Great Leadership Example

Thought I'd share another positive note I received about Tim Darnell of Advantage Conferences.
The pack will only travel as fast as the leader.
What a great example Tim set with his SYG initiative. Great leadership is so hard to find in today's society. Fortunately we don't have to look very far in our organization. This initiave not only helps us monetarily, but sets the standard for how we should carry ourselves as leaders.
Jack needs to take a bow as well. His vision and leadership is awesome, just a fantastic learning experience for me.
Thank you both for adding another set of rocket boosters to our businesses.

With People that I know and trust saying these sorts of positive things about Tim and Advantage Conferences, those "scam" comments on open forums by annonymous writers look silly don't they.

Further Proof -- Advantage Conferences' Tim Darnel

Today, I received the following email from a friend who has met Tim many times and is very thankful for who Tim is and what he has done in this man's life:
Tim,
I just wanted to say thank you for living your life according to the direction of the Holy Spirit, and for giving of yourself to the benefit of us all. SYG (sic Slay Your Giant, Tim's new book) is not only such an transformational tool that has changed my life, but now it will be available to help change countless others. We are blessed to be a part of Advantage Conferences, and thank God for leading us to share in your vision. We are looking forward to building
"Treasures For The Kingdom" with you, and all of Team AC for many years to come.
Your brother in Christ,
Sam

Something wrong said about Tim Darnell needs to be corrected

Apparently Tim Darnell, CEO of Advantage Conferences, has done something right. He has people who don't know anything about him writing horrible things about him as a person and about his company using words like "scam".

Having met Tim, and having known him for more than 8 months, I have seen into the real man. He has a mission to help entrepreneurs in all kinds of industries get invaluable information from people who have become millionaires and multi-millionaires in a amazing array of industries and fields. He also has a mission to raise very large sums of monies for faith-based organizations. And, he also has a foundation which doesn't just talk about doing good by has put faith into action and done a lot of good.

His young company and what it offers unique to the marketplace is just what it seems on the many sites representing it around the internet. 'Nough said.

He is getting the fundraising mission off the ground and appears to be well on the road to raising hundreds of millions of dollars for faith-based organizations.

His foundation has already in the short time that it has been around supported orphanages in Guatemala, and low income families living in bad neighborhoods around America.

On a regular basis he also serves as a chaplain for a prison, and he is active in his local church.

Just like any slanderous/liabelous things you hear or read, you should attempt to understand from what you hear or read if the author/speaker really knows what they are saying or if they have an alternate motive for slamming on a person.

Personally, I am tired of all the negative in this world. If I were tempted to be persuaded by something I read on an open forum, and I had no other place to turn, I'd call that person and talk with them in person. If they were selling me or too slick to be believable, then I might believe the slander, but if while talking to the person I felt the honesty and knew they just weren't the horrible person that I read about then I'd chose to ignore the negative.

Believe what you want, but I chose to believe what I have seen with my eyes and heard with my ears. The proof is in the fruit being born out in his life.
