    Family Investing, Food Security, and Learning to Farm ~ The Breakfast Investing Challenge

    The main idea of the Breakfast Investing Challenge is that small weekly investments can grow over time. Today I will buy Bonnie a ‘breakfast’ as part of the Family Investing strategy. And also look at starting a Family Investing strategy with a family in Africa facing food security challenges that could be met through investing and urban farming. I also am making a special offer intended to help bootstrap financial independence. The Family Investing Strategy The idea is to set family members up with Polar Tensor accounts, who in turn set up their family and friends. The AI Neural Network Trading platform has returned from 1% to 3% profits into my account each week for six months. Try entering 2% compound interest into your favourite financial calculator to see what that can do in five years! You can set up your family to be financially independent in a few years. Food Insecurity The challenge for families in Africa and many places in the world is that they struggle every day to get enough food to survive. They simply do not have the money to invest. Polar Tensor has a referral reward plan and a mechanism to transfer money between accounts. We are looking at leveraging that to get them on the road to food security. Growing Vegetables with Urban Farming I have done a lot of volunteering and video work related to food security and urban farming. It is amazing what can be done in containers and small plots. Special Offer ~ Let Me Buy You Breakfast I will send you a ‘Breakfast’ payment if you do the following: Join Ya Ya’s team in Africa: https://polar-tensor.io/sign/up/seckan Book an Appointment with me: https://www.gregdixon.net/investingcalendar Greg Dixon, Your Fun Investing Host Breakfast Investing Challenge Come learn more about Shared Visions Unlimited at https://sharedvisions.com/

    Paradise ~ A Song by Greg Dixon

    I wrote this this song as a deliberate attempt to be joyful for life.  I play it on my own and have performed live many times with others, including a driving rock version. I wish I had a recording of that. This studio version features lead guitars by Mike McCray and  vocals by Alannah Jansen and Debra. A friend recently said that the songs was stuck in her head. One day I will create a video to go along with it. Here are the lyrics: ParadiseGreg Dixon, revised May 15, 2009 [Guitar Intro with hand bells] Eagles, soaring in the sky  (this is Paradise, enjoy your life) Trees, growing way up high (in the sky, way up high) Ooo oo oo ooo oo oo Paradise, enjoy your life Yaa ya ya yaa ya ya Paradise Lions, roaming on the plains (this is Paradise, enjoy your life) Flowers, blooming in the rain, (feel  the rain, smell the rain) [Guitar, like intro] Children, dancing in the street (this is Paradise, enjoy your life) People, loving each other sweet (feel the warmth, from the heart) Ooo oo oo ooo oo oo Paradise, enjoy your life Yaa ya ya yaa ya ya Paradise Grass, blowing in the breeze (this is Paradise, enjoy your life) Ships, sailing cross the sea (in the breeze, flowing free) [Guitar, like intro] Eagles, soaring in the sky  (this is Paradise, enjoy your life) Trees, growing way up high (in the sky,  way up high) Ooo oo oo ooo oo oo Paradise, enjoy your life Yaa ya ya yaa ya ya Paradise Lions, roaming on the plains (this is Paradise, enjoy your life) Flowers, blooming in the rain, (feel  the rain, smell the rain) [Guitar to end] Come learn more about Shared Visions Unlimited at https://sharedvisions.com/

    What is the Hub of Your Golden Publishing Sales Machine?

    Build authority, leave a legacy, and attract people to your Golden Offers with the Golden Publishing Sales Machine.  The main idea of the Golden Publishing Sales Machine is to use a wide range of media publishing to attract customers and clients to Your Golden Offer. One way to visualize this is as a wheel or sphere, with Your Golden Offer as the Hub in the center. Published content, such as your book, could be the Golden Offer in itself or a lead magnet for your Golden Offer. What Is Your Golden Offer? Every person has a different goal for publishing and a different focus for their marketing. For most authors, the book itself is often their Golden Offer. The book is not a lead magnet for anything else, as they are busy writing the next book. The book itself would be at the center of their Golden Publishing Sales Machine. For a Course Creator, the course or membership program would be the Golden Offer at the hub of their Golden Publishing Sales Machine. For you, it could be customers and clients. The Golden Offer for concerts and theatre productions is a ticket to the event. What is the goal of your marketing? How the Golden Publishing Sales Machine Works Start by visualizing a marketing wheel with your Golden Offer as the centre Hub. Here are some ways of attracting people to the offer: Blog Posts with Search Engine and AI Search OptimizationSocial Media PostsVideo and Audio PodcastsPublicity and/or Advertising on print, radio, online, and television media outlets.Links from books and other media. QR Codes work in print media and live presentations.NetworkingEmailThe Power Posting Strategy Here is a Power Posting Strategy I routinely use for my own offers and for clients. Here is how it would work for you: The first step is to compose a short article or post about your product or service. The post could be an overview, a case study, a client testimonial, a special offer, or any other content that builds awareness and attracts potential clients to you and your offers. I create the blog post with Search Engine Optimization (SEO) in mind and submit it to Google Search Console. Then I create variations for posting on social media platforms, including LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, and other relevant sites. The posts can be the whole article or a shortened version with links to the blog post. Then we send a variation of the post to your mailing list via email. Building an email list and creating email campaigns remain one of the most effective marketing strategies for achieving long-term success. A variation of this is to use StreamYard and a social media poster to publish a Video Podcast on LinkedIn, YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram. If appropriate, I will use Buzzsprout to syndicate the audio to podcast platforms such as Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeartRadio, Amazon Music, and more. Audio Podcasts will reach a different audience than Video Streams. The Golden Offer will appear in searches within hours. We can measure traffic to the Golden Offer. Sales are the main measure of effectiveness. Putting the Multi in Multimedia Publishing Whether your book is the Golden Offer, part of the Golden Offer, or a Lead Magnet for Your Golden Offer, publishing in multiple formats will increase your audience. Here are the many ways I publish books and courses for myself and clients: Printed Books and eBooks I currently use Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing and IngramSpark. I am looking at other options as well.Flipbooks Fabulous for giving away as Lead Magnets.Downloadable PDFs Perfect for Lead Magnets.Multimedia Experience Editions I use Kartra Memberships to collect audio, video, images, text, and more for books, courses, media collections, and family stories. GoHighLevel would work for this as well.Audio Books I am listening to audiobooks and will release an audiobook of my next book across many audiobook platforms.Blogging Website My All My Relations website at allmyrelationsbook.com is an experiment in releasing a book as a website. A blogging website is perfect if your goal is to have your content available to as many people as possible.Serial Publication by Email You could send out a chapter a day.I can help you publish your content on some or all of these platforms and implement landing pages and sales funnels. Discuss with Greg Dixon at https://www.gregdixon.net/calendar The Webinar Offer Hub For some of you, presenting your Golden Offer in a webinar could be the most effective way to convert people into clients, customers, or collaborators. There is a reason Tony Robbins, Kim Walsh Phillips, Dan Kennedy, Dave Dee, and many others present offers at live events and presentations. Your marketing mission then becomes attracting people to register for a webinar. Live is best, but evergreen webinars convert too. I can help you prepare and host webinars and other presentations. My Golden Publishing Sales Machine Offer Whether you are starting with little more than an idea or have a book or course completed, I can help you through your entire publishing and marketing journey. Get started for $388, plus $188 a month until cancelled. https://www.gregdixon.net/salesmachine Do You Have Questions?

    Healthy Approaches to Sleep and Energy ~ Healthy Conversations with Bonnie and Greg Dixon

    There are some general health indicators you can track and record every day in a notebook. Sleep concerns are important to pay attention to.  How many hours of sleep are you getting each night?  Do you have trouble falling asleep, staying asleep, or waking too early?  Do you wake feeling refreshed or exhausted?  Has someone noticed that you snore or stop breathing during the night?  These details can help uncover sleep disorders or lifestyle factors affecting your health. LifeWave has a few patches that can help, including Aeon and Silent Night. Low energy is another symptom worth tracking.  Do you feel tired all day, or do you hit a slump every afternoon?  Does your energy improve after eating, exercising, or getting outside?  Keeping notes may reveal patterns related to sleep, nutrition, hydration, stress, or activity. LifeWave patches, including Energy (Spark in Canada), can help. Your body gives you clues every day.  By writing them down, you become an active partner in your own health care.  A simple notebook, calendar, or phone app can make all the difference. The better the information you bring, the better equipped your health care professional will be to help you find the right solution. Contact Bonnie to discuss a range of activities and products that can help. https://healthywealthycamper.com/ Bonnie and Greg Dixon Healthy Wealthy Camper Come learn more about Shared Visions Unlimited at https://sharedvisions.com/
