New Year is right on its way so I think a good way to get going is to begin with a series of posts

about Getting Going. That ability you need to just keep at it. Your success and your presence in the Marketplace,

regardless of your industry or type of business will be permanently impacted by your ability to KEEP AT IT!

No matter what! just keep on going. You see, it’s easy to keep a smiling face and motivate your people when things

are shinning but when the going gets though…….

When the going gets though…well….You just keep at it…

The business world is full of examples of people who kept at it regardless of several obstacles. Despite the family or lack of knowledge, of money, of friends, of time, despite their setbacks they kept at it and at the end…..they are still around or their business is still around.

As you can see, to get going, from the start, their are several traits you simply must have. Every successful person that

has cracked the code….knows this is true. there is no way out….you need these traits like ingredients for a recipe.

We are going to begin a series of post talking about these traits…or you can read my book: 10 Things my Father Knew but never got to wright.

So relax, have a cup of coffee and lets begin posting and please feel free to join the conversation……

About Father’s Day:

This is going to be a long post but read on, I promise the marketing lesson is out there for you to keep.

I often wonder why when Mother’s Day comes the family goes out to dinner while on
Father’s Day there is a huge barbecue in the patio. I guess it’s part of a tradition for
fathers to cook at least on their Day, while moms cook all year long.

I would like to say hello to all the fathers in the world, hoping their day, with or without
a barbeque is Fantastic.

Since this is my Marketing Blog, I would like to present the following partial transcript of my Upcoming book, Ten Things My Father Knew but Never Got to Write: which seemed to me quite appropriate, since this is Father’s Day and my Dad taught me great things about life, business, marketing and parenthood, which I try to apply with my son Andre and in my consulting business; things I carry deeply wherever I go, things i share with my mom and siblings, with my wife and son…..

Excerpt from the upcoming Book,

TEN THINGS MY FATHER KNEW BUT NEVER GOT TO WRITE

CHAPTER THREE: My Dads’ Paintings - The Creative Imagination

My father was a great man, a hard working and dedicated man, who

if I may say so and as far as I can remember, had the answer to every question that I ever asked him.
I firmly believe that you really become a man the day that your father is no longer around reason being because that is when you have to start providing all the answers to
life’s questions. That happened to me back in 1999, when my Dad passed away…..

Yet, in my mourning I discovered that my Dad had not left me but that from that day on, he lived inside me with his teachings and advise.

He knew so much about so many things, having been an avid reader and showing always a great fascination for music and the arts….more so as an artist in his early twenties he painted several outstanding Paintings that we treasure deeply, my favorite being:

His skills went together with a strong and compassionate personality, always keeping himself away from the spotlight, acting instead as silent as the coming of dawn.

To perform his daily routine he was always accompanied by his eternal companion and soulmate, my dearly beloved mom and by my siblings and myself and since this is a marketing and business blog, and this is father’s day, what better way to honour my dear Dad than by previewing this valuable information on my blog.

Many lessons I learned from my Dad, lessons which he did not get a chance to write, lessons that I am writing for my son, lessons that I share with you today.

End of Excerpt.

I hope this preview will help your marketing and business efforts and keep on reading my blog, I always welcome your comments and I will soon announce the date of publication for my book.

In the mean time, cheers to you Dads out there, particularly to my father-in law, together with my wife Roxie and son Andre, we salute you with all our love,

and to you Dad, thanks for everything you shared with me, you are with me wherever I go…..

I have to be honest and tell you that my first steps in the blogging business have not been easy.  There has been quite a bit of testing and research on the subject all of which has taken me to this starting point and so I can tell you that after quite a bit of research and trauma, blogging is here to stay and there are countless reasons for this to be.

Never before in the history of the world has there been a more powerful tool to get your message across with the speed and certainty that blogging does.

Regardless of the fact that you can Blog for almost any reason, Blogging for business gives you the possibility to interact with your customers constantly, to receive feedback on all sorts of issues and to maintain a constant flow of visitors.

You can get your message across easy, with speed and with outstanding results.

After 25 years of marketing and business training and with over 10 years of consulting experience I can tell you without a doubt that “Marketing is everything” and that great Marketing strategies will boost your business in a powerful way even when lacking in other fields like finance, planning and management.

We will discuss in future postings these insights and other of great importance like the out of this world importance of Testing, Testing, Testing.  Marketing and Business are made of and grow out of continous and constant Testing.
