I know what you think. What in the world are these three men (yes, you can count on Justin Bieber as a man) have in common? And, most importantly, they have to do with me?
Well, believe it or not, these guys are more alike than you know. They each have one major move that brought not only fame, but their success: They are the true definition of modern Trailblazer. And they've done it their way.
Actually, I like to call them "Rule Breakers". They have never followed a formula, the traditional way. Bieber, Locke, and jobs are not found success taking the normal route, mainly because the regular route was blocked. They said they would not be successful, it would not have done it. They were laughed at, ridiculed, or even banned. But they persevered.
This is because each of them had other similar qualities:. DO NOT QUIT
If you want to make your dreams a reality, regardless of whether they can learn from these guys. They key takeaway is the essence of spirit, his attitude, saying that not going to let anyone stop them while they were where they wanted.
We will start with Justin Bieber. Maybe he likes it or not, and sure, it might not be for your age group, but I'll tell you one thing, you know his name. It is not accidental, but hard work. He has earned every bit of his fame. On the feet, dragged and scratched his way to the top.
When Justin was a start, no publishing house will pick it up. They did not understand, can not put it in one of their pre-defined buckets.
is to stop, give up your dream? No, Justin is 21 century of social media phenomenon. He took his music directly to their audience through social marketing, primarily through YouTube videos and Twitter.
Soon enough, it was a virus. Immediately thereafter, he picked up a large publishing house. But get this: on his terms
.Next we have the author of John Locke, who can not be a name you know but you should, especially if you like books. Locke is the first self-published, independent author to sell one million books on Amazon. Yes, more than a million. And, just like Justin Bieber, Locke did it after all the normal door slammed into his face.
Locke is a marketing phenomenon 21st century. He also uses social marketing and social media rode the wave to beat the big boys, well-known authors and their traditional publishers, in their game.
Locke put the flames and the old-school publishing models of dinosaurs. He has to face, as if to say the kind of guy, and he kept the big publishers.
However, it is not just a marketing success story. He is an excellent writer and, more importantly, he knows who the target audience and how to communicate with them. His success is entirely derived from courage, not taking "no" for an answer, and thinking outside the box.
When it comes out of the box, the original innovator and pioneer who continues to push the envelope and toss what is considered normal, is Apple Computer's CEO, founder and visionary Steve Jobs. He really has paved new paths into the jungle where no one else dreamed of them, let alone seen them.
Business is a game changer in his career, not once but many times. First, it ii his co-founder Steve Wozniak, are primarily responsible for the PC revolution, the PC is user friendly. They are the ideas of fantasy and reality made them. And their computer is a thing of art.
Then, when Apple was on death bed in the late 1990s, Jobs triumphantly returned to Apple to breathe new life into the old company. He started the iMac and followed that with the ultimate game changer: iTunes and iPod. This led to a revolution of music that has seen the death of Record Store and life support for a CD.
but then did not stop there. He came out with an iPhone and iPad end of 2000-ih.Ipad may prove to be his greatest innovation.
, and that's where you come in. These are normal people. They were not known until they are done. And, they all started from scratch.
All three said "no", they were blocked or not picked up what he considered "traditional" way they should do things for the industry and each one had the courage, perseverance and creative foresight to give the old guard's finger and come up with amazing success.
A, you have the opportunity to learn from these people and repeat the feat. Whether you are selling ebook and want to join ePublishing Gold Rush, would you start an Internet business, selling products, or director who wants to do it differently, this is your chance to trailblazer.
This is because there is no more obstacles to the old straže.Internet, Social Media, instant info and have short attention spans leveled the playing field. Now you can really reach your target audience, without the big bucks, big corporations, and PR departments. Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Groupon, social living, and so destroyed the traditional advertising and marketing and with the mean Steve, Bieber, Locke, and you as a weapon to compete against the big boys. Those guys have shown it can be done.
Now's your chance. Be a trailblazer.
