I am in Costa Rica right now putting the final touches on my next Round Table featuring Zig Ziglar live and in-person. The event will be held October 8^th, 9^th, and 10^th. Registration details will be available soon.   I can’t help but be so grateful for the amazing friends I have. I arrived in San Jose and was picked up by my buddy Carlos Avendano, who graciously brought me to where I needed to be (about 3 hours away).  

Carlos has been a family friend for many years and used to work as a technician at my cleaning company and eventually went on to open his own in Costa Rica. He is doing an OUTSTANDING job building his business! Great job Carlos!!!  My friend David Frey, who is an AMAZING marketer arranged a rental house for me right next to his (he took the summer off with his family and took them to Costa Rica). His family has treated me like a king and we have been on ATVs, Horseback Riding and the whole bit. At night he pours out his marketing wisdom to me.  

I have learned so MUCH about marketing. But more than that, I am reminded of how great it is to have great friends.  By the way, Dave will be speaking at my next Round Table. If you want to learn how to get all the referrals you can handle, be there.

Hello from Paradise!  I am in Destin (again!) with my wife Denise and my son Christian. While down here on the beach, I have been doing my Referral Marketing from my desktop using “The Greatest Marketing Tool EVER Created!”  

What is that tool?  

Send Out Cards 

From the Send Out Cards website and choose from over 13,000 cards and they will PRINT the card and MAIL it for you! (this is NOT an e-mail card). Imagine being able to send a personalized greeting card for less than a dollar! When you go to the store, you wait in line to pay 3 bucks.  

Personalized, heart felt greeting cards are a wonderful way to stay in touch with friends, family, clients, and prospects.  

Send Out Cards has several hand writing fonts that look real. Plus, you can even upload your own hand writing!  

Use your OWN picture…  

You can upload ANY picture from your computer and put it inside the card. Not only that, you can even make your own card from your picture!  

How ‘bout a Starbucks Card?  You can even insert a gift card…

Choose from American Express, Starbucks, Home Depot, Restaurants and more.

Now you can send a personalized greeting card and a gift card for a birthday or occasion.  

If that isn’t enough, you can include chocolates, brownies, cookies, even books with your order!  

Imagine sending one of your important clients a personalized greeting card and some brownies right from your computer!  Post Cards too.

Want to test some post cards without investing in printing the “minimum” quantity? No problem. For as low as 31 cents plus postage, you can send a full color post card. Just one if you like.  

It gets even better…  You can upload an entire list of contacts, and you can do “funnels” or “campaigns”. Say you want each of your new clients to get a sequence of pre-planned cards – maybe a Thank You Card first, then a Referral Card, then a Mini-Newsletter.  Just drop a contact in that Campaign and the system will do the rest!  

Here’s the best part… Send Out Cards can be a powerful way to generate another stream of income. When others use Send Out Cards because of you, you make MONEY!  

Your referral contacts and business associates will LOVE Send Out Cards!  Try Send Out Cards for FREE! I have set aside a few Gift Accounts for those who read my Blog.
