What Is Your Widget? As an entrepreneur, you are peddling a big idea. It may be concrete or ethereal, but it is, nevertheless, real. Can you explain it with enthusiasm, passion, and clarity? Can you describe your "widget" in a few sentences or 30 seconds? That may be all the time you have and you need to be ready. Whether your widget" is the product of your mind or your hands, you need to be able to communicate "what it is" as with compelling brevity.
We are all selling something: ideas, products, services, ourselves. There are three necessities in any form of selling and I have coined the terms. We need digits, widgets, and fidgets. Digits are about numbers. Some will; some won't; so what! So we need to do big numbers in getting our messages out. Widgets are what we have to offer and it better be good. Fidgets represent the n ervous energy and enthusiasm that just can't keep quite about what we have.

Considering an Opportunity ? Here's how to identify legitimate direct selling opportunities: Start up costs should be minimal. The start up fees in direct selling companies are generally modest - usually the cost of a sales kit. Companies want to make it easy and inexpensive for you to start. Pyramid schemes make their money through fees paid by new recruits or by loading inventory or training aids on them. High entry fees should be a warning sign.

Some Repostings from The Dream Factory In an article entitled " What It Takes to Be a Successful Entrepreneur, " Wendy Kwek says (among other things: YOU NEED P.H.D.!!

That is Passion, Hunger and Drive! (sorry, I do not mean the academic PHD “doctorate”). So, ask yourself this question, do you have the passion to lead an exciting and rewarding life, do you have the hunger for success and do you have the drive and determination to conquer obstables that may come your way. Every time I look for business partners for the various businesses I am in, I look at the PHD level they have." My word for that, as unveiled in my sermon Sunday is "pyrocardia," a heart on fire. Romans 12:11 lays it out: "Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord."
