I recently read a fascinating research article on "The NEW Rich in America" otherwise known as "The Middle Class Millionaires."

Check this out...

The number of Americans with net worths upward from $1 million to $10 million has risen to 8.4 million, representing nearly 8% of US households and is growing at an incredible rate of 15% per year! Only one decade ago that number was only 1%, an 800% increase.

Any home business owner, entrepreneur or sales professional can multiply their income by at least 10x almost overnight and own more autonomy, independence and security than ever before by understanding the following "Big 5" breakthroughs in business.

"Big 5" Breakthrough # 1:

Who Is Your Business For?

Do you know? Believe it or not, most don't.

Will you be a better, more educated marketer in 2008 than you were in 2007?

Off course you will. And this article will help. BIG time. '3 BIG' times even...

There's a critical 3-tier approach to any successful marketing plan that unfortunately, most people will never know.

Having a clear understanding of 'The BIG 3' will make or break your marketing campaign so pay very close attention.

I figured I'd pose my question to you this way since we're right in the middle of baseball season in this country and it looks as if the all time 'Big League' baseball home run record will be broken this summer. Major milestone.

So let's see of it's 90 feet to first base for you or 60 feet.

Here's why I ask...

When people start setting up their Home Business and begin to market online, they usually look to cut costs wherever they can.

I just returned from a very exclusive internet marketing seminar / charity event in Los Angeles, CA recently and I must say there was more raw talent and wealth in one room than I think I may have ever seen. Quite an honor to be there for sure.

I'm basically going to share my notes with you, so to speak from this exclusive one day event. The key note speaker for the day created a $20 million dollar per year online brand in 6 years.

If you're building your home business on a budget or if you're looking for more creative ways to market, I have a real effective 'unsung marketing hero' for you. And it's FREE:

Online forums.

Forums are online communities where individuals can discuss topics ranging from business to fishing to sports. Discussions are conducted by posting notes to the forum.

So I was at my favorite Starbucks the other day down here in South Beach, Miami doing some work as I often do a few days a week. Being a Home Business Owner is great but sometimes you just need to get out of the home office once and awhile to mix things up a bit. Not to mention, Starbucks resembles a virtual office environment more and more these days.

I attended a very exclusive wealth conference in San Diego last week and one of the keynote speakers did a segment on treating your home business like a real business NOT like a hobby.

Sounds odd right? Who on earth starts a business and doesn't treat it like a real business? You'd be surprised...

To my surprise and to the surprise of just about every other entrepreneur at the conference, the IRS is not too thrilled with this approach either.

This topic is a favorite of mine. I'm about to share with you a very, very vital (yet overlooked) technique that never fails. That's right. Never fails. I always stress this technique when I'm coaching new Home Business Owners and Entrepreneurs. Works like a charm.

As a matter of fact, I'm even giving you some homework this weekend because I think the dog days of summer may be getting the best of you and I want to keep you sharp.

The more I study modern day, 21st century marketing the more I realize that EVERYTHING is marketing.

From the words in a TV or newspaper advertisement, to the words on magazine covers, to the words on a cereal box. It's all about WORDS, right? Words designed to get you to take action. And that my friend, is marketing.

Pay close attention next time you go to the grocery store or the drug store.
