    The Marketing Power of Social Proof - Testimonials Sell
    Offer proof to your prospects. Testimonials are one of the most powerful and cost effective selling tools you can implement in your arsenal of marketing. Why? Because you are offering social proof to your prospects from their peers attesting that your services/products actually work. If you say you are good at what you do, it's self serving. But, if others say you are good...it's credible.Providing testimonials from current and prior customers of their actual problem and the specific results from your company enhances your company's credibility. It's not enough to say that you solve problems - you have to show your prospects the direct results of other people. Testimonials offer proof that you are the real deal.People receive a lot of information and they are often skeptical. But, they will be more inclined to buy from you if you show examples of their peers who have achieved positive results. An effective testimonial is filled with specific

    e-Currency Exchange - What You Need to Know Before Making any Decisions
    How do I make money in E-Currency Exchange?In brief, You profit by providing the means for others to exchange these different e-currencies for a fee. You do not speculate in currencies' fluctuations (although you can). Just as there are fees for using normal bank credit or debit cards, there are fees for using an e-currency exchange service. This is how you make money! You may think of it in terms of banking at a local bank. You deposit money into your savings account and the bank uses "your" funds to give to others in the form of loans for a house, a car etc. For depositing your money and allowing the bank to use that money the bank will in turn give you at best 1 - 4% interest over a WHOLE year (365 days).At the same time, with e-currency exchange your money is deposited into a specific exchange account from where certain merchants can perform currency exchanges online within 24 hours sessions for others.

    ASSET PROTECTION DEFINED

    Asset protection is the concept of protecting and preserving one’s assets from frivolous, illogical, ill-motivated, and more often than not, devastating catastrophic claims against your wealth, designed to destroy your current and future lifestyle. In short, they want what you've got and they want to inflict maximum pain.

    ASSET PROTECTION HAS TWO PRIMARY GOALS:

    1. To make the enforcement of judgments against your protected assets virtually impossible, and
    2. To allow the "owner" of protected assets to retain engineered "control" over his assets

    HOW GOOD ASSET PROTECTION CAN PROTECT YOUR PRIVACY

    According the U.S Secret Service, identity theft is the fastest growing financial crime in America (source: the U.S. Secret Service). There are literally hundreds of ways to protect your assets. Some are just common sense. Don’t flash your money around; don’t talk too much at parties, etc.

    By implementing a properly crafted asset protection plan, your creditor will have to jump through several hoops, before he even finds your money. Contingent-fee lawyer of what I like to call predators will want an easier target. So those that do nothing to protect their identity and their assets are easy targets.

    There are approximately 950,000 lawyers. Just go through your own yellow pages. Most of them live on what they can squeeze out of you. Just don’t become a statistic. Learn from other people's mistakes. There are literally thousands of cases both famous and not so famous people who have learned this the hard way. Learn how to become every contingency-fee lawyer's nightmare.

    HOW A CONTINGENT-FEE LAWYER CAN GET YOUR ASSETS

    The Internet is spyware on steroids and can be used as invisible wealth snatchers. Information collection about you, your associates, your family, your finances has been compromised by the enhancement of data gathering technology through the internet.

    How "paranoid" are you? How "paranoid" should you be? The problem is not the merchants collecting data about your spending habits. The problem is who's collecting the data without your knowledge and for what purpose are they collecting this private information?

    A GOOD ASSET PROTECTION PLAN WILL:

    - Protect your current and future lifestyle - Discourage litigation and promote settlements, in your favor - Keep the ownership of your assets confidential and hard to find - Eliminate the need of prenuptial agreements - Internationalize your investments as a hedge against the unexpected surprises - Spread out your control over your most valuable assets - Help you in getting a fresh start, if you ever became insolvent in any of your other assets - Hedge against potential political, economic, and personal instability

    Open A Dollar Store - No Merchandise Equals No Sales
    Those who open a dollar store soon find that it is a constant challenge to keep every type of merchandise always in-stock. In some cases there are merchandise availability problems. In others it is a matter of decisions about what to buy and when to buy it. In still others it is simply that there was an unusually high number of purchases.No matter what the cause, when you open a dollar store you are responsible for insuring that your store is always stocked. To make sales, there must be merchandise. Even more important is that the merchandise must be what the customers want when they come to the store. If you fail to have the right items in stock, customers will go elsewhere to buy.Efforts can be made to disguise the shortages by placing some other items in their location. However, customers will know that you are out of the items that they need. Daily needs such as household cleaners, personal care products and paper goods must always be in

    I always state use "Good" planning NOT "Secrecy." Rely on "Law" NOT "Secrecy." What I mean is that one of your goals is to use full disclosure with the IRS. There is nothing illegal regarding the protecting of your assets and using prudent wealth preservation strategies.

    1**Watch out for Foreign and Offshore Scams & Practitioners**

    There’s a thriving industry of "offshore practitioners" advising IRS definition of "U.S. Person" to set-up offshore bank accounts and other financial structures thinking that they have "just become NON-U.S. Taxable." They persuade the U.S. Persons to trust the "Iron-Clad" secrecy laws of the jurisdiction and not to report ownership of their funds or structures to the Internal Revenue Service and other agencies. This is pure and simple tax fraud and gets many U.S. Persons in trouble.

    WARNING: The complexities of the U.S. laws require many tax reporting and other various reporting requirements. Protect yourself, make absolutely sure that you seek competent professional expert legal, accounting, and tax advice before you consider implementing your foreign asset protection plan. Contact Estate Street Partners and get the facts for proper U.S. reporting procedures.
