Title: If You Dare To Care Then Share
Description: Q&A Session (FREE Webinar) For 8-Week Web 2.0 Course
Course title: Establish A Powerful Online Presence
Date/Time: Tuesday September 15, 2009, Noon EST and again at 8 pm EST
Hosts: Dr. Randy Peck, Dr. Jerry Graham
Guest Panelists: Karen Hannon, Bob Sims, Renato Amato

If you dare to care, then share !
If you share, pay heed !!
God will reward every good deed !!!

Those are the lyrics to a poem written by Hugh Traulsen in the 1980′s titled “Caring / Sharing.” He dedicated that poem to his wife Ann after she died from a rare form of lung cancer in 2007.

I first got connected to Hugh on July 4, 2009, FREEDOM day in America when we celebrate the birth of our nation. On that historic morning, I discovered the most profound voice message of my life from Hugh. Hugh’s message led me to promptly call him and God immediately connected our hearts.

Even though Hugh has very little money and is disabled, he has turned out to be one of my greatest blessings of 2009. Through Hugh, I got connected to Karen Hannon.

Karen opened the door for me to do two live seminars in Glen Allen (Richmond) Virginia on Sept 1 titled “Establish A Powerful Online Presence.” The purpose is to inspire people to share their stories, products, and services with the world. That’s my God-given gift – CONNECTING.

Karen was the very first person to sign up for our 8-week online Web 2.0 course that starts tonight called “Establish A Powerful Online Presence.” And she is bringing along with her a herd of followers.

Today at Noon EST and again at 8 pm EST, Dr. Jerry Graham and I are hosting a free live Q&A session (webinar) to answers questions about the 8-week course. We have 3 guests on our call, including Karen Hannon (Richmond, VA), Bob Sims (Austin, TX), and Renato Amato (Italy).

This Q&A session and the Web 2.0 Course are for YOU if…

1) you are tired of being the best kept secret in your field

Web 2.0+++ is at least 100x more powerful than Web 1.0 (a traditional website). What this means for you is every hour you spend using Web 2.0 strategically is equivalent to at least 100 hours you spend with traditional marketing. And every dollar you spend on Web 2.0 equates to at least $100 for traditional marketing.

P.P.S. At the Apostolic Council of Prophetic Elders in the U.K. earlier this year, the primary word received was “no more business as usual.”

“By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit;” (John 15:8a)

Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying: “See, I have called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah. And I have filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom, in understanding, in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship, to design artistic works, to work in gold, in silver, in bronze, in cutting jewels for setting, in carving wood, and to work in all manner of workmanship. (Ex 31:1-5)

If your business or ministry was a fairy tale, what fairy tale would it be?
For example, “Pretty Woman” was Cinderella.

If your business or ministry was a movie, what movie would it be?

On June 30, I participated in a teleseminar hosted by Bernadette Doyle called “7 Secrets to Attracting All the Clients You Want.” After listening to Bernadette for about 60 minutes, I was absolutely convinced she knows what she is talking about and operating in her ‘sweet spot,” so I enrolled in her training program.

Bernadette is a mother of two young children and has a life-style that most of us would love to have. She seems to have values that are near and dear to my heart. Two days ago, I re-listened to Bernadette’s July 23 jump-start teleseminar about getting new clients. Wow! The statement that jumped out the most at me was this, “When we get really clear on the service we have to offer, the world will come to us.”

Doesn’t that make good sense? When you operate in your sweet spot, when you get in alignment with your assignment, God’s provision will follow.

My “GIFT” is CONNECTING and I’m passionate about coaching YOU to share YOUR stories, products, and services with the WORLD.

“So what?” you may ask.

I’d like to invite you to participate in a FREE Webinar (web seminar) on Saturday August 8 called “Accelerate Your Business Or Ministry By Establishing A POWERFUL Online Presence.”

The purpose is to teach you to harness the POWER of the web to share YOUR stories, products, and services with the WORLD.

Jim Charapich, the President of the Culpeper Chamber of Commerce, told me he feels it’s important for businesses to use the web strategically.

The Internet is the most powerful business tool of the 21st century. And Web 2.0 is at least 10-100 times more powerful than Web 1.0. Even for “brick and mortar” business, strategic use of Web 2.0 can make a BIG difference.

Let me ask you …

1) How can YOU best LEVERAGE YOUR TIME to do what you already do well?

2) How can you best share your “GIFT” with the world (10’s, 100’s or even 1000’s of people at a time)?

Oh, taste and see that the LORD is good; Blessed is the man who trusts in Him! (Psalm 34:8)

How are you sharing your stories, products, and services with the world?

At 9 pm EDT on July 2, 2009, the first Thursday of the second half of this calendar year, Dr. Jerry Graham and I launched our 12-week UNCOMMON Internet Marketing Coaching course for 12 people. The LORD assembled a TRIBE of His followers who were desperate to learn how to share their God stories, products, and servcices with the world.

The online, interactive courses that Jerry and I offer differ from any others that we have ever seen in that they combine Journaling, Coaching, and Web 2.0 for EXPLOSIVE KINGDOM IMPACT. Each week Tribe Members are given 5 questions and asked to post their answers publicly for other Tribe Members on the private Member blog.

All the questions are addressed to the LORD. For example,

Day 1. LORD, what are reasonable goals for me to set and achieve in 3 months from this Web 2.0 course?
Day 2. LORD, who is my target audience?
Day 3. LORD, how can I best feed Your sheep using Web 2.0?

When you ask the LORD a question and believe He will answer it, He does – every time. The Holy Spirit doesn’t play hide and seek. If you are born again with the Spirit of God within you, He wants to speak to you. He wants to reveal things to you. He wants to inspire and lead you to the greatness you were designed to manifest for God’s glory.

Oh, taste and see that the LORD is good.

Renato Amato, my dear friend from Bracciano Italy, gets up at 3 am (his time in Italy each Friday morning) to participate in our Web 2.0 course. This is dedication. This is commitment. This is passion to grow. Renato’s faithfulness and his two-prayer entries on his blog have greatly inspired me and other Tribe Members to do more, to be more, to live abundantly.

About a month ago, Renato and I began weekly one-on-one “coaching” meetings each Monday. Last Monday (July 20), Renato talked to me about two of his blog posts written the week before “WFJ: A “net” to catch multitudes!” and “WFJ: Showers of blessings!” As Renato was talking about showers of blessings, he told me he sees a dam breaking to quench the thirst of God’s chidlren with living waters.

That prompted me to do a Google image search, which immediately led me to this image.

Vision of dam breaking to release Gods living waters

This morning during my two-way journaling, the LORD began

Randy, the dam is breaking. You have my word on it. My children are hungry and thirsty for My Word and My living waters. You, Renato, Bob, Virginia, Carrie, Rod, Deb, David, and the others are now feeding my sheep and quenching their thirsts as you share with your blogs. What’s important is that they hear from Me, not from you. That’s why sharing two-way prayers is so powerful. I AM doing a new work. I AM using you to inspire others to the greatness I have instilled in them. The passion you have within you comes from Me. The desires you have deep within come from Me.

Prayer Power
Heavenly Father, loving God, I stand in awe of Your power and might – Your majesty. Thank You for assembling the UNCOMMON Internet Marketing Coaching TRIBE. Thank You for the great work You are doing through each Member and the Tribe at large. Thank You that the dam is breaking. The world is hungry for Your Word and thirsty to receive Your living waters. Release! Release! Release! Speak to those who read this message Spirit to spirit. Open their eyes of understanding to how you want to use them. Praise the LORD of my soul. Amen and Hallelujah! Glory to the King of kings.

Who are you upsetting? Who are you connecting? Who are you leading?

Then Moses spoke to the heads of the tribes concerning the children of Israel, saying, “This is the thing which the LORD has commanded: (Numbers 30:1)

Yesterday morning, Michael Stay sent me an email with a link to a profound video with Seth Goodin talking about tribes. This was in follow up to our strategic planning meeting on May 14.

Seth says we are living during a major transition with how ideas are shared and spread. We are in a new model of leadership. Changes are no longer made with money and power. Tribes are what matter now. It’s tribes that can change our world, not because they force people but because people want to connect. Assemble tribes that assemble tribes that becomes a movement.

Seth then asks, “Who are you upsetting? Who are you connecting? Who are you leading?”

Most movements are about finding a group that’s disconnected, but already has a yearning. Change comes by affecting the “who” not the mechanics of what you are doing. People are waiting for you to lead them.

Tribe Leaders …
1) Challenge the status quo
2) Build a culture
3) Connect people to one another. More than anything else, people want to feel missed.
4) Commit to the cause, to the tribe, to the people who are there.

Challenge: Do something. It only takes 24 hours to create a movement.

Prayer Power
Almighty and eternal God and Father, I worship and adore You. I ask You to help me assemble a modern-day Gideon army, a tribe, to inspire people around the world to the greatness You designed them for. Thank You Jesus for being my Shepherd, for making me lie down in green pastures, for guiding me in the steps of righteousness and leading me for Your own name sake. Anoint me from the heavens. Anoint me from the Holy Temple. Anoint me from Zion, O Lord.

Blessings to do something to change the world — to join or lead a tribe!

Wow! It’s so exciting to the fruit of the weekly webinars that Jerry Graham and I are doing. During every webinar, we see people get connected to new people, ideas, and resources. And that’s what I’m passionate about – CONNECTING. One idea can completely change your life!

Today, I want to let you know about three webinars and one teleseminar that our JIREH Marketing team is hosting on March 30 and April 1. Depending on your particular interest or passion, I suspect that most, if not all of you, will be interested in at least one of these topics. To learn more about or to register for any of these, see today’s Blessings of the Day.

Tomorrow (March 31) at 11 am EST, Jerry and I are hosting a WEB 2.0 webinar titled “Attraction Marketing Manifesto” in which we will summarize the content of Ann Sieg’s new e-book by that same name. Ann is one of leaders in the world at teaching others simple techniques of Attraction Marketing so clients and customers are attracted to you automatically in droves.

Several incredible doors opened within a few days as a result of this webinar. For example, Renato Amato, an Italian citizen in Italy, sent me a 10 paragraph email asking to partner with our team to reach the Italian people for Jesus. Since I grew up in Italy, this touched my heart deeply.

Finally, to cap things off for the week, at Noon EST on Wednesday April 1, Jerry (Ph.D.), his wife Sharon (RN), and I (M.D.) are co-hosting our very first public Wellness webinar announcing to the world our new e-book and course “Uncommon WELLNESS Coaching!” We’ve already had 34 people from at least 12 different states and 3 nations register.

“Blessed to be a blessing”

“And whoever will not receive you nor hear your words, when you depart from that house or city, shake off the dust from your feet.” (Matthew 10:14)

On a scale of 1-10, how would you rate your use of Web 2.0?
What are you going to do to improve that?

I feel like a kid in Toy Land. During the past 6 weeks, I’ve plunged big time into Social Marketing and have discovered how much fun Web 2.0 is and how effective it is at building relationships and growing my network. Leadership is about influence.

What’s the difference between Web 1.0 and Web 2.0. Well, my wife gave the best summary I’ve ever heard while we were walking earlier this week – Web 1.0 is 1-way communication and Web 2.0 is 2-way.

Last week I was saying Web 2.0 is at least 10-100 times more powerful than Web 1.0, but now I realize that’s a gross underestimate. Web 2.0 is at least 100-1,000 times more powerful than Web 1.0.

Let me give just a few simple examples to make my point. I’ve been sending these daily devotionals for 27+ months now. Typically, my net growth rate (new subscribers minus unsubscribers minus invalid email addresses) is about 7-10 people per month.

Well, since beginning the five week series of webinars titled “UNCOMMON Social Marketing (Web 2.0)” on Oct 2, my net growth with my Constant Contact list alone has been 158. That doesn’t include Twitter.

On October 9, I hosted Denise Wakeman and Patsi Krakoff, a.k.a. The Blog Squad, as my guest experts. They were awesome. What they shared would benefit every business, every ministry, and every church. I was so impressed, I had the entire webinar professionally transcribed for my very first time and then used that to make a Camtasia video. I published that video online and it’s FREE for 3 more days. See today’s Link of the Day before this opportunity passed you by forever.

Denise recommended everyone on the webinar open up their own Twitter account. She said all the shakers and the movers on the Internet are now using Twitter. She said she was a skeptic until she started using it. I was a skeptic too until I started using Twitter. Now I’m a believer. Let me share why.

Since opening my own Twitter account two weeks ago, I now am following 179 people and have 96 people following me. I’ve had 36 new people follow me in just the past 2 days without doing anything to try to attract them. What’s so significant about that? Every Tweet I post (and each only takes me 2-3 minutes) shows up instantly at the top of every personal Twitter web page for everyone who is following me. But not only am I building relationships and influencing those people, but everyone who is following them as well. That’s an opportunity to influence tens of thousands of new people in just two weeks.

In the past week using Twitter, I got connected to “The Internet Marketing Inner Circle.” I’ve learned more about Internet marketing and a variety of other interesting topics than I did in the past year. This is incredible. I feel like I’ve had my head buried in the sand by not learning about and using Web 2.0 until the past 2 months.

My favorite Bible is the “The Maxwell Leadership Bible.” According to Dr. John Maxwell, “the American church is dying due to lack of strong leadership. Nothing is more important than leadership. Everything rises and falls on leadership. Leadership is influence – nothing more, nothing less.” To be a leader, you must have others follow you and your example.

Jesus said the whole Bible could be summarized in the Greatest Commandment – to love God and love people. In other words, “Life is about relationships.” Other names for Social Marketing are “Relationship Marketing” and “Attraction Marketing.”

Doesn’t it make sense that when you add value to other people first without expecting anything back from them, they will automatically be attracted to you. Jesus said, “It’s in giving we receive.” I want to be an UNCOMMON Giver. What about you? Will you let me coach you to unleash the power of the web in your business or ministry?

You’ve invited to participate in tonight’s Week 3 webinar of the UNCOMMON Social Marketing (Web 2.0)” series. The topic today is “Content Sharing, Bookmarking, and Renegade University.” This is about improving your search engine viability very quickly. Seize this opportunity while it’s still FREE. After October, the 5 week course will cost $150/person. See today’s Link of the Day to register.

Prayer Power
Heavenly Father, we praise You as the God of the Internet, Your supernatural highway of communication. Thank You for opening my eyes of understanding to the power of Social Marketing. Thank You for the UNCOMMON favor you are showing me as many, many new people are attracted to the messages I am sharing on Your behalf. Open the eyes of my readers to the power of Social Marketing to grow their own ministries and businesses to advance Your Kingdom here on earth. In Jesus’ name we pray and give You glory! Amen and hallelujah!

Blessings to be a good steward with Social Marketing!

Trust in the LORD with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths. (Proverbs 3:5-6)

What is Web 2.0?
How can that help you SHARE your God story with the world?
How can that help you prosper in the marketplace no matter what your vocation?

Yesterday I shared that the topic for this week is “Working Smarter, Not Harder” and that the web is the greatest business invention of the 20th century.

The purpose of this e-prayer devotional is to bless millions of families to be a blessing to millions more by connecting people, ideas, and resources. One of the best ways to do that is to teach people attraction marketing.

Today at 7:30 pm, Dr. Jerry Graham and I are launching a revolutionary 5 week webinar series titled “UNCOMMON Social Marketing (Web 2.0).” The LORD has blessed the two of us with a system to share what we know at a very affordable price with those within our sphere of influence. We invite YOU to join and participate.

This course will be followed up in early October by a 5 week online course for junior college and college students titled “UNCOMMON Social Marketing (Web 2.0): Teaching Attraction Marketing.” The LORD has already opened the door for this to be marketed by a few community colleges in my region. I’ll be contacting colleges across Virginia later this week.

Do YOU Want To EARN MORE And Work Less Hard???

Finally! There Is A Solution…

Depending on how soon YOU want to achieve your DREAMS and GOALS, we have four levels to launch your success. Visit today’s Link of the Day to learn more.

Dr. Mike Murdock, founder of The Wisdom Center, says “Prosperity is having enough of God’s provision to accomplish His assignment for your life.” I couldn’t agree more. Do you have enough provision to accomplish God’s assignment for your life?

Last week I told Jerry that I believe the greatest Christian leaders in the next 3-5 years will be people who know and use social marketing. Jerry told me the greatest Christian leaders will be people with prominent roles in the marketplace.

Prayer Power
Heavenly Father, thank You for opening this incredible door of opportunity, not just for Jerry and me, but for people in our network. May many of Your children choose to jump on Your bandwagon to learn how to share their God stories and to use attraction marketing to advance Your Kingdom. Thank You Jesus. You reign. Amen and hallelujah!

Blessings to learn how to use attraction marketing to advance God’s Kingdom!

Announcement
Today at Noon EST, the weekly Pray Culpeper meetings resume at Reformation Lutheran Church, located at 415 S Main Suite # 101, Culpeper, VA 22701 (Across from the 7-11). Pastor Brad Hales (Reformation Lutheran Church) and Pastor GW Dameron (City on a Hill Church) have committed to come weekly to pray for our community. I’ll be there today. This New Beginning is especially timely given the recent tragic death of Pastor Randy Orndorff’s daughter.

from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love. (Ephesians 4:16)

How are you going to share your UNCOMMON message with the world?

I’ve said over and over again that the Internet is God’s supernatural highway of communication. Today’s story is a testimony of how God is using the web to open doors to new nations for me.

In January 2008, Jerry Graham referred me to Robert Hartzell, founder of Fountains of Life. While Robert already had a website, he recognized it needed a major upgrade. Robert also wanted to integrate email marketing into his website and to begin a web store. Robert said the main thing that attracted him to me is my gifting to POWER network God’s army.

Robert has done an amazing job growing in his use of the web. It’s incredible how quickly he grasped the concepts and ran with them. After I set Robert up with a blog, he began posting entries using his monthly newsletters from the past 10 years. That moved Fountains of Life into the top 10 with Google for several keyword searches that were important for people to find Robert and his ministry.

While Robert lives in Florida and I have never met him in person, he has turned out to be a tremendous blessing to me, helping me grow in several areas of my life. In addition, he is now connecting me to other prominent Christian leaders. Over time, we have developed a covenant relationship.

On March 4, 2008, I hosted my very first “Uncommon Internet Marketing Seminar.” That was followed up with two more, March 19 and April 1. I have seen fruit almost immediately from each of those.

Before my webinar on April 1, I did minimal  advertising. One thing I did do was ask Robert to use his new email marketing system to invite his contacts. One of the people who responded to Robert’s bulk email was Steve Cobb.

Near the end of my webinar, I asked the question, “Who is my target audience?” My answer:
Visionaries – People with God-sized visions
Christian leaders who want to change the world
People with large established networks
Teachable leaders willing to be coached
Leaders seeking covenant relationships

I then presented an UNCOMMON opportunity and shared Bill Gates (Microsoft) quote – “If we don’t act on a good idea within 24 hours, we are less than 50% likely to ever act on it. If we haven’t acted on it inside of days, then we are less than 2% likely to ever act on it.”

Well Steve Cobb didn’t let the opportunity pass by. Within one hour, he sent me a long, well-written email. Here is an excerpt from that:

“I want to thank you for your helpful webinar and Robert Hartzell for inviting me.
 
I’m the President and National Director of the Institute of Theology by Extension in Guatemala (www.inste.org). At the end of your seminar you described 4 characteristics of people you like to relate with and I identified with all four (depending on how much of a financial investment it would mean). I liked very much the point about life-time clients and I have a few of them, and would like very much to get closer and more personal with them, as well as add new ones.
 
Helen and I have been missionaries in Latin America for 32 years (Costa Rica 1, Honduras 9, Ecuador 10 and Guatemala 12 years). We’ve given ourselves mainly to leadership training in a formal educational environment. INSTE is professional theological education with an informal modality. We’ve raised up 4 Bible School in 3 nations and trained a lot of wonderful men and women. So we have two sides to out internet communications — the Spanish side and the English side. We probably have close to a 1000 friends in Latin America and under 100 in the States.”
 
Subsequently, my web team helped Steve upload his marketing video and get a blog going. In the past month Steve has already made 27 posts to his blog. This past Tuesday (May 6), Steve got connected to Jerry Graham and Ben Stewart when he participated in our inaugural Web Mastermind Team meeting. Jerry and Ben both offered to help Steve further. Wow! It’s so beautiful when the Body of Christ functions the way God intends with each “joint supplying.”

Prayer Power
Most gracious and merciful Father, thank You for connecting me to awesome leaders like Jerry Graham, Ben Stewart, Robert Hartzell, and Steve Cobb in the past year. Bless each of them, their families, and their ministries. Thank You for Your promise in Luke 6:38, “Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you.” We bless and honor You Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. In Jesus name, Amen and Hallelujah!

How does one overcome a severe addiction?

For more than a year, I’ve been sharing an uncommon revelation from the Holy Spirit that the Internet is God’s supernatural highway of communication. I experienced this first hand as my own spiritual journey to salvation was closely tied to the web.

In yesterday devotional, I shared how God shouted to me “put away the evil” while I was “doing the dew” on the morning of Feb 10 and then Pastor Matt preached a corresponding outstanding message titled “Why Everyone Needs Negative Friends.” During Matt’s sermon, Lynndey Reid came on stage to share her personal testimony of how God helped her overcome a severe addiction. As Lynndey authentically shared her powerful story of God’s grace and mercy, my eyes flooded with tears. Here is an excerpt from the end of Lynndey’s testimony:

“We knew we couldn’t fix ourselves and the only one that could restore us as individuals and our marriage & family was the Lord.  We came back in October 2006 determined to recommit our lives to the Lord.  In January we both started attending Life Groups – we knew we needed to connect with other believers.  We were still struggling with the alcohol but the Lord is so gracious.  Because we turned back to Him, He met us every step of the way.  We became desperate to get rid of the control that alcohol had over our lives.

We missed one Sunday when Randy Peck shared, but we listened to the MP3 message [downloaded from the web]. We ended up listening to it three times and all we heard was the power of prayer, fasting, and studying the Word.  We fasted for our first time the next Friday which ended up being our first Friday in 3 years without alcohol.  During that day we didn’t feel like anything was happening, but the Lord moved – and broke the chains of addiction in our lives.  Drinking was once the focus of our lives but Praise God it no longer has control over us.

James 5:19 says:
Brethren if anyone among you wanders from the truth, and someone turns him back, let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death and cover a multitude of sins.

If you have a friend who is wandering – don’t shy away from speaking the truth of God’s love into their lives & praying for them.  Also, we never know where someone is when they come through the church doors.  They may be like Chris & I were – at the end of their rope.  You welcomed us and we can’t thank you enough.  Let us always be a body of believers with the arms of Jesus open wide.”
