Or, if you’re like me, just go to your twitter and re-tweet it (easy). If you want to help us gain critical mass, tweet our updates. If you’re a Twitter user, re-tweeting our AspireNow announcements is a tremendous help. Whenever we announce something, you can automatically tweet our posting by going here:

(editor's note:) This feed is temporarily not working right - I'm in contact with twitterfeed to figure out what's wrong. I don't want to create another feed, because then I'll have two feeds going into twitter, so, bear with me. In the meantime, just add/follow AspireNow (http://www.twitter.com/aspirenow) from your twitter account. I'll let you know when we get this fixed.

Share AspireNow’s twitter tinyurl on Facebook or Myspace

You can also post that you’re reading posts on your Facebook or Myspace “What are you doing now” area or on your WALL. These comments DO get read. You have to be a member of Twitter to do this, but hey, Twitter's a groovy way to stay connected.

Buy Your Blogger A Cup of Coffee

Go Ahead, Make My Day!

Okay, so those of you who know me well know I rarely drink coffee (I'm a tea drinker)!

However, it still MAKES MY DAY when I see someone has chipped in with a donation towards my efforts as a blogger. Not sure why it is, but receiving "Pennies from Heaven" always makes me smile. Frankly, blogging often seems a bit like leading a musical band (mostly a thankless job, ha!). I continue to post articles and yes, I know people read them when I get comments, but it isn't really like there's an instant gratification thing that happens when you click "publish" with each new post.

So, if you're enjoying this blog, why not chip in to eliminate "Blogger Blues" and help boost your Blogger's morale by voting not just with your voice of approval, but also with a small PayPal donation. It helps me cover the cost of my time developing additional resources to share with you here at AspireNow.

Wait, there's more: I was watching PBS and decided to copy them and offer you GIFTS for donating to my cause. Cool, huh? Yep, these products normally cost you money, but for a limited time I'll include them as a bonus gift for your contribution to AspireNow:

Here's the easiest ways to do it (share more than a cup of tea, and I'll share with you, too)!

Donate $1 to AspireNow and make me smile.

Donate $5 to AspireNow and make me smile bigger!

Donate $10 to AspireNow; make me smile, get an inspirational quote and postcard ($5 value).

Donate $50 to AspireNow; make me smile, get an e-book about Success Secrets from Millionaire Superstars + inspirational quote and postcard and 1 Best of AspireNow Radio CD ($29.95 value).

Donate $250 to AspireNow: make me smile, get an e-book about Success Secrets from Millionaire Superstars, an inspirational postcard, a 3-CD set of Best of AspireNow Radio, and the AspireNow: Methods to Discover Your Life Purpose e-workbook ($149 value).

Donate $1,000 to AspireNow: make me smile, get a bonus e-book about Success Secrets from Millionaire Superstars, an inspirational postcard, a 3-CD set of Best of AspireNow Show, and the AspireNow: Methods to Discover Your Life Purpose e-workbook, 2 hours with Scott Andrews 1-on-1 coaching ($549 value).

Donate $5,000 to AspireNow: make me smile, get a bonus e-book about Success Secrets from Millionaire Superstars, get a 3-CD set of Best of AspireNow Radio, and a free download of AspireNow's Methods To Discover Your Purpose e-workbook, and 5 hours with Scott Andrews 1-on-1 coaching ($1,110 value).

Donate (fill in the amount) to AspireNow and I'll offer whatever seems cool to offer you.

Note: I appreciate anything you decide to share, and I'm grateful you care enough to show it.

If you've been reading this blog or listening to our free radio show regularly and enjoying what we do, like the song from "My Fair Lady" don't just tell me, SHOW me! (hee hee hee)

Thanks for your support and I'll be chatting (or blogging) with you again soon.

~ Scott

P.S. - I'll be offering a bonus teleconference for anyone who chips in towards AspireNow's Blog this month (August 2008). There will be a secret password to join this call, where I'll be sharing several new secrets of building the life of your dreams with you.

Want to Guest on AspireNow: Seriously Fun Self-Help Radio Show?

We're seeking guests for the AspireNow: Seriously Fun Self-Help Radio Show.

The AspireNow: Seriously Fun Self-Help Radio Show details and examples:

Scott Andrews, Founder of AspireNow.com, hosts the show on Tuesdays at 5:00 PM PST. You can hear other shows, where we’ve had guests like Michelle Casto, Eva Gregory, and others, at http://www.talkshoe.com/tc/37792 or simply visit http://www.AspireNow.com. We don’t charge for the show; however, we DO request you promote to your list TWO times – once before we air and once AFTER we post the show online. AspireNow retains the copyright to the show although we do authorize complete show linkage or posting the green player on your site or blog.

What's our requirement? Basically, you need to (a) have a name in the industry, (b) established yourself as an "expert" on your topic, and (c) have a list of 3,000 or more you can promote the show to. The last detail, obviously, is the most important. The bigger your list and the promotion effort you put into helping us get the word out, the higher odds you'll be invited back to additional show appearances.

AspireNow Show Agreement:

You agree to appear on a 45 minute show per your scheduled date – up to an hour if we have a lot of questions at end of show.

There is no charge to appear on the AspireNow: Seriously Fun Self Help show at this time.

AspireNow.com retains copyright. You have right to rebroadcast show (in entirety) or post links to show at your blog, website, or newsletters. You authorize AspireNow.com or ARRiiVE: Innovations In Business to rebroadcast your show and to release a special promotion CD of the show, or segment of the show, for sale at a future date and time, at our discretion.

You agree to promote the show at least 1 day prior to the show and again after the show has been broadcast. This is one of our strategies for growing our show audience (cross-pollination!)

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless AspireNow, Scott Andrews, and producers for any perceived harm or actual harm or loss caused by appearing on this broadcast.

Obviously, it is our objective to make you a star and that is our approach to this show. Other show guests have received contract orders, book sells, signings, and traffic as a result of appearing on the AspireNow show, and as the show grows that impact ought to continue. Some of the shows hosted by Scott Andrews have been downloaded over 4,000 times in one month, so if a show “takes off” it can be quite beneficial to the guest.

Another benefit of the show is you will receive an MP3 “reusable audio” file that can be broadcast as a “thank you” or special feature on a site, newsletter, blog, and such.

You also agree to provide the following information at least 2 weeks prior to the show, so Scott can be properly prepared as the show host:

Topic: (preferably optimized for SEO as this will be a header broadcast over multiple RSS feeds)

Keywords for your topic.

Topic Description.

1 Short Paragraph Bio.
8 Q’s to ask you on the show and 8 probable responses so I can follow and interject at appropriate moments.

Plug break: website, phone number, program you’d like me to plug – at least two plugs during the show

Special gifts: if you have any gifts, discounts, books, ebooks, or such you’d like to offer to our show’s guests or listeners.

Thanks and look forward to it!

Team AspireNow
P: 805-459-6939
