		</div>
<h2><span style="font-size: medium; color: #800000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Without a <em>funded proposal</em>, are you a sucker?</span></h2>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">I realized pretty early on in this game, that buying leads and cold calling was a complete waste of time.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">At least it was for me.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">I&#8217;m not a natural salesman, and I&#8217;ve never been able to &#8216;talk someone into the business.&#8217;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Plus, I&#8217;m a pretty shy guy.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">So I was glad when one of my earliest mentors gave me this piece of advice:</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div class="bluebox   aligncenter" style="width: 500px; border-width: 3px; border-style: solid;">
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;"><em>&#8220;Only suckers buy leads. If you want to </em><em>make it in this game, learn to generate </em><em>your own leads using a Funded Proposal system.&#8221; </em></span></strong></p>
</div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">So I took his advice.<span id="more-4457"></span></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Besides, I&#8217;d rather work with the people who already <strong>want to work with me</strong>, that&#8217;s why getting good at marketing is key.</span></p>
<h3><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;">If you&#8217;ve ever bought leads, you&#8217;ll know what I mean, you need a funded proposal.</span></h3>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">You call them up, and 99% of the time they have no recollection of filling out any form requesting more info about a business.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">In fact&#8230; I think most network marketers who buy leads would be SHOCKED if they knew where they were coming from.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">I was once at a private party with some of the top earners in our  industry, and I met a guy who owned one of those lead broker companies.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;">After a few beers, I asked him straight out:</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">&#8220;Dude, level with me.  Where do you guys get all those leads you&#8217;re selling people?&#8221;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">And his answer shocked me.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">He told me most of them came from the CPA networks (cost per action), and explained it like this:</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div class="bluebox   aligncenter" style="width: 500px; border-width: 3px; border-style: solid;">
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">Basically, the lead broker pays an affiliate every time someone fills out a form and leaves a phone number.</span></strong></p>
</div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">And the affiliates, being money hungry, start thinking to themselves&#8230;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">&#8220;Gee.  I wonder if we could get more people to fill out these forms if we offered them the chance to win something, like an ipod or something&#8230;&#8221;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">So along comes your future &#8216;lead,&#8217; who fills out the form to try and win the ipod&#8230;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">&#8230; and then 3 weeks later, some poor network marketer who&#8217;s just getting started calls them and says:</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div class="bluebox   aligncenter" style="width: 500px; border-width: 3px; border-style: solid;">
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">&#8220;Hi, recently you filled out a form requesting some more information  on working from home&#8230;&#8221;</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">If they&#8217;re lucky, they get a polite &#8221;Sorry, not interested.&#8221;</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">If they&#8217;re unlucky (like I often was), they&#8217;ll get a mouthful of choice adult phrases.</span></strong></p>
</div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">But you know what amazes me about all this?</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">There are still trainers in our industry who teach this stuff.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">They tell people to go and buy leads and &#8217;just keep it simple.&#8217;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Well it may be simple, but it sure as heck isn&#8217;t effective.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">How else do you explain the 97% failure rate in this industry?</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Now I&#8217;m not saying that you can&#8217;t build a business with cold calling.</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">You can.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;">But if you&#8217;re like me, and you&#8217;re not a natural born salesperson, and you don&#8217;t like the idea of being rejected 99 times before you get a &#8216;yes,&#8217; it can be hard.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">It can be very hard indeed.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">If you continue to buy junk leads and cold call, you&#8217;re only making things harder than they need to be.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">It&#8217;s much, much easier to build your business by generating your own leads using a funded proposal system.</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Leads who actually want to hear from YOU, and about your business.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Not some random stranger who filled out a form looking to win an ipod last year.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">The best leads money can buy are those who are already searching for you.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">If you&#8217;ve built up a brand around your name, and you&#8217;ve achieved &#8216;guru status&#8217; then these are the leads you focus on.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">But if you&#8217;re not yet a &#8216;guru,&#8217; then the 2nd best leads money can buy, are those already searching for your network marketing company.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Chances are, there&#8217;s someone right at this moment doing their research on your company, and looking </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">for a mentor.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;">Are they going to find you?</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Or will they find someone else?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">If your marketing strategy does not currently target these people, you are missing out big time.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><a href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/recruitonautopilot/brighttip/enblog"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-4417" title="How To Build A Funded Proposal" src="http://virgilcook.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/funded_proposal_cdcover_01.jpg" alt="How To Build A Funded Proposal" width="256" height="256" /></a>But before you target them, you need to have your own <a title="Funded Proposal Workshop" href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/recruitonautopilot/brighttip/enblog" target="_blank">funded proposal</a>.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">If you don&#8217;t know what a funded proposal is&#8230; then, you really, really need to attend my online workshop in the next few </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">nights:</span></p>

<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">If you already are using your own <strong>funded proposal</strong>&#8230; but you&#8217;re still not sponsoring 20 &#8211; 30 new reps per month, then you&#8217;re doing something wrong.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">You also need to come along to my <a title="Register for my Funded Proposal Workshop" href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/recruitonautopilot/brighttip/enblog" target="_blank">funded proposal workshop</a>, because I&#8217;ll explain how I do it in my own business, and how you can too.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">You&#8217;ve got two options in this business:</span></p>

<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>The Easy Way:</strong></span>  You use your <span style="text-decoration: underline;">funded proposal</span> system and have your prospects &#8216;apply&#8217; to work with you.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">I spent my first year doing things the hard way, and got no sales.  Not one.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">I spent my 2nd and 3rd year doing things the easy way, and life has never been better.</span></p>

<h2><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium; color: #800000;">One of our most common problems is procrastination. </span></h2>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">We know what we want to do and should do. But still we end up spending hours upon hours doing “easier” work or escaping via TV, blogs, or music.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Now, there is nothing wrong with a little escape from time to time, but if you <strong><a href="http://virgilcook.com/op/funded-proposal-workshop-squeeze/" target="_blank">procrastinate</a></strong> too much, you will not get the most important things done, and you will also send yourself into negative spirals where your self-esteem plummets, and you spend your days in a vague, negative funk.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;"><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">So what can you do?<span id="more-4443"></span> </span></strong></span></p>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline; color: #800000;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Here are 7 tips to help you to stop procrastinating and start living your life more fully.</span></span></h3>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;">1. Stop thinking, Start doing.</span></strong></p>
<div class="bluebox   aligncenter" style="width: 500px; border-width: 3px; border-style: solid;">
<p>“To think too long about doing a thing often becomes its undoing.”<br />
Eva Young</p>
</div>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">A bit of planning can certainly help you achieve what you want to achieve. A lot of planning and thinking tends to have the opposite effect.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">You think and think, and try to come up with “the perfect plan”. A plan where you don’t have to make mistakes, where you will never be rejected, where there will be no pain or difficulties. Such a thing does of course not exist. But as long as you work on that plan you can protect yourself.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;">2. Don’t blow a task out of proportion.</span></strong></p>
<div class="bluebox   aligncenter" style="width: 500px; border-width: 3px; border-style: solid;">
<p>“If you want to make an easy job seem mighty hard, just keep putting off doing it.”<br />
Olin Miller</p>
</div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div class="bluebox   aligncenter" style="width: 500px; border-width: 3px; border-style: solid;">
<p>”Putting off an easy thing makes it hard. Putting off a hard thing makes it impossible.” George Claude Lorimer</p>
</div>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">By over thinking and putting things off you are not only trying to protect yourself from pain. You also make mountains out of mole hills. The quotes above are so true, it is not even funny. The more hours and days you put something off, the worse it grows in your mind.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Because you are dwelling on it, it expands in your mind, and since you are putting it off, you are probably thinking about it in a negative way. This turns a little thing into something very big, a horrible beast that is threatening to ruin your life.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">So plan a little and then take action.</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Often you don’t even have to plan, you have been there before and you know what needs to be done. So stop thinking and just do it no matter how you feel and what you think. How you feel right now changes as quickly as the weather, so it’s not the perfect guidance system for anything. And you don’t have to obey what it says (since it’s not chains made of iron). You can just do what you know is right anyway.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;">3. Just take the first step.</span></strong></p>
<div class="bluebox   aligncenter" style="width: 500px; border-width: 3px; border-style: solid;">
<p>“You don’t have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.”<br />
Martin Luther King, Jr.</p>
</div>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">When you start to look too far into the future, any task or project can seem close to impossible, and then you shut down because you become overwhelmed, and start surfing the internet aimlessly instead. That is one of the reasons why it is good to plan for the future, but then to shift your focus back to today, and the present moment.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span style="color: #800000;">Then you just focus on taking the first step, today.</span> That is all you need to focus on, nothing else. By taking the first step you change you mental state from resistant to, <span style="color: #800000;">“hey, I’m doing this, cool”</span>. You put yourself in a state where you become more positive and open. A state where you may not be enthusiastic about taking the next step after this first one, but you are at least accepting it. And so you can take the next step. And the next one after that.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">The thing is, you can’t see the whole staircase anyway, and it will shift and reveal itself along the way. That’s why the best of plans tend to fall apart, at least a bit, as you start to put it into action. You discover that your map of reality doesn’t look like reality.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;">4. Start with the hardest task of your day.</span></strong></p>
<div class="bluebox   aligncenter" style="width: 500px; border-width: 3px; border-style: solid;">
<p>“Do the hard jobs first. The easy jobs will take care of themselves.”<br />
Dale Carnegie</p>
</div>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Maybe you have an important call to make that you also fear might be uncomfortable. Maybe you know you have gotten behind on answering your emails and have a big pile to dig into. Maybe you have the last five pages of your paper to finish.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;">Whatever it may be, get it out of your way the first thing you do.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">If you start your day this way, you will feel relieved. You will feel relaxed and good about yourself. And the rest of the day – and your to-do list – tends to feel a lot lighter and easier to move through. It’s amazing what difference this one action makes.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;">5. Just make a decision. Any decision.</span></strong></p>
<div class="bluebox   aligncenter" style="width: 500px; border-width: 3px; border-style: solid;">
<p>“In a moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing to do, the next best thing is the wrong thing, and the worst thing you can do is nothing.”<br />
Theodore Roosevelt</p>
</div>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">We feel bad when we sit on our hands and don’t take action because it’s unnatural. The natural thing for us to do is to be a decisive human and take action.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">When you <a href="http://virgilcook.com/op/funded-proposal-workshop-squeeze/" target="_blank">procrastinate</a>, you want to do something but you don’t take the action. You then become conflicted within.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">What you do always sends signals back to you, about who you are. Sure, doing affirmations where you say to yourself that you are confident can help you, but taking the confident actions you want to take over and over again is what really builds your self confidence and self-image of you being a confident person. When you <em><a href="http://virgilcook.com/op/funded-proposal-workshop-squeeze/" target="_blank">procrastinate</a></em> you lower your self esteem and send signals back to yourself that you are a kind of lame and indecisive person.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;">6. Face your fear.</span></strong></p>
<div class="bluebox   aligncenter" style="width: 500px; border-width: 3px; border-style: solid;">
<p>“Procrastination is the fear of success. People procrastinate because they are afraid of the success that they know will result if they move ahead now. Because success is heavy, carries a responsibility with it, it is much easier to procrastinate and live on the “someday I’ll”, philosophy.”<br />
Denis Waitley</p>
</div>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">I think this is true. It’s easier to live on that “someday…” thought. It’s harder to just take action. To risk looking like a fool. To make mistakes, stumble and not avoid that pain. To take responsibility for your own life.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">The easier choice can come with a sense of comfort, with a certain level of success, pangs of regret for all the things you never dared to do and a vague sense of being unfulfilled. You wonder about what would have happened if you had taken more action and more chances.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">The harder choice gives you, well, who knows? But it will sure make you feel more alive.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;">7. Just finish it.</span></strong></p>
<div class="bluebox   aligncenter" style="width: 500px; border-width: 3px; border-style: solid;">
<p>“Nothing is so fatiguing as the eternal hanging on of an uncompleted task”<br />
William James</p>
</div>
<div class="bluebox   aligncenter" style="width: 500px; border-width: 3px; border-style: solid;">
<p>“Much of the stress that people feel doesn’t come from having too much to do. It comes from not finishing what they started.”<br />
David Allen</p>
</div>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Not taking the first step to start accomplishing something can make you feel bad. But not finishing what you have started can also leave you in a sort of negative funk. You feel fatigued or stressed and sometimes you don’t even know why. It’s like someone zapped your inner power.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">If that is the case, go over tasks and projects that you are currently involved in. Is there something there you know you want to finish but, haven’t yet? Try to get that finished as soon as you can and you will start to feel a whole lot better.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Just be careful. Don’t think you have to finish everything you started. If a book sucks, read something else. Using this as an excuse to quit something that feels hard or unfamiliar is not a good idea. But there is no law that says that everything has to be completed either.</span></p>

<p>If you&#8217;re in network marketing/direct sales, then one thing you might notice, is that the people who become overnight successes, are usually very good with people, and are also very comfortable with selling.</p>
<p>They&#8217;re the people who will get up on stage at events, and have no hesitation speaking to a room full of people.</p>
<p>And the best ones <em>ooze charisma</em>&#8230; they attract others to them like a flame attracts moths.</p>
<p>The problem for me (and a lot of others), when I got started, is <em>I wasn&#8217;t one </em><em>of them.</em></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">I was always the kid at high school, who&#8217;d try to blend in, and not get noticed.</span></strong></p>
<p>And, I carried that shyness into my twenties&#8230;</p>
<p><a href=" https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/recruitonautopilot/brighttip/enblog"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-4417" title="How To Build A Funded Proposal" src="http://virgilcook.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/funded_proposal_cdcover_01.jpg" alt="How To Build A Funded Proposal" width="256" height="256" /></a>So what do you do, when you&#8217;ve just turned 62 years old, you&#8217;ve invested your entire life savings into a direct sales business, and now you&#8217;re expected to go prospect strangers?<span id="more-4409"></span></p>
<p><em>You struggle through it painfully.</em></p>
<p>And after 9 months of persisting with it, doing all the things my upline was  telling me (approaching friends and family, handing out flyers, putting up posters at your local shopping center, etc.) I had made not one sale.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;"><em>NOT ONE!!</em></span></strong></p>
<p>Can you imagine what that&#8217;s like? Working day and night, for 9 months straight, knowing you have your entire savings at stake&#8230; and at the end having NOTHING to show for it?</p>
<p>And the whole time, the people close to you are telling you to &#8216;stop chasing dreams&#8217; and to &#8216;just get a job.&#8217;</p>
<p>So things got pretty rough there for awhile&#8230; and I really started to doubt my ability to succeed in business.  Maybe I didn&#8217;t have what it takes&#8230;</p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;"><strong>But, there was light at the end of this tunnel.</strong></span></p>
<p>You see, around the same time, I&#8217;d begun studying direct response marketing.</p>
<p>Not just as a casual observer.  But with<em> intensity</em>.  I&#8217;d go to sleep at night listening to audio programs by Dan Kennedy, Jay Abraham, Gary Halbert and other legends of the industry.</p>
<p>And I started to<em> think</em> like a direct response marketer.</p>
<p>I started to ask better questions.  Like, <span style="color: #000000;"><strong>&#8220;is prospecting strangers really the easiest way to build my business, or is there a better way I could get leads?&#8221;</strong></span></p>
<h3><span style="font-size: small; color: #800000;">Now, in case you don&#8217;t know, the whole point of direct response is to bring you a prospect who has the<span style="color: #000000;"><strong> 4 P&#8217;s</strong></span>.</span></h3>
<p><strong>They are:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong><span style="color: #800000;">Pre-motivated</span></strong> (they&#8217;ve actively shown interest in finding a solution to whatever  problem they have, that your product solves)</li>
<li><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Pre-qualified</strong></span> (meaning they&#8217;re not just tyre kickers, or mildly curious about what offer. Instead, they&#8217;re quite serious).</li>
<li><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Pre-sold</strong></span> on your offer (they already have a high level of interest, and you&#8217;re not trying to &#8216;convince&#8217; them of anything)</li>
<li><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Pre-disposed</strong></span> to do business with you (instead of your competitors)</li>
</ul>
<p>And I realized that doing things the old fashioned way, like chasing friends and family, prospecting anyone with a pulse, etc, was getting me leads who did not have the <strong>4 P&#8217;s</strong>.</p>
<p><em><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">In fact, they didn&#8217;t even have</span> one!</strong></em></p>
<p>In order to get a prospect that had the 4 P&#8217;s, I&#8217;d have to create a sales funnel, or as we call it in network marketing, a <em>&#8216;<a href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/recruitonautopilot/brighttip/enblog" target="_blank">funded proposal</a>.</em>&#8216;</p>
<p>Every single top earner in the industry had one, so they were getting the best leads, and weren&#8217;t dealing with time wasters like I&#8217;d been dealing with for the past 9 months.</p>
<p>Now, because I was <em>not exactly the most &#8216;technical&#8217; guy in the world</em>, and didn&#8217;t know how to build websites, etc. back then, putting together my first <strong><a href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/recruitonautopilot/brighttip/enblog" target="_blank">funded proposal</a></strong> took me a long time, about 4 weeks.</p>
<p>I had no idea what I was doing, so I just modeled the same funded proposal I saw the top earner in the company using (it&#8217;s pretty funny in hindsight, mine was <em>exactly</em> the same as his, except I&#8217;d replaced his name with mine!).</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">And I&#8217;ll never forget the first time my funded proposal brought in my first big ticket sale.</span></strong></p>
<p>It was for slightly over 5K&#8230; and that was just a month or two after I&#8217;d completed it, and made some tweaks.</p>
<p>After having nothing to show for 9 months of work, it was nice to finally get a taste of success.</p>
<p>And now being shy and not very good at prospecting strangers was no longer a problem.</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>So, why am I telling you this?</strong></span></p>
<p>Because if you&#8217;re like me, and you&#8217;re not one of those super charismatic people who can come into network marketing and recruit a 100 reps in their first 2 months, then perhaps you should consider putting together your own <span style="color: #800000;"><a href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/recruitonautopilot/brighttip/enblog" target="_blank">funded proposal</a></span>.</p>
<p>Now, you don&#8217;t need to go and spend 4 weeks doing it, like I did.</p>
<p>It only took that long for me, because I had no one to show me how.</p>
<p>As long as you follow my steps below, you can have your own funded proposal set up, and ready to go<em> in less than a day:</em></p>

<h2><span style="font-size: medium; color: #800000;">Here&#8217;s EXACTLY what I&#8217;d do to make my first 1K online&#8230;</span></h2>
<p>Building a business online&#8230;</p>
<p>It&#8217;s very much a numbers game.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s say that your goal was to make your first $1,000 online, but you could only work part-time (since you&#8217;re already busy).</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>If I were you, here&#8217;s exactly how I&#8217;d do it: </strong></span></p>
<p>First, when building your own email list, your average subscriber is going to be worth around $2-$5 per month.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s assuming you are marketing to them, recommending good products as an affiliate.</p>
<p>You can find thousands of products to promote on a site like <a title="Clickbank" href="http://clickbank.com/" target="_blank">ClickBank.com</a> (and of course, you only promote good products that help people &#8211; no crap).<span id="more-4382"></span></p>
<p>Or, you can even promote Matt&#8217;s products where he will pay you 50% commissions on everything, which means you&#8217;ll get a minimum of $48.50 for everyone who joins the Inner Circle through your link.</p>
<p>(Sign up at <a title="Click Here to become an affiliate" href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/recruit/brighttip" target="_blank">http://myonlinebusinessempire.<wbr>com/affiliates</wbr></a>)</p>
<p>Next, you need to build a list.</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>You need an audience to sell to.</strong></span></p>
<p>Let&#8217;s stay on the safe side&#8230; and say your average subscriber is worth only 2 bucks a month.</p>
<p>Therefore, you will need a list of around 500 people to make that $1,000 per month.</p>
<p>That means we have to get you to 500 leads asap&#8230;</p>
<p>Now you can do it with SEO, but that&#8217;s gonna take too long.</p>
<p>Personally, I suggest you go with Facebook PPC.</p>
<p>Right now, I&#8217;m approaching the point where I&#8217;ve spent a lot on Facebook ads, and as long as they continue to perform, I&#8217;ll happily spend more.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">So that&#8217;s what I would do if I were you, Facebook PPC is working very nicely right now, and is still cheap.</span></strong></p>
<p>Now to get someone on your list&#8230; you&#8217;re going to need to spend around $3.50 per lead (based on my own testing).</p>
<p>Sure, you could get cheaper&#8230; but I&#8217;m assuming you&#8217;ve never done much Facebook PPC before, so you&#8217;ll be learning as you go.</p>
<p>25 leads / day is more than possible, even if you&#8217;re new, but you&#8217;ve got to be willing to spend the money.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s say you are serious, and are willing to spend $90 a day.</p>
<p>I know that a lot of people won&#8217;t  be willing to spend that&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230;but you&#8217;ve got to get serious here. Are you here to build a real business, or just play around?</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">If you want the big bucks, you&#8217;ve gotta get in the game.</span></strong></p>
<p>You can start with less and scale up&#8230; but if you&#8217;re all about Speed (like me) then you&#8217;ll want to get to 25 + leads daily asap.</p>
<p>With 25 leads daily, you&#8217;re now looking at a list of 175 by the end of the week.</p>
<p>Within 3 weeks&#8230; you&#8217;d have 525 people on your list.</p>
<p>And there you go.</p>
<p>There&#8217;s your list of 500 (since a few will unsubscribe, and give you fake email addresses).</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">Now to get your $2-5/ month from each lead, you need to be marketing to them on a regular basis.</span></strong></p>
<p>And again, only good products that help them. If you promote a bad product&#8230; they won&#8217;t buy from you again.</p>
<p>For email marketing, I recommend <a title="Aweber" href="http://virgilcook.com/aweber" target="_blank">Aweber.com</a> - it&#8217;s what I used when I got started, and is cheap too, you can try it out for just $1.</p>
<p>(By the way, I just promoted my affiliate link for Aweber, so if you buy it, I&#8217;ll make around $5 per month for as long as you continue to use it. I&#8217;d recommend it even if I wasn&#8217;t an affiliate, but I&#8217;m just making a point).</p>
<p>Now with your emails, you need to be writing with personality, not just sales pitch after sales pitch, otherwise people tune out.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re not much of a writer, that&#8217;s ok. You&#8217;ll get better with practice, trust me on that.</p>
<p>Since you&#8217;ve spent 1,750 to build your list&#8230; and since you&#8217;re now making a minimum of 2 bucks a subscriber per month&#8230; (or 1K per month), it&#8217;s going to take 2 months before you are making a profit&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230;after those first 2 months, you&#8217;re pretty much making bank.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">Each month, that asset (your list) can pay for your groceries, rent, and who knows what else.</span></strong></p>
<p>But don&#8217;t stop there! Keep building that list, always focus on growing it.</p>
<p>My biggest regret over these past few years, is I didn&#8217;t do something everyday to build my list. And it has cost me&#8230; so don&#8217;t make the same mistake that I made.</p>
<p>Now, I&#8217;ve given you a very rough outline here.</p>
<p>But if you follow what I&#8217;ve outlined, then it&#8217;s possible to get to 1K a month pretty quickly.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">What would you do with an extra 1K at the end of every month?</span></strong></p>
<p>If you want to take it beyond 1K a month&#8230; to possibly much more, there&#8217;s a few more details you&#8217;ll need to know about email marketing.</p>
<p>Such as writing emails that sell, segmenting your list, promoting launches, etc&#8230;  If you get good&#8230; then you&#8217;re average subscriber value won&#8217;t be worth $2&#8230; it will be more like $5. Which is a big difference.</p>
<p>Over the next few days, I&#8217;ll be hosting a series of free online workshops, to teach you about creating your own &#8216;Income, &#8216;On-Demand&#8217; with email marketing:</p>
<p><a href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/incomeondemand/brighttip" target="_blank">https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/incomeondemand/brighttip</a></p>
<p>I&#8217;ll explain the essentials you need to know about email marketing, and if you already have a list (even a small one) I&#8217;ll show you how to make a lot more money per subscriber.</p>
<p>There&#8217;s only 45 seats available per workshop, so if you don&#8217;t want to miss out on this, go ahead and register now:</p>
<p><a href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/incomeondemand/brighttip" target="_blank">https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/incomeondemand/brighttip</a></p>
<p>&#8216;See you&#8217; on the call.</p>
<p>Out of all the skills you need to develop to make a decent living online, email marketing is #1.  Without the ability to send out emails that make people want to take out their credit cards, and send you money, you have no business.  This workshop will show you how:</p>

<h2><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium; color: #800000;">Join us for our Funded Proposal Workshop now before the registration closes on May 15, 2012&#8230;</span></h2>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">A <strong><a href="Funded Proposal Workshop" target="_blank">Funded Proposal</a></strong> is basically a sales funnel where you sell an inexpensive front-end product and the money you make from that sale covers your marketing expense. Then, what you earn on the back-end of your sales funnel will be clear profit&#8230;</span></p>
<p>With your front-end info-product, you will find leads that are interested in you, not the other way around, and have shown they are committed by taking out their credit card and investing in acquiring knowledge.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">In the Network Marketing industry, you have a choice to make.</span></strong></p>
<p>You can either do it the old fashioned (old school) way, which is the way most people were taught&#8230; They were told to make a list of friends and family, make a list of one hundred people they know, and then call them with your business opportunity.<span id="more-4384"></span></p>
<p><strong>When doing it this way you are just chasing people&#8230;</strong></p>
<p>So, you are selling a marketing system and the marketing system is what sells your products. Don&#8217;t create your marketing around your product because people will join your business for the marketing system that will act as a vehicle to their financial freedom.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s why most people get into this industry in the first place&#8230;</p>
<h3><span style="font-size: small; color: #800000;">But what exactly is a system?</span></h3>
<p>It’s a standardised set of tools and instructions.</p>
<p>We’re trying to market a system to distributors who retail our company’s products. And when we have new distributors come on board, we teach them some leadership and marketing skills to help them become real business owners, so that you can leave them and concentrate effectively on selling more franchises (or your business opportunity) to new franchise owners.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium; color: #800000;">What is your opinion? Does GoDaddy Suck?</span></h2>
<p><strong>Honestly!</strong></p>
<p>For myself I have never personally used GoDaddy, but I have been on their site several times helping others with different aspects of their accounts. Each time I have found it to be very difficult to navigate the site.</p>
<p>This could possibly be from not using the site all the time and getting really familiar with it, or it could be as most of the people I know that have used their hosting say, and that is &#8220;<strong><a href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/mobe/brighttip/vcblog" target="_blank">GoDaddy Sucks</a></strong>.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">Now this is only my opinion based on what I have heard from friends, mentors, and others that I have worked with since starting out in my Internet Marketing career&#8230;</span></strong></p>
<p>Here is an email I received from the latest to fall to the wayside cursing profusely about GoDaddy and the experience he is just now hopefully getting straightened out with this hosting company&#8230; This email is from one of my mentors and here is what he had to say&#8230;<span id="more-4368"></span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div class="bluebox   aligncenter" style="width: 500px; border-width: 3px; border-style: solid;">
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">Here is what one of my mentors says about GoDaddy&#8230;</span></strong></p>
<p>If you have ever had to deal with a phone company&#8217;s lousy customer support&#8230; where they put you on hold, pass you from one rep to another, say in that patronizing voice &#8220;sir/maam, we are working on it as fast as possible, and you&#8217;ll just have to wait&#8221;&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230; then you&#8217;ll have some idea of how I feel right now.</p>
<p>These past 48 hours, the morons over at Godaddy have not only taken down half of my websites, but, not one rep we talk to (and we&#8217;ve spoken to over 10) seem to have the slightest clue what is going on.</p>
<p>In my mind, I imagine this is what Godaddy&#8217;s office environment looks like:</p>
<p><a title="Godaddy monkeys" href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/app/linkClick/4636/ffa21a150ede4626/6404614/326a47bb8d98a2f7" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?<wbr>v=3OLsEqCsu0Q&amp;feature=related</wbr></a></p>
<p>Let me give you the details &#8211; not just to complain- but so you&#8217;ll never have to go through this yourself.</p>
<p>Actually&#8230; before I do- let me apologize.  Especially if you have tried to get your ticket for Online Income Revolution in 3 weeks &#8211; because that site is down too.</p>
<p>Hopefully, all my sites will be back up shortly- we&#8217;re working on it.</p>
<p>Anyway&#8230;</p>
<p>About 48 hours back, we decided to get ssl hosting for one of my domains (so we can process credit cards- and have our customers details be secure).</p>
<p>Godaddy had to go and change something in the background &#8211; and then suddenly, my sites went down.  They now go to a 404 redirect.</p>
<p>So I call Godaddy- we get it fixed.  But then&#8230; a few hours later, everything goes back down again.</p>
<p>Only this time- Godaddy point all my domains to some site in China!!</p>
<p>I&#8217;m not joking- here, take a look:  <a title="Godaddy screw up" href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/app/linkClick/4638/80434cc759b58a54/6404614/326a47bb8d98a2f7" target="_blank">http://screencast.com/t/<wbr>kytbHTB9tjG</wbr></a></p>
<p>We&#8217;ve called them over 10 times&#8230; each call lasting over 30 minutes.</p>
<p>And every single time- they come up with a different story.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s obvious none of them have the slightest clue what is going on.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m betting they put me on hold, and the conversation goes something like:</p>
<p><strong>Godaddy Monkey #1: </strong> hey, this dude from Australia sounds pissed, his sites are all pointing to someone else&#8217;s in China&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>Godaddy Monkey #2:</strong>  oh that guy?  he&#8217;s called 4 times already, his sites are playing up for some reason.  I gotta go to lunch though- just put him on hold for another 15 mins, and tell him something &#8216;official sounding,&#8217; like &#8220;our level 2 support are looking into it sir&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>Godaddy Monkey #1:</strong>  ok, good idea</p>
<p>This is also a lesson for you and me.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m sure you&#8217;ve heard, that the average customer who has a negative experience with a company, will tell something like 9 other people.</p>
<p>Well &#8211; what Godaddy probably don&#8217;t realise, is I&#8217;m not their average customer.</p>
<p>Because right now, I&#8217;m telling 55,000 people &#8211; do NOT use Godaddy&#8217;s hosting.</p>
<p>I hope I cost them tens of thousands in business too.</p>
<p>(and if anyone from Godaddy is reading this: you can kiss my ass).</p>
<p>My advice to you- is if your business is just getting started- do NOT host with godaddy.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re currently with them, then MOVE.</p>
<p>Trust me- it&#8217;s much easier to move all your sites when you&#8217;re doing less than a few k in revenue each month, than when you&#8217;re doing over 100k each month.</p>
<p>As soon as they fix their screw up, I&#8217;ll be moving all my sites, and will never touch them again.</p>
<p>The funny thing is, I remember watching a training a couple years back, about a guy doing 7 figures online, who slammed Godaddy, after they cost him about 50k during a launch.</p>
<p>I wish I&#8217;d listened to his advice.  So I hope you listen to me now: do not use Godaddy.</p>
<p>And you know what?</p>
<p>There&#8217;s a part of me that thinks, this was NOT an accident.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;ve ever let loose on a phone company / after they put you on hold for 40 mins, then you&#8217;ll know where I&#8217;m coming from.</p>
<p>I let loose on a guy at Godaddy, and I honestly believe, that one of those monkeys deliberately switched the ip address thingy&#8230; just to piss me off.</p>
<p>Anyway&#8230; I don&#8217;t mean to dump all this negativity onto you- I just would hate for you to have to go through this in your own business.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s been a tough week. First, having 15k robbed from my alertpay account (if you missed that, here&#8217;s a short video explaining:  <a title="15k stolen..." href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/app/linkClick/4640/a743d7a09836e642/6404614/326a47bb8d98a2f7" target="_blank">http://screencast.com/t/<wbr>PjiNrM5G7</wbr></a>)</p>
<p>Luckily, I got the 15k back, so at least that turned out all right.</p>
<p>Either way &#8211; this is all part of running an online business.</p>
<p>You have periods like this, where the incompetence of others can grind your business to a halt.</p>
<p>You&#8217;ve just got to keep pushing on though &#8211; you can&#8217;t let &#8216;them&#8217; win.</p>
<p>Talk soon,</p>
<p>Matt</p>
<p>ps.  Please forward this on to anyone you know, who has an online business.</p>
<p>Together, we CAN make a dent in Godaddy&#8217;s business.</p>
<p>And in case I did not make myself clear: Do NOT use Godaddy.  Ever.</p>

<h3><span style="font-size: medium; color: #800000;">I would be interested in hearing your opinion&#8230;</span></h3>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">That is the email I received this morning</span></strong> after all of his sites had been completely shut own for more than two days and even redirected to some company in China towards the end as your heard him say in his email above. Now as a marketer, I can understand his frustration with it all, but also as a marketer I had a lot of paid advertising pointing to his products myself and there is no way to calculate the losses we both had with the sites being down and the traffic that clicked and left, never to return&#8230;</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">Like I said earlier</span></strong>, I have not had any personal issues with <em><a href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/mobe/brighttip/vcblog" target="_blank">GoDaddy</a></em> since I have chosen not to use them from things like this instance that have happened to others in the past. Even though I did not use them, they still affected me because of my marketing of other peoples sites, and losses of revenue due to the amount of time a site was down&#8230;</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">Whether you have had <span style="color: #000000;">good or bad</span> results with GoDaddy</span></strong>, I would like to see your comments below. I am sorry, but from what I have seen and what I have heard from colleagues and others, I myself do not have any use for <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/mobe/brighttip/vcblog" target="_blank">GoDaddy</a></span>&#8230;</p>

<h2><span style="font-size: medium; color: #800000;">Do you want to know why it is so important to work with the right people in business my friend?</span></h2>
<p>I&#8217;m going to share something with you today that can make you A LOT of money if you put it to use.</p>
<p>You see, I have undergone a few &#8216;transformations&#8217; in my own growth over the last few years in business and within myself. And to share this lesson with you I&#8217;m going to let you in on a little bit more of my story!</p>
<p>When I was first starting out in network marketing&#8230;I was a total NEWBIE. I was wet behind the ears, had no clue what I was doing, no clue how to influence people, no clue how to be a good network marketer, build relationships, or do so many of the things that actually lead to success in this industry.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">To tell you the truth</span></strong>, I started to get Desperate! It was almost like my feelings of self worth, and my identity, were attached to how successful I was in my business.</p>
<p>If someone rejected my business&#8230;I felt like they Rejected ME.<span id="more-4358"></span></p>
<p>If someone signed up in my business, it made me feel better about myself.</p>
<p>Of course, there was a lot more rejection than signing up so you can imagine how I felt most of the time! Ahhh the good ole days.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">So here I was</span></strong>, bumbling around like this for MONTHS on end in my business. Coming from the WRONG psychological state that actually creates success&#8230;and I ended up only attracting people to my business that were in an even worse off state than I was.</p>
<p>It seemed like every time I talked to a chiropractor, or business owner, or someone who I felt HAD influence&#8230;I would always bumble it up. I would always say something or do something that messed up the situation.</p>
<p>And you might know how it feels when you do that&#8230;you feel like you just screwed everything up! You feel like you might have just messed up your business forever because you missed that one great prospect!</p>
<p>(Haha, this is FAR from the truth. Even though it doesn&#8217;t feel like it at the time&#8230;there are more people on this planet to join your business than you could EVER sponsor&#8230;)</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">Eventually I just became &#8216;Traditionally Defeated&#8217;</span></strong>. I just couldn&#8217;t do it anymore. I was so scared every time I went to prospect another person who I didn&#8217;t know or who didn&#8217;t want what I had to offer&#8230;that I just couldn&#8217;t do it.</p>
<p>I was completely ineffective. But from that&#8230;an AMAZING thing happened. &#8216;I started seeking solutions&#8217;&#8230;</p>
<p>I DID NOT give up on myself. And there&#8217;s something powerful in that statement so let me repeat it in a different way.</p>
<p>After 10 months of total and miserable failure&#8230;I did NOT give up on myself. (hint about success)</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">Instead, I sought solutions. Now here&#8217;s where the REAL psychology gets interesting&#8230;</span></strong></p>
<p>I eventually learned that I needed constant and steady lead generation to build my business and that using technologies like the Internet are HANDS DOWN the easiest ways to do that.</p>
<p>But, it wasn&#8217;t like my success just sprung up instantly because I had that realization. In fact, looking back at it, there was this &#8216;Crucial&#8217; development period that MADE ME into the entrepreneur I am today.</p>
<p>Looking back&#8230;I see that SO MANY of the experiences I went through in the beginning of this industry, and even internet marketing, were really there to help me build my value.</p>
<p>I was learning so much from these experiences, growing so much from my PROLONGED effort and pursuit of knowledge in our industry&#8230; that my own &#8216;VALUE&#8217; just started to increase and increase.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">All of a sudden..</span></strong>.it was Easier for me to talk to people who had more influence. All of a sudden, it was easier for me to hop on the phone and influence people MYSELF.</p>
<p>The more my OWN value grew inside&#8230;the more I found I could network with and influence other POWERFUL people.</p>
<p>And make no mistake my Friend, you will be MUCH more successful if you go after people who are more influential and powerful than YOU are.</p>
<p>The reason why is ONE very strong leader&#8230;can build a larger organization than if you signed up 100 not so strong leaders. It happens ALL the time.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">The key to ALL of that though is this&#8230;</span></strong>you have to develop yourself to that level FIRST if you want to attract someone like that to you!</p>
<p>You have to fill yourself with so much value&#8230;that it&#8217;s apparent to everyone who is around you just how much you can offer them.</p>
<p>I did this by becoming an AVID student of technology, marketing, mindset, leadership, self growth, and many other things.</p>
<p>I literally DEVOTED myself to developing in all of these areas, and before I knew it I was &#8216;naturally&#8217; networking with the BEST OF THE BEST in this industry. Other leaders were naturally choosing to work with me and join me in business because they saw firsthand just HOW MUCH I actually had to offer them.</p>
<p>The funny part is, before the Internet I had no background, no internet marketing experience, no business history to boot&#8230; I had absolutely nothing.</p>
<h3><span style="font-size: small; color: #800000;">I entered this industry knowing no one and nothing about how I was going to be successful.</span></h3>
<p>It&#8217;s a funny world right? Who would have known you can basically learn a few key principles, put yourself out there on the Internet, and completely change your life in less than a few years.</p>
<p>Well, that&#8217;s what YOU have staring you in the face.</p>
<p>When you really LEARN these principles about attraction marketing, relationship building, and &#8216;MindSet&#8217;&#8230;you can use the Internet to gain more exposure for yourself than you even think is possible.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m living proof.</p>
<p><em><strong><span style="color: #800000;">So the moral of the story here today is this&#8230;</span></strong></em></p>
<p>- You NEED to learn what REALLY creates success in our industry. And it&#8217;s not 3 way calls or your friends and family&#8230;It&#8217;s the science of &#8216;Becoming Attractive&#8217; and having &#8216;Endless Prospects&#8217;. (trust me&#8230;that&#8217;s it.)</p>
<p>- There is a science to learning attraction marketing&#8230;and a lot of it has to do with developing yourself.</p>
<p>- And if you stay COMMITTED to your long term goals and visions, it&#8217;s almost IMPOSSIBLE to NOT start creating more success if you simply apply the new knowledge you learn.</p>
<p>Oh, and to top it off, the internet is hands down the fastest way to reach unreal success in this industry that there is. Hands down, no question, that is fact. I am the proof.</p>
<p>So what I have prepared to HELP YOU do all of this much quicker, is a training that details exactly how I have done everything I do online.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">You can learn more about this training here:</span></strong></p>
<p><a href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/mobe/brighttip/vcblog">My Online Business Empire</a> (MOBE)</p>
<p>The quickest way to learn something new is to learn from someone who HAS BEEN THERE and done it before. And as far as I know&#8230; there are FEW network marketers that have really learned how to use technology to build their businesses as big as I have, and in as short of a time period.</p>
<p>Once you have this same knowledge in your hands&#8230;you will know exactly how to start growing your business like a SCIENCE, and can escape the madness of ineffective tactics once and for all.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">You can learn more about all of that here:</span></strong></p>

<p>I hope you enjoyed my story today my Friend, and took some real value out of it. If you follow your heart and soul in this industry&#8230;it will take you to some amazing places.</p>
<p>The thing I feel the MOST fortunate about today&#8230;is that almost ALL of the relationships I have built online with my closest business partners&#8230;are BEAUTIFUL friendships as well.</p>
<p>These are people I can honestly say I have LOTS of love for, I cherish their company, appreciate them as people, love to be around them&#8230;and look forward to knowing them all for the rest of my life.</p>
<p>That gift in and of itself is one of the most beautiful things to me. And I have met ALL of these people networking online, and building businesses online, just over the past few years.</p>

<h2><span style="font-size: medium; color: #800000;">I&#8217;ll bet you are wasting your time right now!</span></h2>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">I&#8217;m willing to bet that right now, there&#8217;s just 1-3 activities in </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">your business which bring in sales, and the rest are just wasting your time.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;"><em>These are what you should be focusing on.</em></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Everything else, is just <em>wasting of your time</em>.  And every minute </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">you spend doing the many activities that don&#8217;t directly </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">contribute to your bottom line, is costing you.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">I spent many years studying different courses, before I got to the point where I could build </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">my online business full time.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">And although I didn&#8217;t learn much&#8230; a few lessons have stuck </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">with me.</span></p>
<h3><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;"><strong>One of these is the concept of &#8216;opportunity cost&#8217; from economics.<span id="more-4345"></span></strong></span></h3>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Opportunity cost is defined as the:</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><em>&#8216;<span style="color: #800000;">The cost of passing up the next best choice when making a </span></em></span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;"><em>decision.&#8217;</em></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">So, if you list out all the most profitable activities you have </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">in your business, and rank them from most profitable to least, </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">you might have a list like mine:</span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Creating and hosting a sales webinar</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Product creation</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Writing emails to my list recommending products</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Sales on the phone</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Writing a sales letter</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Writing ads</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Putting together new campaigns</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;"><strong>&#8230; and so on</strong>.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">And then at the bottom of that list, you&#8217;ve got all those </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">activities that might feel like they&#8217;re important&#8230; but don&#8217;t </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">do jack for your bottom line:</span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Trying to figure out how to build a website</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Responding to email</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Chatting on Facebook</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Talking on Skype</span></li>
</ul>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;">&#8230; and so on.</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Now, every single time you do the activities at the bottom of </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">that list, you are using up your time (which can never be </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">recovered), that could have been spent on activities at the </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">top of your list.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">That is the opportunity cost.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;"><strong>And I promise you, it&#8217;s costing you a merry fortune.</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><em>You need to stop doing those activities as soon as you can, so </em></span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><em>you can focus on what&#8217;s important.</em></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">You need to learn how to outsource.  How to leverage &#8216;<a title="The O.P.T. Formula" href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/outsourcingsecrets/brighttip/  " target="_blank">Other People&#8217;s </a></span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><a title="The O.P.T. Formula" href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/outsourcingsecrets/brighttip/  " target="_blank">Time</a>,&#8217; (O.P.T.).</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Once I finally &#8216;got this,&#8217; I started outsourcing as much of my work </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">as possible.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">And funnily enough, my income started to climb,<em> fast.</em></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Learning to outsource is a whole new skill set in it&#8217;s own right.  </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">And that&#8217;s exactly why <a title="The O.P.T. Formula" href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/outsourcingsecrets/brighttip/  " target="_blank">&#8216;The O.P.T. Formula</a>&#8216; was put together, so you </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">could learn how to do it<em> the right way,</em> without making all the costly </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">mistakes one makes through trial and error.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;"><strong>Within the program, here&#8217;s what you&#8217;ll discover:</strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Exactly which jobs to outsource first</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">The best sites to use to outsource</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">What to write in your job descriptions (I even<em> give you</em> all of my </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">job descriptions from my own business, for you to copy)</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">How to screen out all the time wasters who apply for your jobs</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">How to ensure you never get ripped off, and get <em>exactly</em> what you paid </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">for </span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><strong><span style="color: #800000;">&#8230; and a whole lot more</span></strong>.  </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">You can see the entire list <a title="Some of the things you'll learn..." href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/outsourcingsecrets/brighttip/  " target="_blank">here.</a></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">But whether you get this coaching program or not, I just want you to </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">understand that by not outsourcing, you are preventing your business from </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">ever reaching the next level.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;"><strong>You can&#8217;t do everything on your own- there&#8217;s just too much.</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Plus&#8230; <em>why would you even want to?</em>  The whole point of building an </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">online business was so you could work less hours, wasn&#8217;t it?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">For me, if building an online business was always about having more </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">freedom.  Freedom to do <em>what I want, when I want, with whoever I wanted.</em></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">And outsourcing has made that a reality.  It can do the same for you.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">You know in your heart that at some point, you&#8217;re going to have to start </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">outsourcing if you want to reach 6 or 7 figures.  So why not start now?</span></p>

<h2><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium; color: #800000;">I have to ask, &#8220;Were We All Lied To About This?&#8221;</span></h2>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">I don&#8217;t know about you, but when I got involved in network </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">marketing back in 2008, I grossly underestimated how </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">difficult it was going to be&#8230;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><a href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/recruitonautopilot/brighttip/"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-4338" title="were we all lied to" src="http://virgilcook.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/marketing.jpg" alt="were we all lied to" width="240" height="176" /></a>You see, I was so sold on network marketing, that I assumed that anyone I </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">showed the plan to would be as well.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">But soon, 9 months had gone by and <strong>not one sale had been </strong></span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><strong>made</strong>.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Not one!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">I got really fed up with it, but I couldn&#8217;t just walk </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">away, I&#8217;d invested too much time and money into it.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">So I had to figure out a way to make it work.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Like Einstein said, <span id="more-4332"></span></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><em>&#8220;The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over, </em></span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><em>and expecting a different result.&#8221;</em></span></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">So I switched tactics.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">I decided, instead of listening to all the gurus who were </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">telling me, </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><strong>&#8220;Just follow the system&#8221;</strong> and <strong>&#8220;Don&#8217;t reinvent the wheel&#8221; </strong></span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">and <strong>&#8220;you just need to talk to more people.&#8221;</strong></span></p>
<h3><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;">I began to study what they actually did.</span></h3>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">And most did not follow their own advice.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Instead, they had a cheap information product, like an ebook.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">They sold that ebook to people for say, $50.00.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">The profits they made from those sales covered their marketing </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">expenses, which meant they were essentially getting free leads!</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">(Their leads were actually their customers).</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">They would then recruit new distributors for their team from </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">that customer base.</span></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">This is what&#8217;s called a funded proposal, and just about </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">every network marketer who has ever made over $1 million in </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">their business is using one.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Once I discovered this&#8230; I began to work on creating my own.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">At first, it was difficult, because I had no idea what I was doing.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">So it took me a good few weeks to do my first product&#8230; </span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;"><a href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/recruitonautopilot/brighttip/"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-4339" title="were we all lied to" src="http://virgilcook.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/launch.jpg" alt="were we all lied to" width="233" height="216" /></a>But I&#8217;ll never forget what happened when I launched it online.</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">I started getting lots and lots of leads, and the money I </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">was making from my front end product almost equaled my </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">marketing bills.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Because of this, now I could grow the business much, much faster&#8230;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Frankly, there&#8217;s so much crap online these days, with people </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">claiming to have made a gazillion dollars in just 5 hours of discovering </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">a <strong>&#8216;secret system,&#8217;</strong> that even I don&#8217;t believe half of it.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">But if you come along to Matt&#8217;s online workshop, which we&#8217;ll be holding over </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">the next few nights, you&#8217;ll hear us explain more about it, and then you&#8217;ll </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">understand how it was possible:</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><a title="Register Here..." href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/recruitonautopilot/brighttip/" target="_blank">https://www. <wbr>webinarconferencemeetings.com/ <wbr>recruitonautopilot</wbr></wbr></a></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;"><strong>Just trust me on one thing:</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">If you want to &#8216;make it&#8217; in network marketing, it really </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">helps if you have your own products to sell to people. </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">That way, you can build up your customer base, and then </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">recruit directly from those people.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Your product doesn&#8217;t have to be anything fancy either.  My </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">first product was a simple word document I wrote, that I </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">saved as a pdf and sold as an ebook.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">I sold it for $49, and maybe about 1 in 20 leads actually </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">bought it.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">I would then call my new customers, and that was how I </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">found people to partner with.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">It&#8217;s much, much easier than trying to recruit Uncle Bob or </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">the lady behind you in the grocery line.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Anyway&#8230; if you want the details on the exact process, </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">come along to this online workshop &#8211; it&#8217;s free:</span></span></strong></p>

<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">I just got off the phone with a coaching student of mine.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">She&#8217;s in network marketing.  And she&#8217;s not doing so well.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">So, she goes to her upline, and asks, <strong><span style="color: #800000;">&#8220;can you please help </span></strong></span><strong><span style="color: #800000;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">me, because I&#8217;ve been doing this for over 7 months now, and </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">I&#8217;m not sponsoring anyone&#8230; what am I doing wrong?&#8221;</span></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Her upline says, <strong><span style="color: #800000;">&#8220;you just need to talk to more people.  Have </span></strong></span><strong><span style="color: #800000;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">you been through your list of friends and family?  Yes?  Go </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">through them again&#8230; work that list.&#8221;</span></span></strong></p>

Are your uplines <strong>still teaching this crap</strong> to you?</p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Bah!  I told my coaching student what I thought of her uplines </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">&#8216;advice.&#8217;  <strong>Pure BS</strong>.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">I can&#8217;t believe they are <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>still teaching this crap</strong></span>.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">The truth is, all the top earners in network marketing operate </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">by a very different set of rules.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">They use automated sales funnels, that are designed to position </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">their prospects in such a way, that once they get on the phone </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">with them, it&#8217;s an easy sale.  </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Sponsoring becomes a cinch.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Sounds simple.  And it is.  <strong>But putting it all together requires </strong></span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><strong>quite a few steps. <span id="more-4315"></span> </strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Luckily, over the next few nights, we&#8217;ll share with you exactly what </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">they are:</span></strong></span></p>

<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">We&#8217;ll be teaching you how he got out of doing the silly pitch</span> <span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">and chase stuff still being taught by most up lines&#8230;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">&#8230;. things like &#8216;<span style="color: #800000;">make a list of friends and family&#8217;</span> and the old </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span style="color: #800000;">&#8217;3 foot rule&#8217;</span> where anyone within hearing distance of you is a </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">prospect.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;">Instead, we&#8217;ll show you how I do it now, and how you can do it too.</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Very few uplines give this type of training.  Mainly because they </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">like to dumb it down, over-simplify, and recruit suckers.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">But, those methods just don&#8217;t work for most.  </span></p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000; text-decoration: underline;">These methods do:</span></strong></span></p>

<p>Matt says, &#8220;If I sound a little bitter towards what most people in the network marketing teach&#8230; it&#8217;s because I am.  I spent 9 months and 38K of my savings following that advice, before I figured out an easier way:&#8221;</p>

<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">I can relate to that myself, because I </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">spent a lot of time and money doing the exact same thing:</span></p>

<h2><span style="color: #800000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">&#8220;All you care about is money&#8221; she said&#8230; Yep, that&#8217;s what she said alright.</span></h2>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><a href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/letter/brighttip/"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-4307" title="money" src="http://virgilcook.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/angry.jpg" alt="money" width="199" height="254" /></a>I once had a very angry lady yell at me, and say &#8221;all you care about is money!&#8221;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Why?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Because I would not get on the phone with her and help her for free. I told her she&#8217;d have to pay my hourly rate, which is $175.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">I don&#8217;t give away my time for free.  And neither should you. We are all here to make money, even her!</span></p>
<h3><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;">Time is the one thing that we can never get back.</span></h3>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">But, in some respects, that lady had a point.  She accused me of being money driven.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">And you know what?  <em><strong>She was right</strong>.</em>  And I don&#8217;t apologize for it one bit. I am here to make money.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;">It is my right to pursue a profit.  <em>And it&#8217;s your right too. <span id="more-4301"></span> </em></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">So don&#8217;t ever let someone tell you different, or try to make you feel guilty about wanting to make money online.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Now&#8230; while we&#8217;re on the subject, I&#8217;d like to share a true story with you that happened to one of my mentors.</span></p>
<div class="bluebox   aligncenter" style="width: 500px; border-width: 3px; border-style: solid;">
<p>It happened in early 2010, when I had more money gush into my bank account than I&#8217;d ever experienced before.</p>
<p>The amount was something like $15,600 &#8211; give or take a hundred bucks.</p>
<p>And it all came to me on a Tuesday night.</p>
<p>I remember it clearly, I was at my sisters place, sitting on the couch with my laptop, when I got 2 email notifications for commissions generated.</p>
<p>Now, this was for a very high ticket business I was promoting.  This particular deal was a result of a lead I&#8217;d generated from Google, about 3 months earlier.</p>
<p>Do you know what it&#8217;s like to suddenly make $15K in a night as a 23 year old?</p>
<p>Well, neither did I up until that point.</p>
<p>And at first&#8230; I was just stunned.  I was speechless.  I called out to my sister, and said &#8220;guess how much money I just made?&#8221;</p>
<p>I wasn&#8217;t trying to brag&#8230; but you know when something incredible happens to you, and you just wanna share it?</p>
<p>I went to the movies myself that night.  I can&#8217;t remember what I saw, but the movie theatre was empty&#8230; I wanted to be alone, and to let it sink in.</p>
<p>The reason I&#8217;m telling you this, is not to brag or to be a &#8217;big shot.&#8217;</p>
<p>I&#8217;m telling you, because as much as I love having paydays like that&#8230; I get equal enjoyment out of something else.</p>
<p>And that is helping people get started online, and quit their sucky jobs.</p>
<p>At age 24&#8230; I don&#8217;t really have much experience in raising a family, paying a mortgage, and trying to work full time as well.</p>
<p>But I know it can be tough.</p>
<p>And I also know that trying to build an online business in the evenings, after putting your kids to bed, and after having worked all day&#8230; is not easy..</p>
<p>It takes balls to do what we do.</p>
<p>To not accept our situation&#8230; and to want a little more for ourselves, and for our family.</p>
<p>So to me, when I get emails, or video testimonials, I feel equally as good as I do when I get those email notifications telling me about a commission.</p>
<p>I know that might be hard to believe for some&#8230; but it&#8217;s the truth.</p>
</div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>What my mentor is saying in his story is true.Here is an example of a testimonial I got from a coaching client&#8230;that has nothing to do with my commissions&#8230;</p>

<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Other peoples success, ordinary people from all over the world who&#8217;ve been members of the &#8216;Inner Circle&#8217; for some time now&#8230; and are either in the process of quitting their jobs&#8230; or have already done it:</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">They aren&#8217;t anything special.  They&#8217;re not super models&#8230; they don&#8217;t have I.Q.&#8217;s of 150&#8230; and they aren&#8217;t all young computer nerds either&#8230;</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;"><a href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/letter/brighttip/"><img class="size-full wp-image-4308 alignright" title="money" src="http://virgilcook.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/ordinary.jpg" alt="money" width="280" height="180" /></a>They are all very ordinary people.</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Just like me.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">But what separates them from most, is the fact they were willing to suspend their disbelief, and try something different.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">When you hear these people tell their stories, ask yourself this:</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;">&#8220;If they can do it, then why the hell can&#8217;t I?&#8221;</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Asking that question in late 2009 set me free.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">And it can set you free too.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">You&#8217;ll see a lot of ordinary people like you and me at the link below, getting extra the &#8216;</span><a style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;" title="My Online Business Empire System" href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/letter/brighttip/" target="_blank">My Online Business Empire System</a><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">.&#8217;</span></p>

<h2><span style="color: #800000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;">This is &#8216;The ONE Skill&#8217; you must master if you wanna make it online&#8230;</span></h2>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">What is the most important skill to master when growing an online business?</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;"><a href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/outsourcingsecrets/brighttip/"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-4292" title="outsourcing" src="http://virgilcook.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/outsourcing.jpg" alt="outsourcing" width="243" height="207" /></a>Outsourcing.</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Learning how to leverage other peoples skills and talents so you can </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">grow your business to higher and higher levels by using <span style="color: #0000ff;"><em><a href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/outsourcingsecrets/brighttip/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">outsourcing</span></a></em></span>.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Over the next few nights, Matt Lloyd is going to be hosting a series of online </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">workshops where he&#8217;ll share with you all the secrets he&#8217;s picked up, from </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">outsourcing over 200+ jobs:</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #0000ff;"><a title="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/outsourcingsecrets/brighttip/" href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/outsourcingsecrets/brighttip/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">https://webinarconferencemeetings.com/outsourcingsecretsrevealed<span id="more-4288"></span></span></a></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Out of all the questions people ask me about getting started online, the </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">one that comes up the most is this:</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">&#8220;What if I don&#8217;t have the slightest clue about making websites and all </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">that technical stuff?&#8221; </span></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Well here&#8217;s the thing. I&#8217;ve been online for over 3 years now, and </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">do you wanna know something?</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">I don&#8217;t have a clue about that any of that stuff either! </span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">And I don&#8217;t plan on learning it any time soon&#8230; because all of it can be </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">outsourced for next to nothing, you can literally hire someone in </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">India to build you a professional website in under 48 hours for less than 100 </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">bucks. That&#8217;s my answer, <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/outsourcingsecrets/brighttip/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">outsourcing</span></a></span> it&#8230;</span></p>
<h3><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;"><a href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/outsourcingsecrets/brighttip/"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-4293" title="outsourcing" src="http://virgilcook.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/question.jpg" alt="outsourcing" width="212" height="238" /></a>Let me ask you a simple question&#8230;</span></h3>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">If you&#8217;re in the business of selling products online&#8230; then are </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">you getting paid to build websites? No. Unless that&#8217;s your </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">primary business, you&#8217;re wasting your time learning those things. Again my answer is outsourcing&#8230;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Instead, you want to be focusing on the more important jobs that only you </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">can do&#8230; the jobs that bring in the cash. The rest of it can be done </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">by someone else, <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/outsourcingsecrets/brighttip/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;">outsourcing</span></a></span></span>&#8230;</span></p>

		</div>
<h2><span style="font-size: medium; color: #800000;">Does it really matter which way it goes, make money and travel or travel and make money?</span></h2>
<p>I would rather think not&#8230;however I think no matter which way it comes about the end will be the same.</p>
<p>Let me tell you a short story about how I came to understand this concept of <strong><span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://virgilcook.com/op/grn-squeeze/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">make money and travel</span></a></span></strong>&#8230;<span id="more-4261"></span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div class="bluebox   aligncenter" style="width: 500px; border-width: 3px; border-style: solid;">
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">Let&#8217;s go back about 5 years to 2007 for a moment.</span></strong> Why is 2007 so important you may be asking? Well, 2007 in when I got my first taste of an MLM company and the world of network marketing.</p>
<p>At that time I was 57 years old and I had decided that my income and my retirement savings were a long ways from being in a position to last through my retired years. I did not want to continue to work myself to death. I did not relish the idea of working a second job and at my age changing careers did not seem to be an option either&#8230;?</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>I was looking for a way to supplement my retirement</strong></span> and earn a substantially higher income. In the process of searching on the Internet, because I had heard that was where the money was, I came across an advertisement for making money online&#8230;</p>
<p>I won&#8217;t go into what the company name was or what the products were since the story will be the same as whatever company you are currently with, if you are with a company? At that time I did not know what lay ahead for me, but I was excited to begin my new journey into the unknown.</p>
<p>I joined this opportunity, followed all of their trainings&#8230; went to all of the workshops that I could get to&#8230; went to all of the events&#8230; purchased all the newest products that came out an made sure I had a good inventory so I would not have to wait for the company to ship an order&#8230;</p>
<p>Well, everything was going pretty good for a couple of years&#8230;</p>
<p>I was making a little money and sponsoring some people&#8230;</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>I was doing like I was taught, to purchase and cold call leads&#8230;</strong></span> at that time, that was the only way I was getting sign ups? A lot of hours on the phone with people that had no idea who I was, what my products were, or any interest in my business at all?</p>
<p>You may be able to relate to what I am telling you, but you are probably asking, &#8220;I can&#8217;t see what this might have to do with <strong><a href="http://virgilcook.com/op/grn-squeeze/" target="_blank">make money and travel</a></strong>?&#8221; And, I will get to that here in just a minute&#8230;</p>
<p>I wasn&#8217;t breaking any records or anything and when I would start thinking I was starting to get ahead, I would have downline decide it was too much work and would quit. Because they were quitting they were also returning there purchase which I had to refund&#8230; Sound familiar? So there goes that little bit of profit and a little bit of confidence as well.</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Then it came&#8230;!</strong></span> The word came down the pipeline that the company was being sold. Oh no! What was I going to do now? How would this affect me?</p>
<p>Naturally the new owners take over and the first thing they do is change the names of all the products&#8230;</p>
<p>I am looking at my $10,000 worth of inventory sitting in my garage&#8230;what do I do now? I call the company and they say we are not honoring the warranties on any of the original products that have not been sold already.</p>
</div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;">Anyway that brings me to the realization that MLM companies are not a very secure investment and I really didn&#8217;t like that kind of selling anyway. Too much work, too much time spent, and too little rewards&#8230;income.</span></p>
<p>That is when I learned my first lesson and found out there was a better way and that was marketing online. So I dove in head first and started learning how to market online and generate my own leads that were calling me to find out what I had and what I could do to help them.</p>
<h3><span style="font-size: small; color: #800000;">So, that brings me back to my point about make money and travel vs. travel and make money&#8230;</span></h3>
<p>I realized that there is a lot of money to be made on the Internet and how much of it you make is determined by how you go about making it. You can still do the MLM and make small amounts of money, small commissions, even if you are marketing online you are still only going to make small amounts of money&#8230;</p>
<p>That is when I learned my second lesson. In order to <strong><span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://virgilcook.com/op/grn-squeeze/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">make money and travel</span></a></span></strong>, a person needs to get into a higher ticket business&#8230;</p>
<div class="bluebox   aligncenter" style="width: 500px; border-width: 3px; border-style: solid;">
<p>Let me ask you which way you would want to make $100,000 and which way do you think would be the easiest to accomplish?</p>
<p>Would you want to market $100 products and have to find 1,000 customers to sell to&#8230;?</p>
<p>or would you rather market $1,000 product and only have to find 100 customers&#8230;?</p>
<p>Which do think would be easier to do find 100 customers or 1,000 customers?</p>
<p>Well I know what I have found to be true, and that is 100 is an easier number to find customer, and $1,000 is an easier number to sell products for&#8230;</p>
</div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>So make money and travel. What does all of this have to do with <strong><span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://virgilcook.com/op/grn-squeeze/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">make money and travel</span></a></span></strong>?</p>
<p>How many people do you know that own a Timeshare or that are thinking about buying a Timeshare property?</p>
<p>In most cases they would be able to use that property one week a year? The purchase price would be in the thousands of dollars and sometimes hundred&#8217;s of thousands of dollars. And on top of that yearly maintenance fees, even if they don&#8217;t use the property&#8230;</p>
<p>Do you think those people would buy that timeshare if you could show them a way they could get 10 weeks a year for under $5,000 or 20 weeks each year for around $12,500. Yes and that is a one time cost. No extra maintenance fees and not be stuck going to the same place every year. Could go anywhere in the world&#8230;10 or 20 hot weeks per year.</p>
<p><strong>You want to hear the best part?</strong> Your weeks at these 3,4, and 5 star resorts are only going to cost you anywhere from $399 to $799 per week. Yep that&#8217;s it! Even if you priced these same resorts through Expedia and their best price guarantee, you will be saving 50% to over 90% off their best prices&#8230;</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">Look at a couple examples here&#8230; The first one is a Timeshare property. Now I want you to notice that these are all for the same property, just different means of using them?</span></strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://virgilcook.com/grnretail"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3382" title="villasonthegreen1" src="http://virgilcook.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/villasonthegreen1.png" alt="" width="554" height="554" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000; font-size: medium; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong>The second example is of the exact same property as a rental through Welks Resorts of San Diego and it sells for (I could only find a one bedroom) $3440.88 for the dates of Mar 16, 2012 to Mar 23, 2012.</strong></span></p>
<p><a href="http://www.hoversonleadership.com/grndvd/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3383" title="villasonthegreen2" src="http://virgilcook.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/villasonthegreen2-e1322538551890.png" alt="" width="556" height="349" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000; font-size: medium; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">For my third example I will show you that you can get the exact same unit as the timeshare and the exact same dates Mar 16, 2012 to Mar 23, 2012 as the rental except we can get the two bedrooms through Global Resorts Network that was not available in the example above.</span></strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://www.hoversonleadership.com/grndvd/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3384" title="villasonthegreen3" src="http://virgilcook.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/villasonthegreen3-e1322538369173.png" alt="" width="556" height="298" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>So let me get back to <strong><span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://virgilcook.com/op/grn-squeeze/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">make money and travel</span></a></span></strong>. There are two travel packages available and this is where it gets really good because not only are you saving a bundle on your travel, I am going to show you how you can make money and pay for your travel package almost on your first trip.</p>
<p>Travel package #1 is 10 hot weeks for a total one-time charge of $4,995 and that is for a lifetime membership. 10 hot weeks which are specially priced weeks, but you are not limited to just one week, you can use your membership for 52 discounted weeks per year for life&#8230;</p>
<p>Travel package #2 is 20 hot weeks for the person that likes to spend more of their time enjoying life for a total one-time charge of only $12,500 and again that is for a lifetime membership. No hidden fees, just a lifetime of fun and relaxation. It has been proven that vacations save lives and I couldn&#8217;t think of a better way to do it., can you?</p>
<p>So that is what I mean when I ask <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong><span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://virgilcook.com/op/grn-squeeze/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;">make money and travel</span></a></span></strong></span> or travel and make money&#8230;</p>
<p>Oh, I almost forgot the most important part. While you are out there doing all of that travelling and having fun and enjoying life, you can also be making an almost sinfull amount of money. You could possibly even make more money while you are on vacation than the cost of your vacation.</p>
<p>How can that be, you are probably asking?</p>
<p>Well it is because anytime you sell travel package #1 you make a $2,000 dollar commission and your sponsor also makes a $2,000 dollar commission. So needles to say that if someone you sponsor makes a sale you would also earn $2k as well for each of their sales&#8230;</p>
<p>Now when you sell travel package #2, you will get a $7,000 dollar commission and the so on&#8230;same as above&#8230;</p>
<p>I would like to share a recent webinar between one of my mentors Andrea Goodsaid and the co-owner and  our team leader in this travel business Mark Hoverson. I want you to watch this all the way through because at the end of this video there are some awesome bonuses. These bonuses are availabe between now April 13 and April 21, 2012 deadline.</p>
<p>If you are watching this video after those dates, don&#8217;t be discouraged because we always have more bonuses for everyone. So watch this video, it is a little over an hour but I think you will find a lot of value even if you don&#8217;t purchase anything right now.</p>

<div class="bluebox   aligncenter" style="width: 500px; border-width: 3px; border-style: solid;">
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Here are the bonuses you will get for purchasing your basic GRN membership before 4/21/12…</strong></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">From Mark Hoverson’s Epic Product line:</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>MLM Launch Formula</strong></span> (value = $497.00) – I can tell you that I have this product and it is super. You will learn how to launch products, companies, other peoples products, etc. Well worth a lot more…</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Info-Marketing Blueprint</strong></span> (value = $497.00) – I also have this awesome product that will teach you how to create a caffeine product, create a team, sales letter, etc. again worth a lot more than the $497.00…</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Solomon CEO</strong></span> (value = $297.00) – I do not personally have this product, but what I have heard about it is that it is killer…</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Leadership Branding for Direct Response</strong></span> (value = $297.00) – I do not have this product either, but I can tell you just by the title, that it would be a great addition to your learning tools…</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>3 months of Coaching club access</strong></span> (value = $291.00) – This takes you inside of the workings of Mark Hoverson’s business…</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>45 minutes of one-on-one coaching time with Mark himself</strong></span> (value = unheard of = priceless) – Mark has not done personal one-on-one coaching for a long time. This is totally a lifetime experience…</p>
<p><strong style="color: #800000;">…and that’s not all – Andrea is throwing in these bonuses as well…</strong></p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>$15k in 45 Days Coaching Program</strong></span> (value = $297.00) – Andrea is one of my coaches and mentors and this a very good opportunity…</p>
<p>Andrea will walk you step-by-step personally the exact steps she took to win an affiliate contest that made her $15,396.40+ in commissions and prize money a couple of months ago. I was in that contest as well and I remember how she crushed the competition with her secret tactics…</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>You will also get 8 hours of private one-on-one “implementation” time with Andrea</strong></span> (value = $2376.00)</p>
<p>(this must be used within the first 90 days)</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>You will also get an invitation to join Andrea’s private Mastermind</strong></span> for additional learn/earn and community…</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>AND  your first “Hot Week” trip will be paid for</strong></span> – (only caveat, you must schedule your vacation within the first 6 months of your membership – and do a video testimonial while you are there) (value = $398.00)…</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>That is a grand total of $5,544.00 plus the priceless (45 minute one-on-one with Mark) of bonuses alone</strong></span></span> – not including the value you will receive from just taking your vacations and commissions you can earn…</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
</div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>You get everything listed above as well as the savings just from taking vacations and having fun when you purchase the Basic Travel Package for a measly $4995.00 one-time price&#8230;</p>
<p>We accept VISA, MASTERCARD, or DISCOVER cards&#8230;use one card or put a little on each&#8230;but whatever you do, make a decision right now to get started on your journey to <span style="color: #0000ff;"><em><strong><a href="http://virgilcook.com/grnsignup" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">make money and travel</span></a></strong></em></span>&#8230;</p>

<h2><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;">&#8220;What if I&#8217;m new, and don&#8217;t have a list? Can I still make it online?&#8221;</span></h2>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><strong>Here is a Question from subscriber: </strong> </span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div class="bluebox   aligncenter" style="width: 500px; border-width: 3px; border-style: solid;">
<p>I love getting your emails, and all the tips you give away.  But, I kinda feel like a lot of your stuff works only for people who have an email list.</p>
<p>What if I don&#8217;t have an email list?</p>
<p>Can I still make money online?</p>
<p>And how do I go about building my first email list? &#8211; <strong>From subscriber</strong></p>
</div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">This is a question I get asked ALL the time&#8230; and it&#8217;s a question </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">I&#8217;d ask myself a lot when I got started back in 2008.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;"><strong>Here&#8217;s the thing:</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">If you do want to make a full time income online, then you kinda do need an email list.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">That&#8217;s the bad news.<span id="more-4245"></span></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><em>The good news is</em>, you only need an <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a title="email" href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/incomeondemand/brighttip/vcblog" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">email list</span></a></span> of around 500 people to start seeing </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">some decent results.  And once you get past the 3,000 subscriber point, you now </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">have an asset that can make you a full time living, <strong><em>IF</em></strong> you know how to market </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">to it properly.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Now&#8230; you may be thinking, &#8220;500?  That&#8217;s about 450 more than I&#8217;ve got </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">right now!&#8221; Or maybe even 500 more than you&#8217;ve got right now&#8230;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">But don&#8217;t worry, I&#8217;m going to show you how to get to 500 in just a </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">few weeks.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;"><strong>Here&#8217;s the mistake most people make:  </strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">They look at the &#8216;gurus&#8217;&#8230; people with lists of 100,000 +</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">And they think, &#8220;what chance do I have of ever getting that many leads?&#8221;</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">And that&#8217;s the problem.</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">How do you eat an elephant?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><em>One bite at a time, right?</em></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">So, you don&#8217;t focus on the big number of subscribers that the guru has.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">In most cases, they&#8217;ve been at it for years and years.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Instead, you focus on little numbers, compounded over time&#8230; which eventually </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">grow into very big numbers.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;"><strong>Let me give you an example.</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Say you wanted to build your list to 500 email addresses.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">And say that right now, you&#8217;re getting about 2 or 3 leads per day.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Well, the first step is to start aiming for a number that&#8217;s a small step up from </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">where you&#8217;re currently at.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Let&#8217;s say you aim for just 5 leads a day.  And, you give yourself 7 days to get </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">to that level.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">So with 5 leads per day as your focus, you choose one method for getting traffic, </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">such as Facebook PPC, and you work at it until you reach that daily target.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">And throughout all of this, it&#8217;s crucial that you MEASURE.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">As they say, <strong><span style="color: #800000;">&#8220;what gets measured, gets managed.&#8221;</span></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">If you&#8217;re not measuring, you will not improve anywhere near as fast as you </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">could be.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">So each day, you record the number of leads you got in a spreadsheet.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Once you reach your target of 5 leads a day, <strong>you celebrate</strong>.  </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span style="color: #0000ff;"><a title="email" href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/incomeondemand/brighttip/vcblog" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">It&#8217;s important you reward yourself along the way</span></a></span>&#8230; for me, I like to go watch a Movie or go for a drive through the mountains&#8230;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">If I overcome some small challenge (like hosting a sales webinar and exceeding </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">my sales target), I&#8217;ll get in my car, drive down to the local cinemas, and put </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">my feet up for a couple hours.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Anyway, after you reach that daily lead target, you increase it slightly.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">So, if you&#8217;re now at 5 leads per day, you aim to get to 7 leads per day, within </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">the next week. That may not seem like a huge improvement, but trust me, in the </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">long run, it is.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;">Once you get to 7, again, you go reward yourself.</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">You then aim for 10 leads per day.  And so on.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Are you getting the picture here?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">By making small incremental improvements, you&#8217;ll start to build a decent sized list.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">With just 10 leads per day, for just 7 weeks straight, you&#8217;ll build a list of 500.  Not bad.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">With 20 leads per day, for a year, you&#8217;ll build a list of <em>7,300!</em></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; color: #800000;"><strong>See how these numbers begin to add up?</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Of course, once you build that email list, you need to know how to write compelling </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">emails that get your audience to buy.  </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">And that&#8217;s a whole new skill set in itself, and a very important one.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">That&#8217;s why there is an entire module (module 4) about it in this coaching program, </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">&#8216;<span style="color: #0000ff;"><a title="My Email Marketing Empire" href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/incomeondemand/brighttip/vcblog" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">My Email Marketing Empire</span></a></span>.&#8217;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">You will be shown step-by-step how to craft an offer, and present it in such a way that </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">people not only buy it, but they&#8217;re grateful to you for letting them know about it.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">If you want to build an email list that can support you and your desired lifestyle, then it&#8217;s </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">essential you master <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a title="The skills to master..." href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/incomeondemand/brighttip/vcblog" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">these skills.</span></a></span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">If you ask any big name guru in internet marketing what their main source </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">of income is&#8230; 99/100 will say it&#8217;s<em> their list.</em></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Email marketing is the No.1 skill you need to develop, before you can ever hope to </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">make a decent living online, and I&#8217;d be doing you a disservice if I didn&#8217;t teach you the </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">tricks of the trade.  </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span style="color: #0000ff;"><a title="My Email Marketing Empire" href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/incomeondemand/brighttip/vcblog" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">My Email Marketing Empire</span></a></span> represents over 3 years of &#8216;in the field&#8217; experience, and </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">will quite possibly save you that amount of time trying to figure it out on your own.</span></p>

			</a>
		</div>
<h2><span style="font-size: medium; color: #800000;">A few decades back, a guy by the name of Robert Cialdini wrote a famous book called &#8216;Influence.&#8217;</span></h2>
<div>The book has become <em>the bible</em> of the saviest marketers, because the 6 principles of influence taught in that book can be used to get people to buy lots of your stuff (and enjoy doing so).</div>
<div></div>
<div>
<div>One of these principles is <span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong><a href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/mobe/brighttip/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Scarcity</span></a></strong></span>.  You probably knew that one.</div>
<div></div>
<div>People will naturally pay higher prices for things in limited quantities&#8230;and are much more likely to buy sooner to avoid missing out.</div>
<div></div>
<div>Here&#8217;s my trick question:</div>
<div></div>
<h3><span style="font-size: small; color: #800000;"><strong>Can you name the other 5 principles?</strong></span></h3>
<div>
<p>(I&#8217;ll give you a hint- they start with the letters R, C, S, L, A)</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">If you can&#8217;t, then I have 2 things to say to you.<span id="more-4234"></span></span></strong></p>
<p>1.)  Chances are these techniques are being used on you everyday to get you to buy things, <em>and you don&#8217;t even know it.</em></p>
<p>2.)  If you have an online business, or plan to have one, then by using these techniques, you&#8217;ll be able to make <span style="text-decoration: underline;">5 to 10 times more</span> <span style="text-decoration: underline;">money</span>, in much less time.</p>
<p>NOTE: I&#8217;m only interested in showing you how to use these techniques in HONEST and ETHICAL ways&#8230; without being manipulative.</p>
<p>If you plan on using them for dishonest reasons, please don&#8217;t watch the video below.  Dishonest marketers are always caught in the end&#8230;</p>
<p>This training will be some of the best and most importand you ever get, without knowing these principles, your chances of succeeding online are VERY low&#8230;</p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><a title="Weapons Of Influence Video" href="https://myonlinebizempire.com/mobe/weaponsofinfluence" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">https://myonlinebizempire.com/<wbr>mobe/weaponsofinfluence</wbr></span></a></span></p>
<p>Do you wanna know why I think most fail online?</p>
<p>It&#8217;s because they don&#8217;t understand these principles&#8230; they get so caught up in the latest and greatest techniques and courses&#8230; but here&#8217;s the thing:</p>
<p><strong>&#8220;Techniques are many, principles are few. Techniques will vary, principles never do!&#8221;</strong></p>
<p>Learn the principles, and you&#8217;ll be much more likely to do well.</p>
<p>The reason why the best marketers will show you testimonial after testimonial, is because of &#8216;<span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/mobe/brighttip/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">social proof.</span></a></span>&#8216;</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">So with <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/mobe/brighttip/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">scarcity</span></a></span>, that&#8217;s 2.</span></strong></p>
<p>If you want the other 4, watch this:</p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><a title="Weapons Of Influence Video" href="https://myonlinebizempire.com/mobe/weaponsofinfluence" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">https://myonlinebizempire.com/<wbr>mobe/weaponsofinfluence</wbr></span></a></span></p>
</div>
</div>
<div>So #1 is <a href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/mobe/brighttip/" target="_blank">Scarcity</a> and #2 is <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/mobe/brighttip/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Social Prroof</span></a></span>. Are you ready to learn the other 4. If you are then you need to watch the video above and when you are finished, come back here and leave me your comments. I think you will be surprised at what you learn.</div>

<h2> <span style="font-size: medium; color: #800000;">Hey,</span></h2>
<div>
<p>Here is an email I received from my team leader Jon Mroz, that he received from another team member  here at Empower Network this morning and I thought I needed to share it with you&#8230;</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">I also wanted to tell you this.</span></strong> I got started with Empower Network back in October of 2011 when they first came online.</p>
<p>I signed up for the Basic $25 viral blogging system and was content to bring people in at that level until I started going to these livestream events, a replay of the last one is included in the text below.</p>
<p>What I came to understand was that I was not going to be very successful if I was afraid of spending money. I learned that in order to successfully earn more money, I had to put my fear of losing aside and jump in with both feet.</p>
<p>Here is what I did. On March 20, 2012 I took the leap and purchased the 15k formula for $250.00. Money is very tight so that was a very big step for me to take.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">What do you think happened?<span id="more-4208"></span></span></strong></p>
<p>On March 28, 2012 I had two people order the 15k formula @ $250.00 each for a whopping $500.00 earnings. I was on one of the other livestream events on Friday March 30, 2012 when I had a feeling that I needed to get the Inner Circle product as well, and after thinking, &#8220;I will get it first thing in the morning&#8221; my credit card appeared magically in my hand I purchased it at that very moment instead of waiting.</p>
<p>Seriously, not five minutes later I received an email saying I had referred a new member to the Inner Circle for a monthly earnings of $100.00. This is what I realized at that moment. What I was being told about people will follow you and buy from you when you set an example&#8230;</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">What do I mean by that?</span></strong></p>
<p>All the time I was sitting back there at the Basic $25.00 level, all I was earning was $25.00 and some people were quitting even at that price. When I made the decision to become a leader and buy the products that I knew were fantastic and would help me immensely in my learning curve&#8230; When I decided to become a leader and lead by example, people started following what I was doing&#8230;</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #800000;">As you read the following message from my team leader Jon Mroz</span></strong>, just remember what I just told you about my decision to lead and how it has changed my life so far. At the very bottom of Jon&#8217;s email you will see a Facebook post that Jon included. It is me when I posted to Facebook the message I had received when I made the first of two 15k formula sales that day.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">This is an incredible email and be sure to watch the replay of last nights call. Then be sure to be on the live call tonight at 9 pm New York time tonight&#8230;</span></strong></p>

</div>
<div>+++++++++++++</div>
<div></div>
<div>
<div>
<p>Today, we are on course to have our<br />
biggest commission day yet.</p>
<p>Over the past week, an odd thing has<br />
been happening &#8211; people, just like you<br />
and I have been earning over $1K per<br />
day.</p>
<p>Personally, I&#8217;ve been averaging right<br />
around $1,300 per day with the exception<br />
of yesterday at $2,525.00.</p>
<p>Now, I don&#8217;t tell you this to brag&#8230;<br />
In fact, some of my partners have<br />
doubled and even tripled this.</p>
<p>One of them (who just hit the $5,800.00<br />
mark in a single day) passed along an<br />
email to me that I really related with,<br />
and I just had to share it &#8211; I think<br />
you&#8217;ll find it very entertaining.</p>
<p>This email isn&#8217;t the shortest, but if<br />
you&#8217;re smart, you&#8217;ll read it all the way<br />
thru &#8211; it&#8217;s that important.</p>
<p>Just like you, I heard a lot of talk<br />
about money when I was growing up. Mostly<br />
from grownups who said things like:</p>
</div>
<div>
<p>&#8211; Money doesn&#8217;t grow on trees<br />
&#8211; The love of money is the root of all evil<br />
&#8211; We might not be wealthy but at least we&#8217;re honest<br />
&#8211; Maybe it&#8217;s just not God&#8217;s will for me to have money</p>
<p>Ever heard those? I&#8217;ll bet you have.<br />
You can probably add a few I haven&#8217;t heard before.</p>
<p>In fact, here&#8217;s one that we&#8217;ve ALL<br />
learned.</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>How do I know?</strong></span></p>
<p>Because it&#8217;s a constant theme in every<br />
movie, TV show and book you read:</p>
<p>==&gt; <em>Rich people are evil, mean, nasty<br />
and unethical.</em></p>
<p>Think about it:</p>
<p>Who&#8217;s the bad guy in Harry Potter?</p>
<p>The rich kid&#8230; And his rich dad.</p>
<p>Who&#8217;s the bad guy in Superman?<br />
The rich guy, Lex Luthor.</p>
<p>Who&#8217;s the bad guy in Spiderman?<br />
The rich industrialist.</p>
<p>And who&#8217;s the good guy in these<br />
stories? Always an orphan.<br />
Always someone who&#8217;s been mistreated.<br />
Always someone who thinks money is<br />
unimportant or unnecessary.</p>
<p>Take a look at the movie Titanic: the<br />
ONLY &#8220;good guys&#8221; in that movie were the<br />
poor, broke people down in 3rd class.</p>
<p>And who were the rich people? The<br />
stupid, shallow, rich people<br />
who were all up on first class arguing<br />
about whether to have mint<br />
sauce on their lamb chops.</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>FACT:</strong> </span>We are conditioned to believe<br />
that money is bad and that being broke<br />
is somehow better.</p>
<p>Now, here&#8217;s why I&#8217;m telling you<br />
this&#8230;.</p>
<p>Your mind is like a computer. It<br />
records everything.</p>
<p>And from the time that you and I were<br />
little, our brain has been soaking up<br />
all these opinions about money and wealth.</p>
<p>And even though they&#8217;re completely<br />
untrue in real life&#8230;.</p>
<p>&#8230;.they can prevent you from being<br />
wealthy.</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Think about it:</strong></span> if your goal is to be a<br />
honest, ethical, loving, caring<br />
and generous person&#8230;&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230;.and you believe that having money<br />
will make you evil, mean, nasty<br />
and greedy&#8230;.</p>
<p>&#8230;your mind will not let you take<br />
actions that might increase your<br />
income. You&#8217;ll sabotage yourself every<br />
time.</p>
<p>And you won&#8217;t even know it&#8217;s happening.</p>
<p>Get that. Really get that.</p>
<p>And you&#8217;ve probably experienced this. I<br />
know I have.</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>HERE&#8217;S AN EXAMPLE&#8230;.</strong></span></p>
<p>Picture you&#8217;re sitting at a stoplight<br />
and a beautiful Mercedes 600 pulls up<br />
beside you. It&#8217;s a $250,000 automobile.</p>
<p>What&#8217;s your first reaction?</p>
<p><em>&#8220;Look at that stupid rich prick driving<br />
that big ol&#8217; car. He probably thinks he&#8217;s<br />
better than everyone.&#8221;</em></p>
<p>OR<br />
<em><br />
&#8220;Wow, look at that car! What an amazing<br />
vehicle! Isn&#8217;t it amazing that such a thing<br />
exists! I&#8217;ll bet that is an incredible thing<br />
to drive!&#8221;</em></p>
<p>If your response to simply seeing a<br />
person sitting in a car was to automatically<br />
label them as a mean, evil nasty person&#8230;&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230;&#8230;what does that say about your<br />
attitude about money?</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>HERE&#8217;S ANOTHER EXAMPLE:</strong></span></p>
<p>You&#8217;re looking for a way to create more<br />
income. You want a better<br />
life for your family. So you start<br />
looking for ways to do that.</p>
<p>You find one. You find an opportunity<br />
where people are making tons of money and<br />
where they seem to be having a blast doing it!</p>
<p>It&#8217;s an opportunity to break away from<br />
the herd and start living the life you<br />
deserve.</p>
<p>But&#8230;..rather than jump in, you start<br />
saying things like:</p>
<p>&#8220;Hmm&#8230;it sounds too good to be true&#8221;<br />
&#8220;If it&#8217;s so good, why haven&#8217;t I heard<br />
of it before?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t know&#8230;if I made that kind of<br />
money, I wouldn&#8217;t know what to do about<br />
the taxes.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t know&#8230;..this looks like<br />
something I&#8217;ve never done before.&#8221;</p>
<p>And &#8212; SNAP &#8212; just like that, without<br />
even realizing you&#8217;re doing it,<br />
you sabotage yourself and push away the<br />
very opportunity you were<br />
looking for.</p>
<p>My friend, people go their entire LIVES<br />
in this cycle of &#8220;almost breaking away&#8221;<br />
and then getting sucked back in.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s tragic. It&#8217;s the story of poverty.<br />
It&#8217;s the story of mediocrity.</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><em><a href="http://www.empowernetwork.com/livefromthebeach.php?id=vcook1956" target="_blank">HERE&#8217;S THE SOLUTION IF YOU WANT TO<br />
START LIVING THE LIFE YOU DESERVE:</a></em></span></p>
<p>You have to make friends with money.</p>
<p>You have to stop fighting against the<br />
very thing you&#8217;re trying to get.</p>
<p>You have to be willing to see that<br />
money flows all around you.</p>
<p>You only need to find out where the<br />
money is going and get in<br />
front of it.</p>
<p>You have to realize that money isn&#8217;t<br />
good OR bad. It&#8217;s neutral.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s what you DO with money that makes<br />
the difference.</p>
<p>This is one of the things that we&#8217;ve<br />
been discussing on the Empower Network<br />
webinars this week.</p>

<p>David was dead broke a few years ago.<br />
And he learned how to make friends with money.</p>
<p>He discovered how to call it so that<br />
money would come running.</p>
<p>He learned that money isn&#8217;t good or<br />
bad. It&#8217;s neutral. It&#8217;s what you<br />
do with it that matters.</p>
<p>It is important that you make mental<br />
shifts that will allow you to get rid of<br />
all that negative programming&#8230;.</p>
<p>&#8230;and actually start experiencing the<br />
prosperity that&#8217;s your birthright.</p>

<h2><span style="font-size: medium; color: #800000;">Affiliate Bonus Domination will show you, &#8220;How you can use Facebook ads to dominate in product launches&#8230;&#8221; compliments of my friend and mentor Matt Lloyd with My Online Business Empire.</span></h2>
<p><a href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/mobe/brighttip/"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-3985" title="My Online Business Empire" src="http://virgilcook.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/logo-e1329524886828.png" alt="My Online Business Empire" width="217" height="118" /></a>Towards the end of this post, I&#8217;ll show you a special type of Facebook ad for scooping up easy sales in the big launches using Affiliate Bonus Domination.</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>But first, let me give you the background&#8230;</strong></span></p>
<p>One of the most common questions I get from people is regarding promoting product launches as an affiliate, when you don&#8217;t have a list.</p>
<p>1.) &#8220;Can I still do well and make sales?&#8221;</p>
<p>2.) &#8220;Is it even worth it?&#8221;</p>
<p>3.) &#8220;How can I compete with the gurus who have lists of 20,000 people plus??&#8221;</p>
<p>And they are all good questions, which I&#8217;d ask myself too, back when I was first starting out and had no list.</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Here are my answers:<span id="more-4192"></span></strong></span></p>
<p>1.) Yep.</p>
<p>2.) Sure is.</p>
<p>3.) Easily.</p>
<p>Now let me explain.</p>
<p>First, size is not everything. (guys around the world rejoice)</p>
<p>No, I&#8217;m not talking about <em>that</em>.  I&#8217;m talking about the size of someone&#8217;s list.</p>
<p>Right now, my list is in the thousands. Yet I consistently beat the gurus in product launches who have lists of over 50,000+.</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>How&#8217;s that possible?</strong></span></p>
<p>Because more important than size of your list, is the <em>responsiveness</em> of your list.</p>
<p>Some of the gurus who&#8217;ve built lists of hundreds of thousands, have pummeled their lists for years with offer after offer&#8230; while never adding any real value to the lives of their subscribers.</p>
<p>As a result, there list is <em>pretty much dead</em>.</p>
<p>They send an email to 100,000 people, and are lucky to get 2,000 opens, and a few hundred clicks.</p>
<p>Whereas with my list, I&#8217;ll easily come close to matching those numbers, because I&#8217;ve built a strong relationship with my list, have earned their trust, and they know if I&#8217;m promoting something,<em> then it&#8217;s the real deal.</em></p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>So don&#8217;t get too hung up on the size of your list.</strong></span></p>
<p><a href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/thenewrules/brighttip/enblog"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-4102" title="Click here for Affiliate Bonus Domination webinar" src="http://virgilcook.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/abd_productimage.png" alt="Affiliate Bonus Domination" width="271" height="109" /></a>Now, as for the third question about competing against other affiliates with much bigger lists, (when you have no list at all), let me show you how&#8230;</p>
<p>First, you need to put together a bonus blog, which is a simple Wordpress site that outlines your bonus offer for anyone who buys the product through your affiliate link.</p>
<p>(by the way, I show you how to do this in Module 2 of <a title="Affiliate Bonus Domination" href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/thenewrules/brighttip/enblog" target="_blank">Affiliate Bonus Domination</a>)</p>
<p>And then you need to get traffic to that bonus blog.</p>
<p>But not just <em>any</em> traffic.</p>
<p>You want the <em>best</em> traffic, the traffic of the top 10 and top 20 affiliates in the product launch, that already know about the product launch.</p>
<p>They&#8217;ve already been marketed to.</p>
<p>And in many cases, they&#8217;ve already made the decision they&#8217;re going to buy, when it goes on sale&#8230; or at the very least, they&#8217;re <em>very receptive</em> to the offer.</p>
<p>And then you come along, and say:</p>
<p><em>&#8220;Hey, if you buy from me, not only will you get the product being launched, </em><em>but you&#8217;ll also get my bonus package which is worth $1,997, absolutely free!&#8221;</em></p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>And you scoop up a whole bunch of easy sales.</strong></span></p>
<p>Now the next thing you&#8217;re asking is, &#8220;so where do I get that traffic?&#8221;</p>
<p>Well, one of the places is with Facebook. You target the fans of the top 10 and top 20 affiliates with your ads, which might look something like this:</p>
<p><a href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/thenewrules/brighttip/enblog"><img title="Example of a Bonus Facebook Ad" src="http://myonlinebusinessempire.com/images/eben_bonus2.png" alt="Affiliate Bonus Domination" width="239" height="100" /></a></p>
<p>That&#8217;s an old ad I used for one of Eben Pagans product launches.</p>
<p>You find out who the top 10 and 20 affiliates are, by keeping an eye on the leader boards, which the affiliate manager for the launch you promote will be sending you.</p>
<p>I used an ad just like the one above to promote a launch for Jonathan Budd, which made me 7.5K <em>in under a week.</em></p>
<p>Now, this is just one of dozen tactics I go into in my &#8216;<a title="Affiliate Bonus Domination" href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/thenewrules/brighttip/enblog" target="_blank">Affiliate Bonus Domination</a>&#8216; coaching program.</p>
<p>If you plan on making the top affiliates in the next launch you promote, then you need to learn <a title="How to dominate in affiliate launches..." href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/thenewrules/brighttip/enblog" target="_blank">this method.</a></p>
<p>It&#8217;s what all the top affiliates in the game know, <em>that the rest don&#8217;t.</em></p>
<p>And it&#8217;s the reason why we make 95% of all the money in the big launches.</p>
<p>Come join us, <a title="How to dominate in affiliate launches..." href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/thenewrules/brighttip/enblog" target="_blank">here&#8217;s how.<br />
</a><br />
Talk soon,</p>
<p>Matt</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>P.S. </strong></span>You may be wondering how difficult it is to create your own bonus package.  It&#8217;s actually<em> incredibly easy,</em> once you follow the methods I teach in Modules 2 and 3 of <a title="Affiliate Bonus Domination" href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/thenewrules/brighttip/enblog" target="_blank">Affiliate Bonus Domination</a>.</p>
<p>Once you see these methods, you&#8217;ll be able to create your own bonus package in <em>under an hour</em>, and everyone who sees it will naturally want to buy through you.</p>

<h2><span style="color: #800000; font-size: small;">How To Generate 10,000 Leads In 100 Days By A 24 year old Ex ‘Lawn Mower Man’ and retire on $17K+ monthly &#8211; see how…</span></h2>
<p><a href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/event/brighttip/vcblog"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-4173" title="How to generate 10,000 leads in 100 days" src="http://virgilcook.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/10000.jpg" alt="How to generate 10,000 leads in 100 days" width="273" height="184" /></a>If you believe that you need to be an experienced and talented network marketer in order to make between $5,000 and $10,000 per month (or even more) <strong>you&#8217;ve been lied to.</strong></p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>And I don&#8217;t blame you for taking the bait.</strong></span></p>
<p>You see, the &#8220;old&#8221; way of building a network marketing business meant you had to have a winning personality, be good on the phone and have a lot of money to invest in card decks, 800 numbers and other such advertising vehicles.</p>
<p>But with the advent of the internet, success is closer than you think.</p>
<p>In fact, a young guy from Perth, Australia recruited an entire team, and made over $17,022.85 in under 30 days using the internet alone. He was new to MLM.</p>
<p>He was partly broke after spending over $47,000 on gimmicks that didn&#8217;t work. He was *new* to network marketing.<span id="more-4168"></span></p>
<p>With all these odds as a new and unknown network marketer pushing against him, he&#8217;s now banking a six-figure income per year!</p>
<p>==&gt; <a href="https://businessbuilders.infusionsoft.com/go/event/brighttip/enblog" target="_blank">How To Generate 10,000 Leads In 100 Days</a></p>
<p>Now, if I were him I&#8217;d have just shut my mouth and kept on pocketing those monthly checks. But I think this kind of instant success can make some people dizzy. And now he has honed his recruiting into a step-by-step SYSTEM and is virtually giving it away.</p>
<p>Crazy, huh?</p>
<h3><span style="color: #800000;"><strong><span style="font-size: small;">And why? Here are his 3 reasons:</span></strong></span></h3>
<p>He wants to …</p>
<p>(1) Prove that any half-a-brain can follow his system and repeat his results.</p>
<p>(2) Help rescue the MLM industry from the bad rap it has been getting lately.</p>
<p>(3) Save as many people as possible from the screw-ups he has made along the way.</p>

<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Using his system you&#8217;ll uncover:</strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li>Why traditional methods of Network Marketing are just a waste of time and how to avoid the pitfalls of these archaic techniques. This will surely save you a lot of headaches.</li>
<li>What top money earners know that struggling thousands don&#8217;t have a clue about earning the BIG checks in Network Marketing.</li>
<li>This one will surprise you.</li>
<li>The one tool you MUST have if you are going to succeed as an Internet Network Marketer and it&#8217;s NOT what you think …</li>
<li>The secret to multiplying your advertising budget by a factor of 20 or more WITHOUT spending more of your money.</li>

<h2 style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium; color: #800000;">Empower Network Overview</span></h2>
<p><span style="font-size: small; color: #800000;"><span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong><span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="color: #800000;">This is an </span></span></strong></span><span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong><a href="http://virgilcook.com/empower-network" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Empower Network Overview</span></a></strong></span></span><span style="font-size: small; color: #800000;"><strong> of what products and training is included inside this company.</strong></span></p>
<p><a href="https://www.empowernetwork.com/join.php?id=vcook1956"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-3222" src="http://virgilcook.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/EmpowerNetwork-300x150logo-e1321557447853.jpg" alt="Empower Network" width="130" height="65" /></a>I have been a member of Empower Network since they opened the doors back in October of 2011 and this is an overview of what is available inside once you join.</p>
<p>I originally joined with the Basic $25.00 membership which included the instant set up for you ready to use Viral blogging platform and the eight step core commitment training system.</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;">This by itself in my opinion is well worth a lot more than $25.00.</span></p>
<p>This is the perfect way for a beginner just starting out on their online marketing journey to get a pre-built blog and all of the basic training necessary to start making money online.</p>
<p>Now don&#8217;t get me wrong, I am not saying it is easy. Nothing that I have found having to do with marketing online has been easy. What I am saying is there is nothing better online than Empower Network to get you blogging instantly and learning the proper strategies and techniques you need to get started.</p>
<p><span style="color: #808080;"><span style="color: #000000;">This </span><strong></strong></span><span style="color: #0000ff;"><em><strong><a href="http://virgilcook.com/empower-network" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Empower Network Overview</span></a></strong></em></span>  will show you many other products to further a persons abilities to succeed online as well.<span id="more-4141"></span></p>
<h3><span style="color: #800000;"><strong><span style="font-size: small;">The next tool in the Empower Network aresenal is the Inner Circle.</span></strong></span></h3>
<p>The Inner Circle consists of Audio lessons from a lot of top marketers, some have been marketing online for a long time, while others have just earned their first dime using the tools, startegies, and techniques available with the Empower Network training.</p>
<p>Some of those beginners have gone on to make a five figure income in their first month. I don&#8217;t mean to say everyone will make five figures their first month, but the potential is there if you put it to work for you.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.empowernetwork.com/join.php?id=vcook1956"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-3223" src="http://virgilcook.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/empower-network-100percent-commission.jpg" alt="Empower Network" width="154" height="113" /></a>The Inner Circle is easily in my opinion worth 10 times the price they are charging of $100.00 per month, of which in case you didn&#8217;t know, you earn 100% commission.</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Then you have the Costa Rica Intensive</strong></span>, which is some high level advanced training and strategies from all of the top leaders. The original content was derived from an event that was put on in Costa Rica for a cost of $2,997.00 per person. The content in this course is also worth a lot more than the measly $500.00 one-time cost. This is also 100%commission to you as are all of the products in Empower Network.</p>
<p>The most recent product added to this list of my <strong><a href="http://virgilcook.com/empower-network" target="_blank">Empower Network Overview</a></strong> is the <span style="color: #800000;"><strong>15k Formula</strong></span>. This course consists of 7 lessons so far, for example:</p>
<p><strong>Lesson 1 -</strong> Consists of Social Content Mastery, Value and Entertainment based Blogging, and How to COMPELL others to share your stuff&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>Lesson 2 -</strong> Consists of Syndication Mastery, Automated Viral Syndication Strategies, How To Get Thousands Of Views To Everything&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>Lesson 3 -</strong> Consists of SEO Mastery, Mastering the BASICS of SEO, How to build niche sites &amp; sell stuff&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>Lesson 4 -</strong> Consists of Paid Traffic Mastery, How To Scale Advertising Online, PPC and Solo Ad &#8216;Grass Roots&#8217; Tactics&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>Lesson 5 -</strong> Consists of Offline Sales Magic, How To Sell Stuff Offline, Magic Offline Response Strategies&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>Lesson 6 -</strong> Consists of The Leader&#8217;s Mindset, Advanced Leadership Strategies, How To Move The Hearts Of The People&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>Lesson 7 -</strong> Consists of Bonus #1: Advanced SEO Tactics, Advanced Link Building Tactics, How to get stuff ranked with LOTS&#8230; and lots of links&#8230;</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>There is over 18 hours worth of valuable content jam packed into this course</strong></span> and you can get it right now for a measly $250.00.</p>
<p>This price is only available through the end of March 2012. If you show up one minute after midnight on the morning of April 1st, you will have to pay $1,000.00 one-time purchase price.</p>
<p><strong>I just ordered the <a href="http://virgilcook.com/empower-network" target="_blank">Empower Network 15k Formula</a> yesterday</strong> and I just finished going through lesson #1, which was almost three hours of absolutely awesome content.</p>
<p>The first lesson consisted of valuable content from people like David Wood, Chris Darty, Stephanie Deneke, and last but not least Tracey Walker. Let me tell you guys and gals, this stuff is to die for and that is only the first lesson. I can&#8217;t wait to see what is in the next lessons.</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Even if you miss your chance to pick up the Empower Network 15k formula for the $250.00 price,</strong></span> and have to pay full price of $1,000.00 after the end of March 2012, you would still be getting an awesome deal. I am sure the rest of the course is just as exeptional as the first lesson I just went through&#8230;</p>
<p>But don&#8217;t hesitate&#8230;</p>
<p>Get in now with the Basic membership of $25.00 for the instant blogging platform and training. Order anything and everthing else that you want, because remember when you sell any of these products you will earn 100% of the value of the product. I realized myself that to make the most money, you need to take a leap of faith and get everything&#8230;</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>At the very least, and this is a no brainer&#8230;</strong></span></p>
<p><strong>Order the 15k formaula at the 75% off discounted price of $250.00,</strong> but remember this price is only available through the end of March 2012. After that, the price goes up to $1,000.00 <strong>(you purchase it now and you sell it after April 1st for $1,000 and keep 100% of it).</strong></p>
