I'm updating the CHATTEL REPORT-THE SPRINT TO FREEDOM. I still won't be selling it, you'll have to get it from one of the resellers.

But, just as a tease, to get some of you started thinking...here are three shops...all in the same little strip plaza at the end of my street...less than a half mile.

I'll be showing you dozens of places, all of them within 15 minutes of my house, that deal with chattel...that is PERSONAL PROPERTY...

Almost of all these places accept CONSIGNMENTS, which is the easy way to build networks, and especially for women who don't want strangers coming to your house...it is bad enough you encounter them on the Internet.

Take a look, and I'll have a little discussion below.



This is CONNIES.



and



OK.

In the Chattel Report I advised people to build networks.

We're going to be discussing that in much more depth at the Chatteler's Forum, a password forum FREE for those that have the Chattel Report, or will be buying the updated edition.

NETWORKS are the key. One of them. Consignment is hot, and if any of you are considering a nice little part time retail thing, consider a consignment shop. Other people's stuff. You get some money.

But I don't like the headaches of retail, the overhead, employees and all. Why not just chattel and use these kinds of shops to profit from.

Jim Straw gave me an idea, I now think of myself as a FINDER. And I collect a FEE whenever I hook up a buyer and a seller.

Now that may seem simplistic, but it is a whole new way of looking at the chattel game. Mike Rodman shared the story (below I think) of a fellow who made several THOUSANDS of dollars and never left his office.

He acted as a TOLL position (thank you Harvey Brody) and simply hooked up a buyer with a seller.

It happens everyday.

Now chattel is the easiest money making deal in the world to start. Sell your TV. And once that is gone, you have no need for the VCR either, right?

See, with consignment shops, you can have a garage sale, yard sale, attic sale, porch sale, whatever, and NO ONE ever comes to your house.

You just take your junk...uh...valuable chattel to a consignment shop and let them sell it for you. You may not make as much money as if you did it yourself, but you have no worries either.

Now, I like dealing directly with people. It is part game, part dance, part business. And if done right everyone wins.

Michael Ross recently presented me with a challenge, one which I'll share with you later this week.

But MY answer to his challenge would be CHATTEL.

I'll give that next week, after you all have had some time to work on his puzzle.

Seeds of Wisdom Publishing will be publishing works concerning all parts of life, not just making money stuff, although we hope to bring you a fair amount of TRIED and TESTED and PROVEN money making ventures.

As I posted below, I wanted to do it two years ago, but have been sidetracked. NOW, we can bring you those unique and unusual ways to make money.

We will do all the legwork for you, and track down the little known, hidden money makers in the world.

So, we not be able to become as great a Chatteler as Kirk did, but we can use it as a FOUNDATION to build a nice FRAMEWORK that allows us all to pursue other paths of life too.

The SQUARE ONE WORKSHOPS are also going behind closed doors, FREE to anyone interested, but WE are trying to get sowpub properly FOCUSED, and initial feedback indicates that SQ1 has such a niche appeal, that is how we are going to treat it for now.

Again, it will be available for FREE, but on a separate and private forum...

Thanks for all your support and contributions, it is FUN to evolve...which reminds me of a book I've just finished...

EVEolution, The Eight Truths of Marketing to Women by FAITH POPCORN...I think it is a must read for anyone who has women or wants them as customers.

I admit, I didn't get it all...but then I'm a guy.

Case in point: my teenage daughter was telling me about some guys she works with...and everytime a cool CAR comes by, they stop in mid-sentence and say..."Wow, what a cool car..." then go back to their conversation...

As she was telling me this we walked past a shoe store and stopped in mid-sentence and said "Wow what a cool pair of shoes"...then came right back to our conversation.

After getting some stationery, we stopped in the shoe store, but alas, no size 5's in the cool shoes.

YEA, I thought and no really cool CARS in the size of my wallet either!

We'll be talking about the differences in the sexes as it relates to chattel too.

Some women can make a fortune in chattel...

Stay tuned.
