The BigWave Movement: A Different Way To Prospect & Grow Your Business

Posted on by

Hi All, We told you some big things were coming for 2012, so here is the first of many. Whether you are on my personal team or a awesome members of my primary company, we are getting ready to make shift to help YOU catupult your buinsess into a whole new level for 2012. I have shared part of the idea with some of you on a previous conference call I conducted, but not all of you were on the call so in this post, I want to outline exactly what we as are team are aiming to contribute to field plus what I am looking for from all of the potential participants. That means you. If you want to be part of this fresh project which I am referring to as The BigWave Movement, keep on reading.

We have many prospecting strategies and multiple tools to utilize. Things like Mueller’s Tax Brochures, Robert Kiyosaki CD’s, Garage Full of What Audios, Webinars, Sizzle Calls etc, All of these are valuable and I use as well. However when I step back and think about it, all of these tools tend to lean heavily on money, product(s) or a company profile or a detailed compensation, primarily. What several of the leaders and I have come to conclude is that 9 times out of 10 the real essence of “why” we build is overshadowed by the logic, details, numbers and sometime hype surrounding the “what” we do in our industry. So we decided to try something completely opposite. We believe it’s time to re-focus on the people. Bring it back to the fundamentals of humanity. Emphasis what matters and connects us all as teenagers, middle agers, singles, newlweds starting out, couples w kids, retirees, grand parents etc.

We agreed that the “who we are as people” and similarity of “what we truly desire” would be a refreshing introductory platform to expose our business when talking to new propects in 2012. So instead of extoling all the virtues of compensation only or logical product features solely, we create a tool that talks to them (our prospects) about about them as a them and not as a us. It would be no longer us doing this (business thing) and convincing them to do it too, but showing prospects that what we desired is the same thing they currently desire -and we found a way to acquire it. This flow would put guards down, get you out of sales mode and get people to tell you honestly if infact they are wanting to know what we know to experience what we are experiencing after watching it. The idea is resonante with them first then educate them after. So what is the project? A simple, short powerful engaging video that intruiges them to ask more info…and voila this is where you can get involved if you choose.

For those of you who would like to participate, and be play a role in this collaborative effort (The BigWave Movement) creatng a different kind of propsecting video, here’s what our tem is looking for from you:

_______________________________________________________________________

1. Record a personal 1-3 min video answering these 4 questions below.
a) What your background culture or occupation is. b) Who you are in one or two descriptive words. c) Where you want to go in life and why?
2. Make sure you’re in a well lit or naturally lit environment. HD is prefered but not necessary.
3. Upload it to YouTube and sent to the email bigwavemovement@ gmail.com  by Feb 1st the latest (I’m extending the original time specified when I talked to several of you so this gives you more time to be thoughful)
4. Attach your permission to use this footage in our final edit and you’re done!

The essence of this project is for you to be natural, sincere and real so you’re tell someone who listens to it what matters to you as a real person. (not a network marketer) That’s what I am after so we can them find the best parts to express it in a edited polished 7-8 min final video. A video you can direct your prospects to before bomabarding their minds with info they’re not ready for. It so they can connect with others, qualify themsleves & save you time if they are not after the same things.
Again this is a completeley volunteer project and obviusly reserved only for members of Bigwave Marketing Team and of course exclusive to those active reps in our primary company.

Note: I am looking for qa min of 40-50 videos to select from. Not everyone’s video will be used so the more submitted, the better the end product will be.
I look forward to your contribution & thank you in advnace in enhancing the industry experience for all. (Please reply under this blog asap that you are interested in participating so I can keep track and record of your video you are sending to me)

Let The BigWave Movement begin..

The Value & Importance of a MLM Mobile App for your Business Growth in 2012

Posted on by
47

Hey fellow reps, I am writing this post 3 nights before embarking on our 3rd FREE incentive trip paid by our awesome primary company (Numis Network) and before joining approx 180 other winners and leaders this weekend. Jan 7-13th. Suffice it to say we cannot wait.. Now while we will be spending 6 glorious days and 5 luxurious nights aboard The Jewel of The Sea having fun, eating good food (some heathy too) dancing, laughing and making lifetime memories…there are two things to note. A) It won’t be the same without you there so make sure you qualify next time but B) it won’t be all play time.

Continue reading to see what I mean exactly.

I have learned from the co-founders directly that we will be enjoying some specifically designed and scheduled team building sessions. We’ll be game planning, dream building and some of us even leadership strategizing over a few hours while we sail across the gulf on Mexico enroute back to Tampa. “Yeah, you bet I’m pumped!” Which brings me to the point of this blog today. For a while now I have been absorbed with the idea (which I can’t shake) and have zealously shared with our forward thinking owners that the need for a mobile application just cannot go unanswered or unmet. Even with the exceptional growth of our company in the past 27 plus months, the opportunity for greater growth by having a mobile app would impact greatly our business on many fronts. Increased market and product reach, speedy support and training and of course dynamic rep usage/ daily application in the field. It is my strong belief that our very own unique mobile app would explode what we are already doing in North America and UK. There would be no other mlm company pioneering graded precious metals along with a mobile app. A second first for us!

So why am I writing about this topic before my free cruise?  I plan on sharing some actual data with the owners on the ship this weekend from you the active reps building in the field.

We all know and agree that the modern trend of personal computing has revolutionized business. But what many may not know is how powerful the modern day smart phone and now newly termed, “super phones” are impacting media, business and even our network marketing industry. We can say it this way: Mobile is transforming the way people do business and adapting to this change is vital. 1.2 billion apps were downloaded during the holiday week between December 25-31.Over 85% of people get their information to their mobile devices first then to their pc After which, when they get home they proceed to jump online. Tons of users engage in mobile activities like web purchases, gaming, banking, travel  and of course let’s not forget a little trend called social media. I rest my case.

Today I am asking for 10 sec of help and for you participate in a short survey below. Maybe you are just finishing your day or starting your January work week. Here it is: Simply leave me your feedback / responses and or thoughts to the questions listed below via the reply button found at the bottom of this article. I will gather all the data I can and present factually our findings of app relevance, timing and interest level to corporate while we cruise next week. So let’s find out just how important having Numis mobile application is to you for your business success in 2012. Thanks in advance for your feedback.

SURVEY ON THE IMPORTANCE OF A NUMIS MOBILE APPLICATION
1. Do you engage in mobile applications on your cell phone currently? Yes or No?
2. Would you agree that you use your cell phone to access more than 50% of your daily information? Yes or No?
3. Do you carry your cell phone with you wherever you go? Yes or No?
4. Would having a mobile app give you reason to share you business with others easier and faster? Yes or No?
5. Would features like sales reporting, BV volume, new rep enrollment and training be valuable to have at the touch of a button? Yes or No?
6. If you knew your cell phone was like your mlm cash register, would you check on your back office more often during the day? Yes or No?
7. Would you consider purchasing a Numis University ticket, extra coins or more support tools via your phone if it was available? Yes or No?
8.Does the idea of receiving text notifications when you get paid or when reps reach new rank levels be beneficial? Yes or No?
9. If you ran into another mlm rep (competitor) who has a company mobile app, would you be slightly jealous? Yes or No?
10. Would you like to see our company (Numis) develop a mobile app in the near future?
Yes or No?

TODAY’S MOBILE STATS EXPLAINED SIMPLY

Let’s commit to making 2012 a historic year with our amazing Numis Network co-founders. Let’s help make this year your break-out and breakthrough year with more of you getting free, living the the dream lifestyle and enjoying a lot more free incentive trips sailing with Numis Network!

5 Unmistakable Ways to Know if You’re an MLM Guru…

Posted on by

Struggling to get real results in your network marketing business? Bought every cd series, ebook training and gone to every high cost motivational event across the globe? Have you even tried to emulate the top gurus in the industry and haven’t cracked the code?
Well today I’m going to expose 5 myths that can make the difference for you. You see the truth of the matter is you don’t have to be or become a guru to start making money and build a massive team. Actually if you grasp these truths in the following lines, you will never want to be a guru at all.  So how do you know if you’re doing things like guru and how to do the opposite…keep on reading.

You know you’re an mlm guru when…

1.) You never pick up the phone to speak to any one in your front line or down line team because that is for amateurs. Leaders who have contributed to the idea that to be a big player in mlm is by not taking calls or answering there phone are dead wrong. Not only will they seriously cripple their long-tern checks but more importantly training there teams for stunted growth because no one will ever pick up the phones to connect with other prospects.

2) You want to let a system replace your human touch and automate “everything”. No system as good as it is will ever do everything. The key to building a long-term thriving organization is connecting with people and your team. In the network marketing industry there are many systems that can solve problems but the one thing it cannot do is the build relationships. It is these key relationship that produce great leaders and ultimately monetary success into the future. The legendary John Maxwell has quoted “people don’t care how much you know, until they know how much you care.”

3) You view your group only as another big transaction when a new affiliate “flavor of the month program” comes out. This one really irritates me…When a so called guru only sees their team, group or list as a dollar signs ($) in my opinion they are committing a relational crime of trust. People who take advantage of their people by using their influence base and platform just to keep selling the latest and greatest or every program under the sun, confuses and hinders team growth. While tools and affiliate of value are worthy to be promoted, the  real issue is the motive of that guru so-called leader. Good people who feel taken advantage time and time again will eventually quit and look for some one who won’t manipulate them but actually provide, protect and produce with and for them. This is true leadership!!

4) You have amazing skills to do what you do BUT no one else on your team can duplicate you. I’ve found that the greatest leaders in this industry in fact do have have amazing skills and abilities. They are exceptional presenters, great connectors and constant closers. However the liability I have also witnessed is these very skills not being transferred and passed on to others. The danger in being the “guy” or “gal” that is the only one, means that you are an anomaly or as we are discussing the un-relatable “guru” In order to have true duplication which leads to massive residuals many years into the future  is by not being the only person who can do it. That’s where walkaway income becomes  a reality. So teaching others to do is the 1st part of the secret and then teaching others to teach is the 2nd part…that’s a smart network marketing leader!

5) You have a network marketing job because you’re always the super hero and have to keep performing to sustain your income. Having a job is one thing but many gurus simply have the same by not  duplicating their skill to their team. A network marketing job isn’t desirable either.  Who wants that? By being the sole guy or gal that does it all, the genius, the magic, the there is no duplication and as a result to freedom. However by training others to do what you do and better is how you have the very thing network marketing is all about. Freedom. “True Leadership is defined as making yourself increasingly unnecessary.”

So think you still want to be a guru,…thought you have a different perspective. Really the path to super star levels in any network marketing business is all about possessing  people skills, taking personal organic action daily, not taking advantage or your people, thinking about the interest and well being of your team and duplicating yourself by raising up other leaders.

Grand Checks, Grand Trips, Grand Duplication!

Posted on by
Reply

This was day #1 of a 7 night western Caribbean cruise we took in August 2010 after a 2 day business trip for leaders in our network marketing company. Our first port-of-call was Grand Cayman, and as we sailed, across North America and Canada we had “grand duplication” taking place in our network marketing business. What a concept of making money while sailing from island to island on the open seas.

We were away a total of 11 days on the open seas… enjoying nothing but sun, sea and salt. Without any real business schedule, we ate everything in sight, slept in til we were done, danced the nights away in exotic ports, and limbo-ed into the sunset. The best part though was returning home amazingly not to bills, but four awesome commission checks that blew us away. I turned to my wife and said, ‘we need to take more trips!”

Is it possible? Yes. Can anyone do it? Absolutely! Will we teach and show you how? You bet!!

You see the real point of even building a network marketing business is the ability to have both time & income in perfect harmony. The choice to control your own schedule any day of the year. to be able to go do what you want when you want with whom you want. The word is called freedom. It’s a far-fetched concept for some lol and a foreign concept for those still tied down by their pagers and hand cuffed to the cell phones. Even highly ambitious  leaders in our industry who don’t train others to lead will only have a big “network marketing” job.  A job being the only secret guru or magic component  in their opportunities and thus they can’t get away from the grind of being a personal recruiting machine. Sound familiar? If they are always there, their business continues to boom but if not the production ceases.

So what’s the solution: DUPLICATION!

You must build others, develop teams and duplicate yourself in your current business opportunity. Simply build a business on helping others get what they want. Make the focus in duplicating teams and leaders the goal. Back those leaders up by other teams and leaders, then watch the world of possibilities open up for new found freedom. The sky will become the limit to the level of control YOU have over your calendar and schedule will amaze you. Travel frequently and with your families  and come back home to a mailbox filled with checks! Now wouldn’t that be cool?

You ready to live life on your terms? If so, this is just the beginning and we look forward to sailing and traveling the world with whoever wants to come with us..

So who wants to build your network marketing business from island to island… Port to Port….Success to success? Weekly check to weekly check?

Start building a residual income on the open seas by building teams on land. Come back to checks and a bigger teams  and more freedom all through TEAM DUPLICATION!!

I Just Can’t Lose With Leaders Like These!!”

“I just can’t lose with leaders like these!”

Yes this statement is the title of my recent blog post. Why? Because it is exactly how I feel. And I wanted you to think about whether you have leaders like these in your business or primary company?

In ten plus years of building teams and developing a networking business model, I’ve seen alot things happen. Some great & some not so great. I’ve heard alot of promises made and seen may of them go unkept.

Many have promised support and unwavering assistance only to come up short on integrity and accountability. But what I have found in my current primary company is nothing but the complete opposite. I have been amazed with the level and quality of support that has been extended to me and  my team.

You see, I just have never ever met finer leaders than now. All of which have not only the utmost integrity and commitment but also an unparalleled work ethic and rock solid discipline. Leaders like Cedrick Harris, Larry Beacham, Ray Higdon and Chris Paraldi are some of those those first class business men to whom I am referring that have radically inpacted my results in the last 24 months.

One of these top earners is specifically will be flying up to meet me and my city-wide team up here in Toronto this week; His name . Christopher Paraldi. Even though I am miles away, he is still traveling on his schedule and on his dime to invest in my organization. Wow. What an honour to have this immense support and outstanding mentorship available in the network marketing industry.

Truly it was this one component I was always searching for in previous opportunities. Now I can say unequivocally and undeniably declare that I have the a dynamite company, the freshest product AND STELLAR  LEADERSHIP!

If you’re looking to align yourself with great leaders, top earners, and dynamic producers, please contact me by phone TODAY at 416-882-5122
or send me and email and I shall call you back personally.After all I know you want to win just the same as I am now.

Thank you Cedrick for your unwavering example and that amazing first “12hr conversation” 2 years ago!

Thank you Ray for serving me and my team a few months ago and consistently setting the leadership pace!!

Thank you Larry for all the value you constantly deliver to me and others around you!

Thank you Christopher Paraldi for coming this week to make history in Toronto
