This is AWESOME! Providing value beyond the coin itself is going to be what sets DNotes apart from the competition.
Thanks Wiser! Ultimately, this strategy will allow us to take DNotes much further and will allow DNotes to stand the test of time.
It is hitting the mainstream media now.

(The picture says: Inspire, Learn, Goals, Motivate, Vision, Lead by Example, Mentor, Teamwork......then right in the center: SUCCESS!!! Sums the book up like no other single example I have seen. Great choice of graphics, Joe!!

This is pretty interesting as well: https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/department-of-homeland-security-wants-blockchain-applications/.
Department of Homeland Security Wants Blockchain Applications
Through a predominant public-private partnership program called Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR), the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is looking to understand bitcoin’s underlying technology, the blockchain.
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security through the SBIR’s Science and Technology Directorate (S&T) is now accepting proposals from small businesses comprising of fewer than 500 employees in at least 10 topic areas. Interestingly, the areas also cover the topics of “Applicability of Blockchain Technology to Privacy Respecting Identity Management” & “Blockchain Applications for Homeland Security Analytics”.
Presumably, the former is looking for research into providing better awareness and the know-how for identity management beyond current systems in the active directory. The other topic seeks blockchain technology to help enhance analytics done by DHS.
The S&T Directorate, in particular, commenced its SBIR program in 2014 with the objective to foster the “participation of innovative and creative small businesses” in the country among federal research programs and new innovations. Ultimately, the goal is seen as one to bring new solutions for the betterment of homeland security.

All, so the idea in progress for the book and accompanying site is this:
The book is designed to help small business be successful. Drawing from Alan's schooling and knowledge in business and as a business consultant for hundreds of businesses that needed help.
The book I am writing is dedicated to assist small business owners, including many women small business owners. The vast majority of small business owners and their employees are struggling today in the face of mounting regulations and high cost of doing business. Many small business owners struggle to meet payroll on a regular bases and skip supporting their own retirement savings. Many employees have not see a pay raise in years. We are committed to help in ways we can to foster better employer/employee relationship and improved ways of doing business. We believe that CRISP For Retirement, and CRISP For Employees Incentive Benefits when offered as a package with interactive support by virtual of a dedicated web site will make a difference. We also plan to engage other groups as part of the resources that are beneficial for small business owners. Any suggestions you may have will be very much appreciated.
The book and the site will be utilized in the upcoming business to help fund and grow this business. We will be exploring both publisher options and self publishing options if we cannot make a favorable deal with a publisher. We have also created a model for a marketing plan in the event we do have to self publish to ensure it is a viable option.
The site will be a membership site designed to compliment the book, likely with different levels of membership. We intend to keep the cost of membership low in the spirit of helping small business and not becoming a burden, and we plan to over-deliver in terms of value to the customer.
The first level of membership will likely include additional content and explore more in depth the concepts within the book via video and articles published on a regular basis. We intend to have articles from Alan directly and approved articles from industry experts. This would also include specific forms, spreadsheets, and materials that would help small businesses, Alan can go into more detail on that than I can.
The second level may include access to a forum, where we can help answer peoples business questions, give them advice and guidance, and also use it as an outlet for vetted consultants to help in various aspects of their business. One of the requirements for being a vetted consulted in the forum would be that they spend some time helping answer questions on the forums.
So this is the rough idea, I look forward to hearing your comments and suggestions.

I like it. It ties crypto/business/economy/money/success and surviving in the future monetary world together in one place. I think this is something currently lacking in our industry. Everyone involved has an idea of how to make their version of crypto or, blockchain (read sequential database here) or whatever part of this new technology they have bought in to work for them but, very few have the vision to pull it all together or, even show how one area effects the others in real world.
Again, lets look at "blockchain". How many blockchain projects have been announced in the last year? Hundreds? Certainly there is something under the radar here. Not sinister but fearful. Fear of being left behind. As much as banks and other financial institutions try to "pooh pooh" crypto, behind closed doors they are scared to death but, they need to show the public they are engaged. Large corporations and governments are in the same boat, get involved or, get left behind. All these "blockchain" projects are simply vehicles to get funding to explore the technology using the current "buzz" words that are quickly becoming a part of the Lexicon.
A website that could take all this into consideration and perhaps show the way to integration without pain, would be welcome. I feel there are very few places on the Web where professionals can go to discuss the technology and how to best leverage it for their needs. Real world data, working examples, technical input and support, that would be something to get them all in one place.
Thanks, RJF. I wish many more people understand why it is necessary for us to do so much extra work in order to strive towards mass acceptance of DNotes one day. We are trail blazers with a very clear vision of where we are going and what must be done systematically to get there. Everything is carefully, managed, timed and strategically integrated. Our sphere of influence will continue to expand, involving more and more people as more projects are launched.
We are always advancing towards making DNotes the trusted global digital currency for everyone worldwide to participate. Unfortunately, our industry seems to have an over abundance of followers, almost like mindless zombies. Globally, there must be thousands of companies claiming to be involved in blockchain projects, including many large banks. Blockchain as a decentralized consensus ledger for the transfer of asset of value without the oversight of a central authority or intermediary is revolutionary. We believe that its greatest value is when it is coupled with a stable currency. Many are using blockchain as a glorified database.
The necessary stability is not achievable until there is significant fundamental value to support the increasing value of the currency. We are even more convinced that our new company is spot on to help get DNotes to the next level.
Stay tuned for our next press release, scheduled for tomorrow. Here is a sneak peek:
Bitcoin Alternative DNotes Announces Company Launch and Book for Small Business Owners in 2016
CHICAGO, Illinois – December 15, 2015 – DNotes today announced the early 2016 release of a book for small business owners. The announcement comes on the heels of October’s revelations about the company’s plans for the launch of a new for-profit enterprise next year. DNotes officials have confirmed that the new company launch and the planned book release are part of an ongoing strategy to differentiate the DNotes ecosystem and better serve partners and customers throughout the cryptocurrency industry and beyond.
According to respected entrepreneur, technology visionary, and DNotes co-founder Alan Yong, the new company will fully integrate the DNotes currency, blockchain, and a seamless new payment system, to provide the currency with greater stability and long-term appreciation. The current plan calls for DNotes to maintain as much as 25% of the new enterprise, which will give the company the platform it needs to support the digital currency’s growth.

I like the idea for the membership site. Are you going to sell the book on the site as well in digital and audio format?
I would recommend using affiliate marketing to sell the book and memberships, Shareasale, Commission Junction, Clickbank. I've used all of those to earn money and to sell products, and wouldn't mind earning a few bucks promoting the book and new site.
Thanks Kanus, depending on how the publishing works I can see selling the book and a audiobook version. Affiliate marketing sounds like a great way to promote the membership site and the book. I will have to take a closer look and may want to pick your brain.

Great ideas, it's certainly going to be interesting seeing this all come together.
It's funny you should mention the consultation, literally minutes before I saw this post I added cryptocurrency support and consultation to www.DNotesEDU.com . Coming on here with so many wily industry professionals might seem like a daunting task for new users, because they may be afraid of asking embarrassing beginner questions. With DNotesEDU Support, all questions are kept confidential.
Thanks CryptoBroker,
I can see your point and also see the benefit of learning new things from reading through others questions. Maybe the best answer is to have both options available. Great start on your site by the way, I need to make sure I have to links setup to it.

All, so the idea in progress for the book and accompanying site is this:
The book is designed to help small business be successful. Drawing from Alan's schooling and knowledge in business and as a business consultant for hundreds of businesses that needed help.
The book I am writing is dedicated to assist small business owners, including many women small business owners. The vast majority of small business owners and their employees are struggling today in the face of mounting regulations and high cost of doing business. Many small business owners struggle to meet payroll on a regular bases and skip supporting their own retirement savings. Many employees have not see a pay raise in years. We are committed to help in ways we can to foster better employer/employee relationship and improved ways of doing business. We believe that CRISP For Retirement, and CRISP For Employees Incentive Benefits when offered as a package with interactive support by virtual of a dedicated web site will make a difference. We also plan to engage other groups as part of the resources that are beneficial for small business owners. Any suggestions you may have will be very much appreciated.
The book and the site will be utilized in the upcoming business to help fund and grow this business. We will be exploring both publisher options and self publishing options if we cannot make a favorable deal with a publisher. We have also created a model for a marketing plan in the event we do have to self publish to ensure it is a viable option.
The site will be a membership site designed to compliment the book, likely with different levels of membership. We intend to keep the cost of membership low in the spirit of helping small business and not becoming a burden, and we plan to over-deliver in terms of value to the customer.
The first level of membership will likely include additional content and explore more in depth the concepts within the book via video and articles published on a regular basis. We intend to have articles from Alan directly and approved articles from industry experts. This would also include specific forms, spreadsheets, and materials that would help small businesses, Alan can go into more detail on that than I can.
The second level may include access to a forum, where we can help answer peoples business questions, give them advice and guidance, and also use it as an outlet for vetted consultants to help in various aspects of their business. One of the requirements for being a vetted consulted in the forum would be that they spend some time helping answer questions on the forums.

I like it. It ties crypto/business/economy/money/success and surviving in the future monetary world together in one place. I think this is something currently lacking in our industry. Everyone involved has an idea of how to make their version of crypto or, blockchain (read sequential database here) or whatever part of this new technology they have bought in to work for them but, very few have the vision to pull it all together or, even show how one area effects the others in real world.
Again, lets look at "blockchain". How many blockchain projects have been announced in the last year? Hundreds? Certainly there is something under the radar here. Not sinister but fearful. Fear of being left behind. As much as banks and other financial institutions try to "pooh pooh" crypto, behind closed doors they are scared to death but, they need to show the public they are engaged. Large corporations and governments are in the same boat, get involved or, get left behind. All these "blockchain" projects are simply vehicles to get funding to explore the technology using the current "buzz" words that are quickly becoming a part of the Lexicon.
A website that could take all this into consideration and perhaps show the way to integration without pain, would be welcome. I feel there are very few places on the Web where professionals can go to discuss the technology and how to best leverage it for their needs. Real world data, working examples, technical input and support, that would be something to get them all in one place.

Hello Cryptomoms.
This is a very nice forum tyou have going on here. I checked out some of the Bitcoin forums and they are disgusting. I've been buying a bit of Bitcoin here and there for over a year but never new what else to buy.
"Say hello everyone" is so other people who don't know what to post can at least say hello.

This article has some good points regarding "climbing onboard the blockchain bandwagon" that is going on now. It's a bit long, out of my area of expertise, and I only skimmed the farther I got into the article.
Avoiding the pointless blockchain project
How to determine if you’ve found a real blockchain use case
Blockchains are overhyped. There, I said it. From Sibos to Money20/20 to cover stories of The Economist and Euromoney, everyone seems to be climbing aboard the blockchain wagon. And no doubt like others in the space, we’re seeing a rapidly increasing number of companies building proofs of concept on our platform and/or asking for our help.
As a young startup, you’d think we’d be over the moon. Surely now is the time to raise a ton of money and build that high performance next generation blockchain platform we’ve already designed. What on earth are we waiting for?
I’ll tell you what. We’re waiting to gain a clearer understanding of where blockchains genuinely add value in enterprise IT. You see, a large proportion of these incoming projects have nothing to do with blockchains at all. Here’s how it plays out. Big company hears that blockchains are the next big thing. Big company finds some people internally who are interested in the subject. Big company gives them a budget and tells them to go do something blockchainy. Soon enough they come knocking on our door, waving dollar bills, asking us to help them think up a use case. Say what now?
Full article: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/avoiding-pointless-blockchain-project-gideon-greenspan
I will read the full article another day when I have a little more time to spare.
In the mean time, here is my take. Blockchain technology, indeed offers massive potential and will be hugely disruptive. Yes, it is currently over-hyped and attracting too many "me toos", may be more than usual. A lot of investment will not work out with many disappointed investors, but nothing unusual. Most will be too early and many will fail. DNotes is taking Blockchain very seriously. We will be a major player one day but we will not the first bull to charge into the "China Shop." We are keeping ourselves well informed and mapping our the most viable Blockchain related projects. Frankly, we believe that we have a huge advantage of packaging the technology with our own digital currency.
It's a great article that points out when not to use the blockchain, and for the most part I agree, because we do have better solutions for most database needs. However we haven't seen every iteration of blockchain or thought of every specialized version of the blockchain. When speaking to the blockchain as we know it, he is correct that most companies don't really need it. The most compelling case for blockchain is where the asset is created within the blockchain itself (IE blockchain's killer app... Digital Currency), or maybe even created once and traded without the need for editing the initial values (this could be like the launch of a company and the shares are traded off, sold, by the company itself, but even this case has some issues).
The article details very well when to avoid blockchain. Here is a snippet:
Conclusion
As I mentioned in the introduction, if your project does not fulfill every single one of these conditions, you should not be using a blockchain. In the absence of any of the first five, you should consider one of: (a) regular file storage, (b) a centralized database, (c) master–slave database replication, or (d) multiple databases to which users can subscribe.
And if you do fulfill the first five, there’s still work to do. You need to be able to express the rules of your application in terms of the transactions which a database allows. You need to be confident about who you can trust as validators and how you’ll define distributed consensus. And finally, if you’re looking at creating a shared ledger, you need to know who will be backing the assets which that ledger represents.
