Frank,
You are exactly what this country needs. We n linger have leaders running our country except fr thse thst want to take away from us. The future is in your hands to help others make a life for themselves, not just a living.
Thanks for all your content, keep it comin big guy.
Frank & Trey,
Thanks for sharing. Interesting as always, the message within is intuitive for those who are aware – likely a very small minority. The concepts of providing exceedingly-high value and of ‘coopetition’ would seem foreign to all but a select few. For those new to the wisdom you have shared, the choice to implement – to act upon it – is virtually certain to produce results that serve to reinforce the sensibility and viability of the philosophies that underly these and like principles.
Frank, your message is very well received – and part of the cure to what ails us. Thank you for a long trail of guidance and leadership that establishes you to be part of the solution as opposed to part of the problem. It’s appreciated.
Hi Frank,
I think every Leader of Every Country in the World needs to see this video.
And I would hope that they get one thing from it.
Help all their countrymen get what they want in order
to get their country up to the standard they want.
Alas I dream.

This is a great video, and I agree completely about the comments about Google. They have been doing very strange things to accounts recently, mostly without any explanation. It’s time to find alternative means of traffic, I agree.
Hi Frank, Trey,
You cool man:)
Well said and presented your an inspiration.
Tony
P.S. That video with the helicopter and John Reese,
please do another one. That fulfills the happiness
part, I was smiling and laughing all the way through.
Frank,
Well said as always! The shift needs to go from hard selling – to providing value . .and more value. . .and more until we completely occupy the mental space in the mind of our prospects!!
You stated ‘out cooling’ — nicely put!
Once they can only think about all the great stuff we’ve helped them with they no longer have mental resistnace to dealing with .. . well US of course – we are now their preferred provider – then waalaa! paydays naturally occur!
Happy holidays – thanks for spreading your goodwill and cheer!
thanks Frank – you rock as always!
PS Thanks for Sharing Trey you rock too!
very good info,thank’s
Thanks Trey!
I’m gonna comment over at Franks
Awesome stuff Frank – I love hearing your messages. Keep ‘em coming.
Frank & Trey…
Dead on. I can remember hooking up on Prodigy!! Anybody remember that?
It would take five minutes to update a single comment when you were chatting. Hilarious!
And in terms of video… man, that was nightmare and only a hope! A single video card could cost as much as a good Mac. I used to have all these gizmos and contraptions. It was nuts.
I have an online guitar course now that thrives on offering quality video lessons. I can’t EVEN imagine trying to do things like I used to.
As far as the Big G Slap Monkey goes, ewww…. that’s a boiling point for me. I know I’m always looking for options.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. If I could make a suggestion, you really need to keep a guitar in your hands Frank and give me a call so we can jam.
Have a great Holiday Season!

Frank,
YEAH! I was one of those Google accounts that got shut down, unbelievable! Hey guys, listen to this one… “SCREW GOOGLE!” HA!
I love you guys.

Thanks for sharing this Trey.
It reinforces 2 concepts that I cherish ie
1) giving more than I receive and
2) working in harmony in a mastermind with the abundance mindset.
It is good to hear Frank share his secret here and it stoke the fires for more good work
Thanks
Louisa
Ditto Jim and Frank,
The offline world needs what we have. I am just getting started, but things are really starting to come together now that I am focusing on helping connect customers that are searching online for offline businesses that have not web presence.
Thanks Frank for the very serious video,
Robert
Trey i hope you are well,
Fantastic and very informative video. I am still trying to make money on line.
Be well

Hi Frank,
Well that decade flew by like super -sonic jet passing overhead.
You always seem to have so many thought starters in your messages.
Again, as we stood here 10 years ago looking at what was coming, again we are in a very good spot to take our own success to new levels by helping others and then success just comes – it all seems to be so “common sensical” and why people don’t get it is beyond me.
I guess “common sense” is no longer common.
It is wonderful to hear from someone who really does get it.
As always ( and I do go back to the veery beginning with you Instant Internet Empires and all )
your video is entertaining and informative.
Thank you so much for your thoughts.
Best regards,
Harry Crowder
boooo google! lol ( if google asks, i didn’t say that
I’d like to take a helicopter tour of the economy ~ sounds like an interesting place to visit. LOL
Great vid frank!
You are hitting the nail on the head. We need to talk about OfflineBiz.com! Would love to partner with you somehow. There are 4,000 + members and a great discussion forum already established and excitedly pursuing the “Offline Gold” niche.
Good work on the video – great reminder of how far we’ve come.
Jim
Dear Trey, Dear Frank,
Gentlemen, y’all don’t know me from a hole in the wall, but over the last three years or so I’ve heard and read and seen a great deal of marketing stuff online—some of it spot on, some of it kind of hazy, some of it cheap, tacky, (and crap), and some of it just so gosh darn appalling as to be beyond redemption!
You need to know something: you both rock.
This awesome—AWESOME video needs to become essential viewing for every current, wannabe, or aspiring online marketer. I hope and trust that this “State of the Nation” approach becomes an annual thing. Great stuff guys, thank you both for sharing — Kind regards, and Season’s Greetings to one and all, — Gary B. Wilmington, DE
Huzzah! Huzzah! Well presented Frank. Thanks for getting out there in a leadership position. Thanks also for mentioning the un-coolness of google!
Thanks for the feedback guys. Feel free to comments directly to frank on his blog, too:

Great. Simply great. The decade in a tidy time capsule! We have come so far in a short ten years. And I agree with where the next ten years are heading.
Listening to you reminded me of watching thousands of beams of light passing through a prism revealing the true colors (mindset and thought process of industry leaders) of those who really get it.
Recently watched and listened to Stephen Pierce and took to heart his section on focus.
Here’s to ten more years of being person B.
Thanks Frank!
