    Social Entrepreneurship: Planning for Profits for Your Business AND a Cause

    Today's show was all about Social Entrepreneurship, which involves designing your business in such a way that both the business and a cause near and dear to your heart profit. It is the ultimate win-win-win venture, because people support an important cause simply by doing business with you.

    One example we talked about on the show is Tom's Shoes.  When you buy a pair of shoes, a pair is given away. And when you're done with the shoes, you bring them in and get a discount off your next pair. The shoes have a story.

    The Peace Seed, Ronda Del Boccio's  upcoming mini-book, is an example of social entrepreneurship. When people purchase the book, they are also donating to Ten Million Clicks for Peace. There are directions inside the book to pass it along. The book will be sold in bundles to make this easier.

    The old model of charitable giving is that an organization lives on donations and grants. Grants are limited and cause a feeding frenzy and scarcity mentality, because they compete for limited funds.  Social entrepreneurship is the perfect abundance proposition, because everybody wins and there is no scrapping.

    Imagine how problems people can solve by adopting this model? If even 10% of business owners (on-and-offline) operated under this model, millions of lives would change for the better.

    The Bachelor's Program teaches you the strategic way to build a solid business.. Why not plan a social entrepreneurship model? Visit http://askggg.com/bachelors to get started.

Extras

Prior to a disabling car accident, I had an extremely busy legal career as a litigator. But when the accident left me unable to get out of a hospital bed and wheelchair for almost 10 years, I turned to the internet as a way to spend my time and afford my medical bills.


That was in 1996 and I've been full time online ever since!


Most marketers online know me as "The JV Queen" because of my many years of organizing some of the biggest product launches on the internet. It was through the experience of working with well-known experts such as Shawn Casey, Willie Crawford, Henry Gold, David Garfinkel, and many more, that I gained the knowledge and insight into what drives sales and profits on the internet today.


Today, as the Founder & Dean of DirectionsU.com (formerly "TheIMUniversity.com") and creator of 30DayIMChallenge.com, I am a coach and mentor to entrepreneurs looking to build a business using the power of the internet. Whether the internet is the your only presence or your secondary presence, my information products and coaching programs can show you how to get bigger results, faster.


My areas of expertise include:

* Mindset
* Strategic Planning for your Online Business Presence
* Product Creation and Planning
* Joint Ventures and Strategic Alliances
* Strategic Traffic Generation
* Strategic List Building
* Web 2.0
* Blogging
* and many other aspects of building a business using the power of the internet.


My mission is to help 1,000,000 entrepreneurs learn to live the life of their dreams through owning their own business, by the year 2013.
