In July 2005 I, met with the president of Ghana’s Pan-African Writers Association (PAWA) in Accra, about the use of Print On Demand (POD) publishing to publish international quality physical books at zero cost.
He agreed with the point I made that PAWA members could use POD to get print published to a global paying audience.
So he asked me to order a physical copy of my 113 page Self-Development Bible that I showed him in my online store.
Several months later, I sent a copy through a Nigerian banker friend’s Ghanaian colleague who had hosted me during my 2 week stay in Accra.
It was one of 2 copies hand delivered to our Lagos home by a family friend who’d kindly ordered while in his US base, prior to visiting Nigeria at the time.
Incidentally, that would be our 2nd attempt to order my book. A few weeks earlier he’d placed an order for 5 copies to be delivered to me via Post Office in Lagos.
They never arrived – even though we confirmed dispatch from the US publisher lol!
Things have changed a whole lot since then, and I’ve since gone on to help clients in/out of Nigeria get published in print via my ghost-writing based Print On Demand Publishing (POD) Service – using a debit card issued to me by a Nigerian bank.
And I’ve earned multiple royalties from sales of my books/information products in both physical & digital format in my online store.
Sadly I still see too many experts who can benefit from it, being unaware of &/or refusing to adopt Print On Demand Publishing (POD) to boost their brands’ sales & marketing efforts.
That’s why I talk about it in my on demand 1 hour talk about how a WMS can be used to achieve timeless marketing based name/brand recognition and zero cost sales leads generation.

Intelligent creation of new and useful digital marketing content is the key to achieving – and sustaining – name and brand recognition at low to zero cost.
Look around the web, and you’ll see that those businesses that are able to capture your attention, for decent periods of time – especially the ones whose websites you find yourself going back to, often have a routine of churning out new content designed to appeal to their desired target audience.
Those that get the best results typically employ a combination of methods – including creation of unique series of articles, videos, audios, PDF reports, info-graphics and others.
Every business will however need to experiment quite a bit to find out what works best for its brand. Very rarely will it be possible to arrive at a one size fits all kind of web marketing campaign. Instead, the business owner and/or those responsible for the web marketing implementation may most likely have to do lots of testing to identify what combination of methods gives the best results.
Not only will that process take time, but it will also require considerable investment of effort in thinking up new ideas, implementing and reviewing them.
When you are an expert art your core business, the required investment of time, effort and resources to make the above happen, may however not be something you find yourself able to commit to.
Much as most business owners would love to do it, I’ve seen many of them struggle to combine it with carrying out web marketing content creation and propagation to boost their business marketing reach and impact – the way it needs to be done, for best results to happen.
This is why there is a growing demand for intelligent, value adding, web marketing content creation support services, delivered via a ghostwriting arrangement – like the one I’ve delivered to clients for years.
Since 2004, I have worked with experts in a wide range of industries (consulting, IT, real estate, health and fitness, hotels, bars/restaurants, hospitals, law, agriculture, education etc) to create and propagate web marketing content for their businesses.
Little wonder that many gladly remain in my network and most buy into other solutions I up sell to them over time.
Today, I have several who started out years ago by purchasing my Excel-VB software, but have since moved on to having me deliver other solutions like ghostwriting books, developing web marketing systems etc.
But for me, by far the most exciting part of the work I do as a Location Independent Multipreneur is the aspect that involves using my creative writing skills to support clients in a variety of ways – especially with regard to the use of PC/Internet Technology.
Below is an example of the ways I use my passion – and unique gift – for creative response generating writing – to help clients cost-effectively achieve improved marketing results
If you want take the work out of your business marketing, while boosting your reach and impact, the following custom solutions will interest you
I now offer a standalone digital marketing content creation service.

Learn How YOU Can Enjoy a WIN-WIN Relationship, With Me, That Helps You Succeed – in this short audio message in which I announce revised guidelines for provision of/access to some solutions I offer.
The revised guidelines discussed in this audio notification take effect from Monday, the 9th of October 2017.
The first one mentioned about my PROMO offers is the most important, but I strongly advise that if you plan to work with me, you download and listen to the full audio (click link at bottom of this post) to know what the other 2 are.
This is because they define how I will work from now onwards, to ensure I can serve ALL my clients and followers effectively and efficiently in a WIN-WIN relationship that ensures I stay profitable even as I help them achieve their goals.
Hi there, this is Tayo Solagbade and it’s about 4.54a.m. I’m recording this special update just to announce some slight modifications to the way I’ll be providing my solutions to everybody in my network.
Now please note that what I’m about to say here applies to you whether you’re already a client or whether you’re just a subscriber in my network, or maybe you’re just on my contacts list and I sent it to you.
But in the email I would have spelt out the same terms I’m about to describe in this audio, and it’s just designed to let everybody be on the same page.
Starting from Monday, the 9th of October 2017, I will be launching a new system for sending out offers to people in my network. And this will be a blanket system. In other words I will NOT be making special concessions to ANY particular groups of people anymore.
Instead I’m going to just be giving a blanket system of offers to make what I used to call “Crazy Promos”…there will no longer be called “crazy promos.
Instead I’m going to just have promos, because like I said I’ve tested all kinds of things this year, and what I’ve learned is that at the end of the day, the most important thing is that you should make your offers with integrity, but at the same time make them to have as much of a human face as possible.
Incidentally, it was some of you who told me this – who requested for this and asked, “Oh why can’t you make it a bit longer. These are short” and all of that. And what I found out over the years, from experts that I studied in developing my model, is that it’s always a smart thing to test. If people tell you they want “this”, TEST it! Don’t just be (like some clients used to tell me I was…lol) “rigid”.
So I said, OK – they say I’m rigid, let me see – just how flexible can I be, that they will be able to take it up…
So, I tried being flexible, and I noticed that the more flexible I tried to be, not everybody would respond to the effort being made to be flexible.
Some people still, there was always something!
So I said OK, the African and Nigerian environment is peculiar. People have challenges they are facing that are not normal. Because they are not like Americans, where everybody has their credit cards and you can just be charging their credit cards, every month, like some of my Oyinbo mentors that I’ve studied.
Some people are dealing with price changes of maize every week. So when they are talking about subscribing to your offer – when they say YES last week, by this week, they’ll say “Ol boy that YES don turn to MAYBE” lol!
And so I said to myself, that I have to find out something. that will be convenient for everybody and that would be FAIR! But I realized in the process of trying to do that, testing all kinds of approaches, practically with each person, especially those people who were already my clients and I felt I knew them and that it would be unfair not to give the guy a chance. I found out that there could be a varying degree of commitment even after you’d made these modifications.
So, eventually what I’ve come to is the conclusion that a person who really wants something (and that’s something I’ve actually always known), if he wants something badly enough, he’ll find away to get it.
All you have to do it to be fair in how you make the offer. Once you’ve done that, then your own part is played and it’s left to the person to decide.
And so, long story short, what I’m announcing to all of you is:
Starting Monday (9th October 2017), there will not be any crazy promos. They will just be FLASH PROMOS – which are promos that are (tightly) time limited.
So, the time limit can be in 3 forms.
The first form or first dealing will be 24 hours
That price will be crazy but I will not call it a crazy promo.
It’s just going to be at a flash promo price. You take it up in 24hours you get that price. You go beyond 24 hours, you’re going to have to deal with DOUBLE that price which will be applicable for 24 hours.
Then after that it goes back to (for instance if the thing was supposed to be ) N100k and I gave it to you at N5k, then you would actually have to pay N10k if you missed the 24 hour deadline, and then after the 48 hour deadline, you would have to pay the N100k…or comot eye lol!
Now, it’s important to note, that what I’m talking about here, there are no exceptions to it.
It does not matter if you’re a member of my Farm Business Ideas club or Web Marketing for CEOs club or whether you’re just a subscriber or you’re a member of my Inner Circle. It won’t matter.
(Not) even if you’re a member of Club Zero – because (unlike how I initially started it) I have revised the terms of Club Zero to be SPECIFICALLY for farm business owners.
The reason is this:
I would say that about 80% of my clients are Farm CEOs!
So those are the people that helped my brand to be what it is today, and it is for those people that I offer Club Zero – PRIMARILY.
It took me time, but I eventually decided that THAT was how I wanted it to be.
So anything outside Farm Business Support Solutions would NOT be a Club Zero thing. Therefore you won’t be able to get it at a zero price.
NB: The audio continues to the 2 other updates that you need to be aware of – but I do NOT offer a text transcript version.
Instead, like I noted in the preamble for this post, I strongly advise that if you plan to work with me, you download and listen to the full audio (click here NOW) to know what the other 2 are.

Comment by Tayo K. Solagbade: I prepared this print-ready 2 page PDF version (click here to download it now) of the message previewed below (reportedly given by the CEO of Mercedes), for my kids, who I’ve been coaching along the same lines, based on my observations/experience based intuition. It is my considered opinion, that every parent needs to read it with his/her kids!
And truly WISE parents will enroll with their kids at Khan Academy (mentioned in the message)– it’s the future of LEARNING here today! See https://www.khanacademy.org/
=====================
Must read article on how our lives will change dramatically in 20 years by CEO of Mercedes
In a recent interview the MD of Daimler Benz (Mercedes Benz) said their competitors are no longer other car companies but Tesla (obvious), Google, Apple, Amazon
Software will disrupt most traditional industries in the next 5-10 years. Uber is just a software tool, they don’t own any cars, and are now the biggest taxi company in the world
Airbnb is now the biggest hotel company in the world, although they don’t own any properties.
Artificial Intelligence: Computers become exponentially better in understanding the world. This year, a computer beat the best Go player in the world, 10 years earlier than expected.

Facebook users are posting an emoji of an eight-ball – and it’s all part of a viral campaign to raise awareness about prostate cancer.
The black eight-ball emoji is popping up due to a viral message which is spreading via Facebook Messenger – urging men to post the image on Facebook.
The message says, ‘Hi mate,
http://metro.co.uk/2017/03/08/people-are-posting-an-8-ball-emoji-on-facebook-heres-what-it-means-6496846/
This is the 2nd or 3rd time I’m getting this kind of bothersome feedback.
It would appear some person(s) have been impersonating me in relating with Farm CEOs and other stakeholders.
A member of my Farm Business Ideas club – Tunde Okunuga – called me up at 08.56 this morning to say he’d referred his brother based in Ede to me a while back, and that the latter said he had been corresponding with me – claiming that I had even sold FISH to him!!!
Fish ke! Where would I keep them? Ede is a location I have never gotten a single call from. This made no sense at all!!
My mouth was hanging on the floor by this time, and I recalled a Real Estate CEO who’d told me a “Tayo Solagbade” – with a different photo from mine – had been sending him messages!
Beliow is the SMS I sent him after the call, which I post here as a precursor to a formal disclaimer I will publish later.
=Starts=
Hey Tunde.
I just spoke with MTN call center about your assertion that Alfa, in Ede, spoke with me on phone, noting that I never got such a call and have never heard that name or had an enquiry from Ede in my life.
Neither do I sell fish to anyone! The operative at my instance checked and found no active call direct on my line. A
s things stand it would be useful for me to speak with your brother to get a better idea of what’s going on.
Do respond.
Tayo
NB: I have since not been able to reach Tunde Okunuga on his line for some strange reason. And he has yet, as at this moment (4p.m) to reply my above SMS.
UPDATE (17th April 2017 @ 20:21): Tunde, who is on my newsletter mailing list, replied to the email broadcast version of THIS post, which I sent out, saying he would call his brother today, to find out what was really going on, noting that it did appear that someone was using my name. I’ll be posting any feedback he sends me, here, as soon as I get it,
