    Ken, thank you for the invitation to drop by. There’s not many blogs I read regularly. Looks like you’ve got a shot at having one of the few that I do.

    Ken, thanks for the follow on Twitter and for the opportunity here to introduce ourselves! What a great site you have, and more importantly, what a phenomenal approach toward networking!

    We’d like to invite you and any interested readers to visit a special post on our networking blog, where we detail our philosophies about Twitter: http://tr.im/DWTwitterManifesto.

    Now, for that the introduction….

    We’re Mike & Kali Kunkle of DreamWorthyGifts.com.

    DreamWorthy Gifts is a webstore featuring bath and body care products. Shop and buy shower and bath gift sets that include shower gels, bath gels, body lotions, body scrubs, bath salts and other skin care products. Sets often include a basket, caddy, tote or other organizer and sometimes even a sponge, scrubber, loofah, or massager. And yes, at DreamWorthy Gifts you can still also find thousands of gifts for all occasions, home decor furnishings, gift cards and more!

    We are dedicated to providing a safe, productive and enjoyable online shopping experience for everyone with a computer, an Internet connection, and a need to shop for something for someone for some reason (including themselves, and hey, even if the reason is “just because!”). Shopping should be fun and easy. You have fun – we’ll make it easy! (Jammies and bunny slippers are optional.)

    Despite our fun-loving, friendly approach to business and life, the DreamWorthy Gifts team is serious about running a business built on a foundation of ethics and common sense. Our founders have over 30 years of highly successful business experience with over 7 years of e-commerce experience.

    But we are much more than business people behind a computer monitor. We’re also family members, Moms, Dads, brothers, sisters, sons, daughters, co-workers, neighbors, and everyday real people. We pay too much in taxes, are far too busy with work and life, and sometimes don’t know what to get that special someone, when it’s time to show we care.

    That’s why we started DreamWorthy Gifts LLC. We want to help regular people like us find the right gift, at the right time, at the right price… but also without a few things, too… without driving around wasting gas, without the hassle of crowded stores and long lines, and without losing so much of your precious time. That’s our commitment to our customers and shoppers.

    That’s us! To network and support each other, please see our contact information below.

    Thanks again, Ken.

    Mike and Kali Kunkle

    What’s Up Ken!!

    Thanks for the invite my friend. This is a great looking blog, and you share some AMAZING content. I know myself and everyone else that may be involved appreciate that!

    As for me, I’m just an average 26 year old entrepreneur with an above average desire to succeed. I am from central Arkansas, and have been fortunate enough to be able to work from home for the last year or so.

    I love what you are doing here buddy, and appreciate the past conversations, and look forward to the next.

    Warmest Regards,
    Justin Glover

    P.S. I recently started a video blog of my own where I like to talk about my 3 passions in life, Money, Marketing, And Motivation. Stop by sometime and say hello: http://justinglover.com

    Hey Ken,

    I’ve been so lucky to have met you and others in this awesome group of networkers.

    I am a stay at home mom/networker who struggled for a very long time to understand how it is that people were making a living from their living rooms. It only took one person. That one connection turned on the light bulb and my life has never been the same. if you struggle with marketing online, just keep looking for someone who is going to connect with you in such a way that you will immediately know this is what you were born to do.

    If you want to get to know me better, please visit my blog at http://www.theresamoss.com and leave me comments. I look forward to many new awesome relationships!

      You bring a ton of value to the marketplace.

    Hi Ken,

    Words of wisdom by a wise man. Being a sage isn’t easy in todays world. But your philosophy and natural sincere wish to help others is a remarkable and appreciated trait.
    I look forward to following your blog and also on twitter. As a newcomer to the online business world and social media, I am learning so much from many experienced folks like yourself and your tribe. I’m kind of building my own little tribe. You have to start somewhere, just a like a baby has to crawl before he/she walks.
    Exciting times for those with the vision to see past the economic hardships coming our way in these tough times.

    I wish you and your family a life of abundantly good health, good fortune, and success!

    Regards,

    Paul C.

    I have a gravatar but it not show up. I don’t know why it shows up on some and not others? I’ll have to research this.

    Hi Ken,
    You have come into my life through the many blessings of the Tribe. I am impressed with the depth of your blog and I love the passion you have for helping others become better than they already are through knowledge and experience!

    My passion is teaching and learning, which, to me, are synonymous. Having spent 15 years of my professional life in a traditional classroom, I am excited about the opportunities blogging brings to anyone with a passion for anything — together, all of us can empower each other with our respective life experiences, insights, and knowledge. Blogging is such a natural extension of teaching!

    It is clear that you really get this whole social media thing and I know I will learn a lot from you. I am most excited about paying this Tribe concept forward to future bloggers and tribers who want to grow and prosper from hard work, commitment, and simple disciplines repeated daily.

    Thank you for the inspiration and for being a great mentor to the blogging community! I look forward to getting to know you better.

    ~ Mary Lou

      Mary Lou,

      Thank you so much for stopping by and sharing a little bit. I love to see and hear people working in their passion. I agree that blogging is a great extension for people, and by sharing what you’re passionate about makes it easier to market yourself as a leader. For those who really want to use the attraction marketing method what better way than to help someone first. Paying it forward is a great mark of a servant leader.

    Hey Ken!

    Incredible blog you have here. You are always providing so much value to your viewers and you are truly on the cutting edge of social media with your tribe tactics. I appreciate the opportunity to introduce myself here!

    I am network marketer who is completely passionate and devoted to helping others see the light at the end of the rat race! My heart truly goes out to those who settle for an unsatisfying job… get into the drone mentality, and never have the courage to step outside of that limiting box. I am here to show people that it can be done and I want to show them exactly how.

    I myself could never have achieved this if it weren’t for the mentality I have gained through my studies in personal development and for the opportunity I have been given since being introduced to network marketing. As a result, I pump out valuable content on those topics over at my blog http://amanda-marie.com.

    My motto is Dream It, Believe It, Do It… because I firmly believe that by following those three simple steps you can have anything in life you put your mind to.

    Again, thank you for all you do and I look forward to fun times together as tribe-mates! :)

    And for anyone reading this… I can’t wait to connect with you again over at http://amanda-marie.com!

    Love & Positivity,

    Amanda

  • Posted by Peter Hutton on October 09, 2010 at 3:55 am

    Hi Ken, just found your blog and I am inspired by it. Thank you. OK, so thank you for the invitation to introduce myself. Here goes…

    My name is Peter Hutton. I live in Byron Bay close to the beach, I’m married to the talented and beautiful Karen Hutton. Have two amazing daughters, and two always hungry but lovable cocker spaniels.

    I’m a transformational sales coach, facilitator and author. I created a method called SOULD to help sales people. It’s my passion.

    For me there’s nothing better than hearing about my client’s sales successes. Except, for when they have an AHA moment, when that light bulb goes on in their head, it sends shivers down my spine. It’s what I live for.

    I have just written a little book called, THE HAPPY AGENT, which you can download for free at: http://sould.com.au/

    Prior to SOULD, I’ve been in sales. I know I joke about this often, that I started selling when I was about 8 years old. But it’s true. Where I grew up, it was mostly undeveloped bushland. New houses were popping up all the time. This provided some great places to play. One of the things I loved doing was pretending to be a land developer, and I would sell off small metre square portions of land to all the neighbouring kids. They’d pay me a couple of cents which I’d collect in an old rusty baked beans tin can.

    Now that I’m in my mid to late forties, I can look back on a 30+ year successful sales career that I’m proud of and have enjoyed immensely.

    That’s it for now, look forward to reading your blog.

    Cheers, Peter

    • Posted by Ken Pickard on October 10, 2010 at 12:08 am

      Peter,

      Thank you for stopping by and introducing yourself. I look forward to reading your book when it comes out. I always love meeting other people who get the thrill of seeing their clients succeed. I also get the same rush. When you help others succeed you succeed.

    Ken, Thanks for the insightful post and allowing me an others to post a comment on your page. I have to tell you that your Post on 9/11 was very inspiring. When this tragic event happened, I was stationed in Naples, Italy on tour working NATO operations for the U.S. Air Force as an active duty member. A good friend of mine who was stationed there with with me lost his son that day. He was a passenger on one of the planes that struck the Tower. I’ll never forget this day as I watched in horror thousands of miles away from U.S.soil. I served 27 years with the U.S. military and I appreciate sincere marketers, like yourself that is not focused on self, but wealth for all who know that belief comes before results.

    • Posted by Ken Pickard on September 26, 2011 at 11:10 pm

      Jimmie,

      Thank you so much for stopping by and sharing your story. I’m glad that you liked the 9/11 tribute post I did. It was without a doubt a labor of love and well worth the time it took to put it together. But that is not the point. It’s to serve as a reminder that we will never forget those who suffered and paid the price for our freedom. just like we should never forget the men and women who serve , like you, for our country. I would be honored if you could leave this comment on that tribute post.

    Hi Ken,

    Thanks so much for the opportunity to introduce myself. I definitely have a few things going on both personal and with my work, and have been learning more about promotion, blogging, and SEO as I go.

    On the personal note, I have converted my farm website to the blog that is linked above. I am really into horses and showing longe line and hope to change the color of pleasure with my young double registered stallion, Kasino Kasanova.

    On a business note, I have been put in charge of the website and SEO of an eye doctor’s office in Raleigh, NC that offers a ton of designer frames and choices in eyeglasses. This endeavor has a blog that I am still struggling with since I am not in the office much and pertinent content comes harder to me, but I am trying to learn! :)

    I am not sure if you’re still answering comments in this thread, but if you are, can you give me your opinion of the nofollow tag in comment posts? I am confused by the invitation to introduce ourselves here and include links, the commentluv icon, yet it seems that the nofollow tag is added to all the links which previous posters have left, which I understand to be contradictory. But I’m open to learning, if you have time to share.

    Thanks again, what a wonderful website and blog!
    Jaime Foutty

      Jaime,

      Thanks for sharing your story. Comment luv is currently not working properly on my site at the moment. I have not changed to the no follow settings as all posts and pages should be listed as do follow. Thanks for pointing this out.

      As for my opinion I believe a do follow blog is essential until spamming out weighs the value of the legitimate comments, which hopefully wont happen as I’m pretty I’m pretty firm on deleting just about all non value added comments.

      Ken
