The Rural Energy For America grants issued by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, are designed to provide guaranteed loan financing and grant funding to agricultural producers and rural small businesses for renewable energy systems or to make energy efficiency improvements. Agricultural producers may also apply for new energy efficient equipment and new system loans for agricultural production and processing. Michael Behringer, northern sales manager with Olson Solar Energy, based in LaCrosse, is trying to spread the word about the availability of this funding and how quickly this investment can be paid off. Behringer says that they will assist any farms and agribusinesses interested in this opportunity by paying for a specialized grant writer to solicit the funds. Some of the guidelines for farms and agribusinesses include these definitions. Agricultural producers An entity directly engaged in production of agricultural products where at least 50 percent of their gross income coming from agricultural operations. Small businesses Must be located in eligible rural areas and one of the following: Private for-profit entity (sole Proprietorship, Partnership, or Corporation) A Cooperative [including those qualified under Section 501(c)(12) of IRS Code] An electric utility (including a Tribal or governmental electric utility) that provides service to rural consumers and operates independent of direct government control) A Tribal corporation or other Tribal business entities that are chartered under Section 17 of the Indian Reorganization Act (25 USC 477) or have similar structures and relationships with their Tribal entity without regard to the resources of the Tribal government. Must meet the Small Business Administration size standards in accordance with 13 CFR 121.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I have helped countless entrepreneurs transform their businesses into empires and make millions of dollars faster than they ever thought possible. My recent work with entrepreneurs and marketers has been more impactful than anything I've ever done. I've been guiding, pushing, prodding and nagging them to reinvent themselves to specifically focus on marketing to the wealthy and the top-end-of-town. To get very, very rich, you need to see where the most money is and then take your business there to get it. Transforming your business to market to, appeal to, and attract the affluent, will transform your income, security, and business life. The vast majority of marketers waste valuable resources trying to get money from people who have little of it to part with. They think that customers for whom price is irrelevant are as rare as unicorns. They never set out deliberately to attract and do business with them.  In truth, there is a giant, growing availability of such customers. The explosive growth of the "well heeled" makes this specialised focus irresistible. We are in the midst of a demographic revolution, with the baby boomer population peaking, their inheritances exploding, and the affluent population growing richer per capita, all converging to produce a new "spending class."  Opportunities to trade up, to upgrade your clientele, to rearrange your business, your products, services, and prices, to attract the big spending consumers have never been better. Get to understand them. Appreciate how abundant and plentiful and obtainable they are (possibly contrary to your own limited perception) and learn to target and attract them.

Epsiode 51! Today we spoke to Shannon Konsmo a CPA from Whitecourt, Alberta. Shannon was a wealth of knowledge and we really enjoyed talking to her and learning about the ins and outs of taxes. In this episode we talked about: What is the difference between sole Proprietorship vs incorporated companies? When people should incorporate as a business and why it is and isn't a good idea to do it when starting a business. What are some little tricks business owners can do to save money on their income, and the difference between paying yourself in dividends vs having a salary as well the benefits for each one. We talked about the most common mistakes people make when it comes to tax season and things people most commonly forget to claim.

RICH CELENZA discusses how a lot of people are confident when around their possessions. But if something happens and they lose some of their possessions, they start to lose confidence in who they are. People need to understand that the person they are is not just about the possessions they accumulate. People should be confident in who they are regardless of how much they have or don't have. The bottom line is possessions come and go!

The game of monopoly has been a popular talk of the town ever since its launch. Its unique card buying and selling features makes it a really fun game with equally healthy competition. Monopoly presently distributed by Hasbro. Each side of the square board is isolated into 10 little square shapes addressing explicit properties, railways, utilities, a prison, and different spots and occasions. Toward the beginning of the game, every player is given a fixed measure of play cash; the players at that point move around the board as per the toss of a couple of dice. Any player who lands on an unowned property may get it, in any case, on the off chance that the individual grounds on a property possessed by another player, the lease should be paid to that player. Monopoly has become a piece of worldwide mainstream society, having been authorized locally in more than 103 nations and imprinted over 37 dialects. The history of Monopoly goes all the way back to 1903 when American antimonopolist Lizzie Magie made a game. She trusted that Monopoly would clarify the single-charge hypothesis of Henry George. It was expected as an instructive apparatus to delineate the negative parts of amassing land in private restraining infrastructures. She took out a patent in 1904. Her game, The Landlord's Game, was independently published, starting in 1906. A few variation tabletop games, in light of Magie's idea, were created from 1906 through the 1930s. They included both the way toward purchasing land for its turn of events and the offer of any lacking property. Cardboard houses were added and leases expanded as they were added to a property. Magie licensed the game again in 1923.

Siobhan Carroll was born and raised in Bloomfield, New Jersey just outside of New York City. She is the middle of three daughters, born to Irish Catholic, New Yorkers.  Siobhan attended Catholic schools her entire life including Villanova University in Pennsylvania.  After one “ill-conceived semester at Seton Hall Law School” she moved to Washington, D.C.  During her 20 years in the DC area, her world changed, significantly.  14 years ago she married her husband Marc.  Marc and Siobhan are very proud parents of 3 daughters.   I am intrigued by Siobhan’s ability to have a “pulse” on everything.  This interview was “waaay” too much fun.  She is so amazing, heart-warming, and smart too. I’m honored to share her story with all of you.  There’s no doubt in my mind that this will be one of those “edge of your seat” experiences, for all.  We are delighted to have Siobhan, Marc, and the girls as part of the 12 Oaks family, for the past 11 months and hopefully, many more to come.   In This Episode: [02:01] Welcome Siobhan Carroll our 10th “P” in the pod[cast]. She has spent her entire life, developing skills in pursuit of proprietorship. [02:49] Siobhan has realized the formula to success is reading the customer right and leveraging the talents of subject matter experts.    [04:44] Lucky for all of us 12 Oakers, Siobhan, Marc and the girls moved to 12 Oaks 11 months ago.   [06:29] She was born and raised in Bloomfield, New Jersey and describes this experience as fun.      [07:44] She spent a lot of time on her bike and played outside until the lights came on. [08:37] Siobhan learned the value of education from her parents.  [10:34] She was instilled with the belief if you work hard, learn, and you continue to have curiosity about the world around you, you are setting yourself up for success down the line.   [13:24] She loved her time and had a blast at Villanova.  She is also a huge college basketball fan.   [15:28] Siobhan shares the story about when her and her friends camped out for basketball season tickets.   [18:08] Law school felt like the right path for her based on a number of things.  [19:14] For many different reasons, she decided to leave law school, start working at a temp agency and she never looked back.   [20:12] She had a variety of careers in her pursuit to proprietorship.   [20:19] In terms of the work ethic that was instilled in her by her family, it is hard for her to think of a time when she didn’t have a job.  Early on in her life she became the lawn mower of the family.   [21:12] In high school she transitioned from a well-loved babysitter to working at McDonald’s.  [22:21] During her time at McDonald’s she learned how to make delicious fries of course, but she also learned the basics of the customer service...needs and other skill sets that really helped transfer over to the rest of her career.   [24:26] The other thing she really learned at McDonald’s is how other people think and how their experience(s) wasn’t the same as her’s.      [25:45] Siobhan started waitressing at an Italian restaurant in Bloomfield.  The most fascinating people she has ever met have been chefs.   [27:44] She learned very early on when to let things roll off her back and when to push back and put her foot down.   [28:16] You will always come across people in your life who you don’t agree with, who don’t treat you well, who don’t like you, or who you don’t like and in some way you have to find a way to either get along with them or contain and move along in your life, away from those sort of folks.   [30:23] At Blackboard, Siobhan managed higher education accounts mostly in the states.    [32:44] She chose to move on from Blackboard and try some other things.  Her friendship with Sarah persisted and then she came back to Blackboard a few years later.   [35:36] Siobhan and Marc were not finding the new home they wanted and when they came to visit her sister-in-law and they decided to look around and found 12 Oaks.   [35:57] 12 Oaks has a lot that is very attractive as well as the high tension wires which made her feel right at home.  [36:48] Driving through 12 Oaks reminds her of the Truman Show.  It is a beautiful neighborhood with great amenities.   [37:16] Siobhan shares how she got into the Wine and Beer business.   [38:37] She loves that wine has the ability to bring people together.   [40:12] At the new member orientation back in August there were many people interested in forming a new, additional Wine Club.  [42:15] The Wine Club has been a great way to get to know people and a great way to get out of the house.   [43:24] She doesn’t like to complain, instead she likes to contribute something that is going to be constructive. [44:27] Siobhan feels that if she has a conversation with someone and has not learned something she has really missed out.   She has a curiosity around people, society, who we are and where we are going, plus a continued curiosity about how things work.  [46:25] Siobhan loves social media and feels like it is a great distraction.   [48:49] She does like new experiences, but she needs to feel a certain element of control. [52:04] Middle children are usually referred to as the diplomat, because you are usually between two strong personalities and are trying to negotiate and figure out how you can get what you want out of the situation.   [54:01] Being around people is what she needs, but she also tries to give it back as much as humanly possible.   [54:38] Siobhan shares the story about how her and Marc met.   [57:13] She loves hanging out with her girls a lot.  All three of them are curious and fun kids.   [59:04] One of the main things she has learned from her girls is their love for nature.  [59:53] Siobhan shares the story about their recent animal excursion at the farms.  [60:40] She hates snakes and has been blessed with Nora who is obsessed with all reptiles and amphibians.   [62:57] She shares about her love for cooking.  [65:09] When her first daughter was born she decided to buckle down and learn how to cook and she loved it.  She loves cooking baked meals and having people over.   [67:46] She loves exposing her kids to new things and they love helping her cook.    [67:30] What are you most proud of? [69:24] What would be a surprise that most people wouldn’t know about you?
