Wow - what a great prize for you!

Congratulations!!

Congrats Deck!

Darn for me, I kept thinking, pick me, pick me, I am close, I could have driven over (assuming your actually in Birmingham!) for my 15 minutes and I would even have bought the dip!

Congratulations Deck.

It would be great to post your feedback on the counseling session and its effects on your business.

What an opportunity!

 Thanks to everyone for the "Congrats" and I will follow up and let you know how things go with the session.

 This could not have come at a better time for me. I just hit the "Reset button" of life at 45 and it`s the perfect time to get a fresh, knowledgeable perspective.

 As I mentioned to Joel, I have already had many good things happen in the short time I have been part of SUN. I have enjoyed reading all the great information, gotten inspiration from others experiences, and I hope to add some insights to the forums myself. Being on SUN Radio was a fun experience where I not only learned some helpful Ideas, I may actually learn what a "Pod Cast" is so I can impress the kids.

 This Internet community allows us all to see good business models and skip some of the business mistakes that others are willing to share. I know that I could contribute to Both ends of the spectrum.

 Wish I had this type of support 15 years ago when I started my first business! Thanks to the Sloan Brothers we can all see that there are many others with our common dream.

 Thanks Again!

 A follow up after the session.

 I was in an interview process and delayed my session for a while since my life circumstances were at a changing point.

 I did get the job and will be continuing the business as well.... so balance was the focus of my questions. Some of the important things to come out of the session were organizational ideas and promotional ideas to keep the business on track. I also had questions on how to keep a professional online "face" while allowing me to be focused on the day job when "On the clock". Connections to community members that can also help advise completed the experience.

 As with any "Coaching" some were simply "Ah Hah!" Ideas and some will require additional work and research on my part.

 This was a great experience! Every session will be individual I`m sure so know what you want to ask and let them know beforehand. That way you get the most out of your time.

 Thanks to everyone involved, especially Joel and Rich for making it happen. Again, It was a great experience for me.

 BTW, my family thanks you too. At least for 15 minutes I had someone else to talk to about business aspirations! ;^)
