2011 has finally come to an end and it has been by far the best year for Secret Entourage yet. Just like a year ago, we have a tradition of recapping our most influential and important articles for the year 2011 but more importantly getting a glimpse of things to come for 2012.
As many of you probably experienced, 2011 was a year of hard work and rewards were quite minimal from an economic standpoint. The unemployment market didn’t get better, Europe is still collapsing and war continues to be on the minds of today’s world leaders but 2011 wasn’t all that disastrous. Plenty of opportunities came for people of all income levels to net some serious cash in the various markets and despite unemployment rates still being high, we witnessed a slight increase in large businesses hiring again.
Despite all the craziness the world faced in 2011, Secret Entourage took quite a different twist and grew significantly as a brand. 2011 marked a great year for us at Secret as we finally took the next step in growing our movement. As you may have noticed, we significantly enhanced the new look of of our site by introducing you to a fully redesigned site, logo, and brand in 2011. We took our reader’s advice and actually listened to all they liked and disliked but also made it have massive appeal. We are particularly proud of our very well thought out new logo, which came as a result of the hard work with the help of one of our sponsors. We also redesigned our eBooks, which now finally look as good as they truly are and all carry a money back guarantee. We at Secret are firm believers of the work we do and want to ensure you get true value from these eBooks.
Now on to the fun part. Here is a review of some of the best articles of the year Secret style…

The Maserati ownership experience was one to remember as well, leaving us with some less than desirable experiences to say the least…
The single most important variable of entrepreneurship and life in general is the value you of time.

Three Places Online To Find Business Ideas

A False Opportunity During Rough Times
Without a doubt many people are victims of unemployment which results in sacrifices in their everyday lives to provide for their loved ones. With unemployment comes desperation, a desperation to make ends meet. Unfortunately, many ‘businesses’ offer false opportunity during these rough times by preying on the desperate and uneducated. These opportunities are usually pyramid schemes that are, more or less, scams. We’ve expose these scams in the past but this time take a moment to show you five dead giveaways of a shady business opportunity.
For 2012, we do have a lot in store for you. From great articles to unique videos, we are taking it up two notches and introducing some of our best success stories yet along with some very unique and desirable new eBooks coming to our store. 2012 will also mark the year Secret Entourage will be available as a magazine, so look for more of that later in the year.
On behalf of all of us at Secret Entourage, we wish you all a safe and happy holidays and hope that you have prepared for 2012 as well as we have.
