Are You Just One "Dumb Idea" Away

A “DUMB” IDEA IS REALLY A SIMPLE IDEA THAT WORKS.
The Personal Attributes of a Successful Entrepreneur
Dear Future Entrepreneur,
Have you ever dreamed of starting your own business?
If you have, you're not alone.
Did you know roughly 45 million Americans currently run their own business? That's about 30% of the nation's labor force! And that number continues to rise.
Our country was built by dreamers with big ideas. Read on if you have dreams of your own!
Sincerely,
Ken Blanchard
My story is similar.
You see, 28 years ago, I had a wild idea about being a bestselling author. But I never imagined the book I co-authored with Spencer Johnson, The One Minute Manager®, would become a New York Times bestseller, stay in print for 25 years and sell more than 13 million copies in 30 languages so far!
Acting on my idea allowed me to start a successful business and share my vision with people around the world.
And you know something?
It's been a fun ride! Beyond all the money, recognition and sheer thrill of doing business, there's a deep satisfaction, knowing that what you're doing IS making a difference in people's lives. That's something you can't put a price on.
That's why I'm on a mission to inspire a new generation of entrepreneurs.
Oh, and speaking of inspiring a new generation of entrepreneurs, I recently co-authored The One Minute Entrepreneur™ with Don Huston and Ethan Willis.
And guess what? On the first day of its release, it was the #1 bestseller on Amazon.com.
Take a look:
This just confirms what I already believe in my heart: People are ready to follow their passion and are interested in creating their own successful business.
And listen carefully to this...I'm not talking about making a quick buck. I'm talking about building a business you love. A business you can pour your passion into. And a business that gives you a deep sense of purpose.
If creating this kind of lifestyle sounds interesting to you, then I want to offer you the One Minute Entrepreneur Home Study Program at the lowest price available.
This book is built around what I believe are the 4 pillars of running a profitable business and becoming a successful entrepreneur:
The Four Pillars of Successful Entrepreneurs
- Pillar 1: Sales Must Exceed Expenses
- Pillar 2: Collect Your Bills
- Pillar 3: Take Care of Your Customers
- Pillar 4: Take Care of Your People
Starting and running a successful business isn't rocket science, but there is a learning curve. My goal is to help you dramatically cut the learning curve and give you the knowledge you need to get started right.
Is there a catch? Actually, there is one small catche.
Let me explain:
All the materials in the Home Study Program are downloadable. That means you will need to use the Internet to access the materials. (But don't worry; no special computer skills are needed.) You'll be able to download all the materials to your computer for instant and easy access.
Since the Home Study Program is downloadable, we're able to keep our overhead extremely low and that's why we can offer you this blockbuster program at such a rock bottom price.
Before I tell you the price, let me tell you what's included in the...
