Exclusive Guide for Investors in The New Virtual Organization World

The New Virtual Organization World
It's a New Principled World, It's Virtual, and It's Organized





The New Virtual Organization World is a World of Virtual Organizations we are all headed toward whether we want to or not.  This new frontier is a gold mine of  investment opportunities for Smart, Brilliant, Strategic and Tactical Investors ("SBSTI") all over the world and this exclusive guide is intended to provide you with some strategic insight into how you can take maximum advantage of these opportunities.

You are an SBSTI investor if you care more about Vision,  Mission, Social and Global Impact of  a project:: AND seek a Spectacular Return on your Investment.    To that end, you are willing to make the necessary investment of time and resources needed in order to Learn as Much as You Can so you can accomplish your objectives.  

However, that being said, this guide is equally useful and beneficial to the Typical, Run-of-the-Mill, Ordinary and Lazy Investors ("TROLI") who only care about one thing:  a Minimum Return on their Investment.   

To that end, the first words which normally come out of their mouth are:  "Show me your Business Plan, Executive Summary, Financial Projections, etc."   Upon receipt, if the presentation is dazzling enough and contains all the necessary smoke and mirrors and bullshit projections,  they then proceed to do the legal paperwork needed to bind you to their terms :: and then cross their fingers and hope that all goes as well as planned (something which rarely happens).

Nonetheless, since that's the way things are normally done, regardless as to whether or not it makes any damn sense, they go through the same motion over and over for each new investment:: hoping to one day strike gold on one of these investments - which would more than make up for all the other bad investments.

Alright, now that you know the difference between a SBSTI investor and a TROLI investor, this guide will show you how ANY investor can take advantage of  investment opportunities in The New Virtual Organization World.

Basic Facts You Need to Be Aware Of

FACT #1.  What is The New Virtual Organization World?

It is just another way of describing this new world that we are all heading toward:  It Is a New Principled and Civilized World, It's Virtual, and It's Organized.

So, here is an excellent metaphorical way to answer that question:

Imagine yourself being the parent of a little baby boy just born into the world we now live in.   By the time, he is 2 years old and able to talk, he asks you "Dad, what is the world?"

And you stop right dead in your tracks trying to figure out the best way to answer that question to a 2-year old child with a limited vocabulary and understanding of anything that this world is about.

That's when you realize that, no matter what answer you give, it's going to lead to a million more questions, with each answer becoming more and more confusing to your little baby boy.  So, at the end of the day,  instead of teaching that little kid something about the world that we live in,  what you've really done is,  "confuse the hell out of him, make him feel dumb for not knowing anything at all, and have him scared to death to ask you any more questions about this world."

Well, here is the best answer for any little baby boy:  "Son, it's a place where we all live. It's all around us wherever you are and wherever you go."  And for each question that he asks after that, every answer that you give him will be "Yes!" and he's going to feel very smart and confident in himself about his new knowledge.    And as he gets older and begins to deal with the complexities and nuances of life in this world, he'll one day realize that "the world is really a place that we are all born into:: we have no choice in the matter:: and whatever else that we think that the world is, and whatever each and every single one of us makes of it, is really up to us and no one else."    As the old saying goes, "People make the world go 'round."


Well, to use that same analogy, here is the best answer to the question about The New Virtual Organization World (since you are really a baby boy or girl when it comes to this new world):   

"When you join any Virtual Organization Consortium (or Consortia), you are automatically born into The New Virtual Organization World:: just like a baby boy or girl born into the world we now live in.   It's a place where we all live.   It's all around us wherever we are and wherever we go. And soon it will be like that for everybody else, regardless as to whether or not they want to :: it's not a matter of if but when."    

And as you  experience the complexities and nuances of life in The New Virtual Organization World  and begin to mature,  you'll realize that whatever we think that The New Virtual Organization World is, and whatever each and every single one of us makes of it,  is really up to us and no one else.  
No different than the way each and every single one of us has our very own perspective about the world that we now live in.    
And then you'll come to understand why there was no single answer or explanation to that question and WHY "being born into this new virtual organization world" is really all that matters::  and that sooner or later, given the passage of time, we will all eventually find out on our own (from a perception standpoint) what The New Virtual Organization World is really all about.

And before you know it, you'll be able to go out on lecture circuits talking about and being recognized as one of these Thought Leaders, Gurus, Pioneers and Founders of The New Virtual Organization World.  

FACT #2.   You Need to Be Born Into The New Virtual Organization World in Order to Participate in It.   

Now that you have a rudimentary knowledge of what this world is about, you can clearly understand the need to be born into it in order to participate in it and associate with its inhabitants.   The only way you can be born into it is by joining a Virtual Organization Consortium :: and there is absolutely no way around that

Just as when a baby who is still in their mother's womb can't begin to live and participate in this world,  the same thing applies for all newcomers to The New Virtual Organization World.   You can't remain stuck in the Womb of the Brick and Mortar World and, at the same time, expect to be able to participate in The New Virtual Organization World.  


If you need any further explanation, then it's impossible to communicate any clearer than I already have.  If you are not willing to take that step, then this means that your mind is stuck in the Brick and Mortar World way of looking at investment opportunities (a case of "myopia") :: you're mentally terrified of stepping out of it :: you need someone to baby you and lead you by the hand in order to help you take that first step :: or, simply, you just enjoy playing games.     In which case,  you are simply NOT ready to join The New Virtual Organization World.

FACT #3.  What These Virtual Organization World Consortiums (Consortia) Are Really All About.

Being the Leading Architect and Evangelist of The New Virtual Organization World,  each Consortium comes with a Blueprint of my Vision of the sort of new virtual organization world projects and opportunities that the members can participate in.   THAT IS ALL!

These are NOT specific VOMI projects that VOMI is looking for Lenders or Investors to fund.  VOMI (not the consortium) may decide to participate in some projects either as a joint venture partner:: retained consultant:: or completely opt-out on certain projects.

The individual Consortium members are FREE to Team Up, Brainstorm, and Decide among themselves which Individual Projects they want to Participate in or Work on, Who they want to Collaborate and Partner with and under what terms, and can choose whatever investment or financing vehicle, or combination thereof, they deem appropriate to fund whatever project(s) they are interested in.   

As the founder, titular head, Leading Architect and Evangelist,  my specific involvement in each Consortium is to ONLY serve as Your New Virtual Organization World Philosophical and Spiritual Guide.  (Nothing to do with cults or religion.)   That means, answering any questions that you may have regarding any specific ideas you have in mind, innovation and technology implementation, projects you might want to engage in, regions and markets you might want to conquer,  direction(s) you might want to follow,  or decisions that you might want to make :: and GLOBAL STANDARDS you may want to propose.  

The one single criteria I will use with respect to each inquiry, proposal and direction on your part or STANDARD will be:   How consistent is it with the Blueprint of both the Consortium and My Vision of The New Virtual Organization World?
For Example,  let's say that you propose building a very lucrative and profitable state-of-the-art spaceport for current rocket propulsion technology vehicles which will have an adverse impact on the local environment, the Consortium would not be able to give its stamp of approval nor allow its members to officially participate in such project since that would be inconsistent with the Blueprint of both the Consortium and MVision of The New Virtual Organization World.            
As well, if I observe that you are veering in a particular direction which will lead to an undesirable outcome (meaning, tarnish the essence of The New Virtual Organization World brand) I'll step in to offer the necessary guidance.

And last but not least, the Consortium will give, at no charge,  The New Virtual Organization World Seal of Approval for each project completed under the auspices of the Consortium if it is consistent with the Blueprint of both the Consortium and My Vision of The New Virtual Organization World.  (The value of this endorsement is priceless.)    
      
FACT #4.  Approach The New Virtual Organization World as a Lucrative Global Market for both your Existing  and Future Portfolio of Investments.

Now that you have a clear understanding of  1) The New Virtual Organization World, 2) why you need to be in a Consortium in order to proceed,  and 3) the dynamics of a Consortium, it's critical that You, The Investor, approach The New Virtual Organization World as a lucrative global market for both your existing and future portfolio of investments.

That means the following:  Look at each Consortium and try to understand what that Consortium is really all about.

Then ask yourself this one question:  With respect to the blueprint of this Consortium and the sort of projects to be undertaken worldwide, which companies in my existing portfolio of investments are best poised to offer the sort of products, services, innovation and technology to this Lucrative Global Market that is today completely under everybody's radar?  

(No Competition!   No Bidding Process!  Projects that Are Waiting to Be Built Now by Your Colleagues in the Consortium!) 

And, most importantly,  Which of these Projects Would I want to FUND or Participate in as a Joint Venture Partner?          

Then ask yourself this other question:    With respect to setting Global Standards for certain types of products, services, innovation and technology to be used in these projects,  which companies in my existing portfolio of investments already have such products, services and technologies which now meet or exceed these proposed or adopted Standards?   OR, which one of  these investment portfolio companies, with a minimum or negligible amount of effort,  would be able to meet these new Standards? (Standards that you will have a part in developing as a member of the consortium!)

FACT #5.   Even the LAZY INVESTOR who Finds the Notion of a Consortium or The New Virtual Organization World Somewhat Too Sophisticated and Intimidating Can Participate.  

Let's face it, 99% of investors fall into that category of LAZY INVESTORS I mentioned at the beginning of this article:  "Typical, Run-of-the-Mill, Ordinary and Lazy Investors ("TROLI") who only care about one thing:  a Minimum Return on their Investment."    With that in mind, there is no need to be scared out of your wits and run for cover.   The Consortium can still accommodate you and give you the sort of investment opportunity you are seeking.

Therefore, even if you yourself are very busy and don't have the time to be involved in a Consortium on a personal, Hands-On basis in order to learn what The New Virtual Organization World is all about as well as all the related investment opportunities, you can always appoint a Permanent Representative or Anyone You Deem Fit to represent your Investment Group on the Consortium.

In other words, Don't Be an Idiot, DELEGATE!   This person can be someone who works directly for your investment group or this person could be one of the principals or employees of one of the companies in your portfolio of investments.      

And if you are downright stingy (the proverbial "stepping over a dime to pick up a penny" type of investor) you can either recommend or strongly urge the CEO of one or more of your investment portfolio companies to obtain, on their own, membership in a relevant Consortium.

Thus, you have a responsibility to  get out of the Typical Lender or Lazy Investor Mindset whereby organizations who have projects that need loans or funding come to you:: you get to evaluate these projects:: and should these projects meet your lending or funding requirements,  you get to dictate your terms and proceed to the next opportunity.  

A Consortium allows you to go way beyond that stage (to raise the bar, so to speak).  It puts you in a different league as well as a different world altogether.  Being able to finance projects is just a by-product of your involvement in a Consortium :: in other words, it's just the icing on the cake.     

FACT #6.   If You Are a Smart, Brilliant, Strategic and Tactical Investor, THE SKY IS THE LIMIT!

And if you meet the definition of  Smart, Brilliant, Strategic and Tactical Investors ("SBSTI") I mentioned at the beginning of this article,  you can do both:

Join a Consortium (appoint Anyone in your organization You Deem Fit to represent you) :: AND strongly urge ALL CEOs of your investment portfolio companies to also join a relevant Consortium and appoint whomever they deem fit to represent them.  (I am not sure if you truly understand the brilliance and cascading effect of this strategy for all existing and future portfolio investments.)

Virtual Campus Dormitory Consortium Example.  For example, let's look at Virtual Campus Dormitory Consortium.   To build a Virtual Campus Dormitory, what does it all entail?   How many of them could eventually be built throughout the world? 5,000? 10,000? 50,000? 100,000? What is the average number of students per Virtual Campus Dormitory?  1,000? 2,000?

Now Imagine This for Just One Quick Second:   What if one of your investment portfolio companies is the ONLY one certified by Virtual Campus Dormitory Consortium to do the Architecture for all 100,000 Virtual Campus Dormitories worldwide?  What about the Real Estate Development for all 100,000 Virtual Campus Dormitories worldwide?  What about the Construction for all 100,000 Virtual Campus Dormitories worldwide? What if one of your portfolio companies is the ONLY one certified to provide the Computer Tablet for all (100,000 campuses x 2,000 students per campus) 200,000,000 students worldwide? Or instructional software license?  Or landscaping?  Or certain Internet of Things (IoT) devices and appliances?

Of course, the foregoing scenario is the fairy-tale version since competition is bound to prevent any single consortium member from having such total market dominance in The New Virtual Organization World.   The reality is that any consortium member which is able to corner just 5% (five percent) of the market of The New Virtual Organization World will be extremely successful beyond their wildest dreams.    

The bottom line is this:  The opportunities are just limitless and mind-boggling!

FACT #7.   Invite Everyone Under the Sun to Apply to Join You on the Consortium
   
Why?   The more organizations that are involved in Collaborating and Building The New Virtual Organization World,  the quicker these projects can be completed, and the quicker you can move on to FUNDING or PARTNERING on the next project.   You can even invite your competitors for the simple reason that there is absolutely NO WAY that your investment group AND all your investment portfolio companies can handle all available projects for The New Virtual Organization World on your own.    

THE SIZE AND SCOPE OF THESE PROJECTS IS JUST TOO ENORMOUS.   THE SHEER NUMBER OF THEM WILL KEEP ALL CONSORTIA MEMBERS BUSY OVER THE NEXT 60-100 YEARS.   

In Conclusion

Knowledge is Power.   I hope that the information just provided to you has enlightened you a great deal on what investing in The New Virtual Organization World is all about, and how you can immediately begin to take advantage of all the investment opportunities that The New Virtual Organization World offers through these various Consortia. 

The Ball is now in your court.  Just Grab it and Run With It!  Join One of These Consortia Now!
