</em></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Running your own business can be really tough.</strong></p>
<p>There are so many things to do, so many people to connect with, so many action items to execute, and so many little things you just don&#8217;t want to fall through the cracks.</p>
<p>And keeping up with it all can be really tough.</p>
<p><strong>That&#8217;s why it&#8217;s so important to build your Power Team.</strong></p>
<p>These are the people that you know, lean on, and can easily refer them to others. You know the quality of the work they do or the product they sell and the value of the help they provide.</p>
<p>Because we can&#8217;t do it all alone.</p>
<p>And this is also what networking is all about &#8211; helping others.</p>
<p>Some of us have huge, wide and deep networks, and some of us are just starting out to find these people, get to know them and develop relationships.</p>
<p><strong>Not everyone is there yet&#8230;</strong></p>
<p>I&#8217;ve been fortunate enough to be out and about &#8211; networking, speaking, volunteering, working, playing, and so on &#8211; getting to know literally thousands of people over the past several years.</p>
<p>And every networking event I attend, every social function my family goes to, every conference I speak at, I keep meeting more and more incredible people! And I know that I can&#8217;t keep them all to myself, because that would be doing them a disservice and it would be doing you a disservice.</p>
<p><strong>So I want to share something really special with you:</strong></p>
<p><strong>My own network of high quality, easy to work with, top-notch professionals.</strong></p>
<p>But because I know so many people in different industries and locations, I&#8217;m not just going to list everyone&#8217;s name, website and phone number.</p>
<p>If you have a need, a want or something you&#8217;ve been procrastinating on, I want to make it really easy for you to move forward.</p>
<p><strong>Here is a list of people </strong>(in no particular order) that can help you.</p>
<p>If one or more piques your curiosity, please reply and let me know which category. I will reply to you with all the information I have on those people, and if you&#8217;d like, I&#8217;ll even see about making a personal introduction.</p>
<p><strong>- Mortgage Broker<br />
</strong>Whether you&#8217;re a first-time home buyer or thinking about a lowering your current bill &#8211; right now you can save hundreds or thousands of $$ each month.</p>
<p><strong>- Chiropractor<br />
</strong>Put your body back in a state of pain-free healthy balance, rest and repair.</p>
<p><strong>- Realtor<br />
</strong>Looking for *the* perfect home for you &#8211; based on your tastes, your life, your dreams.</p>
<p><strong>- Handyman<br />
</strong>If it needs fixing, I know the guy (sorry ladies.. don&#8217;t know any female handywomen off the top of my head &#8211; but let me know if you are in that category!)</p>
<p><strong>- Web Designer<br />
</strong>If your business isn&#8217;t online, you don&#8217;t exist to many of your potential clients. Marketing is about adapting. If you can&#8217;t easily make small, fast changes to your site, you probably need some help here.</p>
<p><strong>- Insurance Provider<br />
</strong>Making the wrong call (or no call) can cost you thousands, easily.</p>
<p><strong>- Accountant / CPA / Bookkeeper<br />
</strong>Tax time!! But beyond that, you can&#8217;t know everything, and these sensational people that I know, do!</p>
<p><strong>- Estate Planner<br />
</strong>Waiting to get your or your parents&#8217; affairs in order is a recipe for disaster. And fighting among loved ones is no way to live after someone close dies.</p>
<p><strong>- Book Publisher<br />
</strong>Want to be immediately recognized as an expert in your field? This gentleman can make it happen &#8211; and make you a published author in the process.</p>
<p><strong>- Personal Banker<br />
</strong>This one is very difficult to find a great mix of personal service and capability in today&#8217;s world! My team delivers.</p>
<p><strong>- Health Consultant<br />
</strong>We need to fight off terrible health problems from diabetes, smoking, childhood obesity and so many other personal and environmental hazards. Not to mention swimsuit season is right around the corner. Eeeeek! Start now.</p>
<p><strong>- Financial Planner<br />
</strong>&#8220;Those that fail to plan, plan to fail.&#8221; Seriously, how can you reach your goals if you don&#8217;t have a plan and support from someone extremely knowledgeable and proven in the field?</p>
<p><strong>- Career Coach<br />
</strong>The job market is TIGHT. You need every edge you can get &#8211; resume, interviewing, job search and networking &#8211; they all need to be systemized and in top-noth form.</p>
<p><strong>- Home Inspector<br />
</strong>My wife and I found out the hard way when we bought our home &#8211; ASK FOR A REFERRAL WITH THIS ONE.</p>
<p><strong>- Business Growth and Development<br />
</strong>You can probably guess that I can help you here. Yes, I am taking on new clients this spring, so ask me if you want to explode your business.</p>
<p><strong>- Marketing Consultant<br />
</strong>You NEED to have a marketing system in place if you want sustained, dynamic growth that won&#8217;t stress you out.</p>
<p><strong>- Leadership / Executive Coach<br />
</strong>With tight budges all around, managers and leaders are expected to get more done with less resources. And employees are not always motivated and happy. You need help here.</p>
<p><strong>- Day Spa<br />
</strong>You need to look your best. Feel your best. Be your best! Hair style, color, cut, massage, no-chip nails, health tips and more &#8211; for men and women!</p>
<p><strong>- Property Investment<br />
</strong>There are several people you can work with &#8211; you can find them all over. But how to you know whom to trust? This isn&#8217;t something you want to leave to chance. Ask me about my team of experts.</p>
<p><strong>- Support Staff<br />
</strong>Virtual assistants and interns are great ways to get more done in less time, and without breaking the bank. Let me point you to some fantastic help.</p>
<p>And so many more&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>Just reply and let me know how I can help you</strong> to meet these and other qualified people that will take your business and your life to the next level and beyond!</p>
<p>To your success,</p>
