Playing with a new (to me) perspective on business.
Last week I heard via twitter of an Old-World SalesMan and his seminars and dvds on the fine art of money making.
Watch! he is out for your money
The guy is Dan Kennedy; “pyramidal scheme” comes to my mind looking to his offerings. And yet, I’m not myself a experienced salesmen or money-maker, I can learn something.
A big obstacle to absorb Kennedy’s teachings is his philosophy towards business, money, life, and responsability. Money is paramount and getting it the entrepreneur’s only responsability, everything else is optional or an obstacle. I know: old-fashioned, simple, and doomed to failure in the long run; but maybe it works. I’m calling it marauder ethos and will try to embrace as much of it as possible without losing my own perspective. Couldn’t embrace a corporate or liberal ethos, Marauder Ethos sounds fancier.
I want to build my business around local, sustainable communities, with responsability towards such communities. And here’s the point, there is more money outside of those communities-to-be; money ready for the taken in Kennedy’s terms.
So I will apply that all-for-the-money marauder to the outsiders and use money, experience, and energy to foster the grow of sustainable communities and natural enterprises.
