Home Business Start Up Operators Get Their Own Support Website
Over the years I have watched Barbara Gabogrecan set up a number of support groups and websites to assist the home based and micro businesses and I am proud to be supporting her latest venture, a special ‘no cost; low cost’ website for home business start up operators.
www.HomeBusinessStartupNow.com was launched on Monday 14th March until Monday 21st March. There are $1000’s in prizes, available to all who want to celebrate the launch.
This website was created to offer essential information and practical support for the start up businesses. There are over 100 f.r.e.e templates that can be used to establish procedures for the ‘day to day’ running of their business. In addition, there are f.r.e.e CD’s, E-books, DVD’s as well as a number of ‘low cost’ products designed to give the home business operator a ‘helping hand’ during the early stages of their development.
These home business start ups will not have to spend enormous amounts of time searching for that ‘elusive product’ to help make their ‘lot easier’. Barbara personally recommends everything offered from this site.
From Monday 14th March, visit www.HomeBusinessStartupNow.com and claim your prizes. Tell your friends and let them share in the prize pool too. There is plenty of time for you and your associates to take part in the Launch as it takes place over 7 days.
iBidAM is giving away $1000’s in free advertising – nothing new there – thanks a lot Louise!!
Hope to see you there

Thanks to iBidAM.com and Louise Schultze the ‘A Day With Success’ programs are selling out fast, people from all over Australia are flying in to spend one day with a highly successful CEO. Louise is our most on demand and we think it’s because of her freakish profiling skills. We had another chat with her and this is what she had to say.
“I’m very taken back that the first year of hosting ‘A Day With Success’ programs are selling out and people are coming from all over Australia to book in.” Louise says. “It is a great honour that you can be a part of such an important venture in someone’s life, like their very own business. It’s great to be using my profiling skills again, and I thought I may be a little rusty, but it was just like riding a bike. Little secret, I am loving it!
I think I am relating well, because I know what it feels like to not be taken seriously in business, what it feels like to feel a little lost with some issues you face, and that there isn’t someone who has done it all before you can go to and say these are my problems what are the solutions, it gives me great pleasure that I can now be that for other people in their business.”
Enough from Louise - so what’s it like from the perspective of those attending?
Here’s a letter from an attendee from the June 2010 A Day With Success.
“Dear Louise,
I wanted to thank you so much for taking the time out of your (what I can only guess) manic schedule to spend a day with 4 ladies who have a vision. What I have taken away from the day is more than just ideas and motivation, it is confidence and understanding of how to and where to start.
Too many conference and workshops give you motivation but no know how and how to. You and your team have truly made such a memorable impact on my direction, focus and drive to achieve that I am unable to construct it into a sentence. THANK YOU.....
I have started my business plan, planning my days and prioritising my time better to structure my company and personal future. I am looking forward to booking into another day hopefully in August to keep things rolling.
I would love if I would still be able to take you up on the offer to help with my marketing plan, as your ideas are ingenious and your experience, well that goes without saying.
Thanks again" – Kate

I'm back for the 3rd time speaking at one of Australia’s most prestigious and downright amazing events for empowering Women. It's run by Fabe Keily aptly called What Working Women Want. And damn it, she has put together an amazing selection of international speakers for this event. What amazes me is meeting people like Fabe and her husband, who are genuine about what they do. To the point they fully fund the events, making it a non-for-profit event ensuring that everyone from all walks of society have access to this kind of uplifting experience. They have priced the tickets at $49.00, but I received an email from them saying they would like to give me some to give out to our readers for FREE. We have 8 of them left.
The event covers many topics including work / life balance, relationships, finance, business, motivation and health.
Fabe has generously offered iBidAM members 10, only 8 left, FREE tickets to pass on to you. The value of these tickets is over $1200 each!
It's this weekend 22nd and 23rd of May, I know short notice, at the Citigate Hotel in Sydneyt. It includes food and drinks and some clinking of cocktail glasses!
I was a little jealous of all this free lovin going around. So I've decided to give iBidAM members free advertising till Jan 1st 2011, if you attend the event, worth $600. Just come up to me, at the event, give me your business card and it's all yours!
To claim your free tickets go to http://www.whatwomenwantwealthcreation.com and book.
Be quick so you don’t miss out. Looking forward to kicking up my heels and clinking up the cocktail glasses with you!

iBidAM.com is going Global. To launch in the US, UK, Canada and NZ market iBidAM has decided to sell 20% off to the general public opening up 20 exclusive spots for shareholders to invest in. Louise Schultze, CEO of iBidAM.com Pty Ltd stated “iBidAM has always been about helping the Aussie battler, the businesses just starting out giving it a go. We wanted to let everyone have the opportunity to invest in iBidAM, and not just exclusive to the Venture Capital firms. As acting CEO, it is my personal pleasure to be able to share this journey with those who see the same potential our 16 current shareholders have, and join in their success also.”
Although this investment will see iBidAM with a new CEO and international law experts, it does not mean that Louise as Founding Director will not have a major controlling hand in the company. Louise comments about her moving on from CEO into Director of Advertising & Marketing and sitting comfortably into the Chairperson of the Board seat. “I am ready to step aside and have a new player come in to the team who knows their stuff when it comes to international expansion. I think a good leader knows how to build a good team and knows exactly when it is time to take a back seat. Having said that, that seat, the big boss chair I’ve been sitting in all this time, I’ll be moving that into the board room with me.”
iBidAM is raising AU$2M starting from the 30th March 2010 and closing 30th April 2010. After this iBidAM will not be selling any more of the company until it releases an IPO or has a significant trade sale that the shareholders are happy with in the next 2-5 years. The share unit price is $1.09, and investment starts at a minimum AU$1,000. As of the 1st May, iBidAM will look at all offers and take first preference on the highest ethical purchase of shares until all 20 positions are filled. Louise states that “If it was up to me, I would be happy to release more than 20 positions. As a non-listed company we are bound by laws that protect us and investors to opening only 20 non-sophisticated positions per year, with a total maximum of 50. And because we have a target of $2M to reach for budgets we must take the highest offer first and work backwards. We have had many enquiries for Self Managed Super Fund holders about using their super for investment, and our experts at JB Global say that it is doable, however exercising the use of your financial advisor is extremely important when making these decisions.”
iBidAM.com Pty Ltd is an exciting company with real credits to its name, experts backing it and has a great brand and capture in the marketplace. Exciting times.
Seats are limited for the investment presentation evening at the Rialto on the 30th March 2010.

Thanks for your support
When you’re in a hurry….
OK – it’s your mothers voice
in your head saying, ‘you should have gone before we left.’ The very simple truth about being organised. But what happens when you are just not
organised. And you leave things to the very
last second and then you go, hang on – how do I get it there in time?
I recently did a talk in Brisbane and in holiday
mode left all my materials back at the office. Not possible to get them all re-printed, and Australia Post,
not even an option. So what could I do?
I recently spoke to an expert
on the subject Jason Egbers
from My Urgent Courier, about what
is the best and most financially viable way of getting something somewhere REAL
FAST. And this is what he had to say….
“The Freight industry is a
very complex beast. Without it, supermarkets would be empty, our stores would
only have local products and life would be very difficult. In fact we couldn’t
imagine life without it.
The only time we think about it is when we need something sent ‘yesterday’ and
we want it done for the cheapest possible price. Unfortunately, the freight
industry is already doing so much that it already has set schedules and can
include your one item but it has to fit into their schedule – not yours. The
only way to avoid this set schedule is to organise a VIP or Premium Flight
service.
My Urgent Courier allocates
the next available local courier to pick up your goods, take them to the
airport. Your item then flies to the nearest airport of its final destination.
Once it has cleared airport security it is whisked away by another local
courier and delivered. It’s that fast and that easy. “
By having 1000’s of couriers
around Australia
at your finger tips, seems to me like these boys are doing well for themselves.
Great concept and wish I had of known
about it 2 weeks ago!

I want
to save the oldest rainforest in the World. So I think I’ll just go on another
holiday!
As you
know iBidAM
just loves helping out where it can. We
love the work the Australian Rainforest Foundation does and when they said
could we help out in giving away the best holiday in the world,
naturally how
could we resist.
Since the late 1700s much of Australia's rainforest, including
75% of its original tropical rainforest, has been cleared for agricultural,
industrial and urban development. Today rainforest covers just 0.5% or 4.2
million hectares of Australia's
landmass.
The campaign to save the endangered cassowary is
inextricably linked to saving its habitat – Australia’s small remnant wet
tropical rainforests. Funds raised form this competition will assist in not
just in land protection and rehabilitation but in the establishment of an
international rainforest research centre, planned to be built deep in the
Daintree rainforest.
So iBidAM entered in
the competition and extended a lending hand.
We thought even if you don’t win, we could give you something special
just to say thanks.
Not only are we giving away $300 of free advertising but the CEO of iBidAM is generously donating 10% back to the
Australian Rainforest Foundation to plant
the vital food trees required in the Cassowary Corridor - why wait ? Enter, get
you code and send your email off today.....

"IT IS ONLY THE MOMENT TO WHICH YOU OWN.
THE NEW YEAR IS BUT A DREAM THAT THE MOMENTS YOU CHOOSE, PLAY IN.
LIKE ALL PLAYGROUNDS, YOU MAY SWING, YOU MAY SLIDE, YOU MAY CLIMB HIGH, YOU MAY EVEN BE TURNED UPSIDE DOWN.
YOU MAY FALL, YOU MAY CRY, YOU MAY LAUGH, YOU MAY RUN AND RUN AND RUN.
YOU WILL HAVE FUN.
YOU WILL REQUIRE A LONG NAP.
THERE WILL BE JOY, JEALOUSY AND COMPETITION HAD, SOME MORE AGRESSIVELY THAN OTHERS.
CHOOSE YOUR PART WISELY.
WILL YOU BE THE BULLY OR WILL YOU BE THE VICTIM?
WILL YOU BE THE ONE WHO SIMPLY STANDS BY?
IT IS BUT A SUPERHERO I HOPE FOR YOU.
STAND AT THE TOP OF YOUR FORT AND HOLD YOUR FIST HIGH.
LEAVE THE PLAYGROUND AS YOU FOUND IT, SO THAT OTHERS MAY FIND JOY.
AND REMEMBER, IN A PLAYGROUND THERE IS NO PLAN, OTHER THAN A PLAN TO CREATE JOY IN ONES HEART.
MAY THIS BE YOUR PLAN FOR 2010."
