...in network marketing.

The saying "Time Flies When You Are Having Fun" is so true.  When we first started this site years ago , we never imagined were it would take us. 

But now, looking at over 3 years of time, approaching the end of 2013  - well it us thinking about the good and the bad of working from home in network marketing. I do this full time among other adventures so I know the weight it can have on one and the pros and cons.

Both John and I have met a lot of individuals along the way. We have fostered relationships, helped many of you grow your businesses, find your niche and obtain true success. We have even came across those who were in complete opposition to what were were doing in our lives and what we were teaching others. But above all --- we failed and succeeded all in the same breath. 

We have learned to live and let live. Not everyone will understand the path you are on. Not everyone will even want to obtain the goals you have - and not everyone has your best interest at heart. What keeps the both of us focused,  is the fact that we are each other's supporters and thrive off of supporting others.

With all the information surrounding working at home, internet and network marketing, it doesn't mean a thing if you don't know how to apply it and make it work for your business. So my recommendation to you? Find someone you trust, find someone who understands the path you are on and find someone who isn't afraid to share insider tips with you, someone who not only looks out for #1 but also for #2, #3 and so forth. Once you find the person (or persons) -  allow them to mentor you. Foster the relationship and watch your work and business truly begin to take shape.

Blessings to you all - strength and endurance because this industry is not for the faint at heart.

Where is your spark and hustle?

So my guilty pleasure is television: even more, my DVR. I don’t have a lot of free time so I am not able to watch some of my favorite shows the minute they air – I have to wait until I actually schedule down time in my planner, or wait for those nights when I can’t sleep.

Picture
This weekend – I scheduled downtime. So I made it my quest to clear my DVR. Now –although that didn’t happen. I was able to catch up on some early March episodes of THE TALK, and this one episode really caught my attention – where is your spark and hustle?


Watch the clip below to see what I mean...


Then the hustle... to make a strenuous effort to obtain something through energetic activity. The hustle is simply your business – your passion. How are you going to get paid to do what you love?

To start my hustle – I went to social media sites and took advantage of free business promotions and began by providing value to my niche. Don’t underestimate the power of social media and all that it can do for you. Tory Johnson was able to make a living and uses social media as ways to gain business with her spark and hustle. Corporations, small business owners, network marketers, and many others are using social media platforms as ways of advertising, generating leads and making money for their businesses. You can too.

Most people that start in a home based business do not have a marketing background. The great news is, it is fairly easy to start marketing online and build your income at home very quickly. This concept I am going to introduce you to is one that has been seeing massive results in many industries for years, especially online. I used it and was able to replace my corporate income in 4 weeks. “LIKE” our fanpage and sign up to get your FREE 3 day video course. A step-by-step guide to generate income in your business using social media.

Do you see this picture on the left?


What does it look like to you… what comes to mind?


As for me… I look at this picture and see just how great the world is.




When I look at this picture I think of the Christian Sunday School classes who sing “He’s got the whole world in His hands….” That’s what I see. You might see something different. But for all – this picture is a symbol of the #1 way to achieve greatness in your home business. It doesn’t matter what industry you are in, whether you are a day care provider, auto mechanic, or even a tutu maker, what matters is your mind, heart and soul.

Your mind heart and soul MUST be in sync with one another. You must understand your purpose here on earth and the very breath you breathe. There is a reason you still exist and that has to coincide with your business.

Look, many in my downline have access to the same tools I do that generate REAL success. John and I give it away for FREE – so money is never a factor but we used to ask ourselves why weren’t they succeeding??? What we found out is this… mentally – they aren’t ready. One has to be hungry to succeed- the desire and determination to succeed has to be oozing through their veins. To be mentally prepared you must understand and be prepared for obstacles – they will come. So find out what those obstacles could be and get your game plan together right now – to overcome them. Next, believe in your heart that you can and WILL succeed. Your “why” not only has to exist in your mind, but it has to flourish in your heart… and even more… stem from your soul. The very core of your being has to be in sync with your mind and heart.

Simply put- your mindset is the #1 way to achieve greatness in your home business. Without it – it will not work. You could have all the systems, spent $1000’s in coaching and tools – but if you don’t have the mindset to apply and to really believe in yourself – it means nothings and will get you no where.

I leave you with this… God used ordinary me to do extraordinary things. You might not believe in the same God but the reality is this… you were created to do something on this earth – to make a lasting change for not only yourself but for others. If your home business is the source where that change is coming from… embrace it. Get your mind right, get your heart and soul in tune with one another and get to work. It’s time to walk in your destiny and really use the #1 way to achieve greatness in your home business TODAY.

So what’s next? Grab our 3 day free training for some great tips on achieving success in your home business.

TEAMWORK
Makes The DREAMWORK
in Network Marketing

Let me tell you a little secret that I’ve learned through many days of trial and error in network marketing… you don’t have to do it alone. Yep. That’s my secret. You do not have to do network marketing alone to grow your business.

I’m sure you’ve heard the quote “Teamwork makes the Dreamwork” …well – it’s true even for network marketing. There is no “I” in team, thus people have to work together to truly build a profitable business.

Now I know, many of us think that I you partner with someone you’ll losing out on profits, leads and maybe even creditability but what I have found is the exact opposite. You don’t even have to necessarily be in the same marketing group together, but what I have found that shared experiences, strategies of what works and what doesn’t goes along way. Take me, for example, I’ve been actively doing network marketing for about 6 months. Prior to that I worked a corporate job that was driving me nuts, making me sick – literally and taking all my time. I had joined other MLM and network marketing companies along the way but never did more than enough to make my initial investment back. BUT 6 months ago something happened, a light bulb went off and I left corporate to pursue my dreams and joined a company I love. Along the way – I realized I was working harder but was ok with that because I was working for myself. I found a lot of things that DID NOT work. Spent a lot of extra money for products and services that DID NOT deliver the claimed results. I was spinning the mouse wheel and started to feel defeated. I did not know at the time that TEAMWORK makes the DREAMWORK – I was trying to do it all by myself.

One late night internet search later, I came across a site that had tutorials, articles and videos that actually showed me step-by-step how to do certain things ALL internet marketers needed to know. AND it was free! I plugged in and took advantage of all the free information and guides – even if that meant I had to opt in for a couple of things. I was getting this valuable information SOMEONE ELSE put together and made it work for my business. Slowly but surely, I started to sale products, traffic started coming out of the wood works for my site, and my level of expertise began to grow tremendously because of these tools. I started getting online marketing success because of the help I received from someone else. I took information from a team of folks who went through the same crap I had endured- they found the solution and willingly, voluntarily did the same for me. They believed and understood the concept of giving back and the belief that TEAMWORK MAKES THE DREAMWORK in network marketing. You don’t have to do it alone anymore. Yes, it’s your brand, it’s your product, your website, your money but why not get plugged in to a system that truly provides value and step-by-step guides to your success. What do you have to lose? Nothing except financial and time freedom IF you don’t take advantage of this system. Join myself and a great team of marketers, mentors and success driven individuals in creating a lasting partnership to your success. TEAMWORK MAKES THE DREAMWORK – click here and join the group that doesn’t just talk about success but works with you every day to create it.

Note: There are 3 types of systems you will find out there… those that promote working in isolation, those that stress working against others or the system that promotes working with a community. John and I hope that you find the perfect fit for your business that drives you to internet marketing success. Just know this, many of us who find the success we desire in network marketing, did not find it by working alone.

GIVE VALUE! AND BUILD RELATIONSHIPS!

One of my mentors KIM ROACH, pointed out this simple concept to me. These are the insider secrets to building online marketing relationships…

“You have to remember that these are REAL relationships just like your offline friendships. If you only talked to your friend about one topic and nothing else they would soon grow tired of you and probably wonder why you had become so fanatical.

And if you want to build relationships online, you need to keep the same principle in mind. Find out about the person BEHIND the business itself. What are their hobbies, their passions, their favorite vacation spots, etc...

You can find a lot of this type of information either on their blog or on Twitter and Facebook! The key here is to find something that you have in common with them. If both of you love Jets football, then talk about that. If both of you love American Idol, then talk about that.

Find common experiences that you can talk about. Make it real. If you're only doing this with yourself in mind then you've already lost the game.”

“People don’t care what you know until they know that you care” I get so many people chatting or inbox-ing me with their ads and opportunities… there’s no “hi – how are you?” -  no attempt to really find out who I am and if their product can even help me. But more importantly, they provide NO value. We see ads all day long. What makes you think that all of a sudden I am going to pay attention to yours? I am not. One of the insider secrets to building online marketing relationships is to remember, just like everyone else, my time is valuable and I would rather spend it on learning my trade and enhancing my business practices.

The key component to building a relationship and a list is providing FREE value. Give away real techniques and practices that work for you. Now is not the time to be selfish. If it’s time that you are in need of – give it away. Spend more time helping someone else out and teaching others. If it’s money you need more of – give it away. If you have a product that you could sell but are just starting out…give it away. Encourage others to use it and provided you feedback- all for free. It sounds a little crazy but I guarantee you it’s essential to your success and being seen as an expert in your industry.

Enough reading- already! Get to work. Start getting to “know” people online and offline. Start finding out who they really are, what they like and what they dislike. Share valuable information with others- make it real, make it simple and plain and then put it out there for everyone to see. Quickly you will begin to see an increase in your following, you will begin to receive emails, comments, even calls on how much you have helped someone. They will then be asking you, “How can I work with you”… and this my dear friend is insider secret to building online marketing relationships.

Our mission is to help those that want to reach $10,000 per month do so easily, by following a simple system. If you want to see how others are doing it and how YOU can apply our strategy to your business and see massive results, get your FREE 3 day training by clicking here
