Running Multiple OmniFocus Databases [NerdWorthy]

Hey Gang.

Like many of you Mac users out there, I’m a huge huge believer in the all-mighty OmniFocus; but I live a somewhat double-life and needed an OmniFocus solution to match….

So I sent off a question to the team over at Omni Group to see  if there was a way to run two OmniFocus databases at once; so I could split me crime-fighting to-do’s and the GTD actions of my alter-ego… So I could open up each separate OmniFocus ‘version’ in isolation.

… and alas there was a solution:

Thanks for writing in! While you can run multiple databases in OmniFocus, there are some limitations- currently, you can only sync one database at a time (the default database located in ~/Library/Application Support/OmniFocus), and your perspectives are tied to the default database as well.

The easiest way to create another database is by making a copy of the “OmniFocus.ofocus” database file in ~/Library/Application Support/OmniFocus, renaming it, then removing all data from that duplicate to start fresh.

If you have any other questions or suggestions, please don’t hesitate to contact me. We really appreciate your support!

Well OmniFocus, I appreciate your support.

Outsourcing Made Easy

Hey Gang,

Are you the bottleneck in your business?

Marketing online (or off) is a “team sport” nowadays. But finding a team, and managing them, can be difficult. (A lot of people I know who are outsourcing are getting frustrated while their outsourcers miss deadlines and fail to get the quality of work done that’s truly needed.)

That’s why the guys over at Noble Samurai asked Davey J and I to put together a brand-new Video Series that reveals the RIGHT WAY to do Outsourcing.

They’ve just released the 2nd video which you can check out over at:

http://www.noblesamurai.com/blog/outsourcing/outsourcing-video-2-the-content-leverage-system-2761/.

In this video, I talk about:
●   How to become a market leader in your niche in just 30 minutes a day
●   How to systemize content creation to produce high-quality videos, audio and reports -– all on auto-pilot
●   Why you should only work on the core elements of your content creation, and outsource the ‘mechanics’
●   How to ethically hijack traffic from some of the most popular web properties like YouTube, iTunes and top article directories
●   The 11-step process that quickly and easily creates thousands of high-quality backlinks to your site
●   Plus much, much more!

You’re guaranteed to get some gold nuggets out of this free blog series.  If you want to know the secret of how to work ON your business rather than IN your business, you need to watch these two videos.

Enjoy,
Pete

Here’s What I’m Thinking


Hey Gang.

If you’ve been playing along at home and enjoying the podcasts for awhile, you’d be aware of the two PreneurCast podcast episodes that have stood out from the pack: the 7 levers episode and the mastermind episode.

Out of all the episodes Dom and I have recorded so far, these two got the biggest response of tweets and emails telling us how much they learnt and what they’ve got by implementing the strategies we shared.

So I thought I’d run an idea past you all.

What if we put the two powerful concepts together: the power of a structured weekly mastermind group of like-minded, goal-oriented entrepreneurs, mixed with the power the 7 levers can bring your business when implemented into your business over a structured 7-week period?

So what I’m thinking is a small mastermind group of maybe 6 or 7 PreneurCast listeners, myself and Dom – ok, so Dom doesn’t know this yet; but he’ll be on board…

…and we meet each week for around 90 minutes to work on each other’s business.

Every week over the 7-week period, we’ll delve deep into each one of the 7 levers, and mastermind how we can implement them in each person’s business.

We’ll cover:

●  increasing the traffic to your business
●  increasing the opt-in rate you’re currently getting
●  different strategies for skyrocketing your sales team’s conversion rates
●  ways to increase your average sales value (we’ll spend an entire week on this)
●  ways to make your customers buy per items per sale
●  …and some really cool and easy ways to increase the number of times your customers buy from you each year
●  plus a tonne more stuff which will result in your profits increasing.

…and the beauty of the 7 levers, as you know, is that we only need to increase each of the 7 elements by just 10% and it will result in the profits of your business almost doubling.

Let me say that again for you… if you haven’t already got it from listening to The 7 Levers PreneurCast episode.

Here’s what it will do for you.

If you just increase each of the 7 levers by just 10%, the profits you’ll be able to take from your business will almost DOUBLE.

That’s means in just 7 weeks, by increasing each of these 7 levers by just 10%, you’ll be taking home a bunch more cash each and every week.

This is going to be more than the typical ‘business development’ course you invest in, read and have to implement on your own… we’re going to get together EVERY week and work ON your business together to make sure to take action and implement what we cover quickly and effectively.

Now, there are three major factors that make this important to you and your business right now.

Firstly, with the economy in its current state, it’s vital for your business, whether it’s an online business, a service business or a bricks and mortar business, to make sure you are getting the most of what you’ve got. And that’s what the ’7 Levers’ are all about — maximising what you’re currently doing in your business. Getting just that extra 10% from each of the 7 levers which will result in your businesses profits almost doubling.

Mix that with the fact that the world is getting smaller which is making it easier for your competition to reach your clients and steal them from right under your noise. You need to have a proven system you can go to, rely on and implement in your business.

And with the power of online tech like GoToMeeting, we can conduct this effortlessly each week to make sure you not only get the lesson delivered directly to you no matter where you are, but we can easily communicate with the entire group during our mastermind calls.

So if you’re interested, here’s what you need to do.

Fire off an email right now to support [at] preneurgroup [dot] com with the subject line ’7 Levers Mastermind’.

As I said, we’re only going to have a handful of people in this mastermind group and it will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis.

Now, there will be an investment for this; but I can guarantee you it will not be anywhere near the $5000 I usually charge as a minimum for personal coaching. (Think Groupon-style discounts here.)

This will be the first mastermind-style group I’ve ever done as a ‘coaching group’…  I’ve participated in many groups, as I mentioned on the mastermind episode. It was a mastermind group that got me my first book deal, got me introduced to the team at Ernst + Young which resulted in me being a Southern Region Finalist in their Global Entrepreneur of the Year Awards and so much more…

I won’t be charging anywhere near what I charge for one-on-one; but I also know I’ll never charge anywhere near as low as this first mastermind group will cost.

So if you want to work with not only me, but Dom and a handful of other proactive entrepreneurs, shoot an email to support [at] preneurgroup [dot] com with the subject line ’7 Levers Mastermind’ and we’ll be in touch.

Pete

P.S.  And if you’re keen, there’s no obligation on any level; but we will fill the spots on a first-come, first-served basis. So email us right now to ensure you’re at the head of the pack.

I look forward to working with you to implement the 7 levers in your business. And if it’s not for you right now, Dom and I will catch you next week for another PreneurCast episode.
