So, you have done all the research and you have found a great money making program. It's ground floor and you are counting your earnings in your sleep. You can hardly stand it, you are going to be rich!
You pour over the marketing plan, review the comp plan- check out the product or products. You are going to know this backwards and forwards. There will not be a question that you can't answer. You will know everything about this that there is to know.
3 weeks go by and you are still going over everything now for the third time- after all you want to be thorough. You want to be comfortable with everything. After all that what it is all about, you don't want to make any mistakes.
2 weeks later you quit. It doesn't work- it's too hard, nobody wants to join. WHAT HAPPENED?
You did not take action!
You were too concerned with all the details that the most important thing passed you by. You must take action. Action = Success, there is no other way to put it.
This goes for those who have not even gotten into a program yet, but have looked at 1000 different ones and just wants to find the right one.
You must take action. I can guarantee you one thing- if you don't take action you will not succeed!
To Great Success,

All Network Marketing Companies Are Not Created Equally
by Joseph Demasi
Did you know that every year over 500 new MLM/Network Marketing Companies are started. Within a 2 year period over 90% will fail. 5% will be treading water and the remaining 5% will last over 3 years. Can people make money? Yes. Those that get in first. The ones that get in near the end, well they lose and MLM/Network marketing gets another bad mark.
Did you know that in the US 90% of the businesses that are started on a yearly basis fail within the first 3 years. It is hard to run a business these days. It is very important to choose carefully when you start a business.
There are really 7 critical elements that a MLM/Network Marketing company needs to give you the best chance for success.Did you know there is a such thing as MLM Minimum Wage? That is when you are working like a dog to make $200-$300 a month. Is that any way to live? Of course not, we all want to work less, not more in our home based businesses.
What are the 7 things you should look for?
1. Unique Products: Products must serve multiple different Market Categories, Products must be unique enough to get Patents, and the Products have to serve the Masses. There is a problem if the company has only a few products or product lines. The more the better. Are the products something you will use regardless of the business opportunity? This is very important.
2. Company Stability: The ability to give you long-term business and financial security, based on their company and business history. Minimum 10 to 20 years using the network marketing as the primary method of distribution of products. This way the company has been proven and has survived the test of time.
3. Marketing System: The system must be Simple, Duplicatable and Proven successful for the average part-time person (NO SELLING). Can anyone plug into it and be successful? We are not talking about referring someone to a corporate website.
4. Company Management: Must be led by already Successful Leaders in Business with a Vision for the Future Growth. What kind of experience do the leaders have? Are they successful business people with a proven track record of success?
5. Global Reach: Must be groundfloor in their Global Expansion. Are they in every country already or are they in a few countries, but with plans for global expansion? You want a groundfloor global opportunity.
6. Compensation & Incentives: Maximize your income based on your efforts. Must payout at least 50% of Sales, must offer Unlimited Depth within compensation plan, must offer Fast Start Bonuses, must offer other Rewards and Recognition, you must be able to achieve $10,000/month true residual with less than 500 people in the organization. Do you know that with the average network marketing company you need over 1800 people in your organization to make $10,000 per month residual income.
7. Pay-It Forward: Does the company Pay-It Forward to the Masses. They must give back globally what they are taking out. The company's vision is to make an Impact on the World in a Positive Way. Are they a recognized leader in this area? They must care about the masses that they serve.
When choosing a company to align yourself with, make sure it is not just about the product. You may have heard the hype of the latest and the greatest product that literally sells itself. Let's be honest - no product sells itself. If it did, the company would not need you.
The bottom line is to be educated about the process and the company. This site will give you good information about choosing a company:

Has Anyone Ever Heard Of Donald Trump?
Of course you have. Have you been in a cave for the past 2 years? I think he is well known across the globe, especially with his hit TV show "The Apprentice".
Donald Trump knows that success begins in your own mind. As we kick off 2007 I'd like to offer you his thoughts on success, taken from his new book, Trump 101.
-"Ask yourself whether you're doing what you want and what is right for you."
-"Be positive every day. If you're not, no one will think you can succeed."
-"Believe in yourself, exude confidence, and get in your competitor's way. Project yourself into their picture and upset their status quo."
-"Break loose from your comfort zone by moving forward with the power and momentum that positive thinking creates."
-"Zap negative thoughts and replace them with positive ones. Whatever energy you expend will build the positive stamina that is vital for success."
-"Ignore the expectations of others. Stand up to your friends, family, teachers, colleagues and those who think that they know what's best for you. Plug into your own energy."
I thought that was great advice from him. You can't argue with a man that is worth over 2 billion $. The main focus for you should be maintainig focus on your goal and not letting anyone steal your dream. Always be positive and kill the negative or you will not succeed.
To Great Success,

ATTITUDE
One thing I love about a blog is getting you the information that I find very worthwhile. I found this quote and thought I would pass it on. This is so relevant in our business:
Attitude
by Charles Swindoll
"The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company...a church...a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past...we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what hapens to me and 90% how I react to it. And so it is with you...we are in charge of our Attitudes."
And so it goes. Your attitude will have a lot to say about determining your success or failure. If you understand nothing else about this, or any other, business- Understand that!
