Utah 100

Just when I was getting on track to blog daily I went to Chicago. The internet was down at the hotel the three days I was there. That is just an excuse, so lets focus on the result.

Engenuity Salt Lake was awarded the number 19th slot for fastest growing company in Utah over the last five years. Greg Blackbourn, my business partner in Engenuity SLC, and many of the advisors attended a luncheon and also had a chance to meet the governor of Utah. I handed Governor Huntsman a copy of Killing Sacred Cows and he committed to reading it.

There is more going on now than ever. I plan on some better updates and insights by this weekend.

Radio, National Impact and Production

Tonight I will appear as a guest on the Kate Delaney show. It is a nationally syndicated radio program that airs at different times throughout the nation. For people in Utah I belive it will be on KSL radio at around 12:15.

It was a fun day working on licensing or expansion for The Strategic CFO and also for Foundations Insurance. It is moving much quicker than I had anticipated and will provide an opportunity for people to utilize and license these programs for anywhere in the US.

Creating systems and simplicity is a great way to be productive. In the past few weeks I worked on creating clarity so that I can move quickly with the various projects that I have going on. I have much to read and to still create in just the next week, but I am moving at a rate that I have more content and products coming out in one month than I have ever had come out over an entire year. It is fun and energizing.

The Accredited Network, Soul Purpose FastTrack, & Discovery

It was a week of tremendous activity since last Monday. Well….everywhere but in this blog. I am back in the saddle when it comes to writing and updated the blog this week. Thanks for your patience.

This Friday we had our first public Accredited Network event with the new format. In the morning session, The Enlightenment, we heard from the Business Blueprint. This is the company that spends at least one day a month with me to increase the value and experience of my companies.

In the afternoon we had a roundtable with the expert advisors in the Accredited Network. This allowed for the participants in the day to learn in more intimate groups and personalize their experience.

Over the weekend, we had a retreat with The Prosperity Paradigm. This is the company that runs the Soul Purpose FastTrack. You may have heard of this FastTrack referred to Spiritual or Transformation FastTrack, but it is now officially renamed. The purpose of the FastTrack is for people to discover their Soul Purpose in one year or less.

Today, I am doing a Discovery session with the potential licensees and licensees of the Financial FastTrack. Here we spend a day to delve into the entire program and create the context for the advisors to thrive.

Plenty going on. Great things are happening.

Mission Driven Forum

Today I led a Mission Driven Forum call with Steve D’Annunzio. This is a call where we have people in the financial services arena on a conference call where we discuss principles and teach advisors to elevate their business. I am excited for this weekend where all the partners in The Prosperity Paradigm will use the same things we teach these participants to do in their practice to expand ours. The Prosperity Paradigm is a company that facilitates The Mission Driven Forum and also the Spiritual FastTrack.

We will have a retreat this weekend to elevate the value proposition of the company and to refine the back stage operations of the firm. I am using some forms that I created for the next Mental FastTrack that begins Nov. 2 to make this retreat as productive as possible. It will allow for accountability, timelines and to breakdown and brainstorm the projects that we are working on.

Oh, one more thing, Engenuity made the Utah 100. Today the DVD that Engenuity created to introduce the advisors, managers, and Accredited Network was delivered to the office. It is a great way for everyone to be introduced to the philosophy and people that are behind Engenuity Salt Lake. If you would like a copy, send me an e-mail. Garrett@freedomfasttrack.com

Plenty going on!

College FastTrack, Content, and Membership

I am excited because of a great meeting Thursday. Josh, one of the participants in Mental FastTrack and absolute stud, brought an amazing idea that we will launch on the 24th of October at the University of Utah. Details will come, but I wanted to mention it because Josh invented this program and then expanded it with the Idea Optimizer (a model I created for my business and that was shared in the Mental FastTrack). It will be great to be part of this program and to demonstrate to people in college the possibilities of economic independence and following ones Soul Purpose.

Friday was also a great day as I spent some personal time with the Engenuity advisors and the my new writer Rebecca. I was able to refine and create content for the Producer Power Hour web-site and to create some of the member benefits that will be starting this week. Working on content is one of my favorite activities, especially where I am able to convey a message to someone that captures and perfects the idea. Having it in writing allows for it to live past the moment that it is spoken. With the purpose of the Producer Power Hour it also is content that is more than just information, it is in a system, that when followed leads to transformation.

The features of the Producer Power Hour include the Hour of Power each month. I spoke at the kickoff and then attendees joined mastermind groups afterward. The next two speakers are: Steve D’Annunzio in November and Roberto Monaco in December.

Producer Power Hour Launch

Last night we began the Producer Power Hour membership with an event. This is a monthly event where we videocast a featured speaker- we call it the Hour of Power. After the speaker there is a matermind session that takes place. This allows for everyone to personalize the message from the Hour of Power. An association with others that are integrating and implementing a Producer Power Hour allows for declaration, renewed energy, a forum or value exchange, and a sounding board for each individual to cultivate and share experiences.

Most memberships that I see are dedicated to information delivery. What makes this unique is that it is built upon a formula for results. The acronym for this formula is
P
E
I
W
O
C
The P stands for Process. To have information become transformational there must be a process or system for it to be implemented. The Producer Power Hour is a daily system that when consistently used will bring clarity and energy. Ultimately it provides favorable conditions for people to discover their Soul Purpose.

The E is for Education. We don’t know what we don’t know and there are basically three ways of discovery. Through pain if we didn’t know and due to the lack of knowing we find ourselves in a situation where we are confroted directly with experience. I could give millions of examples here, but hopefully you get the picture. We can have a positive experience or what someone might say “fall into it”. That would be the second, unintentional way. Finally, we can discover through proactive education. Education is the key to unlocking our potential and bringing our Human Life Value where we can recognize it.

The I is for Insight. As we are educated, we have the opportuntity to look into our lives and this creates a personal awareness. This can illuminate what the education means to us.

W is for wealth. Everyone has the ingredients of Soul Purpose already. Most don’t recognize it because they have an improper understanding of wealth and believe it is outside of them or something given to them. When money is not the reason or excuse for doing or not doing anything then people can focus on how to truely create value and live Soul Purpose. They can have confidence and an unshakeable belief in the value they offer.

O is for Opportunity. When one can see the world through the eyes of abundance it is possible to recognize opportunity that has always been invisible before.

C is for Capitalize. With all other areas of this formula one knows how to take action. This action is now consistent with their Human Life Value and Soul Purpose. Not only are they producing more than they consume, they are passoinate and confident about life.

This is the Producer Power Hour.

Radio and Media

Right now there is a state of transistion with the radio. Yesterday we did our inaugural show on am1400, but the reception was poor in Salt Lake and non-exisitent further north. We are not going to do the radio today, instead we will be finalizing a deal with another station locally and working out the details on syndication for a business network.

It is interesting to see all of the media projects that my organizations have going on. We are finalizing a radio and tv studio on the second floor of the building. This will be great to have for videocasts and even to broadcast the radio show.

All day yesterday and today I am spending time with a book promoter and literary agent. We are improving the reach of the book and the appeal to the different types of readers. Right now we are looking to do 100,000 copies of the book for the launch in June. I will be talking to a PR firm that specializes in book launches, architects to create flow for the different web-sites that I have, and I do have an editor that will be doing a redesign of the book cover, editing, and selling the book to different retail stores.

There should be a new radio station shortly, stay tuned (to my blog that is).

Quick Notes

Today and tomorrow I meet with Michael Drew, a book promoter, to develop the marketing plan to take Killing Sacred Cows to the bestseller lists.

I will be on am1400 at 8-9 with FastTrack Radio starting today.

The annual Rock Star Party was this weekend. There was a live band, limos, red carpet, and plenty of costumes.

Another week filled with plenty of opportunity, projects and ultimately, our membership launch on Wed. night.
