Charity Raffle Added To The Next Two Meetups

Recently, I was approached by a rep from MDA to participate in their Lock-Up fundraiser. I’ve been approached before and have been interested, but never had time to actually do it.

This time I said, “what the heck” and decided to go for it. My lock up date is September 26th.

But, I decided to make things interesting….

Why not add in a raffle and donate the raffle earnings to my “bail”?

So, that’s what I’m going to do. At the Elsa’s meetup on the 21st and the Heather’s meetup in September, I will be raffling off two free passes to my Mr. Leads Power Networking Workshop (separate drawings). I’ve also reached out to other business people who will also be adding items to the raffle as well.

I have two different ways you can buy a raffle ticket. One way is by making an online donation on my fundraising page which you can access by clicking here.

Additionally, I’ll be accepting cash raffle entries at the meetup.

Raffle tickets are just $5 each. Pretty good deal, wouldn’t you say? $5 to potentially win a $150 ticket that will help you substantially grow your business and help out MDA in the process. What a deal!

For the online entries, please make your donation public by checking the “make public” box when you check out online, so I’ll know how many raffle tickets to issue you at the meetup.

If you are a winner of the raffle, you can attend the workshop the next day, August 22nd from 2-5 pm at Indiana Wesleyan. Or if you want to wait, I also recently added workshops on September 25th and October 24th. Both are also 2-5 p.m. at Indiana Wesleyan. The ticket sale website, event description and testimonials are at www.MrLeadsLive.com.

You will need to be present to win, so I look forward to seeing you at the meetup and good luck to you!

Mr. Leads Power Networking Workshop

Business owners and sales professionals, are you tired of cold calls that go nowhere?

Are you frustrated because you can’t get important people to listen to you?

Does it seem like you are doing a lot of networking, but not enough referring?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, I would like to invite you to attend the Mr. Leads Power Networking Workshop.

This is going to be to take your LinkedIn knowledge to all new heights. LinkedIn can be a very powerful tool, especially when you combine it with traditional networking. I want to show you step by step how to be an LinkedIn ninja.

This will be done via computer on projector and I’ll show you my actual LinkedIn account and exactly what I do daily in my LinkedIn activities. All questions will be answered and nothing will be held back. Mr. Leads will tell you everything you ever wanted to know about LinkedIn and many things you had no idea you could do on LinkedIn.

Depending on the type of learner you are, you may want to bring your laptop to follow along. A workbook will be provided.

If you are in sales or are a small business owner, you owe it to yourself to understand the ins and outs on LinkedIn. It can make or break your career.

So, fire the telemarketer (you don’t need him after this!) and check this page on Friday July 27th for the sign up link.

The class is affordably priced at $150 and some discounts will be available for selected networking group members and other partners. More details to come on the sale date.

The class will be held on August 8th from 2:00-5:00 pm at Indiana Weslayan. Once that class sells out, more dates will be added.

Prerequisites: This class is NOT for LinkedIn newbies. You should have an active LinkedIn account with 50 connections or more and a basic knowledge of networking.

DaytonPulse.com has partnered up with DaytonLocal.com to improve the user experience

I am pleased to announce that we have partnered with DaytonLocal.com to improve the user experience for users of both sites. For those of you that are not familiar with DaytonLocal.com, they are one of the largest sites in the Dayton area (possibly the very largest) that’s not owned by corporate media.

As part of our marketing agreement, you are going to be seeing some major changes and opportunities coming soon to DaytonPulse.com. Here are some of the changes and opportunities:

  1. DaytonPulse.comĀ  is offering a special discount on all DaytonLocal.com advertising you purchase. Simply tell Chris that you want the DaytonPulse.com special preferred ad pricing. This is effective immediately.
  2. DaytonPulse.com will only be showing event listings of our own events and personal appearances of Mr. Leads. All other events will be redirected to DaytonLocal.com which will result in a much better user experience for both sites
  3. We will be changing our business directory to a DaytonLocal.com co-branded directory
  4. We are going to be eliminating our guest blogging program. Our guest bloggers are highly encouraged to make arrangements with DaytonLocal.com for guest blogging opportunities. The DaytonPulse.com blog will convert into the personal blog of Mr. Leads and for our announcements.

We are quite pleased to find a partner who supports our local small business community. Chris James, founder of DaytonLocal.com is highly interested in hearing from us about the following:

  1. Your events
  2. Your blog posts and stories, both B2C and B2B (may pay for content in some cases)
  3. Your advertiser referrals (will pay commissions)

If you are interested in any of the opportunities listed above. Please contact Chris through our LinkedIn group.

I’m convinced that after you see these changes that you will enjoy the new and improved user experience. In a related story, I’m going to be rebranding my personal SEO/internet marketing website, Dayton SEO Services into Mr-Leads.com since I offer a lot more than just SEO these days.

Thanks everyone for your support in this transition.
