1. How to Turn an Idea into $100,000
Do you ever wonder why some people seem to get all the lucky breaks in business while others struggle to barely get by? They seem to be in the right place at the right time.
Fact is, maybe they’re not at the right place at the right time; maybe they just know how to make things “happen.”
As a business advisor I often see people begin and end a business before they have given it a chance to grow. For some reason, they seem to think that all they have to do is have a product or service to sell and the rest magically takes care of itself.

(2), the right PR really CAN alter individual perception and lead to changed behaviors that help you succeed!
