Yesterday in Planning the Unexpected, I said today would start a series of products, people and services I recommend. Please again note that attached links are affiliate links. This helps me make some money to pay for last minute travel and emergency things during my grandmother’s funeral. Today is going to start with…
Pat is a great person to begin this series. He is the author of “Your Portable Empire.” The major reason he is such a great person to start with, is that almost all the people and products I recommend over the course of the next week I have met through him. Even with ones I did not meet because of him directly, they were people I met through the connections made.
And actually the lesson in a two days will explain the value of Friend-sourcing. This is actually very similar to outsourcing… except different.
But thanks to Pat, the Unseminars and his coaching program I have made friends for life.
What does Pat teach?
While I teach how to get WordPress online and create a website, Pat teaches newbies (beginners) how to get a business online. If you want to change your website from one that just provides information online to one that actually works for you then look to Pat.
This ebook / workbook, Freedom Power was a game changer for me. After reading this book, I realized I could turn my interest, writing, and my skills, WordPress, into something to help me stay online. It takes a lot of work to create an online business, and I am not there yet, but hope to be.
But his gentle instructions walk you through the steps of getting online and developing your first product.
While I went a slightly different route choosing WordPress instead of building sites, it was still his advice and instructions that helped me see the light. It is hard to know how to play a game if you don’t know all the rules. This rule book helps you learn all the steps and parts involved in turning your Website into an online business.
Hopefully I will be able to make it Unseminar 8, however this post was written early to prepare for funeral plans when they arise.
Update: It looks like I will be able to attend Sunday during the seminar between family situations, however I will have to be back home early Monday and hopefully things will be back to normal Wednesday afternoon.
