It is that time of year when TaraNova members are preparing for their 2011 vacations. Many of our members have already confirmed their resort destinations and are well into planning their 2012 weeks. If you bank early, you will receive the highest trading power available to the week that is deposited. Many members have already prepaid their future dues and have deposited their weeks into the RCI bank and now have the ability to request vacations two years in advance. RCI is updating their exchange system and hopefully, within the next few months, enhancements to the RCI exchange program will be available to all RCI members. Look for and read all the announcements and information from RCI.
Your management team, together with the Board, has been very busy reviewing financial statements and budget concerns. We are very pleased that for the 3rd. year in a row, the maintenance fees will continue at the current rate. Our properties have been well maintained and our members have been able to enjoy our TaraNova resorts and also experience fantastic vacations throughout the RCI family of resorts. We value your input and we consider all concerns and recommendations when we are preparing the budget.
Look inside this newsletter for important dates and other TaraNova information. Please make sure you read the "Did You Know – Don't Forget" attachment, which also provides the Projected Operating Cash Statement to the end of December 2010 and the budget for 2011.
Together with the TaraNova Vacation Club staff and your Board of Governors, I wish you a healthy, happy New Year and thank you for your continued support of TaraNova Vacation Club.
Your Board of Governors exercises jurisdiction over and ultimately controls not only your resort properties, but approves the annual budget and fully understands how the Club is managed. Every year two Board Members are elected to a three-year term to ensure continuity of experience. There will be two vacancies on the Board for June 201l. The two Directors elected will serve for a 3-year term. Clarence Clark and Michael Sudbury have indicated they will seek re-election. All members in good standing may seek election. If you are interested in serving on the Board, please notify Teresa Knapp, in writing, prior to December 31, 2010. If there are more than two candidates running for election, a short bio outline on those seeking election will be distributed in the spring mailing along with an election ballot.
October 2010 will be the LAST AUTOMATICALLY MAILED edition of "TaraNotes", "Did you Know" and other important enclosures.
All of the above will be posted on our webesite at www.taranova.com for your viewing at any time.
In order to control expenses and to further help the environment, any members that wish to have a printed copy of any of the above information, must send in a written request EACH TIME along with a self addressed, stamped envelope. Once we have received your request with your stamped envelope, we will send the requested items. Please remember that we have two (2) newsletters a year (fall & spring).
In order to ensure that you receive all the important TaraNova information, please either provide us with an e-mail address, check our website, or send a request as noted above.
We have again been advised there are companies contacting our members stating they have purchasers for TaraNova memberships. Our members have been sent what appears to be "Official Documentation" of a Purchase Offer. Our members were asked to submit funds to cover the transfer and other costs, which costs were well in excess of the TaraNova transfer fee.
TaraNova strongly recommends that you check with your Club before agreeing to any conditions pertaining to a Sale or Transfer of your membership from an outside source. TaraNova does NOT provide membership information to any marketing company. Many of these companies are purchasing your membership information, e-mail, telephone and home addresses from other sources including resorts that you have checked into and provided your personal information.
If a company contacts you with an offer, especially one that sounds too good to be true, it probably is not a true offer. Please check out the company. It may be in your best interests to have your lawyer look over any contracts. Many of these companies have operated under different names and many are under investigation in their local jurisdictions. It may be in your best interest to refrain from doing business unless you can verify their legal status. If they do have an offer, please ask them to send the bona fide offer to TaraNova directly. We will gladly assist them with any transfer they may legitimately have.
TaraNova does not allow corporations to take over a membership. It must be in a personal name as many companies close down and the Club would have no recourse to ensure that the maintenance fees are paid, which would negatively impact the financial status of the Club. We require photo ID before any transfer may be completed. Do not send any funds upfront until you check with TaraNova. Until TaraNova approves the new member, the membership will stay in your possession and you will still have all the benefits and obligations pertaining to the membership. Payment to these companies and signing their transfer or purchase agreements does not release you from any TaraNova obligations. Our "TaraNova" transfer papers must be duly executed and approved by TaraNova before a transfer may occur.
Your TaraNova membership is yours to sell. However, TaraNova must be able to ensure that the new purchaser has the resources to continue with the membership for the full term. We have transferred many memberships to family, friends and other individuals, once we are confident they are willing to assume both the benefits and the obligations of the membership.
If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact TaraNova.
Congratulations! Robert & Gail Marshall are the WINNERS of a Week (free maintenance) deposited into their RCI account to be used within the next year. We love to hear from our members. Just mail, fax or e-mail letting us know about your vacation and we will enter your name into the draw. You too may also enjoy a week compliments of TARANOVA!
I wanted to write to you and let you know how grateful I am for everything your team has done for me and to tell you that I had the best vacation ever.
I can go on and on about what a great time everyone had, but I will stop now. I just wanted to share our experience with you all and again say thank you. I must soon decide what to do next summer, and look forward to the assistance I know your team will provide when I am ready to discuss options. Because I bought this timeshare from TaraNova, I was given the JOY every grand-parent deserves. Seeing pleasure, joy, awe on the faces of those we love.
Dear Rosanne & Teresa: We had a great time in "Myrtle Beach. We stayed in unit #403 which has three bedrooms and is very close to the size of the bungalow what we live in. My sister was very impressed with this unit! She would like to bring her husband next time. We would all like to go back there again in a couple of years. The people running this resort are so friendly!
There is so much to do in Myrtle Beach. We went to an area of shops called "Broadway On the Beach". We also went to the "Palace Theatre" which is right beside "Broadway on The Beach". We saw a live show called "Le Grand Cirque Adrenaline". This show is amazing! We also went to Murrell's Inlet and walked along the pier. There is also a pier near our resort, which has two bands playing every night plus fireworks. Since it was so hot, we went swimming everyday, either in the pool or in the ocean. (The water was so warm, like bath water!). We all look forward in returning to this resort during the summer of 2012.

People get frozen by hatred. When not-so-good things happen in our lives, sometimes we tend to blame others. We blame our parents for not raising us right; we blame the government; we blame our business partners for not working how we would wish them to … And the list goes on and on. But really, what good comes with this? After you read this article, you'll see why getting frozen by hatred is unnecessary and completely irresponsible.
Next time something goes wrong and you are about to complain: stay alert for this blaming attitude. Catch it before it spreads and question it.
Doing this will allow you to see things differently. Maybe you'll even get to wear somebody else's shoes. And later on, it's possible you won't want to complain about it anymore.
You see, blaming others is easy. But then, the truly sad thing is that this only creates a negative energy. If we let such bad emotions grow within, we'll soon find out that nothing goes right whatever we do.
Yes, I just quoted Star Wars. Aren't Yoda's words extremely wise though? If we talk about fear, it may come even if you don't notice it. Any kind of reluctance could be hiding some unknown fear inside. When you discover it, you'll start breaking through. For example, the constant attitude of blaming others could actually be the representation of a fear of assuming responsibility yourself.
We have to learn to let go of hatred. I'm not just saying that because it sounds easy. It's actually quite hard to achieve. See it this way: not everybody can. That's the reason many people are still overwhelmed by everything that happens "to them". If they can't see they hold the power to change their own lives, then nobody can do that for them. Nevertheless, realizing you are living like that is always the first step.
Let it be. Things (whether they are good or bad) are going to happen anyway. If you just let them come with neither judgements nor excuses, you'll soon find out that hatred fades away.
"Whatever happens is my fault". When you blame no-one / nothing else for your failures, you are taking the responsibility. You take control. Instead of complaining about the situation, you become the boss of it. Doesn't that sound better?
If you look at it that way, then you are already changing things. If, however, you keep thinking someone else is at fault, it's like you are just crossing your arms and then it will be even harder to do something about it.
One of the best books I have read in my life was "No Excuse!" by Jay Rifenbary. I highly recommend it and please feel free to ask me about how to put this in practice.
[Rifenbary] provides a concise plan for returning personal responsibility to our homes, at work, and in other areas of our lives. This book helps organizations and individuals return to this sense of ownership.
Living a long list of excuses won't get you anywhere. It's like you are building a wall around you that won't let you see properly. There will always be all kind of excuses to pick from your wall. Sure enough, you will never be able to give the best of you.
Clogged by hatred? Release it!
Only after you assume responsibility, good things start happening. By "good things", please understand I don't mean winning the lottery or finding true love. Being "fine" with yourself and your current situation (whatever this may be) is what comes after you release the energy flow that was previously clogged by hatred.
I can't think of any better attitudes than self-love and optimism towards life. If you are content with what you are, you'll shine. If you don't believe me, that's okay. Just give it a go and find out for yourself.

House is located in a lovely area. Great local pubs, restaurants and beaches. Kingsbridge, Totnes and Dartmouth within a 30 minute drive.
House is located in a lovely area. Great local pubs, restaurants and beaches. Kingsbridge, Totnes and Dartmouth within a 30 minute drive. Highly recommended.
It was warm, comfy and had exceptional facilities .The cottage was spick and span in fact the cleanest we have been to, and wonderful views from the lounge. it was so peaceful yet not isolated.The kitchen was very well equipped as well , in fact we wanted for nothing .The coach house cottage is exceptional and I must also thank Jan for the way she looks after it. Many thanks for a lovely lovely holiday which was much needed , thank you again.
The accommodation was beautifully appointed, the decor stunning and all mod cons you need. I definitely recommend staying in this property. To wake up to the views of the ocean was amazing.
Heating was good and you needed it in January Double bedroom small but manageable. You would not be disappointed with this property.
The kitchen had really everything one could think of.
Nice costal views and beach nearby. Good pubs in Dartmouth and Stoke Fleming.
The garden was enchanting. We had our breakfast there everyday. The house was clean but there were quite a lot spiders but they were harmless. Everything was nicely decorated. Over the bridleway we reached the beach in 20 Minuten where the Lime Coffee is. Great coffee and cake.
The facilities were good, though one practical suggestion would be to provide a better fridge (one with a freezing compartment and more shelves would have been helpful given the journey required to a supermarket for groceries).
A wonderful place to stay, with beautiful views across the bay. Everything has been so carefully thought out and there are some lovely thoughtful gestures, such as flowers, milk and biscuits. Although the weather was not good, we enjoyed our stay. We kept warm with the central heating and log burner, and enjoyed watching the ever changing views across the bay. The bed was extremely comfortable and we had some of the best sleep for some time. The kitchen and bathroom are really well equipped and there is also a washer/dryer. We enjoyed delicious meals at The Laughing Monk and at Venus Cafe on Blackpool Sands.The local store kept us up to date with information on transport, as the snow had closed some of the access roads. We also bought groceries from there too. Husband enjoyed walks every day, sometimes across to Torcross and Slapton. Everyone is so friendly and helpful, and he really appreciated the lift he was offered by a couple at the Farm Shop near Torcross. Would definitely consider stayin again.
The property is beautifully furnished and equipped and very comfortable and cosy. So much attention to detail and the provision of flowers, biscuits and milk was a welcome surprise. We arrived on a lovelyl sunny afternoon but by Sunday evening the snow and gales cut off access for a few of days. However the cottage is so cosy it was not a problem, we loved sitting and looking out over the sea and listening to the waves. Enjoyed walks along the beaches at Strete Gate and Blackpool Sands, and also walks across to Slapton and Torcross. Everyone is so friendly. The local shop was useful for emergency supplies and,we really enjoyed the food and the friendliness of the staff at Venus Cafe at Blackpool Sands, and at The Laughing Monk. A beautiful property in a stunning part of the country and we will definitely consider returning. Many thanks to everyone at Helpful Holidays.

Terrific views too from the private, good-sized, enclosed garden with lawn and patio (table/chairs).
Inside, elegant and relaxed with natural linens and gentle hues.
Front door to stairs up to open-plan living/dining/kitchen with woodburner, TV/DVD and views to Start Point in one direction and the mouth of the Dart estuary in the other.

Downstairs, two bedrooms - a pretty double, and a single.
Bathroom (bath, separate shower, washbasin).
A fabulous, romantic coastal spot at any time of year. Strete: cliff-top village (good food pub, restaurant, PO/shop) ½ mile walk from a shingle beach.
Coast Path walk to secret cove (¾ mile).
Blackpool Sands (coarse sand, The Venus Café, Restaurant, Takeaway and Watersports), 1½ miles, and, a mile away, the magnificent crescent of Slapton Sands and Slapton Ley nature reserve (birdwatching, walks).
Dartmouth (restaurants, cinema, river trips, steam railway), 5 miles.
Two ground floor bedrooms: 1 x double, 1 x single. Bathroom with bath, separate shower, WC, basin. Utility room. First floor open plan living space with seating area with wood burning stove, dining area and kitchen.
Strete is a village looking over Start Bay just south of Dartmouth. The hills and countryside that encircle the village to the west converge on the memorable coastline forming one of the most visually striking images in the South Hams. There is a post office and general store in the village along with a lovely church plus the well renowned Laughing Monk restaurant. There is a small community area where you can picnic and walk your dog with its wildlife section and notable views of Start Bay. A few short miles in either direction brings you to the magical crescent shaped family beach at Blackpool Sands and the three mile stretch of Slapton Sands. Dartmouth lies on the banks of the beautiful River Dart estuary in the popular and picturesque South Hams area of South Devon. Located within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and close to the coast, Dartmouth is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Devon.


On my Magic Kingdom day I headed over to the Wilderness Lodge to join a meet-up for a photo walk of the holiday decorations at the Magic Kingdom Resorts. When you are already at the Magic Kingdom, your quickest option for getting to the Wilderness Lodge is one of the boats sailing the Seven Seas Lagoon. I always love the views you get from being on the water, especially when the sun and sky combine to create some drama.

The 2018 Venom movie from Sony Pictures is shaping up. Now that Tom Hardy is ready to don the deadly symbiote suit, he's going to need someone to fight, and that villain will reportedly be Carnage. While they're not likely to go full-hero mode, a la "Agent Venom," a newer take on the character where he was a heroic super-soldier, it does seem like we'll probably at least get "Lethal Protector," the 90s Venom, who fought to protect the innocent, but more in a Punisher style "let's murder lots of people to save other people" than say Spider-Man's M.O.
The news of Carnage coming to Venom was revealed in a THR spotlight about Spider-Man: Homecoming and Sony's plans to push out into their own Spidey-centric film universe. Recent reports have been muddied, but it seems as though their Spider-Verse will be MCU-adjacent; it won't necessarily be in the MCU, but it won't directly contradict it either. The hope from Sony is also to have Tom Holland in the film (and other spin-offs) though to what extent is unknown. Carnage had been previously rumored as a villain not just for this Venom movie, but the first time a movie was put into development for the character several years ago, during the last film incarnation of Spider-Man.
Carnage, aka Cletus Kasady, debuted in 1991's Amazing Spider-Man #344, and got his symbiote a year later in #360. Unlike Eddie Brock, the primary host of Venom, Kasady has basically no moral compass. He was a psychopath and a serial killer before he got an ultra-powerful alien symbiote. He is, however, directly connected to Brock and Venom - when the Venom symbiote freed Brock from prison, his cellmate collected the symbiote's offspring for himself - yeah, that was Kasady, naturally. Colored red, Carnage's name is also his goal - to kill and wreak carnage all over the place - that's really all he cares about.
What this means for the Venom film is that we'll likely have some real bloodbaths, and some crazy symbiote-vs-symbiote fights that should be a lot of fun. No casting was reported, rumored, or suggested in the THR report. They did, however, mention Silver & Black, the female-led team-up between Silver Sable and Black Cat, as well as films in early development centered on Kraven the Hunter and Mysterio, another pair of villains.
Venom is in pre-production now for a October 5, 2018 release.


"Drink beer, cure cancer," says the cheerful crowd, and that's exactly what the San Diego Festival of Beer is all about. People having a good time, for a good cause.
What is the San Diego Festival of Beer?
The San Diego Beer Festival is not just an event for beer enthusiasts, it's a fundraiser produced by volunteers, with all proceeds benefiting local charities. The event is also a place for breweries to promote their newest craft blends!
The festival has a colorful past. The SDFoB was first held in 1994, and was funded by a national organization, whose volunteers planned the event. The initial event saw 700 participants, and 200 volunteers, and was a great success.
After that first year, the national organization stepped down, and the volunteers formed and founded the San Diego Professionals Against Cancer (SDPAC). During the early years, the festival was held on the Embarcadero North.
In the beginning, the event was held on a Saturday, but it was moved to a Friday night to entice the working downtown crowd to stay, and have a beer. The festival is now held on the Broadway Pier, which has a limited capacity. Throughout the night, they still anticipate over 2,500 attendees.
The move from downtown has been one of SDFoB's biggest challenges. They saw their largest crowds then, and raised the most funds those years. That being said, they were also challenged by the lack of beer culture in the 90's and early 2000.
San Diego hasn't always been the beer mecca it is known as today. Most people drank mass produced beers, until Sierra Nevada, Sam Adams, and local brewery Karl Strauss, came on the scene.
In 2011, there was a massive blackout that left the whole region in the dark, and the festival was in jeopardy. Volunteers wondered if anyone would show up, as questions like "will there be ice?" and "how do we keep this cold?" popped up. In the end, the turnout was terrific, and the event went off without a hitch.
Today's challenge is the amount of festivals popping up, and over promotion on social media. There is only one true San Diego Festival of Beer, but there are many imitations.
The purpose of the San Diego Festival of Beer is to celebrate life and have fun at the same time. Although SDPAC receives requests for funding, they also do their own research. Some of their greatest accomplishments so far, have been their valued relationship with Rady's Children's Hospital.
When other funders offer matching opportunities, it makes all the difference in the world. Such as in 2012 when Ledcor Construction matched their $100,000, for a total of $200,000. To this date, the San Diego Festival of Beer has raised close to $700,000 for local cancer charities.
You don't want to miss this year's event. 2016 marks the 22nd year of the festival, and remains 100% volunteer produced, with 100% of proceeds going to charity. This year's fiesta offers unlimited 2 oz. beer samples, a variety of delicious food trucks, live music, and more!
The theme of 2016 is "Vote for Beer," and is a play on the crazy politics going on in the country. Participants are encouraged to don their Uncle Sam hats, along with some good ole' red, white, and blue. This year also features great music, and a brand new brewery.
The San Diego Festival of Beer is unlike any other. Not only is it a taste of San Diego history and way to sample excellent beer, it supports a good cause…and there's no better way to enjoy a beer, than to cheers to that!

This book contains everything Oscar has learned over the past year selling website notifications to business owners, laid out in a step by step formula that ANYONE can use to duplicate his results, and land $997/month clients over email. We designed this book to answer the most common question I am asked from struggling consultants and internet marketers: "Why can't you just show me what I actually need to do to earn money as a consultant?" There is no guesswork in this book… No time wasting 'figuring things out'. EVERYTHING is laid out in plain English for you to follow one step at a time. This package contains PROVEN copy & paste notification campaigns that will generate customers and sales for your new clients. These swipes will make YOU an authority on marketing with notifications, allowing you to command outrageous fees from the businesses that hire you to increase their sales.
Now, I can't take all the credit for this tell-all book. Oscar has spent the last 5 years selling mobile apps to business owners, and the last 12 months selling web notifications. In that time, he has become the leading expert in marketing over push notifications. This guide is all of the tricks and tactics he has learned the hard way, in the trenches with clients. This book cuts your learning curve from years to hours, allowing you to avoid all of the mistakes Oscar had to make to get where he is right now, and short cut your way to a 6 or even 7 figure income as a freelance consultant. Legally I can't guarantee you will make any money by purchasing this book, in fact most people who buy business opportunities do not make money. That is because most people don't follow the instructions and actually do the work involved. If you are the type of person who isn't willing to do any work, if you expect this to be some kind of magic 'get rich quick' button than please, do not buy this program.
Works with WordPress AND non-WordPress sites – Set up is easy, just install the included WordPress plugin OR install this system on non-WordPress sites in one line of code. The included walkthrough video will take you step-by-step on how to install this system on any site in 15 minutes. Use this hand holding video every time you set up a new client, or give this video to an outsourcer to do the work for you.
How Oscar's wife (who couldn't care less about consulting) sold notifications to her favorite nail salon in a casual conversation with the owner – Eliminate rejection, cold calling, and awkward sales situations by using these 'stealth sales' questions to build your client base quickly from businesses you are already familiar with (you can start an entire 6-figure consulting practice with this strategy alone).
Just imagine walking into any of these places like you do any normal day of the week, except today you use my 'NLP stealth sales question' to start a friendly conversation about your business, and walk out with a check.
Send notifications to every mobile device on the market as well as desktop computers through their browser… Apple iPhone and iPads, Google Android phones and tablets, Windows phones and tablets, Amazon Fire devices, and even desktop computers using Chrome, Safari, or Firefox (they don't even need their browser open to receive these notifications).
All notifications are sent without the customer having to install an app on their phone.
Segmenting allows clients to create more effective and targeted ads (which Oscar happily charges $500/month extra to handle for them).
Copy & paste proven notifications in any offline niche – Steal Oscar's campaigns to give your customers the best possible service or use them as a base to create your own fun, profitable campaigns for your clients. (This swipe file makes you an instant expert in any offline niche you target, allowing you to command the highest fees for your service.) BONUS: New notifications will be added to the program monthly so you are always up to date.
The 'business power hour' that is the best time to send lunch notifications for restaurant clients – Send out notifications for delis and other lunch stops at this time to make your clients THE go-to lunch spot for local workers.
The unusual time to send dinner notifications to book reservations for restaurant clients – Oscar found the sweet spot time to book the most dinner reservations for restaurant clients and it is NOT when you would expect (he found a sweet spot when most people start getting hungry yet BEFORE they start looking for reservations online.) Restaurants will pay you huge fees just to run this one campaign for them.
How to use notifications to sell clients on the service – Oscar is including his swipe file of push notifications that he uses to sell business owners on hiring him, as well as the timing schedule to maximize their effect. Follow these instructions and you will hit them at EXACTLY the right time of day when they will be eager to pick up the phone and call you… Try this on your own and you'll likely BLOW your chance at making a sale.
Help local retailers beat their BIGGEST competitor: Amazon. Sending a desktop push notification at the right time to a retailer's customers with the right message can get them to drop what they are doing and rush to your clients store (HINT: Send notifications when people are most likely to be shopping online with a better deal for visiting your client's store.) Nothing scares a small retail store like Amazon.com, and nothing will get them sold more than a way to steal back customers.
Fact: 90% of affiliates mail their list for a product launch at the WRONG time, when their prospects are too busy to read a sales letter and buy a product. Send a notification at the exact time in this guide to get customers buying products from YOUR affiliate link even without having a list. I was shocked when Oscar showed me this trick… He's swiping commissions right out from under even the best internet marketing gurus.
How Oscar gets paid a premium fee to prevent him from working with client's competition – You can charge clients 3-4 times the normal rate when agreeing to work with them exclusively. This is the best way to earn more money while working with fewer clients.
Use 'magician' timing to know how often you can send notifications to customers – Magicians always keep their audience wanting more…and when you send push notifications at the right frequency, your clients customers will be left wanting another deal, looking forward to your next message, and actively click on them to see the deal inside.
How to generate hot leads using push notifications – Lawyers, accountants, insurance brokers, mortgage brokers are all hungry for leads for their business. Use push notifications to become their secret weapon lead source. Once they start receiving the leads you generate, they won't be able to throw money at you fast enough.
Why Specializing in one offline niche can command the highest offline fees – If you have a heart condition do you go to your regular doctor, or do you hire a heart specialist at twice the cost? Specializing your consulting to just one niche will allow you to focus on providing the best service to that niche and command a MUCH higher fee than working as a general consultant (perfect for those who want to work with fewer clients at higher fees). You can specialize in any niche from restaurants, contractors, retail stores, financial professionals, fitness centers and classes, dog grooming centers… any niche you have a real passion for helping.
How Oscar overcomes price objection WITHOUT lowering his monthly fees – Use this pricing tactic to close clients that are on the fence and make them feel like they owe you a favor for giving them a deal (Oscar eats at many of his client's restaurants on the house because of this) HINT: Flexible 'Set Up Fees' let you bargain WITHOUT changing your monthly price.
The 'breaking news' notification trick that can generate leads for attorneys, finical pros, and other 'white collar' type businesses – Professional office type clients have the highest customer value out of any business and can afford to pay 2-3 times as much as a smaller local business. With this sales tactic YOU will become the secret weapon that drives leads into their business.
The scarcity notification that gets customers to drop what they are doing and find out about your clients offer – Use this NLP trick to make customers feel like they are missing out on the deal of a lifetime if they don't click your ad and visit your client's location. Caution: Only use this trick once every few months for a client so it does not get burned out, and continues to pull in hordes of customers for your client.
The 3 types of business you should NEVER Take on as a client – Don't ever take on these types of businesses as client's no matter how much they offer to pay you. Fail to heed this warning you will have to deal with bad checks, clients who 'shop' your service around to make you lower your fees. constantly haggle on your price, and will never fully appreciate what you do for them. You may have to turn down paychecks, but you will be happier and live a better 'business lifestyle' dealing with clients who show you respect, and will go out of their way for you when you need it.
Proven email templates to reach out to prospects and turn them into sales – These templates sell your service, your fees, and direct the clients to a demo to get them sold. Never deal with a prospect who is undecided or will reject your offer… Only deal with prospects after they are sold and ready to buy from you. This also means that you do not need any sales or copywriting experience. Just make sure you use these templates EXACTLY as they are written, only adding your name and contact information. Trying to figure this out on your own will only repeat the mistakes Oscar made when starting out. Let his experience and proven templates cut your learning curve from years to minutes.
This rolodex is perfect for when you are ready to scale your consulting business into a local empire while you work less.
How to use notifications to get customers to leave positive reviews for a client on YELP – Do you offer reputation management to clients? Push notifications can be used to triple a business' 5-star reviews practically over night (A flood of 5-Star reviews will instantly drown out ANY bad press or reviews a business may currently have).
Want to see Oscar's system in action? I'll do you one better…Try it for free!
With my 60 day 'triple' guarantee you can try this system for a full 60 days on me. If at any time during the next 6 days you decide this isn't for you…If you don't book at least 3 consulting clients paying you $997/month or more…Or even if you just don't like my color choices in the book… Any reason at all…Send me an email with the word 'refund' and I will send you back every penny…With no questions and no hassles. You even keep the book and all the bonuses. Sound fair enough? You need to move fast on this right now though, the early bird pricing is going to disappear fast.
OPTION #3: Get started right now, from day one, with a UNIQUE "done for you" system (complete with quick-start training you won't find anywhere else) that gets you to expert level (and the kind of cash flow most rookie consultants only dream about) faster than you ever thought possible.
A: Yes! Oscar's free software will work for you outside the U.S. so you can cash in no matter where you live. All the details are provided in the course.
A: Everything you need to get started selling notification services to local businesses is included in this program. NO Additional purchase is needed to make money! After purchasing you will have the option of buying extra sales materials to help you grow your business.
A: Yes! In fact, Oscar was one of my private students before launching this course. I will partner with you and help you launch a product of your own similar to Oscars. The cost of this coaching program is $2,500. If you are interested (and can afford my fee) give me a call and I will give you all the details 212-203-0374.
A: NO! You can get started selling this to business owners with no other out of pocket expense. The notification service itself is free, and you can use free WordPress hosting to set up your demo sites.
A: There is no guarantee you will make any money when trying to sell services to business owners, in fact most new consultants don't make any money at all because they take little action and give up quickly. That said, Oscar and his students have been earning anywhere from a few thousand dollars per month to over 7 figures a year selling notification services to local business owners.
Whether you want some extra spending money each month, or maybe help paying bills. Or maybe enough money to take an extra vacation with the family each month, replace a day job, or even build a web notification consulting EMPIRE… This system is your way to get there. Warning: Don't try to figure this out on your own Oscar learned this business the hard way: through trial and error with his client's customers. Sending notifications the wrong way, like most business do, will only generate spam complaints, yelp complaints, and unsubscribes. Using Oscar's guide you will not only cut your learning curve, you will avoid the embarrassment of screwing up a campaign for a client because you will have proven templates, timings, and sales pitches ready to work for you in any business situation.
If you still haven't clicked the "Add To Cart" buttone to get started yet…Think about this: the faster you get started attracting clients to this brand new service… the EASIER it's going to be to establish yourself as the "go-to" expert in your area – the kind of high-ground advantage that pays off year after year while any competitors struggle to keep up in your wake…And if you take action now… you can make 2018 the year you finally forget all about the usual "struggles" of Internet marketing – and all the pressure of "What market should I get into? What if it doesn't work? What do I sell?"…begins to feel like a distant memory. You're now one of the few online marketers (so far) "in the know" about where web notifications are going this year… and now that you're on the inside of this massive trend…and know exactly how to profit from it…what are you going to do about it?

Let me talk you into wanting God over food or other idols. I have spent most of my life reasoning with people who think they are going to miss the food, and scared that they will be bored or have the emptiest days ever. Turning to God from idols should not even be a competition, and it is not a contest. Do you not WANT to desire less food? Do you not want to be someone who has self-control with the food? So then, stop thinking about the food. Get your mind onto anything but food, and especially think about the commands of God. If your heart only knew that God was going to let you get hungry again and that He was going to feed you again! He is a Great Shepherd who loves to feed His sheep physically and spiritually. In fact, the picture of a shepherd is of one who spends all day looking for a great place for the sheep to feed. Look to Him for guidance on when to start eating and when to stop. You have got to come to know how good He will be to you if you seek Him.

Q: Am I crashing ctypes or libFLAC? I have found a way to crash either libFLAC or ctypes through the use of threading, but how can this be possible? I don't remember ever reading that ctypes isn't thread-safe and libFLAC 1.2.1 is explicitly thread-safe.
Anyway, consider the program below. Towards the end there is a "for i in range()" loop. Setting the range to 1 works fine, but increasing it causes more and more SIGSEGV until the program never produces any output. Then, if you comment out the "from threading import ..." and instead enable the "from multiprocesseing ...", all the problems go away completely no matter how many instances you start concurrently.
Can anyone tell me what is going on here? Am I using ctypes incorrectly somehow?
