Can You Setup Lead Tracking In Infusionsoft For Me?

Infusionsoft's built in lead tracking works well ONLY if the website passing the traffic to your optin page allows that data to be passed.

If that is not the case, the only way to do it is with separate web forms...and then in the sequence after each web form, you can apply a tag to specify which form was the source of the lead. Hope that helps :)

Do some serial startup founders, solicit ideas (open to receive them even just by email) to start another venture?

I would suggest you search for and read out blogs. I can't think of any entrepreneurs who aren't also blogging. I have two blogs: brightideas.co and http://groovedigitalmarketing.com

I want to start a website/blog that defines ways to save money in everyday life. How would I attract traffic & monetize this ? Where do I start ?

Step 1. Write 10 epic posts that mention the work of other well known influential people in your niche
Step 2. Reach out to these people and ask them if they'd give you their opinion on your posts. Get them to leave their opinion in the comments. Keep asking until you have at least 10 people who've left comments for you. They will also probably share you content on their social networks if it's good enough.
Step 3. Follow these people on Twitter. Find out who they follow, and follow them too. Start retweeting their tweets every day. Over time, they will start to know who you are.
Step 4. Syndicate your content onto other sites like Quora, Medium, and other high traffic sites that target the same niche as you.
Step 5. Use ManageFlitter to build your Twitter following. Reach out to more influencers on Twitter and ask if you can interview them. Most will agree. Publish these interviews and then promote the heck out of them. The people you interview will most likely also promote your posts.
Step 6. Repeat this process over and over and keep expanding your peer network via Twitter and LinkedIn.

This is how I grew my blog to 10,000+ visitors a month and it's still growing.

Trent gave me some good tips on how to be "super helpful" before my product releases.

Trent is a dynamic entrepreneur and leader with a drive for growth and results. I'm personally glad he had a successful exit from our industry so we don't have to compete with him!

Trent and I shared best practices at numerous meetings> Trent ran a tight ship at Dyrand and was an impressive CEO. Based on his past history, he will be very successful at his new venture.

Trent and I were fellow TEC members for about a year. A a creative, progressive and inspiring entrepreneur, I have no doubt Trent will be successful in whatever new venture he pursues.

I have known Trent from the industry since 2000. He has always been very entrepeneurial and developed Dyrand Systems into a viable, well balanced company whose clients rely on their expertise and solutions for their mission critical online business. I have recommended their services to my own clients throughout these past few years and have also had the pleasure of Dyrand being a client at one time.

I first met Trent shortly after he founded Dyrand Systems. An entrepreneur with a focus on customer value, he has grown Dyrand in a very short order to being the leading provider of IT security solutions in western Canada. A subject matter expert and great speaker, Trent was very well received as a guest lecturer on online security in a class I recently taught at the University of Phoenix.

I have known Trent for sometime now. He is a great executive; professional, outgoing, personable, has a genuine interest in people and working to find solutions that work. He is ambitious, focused, and extremely reliable. It is a pleasure to work with Trent and I highly recommend him or his company to anyone.
