    ANITA: Martin, I wonder if we could kick off just by opening this conversation up to look at, you know, what does that landscape look like, and what that means for business in terms of how we should be relating in business?

    MARTIN: Well, you know, I've been in business for 35 years. I've been a serial entrepreneur and it was a lot simpler before in a lot of ways, but technologically it was much more difficult.

    You know, the bad news is the world has changed. So what worked before might not work this time, and there's a lot of competition. In fact, the world is now your competition, but the good news is the world has changed.

    So technology has been democratized. With a YouTube channel, anyone in the world can start a business and start promoting a product or service.

  • Creating Systems is Critical for Success
    2022/12/01

    Do you want to get more high-paying clients?

    In reality, most entrepreneurs don't have the systems to manage a large influx of new clients at a high level of customized service. So, having systems in place FIRST is critical if you want more clients.

    Curated by Martin R Ricketts

    Digital Samurai's S.M.A.R.T. Architecture solves this problem so entrepreneurs can accelerate impact and generate profits faster. SMART stands for Systems Monetization Adding Revenue thru Technology.

    Many young people who don't want to follow the Monday to Friday 9 to 5 highly structured work week think that systems are the enemy. But, in reality, the only way to create a lifestyle where you can do what you want when you want and where you want is to put automated systems in place for sales and marketing.

    Successful people Master the mundane. A daily routine provides structure and a logical sequence in our lives. It provides the framework in which we live our lives and conduct our daily activities. Soon we become familiar and comfortable with what we have to do daily. Finally, it allows us to experience a flow in our day so we can learn new things and accomplish more complex tasks.

    In addition, you can implement new tech strategies that instantly save time and money. For instance, using Google Calendar, Google Keep for capturing information coming into your digital world, and Google Tasks will give you more structure, which will translate into more time freedom so you can focus your attention on your core competency and boost profit, not waste time solving technical issues.

    Self-improvement is the best way to increase your productivity and profit, which is precisely what Digital Samurai teaches our clients.

  • The One Thing You Need to Be a Successful Entrepreneur
    2023/05/15

    Successful entrepreneurs are those who have a clear vision of their goals and work tirelessly towards achieving them.

    Successful individuals don't just dream about their goals; they take decisive action to make them a reality.

    Curated by Martin R. Ricketts

    Successful people are willing to take risks, learn from their failures, and adapt to changing circumstances. Others may have similar talents and opportunities, but lack the determination, discipline, and persistence required to turn their dreams into reality.

    Having the courage to overcome your fears is one of the essential attributes of a successful entrepreneur. Bootstrapping a startup is the definition of uncertainty and not for the faint of heart.

    Before becoming an entrepreneur, check your motives. If you're not truly passionate about what you want to pursue, it may not be the right path for you.

    So, do you REALLY want to be an entrepreneur?

  • Use These AI Powered TOOLS to Write BETTER COPY Faster

    In this video Martin talks about using Voice Typing Dictanote Case & Grammarly

    Curated by Martin R Ricketts

    In this fast-paced digital world, those who execute with speed and precision will win the day. Voice typing, or dictation, is faster than typing with your fingers. Speech recognition software can translate over 150 words per minute, while the average person types around 40 words per minute.

    The best professional transcriptionists only get up to 80 words per minute, which is also much slower than voice typing. I have heard some people say, well, voice typing isn't very accurate, but that's largely on you. If you enunciate properly and practice, you can get accuracy levels over 95%, and in many cases, 100% accuracy is possible.

    As you can see, I just voice type this sentence with 100% accuracy. There are still some grammatical and structural issues to address, but we have a tool for that and we'll talk about that. So the tool we're using is called Voice in Typing. The reason we use Voice in typing is because it works in virtually any text field.

    And so if you're in social media where you're typing in comments, or you're typing in for a post, or you're doing a WhatsApp web and you're typing in a message anywhere, where there's a chrome-based field text field, you can use voice in typing. Now, I'm talking about the Pay version here. It's a no-brainer.

    This tool is so powerful, I use it all day, every day. It's just buy it, okay? It's very well worth it. And they understand that less is more. That's one of the key things that I like about this software. It doesn't do a gazillion extra things. It does exactly what it needs to do and nothing more.

    For instance, in Settings, you can set the language, which I'm going to set to Canada, because I'm in Canada, and you can set the font and size. That's all they have in there right now. Voice commands, I don't use them too much, but ones such as undo will do the last undo the last thing you did.

    So if I'm typing something, now is the time for all good men, then I stop typing. Then that's what it's going to undo. It's not going to undo all the rest of stuff. So if I type something else like this, then it puts it down there and I stop. Each one of those segments can be erased. Undo, undo, undo.

    The keyboard shortcut to turn on the mic. You can see it's red right now. And now it's not red, is shift control nine. You can change that, but I don't recommend you do. It's a good one that doesn't interfere with most other stuff. And what you really want to do is get used to turning that on and off.
