Hello Everyone,

This is something I thought I had all worked out until very recently.

Now, I won’t go into the entire in’s and out’s of how this has come to pass as that would sentence you to about a years worth of my brain activity.

YIKES!

Due to recent events I’ve had to make some choices and changes, both personally, and in business. It’s that whole work smarter not harder schtick…..18hr days at the laptop ain’t gonna do it anymore.

A brief background and I’ll summarize to the best of my ability; strap in, this could get bumpy…..

My “niche” if you will is coaching (advising, mentoring, whatever; I’m not a fan of labels) marketers in the Direct Sales/Network Marketing industries.

(I’ve been in direct sales/customer service in one form or another my entire adult life, and even before.)

I have spent a lot of time talking to a great many of you since I declared that I was tightening focus and splitting into a network of “elementary” Blogs.

My friend Katy Castro recently wrote about transitioning a niche blog, and one of the main points was Communicating With Readers, and that’s exactly what I’ve been doing.

Through comments, emails, messenger chat, and even phone conversations, the majority percentage of you really did not like the idea.

You were afraid I may ignore the other aspects, not cover them as thoroughly as I should or once did, etc etc. I can assure you this would not have been the case.

However, what’s the #1 rule for ANY business? Listen To Your People. (A slightly less obnoxious way to say “the customer is always right”.) It is very true.

Whether they are website/blog readers, customers, clients, or whatever…without them you have NOTHING.
