We’re Playing the Long Game

Is life really just a game? Like the game of chess we make our moves and we strategize our plan hoping for a desired outcome or Win at the end. Some people have Great plans while others just go about life reacting to the moment with no real plan at all. We all have to make decisions about how we are going to play this game based on the outcome we desire. Sometimes people play the “short game” and are scattered about by instant convenience and the drama of the day, where others play “the Long Game” and plan their moves with great strategy. They have goals, daily task, a defined “why” they are in the game at all and they work diligently to execute their game plan. They are “Playing the Long Game”.

Network Marketing has these aspects as well and we see far too many people playing the short game of “get rich quick” or “instant fortunes” via money games and hyped up promises of wealth. When in reality, to Succeed in Network Marketing you must play the long game to win and achieve your dreams. We have many who join our business with great intentions and hopes but thirty days down the road they are ready to quit because they didn’t “make it” in Network Marketing. What a fallacy in the networking industry because it takes time and effort to actually build an organization and team that can pay you the residual income that Everyone desires.

The money games are everywhere and use hype and fluffed promises of over night riches and instant millionaires with fancy homes and exotic sports cars. But the majority of people we know that are succeeding with their home based business did their homework and made a plan to get from where they are now to where they wanted to be. We call this “Playing the Long Game“! We spent the last two years looking at different programs and companies, even joining a few, just to see what their mission is and how they related to their distributors. We were looking for a newer company that didn’t already have a large following but still had the solid foundation and core systems to position themselves for Massive Growth. We talked to owners and distributors alike to find out what they see in the industry and how they would work to maximize the potential for growth. We also wanted to know how they were going to accomplish this in the networking field and within their business platform. We wanted to know how they were going to be compliant with the FTC and have a true business model of customers, affiliates and distributors to maintain a long lasting platform for their business. These are all very serious questions and often over looked by the distributor in the field but very important to the Success of any business.

There is NO shortage of Network Marketing companies out there and you can find about 27 Million entries if you Google “best network marketing company” today. If someone is just looking for another program to join they can do this in about 1.5 seconds via a search, but that doesn’t tell the whole story. Again, are you playing the short game or the Long Game? Picking the wrong company based on a flashy website can be a major setback and cost you lots of money with little success. Or having a company fold on you because they were just playing money games or just a recruiting platform with no real customers. The FTC (Federal Trade Commission) is really scrutinizing networking companies and trying to weed out the bad ones that are really just ponzi schemes or money games. This makes it really important to research the company that you are going to put your time and effort into so you know you have a solid future ahead.

We live in an instant society where everyone has become accustom to right here, right now commerce and satisfaction. People are able to get just about anything they want at the push of a button these days and then think that they can join a business and see instant results. Sorry but it just doesn’t work quite that way in Network Marketing. I wrote a blog about this some time ago that compared Network Marketing to Working Out at the gym. You can not go on a diet for a month and expect to reach all your health goals just to return to your old self after this short time. And in Network Marketing you can’t join a business for a month and then declare it a failure because you didn’t make ten grand right out the box.

But, You Can Play the Long Game! You can find the right company with the right sponsor and coaches that can teach you the skills to help you make a plan that will get your new home based business started up and running toward Success. This is a process and takes a little time but the rewards are Greater than any J.O.B. you will ever have. We find that it is “Time Freedom” that most people really desire in life because most are tired of running the rat race and working their tail off to build someone else’ dream-life. If You Commit to the process and Educate Yourself on the skills and tools needed to succeed, then you can learn to take Massive Action to reach Your Own Dream Life. We call this “Playing the Long Game“!

We have done the homework and researched the companies to come up with the most Exciting opportunity in Network Marketing today. We have talked with the owners and people in the field to make sure they are executing a plan that is going to bring True Value to the market place and build a platform that will sustain a profitable business for the long term. We made sure they have considered everyone in the process from the basic customer to the team builder so that Everyone gets rewarded for their efforts. This company needs Unique and Consumable products that bring real value at realistic prices so people can afford them. We also wanted to make sure the purchases make sense and are not over priced just to support the commission structure. They also need to have the core systems that will be required to take this program to the masses on a massive scale and be able to produce when they have to. We wanted a company that will have Global implications to expand their market and be able to reach out to customers and distributors all over the world. We were looking for a company that was “Playing the Long Game” and not just playing money games.

It’s been a long search for such a solid company with great potential but we have planted our flag and found our home.

We are looking to build a Massive Organization with the Simple Dream TEAM and Electi and yes, we would love to connect with you about this exciting new opportunity. You can also visit our personal website at DeanAndDena.com to learn more about who we are and what we are all about.

How to Attract Your Best Prospects

There is a battle going on in Network Marketing between “Old School” and the new “21st Century” style of marketing. Back in the day, before the internet, people would get into Network Marketing and we were all taught to make our list of friends and family and people we knew that we could pitch our opportunity to. This was brutal for most distributors because most people would run and hide just seeing you come their way. We practiced the “3 foot rule” meaning anyone within three feet was someone to pitch to, we went to malls and cruised for prospects and anyone that would listen was free game. It was a lot harder because we didn’t have email or social media or all the tools available to networkers today via the internet. But, it was truly a Networking business where you found interested partners, you built a relationship with them and helped develop them into committed business partners.

Then came the internet! Now you could access emails and have “instant” contact with many more people than ever before and as social media came around then prospects were plentiful. Now you could market to the world instead of just your own city where you lived. What a Great tool this was going to be in finding new business associates and customers for your product and opportunity. It truly was the Holy Grail of marketing, the future had arrived for Network Marketing! Problem is that the internet is just a tool like any another tool in your networking tool box and way to often people forget that “Network” aspect of Network Marketing and forget that they actually need to talk to someone to build that relationship and friendship that will keep them in your network over time.

The internet became a crutch to many that just wanted to market to the masses and some even boast of their “I never talk to anyone” approach. This type of marketing does get results but has led to the highest attrition rates we have ever seen in this industry. People use “hype” to lure in many new prospects and sign up dozens if not hundreds of new associates only to watch them drop like flies in the first 30 days because no one has any skin in the game. They focus on recruiting and signing people up, making their downline look good, but never train or spend time with those that are in their organization so people just quit in no time. They make fast start bonuses and front end money but they are never able to keep their teams together so they have to go find more, and more, and more, and so on, never realizing that they have created a vicious cycle of downline failure.

Network Marketing is a business that has the potential to lift people to great heights, when executed properly, and the internet can be a very good tool for building your team. But Network Marketing is a relationship business and should not just be a recruiting business. The internet offers some of the best tools for connecting and supporting your team and bringing Value to your organization via blogs, training, webinars and social support. Use the internet as a tool to “build” your business and increase your network so that your business partners become successful with your team and opportunity. Via the internet you can quickly connect with like minded people that want to hear what you are offering because people are looking to increase their standard of living and wealth. But “Everyone is Not a Prospect”.

We use systems to educate and school people on what Network Marketing is and how it works. We want people to know what we do and why, take their own time to investigate our opportunity and offering and then contact us for more info. We don’t just throw our business in someones face yelling “Join Me Now or you will miss out”. If people do not understand Network Marketing and don’t really get to know how it works and why then they will just drop out in a month because they don’t “get it”. We use tools and websites that explain the process and schools people on what we do and how it works so that they can decide for themselves if this business is right for them or not. We never try and convince someone to “join today” before the “special” ends tonight because this just gives all of us a bad rap and makes us look like a bunch of con-men doing a crazy deal. Take the time to educate people about your business and your opportunity and “why” it might be a great fit for them. Let them learn what it is you do and bring value to the process by offering training and support to show them that They can be Successful too. This is often called “Attraction Marketing” because you attract the right kind of prospects that are really looking for a better way.

Attraction Marketing is the absolute best way to find prospects and future partners for your Networking business. Take the time to set yourself apart from all the spam type marketers and really bring value that will attract others to you instead of dragging them into the process. Just like any other business out there, not Everyone is going to succeed with Network Marketing and that’s OK. But everyone that wants to take the time to Educate themselves about what we do and how we do it, and are Committed to learning the process, can Succeed if they Truly want it bad enough. It all comes back to “Commit, Educate and ACT!”, it really is that simple. Commit to finding your level of Success and discover your true reason that You are going to make it happen. Educate yourself on how the business works and what tools and training you need to be Successful with your new business. But most of all, Take Massive Action to create a Network of Success by building up people and supporting your TEAM. We work really hard at making sure we have put together the tools and training you need to succeed in Network Marketing. We have done the due diligence on what opportunity is poised for massive growth and has the structure and foundation to be the next Billion dollar company. We have put together the tools you need to market your new business and make the connections to build your team fast. And most importantly we are here to Help You Succeed by offering all the support and training you need to build long lasting, life changing incomes through Network Marketing with our favorite program and Simple Dream Team.

The Entrepreneur Inside You?

While listening to a webinar the other night with some multi-million dollar earners in Network Marketing there was a conversation about being an Entrepreneur. The discussion was one that really made me stop and ponder the whole meaning of being a Real Entrepreneur or just being a disgruntled employee, there is a big difference. I was setting there listening to Network Super Star Mark Hooverson discuss how he knew, when he was even a little kid, that he had the Entrepreneur spirit and how even in his youth he always knew he could do more, be more and have more if he just did his own gig instead of working for someone else. I could relate because I had been making money on my own since I was about 12 years old when dear ole Dad loaded me up and took me to the store to buy a lawn mower. He wheeled it outside and said “Here, the first $35 you make pays me back, after that Your in business!” and I was off to start my enterprise.

Entrepreneurial spirit is a mindset. It’s an attitude and approach to thinking that actively seeks out change, rather than waiting to adapt to change. It’s a mindset that embraces critical questioning, innovation, service and continuous improvement. This spirit comes from the inside and burns like a passion to make things happen that will increase our value and worth. Entrepreneurship can be defined as “…the capacity and willingness to develop, organize, and manage a business venture along with any of its risks in order to make a profit.” This burning desire to do your own thing is not for everyone but can be had by anyone that is willing to “do the deal” or work harder to be better everyday. This comes from “Commitment, Education and Action”. Anyone can learn to run their own business but not everyone will make the effort. It takes a special kind of willingness to push yourself, and get it done on your own, that some people just don’t have. Too often people are only motivated when the are pushed by outside forces instead of pushing themselves and this usually comes in the form of a boss. As long as someone is telling them when to work, how much to work and what they have to do, then they can perform a service, but to push their own efforts and do things without the outside influence then they just don’t get it done, they would rather watch another season of TV then actually do something that might increase their standard of living.

The Real Entrepreneur seeks out the knowledge to develop and organize a business plan that they can execute to build something that is greater than what they had yesterday. They are willing to take risk and step out of the comfort zone to do the things that most just won’t do. Just because you hate your job or you hate your boss and wish you could work for yourself doesn’t always transfer into a Successful home based business. We hear it all the time, “man I just want to quit my job and work from home” and that is a novel idea alright but the key word here is “work”. You Can work from home and you Can make way more money working from home then you do at your soul sucking J.O.B. (Just Over Broke). But the challenge becomes, what are you willing to do to make that happen? Are you truly interested in learning new life skills and organizing a game plan that will kick start your new business, OR do you just wish you could sit around the house all day and play around on Facebook?

Anyone can be an Entrepreneur! But let’s go back to the definition of being a True Entrepreneur “…the capacity and willingness to develop, organize, and manage a business venture along with any of its risks in order to make a profit.” This is why so many people fail in Network Marketing, they get involved for all the right reasons but life is busy, people work long hours at their job, kids got activities and more often then not these people don’t take the time to learn the skills needed and actually do a business. You Must Commit, Educate and Act, it really is that simple. It starts with You and learning how to change your mindset from an employee to Entrepreneur. Your Success really comes down to Your “Why”, the real reason you started with Network Marketing to begin with. If it was just out of curiosity and you aren’t really committed to your “Why” then your chance of creating Success drastically goes down. But if your “Why” is bigger than your excuses then you will have the necessary drive to learn the skills and do the deal of moving your home based business forward.

Most people have a reason that they got started with Network Marketing. It usually is more about “time freedom” than just money. We all want the freedom to spend time with our family and children and stop working so many hours of our life. We usually put ourselves in these situations by thinking we need the new car or bigger house and can’t keep our credit card in our wallet and the next thing you know we need to bring in more and more money just to survive. That’s usually when someone sees an ad about work from home, make extra money and they jump on the train hoping to escape the rat race of life. And sometimes necessity is a Great motivator but it can be a double edge sword as well. Too often people have gotten themselves in such a financial bind that they can’t seem to find any available funds to work their new business and so they just quit again and return to what they know best, the ole J.O.B., the comfort zone, another season of Dancing with the Stars or what ever sneaks in and steals their Dreams.

The True Entrepreneur is filled with a passion and a spirit that burns inside and moves them to learn more, do more and certainly Be More! They cannot be content with being a good employee and just getting by in life. The Entrepreneur seeks out the knowledge and life skills that will help them to put together a plan and execute their plan for Massive Success. They set their goals and monitor their progress always looking for a way to increase the value they bring that increases the rewards they reap, it’s a Beautiful thing. Some are born with this burning desire and some just have to learn this skill from where they are in life. It really doesn’t matter what has happened in the past because you can’t change any of that if you wanted to, but it does matter what you do Today that will change where you are going tomorrow. If you have the natural Entrepreneurial Spirit then embrace it and get started on a plan that will create your Dream Life. If you need to learn this skill then by all means, find the education, the support group and surround your self with people that are of the same mindset and change. Jim Rohn says, “If You don’t like where you are in life, Change It, you’re not a tree!”. That’s some Good advice.

Is there an Entrepreneur inside you just waiting to be set Free? We sure hope so! We Love Network Marketing because it gives the average person an opportunity to be Great and do things that others only wish they could do. Will everyone succeed at this Great opportunity? Probably not, but that is Totally up to You. Could You use some help in getting started? Well that is why we are here. We have learned to work with people from where they are at, get them the education and skills to start and then give them the support and training to move their home business forward. We have gone before you to learn what to do and what not to do so that you can lean on us for guidance. We have the training, we have the opportunity, we have the support and we are here to Help.

True Leverage Makes You Money

You can trade time for dollars or you can learn to leverage the efforts of others to make more income. This is the concept of True Leverage. True Leverage means an increased means by which to attain a desired result. The everyday business man leverages his employees by benefiting from the work they do on a normal work day and leveraging their time and effort to increase his business value. The problem is that the working person that trades his time/hours for dollars can not continue to increase his time spent to leverage more money because there are only so many hours in a day that he or she can work. So how can You use True Leverage to create increased Your income?

Stop trading hours for dollars and start leveraging your value in the market place. We do this with the business model called Network Marketing. With the Network Marketing business model you can use your influence, and network of people all around you, to refer a product and opportunity for anyone to improve their Health, Wealth and Happiness. This business model usually has a low upfront cost and allows anyone, willing to put forth the effort, to accomplish a higher degree of Success in a Home Based Business. In Network Marketing we get paid to refer and move a unique product within our circle of influence thus creating commissions that increase with the number of people in our personal network of business partners we have shared with. We don’t get paid to recruit people, we get paid when we bring people into the opportunity and they purchase the product and refer the products to their network of people that we normally would not have access to. This is True Leverage!

With True Leverage Everyone has the same opportunity to make more money based on the efforts they put forth to increase their network. In the typical business model the CEO makes the most money, the President makes less and answers to the CEO, the Vice President even less and all the way down management to the “employee” that does most of the work and makes the least. This is how most structures in business work and creates less leverage for the average person to make more income without climbing the company ladder. With Network Marketing Everyone has the opportunity to make more than even those above him if he is putting in more effort and moving more product. This network of personal business partners increases product volume and increases dollars made without having to hold a specific level at the top. You can increase your personal business structure by connecting other friends and associates to a unique product or products and it increases the volume of business in your personal organization that pays you on the amount of product or products sold. This is True Leverage!

We get asked all the time, “Well ain’t that one of those pyramid schemes?” And it always makes me chuckle because this same person will be working for a boss that has his company set up on that old “pyramid” structure. This question really comes from a lack of understanding about Network Marketing. Yes, you do get paid from the efforts of others below you because you and your organization are moving more product and creating more commissions for everyone. But even those at the bottom have the same opportunity to make the big checks if they are just willing to bring more people to the table and move more product than those at the top. This whole “pyramid” analogy usually comes from a true ponzi scheme type model where money is obtained in fraudulent investment operation where the operator, an individual or organization, pays returns to its investors from new capital paid to the operators by new investors, rather than from profit earned through legitimate sources. Where Network Marketing just rewards organizations or individuals for referring and moving a product thus paying a commission to a group of people that are leveraging the efforts of others. This is True Leverage.

When looking at Network Marketing opportunities you need to look for 5 Main Principals of the Business. They include:
* A Huge Expanding Market where LOTS of people are drawn.
* A Unique and Consumable Product that people buy over and over again.
* Perfect Timing to take advantage of a coming Trend.
* The Leverage to be able to benefit from the efforts of others.
* And One Super Lucrative Comp Plan

These are the five basic principals you are going to need to succeed in a Network Marketing opportunity. One of the biggest markets that has been setting many trends since the 1950’s and forward is the Baby Boomers group. This group was born between 1946 and 1964 and includes an estimated 76 Million people just in the U.S. and as many as 1 Billion people world wide. This group consist of one third of the population but controls 65% of the money in the market place. The Baby Boomers have been setting massive trends in the market place for many years and will continue to do so over the years to come. Some of the marketing trends coming from this group are Health and looking Younger, Retirement opportunities such as Network Marketing, Technology and efficiency’s and many more. If you can position your business in front of one of these, or all of these, then you are likely to take advantage of a major business trend and leverage this expanding market. These Baby Boomers are Not liking what age is doing to them and they want to be more Healthy, Wealthy and Happy in their aging years. If you want to be Brilliantly Compensated You must focus on industries and companies that have positioned themselves in front of the massive trends.

And that is Exactly what we are doing here with our Network Marketing efforts and leveraging these trends and Electi products to make ever increasing income via this Huge Expanding market, Unique and Exclusive Consumable products, Perfect Timing to get in front of the Trends and Leveraging our way to the top of the Networking Market place. That’s TRUE LEVERAGE!

There is a BIG Wave Coming!

Would You take the advice of a Multi-Million Dollar Network Marketing professional? We certainly hope so because his strategy and teachings have led many to Successful careers in Network Marketing. We are talking about Mr. Tim Sales and his coaching and teaching that centers around the “reason” Network Marketing is such a Great business and game plan for the average person. In his video Brilliant Compensation he teaches how great waves are created in the market place by recognizing current trends and groups that lead to Big Waves of business at certain times, and how You can position yourself in front of these opportunities to ride the wave to Massive Success in Your Network Marketing business. It specifically talks about the “Baby Boomers” and how this large group of people have exploded certain companies and products over the years and how some very savvy business people were able to see these trends and get in front of the wave of business that was barreling toward them. But there’s also a new kid on the block called the “Millennial” and this group is taking the market by storm. Learn to position yourself in front of a Massive wave of new “Social Networking” that will sweep the globe and bring people of all ages and locations together. Doesn’t matter if your young or old, EVERYONE wants to Travel!

We have been on a four year search for an opportunity that was poised for Massive Growth and had all the components that would bring together a massive amount of customers and distributors to create a Massive movement in the Networking arena. This has led us to several companies that are really good companies over the last two years and even joined a few of them just to see what was Really going on behind the scenes. We have looked at SO Many opportunities and different pay plans to come up with what we believe is the Ultimate Network Marketing Opportunity.

We hear it all the time, “I just don’t like Network Marketing” or “I’m just not a team builder, I don’t like to recruit” well That’s Great with us. You see, you don’t have to be a Networker, maybe your just a Great Customer or you like the affiliate model and love great health but hate to recruit people to an over priced auto-ship, That’s Great with Electi because You still Win with this comp plan. This is truly going to Disrupt the industry and create a Huge Wave of new customers, affiliates and of course some of the biggest names in the industry because Everyone Wins with this program.

Thinking About Retirement?

They say that Retirement is the day you finally stop living at work and start working at living. This is a moment in time that is mostly thought of for the elders in our society that have worked for forty years and finally reached a point in life where they can start a new journey, Retirement. No job, no stress, no alarm clock and no commute, what a glorious thing to be retired.

Retirement is a time to start one’s Golden Phase and learn to live again and give your childhood dreams one more try. But statistics show that most people are not ready or able to retire even when they have reached this special time of life. The old American Dream of get a good job, work 40 years and retire with benefits is harder and harder to accomplish. Too often we see the elders squeezed out of the job market, let go before they reach that magical point and replaced with younger, cheaper talent. And that is understandable but really hard on those that have worked so hard only to find out they are not needed and too expensive to keep around. It’s a vicious cycle that is playing out every day with those of us that are over 50 and still working.

Retirement is suppose to be a time of Adventure, Relaxation, Friendships and Travel. But, the statistics show that the average savings of a 50 year old in America are only $42,797.00 and yet you will need over $700,000.00 in savings just to maintain an income of $4,000.00 or so a month, which is less than $50G per year to live off of. All at a time in life when medical cost increase, cost of living in general continues to increase, cost of food, electric and all the daily needs just go up as our time passes by. As much as 80 percent of people 30-54 fear they will not have enough money saved up to even be able to retire in their later years. So what gives? Do You have a plan to reach this Golden Phase in life?

How about we offer an alternative, a different plan that can not only provide a great income but also offer better Health, Wealth and Happiness. A plan that you can start on now, and make it work even if you are already over 50 or even later in life. You get to meet new and exciting people that are positive and motivated to experience all that life has to offer. You get to experience new and exciting nutrition products that can Elevate your Health and help you live a better, more productive life. You get the opportunity to make some extra income and Elevate your Wealth so you have more resources to travel and do the things you always thought retirement would be like. And all this makes you a Happier Retired Awesome person that others can only envy. It sure beats sitting on the couch watching Judge Judy reruns eating ramen noodles!

Retirement should be a time of Joy and Adventure not a time of loneliness and depravity. Network Marketing is one of the smartest journeys you can start whether you are 20 years old or 55 years old. But if you are already speeding down the journey of life wondering what the heck to do now then Network Marketing can be a game changer for your retirement. It makes for a great avenue to meet new people, make new friends and network with those that are positive and adventurous. Spend your time planning your next exciting vacation instead of your next afternoon of playing cards or watching that dream stealing box called TV.

The Dream Catcher

The Dream Catcher originated with the Ojibwe people and later adopted by most Native Americans as a symbol of Unity among the various Native Nations. The mothers and grandmothers would weave magical webs using willow branches and sinew or cordage made from plants. It was believed that the Dream Catcher would catch the bad dreams and only let the good dreams pass to you in your sleep. Once the sun rose all the bad dreams and thoughts that were caught in the web would disappear.

We can learn a lot from those that have gone before us and lived a life that we can’t even imagine today. I think we could all use a Dream Catcher these days to help filter the negative dreams and thoughts we all must face in the day in and day out fight for control of our own mind. It is absolutely true that we are what we think and if your thoughts are positive and good then you can experience that in your life but if they are negative and bad then that will be your experience.

We all have Dreams that we wish our life would be like. To some it’s more time, for some it’s more money and for some it’s just a simpler life. Too often we get caught up in the “keep up with the Jones” mindset and think we need to have the new house, two new cars, the credit cards and material things that we see others with and compare our situation to theirs with envy. I know because we have been there as well. We had the new house, we had a Lexus in the driveway a Corvette just sitting there and our daughters drove nice cars as well. We looked like we were living the Dream but in reality we were up to our eyeballs in debt and really didn’t own anything. Don’t get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with having the nicer things in life. . . when you can afford them. Just don’t become a slave to debt to the point that you loose control over your precious life.

We call it “The Simple Life” now. Our Dream was to get out of debt where we could enjoy what we made and live a life full of Joy instead of stress. We still have a nice quaint little house, we live on the lake with a boat in the slip, we have nice vehicles and all but the best part of all is we have NO payments. We do pay rent and it took us 6 years to find our current dream house that is a small cabin like place with a big screened in porch right on the lake, no place I’d rather be. We work for ourself, get up when we want and do what we want with whom we want and spend lots of time just enjoying LIFE. That was our Dream and we Love our Simple Life. We caught our Dream!

We don’t tell you this for envy but to say that after 54 years of living we finally sat down and decided what was important to us, where we wanted to be, and designed a life that fit that situation. You can do this too! If you are buried in debt, stressed to the max and not happy with your situation then You are the only one that can make the change. Maybe it’s time to Catch Your Dream and simplify Your life? This is a process and you can’t change your situation over night but you can change the direction you are headed. We see people all the time that jump into Network Marketing because they bought into the hype and thought they would make a fortune overnight. Problem is that Network Marketing is not a “get rich quick” plan. But it is a way to change the direction and reset the sail so to speak.

We love Network Marketing because it gives the average person the best opportunity to live their Dream if they will just Commit, Educate and ACT. Commit to the process and find your reason that is going to keep you going even when your struggling to get started. Educate yourself with the knowledge to move your Networking journey forward. Learn what you need to become a Successful Networker and develop the skills to inspire others to do the same. But most of all, ACT! Take Massive Action and do the deal, don’t just talk about it Do IT! If you wanted to earn a Doctors pay you would have to commit to being a doctor, educate yourself on how to be a doctor and then go be a doctor. Networking is the same process. Commit to the change, Educate yourself in the “how” and Go forth and Be a Network Marketing Success story.

People ask us all the time “what are you selling?”. Know what, we sell the Dream! The dream to be better, to live fuller and Enjoy Life. The Dream to be who you want to be and to live the Simple Life that everyone dreams about. Can everyone do it? Yes but not everyone will succeed at it because their reason, or their “Why”, just wasn’t strong enough to push them to change. Want to change where you are then you have to change what you are doing and change your daily habits to lead your life in a different direction. Catch Your Dream!

We work with all kinds of people from different walks of life. Professionals, blue collar white collar, moms and housewives, young and old and it really doesn’t matter where you are, it matters where you want to be. We can give you all the tools and education to learn a new life-skill that can Dramatically change the direction you are headed. All you have to do is Commit, Educate and ACT! It really is that Simple!

Twenty Years From Now

Mark Twain once wrote; “Twenty Years from now you will be more disappointed by the things You didn’t do than by the ones you did do.”

Twenty years seem like such a long time, until it passes and you realize all those things you were going to accomplish have somehow gone unfinished. Life has a way of distracting our dreams and desires of our youth and sometimes, too often, keeps us in a situation that we really did not want. We get comfortable with our day to day life and just live in the now instead of our dreams, letting life keep us in the box. Twenty Years from now, where will you be?

This “comfort zone” that we all hear so much about is the daily struggle to pay bills, take care of our family and just get by in life and we have All been there. Sometimes it’s easier to just go with what you know instead of breaking out and taking another path, a path less traveled but a journey to a better life. Only by taking risk and learning different skill sets do we change the direction we are headed and move forward toward a more fulfilling life. Another Great quote is; “Never give up on a dream because of the time it will take to accomplish it, the time will pass anyway.” ~Earl Nightingale.

So, Twenty Years from now, what are you going to be doing and where will you be in your journey called life? This time is going to go by way quicker than you think and twenty years from now you will look back and say, Wow that was great or darn I should have done something different. It’s Your story and you are writing it day by day, you are the author, creator and You control this story of you. What do you want your story to be about? Will it be about drama and all the negative situations that made up the last twenty years or will this story be about adventure and fun times with positive people all around with memories that will last a lifetime?

You can’t change the direction of the wind but you Can change the set of the sail. Are you steering the ship or just drifting in the wind? You have the very unique ability to learn new skills and change your thinking to adjust the direction of life if you just re-set the sail. There is So Much More you can accomplish if you just decide what you want, determine what it will take to get there and just make a plan to GO, no excuses accepted. If it’s new skills you need then find the training and learn the gig, do the work and reap the reward. Maybe it’s the “friends” you have or the ones you hang around with that keep you where you are. Or maybe it’s all in your head? Yeah I know, sometimes that’s the only place it needs to be to affect your daily habits. What ever it is that is holding you back is of your own making and only You can make the change.

Twenty Years from now don’t be disappointed by what you didn’t do just because you let it slip by. Fear is just False Emotions Appearing Real and it steals more peoples dreams than anything in life. You can lean a new skill and put a plan into action that will make a difference Twenty Years from now. You are more powerful than you think and you are more capable than you know but only You can keep your dreams alive. Only You have the power to move your life in a direction that You want it to go. Only You have control over the next Twenty Years.

There are SO many things I wished I had done in the last Twenty Years and so many things I want to do in the next Twenty Years. Twenty Years from now I will be 73 and that is Amazing to say the least. The next Twenty Years are more important than the last because I have control over them where the last twenty are only a memory now. Oh, what I should have done and didn’t are just part of what I did do that makes us who we are and describes the value we bring to our life’s existence. Twenty Years From NOW, how Exciting is that?

We are on a mission to help others Elevate their Happiness and enjoy more of what life has to offer. We work in the Network Marketing arena because it gives an average person a chance to be Extraordinary. Yes you have to learn the skills and do the work but it way easier than going to school for years and years getting thousands and thousands of dollars in debt to become a lawyer or doctor or some other “professional” to make a living. If you just spent the next couple of years learning the simple skills need to excel at Network Marketing you could live the next Twenty Years in Amazing style. It’s your choice and your life and no one else can adjust your sail, it’s up to You!

Traffic, How and Where to Get It

There seems to be this magical, mystical ingredient that is keeping SO many people from achieving success. Anyone that is trying to get their opportunity or content is Always searching for it and everyone thinks it’s the magic ingredient they are missing, Well, they just might be right.

Traffic is King when it comes to getting your message out there. Everyone wants it and Needs it but many struggle to find it. Traffic can be the one ingredient that gets you business or keeps you from seeing the results you are truly after. Traffic, what is it anyway? Traffic is often referred to as having unique or repeat visitors to your site, blog or offering via capture pages or however you are trying to get your message out.

There are basically three types of traffic. The first is Paid Traffic or Traffic you control and can be very effective if you know how to do it and where to get it. The second is Traffic you do Not control or traffic that is organic or free. This type of traffic usually takes more time and effort but it doesn’t cost you to much to get and it’s great when your content or media delivers it to you. Don’t worry, we are going to break this down a bit as we go. The last is the Traffic that you Own and this is usually from your list. I know you have heard “The Money is in the List” and that is certainly correct. When you have spent the time and effort to create a list then you can take your offers, products or just content to your list and you get Instant traffic. So let’s break it down a bit.

Paid Traffic or traffic you control is just that. You create your offer be it capture page, video offering, blog post or what ever you are trying to get people to and you purchase visitors to your offer. The most important part of paid traffic is having a compelling offer that converts. You have to be able to grab someones attention quickly and make them Want To open your offering. We do this with email marketing, driving traffic to our blog post or driving them to a clever capture page to get them to opt into our mailing list or review our sales material. Paid traffic is very effective if done right and it can include PPC (pay per click) it can be solo ads (rent someones list) or now even Facebook advertising is very popular. The type of offer you are presenting often determines the type of paid traffic you go after. The Great thing about paid traffic is it can be “scaled” up or down. If your offer is converting and you are getting a good ROI (return on investment) from your ad or content then you can scale up to increase the amount of eyeballs that are viewing your offer. You can test different approaches and determine where you should drive more traffic or where to stop. Paid Traffic is Fantastic if done Right!

Organic Traffic is traffic you don’t really control but you get because of the work you have put into your content and blogs and such. If you are going to have a blog, which we HIGHLY recommend, then you can always insert specific keywords and SEO (search engine optimization) to bring you organic type traffic. Any site or blog that you create and post content to can have certain keywords that will be picked up by different search engines that will key on your content when people do searches in their favorite search engine. This takes some effort to create but once it is done it is Always there and you can get good, specific traffic from this effort. Blogs are one of the best ways to generate organic traffic because the search engines pick up on blog content really well, takes some effort up front but can pay dividends for years to come. This is why we call it Traffic you don’t control, it’s just brought to you from efforts you put into branding your self or your team. Everyone should be doing this if they are at all serious about being a Top Income Earner in Network Marketing.

The last but Not least of these Traffic methods is traffic you Own! One of the most productive activities that you can undertake is the creation of your list. Once you build your list from people that have opted into your blog, capture page or simple capture form, then you can return to this list to present new offerings when ever you have them or just to keep your team informed on what is happening and relevant to your efforts. This is truly Traffic you own because you own your list. Whenever you post a new blog then create an email about your blog post and take it to your list, Instant Traffic! Have a new product to offer, take it to your list and Instant Traffic and instant sales. Your list becomes one of the biggest key ingredients to your traffic because you can create traffic any time you want it by just going to your list. “The Money is in the List!” Especially when it comes to traffic. If you have built your list then it cost you nothing to generate Instant Traffic to any offering you want to promote.

So the next time you are sitting there thinking “man if I just had some traffic?” you will know exactly how to get it. You can really get traffic anytime you want it you just need to make sure that what you are driving the traffic to is powerful and converts. All the traffic in the world will not make you money unless you have compelling content that converts visitors into prospects and prospects into SALES! Take the time to put together good content via your blog or website or what ever your media choice and then drive some traffic to it, test it and scale accordingly. Traffic is King!

Time to get Real Folks

There is a Great disservice going on in marketing today. You see it All over the internet and spewed by all the self proclaimed guru marketers. I mean it is Truly Everywhere. I know you have heard it too. “Just join my team and you can make Big Money and you don’t have to talk to anyone!” What a crock!

You see people it’s Time to Get REAL Folks! I know they say you never have to talk to anyone, just “automate” your business and you can hit the big time, oh and pay me $997 and I will teach you how.” And what’s worse is people are falling for it left and right. Network Marketing is a business, we have products and we have customers and we have team members. If you are not willing to communicate with people and talk to prospects then you have Very little chance of making it in this business.

Can you imagine telling your children; “Hey little Johnny, to Succeed in life you don’t have to talk with anyone or learn any new life skills just follow my B.S. course and you will go far in life.” Not going to happen. We have to develop communication skills and teach our self new skills all the time. If you are not learning you are not growing. Our society has gotten so used to being entertained all the time and just vegetating in front of the dream stealer called TV hiding out in their house and hiding behind their computer. People, you got to get Out of your comfort zone and talk to people, it’s called “Networking” for a reason.

We know that many people are uncomfortable talking with new people and not sure what to say in some situations but that is NO Excuse not to learn. This thing called the “comfort zone” is holding most people back from Greatness. I know that most people are very comfortable talking about what they do for a living because that is where they know the most about the subject of their work. Ask me about my job and what I do and you can spit that conversation out No Prob. This is only because you are most informed and comfortable talking about a subject you know most about. So, learn about your biz opp company and how it works and what it does so that you can be comfortable talking about that as well. Know your products and how the comp plan works, study the reasons that your opportunity is great and why you joined in the first place, then you can talk with others about it and be comfortable in the conversation.

There is NO Easy button when it comes to Success. I tell people all the time; “If it was Easy then everyone would be doing it and there would be no money to it”. And it’s not that it’s hard, but it does take some study and some effort (work) to become a Great Network Marketer. If you think you are just going to join a program and sit and make the Big Bucks, you are sadly mistaken and will meet with much frustration and quit, there you go right back to that J.O.B. that you hate so much. They call it a J.O.B. because it stands for Just Over Broke!

Stop falling for all the sales pitch that tells you “if you only buy my course, You can make it big!” Stop looking for the easy button and learn something and get to work. Network Marketing has the potential to make you more money in a month then most people make in a year. It can bring about a lifestyle that most only dream of if you do it right. Yes, you are going to have to learn new life skills. Yes, you are going to have to talk to people. Yes, you Are going to have to get off your butt and DO IT or you are just wasting your time. The people I personally know that make 5 and 6 figure months are Action Takers! They don’t spend their time in front of the TV eating cheetos and twinkies watching the latest Kardashian crap. They constantly learn new ways to increase their teams and business volume to create more income. They talk with people on their team and new prospects everyday building an Empire that will last a lifetime. They “Commit, Educate and ACT” everyday because that is what it takes.

If you are looking for the Easy way out, then you are in the wrong place. BUT, if you are teachable and willing to learn new skills that can build an organization of like-minded people that are all heading in the same direction as you, then you too can have the Massive Success with Network Marketing. If you need some help or direction in your journey then I would suggest that you reach out to us and find out what we are doing to live the lifestyle that we LOVE. You have to “Commit, Educate and ACT”, that’s all there is to it.
Time for REAL Talk Folks! Stop falling for all the shinny objects and guru sales pitches. Find your mentor and learn how to move your journey forward. Take Massive Action and you will get Massive Results!
