How you know if you are stuck in a time capsule or even a cave when it comes to Marketing..



In today’s age and times if you are not technology savvy or computer savvy you are going to be left behind in the crowd. Or as I like to say the 97% slip stream. This is no different in the MLM industry. If you are using the old school ways of marketing offline ie. 3 feet rule, hotel meetings, and home parties and you aren’t seeing the results you’d hoped… you need to let some light into your cave and use the internet to accelerate your business out of the dark ages.


Ok we were told to build a list and check it twice.Don’t you think that sounds a bit like a fairy tale that comes around once a year with a jolly old man in a red suit. I felt that every One on One or Hotel Overview was like Xmas day and I would build up my prospects as if they were presents and when there was no presents under the tree I would ride the rollercoaster of emotions.


Luckily we are quick learners and I realised that you didn’t need to wait once a year for your presents to come. There was actually another way to this Industry to get into the profit land with upfront cash flow and a good level of presents (prospects) coming to me instead of me searching for them.


Let's take for instance Facebook, ahhhhh the wonderful world of Facebook. Here is a free tool, did you catch that I said free? This site is great for creating yourself a diverse pond to fish in. I'm sure we are all familiar with the term fishing poles. You want as many as you can out there to catch as many fish (prospects) as possible.


So let's do the comparison to fishing offline and fishing online with Facebook. If traditional ways of Network Marketing are working for you then that is awesome, but if you… like many others… are struggling, you want to listen up.


OFFLINE- You are out and about doing your 3 feet rule and in one day you might talk to 10 people. This is taking into consideration you are really good at this and you have the personality to do it. So you reached out to 10 people, all of them strangers that you know nothing about, so they could be a stud or a dud.


ONLINE(facebook)- In 10 minutes you could of talked to and struck up an initial relationship with at least 10 people. Not only did you do it in a fraction of the time you also made sure they were in your target market. If you are stuck in your cave when it comes to marketing the term target market might be new to you.


Let's look as this is in better light shall we? When you are prospecting offline you have no idea who you are talking to and what their goals are. You ask them a few general questions "Do you keep your career options open?" "Are you interested in a 6 figure residual income?" this does not qualify them as your target market. This industry is built on marketing and promoting and you are asking people that may have no experience in either to help you build your business.


Shift your thinking to online. You have positioned yourself in a pond with like minded individuals who are seeking the same common goal or opportunity as you are. Immediately you are speaking with prospects who have some sort of prior education or experience in the field.


I chose to use Facebook in this comparison because it is a huge free marketing tool ranked in the top 5 of free social media sites. Layla and I consistently generate 10 to 15 targeted leads daily just from Facebook alone. Now think, Facebook is just one of the 5 free social networking sites that we are using. If you could be bringing in 50+ new people to talk to every day, do you think you'd be in a somewhat different situation now?


In closing, if you're ready to evolve from the cave you've been living in and you want to know how to use the tactics of the top 3% .... please shoot us an email or visit our site.

Why the 97% stay broke while riding the "start up band wagon"

What the Start Up Companies Don't Want You To Know.

We have all seen the buzzzzzz about the newest companies and their AMAZING Prelaunch opportunities. The common misconception is that ONLY the people that got in at the beginning of Amway are making money right now.

Sure, if we were the first Distributors for Amway we'd be doing pretty good right now. But think of all the millionaires that the company has that were not there 50 years ago. The great thing about the Network Marketing business is it doesn't matter where you fall, everyone has the same product and the same opportunity...

The difference is YOU.

Residual Income is another one we hear thrown around. Build an organization that you can walk away from and still earn a PASSIVE RESIDUAL INCOME.

Well, with 9 out of 10 Start-Up companies never being seen again after their HUGE Prelaunches.... is this really possible?

I have seen many friends put 110% of their efforts into a prelaunch... bring everyone they know into it, and have it crumble under their feet within a year. What is even worse, is when they DO build a residual income and suddenly the compensation plan is changed and their goes their downline and their profits

So what's the answer?

Be weary of the latest and greatest start-up companies...

Do your research... find a company that is OLD enough so you know they are not going anywhere... but NEW enough so that it still is cutting edge.

Don't jump on the Prelaunch Bandwagon! Work on marketing your EXISTING business properly, because the problem is not the company or the comp plan.... it's all you.You have to learn to stand out in the crowd of thousands, how do I do that you say?

If you knew that 9 out of 10 planes would crash [the planes being every start-up prelaunched MLM company out there] would you rush on board and bring your family and friends with you?

BRANDING,

Start thinking of your business being YOU.

Mike Dillard for instance teaches "You Inc", if you dont for some reason know who Mike Dillard is we suggest giving your head a check and visiting the link below. Meaning anyone can have a company webiste and go out there and shout loud and long about there comp plan or there orac score but these people will get left behind in the MLM slip stream. Learn to create your own wave and stand out from the 97%, we can show you how to properly position yourself online and be the HUNTED instead of the HUNTER.

This actually happened....


We woke up... 8:57am... Turned on the Laptop...
Power Up.... Email Login....




$580.00 commission earned...
in 3 minutes of work!


So by now you have all heard the word "list" before and if you've done any research on the successful online marketing strategies you know how crutial this list is. It's not only important to get your list numbers up but also be interactive with the people in your list so that they truly feel you have VALUE to bring to them and their business.

Toby sent out one email to our list about the importance of Attraction Marketing, which was a concept first introduced by Mike Dilliard. Toby and I actually read his ebook about Magnetic Sponsoring in one night together. If you haven't already checked out his site go to:

http://viralurl.com/s/mvpmikedillard/

Because we offer value to our list, when we send out recommendations... they listen. Self Development and Training are the ONLY ways to take this business where you want it to go.

Inc. 500 - Fastest Growing Companies in America

The top story on the lips of network marketers is the recent publication of the Inc. 500. The elite status of our Primary Business has now put them in the the same category as Microsoft, Timberland, and Under Armour.



#1 in Food and Beverage
#3 in Revenue
#18 on the overal Inc. 500 list


If you know business, these numbers alone will impress you but even the Wall Street Journal was quoted saying that "They are perfectly positioned for exponential growth. I fully expect them to be the dominant leader in the category over the coming years." Now when does the Wall Street Journal ever have anything good to say these days?

A very smart and successful man explained it to us once...


"You can be the best jockey in the world but if you're on a losing horse... you will not win."

We have a winning horse and is proving it without a doubt.

Back Away from the Punch Clock - Step into the World of TIME FREEDOM

Do You Have Passion?

Toby and I truly believe that the real meaning of life is to love what you do and wake up every morning grateful that you can continue to do it. 90% of the people we know... don't have that. We are working on changing that one person at a time.

74% of the children in this country are being raised by someone OTHER than their parents.

We are building our business now so that we can be there for our children as they grow. So many kids these days lack "Present Parents". We want to build a business that 5 and 10 years down the line is going to be earning us a RISIDUAL income, whether we show up or not. Toby and I want to show you how to make this a reality in your life too, so you will never have to miss that winning kick that closed the deal at his championship soccer game, or see the look on her face because you couldn't make it to that dance recital because of a meeting that ran late.

The MOST Talked about Prelaunch to EVER Hit the UK - A MUST READ!!!


The Brits Are Sick of Amway, Avon, & MaryKay!

A company that has done over a Billion dollars in sales (80% of that being US sales) is going global and the buzz is getting louder and louder. The Brits have been waiting for a company to hit their shores that they could be passionate about! Selling soaps and lipsticks is perfectly okay but if you want to stand behind a company that is truly changing lives, the time is now.

This is THEE LARGEST prelaunch to ever hit that side of the ocean and people are signing up now! With a results driven ingredient, and a revolutionary new energy drink that is going to change the footprint of that 6 Billion a year industry, it's all about timing in business. The time is now.

We have some great friends in Scotland and England, since Toby was born and raised in Ayr, so we know that people are looking for a Plan B. I did a quick search on what Home Based Business opportunities are out there in the UK right now and I have to admit, the results were definitely nothing to make me jump out of my seat. A lot of online business offers that don't even mention a product.

Since our products are a FOOD and not a Drug, we can't make medical claims... however I can share with you my own personal stories. I was diagnosed with Scoliosis, which basically means my spine is curved like an "S". I had severe inflammation and back pain. I took 2 shots a day of this amazing product and I have felt amazing! A man on our team gave this juice to his mother, who had severe arthritis since he could remember as a child, and she is now no longer taking any athritis medication because she feels so great. So you can see why we are so passionate about this product, we've seen it work time and time again.

If you are a born leader and want to secure your position at the top of the UK organization, we are gathering sales leaders in the UK, Netherlands, and Poland right now. If you think you have what it takes to be passionate and lead a team to success, email us at

Leaders Unite!

it all started with music....


It was the sweet melodies that brought us together in the start.

Music is a shared passion between Tobias and I, and since the beginning we have been creating together.

People search their entire lives for their passion and in finding each other.... we have found the meaning of passion.



MUSIC + LOVE = PASSION

Even though the path was not always straight... love will find a way.
