I've done it again! DeanLForbes.com has taken it to another level. Now, officially incorporated, Dean L. Forbes, LLC has stepped up the game by revamping the look and feel of the entire website.
And… this is just the beginning…
In the next few weeks, I'll be making some milestone changes specifically aimed at serving you in more effective ways. I decided to start with the look and feel because it just didn't represent me to the fullest. For starters, the website was missing my favorite color – BLUE!
So, I thought it was time to really inject a bit more of ME into the website. Certainly, this blog is for you – my gift – however, I felt it was important that it represent the true me as much as possible. Hence – the sea of blue you now see… you likes…
Be sure to browse the pages as I have added some new ones including some testimonials from some gracious attendees who have attended one or more of my programs. It was awesome to share this feedback because they are true testaments to why I do what I do. I am so humbled by the words that so many have used to describe their experiences either with the blog, my programs or me personally. It's an incredible feeling!
What's Next?
Coming soon… I will be updating the website to include other resources, tools and products that will further help you to fast track your personal growth and meet your ultimate goals. These updates will most definitely include everything that I have in the armory that has been successful and continues to be to this day.
To mention a few, I will be adding my favorite books, speakers and special items that can help you achieve the results you desire more quickly and effectively. Please note that none of these will be quick-fixes – you know we don't believe in that here. However, all the resources, tools and products made available to you through DLF.COM are guaranteed to help you significantly improve your success rate in all your endeavors if you choose to utilize them.
One thing to make clear is this…
I will never endorse any resource, tool or product unless it has been personally reviewed and/or tested by me. The only other time that I may endorse a resource, tool or product that I haven't reviewed or tested is if I can interview others who've been successful with it, report their story and then let you know how I came by the information. Essentially, unless the proof is in the pudding, DLF.COM will not endorse it.
Monetizing the Blog
Major changes that you will soon see on the blog are more ads by Google and other reputable companies. Not to worry, DLF.COM will only support relevant ads and will refrain from posting and/or remove any that are not relevant. The whole point of this website is to make sure that you are served in every way possible and in the most effective and efficient ways possible. Nothing less will suffice… so suffice it to say that if it doesn't work for you, it won't stick around very long.
Why monetize?
Since all the information on this website is provided for FREE, one of the major ways to keep the lights on is to advertise. Besides, I do believe in receiving a fair price for the value I provide and as such, monetization of the blog is necessary.
Ultimately, my goal is to spend all my time finding ways to continue to create and deliver value to others – to you. In order to do that, I am definitely going to have to make some cheese doing this otherwise I may as well turn the lights off right now.
People are from different schools of thought on this issue; many believe that a website that provides free information shouldn't have advertising on it. Sounds nice… and with all due respect to other people's opinions, that's just it – it just sounds nice.
Sure you can certainly maintain a website without advertising or monetization; however, that isn't me. Quite frankly, we live in a physical world with real physical needs; and while I don't do this for the money, I still have to make sure that I can maintain a physical existence while I am doing it. If I can't maintain a physical existence, I certainly can't do this.
Also, as I mentioned above, this is now an official corporation – Dean L. Forbes, LLC which means Uncle Sam will be coming for his piece of the pie every year whether I make money or not. Now you know as well as I do that you may be able to duck Uncle Sam but he always catches up to you. Just ask some of you now forgotten and bankrupt celebrities…
Why tell you all of this?
Simple, this blog as I have said numerous times is truly my gift to you and while I am the steward of the vehicle, I still want you to know and understand what happens to it. I think it is important that you know how your gift is treated, maintained and how it evolves. It's not that you need to know; it's simply that you ought to know.
Also, it helps me to hear your comments and feedback if you do have any to share. I am always interested to hear from you about how I can improve the website to make it even more beneficial and effective for you.
If you have comments or feedback, please visit the contact page and send me a message. I am truly grateful for your thoughts.
Ok, that's all for now… go browse and check out the new look and feel; read more articles and share them with your friends, family and colleagues. The more you read and share the more we grow and thrive. Thank you for all your love and support.
More to come very soon so stay tuned…
P.S. A lot of you submitted your thoughts on what topics I should write about for article #100 and I haven't forgotten. Although this news update about the website will technically go in as #100, we'll consider it #99a for all intents and purposes. Article #100 will be up shortly – I hope you enjoy it. Thanks.
