Let’s ask you.

Are you in your company for the long run?

Let us take you back to 1994 when we joined our company. I was a 2 year stage 2 cancer survivor back then and we knew we wanted all of the “ammunition” we could have to protect myself from a reoccurrence.

We also were familiar with residual income and network or direct marketing. Notice I said “familiar”, not seasoned.

Those were the days that we were making shakes at the Del Mar Hilton and having meetings at private homes .

Our dear friend signed us up and in turn we signed up a few people, but quite frankly the most important factor was we did not know what we were doing. Some people call it Learn while you earn!

I recall one of our business partners, her husband made a Vow!!! I am going to crack the code of Network Marketing. There is a magic Bullet.

We went to a John Kalench seminar in Northern California, listened to a variety of tapes, and read a number of Systems that were in place from other savvy networkers. What were the other Gurus doing?? The problem was that it was something different each and every week!!

We opened up in Canada and oh my! That was a challenge within itself. Border issues, product that seemed to come by a ferry boat, will it ever get here, sent back product. You would not believe the issues. I lost a few people back then.

We also lost one of key partners who passed away.

I worked the cold market or Internet Marketing and signed up a person or two.

There were some people who fell out, they became impatient and it was not happening fast enough. There were some that they thought the grass was greener on the other side. An interesting and very exciting thing happened. Most partners did not go off the product. Did we have a unique stand alone, no comparison product here?? Hmmmmm

And then it happened!!

The Distraction……..

The high end caterer my husband and I worked for needed our expertise, management, and talent and that consumed more hours in a day.

We also looked at other businesses; maybe I could make money faster and easier like a pet recovery business. Wrong!!!

I could write a best seller on that subject.

In 1999 we attended the International convention,We had not been to one for the previous two years and we came back with a fire in our hearts!!

We looked at our business and the numbers we saw were amazing!! Wow! One side was exponentially Booming !!

It was one person I signed up from Internet Marketing that signed up a dynamic couple and they signed up a couple with a Huge Health story and they took the business to the moon!

We read books, participated in conference calls, attended events and celebrations! We became savvy networkers.

We realized the POWER of residual income. The true understanding of leverage and the POWER of direct Marketing!!

And I was now a 7 year cancer survivor!! Where did that time go?

More importantly we understood this is a journey not a destination.

When we sign up partners now we explain to them our journey and we tell them if we could inject all that we know and feel about these products, company, business, and industry you would have the confidence, persistence, and fortitude to share this gift with all!!

Plus they would stay in the company for the Long Run!

Just like our new beginnings we were not on the product long enough to show the “Passion:We were Newbies in all aspects and our Team did not have a Story nor a journey or path they went down much less even a mentor who was seasoned.

We look back now and we tell people in the beginning you have a Little Vision and a Little List.

Expound your Vision and Your List!

Who do you know? The Memory jogger.

Listen to the people you meet each and everyday and share this gift!

Work the Internet Marketing avenue. It is a college education.

We are asked daily we need more people to talk to. We tell them Get creative!

We feel now we are one of the Greatest Networkers on the World, if you have ever read that book, if not Do it NOW!

We have gone through a journey, a road less traveled and we assure our people everyday, especially the new people and those that are thinking of joining,It is a process, a marathon, not a sprint!

Yes there will be forks in the road, Do Not Give Up 5 minutes before the miracle happens!

We are now Gold Directors!

And I am a fifteen year cancer survivor!

Today we have a Global business, a wealth of knowledge, and we have added another avenue to excel our business well into the future, online business building and online presence!

How are you set for YOUR future?

Do you have multiple streams of income, is one of them residual? Do you have Time and Financial Freedom? Do you have optimum Health? Are you the best you can be?

Are you in your company for the Long Run?
