Newquay

A few weeks ago I spent some time at a lovely campsite overlooking the sea and the weather was lovely (I mention this because its quite unusual for us in England to have lovely weather!)  I spent some considerable time just sitting staringat the waves crashing on the rocks or sometimes just quietly lapping on the shore.

The thing I realised was that the tide will come in and go out everyday, whatever is in it’s way, whatever the weather, whatever else is happening in the world.  It is unstoppable!!  Exactly the quality that you need to build a Network Marketing business!  The sea doesn’t care how many barriers you put in front of it.  It doesn’t care if we build sea walls and sea defences; it will still come in everyday!  And this is what you need to do to build an amazing Network Marketing business.

So be unstoppable in your business.  Ignore the people who tell you it can’t be done (even if it is your family and friends!); you know it CAN be done!  Go around all the obstacles that you will find on your way, or if that doesn’t work, go over them!  And when you are having a bad day, simply give yourself an hour or two off and go out and have fun.  Treat yourself. Take the dog for a walk, get some fresh air; go somewhere you have never been before.  Then get back on the horse (!) and ride away to success.  Don’t allow anyone or anything to stand in the way of your success.

Because just like the sea, you can be unstoppable. You need to be focused, determined and consistent.  Make a detailed plan of what you want to achieve each day and follow it as closely as you can.  Realise that a Home Business takes consistent action for maybe a year or even two before you will see results.  Of course, your life will get in the way; that’s a given!  Just don’t let it get you down.  Understand that stuff happens.  Just totally focus on what you want to achieve and get your head down and keep working.

Keep your dreams alive and right there in front of you, and you will be unstoppable!

Are you concentrating your time on your IPA’s for your internet home business? What I mean by that is the income producing activities. Are you writing articles, producing videos, marketing on Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn or surfing for credits in Traffic Exchanges?

You probably believe that you go online everyday and work hard on your business. But have you ever actually tracked honestly what you are doing and whether the activity is an API or not? I have to admit, although I usually follow a plan, some days I realise that I have not really been focusing on my IPA’s.

You know how it goes, you switch on your computer to work your Internet Home Business and what’s the first thing you do? Check your emails maybe? Stop right there! Because as soon as you open your email inbox (yes I know, you’re just checking how many opt-ins you had overnight, right?) you are sunk! Yes, you know its true and I know its true, lol. It happens to all of us if we will only admit it!

You need to check your emails, you really do, but they are not an Income Producing Activity, so leave them til you’ve done your work for the day. And emails are not the only activity you need to avoid at the start of a day. Chatting to friends on Facebook, answering phone calls and skype instant messaging, as well as tidying your desk (for the 5th time) and filing your papers away should all be left until after you have done your API’s!

In reality, you need to choose how much time you spend on the important things in your Internet Home Business and obviously the IPA’s are the most important. I believe the ratio should be something like 70/30/10, which is 70% doing income producing activities. 30% on Personal Development/Training and then 10% on Customer Service. Of course if you are a newbie, you may not have any customers, so the extra 10% will go on extra training for your business.

So tomorrow, when you turn on your computer, think’ Income Producing Activities’ first!!

We Can Help You To Generate More Traffic to Your Primary Business In Three Simple Steps!

We all know about dotcom boom of the late 1990′s; well it is happening again.  Ws is the newest of the websites addresses and it is growing fast! There are 1,966,514,816 internet users in the world today, a growth of over 444% in the last 10 years, so demand for websites is rising constantly.  Every business owner is realising that they need to be online or they are massively missing out.  So the GDI opportunity or Global Domains International is here for all those people and businesses who missed out from getting their name on the the internet in the dotcom form. You may have missed out in getting your name.com or your business name.com but now you may be quick enough to get your name.ws

So what are GDI offering?  GDI charge $10 a month for your web address, which is a pretty good deal as it includes hosting and up to 10 email addresses as well as a site builder tool included in the price. This means that anyone needing a website can get everything up and running in one go, instead of having to shop around for a domain name and a hosting account separately, and paying someone to actually build their site for them.

But GDI is also a business opportunity, in that you can enroll others into the business, and you get paid £1 per month for everyone who joins below you. You also get paid for the people under you, five levels deep.  GDI also pay several different bonuses; in fact if you bring in 5 people in one week, you qualify for a bonus of $100, if you are an ungraded member, which is pretty good in my eyes:-)

The majority of people who recruit others into GDI use this company as just one income stream and maybe as more of a downline builder; often using their ws website to advertise a whole stream of income generators at one time.  There are also a number of GDI advertising c0-ops running.  These are for people to club together to advertise their GDI business.  They then share the people they recruit into the business.

Overall I believe GDI to be an great business opportunity as well as a competitively priced website option. The very fact that it costs just $10 a month makes it very popular.  Its a great product, which does not require any of the usual shipping costs associated with Network Marketing products, and is something almost everyone needs nowadays, making it something of a no-brainer IMHO!!

Do you use a Dream Book, or a dream board to help you visualise WHY you are doing your home based business? Many people (and I was guilty of this too when I first started my business) think that a dream book or board is a load of baloney!  I found it hard to believe that sticking pictures of a new car or a holiday I wanted would help my business in any way.  I would just nod along when anyone told us to go and make a dream book, and then just not bother.

Until one day at a home business meeting, when a lady bought in her dream book and showed us through it.  She was so passionate about what she wanted from the future, that it shone from her.  Her eyes were alight when she showed us pictures of her family and how she intended to help them once she had the money to do so.  And I realised at that moment that this lady would definitely succeed in her home based business.  You could just tell from the passion she had when she talked about her dreams.  You knew nothing would ever stand in the way of her success.  And that planted a seed (just like my last article!!) in my head.

A short while later it was my birthday and I asked one of my daughters to buy me a beautiful deep pink book that I had seen that even tied with a ribbon.  I didn’t go out looking for a book; I hadn’t even realised that I intended to start a dream book,but while I was browsing around a shop I saw it and thought straight away – my dream book!  Amazing how the seed of an idea can be planted in your head, and start to grow sometime later!

So a few weeks later I started thinking about what I wanted to put in my book.  I knew my main why was to get my partner Alan out of his job.  So I started with pictures of him, and how his life would look once he could give up working!  But as I thought more about it, I realised that I already had a good idea of what I wanted to see in my dream book. It expanded my mind and my thinking – I was actually designing my future life.

My dream book is definitely a work in progress; when I started it everything was a dream.  Now some of my dreams have started to appear in my life and I find I have more goals to add to my book.  Like grandchildren for instance and how I can help them in the future!  And I am remembering long forgotten dreams or wishes I had and perhaps gave up on earlier in my life.  Now I am bringing out these dreams, re-examining them and adding them to my dream book if I still want them.

And don’t make the mistake of thinking its all about a new car, house or holiday.  My dream book is full of how I can help my family, friends and charities. About how I can lead a better, more fulfilled and healthier life! It’s not all about money, but thats nice too!

If you have been guilty of dismissing the idea of a dream book or board, think again! Because you have pictures of your goals clearly there in front of you, you mind accepts that and leads you towards your dreams.  I know because it is slowly happening to me!!  If you can visualise what you want out of life you can get it! Make it real!

So what about you??  Do you have a Dream Book or a Visualization Board?  What is it like?  Do you believe??  Please let me know by adding your comments; I would love to know what other people think about using a Dream Book!

Most people who are sponsored into an MLM Home Business fail! In fact the figure is somewhere around 95 to 97% of people who join an MLM Home Business will fail to make more than $10 a month!  That is a very high percentage and hopefully over the next few years, this figure will come done considerably because of the internet.

So why do so many fail?  One of the major reasons is that people who work at their MLM Home Business offline are taught that they should approach EVERYONE they know and everyone they meet as they go through their lives to a business presentation.  The trouble with this is that many people just do not have the right mentality to run their own business.

The majority of people are going to be happy enough working 9-5 in a job.  It may be that they love their job or it may be that they don’t, but the bottom line is they would not be prepared to give up regular pay checks.  Running an MLM Home Business would be considered too far out of their comfort zone.

To my mind the people who are likely to succeed in an MLM/Network Marketing Home Business are the ones with a fire in their belly!  They need to be looking for something; maybe a different way of life.  They need to want more out of life than they are getting and to be prepared to put in the effort to get it.  And I don’t just mean money.  Although that is always good!

They must have a reason WHY they want to get involved that is so BIG, so powerful that nothing will stop them from achieving the results they want.

They need to be determined. MLM can be like the school of hard knocks!  You would need to be prepared to jump up again everytime you got knocked back.  Because believe me MLM is full of ups and downs.

And you would need persistence.  Because results do not come thick and fast when you first start in your MLM Home Business.  You need to go through a learning curve first, and then you need to work your business until you build momentum; only then will you start to see real results.

You would also need to have the right mindset to run an MLM Home Business.  You need to be clear and focused on your goals.  You need to discipline yourself to work on your business everyday. And you need to be prepared to realise when you are procrastinating and push yourself over the next hurdle.  If you have the right mindset, nothing will stop you!

And the last thing is ‘don’t give up‘!  So many people give up on their MLM Home Business before they reach their dreams.  Don’t listen to the dream stealers who say you will never do it.  Just do it and prove them wrong.

Just close your eyes for a minute or two and imagine yourself in that life that you desire.  Imagine you have already reached it.  What can you see?  What are you doing? If you can see it clearly in your mind, your mind will work towards achieving it.

Believe in yourself.  I do!

So, have you decided? Are you the right sort of person for an MLM Home Business? If so and you want to cut your learning curve down by half, check out the #1 Lead Generation System Sue uses to build her MLM Home Business on the internet!

So, we’re almost half way through this year!  Time flies! How are you going with the goals you set for working your home business in the New Year?  Have you achieved what you intended to achieve?  Did you start in January full of good intentions and aspirations, but find ‘real life’ got in the way and your home business fell by the wayside?  It’s so easy to lose your way when you work from home. You cn get distracted by things happening around you and suddenly you realise tht you have just put your business down and lost any impetus you had!

In order to achieve the results we all want from our business, we really need to touch our business everyday.  No, I’m not saying you cannot ever have a holiday, or a couple of days break, but early on in your home business, if you just keep disappearing for days on end, your business will suffer.  I know, because I did it! Because I had never worked from home before, I would let little things stop me from working and then think ‘oh well its time to make dinner now, I can’t work now’!  and so on.  Almost any excuse would keep me away.

Then I realised that everytime I stopped working for a few days, I stopped generating leads for my business.  And I didn’t like that!  So now I always do something.  Even If I can only spare half an hour, I will do something towards getting my name out there on the internet. I can get up a bit earlier in the morning or I can stay up a bit later at night.  I can miss that television programme that I usually watch!  And even if I am away from home, I can brainstorm ideas for future articles or videos!

So don’t let your life or your children stop you from building your home based business. Make your family the reason WHY you do this business, not an excuse for not doing it! If you think of it from that point of view, it makes it easier to give up some time to your work.  Think about the future, and what this business can give you.  It can time you time and money freedom to ensure you have a wonderful family life!  It can give you a great, comfortable future!

If you have let your home business slide, now is the time to pull out the stops and re-committ to putting in the effort.  Make a pact with yourself that you put a certain number of hours into your business each week.  Try making a new plan of what you want to achieve in the next six months, then work out what you would have to do each week to achieve that goal.

Make it into a big colourful chart and put it up where you work, so you can see clearly what you are meant to be doing each week, or each day.  That way you won’t be sitting in front of your computer thinking ‘what should I be doing?’

Decide that even if you may have let the first half of the year slip by, you will grab the rest of the year by the short and curlies and work it!!

Hope this article has inspired you to work on your home business goals! If you want to discover how to cut your learning curve down by half, grab the awesome marketing system that I use!

So are you reaching your goals? Please leave me a comment and let me know, I would love to hear from you!!

If you have come online in an attempt to improve your MLM  Home Business or save it from going under, then there is something you need to realise straight away.  There are lots of differences between running your Network Marketing home business on the internet and running it offline!  But the major difference is that we do NOT promote or advertise our Network Marketing company on the internet!

Or shall I say, professional internet marketers do not advertise their business online! If you see someone on the social media sites blatently advertising their business, that is just because they do not know how to market online.  They may get an odd sign-up in their business, but they will not go to the top. If you want to build a top team online, you need to understand this, and avoid making the same mistakes.

I am sure you are thinking ‘well what on earth do we do??’  Well on the internet, you will be promoting something else instead!  YOURSELF! If this worries you, well, don’t panic!  It is not as difficult as you might think.  You see online, we use something called Attraction Marketing in order to attract leads (or prospects) to us.We do not chase people and drag them kicking and screaming (well almost!) into our business as we do offline.

The great thing about Attraction Marketing is that because we have our photos and videos out all over the internet, people get used to seeing us and know our name long before we have ever talked to them.  How amazing is that?  It means that often when we get to speak to them on the phone, they already recognise our voice and feel as though we are already friends!

How much easier would your phone calls be if everyone you spoke to felt like they already knew you??  So much more comfortable on both sides!  And of course, because our prospects know our names and see us talking on video, they can see clearly what we are doing, and have already decided whether or not they want to work with us.

Another amazing point, is that we are only dealing with prospects who are either in Network Marketing already, or who are actively seeking information about Network Marketing. So these people are very highly targeted leads!

So again – when you talk on the phone to these prospects online, you are talking to QUALIFIED leads, who already know, like and trust you! Could it get any easier??

Nothing like the unresponsive, unfriendly and more importantly UNQUALIFIED people to whom I spent six years talking to on the phone with my Network Marketing business offline!

Now you know the one powerful difference in online marketing are you ready to take control of your MLM Home Business and learn how to Magically Attract Prospects To You ?

I have been working my home business on the internet now for over six months full time.  For the majority of that time, apart from holidays, I have spent 8-10 hours, sometimes more, each day, studying, writing articles and building up an online presence. I am absolutely loving what I do, and can’t wait to get working every day.  I often spend my nights tossing and turning in bed with ideas floating round in my head, that are keeping me awake!

I have put on about half a stone, am very unfit, and sometimes ache from sitting at the computer for so long.  Not that this has ever stopped me!

But it has made me realise that this is not good for me.  When I realised I was out of puff just climbing the stairs, I knew I had to change things.  So I have embarked on a few lifestyle changes and I can feel the difference already, so I am sharing them in case you are doing the same thing.  I now go for at least one walk a day (its spring here in England, so a great time to get out in the fresh air) or sometimes a bike ride.  Sometimes I get in a second walk with my man in the evening.

Amazingly after only two weeks at this, I feel so much better already, and my paunchy stomach is already receding!

And another wonderful thing is that I feel it is actually helping my home business to escape from the computer for a short while.  I am more focused.  While I am walking, ideas come to mind of what I should be doing next or article ideas, and I can see everything so much more clearly when I am walking.  Its funny, but I spend a little less time on the computer, but I work a little harder.  Probably I am just working smarter, not harder!

I have also changed several of my coffees for glasses of water.  Much better for you, and of course you should not drink too much coffee anyway.  And water keeps me hydrated. And I am cutting back on the snacks I used to eat.  It’s so easy when you work from home and no-one is around, to just keep nipping to the kitchen for another packet of crisps or other ‘naughty’ snack!  So now I am keeping some fresh and dried fruit and nuts around for when I need something.

At lunch now I actually stop work, go away from the computer and sit somewhere else to enjoy my lunch; preferably the garden!  Again the change of scenery makes me more refreshed when I return.

So take some time out of your busy schedule to relax or get some exercise; the result can only be a healthier you and a better run home business!
Why don’t you Take Time Out To Improve Your Home Business? Sue builds her Network Marketing business online using the #1 Attraction Marketing System , MyLeadSystem Pro!

If you are thinking about jumping onboard and running your MLM online, here are several reasons why I believe that is a great idea!

1. You actually can get marketing training on the internet!

When you start a Network Marketing business from home, you are shown by your upline what they do to recruit people into their business. This usually includes showing the business to all your family and friends, posting flyers on cars and stopping people in shopping malls. Unfortunately this only works for a small number of very outgoing, confident people. What you really need is training in MARKETING! Because this business is called Network or Multilevel MARKETING.

2. You really can work this business from home!

Because you are working on your computer on the internet, it really is a ‘work from home business‘. Although you can not just stay behind your computer forever and never go out to meet a single person, you can lay down a very good groundwork for your business on the internet. Even if you only have evenings and weekends, you can set up your presence online, join all the social media sites and slowly start to make a name for yourself.

So if you are stuck at home with young children or for any other reason, working your MLM business from home could be a godsend!

3. Online you make money on the people who do NOT join your business too!!

You see on the internet, when running an MLM business, we use something called a Funded Proposal. This ensures that you can make money sooner rather than later, on anyone who becomes one of your prospects. When someone ‘opts-in’ to your list, ie jumps into your funnel, they receive emails offering them marketing help and advice. If they choose to use this advice and buy the product we have suggested, you make a commission on it. Therefore, even if they do not join your primary business (your mlm) you may still make money from them.

And don’t make the mistake of thinking you are duping these people into buying from you. The tools and resources which you are offering them are quality tools that they will undoubtedly need to market their MLM online. In the long run, if they are serious about building an MLM business on the internet, they need these products.

4. Calling people on the phone is so much easier!

That may sound strange. How can it be easier?? Well on the internet, when we are marketing our MLM business, we do not chase people or ask them to look at our opportunity. THEY COME TO US!! We use something called Attraction Marketing, where we brand ourselves, not our product. Our focus is always on giving value and helping others to succeed in their MLM business, whatever company they are with. We write articles and make videos. We have our photo up on all the social media sites and our blogs and other sites online.

So when someone becomes a lead and we pick up the phone and call them, they often already know our voice from our videos or can picture us from our photo!! And because we have not chased them; indeed they have come to us by signing up on one of our web pages, they actually WANT to talk to us!! Amazing.

When I think back to all the calls I made to people who were absolutely not interested in a home business opportunity!! How desperate I was! And the problem is that when you are desperate, it comes out in your voice. So your prospect often knows that you scared and uncomfortable. Nowadays when I pick up the phone, I know I am speaking to someone who is either already in Network Marketing, or is interested in getting involved! How much better is that??

5. It’s so much more fun!!

When I think back to the old days of running my MLM business off the internet, and remember lots of proscrastination and feelings of dread! I cannot honestly remember enjoying it that much, but I was determined, and that is a strength that you need in MLM. But now I have so much more fun. The people I talk to are so upbeat and optimistic. They all help each other and try to always give value to everyone. So you are working in a much more positive vibe!!

And of course, you can always get up and dance around the room or make yourself another cup of coffee…………..

So if you are ready to jump onboard and run your MLM business online you may like to start with this training on how to get free leads from Facebook!!

Things may come to those who wait but only things left by those who hustle.

(This saying was borrowed from Robert Kiyosaki’s Facebook page!!)

This morning I went on Facebook and had a few new friend requests as usual.  I decided to deal them straight away.  I accepted the first two, then looked at the third one, who had written quite alot by Facebook standards.  Wow, it was from Robert Kiyosaki, author of Rich Dad, Poor Dad amongst other things.  Doesn’t it make you realise the power of Social Media!  Robert Kiyosaki requested me as a friend!! Amazing. Yes, I’m am sure I am not the only one, but doesn’t it just amaze you that you can connect with just about anyone on Social Media sites.

It would have been hard to imagine being able to chat on the internet with anyone famous a few years ago.  My daughter spoke to Dawn French a few months ago on Twitter! Incredible.  So are you using Social Media in your business? And if not why not?  Robert Kiyosaki is in his 60′s but he is embracing the internet and modern ways of doing business.  He actually asked me to join his fan page, and offered me an ebook he has written for $5 instead of $65.  Well of course I grabbed it; who wouldnt?

Because readers are leaders, and leaders are readers!!

And anything written by Robert Kiyosaki  is outstanding so I cannot wait to read it!

So what, I hear you say.  Well what made Robert choose Facebook to spread the word about his new ebook??  Because Facebook is totally FREE!  He knows that because his name is well known he can get extraordinary exposure for this ebook, just by creating a presence on Facebook.  And it WILL go viral.  Because Facebook is the second most visited site on the internet now; everyone reads each others pages and it will spread like wildfire!!

So if you have a business and you are not promoting that business on Facebook, you are missing out on some spectacular, instant free advertising.  More and more internet marketers are jumping onto the bandwagon and advertising their business for free on Facebook.  Start your own group, give away free information, advice or tips on your area of business.  Invite people to join.  Add other people as friends like Robert did.  And just see the results you get back.

But in doing that, don’t force other people to look.  Just a friendly word to them about what you are offering, nothing heavy. That is definitely the way to get people interested.  Don’t force your business down people’s throats, you will just be avoided as a spammer.  If you give value, you will get people’s interest.

Be like Robert Kiyosaki, embrace change in your life.

So if you want Robert Kiyosaki to add you as a friend on Facebook then get started NOW with this FREE Facebook Training!!
