Over the years there have been many events or forces that have tried to inhibit free thought, free ideas, free enterprise. Whenever there is a downturn in the economy you will find Governments touting that Entrepreneurialismand capitalism do not work. Political parties, Governments and Sovereign nations with specific agendas begin to voice their opinions stating that a "planned economy" or "distribution of wealth" is a far better way to go. In the current economic climate, you will hear it from Leaders who want to control, dictate, and allow government to determine what is best for all. This is not a thriving environment for the Entrepreneur. We have been here before, but as always, the necessity for man to be free and pursue our inalienable rights to individuality, free thinkers and the mavericks have persevered.

Thursday September 25, 2008 6:21 PM BEIJING (Reuters) - Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez : "The president of the United States has finally recognized there is a crisis...that they are the ones who are responsible for the collapse that is happening the in world at the moment, the financial tsunami," he told a news conference in Beijing.

"Socialism is the only route to the salvation of the world."

Yes we have been here before....

“ Throughout the nation men and women, forgotten in the political philosophy of the Government, look to us here for guidance and for more equitable opportunity to share in the distribution of national wealth… I pledge myself to a new deal for the American people. This is more than a political campaign. It is a call to arms.”

Franklin D. Roosevelt upon accepting the 1932 Democratic nomination. The ushering in of bigger government and regulation.

Thursday October 24, 1929 the crash of the US stock market, Black Tuesday ushered in a worldwide depression. Funny how history repeats itself.

FDR entered his term of presidency in 1933 with no ideology on dealing with the depression. The New Deal ushered in the age of social reform which meant bigger government. These social programs were meant to be only temporary but most have remained a part of our government programs that we sustain to this day. Created to help those in desperate need at a time when unemployment jumped from 4% to 25% assistance and an out cry from the people required action. Government moved in. Franklin Roosevelt ordered the confiscation of most gold from private citizens. They were to turn in their holdings in exchange for paper currency. Officials explained their currency would be backed by gold in Fort Knox, so people complied. Normally there would be an outcry from the freedom loving Americans for such an executive order to be passed, but these were not the ordinary course of events. Panic, insecurity and fear ruled the day, runs on banks forced FDR to close the banks leaving Americans unsure of what tomorrow would bring. It is very easy to persuade a nation to accept monumental changes in their way of life when there is a major crisis.

Parallel that todays environment. Government stepping in, taking on the responsibility of the banks. A bailout using the people's funds whether free thinking folk agree or not. Gold and other precious metals barely rising in value. Very similar happenings shaping the course of events. The global economy again feeling the ripple effect and the pointing of fingers at whose at fault has begun.

The call for a globalized economy where a government controlled banking system would be the end of free enterprise as we know it. Dreams and aspirations of the individual would all but disappear. That is why it is crucial to join together worldwide here on the Internet. The spirit of Entrepreneurialism, the ability to achieve success is alive and well. The last frontier for free thinking people who long for the opportunity to create a true business with sustainable income and growth is here. The option if one puts in the effort and works hard independtly can create a lasting hope for the American dream. Fledgling democracies are forming everyday. This is no mistake. Capitalism does work. Reward for tenacity, determination, desire and belief in oneself always wins out in the end.

2. The Internet Entrepreneur Chronicles I - The Last Bastion of Free Thought

Entrepreneurialism is founded on the premise of free thinking individuals. Merit, success, hard work and individual prosperity is rewarded to those who maintain focus and discipline creating a venture that benefits all and the belief in unlimited wealth. That is the essence of Capitalism. Capitalism allows free enterprise to take place and businesses to flourish. It's value is simply based on one thing, the free voluntary judgment of the consumer. Capitalism offers the freedom of choice.

There has been a slow erosion of Capitalism, a shift towards a more all inclusive system that "shares the wealth". The premise is based on the fact that there is a limited amount of wealth to be shared in the world. It must be equally divided thus the work be equally divided. There is no penalty for not meeting the minimum requirement and no reward for individual merit. The mere idea of "shared wealth" minimizes the reward to the hard worker and encourages a dulling of creativity. Now, if you were offered a job that told you no matter what you do, you get paid. You don't get paid more or less than anyone else. There is no additional pay for overtime, but you receive your benefits like everyone else. Sounds secure doesn't it, sounds like an easy way to earn a paycheck. Sounds like Socialism.

Socialism is a utopian ideal that kills free enterprise. It stifles creativity and the entrepreneurial spirit. In Americas's Silicon Valley there were no new IPO's for the second quarter in what was once America's second industrial revolution. There was only One new IPO in the third quarter. Clearly there is a slow down in the economic growth to put it mildly. Complicated tax codes and bureaucratic penalties for doing business in the United States has forced many Industries to outsource or outright leave for kinder shores.

The Internet is the last bastion for the free thinker, the maverick, the maker of dreams that is the Entrepreneur. It is untouched by the bureaucracies of our governments. It offers unlimited wealth for those who are disciplined and work to create innovative opportunities. It reaches every country, every shore, every nook and cranny where the free thinker may exist. Every day, a new dreamer is born ready to live the dream that we here in America created in 1776. The world is a much smaller place with the innovation of the Internet; we don't know where the next Einstein, Alexander Graham Bell, Thomas Edison or Bill Gates will crop up. But as long as the Internet remains the realm of the Entrepreneur, they will be found, cultivated and grown. Capitalism is the hope and dream of many around the world searching for freedom. Wealth and prosperity for the individual IS possible as long as we keep this beacon of light burning strong.

The Beacon of Light

Written by Corie Wallace - Marketing Strategy Specialist


Have You Ever Seen the Face of God?


I have. I am one of the lucky few. He did not show himself to me in an image of Fire or an image of a Mighty Man. He showed himself as the lamb. In the image of a man in a wheel chair. A man in a wheel chair with cerebral palsy. A man left abandoned hoping that a stranger would offer him help.

His will was strong, you could sense the fire within his soul, you could sense his mighty power, it was only his body that had betrayed him. He asked each person as they walked by for assistance and aid, all ignored him, shunned him, and looked the other way. He did not waiver. He remained steadfast.

Finally, a blessed woman stopped to listen although her friend tried unsuccessfully to have her move on. Her dark skin glowed around her face as if she wore a halo. She was to be his guardian angel. He told her of his plight. He had been dropped off by an assistance vehicle service in the wrong area. The driver did not pay attention to the address and simply left him. He was lost and alone. This angel of a woman, armed with her cell phone took action. He provided the number to the service and his id code and she listened, called and demanded they return immediately and drive him to his correct destination.

She stayed with him until he was safely on his way.

She had been tested and deemed worthy.

The scene played out before me. As I sat there, I became filled with a sense of overwhelming peace. I said to myself "so shines a good deed in a weary world". I walked passed the woman and told her "God bless you Angel". I have been changed ever since. There is a sweet smell in the air, the sky is bluer, the clouds are puffier and whiter, the sun shines brighter.

See, I was meant to witness this act. I was outside in that spot for 15 minutes only never to return there for the rest of the day. A portal, a window in time. I know now that our humanity is not lost, that it does still exist.

Why do I share this story?

For I vow, if you reach out, I will be there.

If you fall, I will catch you.

You have a choice who you do business with, how you conduct yourself, who you work with, who you spend your time with.

If you choose me, I will care, make you proud, help you succeed and grow.

That is my shinning good deed in a weary world and my promise to you.

Its Good Business join the beacon of light and hope.

4. Damn the torpedoes Full speed ahead

Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead!

I have been talking to lots of people lately. There are those that see a great future and the current financial mess as a temporary anomaly that we will get through just fine. In other words what doesn't kill you will make you stronger.

Then there are those on the other side of the line who are convinced the USA is coming to an end and there is no use in trying anymore and are ready to just give it all up.

What say you? What side of this equation are you on? I know where I stand. Let me explain.

Basically I thrive in these situations. The greater the challenge the more determined I get. If you have a minute I will tell one of my stories and I have many stories especially stories of struggle. I have struggled my entire life. You see, when I was in my 20s I lived in Santa Cruz, one of the best places on earth for surfing. I started surfing when I was very young. But I wanted to surf GIANT waves. Not an easy feat to accomplish.

The first thing I realized is I had to dedicate myself to achieve this. I also realized it was going to take years to accomplish. It is not something you just go push a button and you are surfing big waves. So, every time there were any waves I stopped everything else I was doing and grabbed my board and surfed. I would go without eating to surf. I turned down jobs to surf. I figured out ways to make money unconventionally to surf. And surf I did. I got thick muscles from constantly challenging myself to paddle out in bigger and bigger waves. I would stay at all day even after I was sure I had no more energy to paddle out but pushed myself. I know what spaghetti arms mean. I know how it feels to be held down under a huge wave so long you would have to stuff the panic of drowning deep into your mind and just hold on until you could finally get a breath.

I would get out to those huge swells finally after years of practice and then I had to face my fear of actually paddling into a wave with a 20-foot face. The fear was incredible and at first it would triumph over my desire to take off and I would hesitate. I had to compete fiercely against other more accomplished surfers who would intimidate you, as they would take off effortlessly on those huge waves.

I remember the first day at a surf spot called 4 mile. I paddled into a 20+ foot wave, snapped up and stood precariously at the top of the wave. My friends below in the water cheered, "Drop in Prendergast! You can do it!" They were all excited to see me finally doing it! And I did drop in and slid down that 20+ feet of vertical water made the graceful bottom turn and trimmed back up into the face of this giant wave. Time stood still and I could feel the breath of God breathing on me at that moment and I rode that wave with grace and ease and as I kicked out to paddle out for the next one I was filled with joy and rapture. My friends were so impressed that I had joined their ranks as a big wave surfer. I now had their respect as well as my own. From that day on for many years I continued to surf. Surfing was my church as I would feel very close to God as I rode one of His greatest creations.

But I learned something from surfing big waves that stays with me to this day. The greatest lesson of life. That great things take great struggle to achieve. This applies to everything I do in life. This especially applies to Veretekk™ one of the greatest struggles and achievements of my life. You see Veretekk™ is one of those BIG waves. And we, like my surfing buddies before me, want to see you ride it and achieve greatness. But you need to have dedication and determination. The Internet offers that last great hope of your own sovereignty.

So we are facing a great financial challenge today, we have had challenges of some sort all of our lives. It is what makes us stronger. Challenges come and challenges go. Something is happening here and it could be the greatest opportunity of your life. What side of the line are you on? Are you going to refuse to give up and double up on your determination? Are you going to be a true entrepreneur and refuse to give up ever? Or are you going to quit, accept mediocrity and become a bureaucrat? The choice is yours.

I know where I stand. I will never give up, ever!

See you this Monday!

We have a special guest this Monday. He is the opposition candidate running against Susan Davis in my district. That being the 53rd seat in the US Congress. His name is Michael Crimmins and he is our new friend.

After I watched the incredible good old boy insider vote for the $850 billion Bail Out bill filled with over $150 billion in pork pass into law I got upset. I know the majority of Americans buried their house representatives with calls, faxes and emails telling their reps to NOT PASS the BAIL OUT bill.

All the US Reps in San Diego both Democrat and Republican with the exception of Susan Davis voted against it BOTH times. Not Susan. I find this behavior arrogant. I say to you that this vote was the great American acid test. If you are an American voter you owe it to yourself to find out how your rep voted. If they voted for it, vote them out. Support the candidate running against them.

I didn't just sit on my laurels either. Since both candidates Obama and McCain voted for the Bail Out I can not support either one of them either. I will be voting for Bob Barr. http://www.bobbarr2008.com. I am convinced we the people need to clean the house out. The following is the banner of my campaign.

I looked for the opposition candidate against Susan Davis and found Michael Crimmins. He is approachable and understands the mechanics of the Constitution and that the House holds the purse strings and creates the law. It is time we took the house back. Michael Crimmins understands the entrepreneur and that is exactly what he wants to do.

You will met him this Monday in the conference. It should be very educational. Please attend; it will be fun.

And hey, it wouldn't hurt to have a friend to the Veretekk™ experiment in the house either. Entrepreneurs are the lifeblood of all nations economies.

I want to thank Michael Crimmins for taking time from his busy schedule to visit us. You can find his website here: http://www.crimminsforcongress.com

Oh and one more thing, he is a retired US Marine Corp Pilot. And you can guess that he and my son Franklin have hit it off! Big Time!

See you this Monday!

This article will be concerning the setup of the forums, using the techniques that Tom Prendergast describes in the training module section of your back office of Veretekk™. I will say that this is a relatively complicated process; however, Tom's step by step tutorial cuts the learning curve way down, even for a seasoned veteran like myself.

There are many services that you will need to become acquainted with if you are going to market goods and services on Google. FTP, EditPlus, building search engine friendly websites and then posting keyword specific information, are all parts of this puzzle. The tutorial trainings within the back office of Veretekk™ are simply your shortcut to success on the net.

Perhaps you may be thinking that this is an easy thing to do. Using AllCapture, to record the sessions, requires planning and strategizing. Tom has worked incredibly hard to give his Veretekk™ subscribers the very best information, and in the clearest mode that he possibly can do. The fact of the matter is, that you must take this valuable information and put it to good use. Simply having access to this knowledge is of no value at all, unless you decide to take your Google business to a new level.

The process for setting up the forum begins with downloading the zip files and saving them to your hard drive. From here you will need to follow along with Tom, step by step, until you get to the end result that you are wanting to accomplish. I will tell you that even though he has made the process as simple as can be, you will once again, be testing your tenacity when you begin the process.

I had to go over the recording several times, and make several stabs before I actually got my forum up and running successfully. You can view my new SEO forum by clicking here: http://businessservicessite.net I will be adding many categories in which you are welcome to add your information to as well. You must use borgertexas as your secret pass code to join this forum.

Remember, the art and science of search engine optimization hinges directly on your ability to write original content. Once that content is written, then you must publish that content live on Google by using blogs, forums, press releases and of course, building search engine compatible websites for promoting your business.

I trust that you know how fortunate you are to be involved with people such as Tom Prendergast and Mike Darling, who really do want to see you succeed with your Internet business. To have access to the full trainings available in the back offices of each of your Veretekk™ websites is of amazing value, but you must decide to work, train, learn and motivate yourself to have the success that you are so desperately wanting.

The Forgotten Man

The Forgotten Man was the man borne out of the Great Depression. He came to symbolize all that America was and could be. He was the average Joe, the hard workingmen and women that would as they always do answer the call to raise the country up. Each citizen has within them the power and the ability to move a nation to action.

In the 30's FDR attempted to stimulate the economy and create jobs by developing our municipalities. Many of our roads, highways and bridges the infrastructure of a nation was built. Baby boomers watched their father's toil many hours of hard labor in order to feed their families. It was good work, honest work yet hard work. Their children watched their weary fathers come home day after day and yearned for a better life.

Many of the baby boomer generation that I have met are self-made men. They had the desire to fulfill the American Dream. To live in freedom, the capacity to exercise choice and free will instead of work to earn an income for someone else. To exact their liberty, choosing to use their rights to act and dictate their lives be lived in a manner of their own choosing. They risked the safety and security of working long laborious hours for someone else in order for them to be successful. They rejected the enslavement of business owners determining how much they earned and how their time would be spent in order to achieve someone else's dream. They refused to be subject to the influences of the day stifling their entrepreneurial spirit.

I'd like to share one story of The Forgotten Man and the power of the entrepreneurial spirit. One self made man whose story encompasses so many. A young man full of hope for a better life than his father who drove a delivery truck for the newspaper company. A union man, up well before the sun rose and home asleep exhausted well before the young man was. There was very little time to share with each other. But the boy was fed, had a home and ran the streets with his friends getting into trouble as many did in those days. It was a hard world; a tough world and it left an impression on the young man. His family, too poor to send him to college, he was destined to live out the same fate as his father. Then World War II struck and he enlisted in the Navy. On leave he met the woman who would be his future wife. He had hopes; he had dreams, to provide a better way of life for those he would be destined to be responsible for.

This Forgotten Man returned from the war and ran into one of his old buddies who got him a job at a sales company as a warehouse man. It was hard work, labor intensive and dirty. But he was smart as a whip and began to study. This was a sales company and he intended to rise up through the ranks. He stayed late and cleaned the warehouse and got to speak with the owner. Learning all he could. He worked his way into the office side and earned the opportunity to go on the road representing his company as part of the sales force. He married and in two short years had a child with another on the way. He worked feverishly, gone many days on the road in order to provide for his new family.

By the early sixties he owned his own home, a wife, three children and a meager existence. He realized his own children were growing up without him. Beginning to understand fully his own father's plight he continued to work up through the ranks trying to earn a coveted spot in the more prosperous territories. He succeeded through his wit and tenacity and was awarded the right to set up a home office and base himself from home. So days he was not on the road or in a sales meeting he was able to share time with his family. Life was getting better, but he remained disciplined and focused. He wanted more.

In the early 70's his boss and mentor was looking to retire and sell his business. This was our man's chance. He gathered his friend and together they eked out some capitol and bought the business. He now owned controlling interest in his own company and a new entrepreneur was born. He now had a wife and three children a simple home with no furniture in his home other than the essentials, no fancy car or great riches, he went without those luxuries but it was all well worth it to him. The man who cleaned the warehouse now owned that very company and his future. He built his business on honesty and ethics and sound advice putting himself on the map and the road to success. Our man did well in the end and lived a good life. Fulfilling his promise to himself and his family, giving his children a better life than he had with all the advantages that he never had.

In the 90's this Forgotten Man sold his business and retired and is now living a simple life in warmer climates. Much that we all wish for today. Unfortunately that story has become increasingly more difficult to achieve these days. Small businesses take the brunt of many of our country's regulatory actions. Excessive and complicated tax codes, insurance, overhead, land to build and lack of opportunity stunt the entrepreneurial spirit. The ability to work from home and control your life, the American promise of freedom, justice and liberty for all seems lost compared to the era I just shared. But it is not, for those that believe, the Internet offers that opportunity. You can develop a real business online, you just need to find that business that will grow over time and build on it.

As our story shows, this man spent decades building a business in order to prosper and fulfill his dreams. That applies today as much as it did then. The premise that there is a get rich quick formula is bogus and preys on your hopes and dreams. But there are mentors out there like our forgotten man's mentor, willing to take a chance on you and help you succeed, you just need to find them. The truth of the matter is, no where but on the Internet can you find a business that you can build, without requiring much capital like our forgotten man needed, no over head, no staff, and your business can be built by comparison in the fraction of the time. It is possible if you are a true entrepreneur, take the risk, stay focused and believe in yourself enough to stick with the decision you have made. Grow your business and it will grow you.

I believe in the entrepreneurial spirit and the success story of this forgotten man. I know him well. This scrappy maverick was my Father, my hero and champion. He bestowed upon me all his wisdom, his savvy, his knowledge. I am here on the Internet growing a successful business and following in his footsteps. Breaking ground with like-minded individuals in an effort to help others succeed. I ask you to join my fellow entrepreneurs and me in Veretekk™ and learn how you can grow a true home business. To no longer be the forgotten man, but the success story and pass on your knowledge to others. I am living proof that it can be done and I believe in you and that you can have the freedom to control your own destiny and fulfill the legacy of the American dream.

Entrepreneurs are turning their dreams of today into the source of wealth and prosperity of Tomorrow for all.

You know I LOVE twitter, but over the last couple of weeks I have seen a sense of panic, mostly because I have been focusing on a target market that isn't currently a small business owner. There is so much education to be done for some of these poor souls or at least they think they are poor because the media tells them how bad it is.

I've got "NEWS" for you just because the media paints a doom and gloom picture it doesn't have to be like that. Let's face it. Doom and gloom sells. Look at 911 how many people (including me) were glued to the TV watching and listening. Remember the year 2000 scare when all electronic data was going to be wiped out? Did it happen? NO... Did some people take advantage of it a make a boat load? YES

It amazes me these predictors are not held accountable for their stupidity when the bad things DON’T come to pass. Sadly, I’ve found that some of the greatest tragedies I’ve seen in my life, like 9/11, Hurricane Katrina, and earth quakes, tsunamis, and other disasters were not predicted or prevented in any real way at all.

Any thinking person understands depressions, natural disasters, war, and more... does happen and that is unfortunately a part of life as we know it. But the media doesn't’t want you to ‘think’… they want you to be afraid and dependent and turn to them for ‘comfort’ day in and day out (bad, bad idea… they never report ‘good news’). To my knowledge, worrying about such events has not prevented any of them!

Action and imagination solve problems a whole lot better than ‘worrying’.

After all…

Napoleon Hill didn’t write, "Worry and Grow Rich", did he?

However, the doomsayers predict doom almost every day it and the media seems eerily cheerful in reporting on anything negative that happens around the world in real time, 24 hours a day year round. What is missing is perspective.

Miracles, recovery, healing, new discoveries, massive profits, enlightenment, giving, growth, birth, beauty and joy are ALSO happening every day around the world.

But you’d never know about it if you rely on the NEWS media for your view of reality.

If you want to profit from these times, let McCain, Obama, the stock market, real estate woes and the nattering ninnies in Congress shuffle papers around to their hearts content. And ignore them. If you have real estate problems or stock troubles, educate yourself on how to best deal with those issues. Tell yourself over and over.. "If it is to be it's up to me" Don't rely on anyone to bail you out!

Don’t envy or resent the ‘rich’, join them! The Money is still right under our noses. In fact this "recession" will produce more billionaires than ever before. (Some people are THRILLED to see it coming) Stocks and Real Estate will be bought at rock bottom prices. (Only to be sold for massive profits in a few short years) Advertising for your business will be much cheaper, because there won't be the competition from the nervous nellies.

SMART Small Business Entrepreneurs are...

Focus on Marketing. We constantly invest (time and money) in marketing we know our business must be preforming marketing that works, we test it, we track it, we know what's working.

Did I describe who you are or want to be? Your best option to increase your income is to growing a profitable small business of your own. Seek out those who ARE successful and discover what they are doing. Stay current on what is working in your industry… and in marketing. Choose carefully… Every day I read, listen to mp3’s, and watch videos on all kinds of subjects about what IS working. I recommend you do the same. To your Success,

To your success,

I refer everyone in my class to the training modules to enhance their Veretekk™ experience. Kudos to you and Mike for all the work you guys do to give us the most powerful marketing system in the world.

P.S.
I used some of the tips in the capture page module and was surprise at the results. I had over 900 hits in less than 2 days and a nice group of premium leads from that alone!

Your new training videos are making my job easy. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

I am finding it easier with these new videos to convert my Silvers to Gold. They are tuning in and getting up to speed faster now because of your tireless work.

I love Veretekk™. This is the greatest blessing on the Internet for the little gal and guy to succeed.

Again thank you so much for your tireless and never ending commitment to help us achieve real independence in our lives.

Robbie Bracco

I first joined Veretekk™ in 1998 or 1999. I don’t remember how long it took but it was a relatively short period of time I had developed enough of a database to start a small communication business. That business still provides a monthly income. Since then I have been in and out of Veretekk™. I would have been better off to stay steady on course and not be in and out, but that was my pattern.

I have been in and out of dozens of mlm, networking and direct sales businesses. Finally the lesson has been learned. I’ve only heard of one company that Tom P. has been in. It’s a more prudent path to get on a course and stay with it.

Veretekk™ has not changed its mission since it’s inception. First of importance is to help the “little guy” (don’t be offended if that’s not you) build an online business that is stable and productive. A key ingredient is a growing, double opted in database of premium leads. The result is an expanded influence on the Internet and growing number of personal/business relationships.

We also learn Search Engine Optimization and Online Marketing. This begins with the basics but expands in the always changing and growing ways to use the Internet to promote our various businesses.

I am thankful to Tom and Mike for holding steady on course and providing leadership for us. We have been given a great gift not only with the technology but guidance and direction that passes the baton so that we can learn and become better leaders in our own business.

5. Taylor Prendergast on Surrealism Art

Surrealism is a cultural movement that began in the early-1920s, and is best known for the visual artworks and writings of the group members. The works feature the element of surprise, unexpected juxtapositions and non sequitur; however many Surrealist artists and writers regard their work as an expression of the philosophical movement first and foremost with the works being an artifact, and leader André Breton was explicit in his assertion that Surrealism was above all a revolutionary movement.

From the Dada activities of World War I Surrealism was formed with the most important center of the movement in Paris. From the 1920s on it spread around the globe, eventually affecting the visual arts, literature, film, and music, of many countries and languages, as well as political thought and practice and philosophy and social theory.

Dalí and Magritte created the most widely recognized images of the movement. Dalí joined the group in 1929, and participated in the rapid establishment of the visual style between 1930 and 1935. In the world of art, the surrealist is able to convey thought onto canvas. The real work of the surrealist artist is seen as more of a philosophy of life and living. Their take on life seems to convey different thought than most people seem to have.

Enter Taylor Prendergast. Taylor is the daughter of Tom Prendergast, well known CEO and founder of Inetekk. Taylor Prendergast is well on her way to becoming the modern generation's answer to the surrealistic art movement around the world. She has been critiqued by some of the most renowned artists in this field, and will possibly be seen as the next prodigy in this engaging and thought provoking type of expression.

Though young in years, her devotion to the passion of art is clearly seen on the pages of her blog: http://taylor.prendergast.net/ Within the pages of this unique blog, you can view her expressive and dynamic craft. To quote from her blog one gains insight into the thought and creativity of this child prodigy: "Time becomes an idea. To make time is to form an idea. To allow yourself to always create and always inspire and let inspiration come to you, here, there and now."

Words of wisdom from a young woman who is choosing to live life on a different plane. The artistic side of Taylor is certainly a result of having the genetics of Tom. Mr. Prendergast is a well known and highly respected artists in his own right. His work in the field of scrimshaw, which is "the decoration of bone or ivory objects, such as whale’s teeth or walrus tusks, with fanciful designs." His work is unique and well known in this medium. He is also a very talented artist dealing in sketch art.

The combined talent of Taylor Prendergast can now be viewed on display at eBay.

For collectors of original and thought provoking surrealistic art, from one of the most outstanding young artist, Taylor Prendergast, this is indeed the chance of a lifetime. Taylor Prendergast's work will soon receive the notoriety and presence that it deserves. We give kudos to Taylor and the entire Prendergast family for allowing this true creative art talent to surface world wide.

6. Why buy leads?
Why buy Leads?

Success in any network marketing company is highly dependent upon your organization's attrition rate. (Active vs. Inactive) It is very common for agents to struggle once they have exhausted their warm markets. With our duplicable lead program, your new recruits can plug in and continue to receive warm leads every day. Our program promotes rank advancement for everyone in your group - Including You! It's in your best interest to tell everyone in your organization about our lead programs so they too can plug right in!

Are you a telemark?

Good, because you are going to face massive rejection calling the leads you bought. You will probably achieve about a 3% conversion for your efforts! 60% of the people you call will either be disconnected phone number or never answer nor return your calls. Of the remaining people you do talk to many will be rude and rightly so, because they don't know who the hell you are and will be upset that you have violated their privacy.\

8. Regarding Customleads and Ryan Holland
After getting your email, Ryan Holland of cutomleads.net demanding we take any quotes from your websites off of our blogs or we would be hearing from your attorney, I did a little Google searching on customleads.

I found this on Ripoff report

Here is a quote from Rip Off Report,

Well, I did not get what I ordered. The very first lead I called was a child. If, as they claim, they interviewed these people on the telephone, they would have known this. When I complained, and asked for my money back, they told me they have a no refund policy. Even though it clearly states above that these leads are guaranteed. DO NOT buy leads from this company. They are ripping people off!!

Debbie Philadelphia, Pennsylvania U.S.A.

Ryan you need to look after your business man!

There are a lot of people out there that dont like buying leads either Ryan and we are one of the largest groups that considers buying leads unethical. I think lead sellers are lowlife hacks. But this is just my opinion.

Listen to this man who understands exactly why leads are the worse investment for building a business. I found this searching Google for you too!

Find more videos like this on www.truveo.com.

Thank you,

OK back to work...

9. Got the following email today from Customleads.net
It seems that Ryan Holland of customleads.net thinks that journalism is not allowed to quote content from other sites. I disagree. When blogging I often will grab quotes in reference to my article to help make my point.

What do you think? Here is the email:

Hello Thomas, It has been brought to my attention that one of your members is copying content from our site CustomLeads.net. I would like this removed. Geroge Dirlam has been copying full pages from our website and putting them on the blog. I would appreciate this removed. I am contacting our attorney today to take action on George for copying to other sites as well.

I dont know about you but I would rather spend my money on customers. Customers that are already buying the products and services I need for my residual income. And, I dont have to call them, they just appear in my downline. How duplicatable is that?

Plus the average cost, not factoring in the time and rejection, of converting a lead into a customer is around $150.
