I attended a high school reunion for the class that graduated a year before me. It was their 27th year since being out of school and one of the guys from the class set up a more intimate get together while he was visiting from out of town. There were two ways he did this which remind me of the forces that drive the network marketing industry.
First, he is on Facebook, not building a business but for social reasons. So he sent everyone he knew on Facebook an invite to the event (provided they went to our High School) and regardless of if they graduated in his year or not. You see he was using the network he built in school, not just of the people in his class, but of all the people he knew in high school. (hint: we network with other people in other networking businesses).
Second, word of mouth, all the people he invited sent the invitation to people they knew that went to high school with us. Again, the year they graduated didn't matter.
The outcome, through the internet and word of mouth, there was a great turnout for the event. Held at a local bar/restaurant near the school we graduated from.
And here is something else I noticed. The relationships we built 27 years ago, still applied this past weekend. New friendships and new memories were made. No matter how much time goes by those friendships never die. Build them once, build them right, build them to last your lifetime!
Gotta love Facebook! Bringing the world back together!
If you want to see some of the photos from our event you can check out my facebook page, add yourself as friend if you haven't done so already: www.facebook.com/theresagiambrone

Happy Mothers Day!
Wow, Mothers Day is a great day, and being a mother of four kids, it gives me the time to reflect on exactly what kind of mother I have been and how that has impacted my children. It is not only a time to celebrate being a mom, but being the person in a childs life that instills values, love, committment, and the list is endless.
Being a mom is a huge responsibility but lets face it, there isn't really an owners manual on how to be a mom, and how to raise your child or children. And being in home business is no different. For example, some of us, make the decision to have kids, don't do any prep work, don't talk to other mothers, we just decide we want kids and we go ahead and start a family. Once the child is born, it is a learn as you go experience, we have setbacks, failures, make mistakes but all in all we learn and get better and adapt and change and if it works we continue to use it, if not, we chuck it and look for a new way.
Then there are those of us that prepare and prepare and prepare, and once ready we start our family. We have a schedule and timeline for everything, from how many kids we are going to have, how many years apart they will be, what schools they will go to, we start saving for their college, and wedding immediately. We read books, talk to other parents, talk to each other about how they are going to raise the kids, and then we get started, and guess what, along they way, there are detours, changes, nothing goes as exactly as planned but we know what our final goal is and we pretty much stay the course, and in the end (is there really an end, when it comes to kids?) in this instance, we will use the term end, as the moment the child moves out and is on their own, so in the end, we look at what we have created, what we have given the child, the mistakes and the successes of raising that child and what type of person that child is and what impact that child will have in the world. And we can be proud that we took action and did something, regardless of if we just did it or if we planned every step, the key is we took action and we can be proud that we did do our best.
So with that, take a look at where you are in your business. Are you ready to jump in or are you a planner. Either way do something, nurture it and do daily activities to make sure you are progessing. What kind of a parent are you, and what kind of an entreprenuer are you. One that sets goals and educates themself and then gets started, or the type that jumps right in feet first, learning as you go. Either way, with a great business model such as the one explained in the CoffeeHouse Letter, you can't lose. If you are looking for a way to be a better business owner and provide your family with financial stability and give your children the keys to being successful in whatever it is they choose, lead by example, and you make the decision today, to be your best and do your best.

Home Business Success
Are you considering getting started in a home business and wondering if you have what it takes to succeed? Are you the entrepreneurial type?
I read somewhere that there are four categories people fall into by the age of 65.
Out of 100 people:
36% will still continue to work after retirement, maybe they are the people greeting us at WalMart.
54% are dependent on social security and/or pension – and unbelievably, most of these people are happy to be getting 50% of what they made when they were working - something wrong with that picture.
5% have died.
4% retire financially dependent, meaning they have enough money to live on.
1% are independently wealthy.
Now not everyone can be in the 1% category, as someone has to provide certain services or none of us would survive. But I know which category I am in.
So if you are telling yourself you do not have at least $1500 to invest in a business, take a closer look at your circumstances. Somewhere something went wrong and you have to decide if you want to change it or continue on that same path.
Which category do you choose? If you choose the 1% are you willing to back it up and take the necessary actions to achieve that type of success. It is your choice. Life is all about choices. We have the Freedom to choose and do anything we want.
Success does not happen by accident, it is born out of intentions and action. It starts with your mindset.
Here are some great books to get you started:
Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill
Rich Dad, Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki
The Power of Positive Thinking by Norman Vincent Peale

Step Back to Make Wise Business Decisions
The first 30 days of the year are behind us and although we should have been doing the following the latter half of 2008, there is still time to put together our business plan for 2009. You cannot afford to wait any longer, as your business year should be broken down into four cycles of three months each, and if you wait until the first cycle is over to re-evaluate where you are in terms of business, you will have lost 25% of your business profits.So with that, grab a pen and paper and jot down what your income goals were for 2008 and what your actual profit was and what actions you took to achieve them. If you did not reach your income goals the following evaluations are crucial to your success. (As a side note, if you did achieve your income goals - CONGRATULATIONS - but you still will want to take a look at the following steps, as you always want to improve on prior years and offer value to your customers/partners.)
1) Take a look at your primary company. How long have you been with them, if you are not making money how is the company doing as a whole? Do you believe in your products, could the product stand-alone, meaning would people purchase this product if there was not a business opportunity attached to it? Now is the time to make the decision on if you want to commit another year or move on to something else. Keep in mind, you don't want to jump from company to company, but just as in corporate America, a CEO is always a CEO regardless of what company he is with. So you will always be a network marketer, you just need to find the right fit for you. If you are committed to being a success choose wisely here and GO FOR IT!
2) Do you have multiple streams of income set up to finance your primary business? Such as affiliate programs, ebooks, marketing tools, etc. You can see some of the affiliate programs I have used and recommend right here at my blog on the right side.
3) Are you targeting the right market? Do you have different niche markets set up to target the right customers and business partners?
4) Are you using a company replicated website or do you have your own self-branded sites. This is crucial in marketing on the internet today, especially if you are advertising on GOOGLE as Google likes original content.
5) Do you have a system in place so that when a new business partner makes the decision to get started with you they can duplicate what you are doing and get into profit quickly? One that will teach them not only skillset and mindset, but equip them with tools to generate their own leads and create autoresponders.
As you can see that although the company you choose to represent is important, more important is that you have a system in place, that can teach you and others how to market, because you could have the best product in the world but without a system to share it with others, nobody would know about it.

Don't Follow the Follower
I received this in my inbox early Friday morning, as I always receive a "Friday Story" by being on Bob Proctors email list, and I wanted to share because it is an awesome story. If you are not on Bob's list you can go here to sign up.
Processionary caterpillars travel in long, undulating lines, one creature behind the other. Jean Hanri Fabre, the French entomologist, once lead a group of these caterpillars onto the rim of a large flowerpot so that the leader of the procession found himself nose to tail with the last caterpillar in the procession, forming a circle without end or beginning.
Through sheer force of habit and, of course, instinct, the ring of caterpillars circled the flowerpot for seven days and seven nights, until they died from exhaustion and starvation. An ample supply of food was close at hand and plainly visible, but it was outside the range of the circle, so the caterpillars continued along the beaten path.
People often behave in a similar way. Habit patterns and ways of thinking become deeply established, and it seems easier and more comforting to follow them than to cope with change, even when that change may represent freedom, achievement, and success.
If someone shouts, "Fire!" it is automatic to blindly follow the crowd, and many thousands have needlessly died because of it. How many stop to ask themselves: Is this really the best way out of here?
So many people "miss the boat" because it's easier and more comforting to follow - to follow without questioning the qualifications of the people just ahead - than to do some independent thinking and checking.
A hard thing for most people to fully understand is that people in such numbers can be so wrong, like the caterpillars going around and around the edge of the flowerpot, with life and food just a short distance away. If most people are living that way, it must be right, they think. But a little checking will reveal that throughout all recorded history the majority of mankind has an unbroken record of being wrong about most things, especially important things. For a time we thought the earth was flat and later we thought the sun, stars, and planets traveled around the Earth. Both ideas are now considered ridiculous, but at the time they were believed and defended by the vast majority of followers. In the hindsight of history we must have looked like those caterpillars blindly following the follower out of habit rather than stepping out of line to look for the truth.
It's difficult for people to come to the understanding that only a small minority of people ever really get the word about life, about living abundantly and successfully. Success in the important departments of life seldom comes naturally, no more naturally than success at anything - a musical instrument, sports, fly-fishing, tennis, golf, business, marriage, parenthood.
But for some reason most people wait passively for success to come to them - like the caterpillars going around in circles, waiting for sustenance, following nose to tail - living as other people are living in the unspoken, tacit assumption that other people know how to live successfully.
It's a good idea to step out of the line every once in a while and look around to see if the line is going where we want it to go. If it is not, it might be time for a new leader and a new direction.
For those who have tried repeatedly to break a habit of some kind, only to repeatedly fail, Mary Pickford said, "Falling is not failing, unless you fail to get up." Most people who finally win the battle over a habit they have wanted to change have done so only after repeated failures. And it's the same with most things.
The breaking of a long-time habit does seem like the end of the road at the time - the complete cessation of enjoyment. Suddenly dropping the habit so fills our minds with the desire for the old habitual way that, for a while, it seems there will no longer be any peace, any sort of enjoyment. But that's not true. New habits form in a surprisingly short time, and a whole new world opens up to us.
So, if you've been trying to start in a new direction, you might do well to remember the advice of Mary Pickford: breaking an old habit isn't the end of the road; it's just a bend in the road. And falling isn't failing, unless you don't get up.

Tarantula's in Network Marketing Part II of II
Okay, so now we all know I was a hysterical little girl deathly afraid of tarantulas and how I overcame my fear and got over it and now can hold my daughter Jessica’s tarantula Vorto. If you don’t know the entire story but want to read about it, check out my previous blog. And just to prove I did hold him here are two pictures of me with Vorto.
So here is another lesson I learned by watching Vorto one day. If you don’t know, Tarantulas eat live crickets, so Jessica brings a couple home for Vorto and we put them in his glass enclosure, here is a picture of that.
To learn more about this brand of mlm and building your own online business, get a free report here. Or check out some awesome ebooks available about building online here.
P.S. There was also a lesson to be learned from the original story about my big brother Joe scaring me with the picture. As even something that seemed so devastating at the time taught me something and made me stronger in the long run. So a huge shout out and thanks to my big bro Joe, who without I wouldn’t have this story (and plenty more)! You really were doing it for my own good. LOL.
So here is another lesson I learned by watching Vorto one day. If you don’t know, Tarantulas eat live crickets, so Jessica brings a couple home for Vorto and we put them in his glass enclosure, here is a picture of that.
And the cool thing about watching a tarantula catch his prey and eat it is pretty interesting and something that made me think of the newest way to build your internet business.
Vorto didn’t run around his home chasing the crickets like a crazed spider and getting all tired out, hoping to grab one or the other which ever he could get in his grasp and spitting his web this way and that. Kind of like newbie network marketers who will speak with anyone within a few feet of them, and just spew out all this information trying to get anyone into their new business.
What Vorto did was just pick a comfortable spot and he waited and waited and waited, for what seemed like a long time to me, but was really only a few minutes. But he waited until one of the crickets came up to him and still he didn’t snatch them up, he waited until they got a little closer, and closer still, until the crickets antennae were touching his legs and then the tiny hair on his legs (now I am not in anyway suggesting you let prospects touch your legs, this is just an analogy ok?). The cricket got closer and closer, getting more and more curious and when he was right underneath the spider, that is when Vorto moved faster than I could blink and he had the cricket and pulled him in. I couldn’t stay and watch after that, but here is my point. Vorto waited for the cricket to come to him and then he made his move, he didn’t chase. He even overlooked the first cricket that did that and waited until the bigger cricket showed up. And that is what the professional network marketer does.

A tarantula in network marketing!!??
Part I of II
A tarantula in network marketing, now that would be scary, but let’s put it into perspective. My oldest daughter has a tarantula, I know, I know, YUCK! But as I always say things happen for a reason and you can learn something from every experience. So here are the things I learned by Jessica (my daughter) having a tarantula.
The first is personal and may seem like it has nothing to do with network marketing, but it does. I was deathly afraid of tarantulas almost my entire life, since I can remember. It probably had something to do with my brother chasing me with a full blown poster of a tarantula until I was sitting in the corner crying hysterically. Do you have a visual? LOL. But anyway, I was scared of them and all spiders for that matter, but when Jessica brought this tarantula home, I faced my fear and held it. Only for a second mind you, but I did do it. I overcame my fear by telling myself it was silly to be scared it was not going to bite me and even if it did, I wouldn’t die. It might hurt a bit, but I would survive. Well I have become more accustomed to the tarantula – which by the way is named Vorto – Vorto is Otrov spelled backward and Otrov means poisonous in Croation. I know, and I held it right? Well since that day I have been even more courageous and I had it on my belly the other day. Felt really weird. Don’t get a visual of that please. Well my point is this. I could have continued to be scared and not held Vorto, but I made the decision to do it anyway. And that is a skill needed in any business but especially a home based online business in the network marketing industry.
If you are going to build a business and speak with people you are going to have to face some of your fears like rejection, communication, either written or oral, learning new skills, your friends and family possibly laughing at you, failure and there are plenty more. You are going to have to decide what is important to you and how badly you want it. You see I didn’t want to be afraid of the spider but something ingrained in me a long ago time ago, which served no purpose now was holding me back.
What is holding you back? What will it take to get you past it? It starts with a thought, so what are you thinking about?
A great book I would recommend is "Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway" by Susan Jeffers. Great for personal development and to move past your fears. My mentor when I first got started in this industry, and whom I still work with Aaron Rashkin, a successful entreprenuer and six figure income earner, recommended that book to me years ago, and it has proven to be an invaluable part of my library.

What Blogging Can Do For Your Business!
I have had my blog up and running since 2007. I recently started a new blog about one of the products I market, but prior to that I would post some thoughts every now and again, but didn't really know how to use blogging to build my business and generate leads.
Well since becoming involved in the 180daystogreatness program, one of the skills we have honed over the past six weeks, is blogging and why to blog.
I have learned that blogging is a great tool to have in your arsenal as well as other internet marketing tools like making and posting videos on youtube. Whatever viral method you are using to generate mlm leads, it is good for your business only if you know how to get your information at the top of the search engines. Learning how to make money blogging, is not a quick answer to your finances, but what it will do is build your credibility as a leader, someone that knows what they are doing and can show others how to make money with blog marketing. It shows those looking for the right leader and the right home business, that you are in this for the long haul.

Well since becoming involved in the 180daystogreatness program, one of the skills we have honed over the past six weeks, is blogging and why to blog.
I have learned that blogging is a great tool to have in your arsenal as well as other internet marketing tools like making and posting videos on youtube. Whatever viral method you are using to generate mlm leads, it is good for your business only if you know how to get your information at the top of the search engines. Learning how to make money blogging, is not a quick answer to your finances, but what it will do is build your credibility as a leader, someone that knows what they are doing and can show others how to make money with blog marketing. It shows those looking for the right leader and the right home business, that you are in this for the long haul. Consistency is key in any successful business and consistency in blogging is essential.

BRING IT ON!
Well, this is a very personal blog for me. I believe Mahatma Ghandi said "first they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win." So here is to winning, as I and the others in this programgo through these steps. Bring it on!
In working with the 180daystogreatness program, I have learned so much. I have learned about myself and what I am capable of. I have learned new skills on the internet to generate my own leads. I have learned to write articles. I have learned how to teach others to do the same. I have learned how to overcome rejection. I have learned how to believe in my product. I have learned how to believe in myself. I have learned how to set goals and work to accomplish them. I have learned how to work closely with others. And I have learned that when you move away from the status quo, there will be friction. I just didn't realize how personal it could be.
I knew 180daystogreatness, which was created by our Coach Nadira Haniff, was something unlike anything else out there. Nothing like it has ever been created, there may be some trying to duplicate it, but there will only be one original 180daystogreatness. This is the program that is making all the other so called "gurus" out there get a little scared. And contrary to what those so called "gurus" teach us, they are not embracing change, they are letting their egos get in the way, and they are throwing stones.
I will be the first to say that there are a lot of great programs, cds, training calls available where the average network marketer can learn some exceptional skills. Afterall, that is where I learned most of mine. The only problem is, I wasn't making the money I came to this industry to make, and each program was missing something. All the puzzle pieces did not fall into place.
So what Nadira Haniff created was a place to learn not only skillset, but mindset - which includes truly letting your ego go - and the program offers live personal coaching, so that those that are truly hungry to succeed, but just could not find the ongoing support, could feel at home here. Not judged, just held accountable. All the pieces to the puzzle, FINALLY, in one place.
What this program is, is a one-stop shop, to gain all the knowledge and skills to succeed, so of course there is going to be friction and stone throwing from the other top leaders and income earners in this industry. They feel we are taking money out of their pockets, rather than taking a closer look, asking direct questions and embracing the change that is taking place as I write this article.
The Winds of Change are Upon Us, are you ready to move with the Wind rather than struggle against it? Now is the time to take a closer look at where your business is and where you want it to be, and if what you have been taught isn't working, well, come be a part of history in the making......
Here's to not just to seeing you at the top, but running along beside you, holding your hand, picking you up when you fall, and getting to the top with you.......

180DAYSTOGREATNESS UPDATE
Wanted to give an update on our 180daystogreatness program. If you remember, 180daystogreatness is a program developed by Nadira Haniff, where mindset and skillset are brought together to create an explosion in your business. It doesn’t have to be a network marketing business, I believe it would work in traditional business as well.
Anyway, we started out with 25 people including Coach Nadira. And the concept is that we all come to the table with certain skills we can share with the group and we are also prepared, very prepared to learn the new skills necessary to earn a six figure income plus (depending on where you are starting) within 180 days. If we do not step up our game and participate and do the activities necessary we can be voted off. Kind of like survivor, internet style.
Everything has happened so fast, I don’t know when the first person was voted off, who was next, or who left because the demand and commitment were more than they were willing to do. But just 27 days into this journey we are down to 16 individuals. That’s nine people out of the game, and we aren’t even half-way through.
I don’t know about the rest of the group, but my first 27 days in this program has definitely yielded some new skills, some new business partners, some new retail sales and a great deal of confidence. No not ego, but confidence in my skills as a business person, a teamplayer and a leader.
So if you haven’t yet taken a look at our 180daystogreatness program, you might want to take a look just to see what it is about and if it is something you could use to move forward in whatever is holding you back in your business. Is it finding new customers, is it leadership skills, is it advertising, is it finding the right business partners?
Check us out and let us know. We would love to hear your comments and feedback. Who knows maybe we could get a voting system in place where those of you in our community have a say so on who stays and who goes. Yikes, what am I thinking.
To your success,
Theresa Giambrone

Network Marketing 101 Part III
Wow, I can’t believe we are at part three in our three part series on network marketing.
We have already discussed, researching for the right home business, choosing the right home business for you, and now we are going to learn about learning the skills necessary to become successful in your own home business.
Once you have done your research and you’ve chosen the company, now it is time to learn what those that have come before you, have learned. To shorten that learning curve, so that you can start making money quickly in network marketing, you are going to want to pay attention to your sponsor/leader, but you also want to do your own research online.
I know, it certainly seems like a lot of research to do, but it is almost like going to back to school or getting a new job. It takes time to learn the skills necessary. This is in fact a skills industry. So if you make yourself the promise to be here one year from today, I assure you, you are on the road to being a success in this industry.
Again, there are many variables in learning the skills necessary, but the most important is to pay attention and stay plugged into the team. What I mean by that is to attend live conference calls, attend local events, attend on as many training calls as you can, especially in the first 60 to 90 days. Don’t be afraid to call your sponsor to ask questions; especially if you are new to the industry,.
Don’t let attendance at the above events be your only guide. Good leaders will work very closely with you to see that you learn the skills necessary and know how to apply them properly. You will find your own flow as well and what works best for you and what doesn’t.
If you have specific questions, don’t hesitate to contact me direct. To learn more about what I am doing, visit any of the sites below.

Network Marketing 101 Part II
Well congratulations for sticking with me this far. That tells me that you are serious about finding the right company and getting started in your own home business, and potentially changing your life forever.
Touching on the three key ingredients needed they are: researching the different companies out there, making the right decision on which company is for you and last but not least learning the skills necessary to succeed.
In our last article we talked about researching all the different companies, today we are going to discuss choosing the right company for you.
How do you know if the company is right for you? First do your research. Find out how old the company is. What is the sales revenue? What are other people in the industry saying about this company? There will be a number of signs if this company is for you. The company will have intelligent and knowledgeable people in charge. They will have a product (preferably consumable) that you can stand behind and that you are passionate about sharing with others. There will be compensation plan that fits you and your goals. Then you need to find a leader within that organization that you can work with. You are in fact, going to become business partners with that person.
How do you get behind a product: You purchase the product and try it. How do you get passionate about it? You believe that the product, regardless of what it is, can truly help others. How do you find a leader that you can work with? Do some research on the internet; if you came upon someone’s website, Google their name and see how much they actually know about the industry and their company. If they haven’t yet contacted you, give them a call. You want to find a leader that will teach you the skills necessary to succeed.
There are other variables involved in choosing the right company for you, but I believe these are the three most important aspects.
Until the next issue, feel free to visit any of the sites below. And best to you on your search.

Researching home businesses
Well we ended our last story wondering how in today’s world someone, anyone, could research a home business, make the right decision of which home business to choose, and then most important learn the skills necessary to become a success working from home.
Before we get started on these we have to go back one step. Because really the first thing one needs to do is make the decision that a home business is what they want to do, not just a thought they are kicking around in their head, but a solid, YES, I want to work from home. For whatever reason, to spend more time with the kids, to pay off some bills, to buy a new car or a house. There a dozen or more reasons to get started, but your reason has to be strong, otherwise in all honesty, you probably won’t make it.
And here’s why, because in home business you are responsible for your success, not your upline, not the company, not your spouse, or your kids, or your parents and most certainly not the President of the United States (believe me, I have heard this one before). You will have to be responsible, disciplined, and self motivated.
But that is getting ahead of ourselves, check back later to learn about choosing the right company, or click on over to the sites below to see how our 180daystogreatness experiment is coming along and what he have learned from our Coach, Nadira Haniff, to date, or to see what company I made the decision to work with.

Networking in the 21st Century!
Network Marketing has been around for many years, and has been known by many names. How was the concept started? Well, the idea was to pay individuals (distributors) the money that would normally be used on advertising. The more people who purchased product from you the more money you made, and the company sold. The beauty was that if you could find other people to do the same thing you could not only make money on your efforts but theirs as well. Hence a new home business and free enterprise were born where the playing field is level and open to all those that actually took this seriously.
Over the years, there have been a lot of different names for network marketing, such as multi-level marketing, direct selling, word-of-mouth, and most familiar to those who knew nothing about it, is the “pyramid:. In today’s society we find lots of people asking if our business is a “pyramid scheme” based on the past of only a handful of companies that gave network marketing a bad name. What exactly is a pyramid in business? My definition and for others in the know a “pyramid” would be a corporate business where the owners make the most money, then a ceo or president, vice president, manager, asst. manager, secretary, receptionist, mail person.
Well you get the idea, my point is, the guy at the top makes all the money while the guy on the bottom of the pyramid doesn’t make much. That is definitely not the definition of network marketing as with this industry anyone coming in came make as much or as little as they choose. It is all up to the individual and the choices they make.
How can anyone in the 21st century who is looking to pay off some bills, pay for college, buy a house, work from home or make a fortune choose the right company, the right product, the right system and the right team?
To find out there are two things you can do. You can visit the website below or you can come back here periodically as I will be updating this story on a regular basis for the next 180 days as I, Theresa Giambrone am participating in a marketing experiment with 20 other people and Coach Nadira Haniff, that I believe will change the way we in the network marketing industry do business so that everyone that comes to the table can succeed.
Until next time…….

You can come back often to catch up on what is taking place in our group and with our lives as we do what is necessary, so that those that come after us will have a path to follow that will decrease their anxiety but increase their pocketbook and their sense of satisfaction. They will build belief in themselves and their capabilities to win in business. Too many people are afraid to try. Sometimes in life you just have to take a leap of faith and belief so hard in yourself and the people around you that the chance of failure is slim to none!
We have set up specific guidelines to be followed and any one of us, including our Call To Greatness Coach Nadira, can be kicked off if we don’t perform! We don’t want to lose the coach so this is going to be loads of fun but a truckload of work! None of us stand to benefit financially from the other - we are all independent business owners. What started as 25 is now down to 22 brave entrepreneurs who are ready to go the extra mile, and push to the finish line & bring home business gold! Let the games begin!

A MARKETING EXPERIMENT ~ Glimpse A Call To Greatness!
A Real Dose Of Intense Marketing For The Next 180- 200 Days!
Something phenomenal is taking place (a call to greatness let's say!). I am part of a select group of 25 working on devising a marketing plan/strategy for an incredible marketing experiment! The company is just about to launch a new skin nutrition product. One product. Top of line, green product, in tune with the environment, more skin nutrition than skin care. So a robust product. Established company. Solid track record. So those are the given parameters.
We have some variables as always. Our environment and economic climate in the USA is somewhat unstable at this time. As such, we will have to factor this into our marketing execution. So overall, some unfavorable economic times. But because of the internet we are now operating in more of a global market. Remember that the objective of every business is to churn a profit irrespective of the economic environment.
HERE'S THE EXPERIMENT. Our Business Coach Nadira Haniff has hand picked a group of 25 people. We are developing a marketing plan in the next few days. Now we are regular folks, just like you and I, distributors, home based business folks, with regular families, and with a lot of gusto and determination to win in business. None of us are advertising gurus or marketing gurus or anything of the sort. We all have our skills however. And we are not part of each other’s team. So we will not earn from the efforts of the others! And we are not paying the coach either!
Anyway continuing, HERE'S THE OBJECTIVE: with a defined marketing plan and a micro break down on each aspect of the game plan, execution is in a methodical, systematic, controlled manner (meaning no deviation from the plan except for fine tuning - we risk getting voted off the group!!). Each of these 25 distributors are aiming to add 100 new distributors to their team in the next 180 days, working within the defined marketing plan and keeping in sync with the team. This would give each of us the foundation not only to earn a really solid income but also gain the knowledge and application of knowledge, to duplicate this exercise and generate a steady flowing residual income.
Each day of this journey will be documented for the entire 180 - 200 days and later used as a tool. Plans, progress, results, fine tuning, fights (not too many I hope!), disagreements, any votes off are all part of the game! Videos will be posted online with, daily conversations and all the fun reality stuff! I am participating like everyone else and getting my hands dirtied and muddied! 100 distributors in 180 days here I come!
So, I would like to invite you to follow along with me and the gang on this journey for the next 180 - 200 days! Can we keep all 25 of these participants in sync and productive at the same time? Can they hit target? It will an incredible journey! You are invited to add any words of wisdom in marketing, planning & execution...the games begin shortly! Looking forward to your comments...
