~~VITLE BIT THE DUST~~

UPDATE!  UPDATE!!  UPDATE!!

It has been a while since I posted on this site and I need to update all the information.

I had mentioned in one of my previous posts that I had finally found a network marketing company that I knew would work for me.  I gave it my all for 9 months and went to the annual convention to help boost my excitement and set more goals.  I was doing okay with it, building my team and getting to know people.

I developed a tremendous team family through FaceBook which was our way of supporting each other and helping everyone to build the business.  It was going very well and things were looking up.

August came and I was excited about going to the convention.  I sacrificed to get the money together to go because I knew it would help me for the future.

I got there and met so many of my FaceBook friends from all over the country.  It was a joy to be able to meet them and socialize with them.  We were told the first night that there would be a big announcement during the meeting the next day.  We waited with great anticipation.

The next day, our CEO got up and announced that Vitel had merged with and new company called Shopping Sherlock!  WOW!  We could not believe it and was wondering how this would affect all of the team members, those that had struggled so hard to make it and those who were just getting started.
The top leaders met later with the CEO of Shopping Sherlock and were told that all of us would be grandfathered in and that tremendous things wold take place as a result of it.

First, fear and anticipation set in as to what would happen.  My husband already was skeptical of my network marketing ventures because I never really made it in anything and he was leery of  this type of business anyway.  Now what would he think when I came home with this news!

Our leaders came back with some very reassuring news and we felt that this would really become a blessing to all of us.  By the time I got back home and explained it all to my husband (who reluctantly accepted it), I was ready to embark on this new learning curve and adventure.

My commitment to Vitel was one year +.  In other-words, I would not back out after I had given it my all and stayed with it for at least a year or more.  We were given the assurance that by being grandfathered in would really set us up in a very favored position.  This all sounded so good.

Reality set in as time went on.  The comp plan was a binary hybrid and not a unilevel which we had with Vitel.  After all the transitions were done, those of us who had only a few members on our team, had to get at least 2 more new people in order to take full advantage of the commissions coming from the weaker leg.  Now this is not to say it is a bad comp plan; in fact it is a very good plan and will make people a lot of money as long as they sponsor a minimum of 2 people.
My problem has always been the sponsoring of people.  I just am not a good sales person.  I do all of the things that the team tells me, but for some reason, I have problems bringing people aboard.  I don't blame anyone but myself.  Somewhere I seem to be missing a link and in time that will come.

It has now been 7 months since Shopping Sherlock has been active in my life.  I haven't given up, but I'm not making any money, just paying the monthly small fee so I can build up my banked volume (which by the way you never lose unless you stop paying the monthly fee.  I have nearly $3,000 in there right now and as soon as 2 people join my team, it will be unlocked.  So I look at it like this,  I am building a savings account that I will be able to tap into in the future.

So that is what is happening!  Oh!!  Did I tell you that all we do is give away FREE S2 savers?  If you are interested  JUST CLICK HERE

DOES YOUR BOSS PAY YOUR HOUSEHOLD BILLS?

 DOES YOUR BOSS PAY YOUR HOUSEHOLD BILLS?

Does your job (boss) pay you a salary PLUS give you extra to pay your household bills. Does he/she offer to pay your cell phone bill, cable/satellite bill, your energy bill and your internet bill on top of your salary? Will he give you a $1,000 every time you bring in 3 new people in one week? And will he give you a $750 victory bonus every month you qualify with $2,500 customer volume?

Maybe it's time you thought about getting job security for yourself rather than for your boss! Do you really want to work 40 or 50 years just so you can collect that measly social security check and maybe that pension that will only just get you by?

We are looking for serious partners who want to elevate their standing in life. Why work for someone else to make them wealthy when you can work for yourself and become wealthy for YOU! and your family.

Vitel is a fast growing direct marketing sales company with thousands of partners each helping the other to become wealthy. We are only 2 years old and we provide products and services that people use every day. Services like Verizon, Sprint, T-Mobile, Cricket, Page Plus, Boost Mobile and more. Cable and satellite services, cell phones and cell phone plans. We offer total family protection services like legal counsel, tax consultation, road side assistance, 24-hour on call medical advise, entertainment discount tickets, shopping discount outlets, identity theft protection and so much more in one all-inclusive package.

Want more proof? Just go to YouTube and type in Vitel and Vitel Wireless and view the countless testimonials and trainings on Vitel. These are real people doing a real business right from home.

You can do this part time or full time. But let me caution you! This is NOT a get rich quick scheme. AND it is NOT one of those falsely advertised businesses that make you think you are going to just get in and let someone else do all the work while you sit back and collect that big fat check! NO you will have to put in time and effort to succeed. You will need to be teachable and trainable. You will need to learn how to duplicate what your partners are doing if you want to succeed.

You cannot be over-qualified or under-qualified. All you need is a willingness to succeed in life and a desire to change your circumstances.

I think you get the picture now. Are your ready?

Financial Freedom Is Just 5 Years Away

Financial Freedom is Just 5 Years Away

"Of all the entrepreneurial opportunities available today, one of the most important is direct selling, also called network marketing." - Paul Zane Pilzer, Nobel Prize Winning Economist and Author

Your boss does not want you reading this.

The truth is, if you truly took this message to heart, you could fire your boss. Not immediately, but it would happen.

Like most people you probably expect to retire one day, maybe in a few years, maybe in a few decades, but you hope to be able to one day have the retirement income coming in reliably every month as you finally relax and enjoy it.

But something is very wrong with this picture. You'll be elderly by then! You'll have the free time, but who wants free time when they're 65?

What your boss doesn't want you to know is that your financial freedom is less than 5 years away. You can make it without a boss. It's more fun too. The traditional plan for an employee is to work for 40+ years, giving away most of their life to completing someone else's tasks, then relaxing when you're too old to live the life you dreamed of.

For Network Marketers the plan looks a little different. Set up a business in your spare time that will pay you even when you stop working... then stop working!

Just imagine... where would you be now if you had read this message 5 years ago?

A network marketing business gives you the freedom most people never even glimpse. As your business grows (and you're helped every step of the way by other people just like you) your income increases. This is income on top of your regular job income, because you don't have to quit your job to do this. Most network marketers won't quit their jobs until their business-income overtakes their job-income. Then they fire their boss, walk out, and never look back.

If it takes you 5 years - heck, even 10 years - to eliminate the need for a job, what would you do with your time? Most people would travel more, get serious about their hobbies, volunteer their time to the charities they're passionate about, learn new skills, visit friends and family...

And yet these same people, with their same wishes, spend their time working for a boss, worrying if they'll get fired, arriving home late, then flopping down in front of the TV in sheer exhaustion.

Be different. Make your plan. It's 5 years away.

THE MAGIC OF BELIEVING

I am a big dreamer.  All of my life, I've believed that I could do whatever I chose to do.  But it seemed like the circumstances surrounding my life deterred my dreams from becoming reality.

In high school my dream was to become a lawyer.  I knew it would take hard work and dedication for me to succeed.  I excelled in my grades and planned for my college.  But at 17, I met and fell in love with the man I am married to today (46 years at this writing).  He swept me off my feet and my dreams flew out the window.  I like to blame it on my dysfunctional family upbringing because I wanted out from that way of life so bad.

As I look back on it, I used that excuse to not follow through, so I lost my belief and dream.  I had children right away and focused on raising them and helping my husband with the management of our business.  You see, I also excelled in business management during my high school years with a minor in accounting practices.

So who do I have to blame - ME!!

Over the years I have succeeded but have never been able to go over the top.  My dreams are still there.  My goals are still there.  But the success of reaching the top has eluded me.  So I ask myself, "What am I doing wrong that keeps me from achieving my dreams?"  I've tried for years and years to figure it out.  I've done what "They've" told me to do; read positive books and listen to motivational videos and tapes.  Be around positive people and be positive myself.  Check my attitude.  Help others to achieve their goals. Duplicate the system, etc., etc., etc.

Yet, it still eludes me.

So what am I doing wrong!

The first thing you need to tell yourself is to keep going, keep trying and keep believing.  I found out that many a great achiever has gone through failure after failure before reaching the success ladder.   Many fail trying one thing after another, but eventually hit on the right formula.  This is what will happen as long as you DON"T QUIT!  Never give up!

To hear my story listen to this video I posted on YouTube:  Click here 

Even though I have certain disabilities that would hold some people back, I choose not to allow it to hold me back.  I still dream BIG!  And I will WIN BIG!

If you are interested in finding out more about how I am achieving my dreams right now, just go to my website at:  Money Forever Home

The training, support and family atmosphere is next to none.  We have all kinds of directives that help us to reach our dreams.  This is "THE MAGIC OF BELIEVING".  Unless we help others to achieve their dreams, then we cannot reach our dreams.

The Mîllion Dollar Mindset

Do You Have What It Takes To Become A Millionaire?

Quantum Prosperity: 

A quantum jump is a sudden and spectacular advance.  It is a major breakthrough.  Many people are looking for a giant leap into the realm of prosperity.  They sometimes are not satisfied with just small bits and pieces of prosperity coming their way.

There is nothing wrong with having financial abundance.  There is nothing wrong with money itself.  It is a means to living in this society for all the goods and services that are needed or wanted.

Quantum prosperity requires a big change in your thought processes, a leap in your conscience that produces a totally different result.

People who get into trouble financially usually worry, become fearful and get depressed.  This seems to be a normal reaction to a common occurrence within our society today.  It is this mental depression that holds them in bondage.  A famous quote says, "You are what you think!"  If you are worried, depressed, fearful in your mind, then you show it and live it in you life.  People see it and the results are just as you think them to be.

If you want to have a Millionaire Mindset, then you must think like a millionaire.  So how do you do that?  

The first step is to make God the center of everything you say, think, feel, and do. This action will not only give your mind an upward and forward look but it will raise your mental level. As you do this, invite all that God is to move into your whole being and out into your life and affairs. God, in His infinite Wisdom, knows how to prosper you and it is His pleasure to do so. – Adapted from: You, Too, Can Be Prosperous – Robert A. Russell

We need to speak and think prosperity affirmations daily.  Write them down and say them out load at least 3 times per day.  Hang them where you can see them daily such as on your refrigerator or your office wall.  This process helps our mind to develop into a millionaire mindset.  The next thing you know is you are speaking these affirmations to people around you.  Your vibrant energy is conducive to drawing others who think or do the same thing as you.

Listen and mediate on positive energy cd's or tapes.  YouTube is an excellent place to get meditational energy by listening to them.

Here is what happened to me just this past week.  I met with a friend who needed my help in how to publish a book.  I gave him the information he needed.  He in turn gave me $100 as a love gift just for this information.  The next Sunday as I was leaving church, a lady came to me and drew me aside.  She said that the Lord had spoken to her to bless me and she wrote a check out for $50.  These were 2 unexpected gifts of money and they were welcomed and needed.  It may not seem like much, but when you apply the principles of prosperity and the law of attraction through meditation and positive energy, you will see results.

Today as I was going to a tax office for some advice, a person whom I had parked next to saw my business sign on the side of my car.  She asked what it was all about.  I told her and invited her to a local home meeting where she could meet the RVP who would be conducting the business meeting tonight.  I asked her if she would like to attend and she agreed quickly.  Now, I will be positively thinking that she will become one of my business partners.  You see, I had been meditating on bringing someone to the meeting for tonight and viola - there she was.  It wasn't just coincidence - it was my God-like conscience that drew her to me.

Here are some prosperity affirmations that you can use every day:

I Attract Mega Wealth To Myself.
Financial Independence.
I Am Wealthy
I See My Self Abundantly Prosperous.
I Have The Midas Touch.
Millionaire Mindset.
I Will To Myself A Continuous Flow Of Money.
My Supply Is Over Flowing.
Avalanche Of Prosperity Flowing To Me
In Right And Perfect Ways.
Gold Dust Is All Around Me.
Wealth Consciousness.
Easily Effortlessly And Naturally.
Abundance Is Mine By Divine Right.
Attracting Wealth Is Easy For Me.
I Am A Open Channel For Great Wealth.

Here are some SEED Money Testimonies:

 

Seed Money brings more than tenfold! - I have been taken to breakfast six times this week, was given a theatre ticket, and I received a check for $791.00. This was in addition to a $200.00 check I had received earlier in the month. My earnings for the past month have been super! These are all significant and yet they are far more than ten times the money I planted as seed. When I give tips, or give money for whatever purpose, person or need and stake my claim for tenfold return, it comes to me multiplied! Money has become my friend. Here is my grateful tithe! – L. P., California 

Bills paid because of Seed Money Practice! - Thank you for the great article on Seed Money! I have started to have an overflowing abundance of good things in my life. I am receiving my tenfold return. I’ve been planting money daily and it is amazing how more money has been coming to me. I was always behind in my bills but now I am caught up and even paying some bills ahead of time! Thanks again. Seed Money opened my eyes! – R. G., California

Everyone have a blessed day.

Vitel Freedom Club

Vitel launched nationwide in 2010.  The last couple of years has seen profound growth, struggles and growing pains.  What company doesn't if it is going to succeed.  It is based out of Houston, TX.  The founders have over 55 years of combined business experience.  It is solid based and is positioned in multiple industries that people use and need every day.

There are two major aspects to the business; CUSTOMERS and BUSINESS PARTNERS.

Each area is solid and encompasses it's own learning curve.  Today, I want to focus on "The Freedom Club Challenge".

 Take a look at the image above.  This is how it works.  When you get and maintain $300 in customer volume, you will be eligible to get your choice of one household bill paid or your membership fee.  The bills that Vitel will pay are cell phone, internet, cable/satellite, energy or membership.  Each time you gain another $300 in volume will earn you another bill to be paid by Vitel.  Vitel will reimburse  your actual bill amount up to the maximum amount allowed.

Now look at this next image:

After you have conquered the first five volume requirements and are getting your household bills paid now you are qualified to earn the Victory Bonus of $750 every month.  You are now saving $15,300 year by getting $1275 month.   Do the math $1275 X 12 = $15,300!  That is HUGE!!

Now many companies that people get involved with will give you a car bonus.  And that's the only thing you can get.  Now look at this scenario: Suppose you made it in your company to qualify for the car bonus.  You go to the car dealer, set down and fill out the papers.  Then they say they have to do a credit check to qualify you.  OOPS!  You know your credit isn't very good and WHAMOOO - they turn you down.  Wait a minute.  You thought your company was going to get you the car - Nope - They only send you to the dealership.  They'll make the payment if you can get the car.

Well, with Vitel, you can use the $750 any way you want. Maybe you want to make your house payment or pay other bills.  AND if you are still working at your job (not ready to quit yet and go full time with Vitel), you now have all that money freed up that you would have had to pay from your paycheck!

That's what Vitel can do for you when you join.

And this is only the beginning.  My next post will tell you how you can make money real fast with Vitel.  But if you want the information sooner, just:

MY STORY

I started out a few years back thinking what I could do to overcome my disabilities that now keep me from gainful employment.  The computer had come into existence and technology is increasing rapidly.  Since I am near retirement age I have not had the schooling that many of the younger generation has had.  I grew up counting beads on a slide bar to learn math.

My first encounter with personal computers was when I worked in a bank back in the late 80's.  So I've had a lot of catching up to do.  I'm a great grandmother now but I still long to achieve my dream of becoming a millionaire.

My husband and I have worked hard all our lives while bringing up three children.  It was labor intensive work and we were self employed.  I did the business management as well as contributed to the businesses themselves.  However, it never did afford us anything more than a satisfactory living without the means to save any money or have any insurance for our family.

I became disabled and had to go on disability when I turned 60.  Now social security disability doesn't cover a whole lot.  My husband, now retired doesn't receive much in social security and still has to go out and work in order to make ends meet.

When I discovered computers and the internet, I was determined to find a way to earn money from home.  The first thing I found was a course on how to blog and let myself be known.  Voila!! This blog page.

I searched and I searched for the perfect internet marketing business.  I found many -- some good and some not so good.  I let my blog sort of go cold and haven't posted anything to it since January 2012.  However, when I came back to take a look, I couldn't believe that it had over 8,900+ views.  It was still working through Google and wherever else in SEO engines.  (Personally, I don't even know).

I got encouraged by a new FaceBook friend to renew my commitment to continue blogging.  As a result, this is my first post in over a year.  But I'm back and I do hope you enjoy this post and others that I will be writing.

You see, during all that time of searching for the PERFECT network marketing business, I have finally found the ultimate one.  Now I'm not going to go into it in this post, but the next one will be all about Vitel Wireless.

Use AutoResponder Email Marketing To Convert Visitors In To Sales

You work hard to get visitors to your web site.

And for good reason. Visitors are the lifeblood of your business. No visitors means no sales. Everyone knows that.

So we work on things like:

Writing and Submitting Articles
Press Releases
Classified Advertising
Building backlinks
Creating a blog
Emailing our friends
Social Networking Sites:
* Twitter
* Facebook
* Myspace
* Digg
Participating in Discussion Forums
Buying Banner Ads
Pay Per Click (PPC) Advertising
Search Engine Optimization
And more ....

And then visitors come.

Don't get too excited. Most visitors don't buy the first time they visit a web site. They are looking for information, comparing prices, checking for credibility, looking for testimonials, etc...

So how do you get those visitors to come back?

Add an autoresponder subscription form to your web site. Some people refer to these forms as lead capture forms. The purpose is simple: To capture your visitors' information so you can follow up with them.

Why is this important?

Remember that visitors hardly ever (almost never) purchase when they first visit a web site. Research suggests that prospects need to be exposed to your offer an average of 7 times before they will make a decision to purchase from you.

This is why it is critical that you add lead capture forms to your web site so that you can gather information from your visitors.

This is where your email marketing begins. You can now follow up with those prospects over and over again, providing valuable and relevant information that helps you:

1) Build credibility.
2) Increase exposure.
3) Generate repeat visitors.
4) Close more sales.

The big question is usually:

How Do I Get Them To Fill Out The Form?

It can be as simple as adding a line above the form that says:

Join Our Mailing List and Receive Important Updates

or you could use a bribe. Yep ... free information is still something people will usually give you a name and email address for if it is information they are interested in receiving.

In my case, as I am presenting information on AutoResponders to my visitors, my lead capture form says:

Free Report: How To Boost Sales With AutoResponders.

And every day, people fill out that form.

They found my site online either on an ad somewhere, a banner they clicked on, a search engine result they liked, an article they read, etc... I do a lot of advertising (most of it absolutely free). And when people come to my site, I know they are interested in how autoresponders can help them boost their sales.

So I offer them a free report on how autoresponders can help them do just that.

When they request my information, they get informative tips and suggestions on how they can use autoresponders and email marketing. I give a few specific steps, show them how they might create their own follow-up messages, give some of my own insights, share a few testimonials, etc...

And each letter closes by presenting them with my offer: A Free 30 Day Trial of the TrafficWave.net AutoResponder system.

Does it work?

Every single day.

Every single day, I get more subscribers (people requesting my information).
And every single day, I get more customers (people that decide to try my AutoResponder system).

If you're not adding autoresponder subscription forms (lead capture forms) to your own web sites and blogs, you are missing out on a LOT of potential sales!

Build Your Empire in 5 Hours a Week

Staying on the theme of time management and knowing it’s relevant because I’ve heard it over and over from clients all week and knowing that many of us are busier than we want to be or feel we can sometimes manage….

You’ve heard the expression you teach what you need to learn?

Well, did I ever find myself doing that this past month. I’m personally coaching 11 people in our Power Prospectors course and I needed to get everyone scheduled and organized and into my calendar around the rest of my business activities (I’m still a writer for hire and have a number of business clients I write for with deadlines and a whole other calendar) and the rest of my life.

I didn’t do the best job – at first. I know there are people reading this who are likely chuckling right now. Two weeks ago I woke up in the middle of the night panicked because I realized I had double booked people and had probably booked some people during a prior commitment.

I felt completely unglued and overwhelmed. The next morning I went back to our Calendar Training. I worked with a coach throughout 2010 to grow my business and we spent A LOT of time on time management. I needed to see where I had fallen down and what I needed to do to put it back together.

Are You Distracted?

I think part of what plagues us with time management is that we have a lot to do and so much vying for our attention and we’re flat-out distracted. Turns out we spend more time thinking about some things than they actually take to do. Sound familiar?

It takes some time to get your ‘time together’ but is it SO worth it. First, in order to properly manage your time, you need to know what you’ve got to do and how long it takes to do each thing. Sounds simple, but you have to track ALL your activities for a week or so. The good news is you’ll find that you actually have to time do everything. That means you can spend less time obsessing about what you’re not doing, or should be doing and then feeling disorganized and wake up in the middle of the night from a nightmare about time, like I did – literally.

5 Hours to Build an Empire

For example, we know that the money in network marketing comes from team building. Granted, some comes from product sales, but to take advantage of the leverage MLM offers, team building is the answer. To build a team, you have to share information about your business with other people. It’s the KEY activity that makes you money and builds solid income over time.

How long does it take to contact people and share your business concept with them? Done correctly, it should take about 5-6 minutes per initial phone call. So, that means you can probably make about 6-8 of those in an hour if you factor in taking notes, sending emails and booking what you’ve said, they’ve said and done the job properly. Let’s say you can make 7 calls in an hour. Then, in 5 hours each week you could introduce 35 new people to your business, or 140 people each month.

And, best of all, if you KNOW that and you commit that time to your business every week, you could build an empire over the course of 2-3 years. Truly. You’d be contacting 1680 people a year. It’s what top earners do.

If you do that for all the activities in your business, then you can set up Store Hours, stick to them, achieve your goals AND feel sane. You can do that and have time ‘booked’ for relaxing and doing the other things that interest you WITHOUT what you’re NOT doing hanging over you, ruining that time and keeping you OUT of the present moment. Make sense? I hope so.

We can coach you personally on how to get this done, be more effective and get real results and you can also refer to our Store Hours Training and our Calendar Training – which was exactly what I did early in the month so I could breath later in the month and feel like I had it handled. And it goes to prove that learning is an ongoing experience……I know how to do it, I just wasn’t practicing what I know and teach. Crazy? Maybe. I think it’s how we humans are wired. Commitment to excellence sometimes means disciplining yourself to do what you know how to do.

Give it some thought and then see if you apply this simple concept to your business if it doesn’t bring you a sense of mental calm and make you more money.

Do You Realize The Power Of One? by Brian Rooney

Do You Realize The Power Of One?

When a new member becomes an Affiliate, they are at least initially intrigued by the amount of money available via our Affiliate plan.

It doesn't take long to see that with just a bit of effort, a very sizable income is possible to those that are ready to really dig in and get to work.

The challenge is that many people seem to give in to the 30 day curse.

This is what happens when someone buys into the idea of making a huge income within 30 days or the opportunity just "isn't working". These folks typically end up just bouncing from one "opportunity" to the next looking for that magic lottery ticket instead of actually focusing on building a solid long-term successful business.

Amazingly... they spend years getting themselves into a financial predicament and then expect to simply enroll, hang out for 30 days, and watch their financial picture change overnight.

If you fit that particular profile, you are going to be sorely disappointed but I'd rather just let you know right up front. The TrafficWave.net Affiliate Plan rewards diligence and solid business approach. This is not a lottery system or a "sign up and get rich" system. By introducing other small business and home-based business operators to our AutoResponder system, you can build a very lucrative income for yourself.

Now, we do have people that join us and seem to really take off in a big way. Most of the time, these are people that already had a list of their own from previous marketing ventures and they are able to "kick start" their business by tapping in to those lists. This is great and we love to see that sort of success.

But the reality is that even the most basic beginner can make
a tremendous income with this system if they do a few things consistently:

1) Realize from the very beginning that this is an actual business and is going to require some time and effort on your part.

2) Take at least a part-time approach instead of a spare time approach. If you focus and dedicate 15 to 30 minutes a day, you can at least begin learning this system and start building your income. But you have to truly set that time aside. Wake up 30 minutes earlier.... stay up 30 minutes later... skip a sitcom episode on TV. The bottom line is that if you truly want to succeed, you will. But you have to decide and commit to your own success.

3) Set goals based on reality... not pipe dreams and hype. Would we all like to some how magically join that "right" opportunity and watch our bank accounts spill over the top with new deposits? Sure. I'd take that money and have a great time with it.

But here is the reality: Those "overnight success stories" we all are so fond of reading about usually take years to develop. What we just about never hear about is the story where today's millionaire was close to bankruptcy just a couple of years ago. We don't read about the number of nights they just didn't go to sleep but worked through the night on various ideas, opportunities, business plans, etc....

Instead, once someone does realize the fruit of their efforts and achieves some level of success, the media jump all over it and make it sound like this guy was just sitting around one day and POOF! A great idea knocked him out of his chair and he was rich the next day.

Believe me. It didn't happen that way.

You joined us because you saw the possibilities for yourself. You looked at the system and said, "You know... this really makes sense. I bet I can do this."

And at that moment you caught the vision. So let's take a moment or two to find out how you can measure our progress and achieve your goals.

I have put together some numbers based on something that is very simple and very powerful. I call it:

The Power Of One:

This concept is based on you getting just one new referral each month and teaching that referral to do the same thing.

Understand that this will not cause you to become wealthy overnight. In fact, for the first few months, it may seem like not much is happening at all. But if you stick to the plan, the results can absolutely amaze you.

Here's how the numbers play out over 12 months:

In your first month, you are learning the system. You are reading the training articles and figuring out how things work. By following the training and promoting your site, you are able to refer 1 new Affiliate.

You work with them, showing them how and where to find the training articles, how to promote, etc... and they refer 1 new Affiliate.

You now have 2 Affiliates in your organization and you have earned a Fast Track Bonus. Depending on what you spent for advertising, leads, etc... you probably didn't even break even.

This is where the whiners begin to say things like, "I am spending more money than I'm making. This doesn't work."

And they quit.

But not you. You know that success is a matter of focusing on and working toward your goal of financial independence. You know that if you could make just a few hundred extra dollars per month, your family's situation would change in a big way. So you continue pressing toward your goals.

In Month 2, you continue working with and supporting your 2 other Affiliates. You are showing them how to refer others and it is working. They each get a new Affiliate. You refer a new Affiliate yourself.

You now have a total of 5 Affiliates and you have earned another Fast Track along with a small Regular Commission check.

In Month 3, you continue this same process. You show each of your Affiliates how to personally refer 1 new Affiliate and you refer another one yourself.

That's another Fast Track Bonus and your Regular Commissions are going up. You're not exactly rolling in the big bucks yet but you are seeing progress.

In the meantime, Affiliates that have given up are sending you ads about how they have found the latest and greatest thing and you really should join them. This is probably their fourth or fifth "great deal" in the past 3 months.

You shake your head, invite them to come back and work with your team and then focus on building your business.

In Month 4, you continue this process. By now, you are earning enough in Regular Commissions that you are more than covering the monthly subscription fee for your account.

You continue to receive Fast Track Bonuses because you are referring at least one new Affiliate. Your Regular Commissions are going up because your organization is doing the same thing. Your team is working together and things are starting to pick up.

In Month 5, this keeps going and because you are personally referring new Affiliates, you are now qualified for the 25% Leadership Bonus. You may even be seeing some profits now.

In Month 6, you are starting to see things build up some solid momentum. Your Regular commissions took a nice jump and your Leadership Bonus is building up quite nicely.

By Month 7, you are really glad you stuck with the system. Your team is working together very well. Your organization and your checks continue to grow. This is starting to feel easy. (You and your team are building momentum).

By Month 8, you're earning enough to cover a very nice car payment, maybe pay off some credit card bills, or have a little getaway weekend with your spouse or friends.

By Month 9, you are really getting excited. You are starting to see several hundred dollars per month and you know that things are going to keep building because you are more focused than ever. You are probably referring more than one Affiliate per month now and you've got some folks on your team that are really starting to take off.

By month 10, you crossed over into that area where you are making over $1,000 per month in Regular Commissions and you are now in the 50% Leadership Bonus range! Congratulations!

You've stuck with your plan this far and it is really starting to pay off.

By Month 11, you are starting to think about firing your boss! (Or at least paying off some of those debts). Your income is high enough now that most people would be able to consider quitting their regular jobs and doing this full-time.

By Month 12, you're making the kind of income that most people just dream about and you're doing it from home on your computer. By now, friends and family are starting to ask, "What are you doing now?" and things are so much easier than when you started.

Here is how the numbers really stack up with my "Power Of One" approach:

Month 1: 2 Affiliates
Month 2: 5 Affiliates
Month 3: 11 Affiliates
Month 4: 23 Affiliates
Month 5: 47 Affiliates
Month 6: 95 Affiliates
Month 7: 191 Affiliates
Month 8: 383 Affiliates
Month 9: 767 Affiliates
Month 10: 1,535 Affiliates
Month 11: 3,071 Affiliates
Month 12: 6,142 Affiliates

And because you are qualifying for the 50% Leadership Bonus each month, your income is truly unlimited and you are doing very very well. You are getting Fast Track Bonuses, Regular Monthly Commissions, and 50% Leadership Bonuses. Life is good!

Now for the hard cold facts:

Most people in life give up before they ever get to see these kinds of results. If you were to set out on a journey from New York City to Los Angeles, you would cover well over 2,000 miles... closer to 3,000 miles before you even saw Los Angeles looming in the distance.

Imagine going 2,500 miles and then quitting. You didn't reach LA at all. You might even go back to New York and tell people, "Los Angeles doesn't exist. That whole thing is just a scam to get you to buy more gas and drive a lot.". Of course, there are millions of people living in Los Angeles. They know it exists. You just didn't finish the journey. To reach the desination, you MUST COMPLETE THE JOURNEY!

Your results will vary from this chart. This chart assumes a perfect mathematical world. As we all know and experience, the world is not a perfect place and things do change.

I know Affiliates that are WAY ahead of schedule on this plan and I know Affiliates that are a little behind schedule.

If your business is not growing at this rate, that's OK. You can catch up, believe me. If your income level matches Month 3, Month 4, or Month 1 (regardless of when you actually started) then commit today to begin working from that point forward.

Say to yourself, "OK... I'm at Month X... I am going to start from here and focus all the way through Month 12 and beyond."

Go back and review the Training Articles and your Affiliate Plan. Let it sink in just how simple this plan really is. We have been in business since the year 2000 which is amazing in the world of Internet marketing.

Thanks to some tremendous leaders, we are growing like never before. People are starting to catch on to the power of picking and working with a solid company with a proven track record instead of bouncing from one hyped up offer to another.

When you see how powerful this system is; is commit to doing two things:

1) WORKING the plan consistently for at least a year.

2) Teaching your organization how to do the same.

Some will fall away. This is a fact of life. Some will stay right on course. Others will exceed your expectations and this plan.

The point is to focus and stick with it to see the results you want.

Don't hesitate to ask questions.

The Dream Team

Multilevel marketing, or MLM, relies very heavily on the team of people you are working with. MLM by its very nature is dependent on quality relationships between a group, and as a manager of others it falls to you to build and maintain a powerful and effective group of retailers in order to maximize everyone's profits.

Good Team Players 

A good team player is many things including responsible, open to suggestion and flexible. Of course you don't want a team consisting of those easily led, so a team player must also be able to pull his own weight and help motivate those around him.

When looking to recruit teammates, look first as personality. Is the person offensive to you or would he be offensive to others? Do you enjoy being around the individual? Working with a group has just as much to do with overall personality as it does with work ethic and abilities. 

If you find yourself comfortable around a potential team member, take a look at his work background and ethics. MLM is the kind of business that works best for self-starters and those with dedication and initiative. Traditionally good employees might not make the best MLM team members as they might not have the go-to to get the job done without prodding. You don't want to be constantly offering suggestions and pulling someone along who prefers to be given a menial task rather than finding his own way.

Your MLM team should consist of mature, dedicated individuals who aren't afraid to work a little harder than everyone else in exchange for the kind of financial rewards that work will bring.

Motivating Your Team

Once the team is assembled, it will be your task as the manager or leader to keep everyone focused and moving forward. MLM relies heavily on bringing in new accounts and representatives, just as any sales format does, so you must keep your team fired up and working hard.

To motivate your team, you should focus on the positive goal rather than potential failure. Everyone responds better to reward than punishment. Avoid statements such as, "If we don't make our quote this month, we'll lose money." Instead bring excitement to the group but relay the same message, "We're getting close to our goal. As soon as we reach it, we'll be looking at a huge profit!" Don't lie, but always focus on the positive.

A strong leader always leads by example. MLM businesses often develop into passive revenue streams, but a good leader doesn't allow his own efforts to diminish simply because his income has increased. While goals are terrific and should be set together as a team, they do not represent an ending. New goals should constantly be set, and avoid making a goal "maintaining." It is far harder to get excited about maintaining a level than it is to fire up the team to make it to the next level.

The nature of a MLM business means that many are working to sell similar or the same products. As the leader, you should make every effort to unite your team and share strategies and incentives rather than allowing the team to compete with each other. If possible, gather together for casual activities to develop personal relationships. Discuss things other than work so that the team feels united.

You are the leader and you set the standard for your team. Be excited about the business. Share your ideas and enthusiasm with others and always look forward. Listen to what the others have to say and be fair when making decisions, but always remain the motivating force and guiding light. They look to you and your efforts will not be in vain.
