Greensboro, NC (PRWEB) September 30, 2010
Gano Excel™ is pleased to announce two stops in North Carolina on it's Evolution of Coffee Tour, which is currently underway. Wednesday October 13th, Raleigh, NC and Thursday October 14th, Greensboro, NC.
When it comes to the uncertainty of today’s job market many people are making the decision to go from unemployed to self-employed. Sondra Wright, small business entrepreneur and home based business owner, found her passion for coaching others to start their own businesses. Sondra states, in today’s economy people are looking for answers and a home-based business could provide the answers they need.
So little information is available on how to wisely select a work from home business and build it successfully. Since home based businesses represent the largest growing segment of the US economy she wanted to be able to provide guidance to those seeking entrepreneurship.
“I recently attended the Get Motivated Seminar in Raleigh, where several world renowned public speakers shared creative strategies for success and wealth building. Zig Ziglar said “The most common commodity in the world is coffee. Get innovative, do something different with it and run”. I also heard James Smith say, "A job is a source of income you don’t control. You need multiple sources of income you do control.” Well I happen know an innovative coffee company with a unique ingredient that enriches their coffee. They have a simple system for individuals to grow a full or part-time, work from home business, and a source income you do control. The company is currently on tour, looking for talent in select cities throughout the US. I asked if they would add North Carolina as one of their stops and they graciously agreed.
Guests can expect full opportunity and product presentations by Gano Excel™ Director of Field Operations, Michael Marumoto and Direct Sales Industry Legend Ben Kane
The events are FREE and will be held on Wednesday October 13, 7:00 pm at the Winngate by Wyndham, 2610 Westinghouse Blvd. Raleigh, NC, (919) 821-0888 and Thursday, October 14, 2010, 7:00 pm at the Clarion Hotel, 415 Swing Rd (off I-40 @Guilford College Rd.) 336-299-7650.
According to the Coffee Statistics Report 2010 Edition (www.coffee-statistics.com) 400 millions cups of coffee are consumed in the US every day. This is a tremendous market for café bars and restaurants. It also creates a very lucrative, untapped income opportunity for the savvy home business entrepreneur.
With North Carolina residents struggling to achieve financial security this business presentation and coffee tasting may be the fuel on the fire for budding entrepreneurs to start their own business. For more information on this event visit www.carolinacoffeelovers.net , or call Sondra Wright (336) 669-2702.

Eco-friendly Town Comes to Leeds
The Isle of Man-based Oulton Hall Estates and the Yorkshire firm GMI Property Company Ltd submitted an ‘expression of interest’ document to the Department for Communities and the local government in the autumn of last year.
The expression of interest document stated that there were planning to dig up the A642 Leeds-Wakefield Road and replace it with a dual carriageway.
The proposed sites would see registered green belt land in Leeds being used for an eco-friendly housing estate, which will include the areas Rothwell, Oulton and Woodlesford.
The secret document uncovered a scheme to make a south Leeds suburb into a new eco-town called ‘The Greens.’
Oulton Hall Estates and GMI hope that they will receive the go ahead for the radical scheme.
If permission is granted for the large-scale development the site would include 9,000 carbon neutral homes spreading over 800 acres.
All homes would be installed with electricity saving devices such as sonar panels and wind turbines will be included on all the sites.
The plans also revealed the proposal to develop the surrounding grounds of Oulton Hall and double the size of Oulton.
The expansion of the village of Carlton to at least three times its original size was also included in the plans.
They will also introduce six new schools in the new development and will include both primary and secondary schools.
An Emblem of the new town’s pioneering spirit will be showcased by a giant bubble sculpture at the centre of the town.
The two companies Oulton Hall Estates and GMI are already in control of the 800 acres of the land needed for the scheme.
The proposed sites will initially build 5,000 houses, with plans to increase the number to a total of 9,000 in the coming years.
