November 30th, 2009 No comments

It’s simply not enough for us to have a goal in life and not work toward that goal. In this video, Brian Tracy gives us a simple way to “do something everyday”.

“People begin to become great when they determine their major definite purpose, their number one goal, and work on it everyday.”

Testing 123: Facebook Marketing

November 19th, 2009 No comments

It’s about time we start running some tests to see how fast we can move forward on our quest to financial freedom. I’ve been using Facebook.com for a couple of months now (yah I know I am late). So far I’ve grown accustomed to the layout and functions of the site. I’ve even integrated this website into Facebook. You can view updates without leaving Facebook and login to this site with your Facebook account.

Now it’s time to see if we can truly generate some positive cash flow through Facebook while helping people out at the same time. It’s a win-win scenario. Visit fbsecrets.willielongiii.org to begin watching the video that explains the techniques I will be using for the next couple of weeks. You will need to leave your name(first name is fine) and email address to get to the next page. Don’t worry, I don’t have time to waste spamming people with stuff they don’t want. You will also see more stuff I am working on after you watch the video, but we will get to that later.

As you already know, signing up for Facebook is free. It is definitely to our advantage to be able to monetize this medium as much as we can. It’s only the second most visited site on the planet… What we will be doing for this test is creating a Facebook group and finding targeted fans for the group. Big numbers are nice but it is much more important that we are able to generate income from our list. In order to do this, you will need a targeted group in the right demographic. Certain people won’t buy anything no matter how much it can change their lives.

The goal is to provide true value to our readers. Gaining followers will be the easy part once we establish ourselves as alpha men and women. Once you become a leader people will be naturally attracted to you. I started my first group around midnight November 19, 2009. You can visit it and monitor my progress here:

Let’s see how well these marketing secrets will work in the next few weeks. Don’t forget to view fbsecrets.willielongiii.org to find out what they are. You definitely won’t be disappointed. If you are, then tell me about it in the comments section.

P.S. I’m also working on some nice twitter goodies which has boosted my followers from 0 to 1500 in no time. We have to keep in mind that all of this is useless if it doesn’t fit our goals. If you don’t have a goal to monetize your social networks then that’s fine, but I’d like to benefit financially from helping others make money. :)

Who are you?

November 17th, 2009 No comments

I’m very interested to know who you are. This site has been active for a little over a month now. So far the growth rate has been exponential. The more I know about you, the easier it will be for us to develop a plan of attack toward our goals. Don’t be a passive reader! If you have a question, ask it! Do you feel the need to brag about your accomplishments and the effort it took to get there? Let’s hear it.

I would like to recognize all of my twitter followers @ www.twitter.com/willielongiii. Many of you are doing amazing things. I’ve already been able to find strategic relationships. If you haven’t followed me yet, what are you waiting on?

Difference Between Being Wealthy and Rich

November 16th, 2009 1 comment

There is a difference between someone who is rich and someone who is wealthy. Many people make the mistake of creating a goal to be rich. When you are rich, you have money for a short period of time. To simplify this, a person who is rich has not created enough streams of income where their money will create more money. An example would be an nfl star who makes three million a year, spends most of what he earns and retires with not much left. He didn’t invest any of his money so there is no way that he will be able to sustain the three million dollar a year income.

Many of us concentrate on the now and ignore the possibility that our efforts can be sustained for generations to come. Having wealth is having money that is sustainable. Wealth is measured in time and not dollars. If you were to stop working (making earned income), how long will you be able to maintain your current lifestyle? Those who are wealthy will be able to maintain their lifestyle for generations. This is achieved through the power of compound interest, passive and residual income, and most importantly having their money work for them.

“That’s fine and good, but how do I become wealthy?”
