Physicians - build a faster, smarter and better business in 2010
Tuesday, October 27, 2009 at 09:12PM 
Every once in a while a little gem is tossed into my path. Tonight I received this email from vSmallBusiness.com, in a collaboration with the Small Business School (from PBS TV) run by Bruce Camber and Hattie Bryant.
Everybody agrees, "Small Business is the backbone of most every economy." In 1994 when we started, small businesses were ignored. Our mission, then and now, is "... to help entrepreneurs and business owners by providing information, case studies and examples from people who've done it.." No matter how strong your skills are, there is always more to learn. No matter what your issue is, someone else who has been there, they gotten over the hurdles, and they can be a guide.
We begin each program this way: Small business is about courage, risk-taking, independence. And we small business owners are survivors.
There are 27 million of us survivors in the USA alone!
To act on our promise, ...to learn about business from the inside out, from the people who've done it, we are opening the doors to experts who can help.
Hattie says: "When you have your own business, you're free to act on those ideas. So we can't just do the ordinary; we have to do the extraordinary. The only way we can compete with big business is to be faster, smarter and better.
So this letter is to explore ways to help you grow your business.
We are stepping up our support for you. We've created an alliance with vSmallBusiness to give you access to a 7-day program that is rich with business building ideas to help you prepare for 2010. We are opening up a unique tool chest at no cost to you.
In the program you'll receive tools to assess the following:
- Leadership: How to Find Time to Work on Your Business, Not Just in It
- Strategy: Why a Documented Vision Can Improve Your Odds of Success by 300%
- Process Improvement: Begin to Plug the Leaks in 2010 Cash Flow through Speed and Simplification
- Marketing and Sales: Three Tools to Drive Successful Marketing Results
- Integrating the Core Competencies: Part 1 - Vision and Customer Focus
- Integrating the Core Competencies: Part 2 - Leadership & Organization Development Focus
- Integrating the Core Competencies: Part 3 - Knowing Your Numbers and Leading for Results
While some of this material may be familiar, as a package it represents a series of core competencies that form the backbone of any small business development program.
This complete package has a commercial market value that approaches $300. Because of our active working relation with vSmallBusiness, it's available to you at no cost. Of course, if you put even one idea to work, the value could readily become pricelessYou only have until Monday, November 2nd, to sign up. Your first tool to help you save time by seeing your use of it in a fresh and strategic light is scheduled to arrive in your in-box on November 3rd. Don't miss out.
We send you our every wish for your greatest success,
Bruce Camber
I've taken advantage of the many free programs Small Business School has offered, and although I only signed up for the new 2010 Challenge course a few minutes ago and can't yet vouch for it, I feel confident that it is being recommended by a worthy organization.
Let's accept the challenge together, shall we?

First off, I love your name and your site. I see good direct response marketing principles being applied here. I'm an Infusionsoft user and James Burkhalter from Infusion told me to contact you about best practices on leveraging Infusionsoft for membership programs.
I'm an author, coach, and consultant in the small business space.
Might we have a 13 minute call to discuss this agenda:
-Method (FUS or broadcast or both) to distribute membership content when people drop into the program (8 min)
-Pros and Cons to using FUS vs Broadcasts (5 min)
Thank You,
Mike Lorence
