Next, we discuss how being spiritual and trusting your instinct can lead you to financial success. Then, we explore whether or not capitalism is still the best way to go for small business owners. What about a new concept called Benevolent capitalism? After, we’ll tell you why your webinars stink and we’ll tell you how to collect thousands of new leads by doing webinars effectively. Finally, we’ll explore why some people can find the hidden solutions that are all around us and some people can’t.
