Building relationships in Business is important however, do NOT get too comfortable

4

Building relationships in Business is important however, do NOT get too comfortable, waiting till YOU think is the right time to introduce your business can cost you a sale.

I am always building relationships with new Friends and I recently had a new Friend on FB and found we had A LOT in common. Being that he has been extremely busy building a retail store, putting
together a website and being a Dad of a toddler, I felt he would not have the time to start a home based business, so, I did not bring it up. Well guess what, someone else did and low and behold, he joined. Don’t get me wrong, I am happy for the rep that got the sale, however, it certainly taught me a very valuable lesson. I got very comfortable in building this relationship and ASSUMED he had enough on his plate. People that are busy, basically are successful and are open to taking on another project especially when they see great value and potential of adding another source of income to their portfolio.

Being that there are a gazillion prospects out there, I know that I will be able to build new relationships and introduce my business to them BUT and I repeat BUT, I will NOT assume because like I always say, “If you don’t ask, it is surely a NO.”

Let me show you why Network Marketing extinguishes The Four Major anxieties of Starting Your Own Business

8

Let me show you why Network Marketing extinguishes The Four Major anxieties of Starting Your Own Business and why you should open your mind and explore your options.

First off, let me ask a simple question. If you have NEVER been in your own business, online or offline, what is your fear of wanting to be your own boss?

You are not alone with the fears but let me tell you, the following will most likely convert your feelings.

Imagine all the barricades were taken away, would you then consider starting your own business?
Amazingly, a survey of several thousand people who had always worked for someone else, 85% said they would rather work for themselves.
Lets face it, if your concerns about starting your own business never existed, then you would have no fear of doing so, right?
In my opinion, why wouldn’t everyone want to be in control of their own life, their own paycheck and my all time favorite, work their own hours ! Oh my, what a concept.

So lets breakdown the four most common fears that literally STOP people
from controlling their own life.

1.  I do NOT have the capital to invest in a business venture, it just costs way too much.

2.  I do NOT have 80 hours a week to build a business and have to wait 1-2 years to see results.

3.  I do NOT want to take the risk of being the majority that fails.

4.  I do NOT have the knowledge and or experience on running my own business,after all don’t all business owners have to know:

1.  accounting
2.  taxes
3.  marketing
4.  sales expertise

Sadly, most people wished they had started their own business when they were younger but now that they have the responsibilities of Family, mortgage and a few mouths to feed they feel its not a possible reality for them.

With that all being said, if I could show you a way to start your very own business for:

1. under $100.00
2. work for 5-15 hours a week
3. stay at your present job until your business income = your current paycheck
4. continual mentoring, training and support for free

would that pique your interest? Of course it would. By the way, there is no catch.
There are several companies out there that WILL tell you:

1.  you never have to really work
2.  you will make millions in your first 3 minutes
3.  there will NEVER be any extra costs

Truth is, Network Marketing is hard work, however, the results are very rewarding.
As E.F. Hutton once quoted:
” We make money the old-fashioned way, we earn it!”

Hey, if you find a business that makes you millions in your first 3 minutes…please feel free to share, we would all love to know about it :-) . On a more serious note, RUN if anyone ever tells you that. It generally takes a few months to show a profit, although,some have pulled it off in as little as a month though.

Lets face it, there will always be extra costs in anything you do should you want to catapult your business.

1.  you may want to expand your advertising.
2.  you may want to upgrade your computer, printer, etc.
3.  you just may want to hire yourself an assistant (that’s a good thing, means you are succeeding)

all of which are great tax deductions, by the way, you would NEVER get these tax deductions working for someone else, just an FYI.

Are you able to now visualize yourself financially free in 12- 36 months with not having to:

1.  spend thousands of dollars
2.  working it 24/7/365
3.  keeping your present job during the growing stages of your business

of course you can.

Now here is a scenario that I am sure you will find humorous.
You decide to buy your very own Franchise for a mere 1 million dollars.
The business fails and you call the Corporate office and ask for a
“Return Authorization Number” so you can get your franchise fee back, plus
a reimbursement check for all the unsold stock, supplies and all the other
expenses you incurred during this venture.
Now imagine this scene in your head, there are crazy loud sirens flying past you to
resuscitate the corporate officer you spoke too about your request because he lost consciousness
from laughing so hard at you or better yet, the little white paddy wagon coming to take you away to
your very own padded room with a designer jacket that hugs you all the time.

Now, in Network Marketing that would never happen because its the law. A legitimate, legal Network Marketing company has the ability to refund a failed distributor on all product and marketing materials that can be resold, minus 10% restocking and processing fees.

Hows this for some positive reinforcement for you to ponder:

1.  Donald Trump just bought a Network Marketing Company
2.  Robert Kiyosaki supports the Network Marketing Industry and encourages people to get involved
3.  Warren Buffet now owns Pampered Chef

Ok so there you have it! Are you still anxious, fearful,afraid, alarmed, biting nails, butterflies, concerned, disquieted, doubtful, feel in bones, foreboding, frozen, get vibes, have a hunch, have cold feet, have funny feeling, have stage fright, hung up, in a cold sweat, in a dither, in a sweat, jellyfish, jittery, jumpy, lily-livered, mistrustful, running scared, scaredy-cat, shaky, stiff, suspicious, troubled, uncertain, uneasy, uptight, weak, worried, worried sick about starting your own business in Network Marketing? Still think its too good to be true? I proposition you to find a catch.
There are two basic reasons why people have never pursued Network Marketing:

1.  never knew about it
2.  preconception (usually from someone you know that failed & is disgruntled OR has never been involved themselves)

Do not take on what someone elses experience in Network Marketing because they failed, decide for yourself and make your own decision based on your due diligence, which I encourage.

I hope you gained some knowledge from this article and look forward to hearing back from you about joining forces with me in my Network Marketing Company.

Well, off to the beach I go, its that time of day !

See you at the Top!

The importance of Mindset is key throughout your life.

8

The importance of Mindset is key throughout your life. I was recently at a mindset seminar and throughout the day, the speaker would tell us of different stories throughout his career of people he has coached, met and became Friends with.

This particular story to me was quite inspiring for those that do NOT believe there is more to life than what has been generationally engrained in their minds their entire life, starting from childhood.

Jimmy had the traditional generation mindset. His Parents, Grandparents, and so on were butchers. So it was Jimmys destiny to become a butcher and follow in his Familys footsteps. Jimmy was working 70+ hours a week and was not making the money of what he thought he was worth. Then one day Jimmy was introduced to network marketing and thought he could definitely do this. He jumped in with both feet,bought every training kit, every seminar, every book he could get his hands on and couldn’t wait to start making it in this business!
Jimmy, read every book, watched every video, listened to all the audios and FAILED at his first network marketing venture. But being the Man that Jimmy was his passion to succeed in this industry was even stronger than ever. Long story short…Jimmy tried 17 more network marketing companies and FAILED!!!! He knew deep down to his core that if he tried just one more time, just one more, but Jimmys Wife was getting real upset with him because he had spent most of their life savings on all these ventures pursuing his dream. Now Jimmy is in his 19th network marketing company and here’s where all of his hard work, dedication,persistence and drive got him…Jimmy went on to make $400,000 a MONTH in the 19th company he tried and is the top earner! Now, Jimmy goes on the road and speaks to groups about never giving up and always having faith, even when it seems like nothing is going right. This is my absolute favorite part about Jimmys story, Jimmy was 80 years young when he was the Top Earner, simply amazing. Jimmy is now 84 and is engaged all around the world as a speaker to Network Marketing Companies.

“Jimmy The Butcher” is a real person, Google him and see for yourself.

The moral of this article is “Never give up on your dreams, NEVER.” Chances are you WILL run into heartache, frustration, tears, Friends and Family telling you you are crazy, but its your dream,
and YES you can make it realistic through perseverance, drive, passion and staying focused on the prize!

The old saying still holds …………….

The old saying still holds …………….
“The proof is in the pudding”

Yesterdays article was about the importance
of blogging and videoing everyday to get the
traffic you strive for to build your business.

Well, before I posted and cut a video yesterday,
my Alexa rating had dropped dramatically during
the five day test. The last Alexa rating was:
9-13 GLOBAL- 468,995 US- 69,459 7AM

Shortly after I captured that info, I shot a quick video and
posted an article…well this morning I checked my Alexa
rating and WOWZA, WOWZA, WOWZA…..unreal results:
9-14 GLOBAL- 448,880 US- 60,455 9AM

I cannot make this stuff up…so, as I said yesterday and I will
repeat it again….be consistent with posting on your blog with
articles, videos….CONTENT, CONTENT, CONTENT is Key !!!

The importance of blogging everyday

13

The importance of blogging everyday WILL result in excellent Alexa ratings.
I ran a test for 5 days [Sept 9-13] to really see how NOT writing an article or cutting a video, everyday, would effect my Alexa rating.
Dang, the results were dramatically changed, which inspired me to write this article to hopefully encourage many of you to
stay on track with your blogging and of course to get my ratings back on track !

I started my Blog nearly 3 months ago and started tracking my Alexa ratings on August 20 [see chart below]. It was quite uplifting everyday to see how the numbers changed everyday knowing that I was in fact getting great traffic to my blog. Daily content, videos will rank you higher with Alexa which in return will drive traffic which leads to relationships and then finally sales.

For those of you that do not know what Alexa is, well, the traffic rank shows how popular your site is. It Sizes up your competition on the Web!

* The Alexa Traffic Rank will show how popular the site is compared to yours, including Reach, Page views and more.
* Search Analytics will show you which terms your competition is using to get traffic.
* The Audience data will show you what kind of visitors your competition is attracting.
* The Clickstream data will show you where your competition is getting traffic from affiliate programs and partners.

Catch and Release negative thoughts

16


Catch and Release negative thoughts is a very POWERFUL technique that will change your mindset as long as you apply it. When you have a negative belief – catch it out loud, slam it into an imaginary garbage can, put a helium balloon on it and release it away. When you have done that, come up with a word of conviction and a body movement that will validate your release, IE: I say “BAM” and firmly clap my hands.

1. is it possible to catch and release?
2. are you willing to catch and release?
3. are you ready NOW?

This nugget I had learned at Dr. Benny Morris’ seminar and I have to say, IT WORKS. Lets face it we are all faced with negative thoughts on a daily basis. They could be from something someone said to you, an action that you witnessed or even something as simple as your computer crashing just like mine did while composing this article, thank goodness for autosave ;-)

Here is a true story of a dear Friend of mine [no names will be mentioned for privacy reasons] My Friend is CONTINUALLY belittled and made to feel very inadequate as a Man and Father for NOT being able to provide for his Daughter the way the “belittlers” think he should. He is a very hard working Man and when he is not working his J.O.B. he is diligently building his home business. I have told him on many occasions that He is a good Father for the little things he does for His little Girl. Its not about the THINGS you can buy, its the reading a book, sharing an ice cream cone,pushing her on a swing and praising her for the good things she does that are priceless.
He virtually gets NO support from these “belittlers” for his efforts on his home business and is basically told he is wasting his time. I have advised him on many occasions to focus on the positive and the pay-off for his business AND personal life WILL change dramatically.
I am intending for this article to shed some light on the many people that are trapped in the same nasty web my Friend is.

Releasing toxic thoughts is very cleansing for both your business and personally. Harboring those nasty thoughts just builds up in your mind until everything around you is crushing and your body posture is slumped over and the tone in your voice is very down and monotone.

Most people, such as myself, like to surround themselves with positive, energetic, successful individuals, so why not be one of those where people WANT to be around you.

So, now ask yourself the 3 questions above:

1. is it possible to catch and release? ABSOLUTELY
2. are you willing to catch and release? You better be
3. are you ready NOW? I KNOW you are !

Your Wants vs. Intentions

14


Your Wants vs. Intentions can be the game changer in your life and business.
want:
1. to feel a need or a desire for; wish for: to want one’s dinner; always wanting something new.
2. to wish, need, crave, demand, or desire (often fol. by an infinitive): I want to see you. She wants to be notified.
3. to be without or be deficient in: to want judgment; to want knowledge.
4. to fall short by (a specified amount): The sum collected wants but a few dollars of the desired amount.
5. to require or need: The house wants painting.

intend:
1. to have in mind as something to be done or brought about; plan: We intend to leave in a month.
2. to design or mean for a particular purpose, use, recipient, etc.: a fund intended for emergency use only.
3. to design to express or indicate, as by one’s words; refer to.
4. to mean or signify.
5. Archaic . to direct (the eyes, mind, etc.).

I attended a private seminar that Dr. Benny Morris was gracious enough to present to Numis Reps ONLY!
He kept us on our toes, physically, mentally and spiritually throughout the day. There was a lot of laughter, ah-ha moments, tears and as I say “BAM” now I get it.

I cannot begin to tell you the nuggets Dr. Benny shared, I have pages of notes that will take quite sometime to breakdown, absorb and eventually share with you.

Dr. Benny is truly a Man of integrity, knowledge and compassion, he touches every heart that he comes across, I know he did mine. In this intimate venue, Dr. Benny touched on many topics, all of which were based on mindset. In this video I discuss wants and intentions:

Video Marketing is the MOST powerful tool for your Business

8


Video Marketing is the MOST powerful tool for your Business hands down.

During the past few weeks since I had attended an event with my primary business, I have realized the value of video marketing and how the exposure has without a doubt increased the traffic to my site. Here is the past 6 days report from ALEXA:

8-20 GLOBAL- 926,126 US- 143,739 1PM
8-21 GLOBAL- 901,166 US- 140,531 7AM
8-22 GLOBAL- 830,108 US- 142,956 9AM
8-23 GLOBAL- 708,956 US- 101,640 2PM
8-24 GLOBAL- 680,714 US- 95,961 8AM
8-25 GLOBAL- 654,782 US- 91,519 1PM

A few months back I had entered a contest and I had to submit recipes including a 10 minute video of me cooking for 12 weeks….WOW what a challenge that was….here’s one as an example:

Now, I just started this program Quick Video Marketing, its a comprehensive video marketing training and free traffic generation course. QVM simplifies video creation, production, mass distribution and promotion, and exposes stealth video and Web 2.0 techniques. Basic to advanced strategies, w/ beginner in mind. The challenge has actually been a lot of fun for me and I am learning how to get creative and brand myself NOT so much my business, people buy into YOU not what your marketing! If you are NOT doing video marketing, you are leaving money on the table. One of my business partners, Mia, is actually very well known now on the internet and known as the video queen (most of her sales come from her videos) .

Do yourself a favor and get that camera out and start, start somewhere with a topic and if you’re not sure, get the course that I use and get educated on the process of bringing your business to the next level :-) … this will be by far one of the best products you will ever need.

Are you Frustrated?

3

Are you Frustrated either in business or personal?

I am sure the answer is YES to either one and some may be experiencing frustration in both categories.

Here is a very simple assignment that could eliminate your frustration(s):

1. pick a frustration and write it down
2. for the next 21 days keep a thanksgiving journal

ie:
Frustration:
writers block for my blog
Journal:
1. I am thankful for the traffic I get to my site
2. I am thankful my Husband made the coffee this morning, again :-)
3. I am thankful for the Friends I have made
4. I am thankful for my business
5. I am so thankful for the great dinner my Children made

Ok, so you get the idea, by the 22nd day you will see your frustration is not such a big deal and you will be able to move forward and attack that particular frustration with ease.

I hope this little tidbit is helpful to you.

WOW…it’s August 15th

0

WOW…it’s August 15th, a week already has passed since the Numis Convention that I attended and I am still in awe of the many people, speakers, training and energy I met and experienced.

There is NO doubt in my mind that implementing EVERYTHING I learned will bring my Business and myself to the level I have always dreamed of.

My mindset has always been focused with clarity on what my goals and achievements are and will be, however, my priorities were just a tad jumbled. Looking back on my daily patterns I WAS all over the place trying to get everything done at once. I have now set a daily schedule on my Google calendar on exactly what I MUST do at certain times of the day, so NO MORE sticky notes taking over my desk and wall…even my forehead at times :-) . One of the common threads that every speaker spoke of was plan out your day, week, month, etc. that WILL create success in all aspects of life. I have to say, it has actually made my work day alot more fun, productive and a heck of alot less stressful. Sticking to the schedule you create is imperative in order to get the results you want. Hey, there are times something not on your schedule gets thrown into the mix but thats ok as long as you address it and move on.

Being that I am also a Mom & Wife, that is my #1 priority and one that I take pride in.
Here’s an example of what my day looks like:

7AM-8AM – breakfast – meditation – affirmations
9AM-10AM – write an article for my blog
10AM-11AM – read & or listen to motivational,edu books/cd’s
11AM-12PM – make a new video-youtube/blog
12PM-1PM – make dinner :-) so my Family is nourished later
1PM-2PM – eat lunch/read
2PM-3PM – make my list of prospecting calls/advertise
3PM-4PM – power nap
4PM-5PM – address e-mails
5PM-6PM – dinner with Family :-)
6PM-8PM – prospect calls/go-for-no’s
8PM-8:30PM – go over next days schedule
9PM-11PM – attend available trainings

Well that’s it, plain & simple plan to follow, stay consistent, committed and passionate about what you do….and JUST DO IT !!!

Ciao for now !
