Episode Details

I promised this week would be about the most important subject I've ever covered. That subject is… you. We just completed our first ever Annual Reader/Listener Survey for this site (and podcast). Boy, did we get some interesting and surprising results in that survey…  and it's all about you.

I also received a ton of comments and questions. Many of them flattering, some of them not so much. On this weeks podcast I'm sharing the good, the bad, and the ugly. Also on today's episode…

• December's comment contest winners.
• Status of the updated copywriting course.
• Gadget recommendation: the perfect digital camera.
• Does teaching "radical grace" give people license to sin?
• Would you like to be in a mastermind with me?
• And the always award-winning, much much more.

Announcements:

• The winners of access to the updated copywriting course are:
  •  Dan Black (37)
  •  Eric Dingler (7)
  •  Todd Liles (7)
  •  Paul Jolicoeur (6)
  •  Adam Collier (4)
• The copywriting course itself is going to be released a bit later than originally planned. Stay tuned to find out why.
• Looking for a copywriting gig? Send me a one sheet "sales letter" on why you would be a perfect copywriter for me to hire. 800 words maximum. Also send along any samples you think would convince me you are brilliant. Make the subject line of your email say only: "Blue Fondue". Send that email to the address I provided in the podcast, and listen to the podcast audio for instructions about what happens next. If you email me with questions, I have not listened to the podcast instructions, I won't be able to answer you.
• Starting next week, every person who submits an audio question for the podcast will receive a free gift (if, and only if, we use your question on the podcast). Click here to submit your audio question.
• "Permission to Prosper" event originally scheduled for April has been postponed… Mainly because I haven't finished the companion book yet! We will update you soon.
• Meanwhile, if you would be interested in the possible one-day mastermind with me and 11 other people, where we make radical progress in your business… And if you're not just "interested" but you already know you want to do it,  fill in this form. If it looks like you would be a good fit, I will call you myself.  (If you just want the "details", listen to the podcast. I explain all the "details".)

Tip Of The Week 

As you may know, I have taken a deep interest in digital photography. After extensive research, reading many reviews, and looking at many, many cameras, I settled on the Sony NEX-7. the main reasons I decided on this camera are:
