My mentor, Dan Kennedy, taught me to "go deep". While most people forget what they learned yesterday, I "go deep" when Dan Kennedy is speaking. There's a quote he says that I love, he says “I know the mind, like the parachute, is most valuable open." I agree with these words a 100%. You'll always find me in the front row, taking feverish notes, mindmapping what I've learned, and putting it all into action.

Dan talks a lot about super-achievers and what makes them different. They are not distracted; rather, they remain focused on taking the tiny steps and maintaining an accurate routine to achieve their goals.

Today I wanted to share with you something I pulled out of my Dan Kennedy NoBS Inner Circle archive. Would love to know your thoughts on it. Leave me a comment below.

My guide Dr. Stephen Roulac encouraged me to apply for a doctoral program when I explained the concept of "Pixel Estate Portfolio".  After carefully evaluating the concept and its depth, he suggested that this is not a topic for a blog article or a pillar page or even a book. This is going to require few thousand hours of work, deep and diligent work, significant scholastic study, significant literature review, analysis, research and conclusive evidence before I can write a dissertation that would be considered worthy of publication.

Couple of years ago Dipali and I were looking at numbers and relationships and something really interesting was revealed. We were analyzing historic revenue data to determine where most of our money came from. We went on to calculate and document this. We asked ourselves: over the last several years, from the last $5M in revenue, where did most of the money came from?

I was invited to be a guest of Dr. Greg Wych at a dental event where Dan Kennedy was speaking. Dan spoke for about 4 hours, break and another 2 hours. These are my notes from the event. I also re-examined the handout packet and resynthesized my notes to make sure I did not miss anything. There are two parts to this map. On the right you will find assets on the subject of: FOUND MONEY!: How to plug holes in the money bucket with internal marketing. On the left you will find assets on the subject of PATIENT MULTIFICATION: How to grow the practice and meet new patient needs from within, with internal marketing.

It was June 2012 in Cleveland and after the event we all went to the racetrack with Dan Kennedy. While everyone was having fun, I found a quiet moment with Dan and asked him:

"Dan, in your book on Time Management; you are talking about some EXTREME control measure on access to your time. This is easy for YOU, because you are Dan Kennedy. For a small, emerging business trying to drum up business, I need to make myself available when a prospect wants to talk to me. Exactly how do you suppose I apply the principles of time management in your book? I am exactly opposite of what you are recommending. I respond to email within minutes, I am almost always available to take a call from prospects and client 8AM to 10PM 7 days a week and my clients sincerely appreciate such availability.

Many people call many things shock and awe. We follow a specific formula we learned from Dan Kennedy which starts with a clear plastic envelope that is home to a pocket folder that houses three print assets in left pocket, one print asset in the middle and seven print assets in the right pocket. This shock and awe can be enhanced by adding an audio CD or a video DVD, a business card or a thin USB drive housing digital assets.
