07/01/2014: My Business Proposal To Be Tested (Part 3 - "The Pitch")

     A few days later we had our SKYPE call.  The first thing Greg said was, “there was an idea you wanted to discuss with me”.  I said “yes, I am sending you a document now.”  I sent the document over SKYPE.  I did not want to send him the document ahead of time because I wanted to be able to see his reaction while reading the document and I also wanted to be able to address any questions in real time.
    Greg started to the read the document.  After a minute or so he said “this is great.  Can we really do this?”  I told him with today’s technology we can do anything.  We just need to find the right tools and people to make it happen.
     When we got to the end of the call, he said he wanted me to shorten the proposal and we would get together and review and then present it to Sally in Australia as the UK team was too busy and she would have time for this.  I said ok and got started right away on streamlining the proposal.
(May 6th)
    Greg was out of the country for a few weeks and was beginning work on the 50 Millionaire Challenge so we didn’t meet again until May 6th.  We revisited my proposal again.  Greg told me they were working on a new project called “Titans of Wealth”  It was a series of free seminars to be given my him and Andrew Barsa.  Greg would be doing a section on Forex training and Andrew on wealth creation.  He said it would be a great way to test the streaming concept. 

    We were on a SKYPE call and Greg said he wanted to pull in Peter Burnett who was heading up the Titan’s project.  He brought Peter in introduced us.  He then told him we wanted to add a streaming pilot to the Titans project.  Peter was very open to the possibilities.  We discussed at a high level and Peter and I agreed to set up a meeting to discuss in more detail a few days later.  Next day sent him some screen mock-ups.
