Over the span of the business I course of the Ron Paul Curriculum, I have learned material from many different advertising professionals.  I have had unique insights to countless marketing techniques and tools, this is rare for a person at my age and experience level.  I have a lot to learn, I have a lot of training to undergo, but with the help of this course, I have built the basic foundations that are required for a career in advertising.

Local businessmen may think they are doing everything in their power to seek out new customers, but are they?  Most businessmen are blind to some of the key techniques of marketing, this is because most of their competitors aren’t using these techniques either.  With a few simple system improvements and a lot of testing they could reach a pool of new customers in their area.

Most businessmen invest their marketing budget in newspaper and Yellow Page ads.  These methods of advertising were once the prime way to advertise, but they are dying.  Businessmen who invest in ad space in Yellow Pages and newspapers are throwing money down the drain, there is a more effective up-to-date way for local businesses to advertise.  To learn more click here.

Thanks to Dr. Gary North, the instructor of the Business 1 class of the Ron Paul Curriculum, I have learned what I must do to master the skills of becoming an effective marketer using Google AdWords.  I have seen insights into the careers and methods of successful local business marketers.

All of the things I have been taught over this course set me up for a beginning business opportunity.  Most local business owners know nothing of these techniques and therefore they have not implemented them into their advertising.  Dr. North has instructed me and given me sources to help these businesses with their marketing.

At the end of the business II course, Dr. North has promised that he would give students a report that they will take and present to local business owner’s.  This report contains information and statistics on what businessman are already doing, and what is choking them in their advertising.  It demonstrates to them that the old ways are dying away and it’s time to moderate their systems.

My 9-month plan to get a part-time job, assisting local businessman with their advertising consists of a few basic goals that need to be broken down into smaller steps.  Currently, as you can probably tell, I am not ready yet.  I need to expand my knowledge and my skills, and I will do this by finishing both of the business courses offered by the Ron Paul Curriculum.  Along with this, I plan to do research in my spare time.

I can get practice by launching my own smaller business plan and applying the same techniques to my small business.  I have started a WordPress.org blog, as well as a test website, so I have the option to practice with templates and ideas for landing pages and other technical skills.  I can develop my speech skills through note-taking and re-lecturing my notes from the classes of the Ron Paul Curriculum.  I will then follow the instructions given by Dr. North, to take his manual and seek out businessmen who need help.

I realize I have a lot to do to prepare myself, but I am confident that I can do this.  I am confident that by the end of the business II course I will be prepared to start seeking for clients in my area.
