when they read it or hear it. This is determined by the level people  connect with the name. Building a name requires connection. This can be accomplished through a message or visual logo. A catchy slogan or attention-getting symbol can create an identity that pays huge dividends in name recognition.

Loyalty. Retaining customers and the number of repeat customers is a sign that a name is being built. By satisfying the needs of a customer it establishes trust, relationship and value in the hearts and minds of your customer. As market increases and changes occur people will do business with you because they have had a good experience in the past.

Multipreneuring Business Model Maximizes Business Success

October 27, 2009

Many people go broke trying to build a business. This primarily due to the belief that one can do only one thing at a time. This mindset creates blind spots that cause us to miss opportunities. Most coaches and leaders preach that we should focus on one thing at a time. This concept was taught in school and we feel guilty, unfocused and strange when we dont prescribe to this approach.

I became aware of the concept of multipreneuring during my experiences in business. In my attempts to do it like I was told I found myself frustrated and unmotivated. I failed to achieve the results or personal fulfillment I was looking for. I found that I wanted to develop multiple streams of income which required multi tasking. I was doing many things but I suppressed my attraction to different types of businesses. I found that most  entrepreneurs are multipreneuring without being compensated. Multipreneuring is finding ways to monetize your business activities. Multipreneuring is basically developing multiple streams of income through multiple opportunities.

For me personally I found that the traditional approach to business went against my nature. My multi interests and multi talents coupled with the required need for multi tasking made it difficult for me to focus on one program. I have many passions and  multipreneuring allowed for me  to find an avenue to satisfy this need.

Through the years I have developed a multipreneuring business model that combines several areas of interest that allow me to use my skill talents and interests to the fullest potential.

I have developed the business model combing several diverse but similar business into one. Here is what I do to maximize my business success.

Writing. This is a passion therefore I write articles publish on author sites such as helium.com and blog on a regular

Infopreneuring. I love writing and creating so I use this passion to produce reports, ebooks and  e-courses.

Speaking . I am a minister and have a background in counseling and executive management . I give speeches , talks and plan to produce podcast and teleseminars.

Affiliate Marketing. I want to learn internet marketing and make money during the process so I market products that are compatible with my passions and interests.

Network Marketing . I am competitive and I like motivating and training this opportunity gives me that opportunity.

These areas of business allow me to develop multiple streams of income, satisfy my interest while learning and improving my skills. I decided to follow my passions and make money simultaneously. The big corporations do it why shouldn’t I?

Multipreneuring may be for you too! Multipreneuring builds  income faster and the momentum necessary to attain financial freedom.

Multipreneur Mindset

October 26, 2009

Mind shift- Think and Grow

Thinking creates change. Change creates growth. We as humans require change and growth in order to develop ourselves into better people. In todays world more and more people are reluctant to think for themselves. Overtime we have become clones we are no longer individuals at times we tolerate life based on comparisons to the Joneses. It makes us feel better about our life, situations if it look resemble  situations everybody else is experiencing.  This democratic method of rationalizing is not thinking at all it is basic regurgitated, outdated ways of viewing and doing things which I call the group think mentality.

This mental state destroys creativity, courage and individualism and resurrects passivity, underachievement and low expectations. This lack of awareness impacts our outlook and impairs our hunger for learning. As the crown jewel of God’s creation the thing that separates us from every other being is our ability to reason, to choose and to create. Our brain places us in a position of control, power and rulership. Humans are innovators because they possess vision, dreams, ideas, goals and the ability to reason.

 Thinking is required for those who are a part of the heavenly kingdom. if we fail to think we live an animalistic existence. Surviving, scrounging around with no direction or purpose. A mind shift is needed in order for us to function at a higher level and not as a member of the animal kingdom.

Studies suggest that we use less than 10% of our mental power. The biggest obstacle to optimum use of the brain is our conditioning. We have been taught to memorize, to be spoon fed information and as a result we have become like a herd of cows reacting to the conditions around us rather than improving the conditions around us by thinking, shifting our minds and changing to the point we overcome our circumstances.

Thinking errors and  inaccurate data has caused us to form a paradigm with a very limited view. Changing what we allow to  enter our minds will better assist us in creating the desired outcome.

In the new millennium I believe GOD is going to bless those who are thinkers. Simply changing or challenging the information we have learned over the years and begining the process of mind shifting and thinking and growing.

Some call it a paradigm shift. This is when ones world view is changed. It is the season to begin pushing and exploring our mental capacity.  Knowledge is increasing astronomically If we don’t learn exponentially we will be left behind. Knowledge is increasing at a phenomenal rate and it is getting faster by the day due to technology.

The way we think needs to change and the way we use your mind needs to change, The speed at which the world is moving is increasing geometrically. In order to succeed and prosper in this new world we must learn faster.

Mind shifting is all about tapping the power of the subconscious mind (spiritual) mind. This is necessary to move forward in this information age. We must mind shift to reinvent ourselves by changing the way we think and become committed to being life long learners.

The programming of our mind is the key to how we approach life. It is time to program our minds properly so we can take actions that bring desired results into our lives. Increasing our mental capacity and applying knowledge practically and consistently will improve our ability to take action.

Start the process … mind shift – think and grow by taking these simple steps:

1. Challenge your negative thoughts.

2 Read good books

3. Pray and meditate on positive things

4. Use positive self talk.

5. Separate yourself from negative friends and family.

6. Hang with positive and faith filled people.

7. Change bad habits by practicing good habits.

Mind shift is a very important part of change. Remember what ever the mind can conceive can be achieved.

As a man thinketh in his heart so is he.

The Man behind the Blog

October 26, 2009

Whassup! To all of those who know me and for those who don’t know me, It is a pleasure to introduce myself. My Name is Harold Thompkins  also known as “Harold Tee.” I am a   Christian, husband, father, writer, minister, multipreneur,  idea specialist and idea master. I am a recovering professional report reader and meeting attendee with high hopes and dreams. I have been involved in business for over fifteen (15) years I have failed in some very successful companies and I have exceeded in several companies that failed.
I would like to tell you that all the ups and down in business took its toll on me over the years but the internet has helped me resurrect and transform as an entrepreneur.

I am building an awesome internet based company geared toward helping dreamers and visionaries take their ideas from thought to execution to reality with the intent to build enterprise that produce revenue. This company is a result of finally recognizing the importance of people’s ideas in terms of personal success. Humans are the only living beings who can produce ideas and every idea has value. Throughout my life I have allowed people and situations influence me not to pursue and explore my ideas. Therefore I was constantly connecting to every hype filled advertisement, the next secret system, ground floor opportunity and new trend. I was searching outside myself for my breakthrough neglecting the fact that my ideas were my avenue to where I needed to be and where I wanted to go. I felt that if I could find the right opportunity I could become successful, rich and fulfill my dreams. Each time I did this I became more ordinary in my thinking which caused me to override the extraordinary ideas that were raging inside me. As a result I became disconnected from my true nature which led to me looking for an easy way to the life I desired. I became responsive to the pitches that said do no work, no meetings, no investment, no recruiting. Why? I developed a comfort zone and a fantasy mentality because I was not true to the ideas inside of me.

Ironically I never reached the level of success promised to me and honestly never felt totally confident in these opportunities therefore I conveyed a sense of deception when I shared this so called life changing opportunity with others. Because I was trying to achieve something through concepts that were superficial and selfish because I was attracted to it for the wrong reasons rather than the opportunity being a result of our personal ideas. Let me pause here to say you can achieve a level of success based on the ideas of others but when you put more emphasis on these ideas you limit your success because you don’t believe in your own ideas. How can you truly believe in the ideas of others when you do not believe in your own?

Ideas originate from deep inside an individual’s soul and these ideas flourish when the faith of the one it is originated from connects with it and promotes it. If an idea is to survive we must maintain integrity in our expression of the idea because an idea cannot be greater than the person we are inside. A false Idea cannot live outside of the heart of the one who created it and it will not exist in the heart of another especially when the idea is presented in a manner that changes its true purpose to impress others or create a reaction from others. In order for an idea to live it must remain a part of the heart and mind of its creator.
“An Idea does not live because it looks good and sounds good. It lives because it meets a need and serves a purpose. When it works, it lives.”

So it’s not a matter of whether you have a good idea. All ideas in their purest form are good. The question is does the idea live. I submit to you if you are true to your ideas and you believe in them you will not quit, you will not give up, therefore; your ideas will work if the one who created it ensures it has life.

I recall as a young child being very creative. I enjoyed making up stories, creating characters, plots, and sub plots. I would spend hours in my room lost in an imaginary world where ideas flowed like a river. I was very proud of my stories and I would narrate the stories on a tape recorder.

One summer day there were several family members at my house. For some reason my mother got a hold to my tape recorder and played one of my stories for everyone. I don’t know if she was proud of what I was doing or she felt I was wasting too much time alone producing these stories.

At any rate as the story played everyone laughed. I can’t begin to explain the shame, anger, hurt and frustration I felt that day. This passionate idea I had was very important to me and what I created was an extension of me. I felt personally attacked by this experience and throughout my life when I had ideas I experienced these feeling more intensely. As a result I suppressed my creativity and began to do just enough to get by in life. I developed a habit of underachievement. Although I was very talented in many areas I never pursued my full potential because I did not want to experience the torment of failure and the pain of being ridiculed for trying to achieve something great. I felt that my effort would be viewed as a mere joke and I never told stories or shared my ideas for many, many years.

Recently I was reconnected with my love of creativity and I rediscovered the importance of ideas which resulted in the creation of haroldtee.com. A place where every individual’s ideas are embraced and supported to bring those ideas to life. At ideacronym.com you won’t be laughed at or made to feel your ideas are not valid we will help you develop, nurture and remain true to your idea. I am inspired to help others improve their lives through their own ideas and goals. Hopefully haroldtee.com will become a part of your new life in 2010.

I meet people every day with ideas about their present and future life both good and bad. I often wonder why people are so unhappy and dissatisfied with their church, marriages, careers and financial status etc. I wonder if they embraced and believed in their ideas would they be better servants, better spouses, have their own businesses and enjoying a better financial status. I wonder if they would just be happier.

I am extremely excited about this company. It will help to inspire, motivate, educate and generate revenue for hundreds of individuals across the country. Our goal is to assist idea guy’s (self starters, entrepreneurs, dreamers and visionaries by providing support to help their ideas become a reality.

Now I am not a guru or some heavy hitter making ungodly amounts of money. I am an ordinary person dedicated to helping people just like me achieve success. I am living my dream of spiritual and financial freedom through inner truth and business ownership. Don’t mistake this for material riches think of it as a prosperous way of living that is giving me more fulfillment than financial independence ever could. I am not an internet millionaire. I work hard every day at what I love and I focus on what I want and I do what I am passionate about. This to me is wealth not necessarily in money but in principle. I want to help you become an idea person and make money. I know together we can make money, enjoy success, more control over our lives and one day, maybe this year financial independence.

Feel free to contact me any time at haroldteemarketing@gmail.com. I would be thrilled to correspond with you. Don’t give up on those ideas.

I will be back soon with some exciting information and resources to move you to the next level. The website should be up and running properly in the next 45-60 days. Remember the purpose of a real idea is to meet a need and solve a problem. Your ideas are needed because there is an over abundance of needs and problems. Wishing you and yours a prosperous remainder of the old year and the new year coming in.
