Franks release a new video and it’s perhaps the most inappropriate marketing you’ll have ever seen… it starts with Frank being busted looking up Corn Hole on the interwebs. From there things just seem to go downhill – click here to watch the video now.
Take a look at this Frank Kern video and find out what is your authority self image. Successful leaders are individuals with high levels of personal power. Understanding the difference between personal power and granted authority is a significant distinction. Many people have the tendency to use the words authority and power interchangeably; however, these terms refer to two very different aspects of leadership.
Authority is the right granted from a person or organization to another to represent or to act in a specified way. For example, a CEO of a company is given the authority by the Board of Directors to run the company. In turn, the CEO places managers in positions of authority over the various divisions, business units, or departments of the organization.
Power is the capacity or ability to direct or influence the behavior of others. Former United States President, Dwight D. Eisenhower, captured the essence of this definition when he said, “Leadership is the art of getting someone else to do something you want done because he wants to do it.” Everyone possesses the potential to be powerful. Power is a personal talent that you can develop and use to achieve worthwhile goals. It does not depend upon title, rank, position, or authority. It’s simply the ability to motivate others to take specific actions.
Authority is granted but always has defined limits. Power is earned and can be limitless. Authority is derived through the position. Power is derived from an individual’s personal influence, which increases effectiveness. Two leaders in exactly the same position of authority can and will have different amounts of power. A person can possess a great deal of power and absolutely no authority. Conversely, someone can have authority and absolutely no power. Leaders who have not earned sufficient power sometimes make the mistake of trying to influence others by overexerting their authority. But excessive use of authority can cause employees to rebel in much the same way that children rebel against restrictive parents.
Effective leaders recognize authority as a valuable and necessary tool when used judiciously, and they invoke their authority extremely sparingly. Instead, they use the power they have earned to create a climate of trust, cooperation, and accomplishment in which people are positively motivated to pursue their own goals and the goals of the organization. In fact, the amount of responsibility you take on is directly linked to the amount of power and influence you possess. One way to further increase your personal power is to seek additional responsibility.
To be a successful leader, you must always be yourself. Be intentional about shaping your life according to your values and priorities. Trust yourself, believe in yourself, and be honest with yourself. Others will then trust, believe, and be honest with you. It is this foundation which enhances personal power. Excellent team leaders establish healthy open relationships with others. They foster mutual commitment in the pursuit of shared goals. Effective leadership is founded on cooperation never coercion. So watch these videos by Frank Kern and learn about your authority self image.
Check out this video and see how Frank Kern gives his bus away in this contest. Ever try and come up with some giveaways of your own? Here are some tips. It’s very interesting how opinions have changed over the last few years in marketing about what your free giveaway should be. I don’t mean the format it should take (i.e report, e-book, newsletter etc), but what the topic should be and the type of people it should attract.
I know I’ve certainly changed my opinion.
For the last few years in my business, I’ve been giving away lots of free stuff to promote my business and you know what, it’s got results. I’ve attracted lots and lots of new contacts to my business and they’ve all been very happy to give me their contact details.
The theory then goes that once they’ve given you their contact details and therefore expressed interest in what you do, they should go onto buy from you, right?
Well no actually. Not necessarily.
The chances are actually much higher that they’ll grab your free giveaway with both hands and you’ll never hear from them again.
Now I’m not saying that offering a free giveaway is the wrong thing to do, but you must be very careful with what information you give away in order to attract the right people to your business.
If I offer 50 free ways to promote your business, who am I attracting with this information?
I’m attracting people who DON’T WANT to spend any money on marketing.
Is that who I want to attract? Well, no not really.
Who I want to attract are small business owners who want some help with their marketing AND who are willing to pay for someone to help them with it.
Could I change my free offering to attract these sorts of people? Absolutely. While I may not as many people signing up, they would be much more qualified and therefore much more likely to turn into clients.
While this doesn’t mean that I’m not going to give these people free information, what they do get will
a) much more tailored and personalised to them and
b) much more likely to result in sales.
So if you currently offer something free to your contacts in order to get them to sign up for something, make sure that what you’re offering appeals the right set of customers that you’re trying to attract. Something that attracts people looking for free help such as my 50 free ways to get more customers, is not going to do much for your business and you may be disappointed by the results.
Think carefully about your offer and make sure you’re attracting the right people to your business. So check out this video and see how Frank Kern does his bus giveaway.

In this video Bill donates Frank Kern‘s $100,000 to charity. When you hear that a person is going to donate to a charity, the first thought that crosses your mind is that he is going to give money to charity. Well, that is true but not entirely. This is because there are a lot of other ways to donate to charity. Monetary donation is the most popular way to donate to a charity. This can be done in the form of cash or a check.
Most nonprofit organizations have a website where donors can make an online donation. Donations through the website can be done through a credit card payment or via PayPal. This donation can be made at anytime of the day or night from any part of the world. You can donate to a charity from your hometown even if you are living on another part of the world. Donating online has the benefit of being very accessible.
The conventional way to donate to a charity is through fundraising activities. These activities are organized so that donors can donate to a charity that they choose. Fundraising activities can be done through a bake sale, a benefit concert, a garage sale, an auction and so many other activities. There are countless ways to create an event where people can donate to a charity. The proceeds of these events will be used to fund the various activities and projects of the charity.
Another way to donate to a charity is through your services. Charities have different kinds of projects where your services may be of use. If you are from the medical profession then you can volunteer your services if there are any medical missions or free clinics being conducted by the charity. There are countless ways to donate to a charity by doing volunteer work. A charity can use all the help they could get to help more people. All you have to do is choose a charity and volunteer your services. You can fit your volunteer work around your free time.
You can also donate to a charity by donating things that you do not need around your home. You all have clutter in your home. They are objects that you bought but never really used. Rather than letting them lie there unused, you can donate to a charity and put them to a good use. There are a lot of things that may be useless to you but those who are less fortunate will find them very useful. So watch this video and see how Bill obtains this $100,000 from Frank Kern and afterwards it is donated to a charity.
