Tour de Tifton and Spinding

May 8, 2014

All our dreams can come true if we have the courage to pursue them. ~Walt Disney

BMG Cycles Plus,

Most everyone that reads this blog knows that I operate a small bicycle shop in Moultrie Georgia. Many of you know also that I provide SAG support for the Tour de Tifton/Ilse Boyette Memorial Bicycle Ride.  Bret Wagenhorst is the Event Director for the Tour de Tifton. This year we had absolutely fantastic weather as well as a great turnout. Below is a picture of Darian Peavey the Tiftarea Y Director handing a check to Mandy the representative of the Isle Boyette Scholarship Fund. The money made for the ride is divided at 90% for the YMCA underprivileged children programs and 10& goes to the Ilse Boyette Scholarship fund. Ilse was a nurse at Tift Regional Medical Center that lost her battle with Cancer about 2 years back. She was also an avid bicycle rider and one of the organizers of the Tour de Tifton.

This year the YMCA received about 10,000.00 and the Scholarship fund received 1000.00. I believe that is the best year we have had so far. I expect that Bret (wearing the blue shirt and Cap) in the photo below is already making some arrangements toward next years ride.  If I am able I will provide SAG again next year.


Bret mentioned at this meeting that there will be a short ride on June 7 as the Wiregrass Farm Tour is to be held in Tifton that day. I will be providing more details is future blogs.


If you ever get to Moultrie and have time, stop by the bike shop, at least give me a call. We may go out and get a cup of coffee or something like that. 

Have you ever seen or had one of those Chinese Bicycle engines for a bicycle? I put one on for a client a few weeks back and we are learning a LOT about them. I am also finding out that there are others that have shared some of their experiences and I have tried to learn from both their and my experiences with the motor kit. 

If you ever decide to buy one of those 80 cc Chinese bicycle motor kits their are several things you should do. Many of them can be done right away and many have to be done as you go (maintenance).  The instruction book that comes with the motor is poorly written and sometimes hard to understand, so I am actually going to write up a report and make a video on how to put one together.  Not sure how soon it will be done, keep reading my blog and you will know when I get it done.

I will also be doing some videos on basic bicycle maintenance along with written reports to go with the videos. These will be videos of the classes that I will be providing at my shop and at the YMCA in the next few months. 


Bible Verse from Daily Devotional,

10 Then I thought, "To this I will appeal: the years of the right hand of the Most High." 11 I will remember the deeds of the LORD; yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago. 12 I will meditate on all your works and consider all your mighty deeds. 13 Your ways, O God, are holy. What god is so great as our God? 14 You are the God who performs miracles; you display your power among the peoples. 15 With your mighty arm you redeemed your people, the descendants of Jacob and Joseph. "Selah" 16 The waters saw you, O God, the waters saw you and writhed; the very depths were convulsed. 17 The clouds poured down water, the skies resounded with thunder; your arrows flashed back and forth. 18 Your thunder was heard in the whirlwind, your lightning lit up the world; the earth trembled and quaked. 19 Your path led through the sea, your way through the mighty waters, though your footprints were not seen. 20 You led your people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.


Internet Marketing

I really enjoy running the bike shop, repairing the bikes and talking with the riders etc, but we live in a very small town so there is just not enough bike business to make a living, so I work part time at The Home Depot and I do some Internet Marketing. 

I have over the years been in several "programs" that were suppose to make fantastic money. I still haven't found and do NOT expect to find the program that you can join, do nothing and within a month or so be making enough to quit your job. I have had some success with affiliate marketing and am very excited about a new program called SpinDing. 

The first questions I get from most people is "What is SpinDing and How much Money can I make with it"

What is Spin Ding

You can look at it more closely at this link http://www.spinding.com/jgoodwin31768/

How Much Money can you make?

If you follow the directions and the people you bring in follow the directions then you should be making about 14,000.00 a month before too terribly long. You should be making 5-10,000 per month in the first 6-8 months, but even so you are the ONLY one that can decide how much you wish to make and you are the only one that can make it happen.

I will tell you this. I was able to make back my initial investment in less than a month. I fully expect that withing 6 months I will be earning substantially more using spinding than I do working at Home Depot or the bike shop.

Have a great day

Why I am an Internet Marketer

March 29, 2014

Psalms 54 1-7

1 Save me, O God, by your name; vindicate me by your might. 2 Hear my prayer, O God; listen to the words of my mouth. 3 Strangers are attacking me; ruthless men seek my life-- men without regard for God. "Selah" 4 Surely God is my help; the Lord is the one who sustains me. 5 Let evil recoil on those who slander me; in your faithfulness destroy them. 6 I will sacrifice a freewill offering to you; I will praise your name, O LORD, for it is good. 7 For he has delivered me from all my troubles, and my eyes have looked in triumph on my foes.

May I ask a question of anyone reading this before I actually get into the "meat" of the blog?
What is your take on me sharing a bible verse with each post?  I have a book that was written by many preachers from many Churches including an excellent Pastor by the name of Brad Bowen from Heritage Church right here in Moultrie Georgia, it is a Daily devotional and the verse you see at the beginning of each blog is the verse for that day.  Ruth and I have been married for 43 years, it will be 44 in September and through this life the lord has come to our aid many times. I hope no one minds, but I do plan to keep sharing a verse with you and I do hope you read it. Each verse also has in the book a short explanation by a Pastor, and if anyone would like I will be happy to share that as well, just leave a comment here on the blog and I will be harpy to share.

I operate a small bicycle shop here in Moulrie Georgia, I love the bikes and the people that ride them, have a lot of fun but make very little money at the shop. I have some idea on promoting the shop on the Internet and stuff like that. I am slowly getting all that set up. I have a website for the bike shop and I do drive some traffic there, but have not really been actively working on that site for a while. I am however Marketing some other programs (2) on the Internet.

I don't really care for MLM or Network Marketing, not that it is a bad way to go but it is really not cheap and it does take a long time to get a decent amount of followers to actually begin to make a profit, I know you are always told about the people that join an MLM and make money in the 1st 24 hours are have been in for 2 months and are making 50,000.00 a month or some other unbelievable story. I have found that these are usually either outright lies or there were a bunch of circumstances you are not being told on how these people dis these extraordinary feats.

I have promoted as many as 7 different programs at the same time, have over 6000 names on a mailing list and have sent out literally millions of ads over the last several years. I heard a very smart, very wealthy marketer the other day that spoke about "laser targeting" and trimming the fat off your marketing efforts and I realized that I was exactly the person he was speaking about. I decide right then to look at all the programs I was in and take the ones I felt the best about and just promote those, in fact I decided to simply drop out altogether of 5 of the 7 I was trying to promote. So as of today I am only promoting 2 programs, both are Matrix type marketing systems and I really feel these are the best 2 programs for me. Does that mean they are the best programs for you? I would say NO. You have to look at the programs you are in, decide if they have the potential you want, decide if you enjoy the program enough to want to promote it and if you are actually using the program yourself. If you are not using the program, why would the people you sponsor. If the people you sponsor don't use the program how are you going to make any money by promoting and recruiting?

1 thing I have noticed is that many people think they can simply place a few ads, and people will sign up, then even if the do get a few sign ups which is not likely they never contact the people they sponsored and after a while they drop out. If you sponsor someone or recruit someone my advice would be to make sure to contact that person, welcome them to your group, help them and even keep in contact with them, send them an email every day, give them a call once or twice a week for the first few weeks, ask them what you can do to help them. 4 of the 5 programs I dropped in the last 2 weeks I did not even know who my sponsor was. I know who my sponsor is in both of the 2 programs I decided to keep. I am still of course going to keep the bike shop which I own, but I also know the 2 people that are my sponsors in the programs I decided to keep. 1 is Gareth Morgan and the other is Redd Daniels, both of these people have contacted me before and after I joined the program they were promoting.  If you friend me on Facebook here  you will see that I share posts from both of these marketers. Redd really likes to send out some Inspirational posts.  I may start doing that.

One other very good Internet Marketer that I really have liked and worked with some over the years is a man out of Trilby Florida named Mark Hendricks, I have learned a lot from Mark and you will notice that I share a bit of his posts also. 

Just in case anyone wants to know here are the 2 programs I decided to keep promoting the first My Sponsor is Redd Daniels an it only costs 1.75 to get started, and you have the potential to make a good amount of money from it paid directly to your pay pal or other similar account click here for details

My sponsor is Gareth Morgan in the second program and is a really great program that is getting better all the time. They just introduced a Silver Upgrade, but even without that it was a great program. Th really neat thing about this program is that you can use it to promote any other program or you can make it a "business" in itself and use it to promote it. Here is the link for it 

One thing that I will do is contact you as soon as I hear you have joined ad I will do whatever I can to assist you in promoting your links as well as help you with ads and will even mention you on my blogs, welcome you to forums etc. I like to be helpful and involved, so if you want to join a program where I am the sponsor you can expect a call on your phone, some emails and texts and I will do whatever I can to help you become successful. I will not build your program for you, I will not do all the work for you, but I will do everything I can to help.

Hope you have enjoyed this and that you will comment on my blog and rmablings here.

Have a great and blessed day
