A Discount Program For the Successful Entrepreneur...and the Wannabee!

Cost Concerns of an Entrepreneur

A few years ago when I was preparing to leave my position as an employee of a Fortune 500 company, one of my biggest concerns about being an entrepreneur was how I was going to keep my costs and expenses down as I got my own company started.  There are so many things to consider that you don't even think or know about until you go through the process; but one of the most important costs for any entrepreneur to consider is how much to spend on marketing and advertising to promote your business.  We live in the computer or digital "information age" and there are many ways for an entrepreneur to spread the word about a business online; however, having high quality business cards to give to clients and prospects is still a very effective and cost-efficient way for an entrepreneur to promote her/his business.

I said, "HIGH QUALITY!"

For some reason, many people think that just having a business card is sufficient.  It's not. A business card is a professional representation of you, and you should treat it as such.  It is your lasting impression for the person you give it to; and it will be your first impression for anyone that receives your business card without meeting you.  This is important for everyone to pay attention to and understand, especially an entrepreneur.


"Can't I get business cards for free?"
Now of course you are going to have to pay if you want high quality products, including business cards.  There are some companies that advertise "free business cards" and most of them, if not all, will give you free business cards that are very low-quality.  In fact, many of them will also put their own company logo on your free cards unless you pay for their "upgrades."  That's where the cost starts to add up.  Once you finish "upgrading" your cards by choosing higher quality card stock and adding color, your picture or company logo, custom lettering, etc. the price for your business cards is now far from free!  Until recently, I was primarily using a very well-known company that advertises free or low-cost "premium" business cards, but by the time I finished customizing and upgrading my cards to the quality I felt comfortable with being a professional representation of me as an entrepreneur, those cards became very pricey.  In fact, if I were to order those cards right now I would pay $80.97 (before shipping & handling) for 1000 business cards and that price includes a 50% discount according to the shopping cart.  Fortunately, I've found a better option that provides discounts on high quality business cards (and other printed products) at a lower price that every entrepreneur can take advantage of for FREE.

Success tip for a new entrepreneur: Never pass up an opportunity to get higher quality marketing at a lower price.  You not only save money on the front end by paying less, but you also make more money on the back end because you are using higher quality marketing to promote your business.



A FREE Discount Program for the Entrepreneur

ViralPrint is a discount program focused on providing higher quality business cards and other printed products at lower prices.  It's FREE to join and will take you less than one minute to sign up as a member.  Once you become a member, you will receive up to 70% on business cards and other printed products that you order through ViralPrint.  To put it into perspective for you, I only pay $28 through ViralPrint for the same 1000 cards I previously mentioned that I would have to pay $80.97 for from that other company.  Additionally, my ViralPrint cards are of a much higher quality (16 point card stack, UV gloss or Matte coating, full color double-sided, etc.) and the standard turnaround time from order to shipment is only a week (14 days is standard for the other company).  Anyone can sign-up and take advantage of this discount program, and if you are an entrepreneur building your brand and your business you can't afford to delay.  Visit http://viralprint.com, click "sign-up now," and enter antoniomoore for the Parent Affiliate.  It will take you less than a minute.

But There's More....

Being a member of ViralPrint not only allows you to save money on higher quality business cards and other printed products (drop/sizzle cards, banners, car door magnets, bookmarks, brochures, envelopes, flyers, post cards, rack cards, stickers, tear-off cards, yard signs, carbonless forms, etc.), but it also provides you with a simple way to make money as well.

What entrepreneur doesn't like a simple way to make money?

ViralPrint has a built in Affiliate Referral Marketing compensation plan or "ARM," that will pay you just for telling others how you save money by purchasing your business cards and other printed products through ViralPrint.  It's that simple.  Once you go to http://viralprint.com and sign-up (Parent Affiliate: antoniomoore) as a member (FREE) you not only become eligible for the great discounts, but you also become eligible for the ARM.  Now, whether you decide to just take advantage of the great discounts or focus on trying to make money with ViralPrint is totally up to you.  If you decide on the latter, I will help you make money building a ViralPrint business starting with how to earn a $9K+ Bonus which you are eligible for just by taking action NOW while we are still in pre-launch.  Again, visit http://viralprint.com and sign-up FREE (Parent Affiliate: antoniomoore).


As an entrepreneur and/or business person you should be involved in networking and connecting with people.  Even if you primarily network online, business cards are still beneficial for every entrepreneur and business person because you never know when and where you may meet your next client.  Having high quality business cards will allow you to always be ready to share your business in a professional manner, and every entrepreneur knows that not being ready when opportunities present themselves can put you on the fast track to failing in your business.

So You Want To Be A Successful Entrepreneur?

Coach's Advice Fit for an Entrepreneur


When I was in college, I had a basketball coach that gave me some very sound advice about being an entrepreneur...although I didn't realize it until years later .  He told me that if someone ever asked me if I was a good basketball player, to look them straight in the eye and say "yes, better than most."  Now that isn't an exact quote and I'm sure he used much more "colorful" language than that before he proceeded to explain how I earned the right to give such an answer.  Simply put, I had taken the time to invest in myself and become the best that I could be.  I had put in the hours at the gym working on the fundamentals of dribbling, passing, and shooting.  I had put countless hours into studying film and doing research to better understand the game.  I was a team captain, so I also put in the time to become the best leader I could be by attending leadership workshops and training in order to learn from other leaders as well.  My coach told me to be "unapologetic" for my success and "unsympathetic" to those who are unwilling to put in the necessary work to succeed.  Now as a successful entrepreneur, I think about that story and share it because I believe that it's good advice for any entrepreneur who is serious about building a successful business.

SO WHAT IS AN ENTREPRENEUR?


There are many definitions of "entrepreneur" floating around, but one of the core principles I believe that all successful entrepreneurs have is that we "accept full responsibility for our outcomes."  While there are many reasons for someone to pursue becoming an entrepreneur, I have found that a major reason why many are unsuccessful stems from their unwillingness to take full responsibility.  Successful entrepreneurs believe that we determine our success by how we handle our business and respond to various events and circumstances that happen in life that we may or may not have any control over.  We have a positive attitude and our mindset is that no condition, circumstance, person, etc. will determine our success.  We don't place blame, make excuses, or whine when things don't go our way; we simply assess the situation, make an adjustment, and keep moving forward.

If You Are Really Serious About Being a Successful Entrepreneur...

I am going to recommend a few programs that will help you be successful regardless of what type of entrepreneur you are.  Whether you are building your business online or offline, the key to your success is directly tied to the work you put in to make yourself the best you can be.  You must have the proper mindset, attitude and be willing to invest in yourself so that you can have the knowledge and skills required to add value to your niche. As you invest in yourself and your personal education and development, you are investing in your business because as an entrepreneur YOU are the ultimate factor that determines success. So here are my recommendations if you are serious about being a successful entrepreneur:

I have personally integrated these three programs into my offline company and online business, while also leveraging them with one another because they are complimentary. As an added bonus, any entrepreneur that decides to use these three programs to build their business will be given real-time personal training on what it takes to be a successful entrepreneur and learn how I leverage these programs (and others) into continuing to build my businesses.  This is only for the serious entrepreneur that joins my teams.
