It’s ASSanine What Beer & Truly Mediocre Food Will Get These Guys to Divulge…
Dear Internet Geek,
Yes. I said “Geek.” Why?
Well, you ARE surfing, right? If you weren’t a Geek, wouldn’t you be doing something more productive?
But, since you’re here…
(Know the score already: 1 point me, ZERO you.)
I want to invite YOU, yes, you, to join my good friend, marketing genius, business partner, fellow beer-drinking comrade, ex-USMC, Gunny Sergeant First Class Col. Corporal James Erickson, and ME, Jerry A. Jones, former multi-millionaire-to-bankrupt and back, on a slightly inebriated journey of true smarts in business, specifically marketing, sales, advertising and managing the asylum (your business).
Now, I know you probably were not alive, or were too stoned to remember the 60′s when the greatest ad men of all time created some of the most ingenious and successful print and TV campaigns, ever, but suffice it to say, James and I are carrying on their tradition of drinking at lunch over a high-caloric meal, and loosening our lips, not with trendy martinis, but with good, old-fashioned Northwest-brewed BEER, and sharing what makes our businesses successful and our lives so darn simple.
I asked James, in preparation of writing this blatant sales pitch to you, “Why should someone give a royal rat’s ass about us and what we’ve got to say in between swigs of fine artisan-crafted mico-brews and mouthfuls of mediocre food?
I mean, what makes US so special?
Col. James, as you’ll see what I mean soon, is a smart bastard.
(NOTE: I’d normally save this after telling a story and getting you HOOKED on my pitch that way, but I don’t have much time. It’s 8:43 PM, my two kids I spend an enormous amount of time with and have to put to bed tonight, are screaming for my attention – they ARE more important than you, ya know.)
I specifically asked him, “James, why OUR shit vs. someone else’s shit?” in an email just the other day. Here’s what he said,
“Our shit doesn’t stink.”
Well, I have to disagree. I haven’t been in the latrine with Col. James lately, but I DO know for a fact, my crap is nasty. Trust me.
So, that doesn’t work.
But what does work is this: James and I ARE in the trenches of successful businesses everyday. Making payroll. Making decisions that will impact our businesses for years to come. Making deals with vendors. DO-ING the hard work to make a business hum and throw off shitloads of profits every month.
We also have a serious penchant (a “preference or liking” for those of you unfamiliar with a Thesaurus) for recreation. James just returned from a trip to Hawaii, and I regularly leave home with or without family to re-charge. In fact, a trip to Juneau, AK, is just days away for me…with future trips to southern California in a few weeks, then another to Mexico before end of spring, then back to Juneau for fishing this summer a couple of times. Of course, a myriad of weekends outta town to re-charge and re-group in between.
So, our perspectives stay fresh; our opinions never held too close to our chests, and advice, easily dispensed and enforced over many beers and many what we now call, “BeerCasts.”
Oh, then there’s a very unique perspective each of us brings to the bar…un-matched I believe, anywhere.
Col. James put his life on the line for his country as a US Marine. INSERT JAMES BIO HERE.
Me, I chose Washington, D.C., got mugged for my tip money one night and decided my friends that enlisted in OCS after college were certainly safer & smarter than I, even though they might have been in Baghdad. D.C. was much worse – talk about cut throat! (Hell, if Barack can survive as a US Senator and live to tell about it, he might do OK as President.)
My wife and I have been married 11 years. Her name is Tracy and we have 2 daughters.
I spend the majority of my time helping business owners, specifically Dentists, make more while working less.
I have started, bought and sold more than a dozen companies in as many years. At just 37 years old, I’d say my background rivals that of many experts and entrepreneurs in their mid-fifties or older.
In 2003, my business was the first Dental Advertising, Marketing, and Coaching firm in the industry to actually open not one but two dental practices so I could experience first-hand how dental practices functioned.
Since early 2005, over 400 Dentists and other professionals have graduated from my live Real Estate Boot Camps (over 550 have seen the events) where they learned how to invest and profit from investment real estate; many have also since partnered with me on a variety of projects. Plus, I’ve has shown over 3,500 dentists how to be smarter marketers through direct response marketing, private coaching and consulting.
As an author, I’ve written three books, Practice Building Success Strategies, Vols I-III, co-authored two books with my mentor and marketing great, Dan Kennedy, available on Amazon.com and BandN.com, and I currently have two other books in progress.
In 2007, I started a dental career college focused on providing education and job opportunities for dental assistants and front office managers. In the first twelve months, with one part-time employee and 2 part-time instructors, the business did just over a quarter million in sales (read: tuition and fees).
As a speaker, I’ve shared the stage with Col. Oliver North, Ron LeGrand®, Ted ThomasTM, Dan Kennedy, Bill Glazer, Lee Phillips, and many others. Enough about me. Now, I want to hear you talk about me! (Kidding, OK?)
So you see, we’re not your ordinary SCHMUCKS. We’re two guys, as real as real can be.
We’re not ivory tower wanna-bes either. We don’t hypothesize or theorize. We do. And, we talk about the results and share it with our members.
I know you may find it hard to comprehend that two guys drinking and eating while talking about various business topics is profitable…or even remotely interesting. In fact, some might even suggest it might sound, uh, toxic.
Well, Brittney Spears we’re not. But…to support my argument that you should immediately enlist as a $1 no-risk trial member (Hell, we’re GIVING YOU FOUR marketingbeercasts right outta the gate so you can actually SAMPLE the flavor of what it is we’re so good at), consider…
Mega-Millionaire Author Steven King’s comments about drinking:
“I work until beer o’clock”
Or, perhaps, comments from one of James’ heroes (and now one of mine):
“There may be a few good men who don’t drink, but they’ve got to prove it.” -Col. Lincoln Karmany, USMC
Not sure about you, but I ain’t gonna argue with a United State Marine Corp Col. You?
One time, a former employee and friend compared me to one of my favorite comics, Drew Carey. Remember this line?
Oh, you hate your job? Why didn’t you say so? There’s a support group for that. It’s called EVERYBODY, and they meet at the bar.
And if that’s not enough, consider, the idea behind the US Marines was hatched in…a TAVERN! The Tun Tavern.
More history? How about my personal favorite, Benjamin Franklin…yes, THAT famous dude…Here’s Ben’s take:
Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to prosper.
Now, I’m not a very religious guy, but I’ll buy that.
So, I asked James yet another question…”Why listen to a drunken beercast vs. 2 sober, intelligent, MBA-types?”
You’ll appreciate this:
Fun. Duh. Sober intelligent types don’t give the real secrets… they’re too stiff… business should be fun. Everyone would rather be drinking anyway… might as well work and drink.
The number of businesses conceived on a cocktail napkin after a couple of drinks are endless…including this one!
Then I asked Smarty Pants, Col. James, “Why 2 guys that are experts at marketing, sales, and asylum management vs. someone that manages a group of people but has no responsibility to generate rain (money, new business, etc.)?”
Not surprising, here’s James’ response: “Our lively hoods rest on our skill and knowledge when it comes to marketing… we don’t do this stuff, we live this stuff.”
These irrefutable, bullet-proof reasons further establishes you absolutely must finish this blatant pitch letter to get you, in the words of copywriting great, John Carlton, the giant sonambulant sloth off your a**, to make what will be the most intelligent investment you’ll make in 2009:
A MEMBERSHIP TO THE MARKETINGBEERCAST

I don’t work for free and I don’t encourage you to, either; it’s bad for the economy, too.

Booze, broads, and bullshit. If you got all that, what else do you need?
- Harry Caray, Famous Chicago Cubs announcer
He was a wise man who invented beer.
- Plato
I am a firm believer in the people. If given the truth, they can be depended upon to meet any national crisis. The great point is to bring them the real facts, and beer.”
-Abraham Lincoln
The show “Mad Men” is about the Madison Avenue agencies and the incredible things they came up with to give Madison Avenue its good reputation in the 60s. And, they always had a drink.
