Posted on February 1st, 2009, by Meggin McIntosh, Ph.D.

A question that came in from a Life of E’s member: I will be purchasing many books this coming year.  I have already bought a number of books from Amazon.com.  I have seen different offers from them where you pay a yearly fee and then get free shipping (for example). I’ve seen other promotions from [...]

Earlier this year when I taught a teleseminar/webinar series on “Teaching & Reaching/Learning & Earning with Cool Tools” (and another on using KickStartCart, the shopping cart system that I use), we talked about using the Broadcast and AutoResponder functions in a shopping cart. One of the frustrations I’ve had is that when something is sent in Plain [...]

Tom Antion’s Fusion Workshop

Posted on August 30th, 2008, by Meggin McIntosh

Opportunity in the Los Angeles area: Many of you know I’ve learned so much from Tom Antion over the years and pretty much buy all of his programs, although I’ve never attended a ‘live’ event he has done.  If you’re interested in learning about Internet Marketing, Professional Speaking, and Tom’s take on success (which matches [...]

Virtual Assistant Sites – Worth Checking Out

Posted on July 6th, 2008, by Meggin McIntosh

Suggestion: An article in the paper the other day, quoting Tim Ferriss (the one who wrote the 4-Hour Work Week that members of MEMc received last fall, I believe) suggested two sites that I had not heard of yet, but may very well be learning more about, as another resource to have on hand: www.AskSunday.com www.GetFriday.com [...]

Royalty Free Music

Posted on March 22nd, 2008, by Meggin McIntosh

Suggestion: After a discussion on a Tier 2 call the other day, I have been looking into more info on using music (either on a recording of your content or as an intro to a workshop you’re doing).  A teleseminar that I have been re-listening to this morning is one from SpeakerNetNews where Rebecca Morgan [...]

MindMapping/Brainstorming Software-Free

Posted on March 4th, 2008, by Meggin McIntosh

Check out: http://bubbl.us which is free mindmapping/brainstorming/flowcharting application that is accessible through the website.  I tried it this morning and it was fun (and free).  The other part I like is that it’s web-based so you could save what you’d created and access it from another computer. So, just a suggestion for those of you [...]
