ur topic will be finding your site.

And second, it will become a place to catch all those fleeting, but brilliant thoughts you have each day. And yes, you do have some brilliant thoughts, you just haven’t been conscious of how brilliant they are. But until now, you have not been recording them before they “fleet” right out of your brain.

Now I have a sneaky secret to tell you. After you get in the discipline of writing at least 2-3 paragraphs a day, somedays you will find yourself with more to write.

You are poised to start the race. You and all the other runners are crouched over the starting line. The starter raises his pistol into the air and begins his cadence, “Ready, set, ….

A good, strong start is essential in almost every thing we do, including being a rainmaker.

So how do you get off to a fast start rainmaking? How do you begin?

Step One: Get a blog. Today!

A blog can be the shortest distance between Point A, where you are now, and Point B, where you want and need to be. By starting a blog, you can cause all the pieces of your rainmaking puzzle to fall into place. And start building a very successful career right now.

For those of you who are not 100% sure what a blog is, let me give you the short answer. A blog is an easy to start, easy to maintain, web site that easily enables you write daily “posts” or short articles, on any topic you choose.

I use www.blogger.com to host my blog because I am probably the most technically inept person you could ever know. Blogger makes it so easy you can have your site up and running in 10 minutes. Even if all you can do on a computer is send an email.

Step Two: Write at least two or three paragraphs a day on your blog. Every day.

What can 2 – 3 paragraphs a day do for you? Plenty.

Write these paragraphs every day, including Sundays and holidays, your birthday, your grandmother’s birthday, and even the day your favorite cat loses the last of her nine lives. If you will do this every day, these measly 2-3 paragraphs will accumulate surprisingly fast and you will soon have enough raw material to morph into publishable articles, seminar and workshop outlines, booklets and someday …. even a full-length book.

In other words, your humble little blog will produce the information products that will attract potential clients to you.

The beauty of blogging for a rainmaker is twofold. First, search engines love blogs, because they are frequently updated with fresh, new content. As a result, soon people who are interested in your topic will be finding your site.

And second, it will become a place to catch all those fleeting, but brilliant thoughts you have each day.

As your blog produces information pieces in many different formats (articles, booklets, ebooks, etc) use them to promote yourself and your business or practice.

Within a year, that humble blog will be generating all kinds of new clients. Just keep writing.

It’s a small step you can take right now. Today. But the rewards for this small step are enormous.

So get started, you can do it.
