Hello,
I am Arthur J. Mansfield,Sr. a retired Marketing VP from a Fortune 100 company. I currently volunteer with SCORE "Counselors to America's Small Business" . SCORE is a nonprofit association dedicated to educating entrepreneurs and the formation,growth and success of small business nationwide. SCORE is a resource partner with the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA). Volunteers are working or retired business owners, executives and corporate leaders who share their wisdom and lessons learned in business.
I am also working with my son on a new software product venture. I have just secured financing with a VC and have secured my initial corporate sponsors, so I will be very busy delivering on my business plan. This product will be launched by year end, and its intention is to provide easier internet use to physically challenged individuals. No website to show yet, as it is now in the building stage.
In one of the forums I wrote : "Other than Jason who doesn't hesitate to make recommendations to visit a members profile, I have seen extremely few other members make recommendations or acknowledgements in their blogs and forum posts to other members on this network.
Perhaps that is one area to consider following Jason's lead."
So I’m taking my own advice:
Seeing that today is her birthday is one more reason to acknowledge Sumner Davenport. She helped my daughter in law publish a book for her students that she is now using as a fundraiser for the school. Sumner is now working with my wife to help her get her story published and marketed. If you are an author or an aspiring one, she may just be what you need
Cherokee Billie always has forum posts that seem to be the reminder just when I need it. I used her video titled Validation at a meeting with my management team when we were working on my
business plan. We all need to be validated everyday. Some days we can get such tunnel vision that we can forget the people around us. I haven't used her for psychic readings yet, but I have read her blogs which are filled with even more reminders of the impact we all have on this planet.
And GuruStu is so creative. His toons, as he calls them, bring a smile to my face. Some days they are Hmmmm and other days an Ah-Ha. If you need a pick me up or a humorous reminder, may I suggest you visit GuruStu.
So – tag – you’re it – which people can you acknowledge and recommend.
My daughter was just assisted in finally being a published author. Because of her experience I highly recommend this company for publishing, a very strong niche marketing program and a big income producing affiliate program: Self Investment Publishing Co.

With all the new social networks started every day, threatening to delete someone from here only gives them a reason to accept the inviation somewhere else where they feel more welcomed.
Just last week a new member on JN sent invitations to several people I know, inviting them to join his new social network.
This network is not OUR network, it's JASONS NETWORK, and being authentic is also defined by your definition.
I may not be authentic in your view because I don't react the way you want every time you make a demand, but I am authentic and true to my values. Plus with my new investors and corporate sponsors, their threats mean alot more to me, if I don't deliver on my promises.
I've written praise for you in the past when you spent time actually acknowleding the positive events in life and people. That's been difficult to find lately.
As far as as the the new apps that may or may not be added to JN, most people have been disappointed with empty promises in their lives, and here, and have developed a wait-and-see demeanor, and that's authentic for them.
Regarding site traffic increases you mention, who is benefiting from that other than you? How many people have really seen an increase in their business because of JN? Even your forum post asking how JN changed a person life went almost entirely unanswered.
My hero Zig Ziglar said it best - you can get everthing you want in life, if you will just give other people what they want - first.
May you always enjoy your success.
Hey Arthur!! Bless your heart for sharing such honest feedback. We need more true blue folks like yourself around here. For starters no one is questioning your authenticity. When I send a letter to "All My Friends" some folks often interpret it to mean I'm taking a shot at them when in fact it's addressed to the whole. Fact is I've long admired your work and willingness to take a genuine interest in OTHER people's success. Many thanks for your support and keep sharing your magic with the world. Much love, Jason
That is fantastic
I answered your poll on hot women because I know Sumner personally. She has helped my wife and daughter through a painful experience. She listens and supports without judgement. She has been a person we could rely upon to keep her word and go beyond whatever was asked or expected of her. I have seen her in action when she is working with charities and children in need. She is a devoted friend and someone you can trust your deepest and darkest secret. She has created business success not only for herself but has helped many other people to success too.
So besides taking good care of herself physically and looking far younger than she is, it is these more important things about her that make her a hot woman.

Hello,
Thanks for your request to be my friend. I really liked your suggestion to promote each other. I think my favorite friend at the moment on JN is Stardust. She keeps sending me lovely messages out of the blue. They really pick me up some days.
Best of luck for your adventures.

Happy Birthday.
Thank you so much for the work you did with my daughter-in-law, Carolyn. Getting her book published has been a long time dream of hers to help her students. They are not only enjoying their fundraising efforts with it, they are actually making money.
Joanna is also very excited to be working with you in one of your joint projects.
Thank you for your commitment and cheerfulness all the way.
Blessings to you,
Art

I really enjoy your toons. They bring a smile to my face. Some days they are Hmmmm and other days an Ah-Ha.
