Happy Saturday!
I missed you yesterday! After my walk yesterday I started having ear problems, and by about 2 p.m. it was so annoying, and I couldn’t get in to my own doctor’s office, so I headed off to the emergency room. I was pretty much convinced that a bug had dropped in there or something on my walk, but after 7 hours of waiting, it turned out to be much less serious. More of an annoyance than anything else, and the doctor that treated me totally understood that! So I have medication to treat it, and hopefully things will clear up soon!
But I didn’t get home until after 9 p.m. last night, so it was much too late to think about putting a newsletter together.
I’ll make up for it today.
I’m pretty proud of myself today because I was back up and out walking again this morning. I had no idea that it was International Dog Day until I got home and saw a blurb about it, but I decided to head over to the park where I used to walk with Annie, and I couldn’t believe all the changes! I knew they did a beautification project along that whole street, and I have to say even though it was a pain in the neck when it was under construction, and it took 2 years more than it was supposed to, they did a really great job of cleaning up the street and make it a really nice place to walk, and to ride a bike.
I used to love walking over there early in the mornings, and just thinking about it makes me want to get my beach house quickly so that I can have a dog again. And now with all the benches it’s the perfect halfway point where I can stop and have a drink and rest my legs before continuing on.
Here’s what I have for you today…

Featured Partner Picks Today:
My pick for today is Crossword Puzzle Mastery from Ken Bluttman. I’ve long been a fan of Ken’s software products, and this one is no different. In fact, I think this may be my favorite so far. As I mentioned in the opening I used to have a crossword puzzle site many years ago, but it was such a pain to create puzzles that people actually wanted to solve, that it didn’t last very long.
So when I had a chance to pick up Ken’s new software, I jumped on it. And so far I am very impressed. I’ve been through about half the videos so far, and as a crossword puzzle user myself, I love that these actually look like “real” crossword puzzles that you’d find in the big newspapers and published puzzle books.
The main offer is on sale for $37 and includes:
- Full training shows how crosswords are constructed and provides dynamic grids for assembling the puzzles
- American (New York Times) style and British/UK style
- Step by step over the shoulder video training
- Save feature allows saving puzzles – partially done to be completed later, and completed ones too of course.
- Huge database of clues – over 3,000,000 to select from
- Sophisticated search features and wildcard pattern matching make finding words that fit a breeze
- Great for both kid level and adult level puzzles
- Crossword puzzles are downloaded as PNG files for easy use in other programs
The one thing I will say is that if you’re expecting a “push button” instant puzzle creator, then this is probably not what you’re looking for. You will have to put some thought into the puzzle creation process, but the huge database of clues and the search features take some of the sting out of the work. And the payoff is in the fact that a lot of people will realize there’s work involved and not do a dang thing with this, so if you do get it and USE it, you’re ahead of the game when it comes to publishing crossword puzzle books!
List Building & Email Marketing MasterClass: A.I. Edition from Kevin Fahey is on sale this weekend through Tuesday, August 29. I’ve been listening to this while I write the newsletter, and just watching what he does to use Chat GPT to automate this whole process is pretty freakin’ amazing. There are 28 videos in the entire course – I’ve only watched the A.I. one so far – that cover the whole process for creating an opt-in, creating an email followup, social media posts, and so much more.
Plug and Play Trello Toolkit from Cindy Bidar
If you like Trello, you’re going to love this collection of Trello boards that Cindy’s put together in her Plug-and-Play Trello Toolkit. For the first time, she’s bundled her most useful boards into one easy-to-access offer, and the price point is so sweet you’re not going to want to miss out.
Her brand new Plug-and-Play Trello Toolkit includes all the boards you need to:
- Plan your content marketing calendar (works for bloggers, podcasters or anyone (YOU!) who publishes content as a part of doing business).
- Organize your operating procedures so your entire team is always working with the most up-to-date processes.
- Organize and schedule your email campaigns (no more long gaps or “what the heck am I going to email today?” anxiety).
- Create new opt-in offers without missing a single critical step in the process.
- Develop good traffic driving habits to keep subscribers and sales coming in.
Plus, she’s recorded six video lessons to help you make the most of the boards, including:
- How to use power ups and automation to do more with your boards automagically.
- How to use the calendar power up for easy campaign planning.
- Two ways to use an SOP board to organize all your projects.
- How to add your own checklists and procedures to Trello.
Get the Plug-and-Play Trello Toolkit here for just $29 (no coupon required) and when you order before Sunday, you’ll also receive her course, “Organizational Mastery for Online Entrepreneurs” as a bonus.

PLR ON SALE! Mindset Reset from Coach Glue is one of my favorite products of theirs. It’s on sale this weekend through Thursday, August 31 for only $77 (reg. $297) with promo code 77.
The reason I love this so much is that it’s not a generic mindset workshop. It’s geared toward entrepreneurs and designing your business to work for you to keep you from feeling trapped and miserable. And I know I’ve been there before… and I’m sure you probably have too at some point. This is a great course to “learn and turn” by using it for yourself, as well as sharing it with your audience.
Here’s what your customers will learn from the content:
- Get past self-defeating habits like procrastination–even if they’ve never been able to get past them before.
- Make a commitment to changing what isn’t working for them–and this time, finding what really does.
- Determine what’s toxic in their business, their relationships and their own mindset–and what they need to ditch, delegate or simply look at differently.
- Gain more emotional energy to deal with everything in business and life (and physical energy if they want it, too!).
- Do more with their business–while simultaneously taking more time for themselves.
- Experience a massive uptick in gratitude, joy and fulfillment from their business–even if right now they can’t think of a single reason to stay self-employed.
