Since January the sales for the leg have averaged about $15,000. I am looking for a seasoned network marketer to take over the leg. Last month we had brought in many new Marketing Executives to the leg and the growth is going to explode. We are opening Germany in the next few weeks and two of the new reps are from Germany with connections.You are probably asking why is this leg for sale? The leg is still in my downline so it will not effect my earnings. The gentleman that is selling the leg runs his own very profitable family business that has been passed down through generations and he just does not have the time to devote to helping support the group.

Are You Scared Of The Crocodile?
2008-03-25 02:58:00 You are thinking...Crocodile???? What I mean is are you scared of rejection? Do you hate cold calling? Are you scared of someone telling you NO on the other end of the line. I was reading an article today about a gentleman that just hated rejection so he sought out a way to grow his business without rejection - at least rejection face to face or during a phone conversation.Here is what he did:1) You need some money to spare - This is your business so you need the money for business expenses that will be written off at year end.2) With the money you need to buy promotional DVD's, tapes, brochures that contain information about the product or business you want to share with others.3) Do a search on Google or another search engine to find Spam - Free business opportunity lists that contain home addresses.4) Type a good letter, To Whom It May Concern or Future Business Partner or Nutrition Product User - whatever suits your needs.

Do You Have A Plan B?
2008-03-17 18:29:00 I Do! Turning on the news today was a bit dismal. When you see one of the oldest and at one time one of the most respected agencies crashing you have to sit back and say to yourself "Am I secure with the company I am with - long-term?" I am commenting on Bear Stearns, once the biggest underwriter of U.S. mortgage bonds. JPMorgan Chief Executive Officer Jamie Dimon bought Bear Stearns.You also have to wonder where this world is headed when the second top news story for the day is the Heather Mills Paul McCartney divorce settlement. People are losing their homes - hey people wake up - will their divorce affect the common person? So you get my point - that means YOU - wake up! So do YOU have a PLAN B? Are you seriously looking for a Plan B or do you think you will never lose your JOB? You say to yourself "I work for a solid company - no need for concern." Well, with the news about Bear Stearns, the cost of gas prices, a weak US dollar, and a stock market that is taking a roller coaster...

2008-03-16 18:19:00 I am happy to say I am glad it is Sunday! I have Tom Petty playing in the background and ready for my week to begin. I know this is going to be a great week because last week was a bit challenging - not going into details but trust me I know the Spring flowers are just around the corner and I cannot wait to feel the sunshine in my face while going for a long run. It will also be nice to veg-out on my new patio, with a nice cocktail and nice conversation with friends in the upcoming weeks (hopefully the temperature will rise a bit to make this all happen!) I will be trying out my new GoChitini's on my guests! Here is my GoChitini recipe:- 1 1/2 cups FreeLife GoChi Juice- 2 oz. Absolute (or Grey Goose) Citron (Vodka) or Gin (whatever you prefer - I prefer the Vodka))- 1 oz. Cointreau orange liqueur- 1 lime (sliced for garnish on side of glass)Combine FreeLife GoChi Juice, Absolute and Cointreau together, pour into glasses and garnish with the lime slices.Create A Great Week!

Beer Belly or Buff Body...Your Choice
2008-03-11 20:35:00 I just got back from visiting a sick friend in the hospital. Sickness - death is a part of our lives. Being surrounded by it in a hospital is the most depressing place to be - at least that is how I feel. I wish there was never such a thing as death. I wish everyone I knew could see the importance of a good fitness routine and good nutrition. I want my friends and family to be with me forever!! To keep a sound body and mind I try each day to work on myself. I would choose a buff body over a beer belly any day! A healthy body means a healthy mind - unless you were born with a preexisting condition or something happened to you that was out of your control I feel there is no reason to not get busy on becoming a healthier you...that means when you are done reading this get up and do 25 jumping jacks!For me being active with a daily fitness routine makes me feel better. It does take time and dedication on my part. When I feel better I seem to accomplish more for my family, friends and bu... More About: Body , Beer , Choice , Belly , Buff
Does Sex Sell?
2008-03-08 21:42:00 The topic came up with a group of my friends. We saw a tidbit on one of the entertainment shows that Victoria's Secret may be covering up - meaning toning down their new ad campaign. It seems that they feel they are getting too "sexy"and not gearing enough towards the sophisticated side of marketing their lingerie. I do get the Victoria's Secret catalogue and some of the pictorials seem a bit over the top - especially when my daughter is by my side and wants to get a glimpse at the "pretty" girls. I have to turn the pages quickly or just look at the catalogue when she is not in the room.There are several marketing companies that use sex to sell their products. Have you watched ESPN lately? If not you are missing out on some of the 'hottest" commercials on television. Sexual appeal is not only selling lingerie but beer, chips, cars, water and many other consumer products. Did you see the Paris Hilton ad for burgers? I do not like Paris Hilton - never met her but I just think she i... More About: Sell

Looking Back...
2008-03-03 00:30:00 Well...two months down in 2008 and only 10 to go! When 2008 came around I know many of you had many dreams and aspirations in your head...maybe some of you actually wrote your dreams down on paper. Before we get any further into 2008 let's reflect for a moment. Have any of you taken the action you have needed to reach your goals? If not what are you waiting for?? Are you still thinking 'I have 10 more months till 2009?' Take a minute tonight and write down a daily, weekly, and monthly plan about how you are going to attack what you need to attack to reach your goals. An example: write down my daily goals will be to contact 3 new prospects each day to tell them about my great "idea, product, business venture, etc." Believe me, if you take action and participated in this activity for the next 30 days I am sure you would reap the rewards of your activity. You will also feel good each day if you accomplished this little goal. I just wanted to give you a little kick in the rear and wa... More About: Back , Looking Back

Guilt, Greed, Network Marketing...
2008-02-20 00:58:00 Being in network marketing has its' ups and downs - especially when first getting started. Once you have set goals and built up a team and reached those goals then what? Do any of you ever feel guilty wanting more than you already have from your business (Monetary - Greed )?I have been with my company now for just over three years - been in the industry for over 10 years. I have done very well for myself. I have worked hard and talked to thousands of people to get an enormous number of people telling me NO before I was able to get to the YES's I have needed to reach my goals. So why is it so hard for me to just sit back and enjoy the fruits of my labor? I do know in part is because I want those I have brought into the business to reach the same level I am with my company. But the more I work with them the more money I make as well and I feel guilty.

"You Can Do Anything You Want...
2008-02-09 18:09:00 as long as you make up your mind you can do it!" Those words were spoken by Dick Hoyt. If you want to be inspired, and see the meaning of dedication and commitment, the video below will hopefully change the way you look at obstacles. A bit of history about Dick and Rick Hoyt. Rick was born with the umbilical cord coiled around his neck which cut off oxygen to his brain. Because of this circumstance, Rick has to face the world much differently than most of the people in the world.When Rick got older he saw an event to benefit a local lacrosse player who had been paralyzed in an accident. Rick told his father that he wanted to participate in the five mile benefit run. Dick was not a long distance runner but had the commitment to his son and his family to help fulfill their dreams. They did do the race together, finished last but they completed what they started - overcoming many obstacles to make this happen. You will see how they run races in the video below.Rick said, "The message o...

Top Keyword and Topic Search Sites List
2008-02-07 19:53:00 I know many of you are always looking for ways to drive traffic to your websites and blogs. I have compiled a list of websites where you can see the top searched keywords and topics. I have listed a brief summery with each link. This should help you choose words wisely if you want your site to be picked up by the web crawlers, bots, search engines...whatever term you use. This is a short list of the sites I use most for my research.1) Alexa - This is one of my favorite statistical search sites. You can view most searched sites by country, language and subject. They have a top 500 global and a Movers and Shakers list that ranks traffic by the change in the amount of visitors that are using each site.2) Yahoo Buzz - You can view the top searches for anything from actors, movies, music, sports, TV, video games, top overall and there is even a list of the decliners.3) Ask.com - This is a very simple search that lists the top searched items on Ask.com This is not in real-time like so...

He is not part of my team with FreeLife or even with my company but we are friends in this vast industry. We all are here to help each other because we know network marketing is the key to our freedom (whatever freedom means to you).Art sent me a book recently titled, The Slight Edge , Secret To A Successful Life, by Jeff Olson. I will be honest there is nothing new in this book to learn. It is just using what you already know and taking action - Jeff states the same thing. I wanted to thank Art for sending me this book and I wanted all my readers to take the time to pick up a copy for yourself.

Lost...Oceanic Six...The Funeral
2008-02-06 02:15:00 I wonder if we will find out in this weeks episode who is part of the Oceanic Six that got off the Island. We know Jack, Kate, Hurley and Jin (because in the episode flashing in the future we saw Jin buying a stuffed animal - I would figure it would be for his child...maybe not???) I also think Sun and Sayid...but who knows. All we know 100% is Jack, Kate and Hurley since we saw them last week in "the real world." Lost is such a nail biter. Jacob's house just creeps me out. Maybe Jacob is real and the house is somehow booby - trapped with cameras and people viewing the visitors. When visitors come to the house the people who set up the house watch and manipulate things in the house with some sort of wireless remotes. Who was in the coffin???? Could it be Ben? He had no family that knew of him since he lived on the island since birth. Since no one came to the funeral I would assume it would be him. If no one attended the funeral, my question would be who made the funera... More About: The Funeral , Funeral

Commitment and Hard Work
More articles from this author:2008-02-03 00:29:00 When you read these words to yourself, Commitment and Hard Work , what do they mean? Do they translate to starting a business and trying it out for a few weeks, maybe a few months and if it does not work out in that short period of time it means giving up? Maybe those words mean you are going to take action for a few years and accomplish whatever it is you set out to do by reaching specific goals? Did anyone ever ask you to write down your WHY when you first started your home based business? Did you ever sit back and really let it sink it what was going to help you get your WHY? Your network marketing, home based business can be compared to a swimmer on a swim team. When you are young your parents put you on a team to hopefully help you build confidence and build strong freindship bonds. Swimmers are very dedicated. They have very long days. Once you are in high school swimmers usually have practice in the morning, before school, and then another practice after school. Remember, once... 1, 2 |
