As we begin a New Year, you may have read or heard about having an ‘attitude of gratitude’ and how beneficial it can be to your personal well-being. Many people are aware of the importance of living a life of gratitude, but don’t realize the great impact that it can have on one’s career and business! We live in a society, and especially a business culture, of chronic under-appreciation. To be just a little bit thoughtful, grateful and appreciative will certainly make you stand out from the crowd. Many professionals and businesspeople have become accustomed to working a thankless job or running a thankless business. Believe it or not, by being intentionally grateful, you can change that for the people you do business with. Let gratitude become an integral part of your entrepreneurial journey, and watch as it transforms your mindset, propels your business forward, and unlocks the growth and abundance you desire. Embrace gratitude today and fuel your business growth like never before. “Gratitude is the healthies

On January 1, 2024 a new reporting requirement goes into effect that will require millions of small businesses to file a Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) Report with the U.S. Department of Treasury’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN). In 2021 Congress imposed this requirement in a statute called the Corporate Transparency Act. Every small business owner needs to know about this new reporting requirement as non-compliance can result in severe penalties, yet the realty is the overwhelming majority of small businesses either have no idea what the CTA is or have no idea if they’ll be required to report. This massive lack of understanding is a huge red flag. I must warn you that there are already scammers out there trying to solicit information from individuals and entities who may be subject to reporting requirements requesting that you click on a URL or scan a QR code. These e-mails and letters are fraudulent and please do not respond to these fraudulent messages or click on any links. Thi

Fred Gleeck has been marketing and selling information for over 35 years, beginning with shipping audio and video cassettes around the country, then moving online in the mid-90s. For many years he was ranked #1 on Google for the keywords “information marketing” and “information products”. After many years of selling people a package of materials from the stage both at his own and other people’s events, and frustrated that people weren’t implementing what he was teaching, Fred switched up his model. He began doing one-week bootcamps where he would give people a fully built system they could use, but still no one was implementing what he taught them. In December of 2009, a voice over artist named Bill DeWees attended the bootcamp and after spending a week together, Fred and Bill decided to become partners, and created a training company to show people how to start and build a voice over business which became the largest and most successful voiceover training company in the world. Fred realized he had a new
