Alan R. Bechtold has been writing and publishing since the age of eight, and is the best-selling author of “Will Work for Fun: 3 Simple Steps for Turning Any Hobby or Interest Into Cash”. He has also self-published countless books, reports and courses, mostly focusing on publishing for profit and utilizing what you publish as marketing to grow business revenues. An accomplished professional speaker, Alan has also been both host and guest on hundreds of radio shows, podcasts, teleseminars and Webinars. He started publishing profitably online before there was a World Wide Web, syndicating articles and news to operators of the local dial-up computer bulletin board operators.
As Founding Member and managing editor at LifePath Books, Alan helps busy executives and professionals who would most benefit from publishing a book get the job done, beginning to end. He’s also the CEO of Inkubator Media, publishers of high quality new media featuring a broad variety of the rising stars publishing today. Inkubator provides a unique approach combining self-publishing and “traditional” publishing, which allows authors to work directly with a publisher and editor to create your own self-published works, and receive mastermind training. Submitting them for publication by Inkubator Media includes full assistance polishing and unlimited opportunities to re-submit work. Once accepted and published, authors earn 70% of all proceeds.
Ross Goldberg is a best selling author who has released dozens of training programs, and helped thousands of internet entrepreneurs get more leads from the web. A former gang leader and disabled army veteran who has had two near-death experiences, he turned his life around when he discovered that he could make money online. He started by selling on eBay, but decided after his first year online that he would be better suited to helping others succeed. He now focuses on creating info products and software to help people build their own businesses.
Ross can attest that reputation is everything, and that honor and integrity makes a big difference in achieving success. Establishing an online reputation includes SEO, which Ross is a master at. These days it also includes social media, blogging, and other ways that we present ourselves online. And if false rumors or accusations appear, we need to know how to deal with it effectively. But reputation is both seen and unseen. Creating a fake persona no longer flies… it’s about being congruent, genuine and transparent with and about ourselves, and accepting the karma that comes with our choices.

Thomas Mangum
For well over a decade, Thomas Mangum has been quietly making connections that have yielded millions for individuals and organizations looking to create a greater impact with their products, services and causes. That means strategic partnerships, clients and ultimately making an impact in lives.

His motto is “Skip the small talk and move directly to the Large Talk”, which is where the conversation really starts. The reality is most people completely screw up professional networking and wonder why it never feels right but they go through the motions of what they think they “have to” do anyway. That leads to even more resentment of the process. Through Learn To Connect NOW! and Becoming a Masterful Networker, Thomas is finally showing others exactly what he’s doing to cultivate connection, being noticed in a sea of noise and most importantly be remembered without compromising what he values most… intimate connection.

Perry Marshall
Perry Marshall is best known as the web’s foremost authority on pay-per-click marketing, and the author of The Definitive Guide to Google AdWords. But his latest book, which took 10 years of research to complete, is 80/20 Sales and Marketing.
Perry says the greatest secret to success is MASTERY of the 80/20 principle, because when you know how to walk into any situation and identify the 80/20’s, you can solve almost ANY money problem… any traffic problem… any conversion problem.
He says most people THINK they understand 80/20, but not one person in 1,000 actually does. And knowing the 80/20 principle allows you to fix your own business, or fix other peoples’ businesses. It has levers within levers, so that 1% changes can trigger 50% profits.
If you’re tired of trying stuff, trying stuff, trying stuff and never getting off the treadmill, this could be your ticket to success.
