6 Ways To Choose The Right Home-Based Business

Picking the right home-based business to reach that goal of living in that big house and driving that new Mercedes CL500…oh I’m sorry that’s just my dream..lol…

But whatever dream you are trying to reach, that you have decided that network marketing will help provide, there are a few key things you must know before joining any company.There are a few key things that will provide you with the ability to make sure you are choosing the right one.

Follow these simple tips to make sure you’re with the right home-based business that will give you the best advantage on your journey to MLM success.

1. Your Personal Values

First step is to find a company that aligns with your personal values. Would you buy the product/service if a network marketing opportunity wasn’t attached? Answering this question will keep you excited to share how great the product/service is to your customers.

2. Credibility

Is the company you are looking to join credible and ethical. Do they truly have the distributors and customers interest in mind, promoting and how they conduct business.

3. Need and Want

Is the product/service the company is offering something people really need and actively looking for. Is the price reasonable for your customers or can you buy each cheaper on eBay?

Here is some great advice I heard from a top leader in this industry, Don’t join a company because you love the product, better you fall in love with a product everyone wants.

4. Start up

If the company your researching is least than 2 years old RUUUUUUUN! Wait until the company has stood the test of time. Most companies do not last during the first 2years before they go under.

5. Compensation Plan

The compensation plan must allow the average part time person to be able to make money in the company. Another good idea is to crunch the numbers to make sure you have the best opportunity to make money. What ever recruiting income goal you have ask how many people does it take to reach that amount.

6. Proven System

You must have a proven system that does not quit rather it be offline or online. Ask the person you will be partnering up with, what system are you using and what are your results from using this proven system.

Following these simple tips will help you in choosing the right company to build your network marketing fortune. Also its a good idea to teach your team the skills you have and surround yourself with people who are strong where you are weak.

This will create massive success for your family and the families of the people you touch with your opportunity for years to come.

Until Next Time… May You Have

Success In Abundance!

Your Network Marketing Business Will Never Succeed Without This Key Ingredient

Why do you want to start or why did you start your home business?

The answer to this question is the determining factor in whether you have major success in the network marketing industry.

Most network marketers go through wasted time in their business not knowing why their not creating success for themselves. Taking this one step before you embark on your journey in this industry will create the lifestyle you are dreaming about.

Countless millionaires have proven it many times over. They speak very highly of putting their why into place before they have their new associates talk to one person about their business.

One big misconception of determining your why many people have is making it all about money. Although money is the main challenge you may be having right now, your why just cant be about the money.

Your why should be emotionally attached to you. I once heard from a top network marketer that your why must make you cry.

What is something that is so emotionally attached to you that you literally will Die to get it? This is how strong your why must be, it should break your heart everyday you do not possess whatever it is.

These are the type of emotions and feelings you should have in your business to keep you going.

The main reason your why should be something so emotionally attached to you that it bring tears to your eyes with even the thought of quitting is because there will be tough times. You will not want to get up everyday and do this business.

Life will get in the way your friends will call you crazy and you will come across those people who will tell you no to your opportunity. This is where your why steps in and help you to say, Some Will! Some Won’t! So What! Next!(SW..SW..SW..N)

So is the reason you started your home-business strong enough to withstand the tough times you will face on your journey to network marketing success?

Here are a few tips for you to implement right now:

1. Write your why down on paper

2. Post your why everywhere(bathroom mirror,refrigerator,bedroom ceiling, bedroom mirror, etc.)

3. Read your why first thing in the morning and right before you go to bed at night

Now go out and create your Why and Fly like an Eagle in your business and life.

Why Network Marketing Why Now!

Many people are feeling the squeeze of this economy right now. I just heard, Wal-Mart Stores Inc., the world’s largest retailer, said it is closing 10 Sam’s Club locations in the U.S. This affects 1500 people, leaving them jobless and back in the job searching market, which right now is by far the worst time to be in this phase of your life.

Many people who have been on their jobs for more than 10 years or more are even being laid off by companies that they were supposed to be secure with. As you know job security is a thing of the past, companies are laying off employees left and right.

According to the US. Bureau of Labor Statistics the unemployment rate has went from 5.8 percent in 2008 to 9.3 percent in 2009 with no signs of slowing down.

How secure do you feel at your current job?

For this reason many people are flocking to the Home Based Business Industry at an alarming rate over 200,000 people per week are joining.

Network Marketing is by far the best industry to not only create wealth in the long run. Its a way to solve your right now challenges. I say challenges and not problems because challenges are things that can be solved with money, and problems are things like death in the family or you or someone you know has cancer. That’s a problem that money cant solve.

Network marketing changes you as a person as well as your income level. Network marketing also changes your mindset towards things that happen in your life. So your house being in foreclosure is not a problem its a challenge because whats the solution MONEY.

Network marketing is a way to finally live up to those promises you have made to your loved ones. Trips, fun times and commitments you have made. The opportunity to escape the dungeon of a perpetual job and create the lifestyle you really want. Free to live instead of reporting to duty at a job you can’t stand.

Built right network marketing has the potential to make you more money than the CEO of your job. Allows you to create an opportunity to build a financial lifestyle for your family. Lets you stay at home with your kids instead of working a second job and taking more time from your family. Time you’re already missing out on at your current job work 50-60 hours per week.

Network marketing is all about freedom. Freedom to live life on your terms not being pushed around like a puppet on a string. How does your boss know you are hungry at 12noon everyday? Or when you need to take a break.

Network marketing is a solution to whatever pain you are experiencing financially and mentally in your life right now. Skills sets that you can use in life and business for the rest of your life.

America is built on people who are willing to take risk and who are not scared of change that will better their current situation. If you are a risk taker and sick and tired of being sick and tired I invite you to give network marketing opportunity your full attention. Let me be the first to welcome you to the First Day of the Best Days of Your Life!

How To Guarantee You Are Successful In 2010 With Questions!

All things are difficult before they are easy. -Thomas Fuller

Was 2009 everything you expected it to be?

Did you reach your 2009 resolutions?

As I sit here writing this article, reflecting on how my 2009 has been my main question is how can I make 2010 even better. That’s what my main focus as well as your main focus should be.

Ask yourself, “What can I learn from  2009 that I can improve on in 2010?”

As for me one thing would be getting started late. I get so caught up in the little stuff that it doesn’t leave much time on whats important for better results.

It seems I don’t get started until the end of the month or the end of the year. Although I make things happen I would be able to focus on key areas in my business like tracking my results. My business partner calls me the teams clutch player, he can always count on me to bring in the last few numbers our team needs. I learned though if I take that same make it happen Attitude all month or all year long I will be able to accomplish much more.

So what have you learned from 2009 that you will become better at in 2010?

One thing you do here alot about is people quitting to soon on there goals due to short term thinking.

Most people have the mentality that if something doesnt happen in 1-2 months its not going to work. This is why in the month of January the gyms of the world are all filled with what I like to call false hope. Many people in the gym right now are expecting quick results and when February or March rolls around and they dont have the perfect physique that they are looking for, they Quit.

I read a story by Zig Ziglar of the Chinese bamboo tree.

“The process goes like this: You take a little seed, plant it, water it, and fertilize it for a whole year, and nothing happens. The second year you water it and fertilize it, and nothing happens. The third year you water it and fertilize it, and nothing happens. How discouraging this becomes! The fifth year you continue to water and fertilize the seed and then—take note. Sometime during the fifth year, the Chinese bamboo tree sprouts and grows NINETY FEET IN SIX WEEKS!

Life is much akin to the growing process of the Chinese bamboo tree. It is often discouraging. We seemingly do things right, and nothing happens. But for those who do things right and are not discouraged and are persistent things will happen. Finally we begin to receive the rewards.”

Many people may ask why does it take so long for the bamboo to grow. The answer is simple, it is growing!

Although the bamboo tree may not appear to be growing in the first few seasons, the main thing it is doing is building its foundation, the roots. Without the roots, the tree would not be stable enough to withstand the heavy winds in the fall.

Have you built your foundation in your life or business?

Or, did you quit just before your tree of life is about to peak from the surface?

Here is the best Question I heard to ask yourself to reach the Success you are looking for.

“Who is the person I would like to become?

A followup question is…

How would the person I would like to be, do what I’m about to do?

The only thing left now is ACTION be like Nike and JUST DO!

Tell yourself I WILL UNTIL!

Thank you for spending time and reading my thoughts. I hope this help you create the best year you have ever had.

May your life Grin in 2010!

Discipline Yourself For Ultimate Success

You have a choice, either you can discipline yourself or someone else will.

To Do or Not To Do…That is the
Question! Thought I’d give you a lil Shakespeare.

Discipline is nothing more than the process of focusing on any chosen activity without interruption until that activity is complete.

In the dictionary it reads discipline is an Action word. Its not something you think about doing its like Nike ” Just Do!”

The dictionary also states that discipline is about training yourself  to act in accordance with rules; drill: military discipline.  If you know someone or you yourself are in the military, you know the one skill you will learn is discipline.

Discipline is also an activity, exercise, or a regimen that develops or improves a skill; according to the dictionary. Disciplining yourself to do the necessary activity over and over consistently will give you the results you are looking for.

Discipline is the ability to stay focused on your chosen action path without detour, distraction, or interruption. It is having complete Laser focus like a Rhino. Did you know Rhino’s charge with there eyes closed? Rhinos will not stop until they hit there target. Do you have this type of discipline working for you?

This is the type of discipline you need to have in your MLM business. Discipline allows you to reach heights in your business you can only imagine.

Ask yourself what one activity that if I disciplined myself to doing everyday, will bring me the biggest results.

Let me in this with a quote, “Half of life is luck; the other half is discipline – and thats the important half, for without discipline you wouldnt know what to do with luck. -Carl Zuckmeyer

The Truth About Marketing Offline V.S Online Revealed!

Bottom line don’t be fooled by someone who says anyone don’t work, both work many leaders have proven it. I know this is not what you wanted to hear but here is what makes them work, your Skill set. What skills do you have right now in either of these marketing techniques?

Increasing your self worth in this economy right now, is what makes or breaks whether you will have true success in any business.

Everyone is talking about how important this is more now than ever before. This is the best time to get trained on a skill especially if you don’t have one already. Schools, businesses, and jobs of America are stressing the importance of increasing your skill set.

Are you good at recruiting people to your business? If not than I suggest you increase this skill as soon as NOW! This is the one skill you will need to possess to create true time freedom in your life. Like Paul J. Getty says, “I rather have 1% of 100 peoples effort than 100% of my own”  This skill will allow you to spend time with your loved ones and still make money.

Here are a few resources of leaders who have build organizations of 10,000 plus distributors, by mastering this one skill. Dani Johnson , Todd Falcone , Jeffery Combs just to name a few.

How good are you at communicating with your prospects?

This is the number 1 skill that will allow you to move mountains in life. In order for any business or any person to flourish to heights you can only imagine, this skill MUST be mastered. Yet it is one of the must undeveloped skills of today.

Most people don’t recognize that if they will learn this skill it will increase there income 10 fold. It doesn’t matter what company or job your with, increase your communication skills and you will be successful. Here’s another resource that I feel is one of the best on the subject of communication skills and asking the right questions. Jeffery Combs, Dani Johnson and Doug Fireball.

Now with those key skills under your belt you will be dangers in your business. And you thought it was the economy that was the reason why your business is not successful? NOPE! Its YOU!

Let’s talk about some online skills.

How good are you at the following:
Social Media Marketing, Content Marketing, Video Marketing, PPC, Keyword Research, List Building and some new offline techniques.

Online marketing can be confusing with all the different ways to generate income online. The reason why people go online in network marketing is to generate there own Leads. Not to mention to have prospects chasing you instead of you chasing them for a change.

The key is to FOCUS on ONE technique until you master it. Once you decide on the technique you want to master online then find someone to follow, who have mastered that skill and don’t stop until you are generating at least 10 leads everyday.

Now the only resource I have come across that will provide you with all the neccessary training you need, in your specific online marketing. Not just someone talking to you but step by step videos showing you exactly what to do. Also you are connected with some of the top leaders in this industry to help you along the way.

I hope this post has served you well and allows you to be more productive if your marketing your business online or Offline.

What Everbody Ought To Know About The Importance Of Duplication

What are you duplicating throughout your organization? Is it helping you build a massive organization or hurting you?

Let’s start this article by sharing with you what the dictionary definition of duplication is: To make an exact copy of an original.

Are you promoting that through your organization? If you are then you have a producing organization that’s making you hundreds of thousands of dollars every month.

Duplication is where the rubber meets the road for creating real and lasting success.

Its important to know that duplication can either hurt you or help you. If your system is only good for people who have a large center of influence, like most network marketing leaders system are setup, making it completely one-sided. Mainly for people with a business-minded contact list, this is a problem.

What I mean by this is most companies want you to make a list of your family and friends. What if you don’t have many contacts of friends and family on your list? After you talk to those people then what? And if their not business-minded makes that list not worth anything.

The system you use most duplicate down to the newest person. And it has to be “So Simple A Cave Man Can Do It” like the Gieco commercials. LOL! (Funny Stuff!)

With the proper system set in place you will enjoy the power of duplication like the leaders who have built and organization of 10,000 people or more.

Here’s a challenge for you so you can see the power of duplication.

If you had a choice to either take $10,000 a day for the next 30 days or the choice to get paid a single penny everday for 30 days what would you choose?

Day Amount
1 .01
2 .02
3 .04
4 .08
5 .16
6 .32
7 .64
8 1.28
9 2.56
10 5.12
11 10.24
12 20.48
13 40.96
14 81.92
15 163.84

Halfway there. Do you think it was a good choice to take the penny doubled every day? Sure doesn’t look like it’s adding up very fast. Let’s get back to work!

Day Amount
16 327.68
17 655.36
18 1,310.72
19 2,621.44
20 5,242.88
21 10,485.76
22 20,971.52
23 41,943.04
24 83,886.08
25 167,772.16
26 335,544.32
27 671,088.64
28 1,342,177.28
29 2,684,354.56
30 5,368,709.12

At the end of 30 days, if you had chosen $10,000 a day you would have $300,000. If you had
chosen the doubling penny. . . you would have more than. . . TEN MILLION DOLLARS!

$5,368,709.12 x 2 =$10,737,418.24…To Be Exact!

On the last day alone , you would have been paid more than Five Million Dollars!
This is the power of COMPOUNDING. In the beginning, when you double a small number,
the result is still a small number. But as you continue doubling, the number gets bigger and bigger and
bigger, and eventually, you achieve MASSIVE GROWTH in a SHORT PERIOD OF TIME.
Look at the chart above. If you took $10,000 a day, by the 24th day, you would have a total of
$240,000. With the doubling penny, your total would have been only $167,772.16. But look at the
LAST FIVE DAYS of the month. With the doubling penny, in those last five days, your DAILY
income grows from $167,772.16 to $5,368,708.80! It’s no wonder that Albert Einstein described
compound interest as, “The greatest mathematical discovery of all time.”

In the beginning it may be hard to see the potential of how large your organization can become. But just like the penny over time you will reap the rewards.

The key to duplication in your network marketing business is; Use the proven principles of success and teach the same thing to other people. Then they do the same with others, and the others do the same too.

I’m sure you’ve heard leaders say your team will do what you do not what you say. Are you doing what you want your team to do? Its always good to ask yourself, If my team did what I did today how much money would I have made?

If your not happy with the answer GET MOVING!

Hopefully this series of blog post have been of value to you and make you aware of the 4 Major Problems Network Marketers Face.

Is The Way You Think About Money Keeping You From It?

Are you running out of money like most distributors before they get into profit in their network marketing business?

Typically it takes months if not years to generate a significant residual income in most network marketing companies.  That’s why leaders say stay on your job to keep income coming into your business. There’s no need to put unnecessary stress on you any more than what you are already dealing with in your life.

Money has become a cornerstone to everyday life now. Just like Zig Ziglar says, money is not important but it ranks up there with Oxygen! Whats most important is what you can do with the money. Lifestyle, trips, houses living a better life for your family and loved ones.

Its a mindset you must have I believe whether or not you will have the success you are looking for.

Do you believe that you deserve to have more than enough money?

Do you believe you deserve the life style Top Leaders are having in this industry?
Are you growing so your money can grow? Are you aware that your income can grow only to the extent you do! So if you don’t improve then your financial situation will not improve.

As you know:
Thoughts lead to Feelings.
Feelings lead to Actions.
Actions lead to Results.

Lack of Money is the third Problem in this series of Problems Network Marketers Face.

Have You Ever Wondered If Your Network Marketing Company Is Secretly Keeping The Real Training From You?

I’m sure we all have had this thought in our mind at one point in our business.

The truth of the matter is Its not whether your company is giving the top leaders the exclusive training but whether or not the training your getting is appropriate for today’s marketing. Many companies are stuck in the old school way of building a business. Talk to your friends and family, put out flyers, go to meetings, chase prospects.

I guarantee you you wouldn’t see top leaders out prospecting everyone they come in contact with while their out. Yet they tell you they talk to 10 people a day but never tell you how to get in contact with those 10 people or where they come from. Its because many leaders have a great center of influence and they attract people to them on a daily basis.

Getting the proper training is vital to your success in networking marketing.  Many leaders teach from the aspect that you have money to invest in. Buying company CD’s, spending $10 every week at a meeting but yet you have not made a dime.

We all need techniques to market affectively on any budget. Marketing yourself is the key ingredients needed when starting an network marketing business, focused training that will build on your strengths. Do you know what skills you have? What is the one thing that your better than anyone else in?

I feel that skills are the much need training people are missing today. We all have a God given talent but never tap into it. With all the different methods of marketing out there if you focus on your core strength you will have Success In Abundance.

The internet has made this so simple a cave man can do it! LOL!

What are you good at?

Are you good at connecting with people? Then Face Book or other social networking sites may be a good marketing tool for you. Are you good with Writing? Then Content/Article Marketing, Copywriting, Ezines/Solo Ads, Blogging, Free Classified Ads are all good marketing techniques for you. Are you passionate about teaching others? Video Marketing will be good for you to excercise this skill all you have to do is focus on what you want to teach and start sharing.

There are many ways to build a successful business not just making a list, putting out fliers, attending meetings all though meetings keep you motivated and gives you that refreshing you need in your business. With the internet it has made it easier to meet your mastermind group online with GoToWebinar where you can bring the meeting to you in the comfort of your own home,  I mean this is called a home-based business for a reason.

Do you have a M.A.P? (Massive Action Plan)… Do you have the necessary training you need to be successful in this industry? Focus on your strengths and use that marketing technique to propel your business to heights you have never seen before.

Are you being trained properly? There’s a saying if you had 3 hours to chop down a tree you should spend 2 hours sharpening your axe and 1 hour chopping down the tree. What are you doing to shapen your axe?

Now you can spend countless hours online looking up this training or you can have it all in one place. Training is an important part in this industry but are you getting that training from someone who has done it using this years marketing techniques? If you would like a system that provides you with the training and skills you need and put together by top leaders who have built massive organizations then I advise you to click here NOW=> Give Me The Free Training I Need For Success In Network Marketing.
