The 5 Best Business Books For Entrepreneurs!

Hi, we're Shane & Jocelyn Sams.  Are you looking for something different?  You've found it!  Welcome to The Flipped Lifestyle Podcast!  We are a real family who makes our entire living online, and we help other people do the same! Flip Your Life with online business!  We built a million dollar online business selling digital products and starting membership sites over the internet (people pay us to email them stuff...seriously).  Our Internet business changed our family's future, and it could change your family's too!  Imagine making hundreds of extra dollars each month.  Would that change your life?  Could you use that extra money to pay your mortgage, get out of debt, give your kids a better Christmas, or even take that vacation you've been putting off?  You can, and it’s probably easier than you think.  We are a real family from Kentucky that makes a living entirely through internet marketing.  This podcast is about how we make money online through Internet business, and how it lets us live a lifestyle other people can hardly imagine.  Our goal is to help other families create, market, and sell digital products on the internet.  Selling digital products helped us earn more money, have breathing room in our budget, and eventually quit our regular jobs.   We've seen the power of online business first hand, now we want to help you see it too!

Mark has played drums and percussion for a living, where he has gotten the opportunity to tour the UK, Europe and the United States. He had also found teaching to be his other passion at age 40, thanks to his children. Mark is also part of the National Association for Primary Education in the UK which helped him understand the issues surrounding people involved in education, not just the amount of work and stress closely tied to this profession, but also because of certain limitations in the school system makes it difficult for them to deliver the kind of learning the children deserve. His podcast, Education on Fire, helps fellow educators discuss ideas and share resources online. But having the freedom to pursue his passion for music and teaching doesn’t come without a price. You see, time flexibility can be a double-edged sword. When you agree to one opportunity, you will have to turn down another, simply because you can’t be in two places at the same time and exert the same amount of effort to accomplish two different tasks. Being a father, professional musician, primary school teacher AND a podcaster is no easy task. Pursuing his music or teaching career will have its own benefits, but he has found great interest in podcasting and how it can help him have the freedom to spend more time with his family. He has already found a good audience through sharing his insight as a primary school teacher on his podcast, so how can that help him make money online? If you wanna know how we helped Mark, then don’t miss this episode, we’re going to dive deep into several fantastic points that will help take his online business to the next level and it can help you too!

The Power of Pursuing Your Passion!

David's blog, aTexasCowboy.com, started to attract audiences in no time! Hundreds of people enjoyed his posts — it was a surprisingly huge hit. But here’s the thing, David is quite the perfectionist. He has zero tolerance for poor grammar and takes great care to proofread his work at least 10 times before even hitting “Publish.” Juggling an unmonetized blog with his already demanding profession didn’t feel like a path he wanted to keep pursuing, so he inevitably threw it to the back-burner. But despite not updating their website, his audience stayed. So, they started a Facebook page called, “Through The Eyes of a Cowboy.” And it was another instant hit! Years roll by and now David is struck with a new realization: He can’t keep training horses forever, not at this level and not when he is getting older. He’s got the expertise, he’s got the audience and now, comes the question… HOW DO THEY MAKE MONEY ONLINE? Join us as we help David refine his avatar and share our content creation strategies to turn his ideas into lead magnets and offers. Are you stuck figuring things out by yourself? Then saddle up, it’s time to take action and get this show on the road! We would love to have you as a member of The Flipped Lifestyle Community!
