Small Busines Coach – New Media Expo Las Vegas Jan 2013

J V Crum, III @ 6:30 am

Welcome Emerging Conscious Millionaires,

In January I attended the New Media Expo, NMX, in Las Vegas. Ok, I have to admit I went two days ahead of time and spent time at the Bellagio – yes, I had an amazing time. On the personal side I had exceptional dinners at Le Cirque and Yellowtail and saw both “O” and “Love” shows by Cirque Du Soleil. Everyone needs play time

There were upwards of 1,000 people at the expo and I had the great fortune of meeting some incredible people and starting new friendships. In fact a mastermind evolved out of several associations. We just began our new mastermind last Friday. That speaks to the quality of entrepreneurs in attendance.

Guy Kawasaki spoke and we each received a Kindle version of his new book “A P E” – find it on Amazon http://amzn.to/XGZbJl It’s a 300 page book on how to write, self-publish, and market your book. If you are considering writing a book or are at any phase of writing and self-publishing, I highly recommend his new book.

This is THE event for people who blog, podcast, utilize video online or in any way utilize the numerous forms of new media and social media online. The quality of people in attendance was very high – many notable gurus in the space.

Small Business Coach – Create Your Ideal Business

J V Crum, III @ 2:47 pm

Dear Emerging Conscious Millionaire,

This week I continue the series on How to Become a Conscious Millionaire by providing you a blog on creating your ideal business.

Utilize these questions to guide you as you write out a description of your ideal business.

Describe the type of business you envision owning in three years. If you currently own a business, notice any differences from the present in terms of who you serve, what products you offer, and how you operate.

What is the overarching purpose or vision for your business? Think of this in terms of a higher purpose that goes beyond just making money. How will you help or transform your clients – the people, business, or organizations you help.

Small Business Coach – Your Ideal Millionaire Life!

J V Crum, III @ 8:59 pm

Dear Emerging Conscious Millionaire,

Over the next three weeks, I’ll be blogging about the three aspects of your Ideal Millionaire Life. These are your Ideal Life, Ideal Business, and Ideal Position (what you do day to day in your business).

You probably have three motives for choosing to become an entrepreneur. One of these is your desire to create profits and become financially free. Given that you are attracted to Conscious Millionaire, it’s likely that another motive is to achieve a greater good by providing products and services that make a difference for others and our world.

Your third motive for becoming an entrepreneur is almost certainly to acquire the money, enjoy the time off, and have the freedom to enjoy your ideal life. Another way to think of your ideal life is your life at a 10! However, the only way you will experience your life at a 10 is to first define, in sensory rich detail (see it, hear the sounds, feel it), what that means for you.

Small Business Coach – The 3 Skills to Become a Conscious Millionaire

J V Crum, III @ 8:58 pm

Dear Emerging Conscious Millionaire,

Each week in January 2013, I am going to blog on how to become a Conscious Millionaire.

This week, I am going to outline the three essential steps, and therefore the three skills you must develop, if you want to become a Conscious Millionaire.

Note: if you are already a financial millionaire, then utilize this information to set your sights on adding an additional million in net worth.

SKILL # 1: YOU must become skilled at creating cash flows. The #1 way in which to do this is as an entrepreneur who builds your own high-profit business. This means you must master both the art and science of building a business that consistently throws off at least $100,000 more than you need…

Small Business Coaching – My Budget Reduction Plan Dec 2012

J V Crum, III @ 7:25 am

Greetings,

Thanks for your interest in my Budget Reduction Plan. And, while I don’t expect Congress to come together at a level to pass this (or anything as bold and deficit-reducing as this) it is important for us to pause as entrepreneurs and consider what is necessary for our country to create a sound financial future.

I encourage you to leave thoughtful comments. Please add to the conversation. It is up to all of us to work together to create an effective set of solutions. My goal in this blog is to discuss central issues and stimulate thought. We must each decide what type of future we want. I hope this blog helps you to consider this question more deeply.

My brand is “Conscious Millionaire”. It is based on my capitalistic view of life and business. This includes an underlying philosophy of promoting a world in which you, I, and others in society can all win together. I call this the “triple win”.

On the wall above my desk in my den at home I have three words posted. The are:

TRUST PERFECT TIMING

This is how I approach life and business.

I’ve found that when I am authentic, real, true to myself in the moment, that there is a perfect timing that begins to occur. The people, resources, experiences, and opportunities that are truly right for me in that moment begin to appear…
