I have never been one to sit still for long.  I have an entrepreneurial spirit that never seems to turn off. My mind races twenty four hours a day and sometimes makes me feel a little crazy!  These last few months have been spent on developing a product/tool for the brand new internet marketer.

This tool is called Click For Clarity. I have partnered with eight other successful Internet marketers from around the world. We all have our niche skills and combined them into Click For Clarity. Click For Clarity is a step by step blue print that will take a person that knows nothing about marketing on the Internet and turn them into a selling powerhouse.

The skills that we teach in Click for Clarity have taken us many months of trial and error and many dollars to figure out. All of us have spent thousands of dollars on courses and training that really did not amount to much at all. Yes some of the courses I have paid for may have had a nugget or two but did not contain the value as promised.

I decided that I needed to find some other marketers, with skills that I did not have and make a full spectrum product that will help the new marketer become successful with out spending thousands of dollars and hours behind the computer. I reached out to my mentor, a highly successful marketer, who in turned connected me to eight other individuals to help me the task at hand. Through many e-mails and online meetings we developed the format and product. It took a while to get going as we all had our ideas on what it should look like, how it should be distributed, what kind of content, etc…

We hashed out the details and have developed, what we feel, is a complete A to Z product that will get the new marketer off the ground without spending a bunch of hard earned money and will give the results YOU need.

If YOU want to start making some profit soon we will be accepting a limited amount of people. Check out our website here http:clickForClarity.com and put your contact information in the box and get a free e-book called Through The Forrest of Internet Marketing.  This e-book was written by  our team member Dr. Mac and contains valuable information you need to know about the Internet marketing world.

It was the end of the Bush era regime and I was starting to watch the debates for the upcoming election. I am ashamed to say that in all my 42 years I never have shown much interest in politics and how they effect our everyday lives. I am now 44.

Well, during these debates I kept hearing about this Congressman from Texas, Ron Paul. As I would listen to the debates everything he said made complete sense to me. After most of his statements he would receive applause and the moderators would have to ask the audience to please refrain from applauding.

Ron Paul would always talk about our document, The Constitution Of The United States. I knew about this document from Civics class in high school but really gave it no consideration. I did understand that it was supposed to protect us from tyrannical government so I had no fears of living under tyranny. I always said that tyranny could not happen in the United States.

As I watched more and more of theses debates both left and right, I noticed that none of the other candidates, left and right, emphasized the importance of considering our founding document, when they would vote on new bills. I began to see that both left and right actually carried the same agenda but with different rhetoric.

I began to study our recent past, surveying the agendas and projects of both the left and right. Example: I have found that if the right would pass a new law, the left would put up many arguments in opposition. Then when the left would come into power the law would not be repealed, maybe some minor changes but the law would continue, regardless if it violates our Constitution. This observation works both ways. So needless to say I am not happy with the left or right.

It has become my hobby to read House and Senate bills. This can be an arduous task at times and it also takes some time to research the terminology and legalese of these documents. Some documents I have been working on for months, some of these bills are over 1000 pages.

I’m not saying this is something that everyone must do but if you would take the time to read some of them, your eyes will be wide open. Start small. If you see something on the news, that interests you, look up the bill behind the story. Here is an example: S 510 The Food Safety Modernization Act. They always give these bills Orwellian names. When you read this bill you will find that it will regulate everything down to what kind of vegetables you will grow in YOUR own backyard garden. I won’t go into detail, I will let you discover the tyranny hidden in this bill for yourself.

I created a NewsPortal to help busy people find out how Washington is doing the “end run around” of our Constitution.

In case you missed the link to my News Portal: http://UticaFreePress.com

Here is a news story about S 510

As I woke up this morning, ur brunch time, I began reflecting on what has happened in the last year. I’m no different than anyone else, I have had happy times, sad times, struggles and victories. Through all of that I have always had support of loved ones and team mates.

I began to realize I have never accomplished anything without help from either a friend, team mate, spouse, family or most important God! I am a firm believer that we are placed on this planet with a specific purpose. We are part of God’s plan. Many times we may ask ourselves, How do I fit in or contribute to his plan. Well our part may not be as grandiose as Moses or any of the prophets but our very existence may have an effect on anybody we may interact with.

Just by reaching out and helping someone in need, maybe something very simple that we think nothing about, seems like God’s blessing to the person in need. Maybe just a kind word, or giving someone a ride. Maybe your role in the plan is just to be a parent. What if your child, or someone in your lineage, makes some great change in our world.

I am most Thankful for our God and where he has placed me.

If you want a feel good moment, do something spontaneous. Go rake the leaves in the neighbors yard and don’t tell anyone you did it. You will be amazed at how good you feel when you help someone without any recognition.

These are some things to think about on Thanksgiving day.

What is a Chicken List John? Your Chicken List are the people you have on your prospecting list that you are afraid to call. These may include people that are successful in their business, that you may feel intimidated by.

Let me tell you something. These are the exact people you want to recruit into your business. In my experience these people are sometimes the easiest to recruit. Most of them, not all, are always looking for new opportunities, or advantages. They will also give you a quick answer. I love a person that will give me a quick decision so I can move on to the next. Being a business owner myself I am always looking at new ways to diversify my income and I will look at an opportunity and make a quick decision if I want to get involved or not.

These people on your Chicken List will most likely not need much coaching. When they look at the opportunity and “Get It” and see the same vision that you did when you first seen the opportunity. Just stand back and watch them go.

I have an appointment, tomorrow, with a top earner in a juice company. I am going to give you the exact script I used to get the meeting with him. If he sees the opportunity as I see it, that remains to be seen. At least I will get infront of him and show him what I’ve got. I can not take credit for this script as I learned it from my upline but it does work.

Here is the rule for this script. Use this on the people, on your list, that have no idea that you are involved with whatever company you are building.

You: Hi Name, This is John. How are you? Make some casual conversation to make some connection.

You: Hey I just got involved with XYZ Company and it is going crazy. Do me a favor and if anybody asks you about XYZ Company, promise me that you will get back with me and ask me about it.

Them: If they say “O.K.” That means they are not interested
Them: If they say “What is XYZ Company”? That means they are interested. If they are interested follow up with this.

You: Hey I’m a little jammed up right now, I will have to get with you tomorrow.

You always want to be busy and appear busy, even if this is the only person you are talking with.

The next day, here is what you are going to say.

You: Hi Name, Yesterday when we spoke you asked me about XYZ Company.

Them: Yes, what is XYZ Company?

You: Well it is a ____________ network marketing company, I feel the timing is right and I’m very serious about it. I am talking to the brightest people I know for this business intiative. Do you keep your options open to ways of diversifying your income?

They will not say NO. I have not met a business owner that does not look for new ways to make an income.

Them: What is it about?

You: Well Name, it is difficult to discuss on the phone. At this point you will set up an appointment and give them a presentation, or maybe your company provides an on line presentation, CD or DVD.

I personaly like one on one presentations but I will show you how to handle each of the above.

If you want to do a one on one.
You: Listen,I can give you the details tomorrow. I have two openings tomorrow. One at 10am and one at 1pm. Which works better for you? Great I will see you then and give you all the details. Give them dates and times until they commit.

Never try to explain it over the phone. The least you say the better. Let the presentation do the selling for you.

If you want to send them to a webinar. My primary has a 24 hour webinar but I never tell the prospect that it is a 24 hour webinar. Always get them to commit to a time.

You: Hey Name, we have an on line presentation that is going to start in 10 minutes. Can you get in front of a computer? If they say NO. OK Name we have one at 2pm. Can you make that one? Keep going until you get them to commit. Once they commit say: Great I will call you after the webinar and we can discuss what you liked about it.

If you just want to send them a CD or DVD you can say this.

You: Hey Name, It is difficult to explain over the phone so I would like to send you some information. What is your mailing address? Tell them you will give them a call in a couple of days to see what they liked about it.

This script has worked like a charm for me. Now it is not 100% but it takes the pressure off of feeling like I’m being pushy. This script makes them ask about your opportunity.

Practice this script and put your own spin on it, then go attack your chicken list.

My next post wll be a script to help you with the follow up.

Everyone is talking about the economy. I don’t care where you go. The grocery store, the media, in the coffee shops, in the living room, in the dinning room, in the break room at work, everybody is talking about it. Now I am not an economist and there are a lot of things that I don’t understand about the economy.

I do have a question. Where did all the money go? Where is it? What happened to the money? Remember the commercial for Wendy’s? “Where’s the beef”? My question is “Where’s the money”? I know the money didn’t get piled up and set on fire. I know it didn’t vanish. I know some companies have gone under but they still had billions of dollars of assets and some cash. What happened to the cash? What happened to the assets? I know the earth didn’t open up and swallow all the assets. Ok, some of us lost some of our money. If you were fortunate enough you had a portfolio and your money was in mutual funds, if you are like me, you may have lost 25% to 30% of your money. If you played in the stock market you may have lost up to 50% or maybe you have lost everything, depending on where your money was invested.

Why is it that people are not spending money? Let’s look at it this way. If you are working for someone and they are paying you a check and you get a check every week. Maybe you have $5,000.00 in the bank, it didn’t go anywhere, you didn’t loose anything on that money. Why is it that people are not spending that money? Why is it that people are still getting a paycheck but not buying more?

What is going on in the economy? I believe it is fear! Fear is the reason all this is going on. We are paralyzed both emotionally and mentally. We are in a state of inertia. We are not moving at all. A state of inertia when it comes to our money, I can understand that. A state of inertia when it comes to our dreams, I don’t understand this. I don’t get it. Why is it that people are putting their dreams on hold? I know this is a time to put your money on hold but what about your dreams? What about your plans? What about your vision? What about your goals? Why do you have to put them on hold? I don’t understand.

If you own a small business, I know you are hurting. I can sympathize with you because I am a small business owner myself. I know people are not spending their money at the small businesses. Small businesses are feeling the impact more so than any other group of people. Let me say this. The problem is not in the economy. The problem is not in the debt issue that is going on. The problem is that it is happening in our mind! Everything you have, like your business, is because of the law of “cause and effect”. Basically the “Cause” is your mind and the “Effect” is what you are experiencing.

People are creating things, in their mind, that are not really happening. As a result of that they are afraid and putting themselves in a state of inertia. They are not taking any action. I was speaking with a fellow internet marketer the other day and we spoke for about 20 minutes and the subject of the economy never came up once. He kept talking about how well his business was doing and how much money he was making. He made no mention of people not spending any money. You know why that never came up. Because he is not focusing on that. He is too busy following his plan, strategies, dreams and goals. He doesn’t have time to worry about the economy.

You don’t have to participate in a bad economy! It is the choice you make. I’m not saying that it won’t be difficult at times. I understand what is going on, I understand the impact of what is going on. You know that during the depression there were a lot of people that became very wealthy. They made a lot of money. Do you know why? Because they did not put their dreams, their goals their aspirations on hold. They instead began looking for new opportunities. Yes, new opportunities are surfacing right now. They don’t look like the old opportunities. If you are looking for the old opportunities, they are changing.

What I’m saying is, be vigilant, open your eyes and keep pressing on, keep applying, keep working on your dreams and they will show up. So now you will be like the people that capitalized and took advantage of the Great Depression. I truly believe what is going on is in our minds, it is a state of mind. No condition is permanent. This economy is not going to stay in this condition. It may even get worse but it will rebound. When the economy does rebound, will it find you stuck in your mindset? Or will your mindset be open to capture the new opportunities that will surface?

Did the title catch your attention? Yes Pain is beautiful and you will see what I mean later in this article. No I am not into physical pain. I’m talking about growing pains in relationships and business.

Pain is absolutely necessary in life to guide our actions. Many people new to the business world go into it with a lot of excitement and enthusiasm. They don’t really expect many bumps along the road. A lot of that thinking has to do with their views of people that have already achieved success. Especially in the network marketing arena. These network marketing superstars are placed before us and we are told stories of their massive success. What isn’t shared, at these events, are the stories of some of the pain that is experienced along the way to the top.

Pain is essential for growth in humans for it is a source of fuel we need to move forward. I will tell you right now if you are involved in business, a relationship or life at all there will be pain. Pain is an unavoidable reality of life. Don’t run away. The key to success is to learn how to accept the pain and grow from it.

As much as we try to minimize pain in life, the fact remains that pain is unavoidable. Everything has its highs and lows. Therefore, if we want to succeed in life, the key is not to eliminate pain entirely because that is impossible, but rather to learn how to understand and accept the pain.

What we call “pain” is actually a matter of effort. The effort of physical fitness is painful. The effort of thinking through a complex idea is painful. The effort of building a long-term relationship is painful. From here we see that although effort may be painful, the goal of life should not be to escape it.

If I were to ask you what the opposite of pain is. You may respond, “Pleasure”.
Pleasure is actually not correct. The opposite of pain is “no pain”, the correct term would be “comfort”. Seeking comfort may be nice but you will never find ultimate pleasure if you always avoid pain. I have always found that my successes are always sweeter if I had to experience some growing pains along the way. If you always look for the smoothest path you will miss out on life’s greatest pleasures.

Often, the fear of pain is worse than the pain itself. I’ve watched my children experience the fear of pain at the thought of going to the doctor. Once they receive a shot the pain is over in a matter of seconds but I’ve watched them agonize about the fear of the shot hours before the appointment.

Fear of pain is the greatest roadblock there is. If you’re afraid of prospecting, you’ll never talk to anyone. If you’re afraid of physical or emotional exertion, you won’t achieve, you won’t grow, you won’t find truth.

We all have a choice: Either pay in the pain of trying, or in the emotional pain of knowing you’re too weak to try. For example: If you don’t ask a prospect to take a look at your business, you avoid the pain of refusal – but you have the pain of being a quitter the rest of your life. And that always comes back to haunt a person. Believe me folks, I have been here.

Focus On The Positive

Think about a child playing with his friends. The child gets knocked down and starts crying. His friends immediately call him a “Cry Baby”. What does the child do? Usually the child will pull himself together and get up then continue to play.

By the time the child gets home and shows his parents he most likely will burst into tears! That is a little story from my childhood.

Our happiness in life evolves from how we deal with pain. Many people have learned to give pain a big, “So What!” Others may focus on their pain and just get stuck and never move on from the painful experience.

This is where we must stop focusing on our failures but focus on our successes. Focusing on your failures will cause you undue pain and will prevent you from moving on. We are all created with unbelievable potential and talents, why waste that focusing on our shortcomings?

Here is something to remember when you are experiencing pain: “Pain is passing, results are lasting.” In fact, pain is often just a threshold to cross into a world of pleasure. Those who achieve the most are those who endured the greatest pain. This is why pain is beautiful.

Internet Marketing On The Go

The idea of internet marketing, at least for me was the idea of freedom. The ability to go where I wanted and continue to produce an income weather I’m behind the computer or not.

I am an outside person, so the idea of spending days on end behind the computer made me very crazy. In the beginning I did spend a lot of time mashing the keyboard trying to get internet marketing figured out.

Ideas for marketing seem to hit me when I’m not anywhere near my computer and my mind is a million miles away from internet marketing. I’m sure there is some psychology behind why this happens. Anyway, I scramble for a notebook or piece of paper to jot down my idea to put on my blog or to create an article out of and then stuff it in my pocket.

Usually the next time I see that note pad or piece of paper is in the clothes dryer wadded into a tight ball and the note no longer legible. I then remember that some stellar idea struck me and I had to write it down. If only I could remember what I wrote! Ugh!

Now I have remedied my dilemma. My Blackberry has everything on it that I need.

I have WordPress on it. I can create blog post directly on my phone and submit my posts immediately. As a matter of fact that is how I’m writing this post right now. My kids are doing their Martial Arts training and I’m adding content to my blog.

Here are some links to the tools I use on my Backberry.

Docs to Go

Twitter For Blackberry

WordPress For Blackberry

Facebook For Blackberry

Check out the tools available and use them so YOU can get out and get a little fresh air and get the blood pumping again.
