Summary

The Six-Figure Second Income is about how to start or grow a business when you think you have plenty of strikes against you: You're short on time, low on money, in a highly competitive market, and the economy is weak.A year does not go by without someone proclaiming the death of one technology and the birth of a new "game changer". First the Internet would change everything; then it was getting listed in search engines; then "pay per click" systems were the way to go. Later, blogs were the rage, to be replaced by Twitter and thousands of other made-up media like fefoo, lifeblob, thoora, rowdii, xumii--and no doubt a dozen more since we wrote these words. What's a businessperson to do? Who can make sense of it all?The Six-Figure Second Income is one path through the maze. In the course of building an 8-figure real estate information marketing business, David Lindahl has tested dozens of tools and techniques and this book is centered around principles he has derived from all the tests he's run, tools he's used, and money he's spent (easily over $100,000 on consultants, mastermind groups, conventions, boot camps, and courses). The Six-Figure Second Income will "name names" of what works and what has not worked.
