“Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them.”

- William Shakespeare, Hamlet, Act III, Scene i (58-90)

Hamlet may not have been talking about network marketing, but his words do apply. Almost every network marketer has experienced the “slings and arrows” of the naysayers, those often well-meaning friends and relatives that stand in the way of our making an “outrageous fortune!” Experienced network marketers, clothed in the armor of past success, are less vulnerable to outside influences. The new distributor, however, is vulnerable, and that “sea of troubles” can act as a barrier to reaching their true potential.

What did the knights of old do to prevent an injury? That’s right – they armed themselves. Their armor was heavy and cumbersome, and they needed a squire to help them prepare for battle. Well, the same is true for your new distributors. While the armor they must use is less cumbersome than that of the knights, you must help them arm themselves for success. In other words, you must be their squire.

What do I mean by “arming for success?”

When a new distributor joins your network marketing organization, they are moving into an environment that demands strong armor. There are a lot of “slings and arrows” that can hurt their chances for success and create a sea of troubles — of doubt, disbelief, even failure.

As Rich Dad, Poor Dad author Robert T. Kiyosaki points out, most people in this world are afraid to experience success. They are held back by negative thinking, and consequently suffer the pain of mediocrity. Because they have not been armed for success, and are more focused on security and survival, they subject themselves to a life of servitude and poverty and being someone else’s employee.

Arm your new distributors from negative thinking and potential disaster. How? By understanding why so many people are negative about network marketing and the prospects of the success it can bring.

Let’s face it. There are a lot of people out there that do not want you to become successful. When you are successful, you point out the lack of success in their lives. When you take away any excuses they’ve been hanging onto and you force them to look at their lives as they really are, it makes them very uncomfortable. You’ve heard of the expression “Misery loves company.” Well, it’s true.

Doug Firebaugh, network marketing guru, calls it the “Unspoken Understanding,” which is simply the silent agreement that most people have with each other, namely “don’t mention my mediocre life, and I won’t mention yours.” Your success and the success of your new distributors, just points out the naysayers’ mediocrity.

Leaders help others. If you are going to be successful in network marketing, you must arm your new distributors against people who will try to convince them their business won’t work.  Show your downline you want them to be successful. Encourage them. Show them how the most successful network marketers have achieved their success, and teach them to model those attitudes, habits, and actions. Remind your distributors that they are the CEO of their lives. Arm them with the power of positive thinking so they don’t let others live their lives for them with their negative attitudes.

To paraphrase Hamlet, by opposing negative thoughts, we end them.

To Your Prosperity!

It’s that time once again my friends for the Top 10 quotes of the year.  Here are my favorite from the past year!   Feel free to leave a quote that you love in the comments!

10. ‎”My whole life I have never stopped dreaming. We all have dreams, but here is what is different about dreams today: Now is the time to dream big, because even during tough times like these, you can still make your dreams happen. I know there’s a lot of pressure outside, inside — economic pressure, social pressure. Remember, pressure can crack pipes. But it can also create diamonds.” – Russell Simmons

9.  ’Discipline yourself to do the things you need to do when you need to do them, and the day will come when you will be able to do the things you want to do when you want to do them!’ – Zig Ziglar

8. ‎”It doesn’t matter how many times you fail. It doesn’t matter how many times you almost get it right. No one is going to know or care about your failures, and neither should you. All you have to do is learn from them and those around you because… All that matters in business is that you get it right once. Then everyone can tell you how lucky you are.” - Mark Cuban

7.   ‘The simple act of commitment is a powerful magnet for help. The moment we commit and quit holding back, all sorts of unforseen people, events and circumstances will rise up and assist us.” – William James

6. ‎”My advice has always been to “think positive” and find fuel in failure….One day you might look up and see me playing a game at 50, don’t laugh. Never say never, because limits, like fears, are often just an illusion”. - Michael Jordan

5. ‎”Things may come to those who wait, but only the things left by those who hustle.” – Abraham Lincoln

4. ‘TRULY, “thoughts are things,” and powerful things at that, when they are mixed with definiteness of purpose, persistence, and BURNING DESIRE for their translation into riches, or other material objects” – Napoleon Hill

3. ‎”You never can tell what a thought will do in bringing you hate or love. For thoughts are things, and their airy wings are swifter than carrier doves. They follow the law of the universe, each thing creates it’s kind. And they are spread o’er the track to bring you back, whatever went out from your mind. - Ella Wheeler Wilcox

2. “Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be killed. Every morning a lion wakes up. It knows it must outrun the slowest gazelle or it will starve to death. It doesn’t matter whether you are a lion or a gazelle… when the sun comes up, you’d better be running!” – African proverb

1. ‘ When you are doing BIG things, you become a BIG target! No matter what is thrown at you, have faith and keep moving forward. Remember… it’s hard to hit a moving target!’ – Unknown

>>>>Check out my Top 10 Quotes of 2010<<<<

In the past year I learned about CPA Networks and even joined a few, but I did not make any money with them until I joined Zip Nada Zilch aka ZNZ.  ZNZ has several offer sites but the ones that I joined are ZNZ One and ZNZ Big Cash. I was was skeptical at first because this program promises to pay cash every day to your Pay Pal account with no out of pocket expense.  I have seen many programs on the internet that promise this but none of them really paid a significant amount.  I was already in the program for about a week but did not take it seriously until I saw a marketer that I have been following and that I have much respect for promoting the program.  I figured there must really be something to this thing!

What is CPA Marketing?

CPA Marketing stands for “Cost Per Action.”  Cost-Per-Action signifies you’ll be paid for every visitor that performs an action on your site, (usually completing a form) and thus turning into a lead for the business.  As a CPA Marketer, you are paid every time someone completes an action. Whether it be filling in their email, zip code, phone number, or address into a form.  You are essentially paid to get leads for companies.

Check out the video review!

Who is Zip Nada Zilch?

Zip Nada Zilch is an Advertising Brokerage Firm that has been contracted with various companies like Walmart, Discover Card, Go Daddy, and CreditReport.com (Just to name a Few)  to get leads for their free trial offers.  Zip Nada Zilch’s website was launched on July 14, 2007.  They have paid out over $2,000,000 to their affiliates in the 4 years that they have been online.

Why do Fortune 500 Companies Need Us?

The Challenge that big companies are having is that their advertising messages are being ignored by traditional means such as TV and Radio.  If your are watching TV and you have Tivo you can fast forward through the commercials or you may take a bathroom break or go to the kitchen to get something to eat.  If you are listening to the radio, you can switch the station or you may be listening to paid radio where you have no commercials at all.  Because of this large companies have turned to the internet to advertise.

What Would You and I Do?

First off let me say that this is not a sales position because there is nothing to sell.  There is also no out of pocket expense.  If you decide to work with Zip Nada Zilch (ZNZ), you would be considered a  Freelance Advisor.  You would be placing ads all over the internet.  Our goal is to get people in front of the companies’  free trial offers.  You may have done something like this before.  I recently did one for the Ninja Blender that I saw on an infomercial (Give me a break it was late at night and nothing was on).  I paid $14.95 for the first 30 days.  If I decide to keep it I will be billed for 2 more payments.

With ZNZ One, you will be paid $20 every time you refer someone to the site and they complete one of the offers.  You will be paid this whether or not they keep the product or service after the trial period.

How am I paid?

With ZNZ you can be paid everyday either by direct deposit to your Paypal or Alert Pay.  You can also be mailed a check if you prefer.

In Conclusion

From personal experience, I feel that ZNZ is a great program for anyone to make good money on the internet without having to spend any money.  You can make as little or much as you want to make depending on how hard you want to work.  It is perfect for the internet newbie that that wants to get their feet wet in internet marketing.  I also feel that it is good for the internet pro that is looking for a funded proposal that will assist him or her in building their primary business.  I give Zip Nada Zilch my highest recommendation for individuals who want to have a fair chance to make good money from home quickly.

When I first started marketing on the internet, I had no clue what to do.   Everyone kept telling me that I need a nice looking website, to throw some affiliate programs on it, advertise at free classifieds pages, and watch the money roll in. Easy money, right? Yeah right!

“I don’t need anyone to show me how to do this. It shouldn’t be hard at all. Actually, it should be a walk in the park.” Many people probably think like that. So they advertise here and there. Free classifieds. Free advertising. Maybe some forum posting every day. Free traffic, right?

A few days go by. Then a few weeks go by and I made about $30 in sales in one month. I thought that if I continued what I was doing, maybe a miracle will happen.

Not so……

It so very true that the online work at home arena is highly competitive. If you are doing the same thing and keep getting the same results over and over again, not only are you killing your potential for online success, but you are allowing other competitors to pass you by. The only thing that you need to do is to stop and find someone who is already succeeding with their online business. Become like an investigator. Investigate what they do EXACTLY on a daily basis that created that wealth for them.

Here are a few good pointers on what you can do to succeed online:

1) Start Getting Educated……

Again, find someone who is very successful online and see what they are doing on a daily basis that creates their success. Do some detailed research online as to what methods and techniques are working for them and others. You can not succeed if you keep associating yourself with people who aren’t successful online. So you need to take yourself by the hands and start to associate with successful online friends.

2) You need an Auto-responder…..

Before I go into explaining this subject, it is important that you know that you will want to work with an opt in email subscribers who will come to your site and give you their personal permission to send them periodic emails. What you will not want to do is to buy email subscribers. If you do buy them and send them your emails, then this can kill you and your online reputation.

Having and opt-in email list will allow you to free up lots of your time because your prospects will be receiving messages from you periodically and automatically. The nice thing about email marketing is that instead of you having to call them each time you want to promote something, which will take you forever, your auto-responder system will be working for you while you go out and have fun.

Imagine having an opt in list of 10,000 subscribers. If you were to call each one of them to promote one of your programs, think how long it will take you to reach all of them. It would be impossible for you. With email, you can contact them all in a matter of a few seconds or minutes. You write one email and hit the “submit” button, and you are all done.

“If I don’t get an auto-responder and email subscribers, will this cut my chances of succeeding online?”

I am not saying that it will, but if you do get one, your income will just keep growing all the time as your subscribers do.

3) Find a mentor

After you find someone who is very successful online, email them and tell them that you will want to work with them one on one if it is possible. Don’t try going into their training thinking that you know it all. Listen and follow each guideline that they are recommending to you.

This person will be your mentor. Your coach and most of all, your friend.

By stepping out and trying a proven way to make money online, you will begin to see that you too can make a nice income online. And the best advice that I can also give you is to never ever give up. A lot of people are making nice incomes online and so can you. Believe in yourself and you will succeed.

Nothing gets you in the right mindset like attending a live event!  When I attended the very first event put on by My Lead System Pro (MLSP)  ”Live the Dream Event” in Las Vegas, NV last year, it elevated my business to another level.  Not only did we get to listen to the speakers on stage, but we also had break out sessions with each speaker where they gave out invaluable nuggets and even answered questions from the audience.  We didn’t just work hard but we played hard too!  There was the VIP reception, party, and dinner where we were able to speak candidly in a relaxed setting with the speakers and other attendees at the event.

One of the biggest take aways that I got from Live the Dream 2010 was that the leaders that I was and still am following online are ordinary people.  The are not super human that are doing things that  everyone else is not able to do. The difference is  that took the time to learn their craft, they took action, and they stayed consistent.  I have to admit though that I was a little star struck when I saw some of the leaders that I had been following online.  After speaking with and even interviewing some of them though, I found out that they were just like me and that I could accomplish the very same things that they were doing if just took the advice that they were giving me and stayed consistent.

MLSP’s “Live the Dream II”  will be in Orlando, FL at the Walt Disney World resort and it promises to be even more exciting and life changing than the first.  We have an awesome line up of 15 speakers that include  Tracey Walker, Ray Higdon, Mark Hoverson, Daegan Smith and,  Raymond Fong & Ferny Ceballos just to name a few.

Why should you attend Live the Dream II?  Well here are a few reasons below:

*You may get that one nugget that will add $100,000 or more to your bottom line in 2011 or 2012.

*You may find that business partner that will help you build a million dollar business.

*You will get to meet the leaders that you have been following online.  You will get to add your own personal devlopment bank and be able to share more with others.

*You will get to be around other like minded individuals who will help you keep believing in what you are doing in your home business.

*You will be away from naysayers for 48 hours of your life and be in a positive atmosphere which will help you develop your entrepreneurial mindset.

*You missed the 1st Live the Dream event and you are still kicking yourself for it!

There are so many reasons to attend Live the Dream II and little if no reasons to miss it.  Attending live events, especially this one is guaranteed to elevate your business to the next level.  Don’t miss it this year!  Get your ticket now!

If you are taking the time to read this review of Lindt RSVP then you must be a chocolate lover and thinking about becoming a distributor with the company.  I commend you on doing your due diligence.  In this review I will cover the company, products, compensation plan, and whether or not Lindt RSVP is a good home business opportunity.    I also want to state that I am not a distributor with  Lindt RSVP so can feel confident that this a true third party review.

Well what chocolate lover doesn’t know who Lindt is?

Compensation Plan/Business Opportunity

The starter package for Lindt chocolates is $99.  You can make 20-35 percent on your personal sales depending your personal and team sales levels for the month.  In order to join as a representative you must be sponsored by a current distributor.  If you don’t know one then you can request to be contacted by one on the Lindt RSVP company website.

Is Lindt RSVP a good Home Business Opportunity?

With Americans consuming 2.8 billion pounds a year of chocolate, joining Lindt RSVP seems like it would be a good move.  The company has a solid reputation and high quality products.  I was not able to find any information on the leadership of the Lindt RSVP division.  This is the only con I see because you want to be with a company that has experience in the network marketing industry.  If you do join you will need a way to generate leads once you have exhausted your friends and family list.  I recommend that you use an attraction marketing system to help you find more people to talk to and to be able to make money even when prospects say no to your business.  If you are able to brand yourself and learn the offline and online marketing techniques for your home business then you are bound to be successful.

When you work your own home business it is very important to have the right mindset.  I know personally because many of my friends and family do not believe that you can make a full time income with network marketing. Most people have a job mentality and do not feel that they could make money any other kind of way.  Because of this is very important to keep your mind conditioned for you to be successful in your network marketing business.

One way to do this is to read books about network marketing.   As a network marketer it imperative that you continue to educate yourself.  Don’t worry you do not have to back to school!  There are many books and courses that you can take on your own that will help you in your business.  Below is a list of my top 3 books that new network marketers should read.  Even if you are a veteran network marketer these books are good to read or if you have read them already then read them again.  You are bound to learn something that you missed the first time around!

Here is the list:

1.
Your First Year in Network Marketing: Overcome Your Fears, Experience Success, and Achieve Your Dreams! – by Mark Yarnell and Renee Reed Yarnell – This book is crucial for new network marketers and for those that have gone past their first year but still have not quite figured it out yet. In this book you will learn about battling rejection, avoiding depression, handling prospects, supervising recruits, and managing time. Reading this book will save you a whole lot of sleepless nights because it give you a heads up on what to expect in your business.

2.
Magnetic Sponsoring by Mike Dillard – This book changed how I look at sales and network marketing.  This book teaches you how to draw prospects to you rather than you chasing them down.  You will also learn how to target people that are looking  for an mlm opportunity rather that deal with people that have no interest at all.  Magnetic Sponsoring shares with you the importance of creating a brand of yourself by utilizing online and offline marketing techniques which make you become the hunted instead of the hunter.

3.
The Business of the 21st Century by Robert Kiyosaki , Kim Kiyosaki, and John Fleming – In this book Robert Kiyosaki explains why the old advice of ”get a good education, find a good job, work hard for forty years, invest in stocks and real estate, etc.” — no longer works in the Information Age.  Kiyosaki also shows why network marketing is one of the best ways to make a high income with such a low investment especially in the current economic situation.  This is a great read that puts the industry in perspective without all of thy hype that usually goes along with it.

These are just a few of the books that I believe that new network marketers should start off with.  Heaven knows that there are plenty more to read but these 3 provide a good foundation for the someone new to the industry. I know you may be thinking that you are too busy to read but try to fit in just an hour a day.  Maybe in the morning before work on on your lunch break.  Educating yourself will help you keep your healthy entreprenurial mindset and also help you to be a better leader for your team.

There is so much noise in the market place about join this company and join that company. So many offers come across my desk everyday. I see and hear things like – “Make 25,000 in 30 Days!” or “Make $10,000 with no investment!” or “Get your position while we are in pre-launch!” or “Ground Floor Opportunity!” and the list goes on and on. It can be very confusing to someone new to network marketing. You can’t join and quit your mlm every month or every week. You will never make any money.

No matter what company you choose, always look for the following key qualities that the company you choose should have.

1. The Product – Can your product stand alone outside of your network marketing company at the exact same price point? For example would you buy a $40 bottle of juice from the grocery store? Would you purchase the product even if you were not in your network marketing company or are you just buying because it’s auto shipped to you? Would you use the product even if there is no comp plan attached to it? Do you truly believe in your product?

2. The Team – Is your upline doing internet marketing or a combo of online and offline. Is your team there to truly train you or do they just sign you up and let you sink or swim. Your team support is going to be essential for your success.

3. The Marketing – Does the company allow you to market on the internet? Would you be surrounded by people who market the way that you do? Is you company or team teaching you how to market or are they just telling to do a memory jogger list?

4. Ownership or Management – You have to do careful research on the company leaders. Are they just a bunch of reps who got together and started an MLM company without having experience? Does the management of the company have previous experience running other companies? Does the management embrace online and offline marketing?

5. Compensation Plan - Is it totally built on upfront bonuses? Does the comp plan cut off at a certain level? Do you have to donate your first two to your upline? Are you only getting a dollar a month for each person you bring in?

The are just five key areas that you should look at when you choose a primary network marketing company. So in order to navigate through all of the noise out there, just ask yourself the questions above and I am sure that you will choose the company that is right fit for you!
