Need more incentive? Here are the three testimonials from the last three students who just completed the course this past December:

Testimonial from Arthur Brown, Writer/Producer/Director/and Star of "The Return of Captain Schticklach"

"I am writing to endorse Monroe Mann's Actor's Film School. In the course of seven weeks, we've written original scripts, broken them down by shot, used a unique system for determining props costume and cast, studied lighting technique, as well as proper camera usage – and most importantly – completed our=2 0films! Monroe is both knowledgeable and inspirational – guiding us, in an extremely organized and foresighted fashion – to a result-driven process incorporating the best practices of film-making."

Testimonial from Ryan White, Writer/Producer/Director/and Co-Star of "Yes I Can"

"I love this course! Monroe really sets everyone up for success. I love all of the simple yet powerful tips I have learned in the short time I have been attending this course about acting, filmmaking, and running a business, and creating a successful career. One of the best things about the program is that it is so flexible to each person's needs. Not only that, but it's loads of fun! I recommend it to anyone who is interested in a career in acting and filmmaking. Seriously, Monroe, thank you so much for presenting your ideas and philosophies to me and the rest of the class. You have great energy, and your passion for life and all its possibilities and success is amazing. During the class portion, I loved what you shared on speaking your accomplishments and not being afraid to sell your services. During the production portion, I loved how hands-on it all was, and how we all were a part of our fellow classmates' fi lms. I really loved being a part of your film program because I know that working with successful people is so important. And I believe in you. Thanks again."

Testimonial from James Oliver, Writer/Producer/Director/and Star of "Mahiana"

"I met Monroe at a seminar where he was teaching a workshop on how to produce your own projects, and was very impressed by his drive and willingness to excel at everything he does. I joined the film class in an attempt to improve on my voice acting for voice over gigs. Little did I know how much more I would be getting by enrolling in Actors Film School. In addition to improving my acting voice, I have also learned how to write my own screenplay, how to direct a film, and how to act in films. As a producer, I have learned the importance of preparation and organization. The coolest thing about the class besides the close friendships you establish is the hands-on interaction. No sitting in a boring class room setting. It's "on the move" fun and a relaxing atmosphere, despite the rigorousness of the program. Also, you're not left out there on your own. Everyone has a stake20in seeing your project through to the end, and Monroe makes sure you not only write your screenplay, but is there with you on set every step of the way helping you to produce it, and is there helping you through the editing process as well. Great job Monroe... rock on!"

Whether it's a non-fiction book, an exciting new novel, or even a children's book, you owe it to yourself to finally do what you have always dreamed about. I can help you write it, find the best publisher, and sell it across the globe. Given that one of my last books, 'Guerrilla Networking' hit the Barnes & Noble bestseller list, it should be clear that I am an authority on writing, publishing, and marketing your awesome new book.

# 9. CREATE & PRODUCE YOUR OWN BIG PROJECT

The biggest success stories in history are about those who took the bull by its horns and made their own big breaks and opportunities. Don't wait for someone to 'discover' you or make you successful---you've got to do it yourself. It's time to produce your own films. Write your own screenplays. Present your own live musical events and seminars. Open your own business. Create your empire! And the list goes on. Do you have the ambition to speed up your success quotient? Then call me today at 914-481-1641 or reply to this email to discuss your unique situation for 20 minutes at no charge and let's get your new year off to a great start!

# 8. GAIN CONTROL OF YOUR FINANCES ONCE AND FOR ALL

Far too many people think that they are going to 'wait until they are rich' before learning how to properly manager their money. That is backwards. You are going to BECOME rich by learning how to manage your money. Not only did I graduate with with my Masters in Entrepreneurship last May, but I'm now 2/3 through my Certified Financial Planner studies at Boston Institute of Finance. My many clients have been reaping the benefits of my knowledge and expertise--they've been buying houses, investing in the stock market, setting up emergency savings account, establishing trust funds, and heck, they even know how to balance their checkbooks---what a concept! Call me today at 914-481-1641 or reply to this email to discuss your unique situation for 20 minutes at no charge and let's get your new year off to a great start! My 5-week one-on-one jumpstart program is only $750, and satisfaction is guaranteed!

# 7. PUT TOGETHER A KICKASS MARKETING PLAN

This past year, I was invited as a guest onto 'The Big Idea with Donny Deutsch'. I did not find them; they found me, and they called me, and they invited me. Now THAT is marketing. Another story? Last year, I put together a strategic marketing plan with the help of over 20 joint venture partners to get my book 'Guerrilla Networking' (co-written with Jay Conrad Levinson) to the # 1 spot on Barnes & Noble's 'business life and careers' best seller list. Pretty cool too. Here's another: just yesterday (January 2nd), I got invited to be a guest on the 4th largest radio station in California, with a broadcast range from Los Angeles down to Baja, Mexico. Cool, huh? Well, as a certified Guerrilla Marketing Coach, I can help you put together a similarly successful marketing strategy for your own business and career endeavors.

My 5-week one-on-one jumpstart program is only $750, and satisfaction is guaranteed!

# 6. GET RID OF YOUR SHORT-TERM MENTALITY

Planning is the key to career success. Without it, your situation resembles that of an empty rudderless ship floating on a lake--you can't tell where the ship has been, or where it is going. Career planning--and I mean long-term ten years in the future career planning--gives direction to your career and business dreams. It is often said that the reason poor people are poor is because they operate using a 1 - 3 month mentality whereas the millionaires of the world operate using a 7 - 10 year mentality. Isn't it time you put together a long-term business strategy for your life, career, and business? Call me today at 914-481-1641 or reply to this email to discuss your unique situation for 20 minutes at no charge and let's get your new year off to a great start! My 5-week one-on-one jumpstart program is only $750, and satisfaction is guaranteed!

# 5. LEARN HOW TO MANAGE TIME LIKE A PRO

Every week, someone asks me for my time management secrets. It seems everyone is in awe of all that I am able to accomplish. For example, right now, I am getting ready to start teaching my second class section of Actors Film School; I just bought my books for my 4th semester of law school starting next week; I am finishing up the budget for our (me, Ronnie Khalil, Bob Madia) feature-length horror script, "The Quiet" which we plan to start shooting this spring; I am enrolled in my last 3 months of studies at Boston Institute of Finance; I am continuing meetings with my partner Phil Malandrino and a German hedge fund about their investing in a number of our projects; I am editing the next episode of my celebrity talk-show, "Before the Big Break"; I am finishing up three new books; I am preparing for my next two speaking engagements at AFTRA; and this list goes on and on! Folks, believe it or not, I'm not superman, and yes, I do sleep (and incidentally, that's the name of my upcoming new time management book--'Yes, I Do Sleep') Anyway, the secret is in how I manage my time, and how I have taught myself to maximize every minute of every hour. Best part? My techniques are very easy to use. Call me today at 914-481-1641 or reply to this email to discuss your unique situation for 20 minutes at no charge and let's get your new year off to a great start! My 5-week one-on-one jumpstart program is only $750, and satisfaction is guaranteed!

# 4. GET MORE ORGANIZED AND FOCUSED THAN EVER BEFORE

Side by side with time management is organization and focus. It doesn't matter how well you manage your time if you are not focused and organized in your approach. Solid organization is KEY to good time management because the more organized you are, the more quickly you can find things and get things done. The more organized you are, the more trust other people have in you and the more likely other people will want to work with you. The more organized you are, the better you feel about yourself in general and the more confident you become! Wouldn't you like to become more organized and focused than ever before? Call me today at 914-481-1641 or reply to this email to discuss your unique situation for 20 minutes at no charge and let's get your new year off to a great start! My 5-week one-on-one jumpstart program is only $750, and satisfaction is guaranteed!

# 3. INVENT SOMETHING AMAZING

Did you know that Thomas Edison held over 1000 patents? Isn't that so cool? Wouldn't it be just as cool if you yourself held some patents? Even just one? Okay, I bet a bunch of you are thinking that it costs upwards of $5000 to secure a patent. If so, you'd be 100% mistaken. You see, in 1996, congress and Clinton signed a bill that created something called the Provisional Patent Application. By filling out the one-page form and then writing up a few pages about your patent, and sending it in to the patent office, you can claim 'patent pending' status for one year. During that time, you can talk freely to everyone and anyone to get a licensing agreement. Best part, it only cost... $125. Yes, only one hundred and twenty-five dollars. As for me, I have a new invention patent pending right now that I am currently proposing to Timex, Hammacher Schlemmer, Brookstone, etc. What about your great ideas? Call me today at 914-481-1641 or reply to this email to discuss your unique situation for 20 minutes at no charge and let's get your new year off to a great start! My 5-week one-on-one jumpstart program is only $750, and satisfaction is guaranteed!

# 2. MAKE MORE MONEY

This is a no brainer, right! 2009 has just GOT to be the year that you make more money, yes? And I can help! It has been proven that most millionaires in America made their fortune through one of three ways: 1) Stock Market, 2) Real Estate, and most frequently, through 3) Their Own Business. These people took their money from other sources and invested in one or all of these three paths to riches, and voila, after years of hard work, they 'suddenly' woke up as millionaires. Sure, it's not easy, but it is certainly doable, and all of my clients (including myself) are on similar paths and it would be a pleasure for me to help you create a personalized long-term financial strategy for you; one that will lead you too towards the millionaire's circle. Do you want to get on that same path to riches and financial freedom? Call me today at 914-481-1641 or reply to this email to discuss your unique situation for 20 minutes at no charge and let's get your new year off to a great start! My 5-week one-on-one jumpstart program is only $750, and satisfaction is guaranteed!

# 1. CALL MONROE MANN TODAY FOR YOUR FREE 20-MINUTE CONSULTATION!

Folks, if these preceding nine new years resolutions haven't convinced you that it's worth your time to become a client of mine, then please just give me the benefit of the doubt and talk to me. I'm a nice guy! I won't bite, I promise! Seriously, just do it already. Pick up the phone or respond to this email and talk to me today. You've got nothing to lose. Doesn't the life you have always dreamed of deserve to become a reality for you in 2009? I don't know about you, but 2009 for me is going to be the best year of my life. Go on, take the plunge with me and give me a call today at 914-481-1641 or reply to this email to discuss your unique situation for 20 minutes at no charge and let's get your new year off to a great start!

I. RESOLVE, TENACITY, AND DETERMINATION

(an excerpt from Chapter 4 of, "The Theatrical Juggernaut -The Psyche of the Star" by Monroe Mann)

"The best time to give it your all is when you've got nothing more to give," I wrote in my journal one day. What does it mean? It means that when the going gets tough, the tough get going. It means that when you want to give up (You forgot to diversify!), that is when you will the most resourceful and clear-headed. It's at this moment of truth when you realize that it's either all or nothing; do or don't do; all the way or no way at all.

Over the last six years, I have thought about quitting numerous times. Like when? Some examples that come to mind are when my band broke up for the first time, when I was sent off to Intelligence School with the Army, when I was told that I look like 'an elf' by an agent told never to pursue modeling, when my key multi-million dollar investor backed out of financing my movie, or most recently, when I was deployed to Iraq for a year and a half and watched my business crumble, my band break up--a second time--and my entire life get turned upside down as I set off into a combat zone. As I would read my journal entries from all of these desperate times, I began to see a pattern: When at my wits end, there were only two decisions I gave myself. I thought about either quitting absolutely and going to law school like my dad wanted, or resolving to double my efforts and really show this town who I was. As you can surmise, I always choose the latter option. The second edition of 'The Theatrical Juggernaut' that you are reading is but one of the results! But as it turns out, I very well may be getting my law degree anyway, simply because I now realize that it would certainly help me in Hollywood. [ed. note: funny that now I indeed am actually in law school and am finding that it was one of the best career moves I could have made!]

Truly, I have wanted to quit at least six or seven times just this past year, i.e. yes, this year. And if you say you haven't wanted to quit, then either you're a liar, or you are not risking enough. Anyway, in this periods of despair--absolute utter despair, I assure you--I face (yes even now) feelings that I will never get anywhere in this stupid business and that the world stinks and that I should just quit. There are only two options when in this absolutely assured mire.

When on the verge of total emotional breakdown from the harsh rejection of this business, you can only do one of two things. You can either quit, like the others before you, and say you tried, or you can resolve to kick into overdrive, double your efforts, and this time, really try.

The best time to give it your all is when you've got nothing more to give. When they say no, you say, yes. When they say stop, you say, go.

Simply said: do not give up when others tell you to.

I have noticed that my greatest accomplishments came soon after I decided I was not going to quit. At these moments, I always resolved that I was going to try again like never before. Suddenly, things began to happen.

Pick up your copy of The Theatrical Juggernaut at Drama Book Shop, Amazon, BN, or in an e-book version available at UnstoppableArtists.com

II. THE ACTORS FILM SCHOOL SCREENING ROOM IS NOW OPEN!

The four films are:

1) Yes I Can - by Ryan White (Starring: James Oliver, Monroe Mann, Arthur S. Brown, and Ryan White)

2) Mahiana - by James Oliver (Starring: James Oliver, Monore Mann, Ryan White, and Arthur S. Brown)

3) The Return of Captain Schtickloch - by Authur S. Brown (Starring: Art Brown, Ryan White, Monroe Mann, and James Oliver)

4) Squeal Like a Pig - by Monroe Mann (Starring: Monroe Mann, Ryan White, Arthur S. Brown, and James Oliver)

You can watch all four of them (each under 6 minutes) at: www.LocoDawn.com/afs_film_festival

III. WHY MY ACTORS FILM SCHOOL CLASS IS SO AWESOMELY DIFFERENT

It's official: Actors Film School is a hit! 8 weeks ago, class began with 4 students. Each wrote, produced, directed, starred in, and edited his own film. The films are now available for viewing on facebook, youtube, and at ActorsFilmSchool.com. How about that? A film school that requires every student to actually finish their film--what a groundbreaking concept! And each student leaves with an acting reel of his/her best scenes from each film. Are you ready to join in the fun? The next session starts on Saturday, January 10th. I have combined everything I usually teach in my inspirational business course into a film school where you write your script, produce it, direct it, STAR in it, AND where you are required to co-star in all the other films as well. Each script MUST be under 3 pages. Each film WILL be completed at the end of the seven-week course. In fact, your film WILL be submitted to film festivals at the end of the course, posted on YouTube, posted up on the Loco Dawn Films website, and shared with the world. Oh, and you'll leave with an acting reel with your best moments from all the films as well. Did I mention you also leave with a 10-year business, marketing, and financial strategy as well? If this sounds great, register for the next class, starting in mid-January, on Saturdays, from 2 - 6PM, and for a limited time, still for only $1500!!! Check out www.ActorsFilmSchool.com for more information!

New inspiring interview; Some practical tips; and Actors Film School

NEW INSPIRING INTERVIEW, SOME PRACTICAL TIPS, AND ACTORS FILM SCHOOL

Hey Everyone! Happy December 1st!

I. Three Quick Marketing Success Tips

II. New "Before the Big Break" interview with Dan Lurie, 3-time Mr. America's Most Muscular Man (and co-star with Ed McMahon on Sealtest Bigtop)

III. Inspiring story

IV. Register now the next Actors Film School course, starting on Saturday, January 10th.

V. Coaching and publicity program also available

***

I. THREE QUICK MARKETING SUCCESS TIPS:

1. Your marketing angle = "Why you are different."(tm) Think long and hard, and determine why you, your services, and your company are 100% unique. Think about it: if you are NOT 100% unique, then you really don't have much of a marketing angle, do you? 90% of your time should be spent figuring this out.

2. Your marketing plan = "How you tell people you are different."(tm) There are only two ways to tell people you are different: either through Advertising, or through Publicity. That's it. How do you come up with your marketing plan? Easy---if your marketing angle is good, and specific enough, your marketing plan will be obvious to you. Only spend 10% of your time figuring out your marketing plan.

3. C.C.C.(tm) = Cost, Credibility, and Control. Meaning what? Meaning those are the differences between advertising and publicity. Advertising costs money, publicity does not; Advertising offers little credibility, and publicity offers a lot; and Advertising gives total control, publicity gives you very little control. Make sense? THIS is why you have to use both advertising AND publicity in your marketing plan. If you only use one, you are inevitably missing one of the three C's. So learn about publicity and advertising BOTH today!

Summary: if you don't have a good marketing angle, the only thing your marketing plan will succeed in doing is 'telling everyone that you're NOT different.' Who wants to work with someone like that?

II. NEW "BEFORE THE BIG BREAK INTERVIEW"

We are soooo proud to share with you our latest Before the Big Break interview, this time with Dan Lurie, 3-time Mr. America's Most Muscular Man (and co-star with Ed McMahon on Sealtest Bigtop) Are you curious how Dan persevered to become Most Muscular Mann three years in a row? How Dan turned a business he started in his mom's basement into a national phenomenon? How Dan ended up becoming Lou Ferigno's personal trainer? Well, wonder no longer! The answers are all here in our exclusive on-camera interview: www.BeforeTheBigBreak.com, and on our celebrity blog right there on the site!

III. INSPIRING STORY

Question: "So, how did you become a movie star?"
Answer: "I decided to go to law school."

For years, I fought against following in my parents' footsteps: I did NOT want to become a lawyer. I wanted to become an actor! If I became a lawyer, then I wouldn't be an actor anymore, right?! I would limit my opportunities because no one would take me seriously as an actor, right? Well, I was wrong. And that's why I ultimately decided to start law school last year. And now, I am halfway done. And as a result, my acting career is actually benefiting in ways I never imagined. First, my businesss partner Phil Malandrino and I are negotiating now with a huge hedge fund in Germany--they want us to head up the North American film financing wing of their operation. Part of that is because they trust me--an attorney to be. And if Phil and I control the pursestrings for film financing, who do you think is going to be getting acting parts in those films? Second, and this story just happened today. It started last year. Here's the progression of events: Fall 2007--I started law school; Summer 2008--I meet a lawyer auditing one of my classes who knows the marketing director for the White Plains Performing Arts Center. This lawyer became my friend, and thought highly enough of me to introduce me to Bruce at the Performing Arts Center. Next, Bruce introduces me to casting director Michael Cassara, because he finds out I'm an actor, that I run a company involved in showbusiness, and because he thought Michael and I might be able to help one another out. Well, today, Michael returned my call, and on Friday, I am meeting with him--to discuss how my role as actor, producer, publicist/manager, and attorney-to-be can potentially help him. Will I bring my headshot? Of course. Will I bring a copy of my acting reel? Of course. Will I potentially get some auditions through Michael Cassara now for my acting career? Absolutely. Did law school get in the way of this happening? No way! In fact, it's only BECAUSE of law school that I have that meeting on Friday. How do you like them apples?

THE LESSON: don't limit yourself. Instead, bring all of your diverse interests together focused on a single goal. I call it 'synergistic diversification'(tm). Do lots of things (write books, start a band, join the army, etc) and make sure they all help you reach your ultimate goal. Don't let people brainwash you into 'focusing'---the only thing you should focus on is the END; the 'means' is a whole other story. Don't assume that you know the straight line road to the top; guess what: YOU DON'T. This is why most people who try to 'make it' never end up 'making it'. So instead, be open to the distinct possibility that the road you take to the top will be more winding than you could ever imagine. "Hey, so how did you become a movie star?" "By going to law school." <---doesn't seem so far fetched anymore does it?

IV. WHY MY ACTORS FILM SCHOOL CLASS IS SO AWESOMELY DIFFERENT

It's official: Actors Film School is a hit! Four weeks ago, class began with 4 students. Each wrote, produced, directed, starred in, and is now editing his own film. In about four weeks, each of those 4 films will be completed, and posted on the ActorsFilmSchool.com site, and on YouTube. And each student will leave with an acting reel of his best scenes from each film. Are you ready to join in the fun? The next session starts on Saturday, January 10th. I have combined everything I usually teach in my inspirational business course into a film school where you write your script, produce it, direct it, STAR in it, AND where you are required to co-star in all the other films as well. Each film MUST be under 3-minutes. Each film WILL be completed at the end of the seven-week course. In fact, your film WILL be submitted to film festivals at the end of the course, posted on YouTube, posted up on the Loco Dawn Films website, and shared with the world. Oh, and you'll leave with an acting reel with your best moments from all the films as well. Did I mention you also leave with a 10-year business, marketing, and financial strategy as well? If this sounds great, register for the next class, starting in mid-January, on Saturdays, from 2 - 6PM, and for only $1500!!! Check out www.ActorsFilmSchool.com for more information!

V. COACHING AND PUBLICITY PROGRAMS

As you may also know, I am a third year JD/MBA student, a member of SAG, AFTRA, and EQUITY, the host and lead producer of the celebrity talk-show Before the Big Break, the author of 5 books, and hey, I've been a guest on 4 television talk shows, including CNBC's The Big Idea and The Dr. Keith Show. My point? I CAN HELP YOU PUT TOGETHER A BANG UP PLAN and/or HELP YOU GET THE PUBLICITY YOU NEED AND DESERVE. Visit www.UnstoppableArtists.com for more info, or call me.

Introducing... Bob Beck, Jonathan Arons, and Amanda Rowan. And... Monroe Mann update!

INTRODUCING... BOB BECK, JONATHAN ARONS, & AMANDA ROWAN. AND... MONROE MANN UPDATE!

Hello Hello!

I wanted to take a moment to introduce my three current publicity clients to you, and tell you how absolutely awesome they are! (And if you're a fan of me too, you can read my awesome update at the bottom!)

1) Introducing... BOB BECK. Bob is the acclaimed author of the new inspirational book, 'Winning in the 5th Quarter', which is about applying the secrets of football to a successful life and career. What does Mr. Beck know about these things? Well, just about everything. Not only is he a former collegiate football player and football coach, but he also has the distinction of taking not one, but THREE, companies public, and he has spoken in hundreds of cities and 10 countries about how he did it. The guy is amazing, and his book completely has my stamp of approval. I read it; I loved it; I am inspired by it; and heck, Coach Ken Hatfield himself says, "This book is a thesis on success, life, love, and joy. This book is a must read for anyone wanting to enjoy life to its fullest." You can buy the book at Amazon.com buy clicking here, and read more about Bob at UnstoppableArtists.com/Bob p.s. his mother is a famous person; see if you can figure out who!

2) Introducing... JONATHAN ARONS. Jonathan is best known as the hilariously talented dancing trombonist from America's Got Talent. If you haven't yet seen his STANDING OVATION performance, you need to check it out at UnstoppableArtists.com/Jon. Jonathan has recently been seen on the Today Show (and he'll be on AGAIN this week), and has appeared previously on Steve Harvey, The Apollo, Leno, Maury Povich, and the list goes on. Jonathan is also the author of the upcoming book, "Uncle Tim's Condo" which is a wildly funny and poignant discussion of how white people are traditionally stereotyped as bad dancers, and what they can do about it! More info at UnstoppableArtists.com/Jon p.s. his family started and owns a well-known children's organization in New Jersey--see if you can figure out which one!

3) Introducing... AMANDA ROWAN. Many of you have already seen Amanda in the National Lampoon film, "Pledge This", in which Amanda co-starred with one of her good friends, Paris Hilton. You may have also seen her acting in a film she wrote and produced called, "She Pedals Fast for a Girl", which debuted this past summer at the Newport Beach Film Festival. Or, you have probably seen some of the photos she has taken as celebrity photographer of such famous stars as Amy Smart, Sean Lennon, Elisha Cuthbert, and of course, Paris. In fact, she is coming from to NY for actor headshot and portrait sessions from November 18th - 23rd, and if you mention my name, she'll give you a hugely reduced $350 rate that includes 4 looks, hair and makeup, and a CD with all the edited photos. If you live in Los Angeles, even better: that's where she lives! You can check out her photography site at AmandaRosePhoto.com, and you can read more about her (and see a hot photo of her with Paris Hilton!) at UnstoppableArtists.com/Amanda P.S. -- her dad is a famous blue grass musician. See if you can figure out who he is!

4) Re-introducing... MONROE MANN. I couldn't resist promoting myself at the same time (I'm just good at it, ya know?) So as for me, I'm just about halfway done with law school, and love my current classes (entertainmment law, property, appellate advocacy, federal tax, and an MBA course, operations). I just signed a new book deal with the amazing Peter Bielagus for a book called, "Getting Loaded Thru Negotiation" which we will be co-writing; I also am nearly done with another book (co-written with Lou Bortone) called, "Battle Cries for the Hollywood Underdog". If you haven't yet, please check out my books, The Theatrical Juggernaut and Guerrilla Networking, that you will LOVE. Beyond that, you guys know about my rockin' talk-show Before the Big Break, I had the privilege of speaking at AFTRA last week, and well things are going pretty well overall. In fact, now you also know that my publicity business is doing pretty well too!

On that note, if you or anyone you know:

a) seeks a wonderfully talented business, financial, and career cheerleader and drill sergeant, or

b) seeks an absolutely top notch manager/publicist (see website for details), or

c) want(s) to enroll in the most amazing film school on the planet...

CALL ME!

What are you waiting for? Give me a call at my office: 914-481-1641; I'd be happy to chat with you or your friend. Or just reply to this email.

WOOHOO! JUST HIT # 1 ON AMAZON'S ENTREPRENEURSHIP BESTSELLER LIST; 167 OVERALL!

Wassup boys and girls!

First, before we get to the 'main event' of this email, I invite you all to tune-in on October 1st for the debut episode of my new celebrity talk-show, "Before the Big Break" with your host, yours truly, Monroe Mann. We are launching a week from tonight with our very first guest Joe Franklin, the inventor of the television talk-show (no joke!)---you'll hear never before heard stories about how Joe got his big break on national television, about Julia Roberts' very first job at the age of 17, how Billy Crystal found his inspiration, and so much more! Joe will be followed by the rock band, Ludo, on October 15th (they just played on The Tonight Show over the summer), and on and on! More details (including where to watch the show) in a few days, so stay tuned! And thanks in advance for your support!

Now, on to the main event. This is REALLY exciting! Here's the quick story:

Last year, I was invited to be a contributing author of a new book called, "Guerrilla Marketing on the Front Lines". The entire book is a kick-ass compilation of 35 stories from '35 world-class marketing coaches'. I am in the company of Mark Victor Hansen (who wrote the foreword), Jay Conrad Levinson an d Mitch Meyerson (who compiled the book), Michael Port, CJ Hayden, and the list goes on.

My story is chapter 27, "Battle Cries for the Marketing Underdog - How to Warproof Your Business -- Literally". In my chapter, I share the story of how I kept my business and dreams alive while deployed to Iraq for 11 months in 2005, and how you can apply my 'lessons learned' in combat to your own 'impossible' dreams and aspirations in business, in the arts, and in life.

Still not convinced? Mark Victor Hansen Author of Chicken Soup For The Soul says in the foreword...

"Guerrilla Marketing On The Front Lines is a collection of stories about how the men and women in the trenches are out there making their way and being successful through hard effort and sheer intention… This book will not only give you some of the essential strategies you need to build your business, it will inspire you to take a quantum leap forward."

But it gets even better...

If you purchase this book on Amazon TODAY you will get a free VIP pass to a very special 90 minute tele-seminar called:

TRUMP, DEUTSCH, MANN.
'BIG IDEA' BLOG # 2, & MONROE MANN SUMMER UPDATE.

Greetings Unstoppable Ones!

Okay, so I managed to finagle a second blog on the Big Idea website. In fact, the web producer Paul Toscano and I are experimenting with little ol' me being the very first guest from the show (no joke) who also gets to blog MORE THAN ONCE! Ladies and gentlemen, how very cool it is to share with you that I am---drum roll please--The Big Idea's 'Weekend Special'! Their first ever! Seriously, this is so cool. I'm on the Big Idea homepage right now. How nice to see a photo of Donald Trump, then Donny Deutsch, and then Monroe Mann!! All right next to one another. :) Yeah baby! How wild: a photo of Monroe Mann right next to the two Big Ds. Check out the photos at: http://www.cnbc.com/id/15838512

You can read my blog directly at: http://www.cnbc.com/id/26097302/site/14081545/ (direct link to my blog).

And if you haven't already seen it, you can watch my Big Idea interview at www.UnstoppableArtists.com

And now, are you in need of some more inspiration? If so, here's my quick summer update. My purpose is to share the vibe, and to inspire you to do more this year than ever before. GET UP, GET OUT, GET MOVING!

Okay, here we go:
* I am a contributing author to the JUST RELEASED book, "Guerrilla Marketing on the Front Lines"--find out how I kept my business and dreams alive while in the combat zone of Iraq! Buy now at Amazon, BN, etc.
* I am almost done with my next book, "Battle Cries for the Hollywood Underdog" with co-author Lou Bortone---available this winter.
* I return in late August--woohoo!--to my 2nd year of law school: Entertainment Law, Property, Advanced Appellate Advocacy, and Federal Income Tax, plus 1 business course for my MBA. As many already know, I just received my Masters of Entrepreneurship this past May---one of only 135 people in the world with such a degree. Cool, eh?
* Unstoppable Artists' celebrity talk-show, "Before the Big Break", hosted by Monroe Mann, launches this fall! The entire first season is shot with guests ranging from the legendary Joe Franklin and Sammy Petrillo to the founder of Pandora.com Tim Westergren and the hit rock band Ludo, who just played on Leno! Stay tuned to this email list for launch date, and become our friend at http://www.myspace.com/beforethebigbreak
* I am pleased to report that Unstoppable Artists has officially changed its slogan to reflect my ever increasing small business clientele. Since Unstoppable Artists thinks of artists as entrepreneurs, and thinks of entrepreneurs as artists, the new slogan is: "...because entrepreneurs create masterpieces." Catchy catchall, eh?

* After two years, my film producing partner Phil Malandrino and I are getting very close to sealing a huge deal with one of Europe's biggest hedge funds. So damn exciting! More to come in September!
* I actually just turned down a $3000 gig to play my band's original music at a wedding this September. Which is crazier? That these folks--complete strangers--wanted me to play my original songs at their wedding... or that I actually turned it down? Perhaps both. But I had to do it. It would have taken too much effort to get everything put together. How did I make the decision? I realized that I have a lot of other hot irons in the fire, and that if things keep up the way they are moving, I'll be able to rock out with my band at down the line. Lose the battle, but win the war! And listen to our music at MySpace.com/RunningForFamous (I'm the singer/songwriter/manager)

* Next, if any of you have a desire to start your own coaching firm, or are running a personal services business (NO, NOT PROSTITUTION! JEESH!), check out my awesome new book, "Start Your Own Coaching Business"--available now! (2008, Entrepreneur Press) * Finally, by popular demand, I have joined facebook. Feel free to become my friend, and same goes for MySpace.com/roemann, and MySpace.com/runningforfamous, and MySpace.com/BeforeTheBigBreak

Thanks for all of your support. Each and every one of you. You all rock from the delta to the DMZ... And I can't wait to meet you all at the top!

On that note...

**PITCH ALERT! PITCH ALERT!** (haha!)

Seven hundred and fifty dollars. That's the cost of my flagship 5-week coaching program. That is not a lot of money. And I will turn your world upside down. I'll leave you with that.

Thanks so much for your support!

TO THE TOP BABY!

TOP 3 SUMMER FINANCIAL TIPS by Monroe Mann

# 1. PAY YOURSELF FIRST. This is the most basic lesson of all, and that's why it's number one. Do NOT pay your credit card bills, your rent, or even your mortgage, without FIRST taking 10% of your income and putting it into a savings account FOR YOURSELF. I promise you: the bills are going to get paid. Somehow, someway, you will always find a way to pay the bills. But only with discipline will you learn to take that first 10% of every paycheck and 'pay yourself'. If you haven't yet, read, "The Richest Man in Babylon" immediately. And open up your account at www.INGDirect.com.

# 2. REDUCE EXPENSES. Truth is, you're probably making more than enough money, but you're 'struggling' because your expenses are too high. It's not that you need a raise; it's that you need to STOP SPENDING ALREADY! Seriously, if you tracked how much you actually spend every week--every month--you'd probably realize how wasteful you actually are. Trust me: you CAN reduce your expenses if you really want to, and that will help you tremendously in terms of 'making a profit' at the end of each month.

# 3. MAKE MORE MONEY! Okay, even though reducing expenses is a key way to 'make more money', another way to make more money is to... MAKE MORE MONEY! For instance, get federal loans and go back to school. This will allow you to get a better paying job. Consider starting your own part-time business on the side. Heck, have some guts and ask for a raise already--you know you deserve it, right? Bottom line, your mission needs to be 'doubling your income over the next year'. It is possible. Oh so possible. The question is: are you willing to do what is necessary to make it happen?

P.S. - the 4th tip is to learn accounting. If you don't understand accounting, you'll never KNOW how much you're saving, spending, or making. There is a free accounting e-course available through the Unstoppable Artists website. Check it out! Click on 'we recommend'. In fact, we recommend you take this free accounting course over the summer! :)

BATTLE CRY 79 (David Sarnoff) by Monroe Mann

Battle Cry: "Don't be misled into believing that somehow the world owes you a living. The boy who believes that his parents, or the government, or anyone else owes him a livelihood and that he can collect it without labor will wake up one day and find himself working for another boy who did not have that belief, and therefore earned the right to have others work for him." --David Sarnoff

Fightin' Words: Once a victim, always a victim--but only if you allow yourself to believe that you are actually a victim. Here's the key: refuse to ever believe yourself a victim to begin with. No one owes you anything, and this quote makes it crystal clear what will happen to you if you continue to believe that. Those who let unfortunate, unpredicted, fluke events cripple them into believing that they somehow deserve pity, special treatment, and unearned reparations bring misery upon themselves. Change your outlook. Change your attitude. Who are you to hold such a sense of entitlement? No one owes you anything--anything--ANYTHING! Make your own damn living. Make your own damn breaks. Make your own damn opportunities. Make your own damn dreams come true. Make your own damn future. If you're waiting for or expecting someone or something else to 'take care of you'--WAKE UP! Get over yourself. You're living in a dream world. No one owes you anything, Okay? So just go out there and make it happen on your own. -- Monroe Mann

Excerpted from Monroe Mann's inspirational book, "Battle Cries for the Underdog" that G. Gordon Liddy says 'is filled with some of the finest insights to be found in history.' And coming Fall 2008, "Battle Cries for the HOLLYWOOD Underdog" co-written with Monroe's Hollywood friend Lou Bortone!

My College Alumni Magazine Update

Monroe Mann ('99) is proud to report that he is one of the producers and host of a new
internet celebrity talk-show called, "Before the Big Break". They are well into production,
and the latest interview was with Gary W. Goldstein, producer of Pretty Woman, Under
Siege, and the Mothman Prophecies with Richard Gere. Look for the site to launch
in early Fall. Monroe also just received his Masters of Entrepreneurship, is now a 3rd year
JD/MBA student at Pace Law School (in a four year program) and will be soon starting his
PhD (so that one day he'll be able to teach as a summer professor at Franklin College!)
Please check out his latest books, "Guerrilla Networking" with Jay Conrad Levinson, and
most recently, "Start Your Own Coaching Business" with Entrepreneur Press. He sends
a shout out to all of his good friends from Franklin, and hopes one day to meet up with them
all again. To Professor Mottale: thank you for keeping in touch with me and supporting
my dream of one day teaching at Franklin. To Professor RoccaSalvo: hope you're having
an awesome time at Franklin this summer! To Roberto Piras: it was great meeting up
with you in New York City. To all Franklin people: telefoni mi la prossima volta siete a
New York, or sign up to my email list at www.UnstoppableArtists.com.

Grazie per il supporto!!

Romp On! Hooah!
Meet You at the Top!
