Starting Something New

Today is the last day of January 2009! I started working on my emarketing plan almost two months ago. It has been hard. It is hard when you are actually inventing the wheel. Notice I didn't say I was re-inventing the wheel.

PPL is traditionally sold via traditional network marketing. That means selling to your friends, family, and neighbors. It also means going to weekly meetings. I have a problem. I'm 180 miles from the nearest meeting and I've already sold PPL to all of my friends and family. So what do you do when you're out of prospects and you're in a place where the "system" wont work for you?

You have to create a new system. I've been around long enough to know better than trying to re-invent the wheel. But there are times when it needs to be re-invented!

I know the new system will work. The new system is actually just using new tools to do the same old job. You have to talk to lots of people. Some will - most wont!

What really has me excited is that the Internet has totally changed everything. There are literally ten's of thousands of people looking for our business opportunity. We have a tremendous product - great price - wide open market. The future looks great.

I'm ready to get started. Tomorrow is Super Bowl Sunday - I'll wait and get started on Monday.

Grand kids have been here for the weekend and we have had a great time. Today has been a success.

Go Cardinals!

The Dream

If you had a choice between taking $1 million dollars or penny and having it doubled everyday for 30 days which one would you choose?

Value of a Penny Doubled Everyday For 30 Days

Day 5 = $0.32
Day 10 = $10.24
Day 15 = $327.68
Day 20 = $10,485.76
Day 25 = $335,544.32

Day 27 = $1,342,177.28
(Exceeds $1 million!)

Day 30 = $10,737,418.24

Did you notice that in the last 3 days the value of the penny grew from more than $1 million to ten times that amount?

In MLM it takes time before you can see anything happening. But given enough time there will be wealth. A very successful friend of mine recently told me that in MLM you get rich by doing the business badly and never quitting.

Isn't that just the opposite of what most of us do? We focus on being perfect, but then we'll listen to someone and get discouraged and then we quit. I know I've quit MLM at least 10 times.

Hello world!

This blog is a journey. But at the heart of this journey is a dream. It is a real dream and there are those who have achieved this dream. The dream is building a MLM business. There are 100 people who will tell you it is impossible for every 1 person who will never give up on their dream.

The secret - don't listen to the 100 dream thieves! Be the 1 who never quits.

I hope your journey will be "A Moveable Feast" and that you will never quit. Ironically, Ernest Hemmingway, did the ultimate quit - he blew his brains out. He cared too much about what the world might think of him. Ernest Hemmingway was a coward. Cowardice will always cost you your life.
