How Human Beings Come Alive & Perform Better in Network Marketing

Posted on by

That title caught you off guard didn’t it? You probably thought “what do human beings and their wiring have to do with network marketing or my business?” Actually.. everything. Of course as human we assemble, build construct and wire things, but we are also built and engineered a certain way to operate. If we are to have optimum success in our lives and busines there is a fact we must embrace. We have to build each other. You see network marketing is not a solo sport but a team one and the primary function all successful leaders engage in and eventually master is the building of people. Specifically, raising their belief and getting them to take action. In this blog I’ll highlight 5 areas  we as human are wired for and how we can get optimum peak performance to benefit our business and this industry.

As we just concluded the video submission deadline for our Bigwave Project yesterday Feb 1st 11:59pm. I have been amazed at not only the response but the affect it has produced. Scores of videos are still pouring in and what people are saying is blowing us away. Now I have to be honest, I knew it would illicit some of this interest but the other dynamic I’m noticing is the far more amazing. What I see happening is truly a movement being birthed and non-orchestrated. A movement where different members on our team with no financial tie or gain are acknowledging, affirming and pulling the best out each other. It has energized and electrified those who for a while have been abashed, apprehensive and afraid to truly get their business off the ground. People are getting involved in their own success rather than waiting passively for a feeling or miracle to happen.
So what changed?
The change is, we began hearing instead of just talking. And this has created a spark between us (humans) that is very familiar and central to our make up. You see we are really not that complex at all, but we’ve made ourselves complicated. It’s really not hard to grasp although it eluded many bright and intelligent people for years. Simply put: we all crave and desire the same When given a chance to speak or express ourselves we learn two things. a) we may in fact want different things but b) are all in hot pursuit of the same result. This is what I witnessed from many reps participating in the WMTYM video project. The amazing phenomena is that this wasn’t even part of the intended result. We haven’t even produced the prospecting film yet from the content but already the value, insight and benefit of this corporate process has been seen and felt. Someone described it as a pebble thrown in a pond, but these are the ripples that actually eminating from it. But why the ripple?

Human beings have basic needs and guess what, because you’re one of the species, you have these innate desires inside you. Any serious person seeking change must discover it if they are to operate beyond the level they are currently at. No I am not talking about the needs for cars, houses, clothing or even money. Those are good basic needs to have and I want them too. What I am speaking about is a sense of who you are, why you are and the significance your life represents to others. So many people believe just simply breathing is living and acquiring things is success but it’s more. You’ re not incorrect – just incomplete. Expression is life. Choice is life, Togetherness is life. Freedom is life. It’s what’s deeply rooted within us but as we grow up and the older we get, the more it gets drowned out by life. All the negative programming and events dampen our dreams. However, something simple as asking a question has in the last 7 days begun to reawaken that meaning. In many reps it has brought clarity back where they had grown foggy and unclear about what they truly want. For me and my wife this has been a defining moment in our busines and journey with our team.

Here are just a few codes we as humans thrive on and connect with others on. I’ll defne them simply:
1. FAMILY & COMMUNITY – a major common thread woven in the videos.
2. PURPOSE & MISSION – a strong goal many mom’s and dad’s desired.
3. CONTRIBUTION & SIGNIFICANCE -a burn for those wanting to give more in life.
4. PARTNERSHIP & RESPECT – the universal emancipator of any rep part of a team
5. LOVE & UNDERSTANDING the bond that centers us all regardless of culture or creed.

Each of these core values is what hard-wires us and programs us for achievement. And when we disconnect or have one of these wires faulty or slightly loosened, the effect can be devastating. People go through their entire lives missing the signals and symptoms in others because their own wires are dislodged. Even as network marketers who have high ambitions and aspirations possessing great talent and skill, without understanding this emotional mechanism, you’ll stall others and delay your own success.

We believe it’s time to get back to BASICS. Return to the fundamentals of LIFE. Rediscover yur WHY. Simply by asking the question we asked in this video project ”what matters most to you?” we have re-connected some people back to their greatness. They are finding their souls again and new meaning for their business.  Now clearer, focused, and disciplined they can be way more effective in their daily business production. Make no mistake it 100% comes down to production, (what we do) but when the a human spirit is not well, sick or uncertain, no amount of information or logic can cure that ailment.

Today think about your families, reflect on your kids, cherish the minutes you have while you can be and do for them. Look at other humans (prospects) as you would want them to see you. Not only as a transaction or financial object, but as a life full and abounding with great potential. When you adopt this philosophy into your routine, then you’ll see how humans really work (together) how they are wired (internally) and how they come alive to become the best they were meant to be.

Thanks for all of you who participated. We are looking forward to producing this video production. I leave you with this final thought today, ‘‘You were designed for greatness and engineered for success, go live out your unique blueprint and not someone else opinion”. -Erwin Mcken

An Interactive Blog Post: What Are Your Top 3 Goals of 2012?

Posted on by
27

Over 90% of people never succeed not because they are not capable or lack talent, but because they never start. Procrastination kills dreams and suffocates goals.Today in this first blog of this brand new 2012 year we’ve been blessed with I want to help you overcome procrastination. I say blessed with because we all are privilegded to be here to see it. Many did not and many who are alive still don’t see the blessing in this new year. (some will get that later)  Here’s what I am going to do today: I am going to challenge you to do the first and foremost thing that all serious people, champions and network marketing leaders do privately and publicly to stop procrastination. A) To declare your goals and B) to get started  in achieving them. What all serious individuals do is they just plain take the raw action and get the job done! You see for some the number on the calendar just changed, but they haven’t, But the truth be known you have a powerful opportunity to hit the “reset”  button. Hitting the reset button is your chance to start fresh and embrace a new 2012 year for all of what you want to see happen that perhaps never fully manifested  in 2011. So how do you do it?

The first thing is to attack the fear or repetitive apathy of “never getting around to it” You must retire from making excuses and hold yourself to this new standard. You’ve heard people say all the time, “I’ll do it when I get around to it” right? So here you are on this 1st week of January…I’m giving you a (round tuit) today LOL  and telling you that in order to give yourself a greater chance of achievement in 2012 you must start, speak and declare the goal to others if you’re going to have a fighting chance at success. Secondly, you cannot hit a goal you have not set nor can anybody encourage you to that goal if they do not know it. So if you’re already a step ahead and done this – great. If not, get moving and hit the reply button after you finish reading this post and share them with our community  But also commit to encourage others around to do this same exercise. I’ll start it off but before I do I must share below what I am grateful and thankful since the beginning of last year. Then I will post my 2012 goals as promised in the reply feed to set the pace and  example. Of all the great personal and business-related accomplishments of 2011 here are a few that top the list.

I am grateful and thankful that I have a wife Eva (my business partner) that has been with me by my side supporting me and our team 150% I couldn’t have made it with out her.

I am grateful and thankful for good health and the health of loved ones around me.

I am grateful and thankful that I was shown Numis and given the chance to participate in the free enterprise system rather than be controlled economically all the days of my life.

I am grateful and thankful that I have been the recipient of so many great leaders in our team over the 2011 year. We have over 1200 reps and many leaders nation wide too many to list but you know who you are.

I am so thankful for great business mentors, spiritual leaders and the special behind the scenes relationships that inspired us daily.

I am grateful & thankful that all the wealth and finances we required have met all our needs of 2011. It’s amazing how the power of intention causes things to show up.

Finally I am grateful and thankful for a Divine Creator that gave me a dream and a desire to never quit and for a vision that included you in 2011.

I trust you are also thankful as you start 2012. The only real way to set goals is out of a place and position of deep gratitude. You ask how does that work? Simple. By lifting your hands in thanks for what you have (regardless of how small) you open up your hands powerfully to receive what you thought you could never attain. I am proof-positive this works and know a host of people with this same testimony. Write your goals and share them here in a reply today. It’s my prayer you have that fire in your belly for your family, business and future in 2012. I sure do.

“To 2012 and your goals fulfilled!!”

We had a sensational time the other night in our condo party room. Many of our local Toronto Numis reps got together to celebrate the season as a team. The night was filled with good food, good laughs, great reflections of 2011, visions for 2012 and a wonderful surprise from we were not expecting.

Under the diligent creative and masterful controls of Firas & Suha Abouzeid, they secretly produced a smashing and impactful video that simply took our breath away. Eva and I were simply delighted to have our reps show up. But to be surprised with this heart-felt video contribution was truly the best Christmas gift we could ever have imagined and received from our team in 2011.

Rather than trying to explain it in words, I’m just going to show it to you and let you see what Firas & Suha secretly  put together without Eva & I  even having a clue. Simply amazing. Extremely touching.

Just click on the video below and get ready to feel the passion of Our team!

The Basics & Fundamentals of a 3-Way Call

Posted on by
Reply

In this blog post I want to cover the value and importance of implementing 3-way calls. This applies  for you and any other serious rep you know who may be seeking to have more reps, better quality reps and sponsor them faster in your primary business.

The 3-way call is more than just three people on a phone call. It is a powerful strategy for increasing a reps ability to enroll more reps by using the credibility of a 3rd party (usually more successful than themselves). It is a valuable art and science that many aspiring well meaning reps eager for success are simply overlooking.

If you’d like to increase your sign ups starting today, then let us examine (3) key points:

1) What a three way call is. 2) When to use a three way call and 3) why they work so well.

To put it simply a three-way call is where you have 3 people on the phone who are in different locations. They will obviously be you, your prospect and your calling partner aka your successful “edifiable upline.” They are going to be the one speaking to your prospect on your behalf for multiple reasons which I will outline next. A few things to remember upon enrolling in your new opportunity is to list and record all the cell numbers of your calling partners/ successful uplines so you know how to reach them.

When do you use a three way call? Three ways are very useful to accomplish various goals. The obvious one is tho handle and deflect any high level questions you cannot handle the tough objections. You can use them to welcome a new rep to your team.

Above all of the reason evident to use 3 ways the one powerful thing it does  demonstrate is support within your team by clearly showing the rep that they too can build the business. Because if they can get people on a three way call as well, then they can build the program. They will clue in that you are saying very little and the upline is the one doing the explaining, so since people tend to duplicate what they see, this is exactly what they will do in the future. This is POWERFUL in network marketing as it related not only to 3 ways but fundamentally you growing a massive organization and massive residual income.

Why do Three Way Calls Work? Here’s why and why they are of utmost importance not only  in network marketing but in really any business dealing where multiple people are involved.  I shall give you the simplified understanding without going into the high level psychological explanation. Whenever people want to be most persuasive with other people, two elements need to be present. Trust & Respect. One without the other is not as effective as with both. While a rep may have the trust of a potential prospect they may not have the business respect required to close the deal. By bringing in a third party you trust & respect who also has the expertise and authority to speak on a business level, you are increasing the odds because this speaks to the prospects intellect, logic and emotion. The pressure comes off you and is placed on the third party individual.

If you haven’t done any three way calls with your business leaders, start today. If your leaders are truly leaders in your company they will welcome them whole-heartedly and you will see your results skyrocket. Don;t do all the heavy lifting. Work smart not hard.  get out of your way and experience faster success with the power of a well done three way call.

Here is my mentor and upline leader Ray (whom I have done many 3-way calls with) break it down even further explaining the right way & wrong way not to do a 3-way call.

Talk with you soon. on your next 3-way call!

Why You Don’t Want Everyone To Join Your Team!! (Without this)

Posted on by

You probably did a double take when you read that headline I’m sure. But if you grasp the next few points I will cover in this post, you’ll consider a whole new perspective for building a healthy thriving network marketing organization. It really is that you want everyone who is a right fit for your team to join your team…let’s go!

Question, is the goal of building a network marketing  business (that one day will pay you passive residual daily) only to get a “yes”? I mean is it all just about transactions,  only about the ink  drying on a 50 sign-ups a day? While I  beg to differ do not misunderstand me I am aware that most companies pay their commissions on the basis of enrolling and recruiting. I have done my share of that. The point to which I write this post is regarding a very specific topic; one frankly that is getting little to no airplay inside the networking  and business world.  The word is simple, but an often overlooked ingredient  necessary for any company, team or business to flourish an have long-term. That word is Unity.

Unity is the stuff that keeps a team’s purpose clear in the hearts and minds of their players, a company’s values cemented in their organization and a business producing for years to come.  It is not only the how but the why. It’s also why those top leaders who have said “yes” to you, will stay with you way down the road long after those who also said “yes” and not meant it have faded away. When things get tough, committed ones remain, all the other who have paid lip service  would have packed up and left. All except the ones that are united with you. The ones who’s core value of unity resonate with yours.

So what ‘s the difference between those that say “yes” and build and those that say “yes” and fade?  Well as a very wise mentor once shared with me. Sometime a the word yes is really a “no” 100BV ( or whatever your company gives for the volume of the sign-up.) It’s a hard truth to swallow but integrity and commitment is a scarcity on the world an it’s no different in building a team in network marketing.

I personally believe when you grasp unity, that you should be happy when some folks tell you ‘no”, “quit” or leave you. Why?Bbecause they are saving you future grief, heart ache and drama that otherwise would occur if they joined , stayed and produced negative toxic environment.What is a toxic environment for a team. Simple. One where unity is not fostered. Where it’s all about me, my and self. No team can survive long term with short-term , over-inflated ego-maniacs. Trust me, I’ve been there done that and got the the t-shirt.

Heres’ my axiom I live by and teach my leaders weekly. Having a rock solid unified team of unskilled players can  way out perform a divide, negative unsure team of  skilled players. The reason why is talent can only be directed in a spirit of unity and common purpose. The team mission or vision must be clear, understood and the team must be unified in it to carry it out and see it manifest.

But how can we know when a member of our team is a future success and will add value we desire? After all no one has a crystal ball nor can look into a human’s heart and for the record, talk is cheap. Truth is, there is a way. I call it the UNITY TEST. We can expose whether we have unified players by asking these few questions. Apply them now to your current team

Just ask yourself this about your team.

1. Do they expect me to build their businesses for them and will blame me if they do not succeed?

2. Do they seek to support one another in my absence?

3. Do they promote the team, events, tools and leadership to their new rep?

4. Do they seek controversy over harmony when all is said and done?

5. Are they critical of the compensation, products, ownership and themselves?

6. Will they leave the team without a thought if they  got paid off to do so ?

7. Can they clearly articulate the team’s vision/goal or mission to one another if asked separately to do so?

As you can see the answers to these seven questions would clearly provide the prognosis of whether you have fragmented or unified players in your team, healthy or toxic reps comprising your organization?

Make a commitment to no longer be upset  (or get frustrated) if the wrong people do not stay. It’s the right rep you want. The one who wants to be with you and grow with you and contribute to you. Instead rejoice, give thanks and be grateful by them NOT JOINING or STAYING your group can be stronger, more united and attractive and healthier through complete team UNITY.

Finally take the challenge this week to committ to paper to write out your team’s mission or vision statement. You’ll be amazed what can happen when your players know what they are part of and all working towards.

So the bottom line point or moral of the story is… it’s not that you don’t want everyone to join your team, YOU WANT EVERYONE WHO IS  RIGHT TO JOIN YOUR TEAM!

WARNING: IF YOU’RE ATTEMPTING TO GROW A TEAM WITHOUT THIS, YOU’RE SCREWED! LOL

5 Questions Championship Players Always Ask Themselves That Make Them Win

Posted on by
Reply

Today The Green Bay Packers are now the official 2011 Superbowl XLV Champions. Whether you watched the game LIVE or over pay per view, that isn’t the point of this blog. It is a  deeper message I shall attempt to unearth. It is 5 Simple questions I believe all achievers, athletes or network marketing professionals must ask themselves to have the winning edge. Packers or Steelers, democrat or republican, black or white, male or female… What are these 5 questions I am referring to? Let’s begin and let me ask you those same questions…

People will always be drawn to a team or individual that gets plays at a very high level. The reason is simple. Winning or more specifically, the desire to win is  infectious and most every person wants to be part of a winning  team or in a winning environment. Are you part of great team of winning-minded players in your network marketing company?

There is a common pride we all feel when we see out fellow teammates dedicates themselves to go above on beyond to achieve. This is called “the pull” and can motivate and inspires some of the greatest successes in the industry.  Network marketing is not a solo sport but a team one. Unfortunately, jobs are solo so understanding this difference is vital. Are you motivated by your team to go above and beyond to achieve higher in your business?

Watching others on the field makes us want to get in the field. There’s no question you can only sit on the sidelines of your opportunity for so long. You can’t just watch while others get involved in the game and enjoy the thrill and success of actually winning. Aren’t you tired of seeing other players (just like you)  do all the sponsoring & recruiting and wining in your business?

We must embrace the  undeniable point that you can only ever become the best at your sport or (in the case of network marketing) by honing your craft. When you commit to becoming a better you will not negotiate the time required to practice over and over and over again. There’s also the team effect. You just can’t put a price tag on the value of partnership. That teamwork on the field is huge. Just think -How many games of preparation and training these super bowl athletes do just to play a few minutes on a championship level? Wow! It’s time for us to stop making excuses today! Are you ready to play your best at a championship level in your opportunity?

Finally  there are many other references I can draw here such as having a superb coach in our lives. This is invaluable as we improve ourselves day to day. But the major point I will conclude this post with is this. All of these football players that  played in this year’s 2011 Superbowl XLV 2011 have a 150% passion for the game and their  own game. They made no excuses. They’ve worked hard & relentlessly to get there. And although in competition there can only be one victor, because each teammate  dedicated themselves to be the very best and gave their all, they were all winners.  Regardless of what others feel about them; media, fans, family members, fellow opponents and yes even fellow team players.  At the end of the day when they laced up and stepped on the field last night they knew what had to be sacrificed and what had to be left on the field. Everything! Are you willing to leave it all on the field to achieve in a way that makes others strive higher in their lives and business too?

The reality is this:  It’s about emptying everything you’ve got on that field, (that field being your chosen business arena) Never quitting and never making excuses. Always realizing that in order to get that privilege of playing at that level you have become someone who who becomes more. When you do this you’ll achieve something others only dream of in a lifetime.

The final point here in this post is this. All great teams have great coaches and have an attitude of coachableness to their coach. It goes without saying that the many months and in many cases, years leading up to a team win, everyone has to be coachable. All the players train learning the plays, staying united, being disciplined in their diets, not calling separate agendas, never abaondoning practices but above all committed to listening to the coach. Without this no championship team can ever win. The same holds true in our network marketing business by having ana mainataing an attitude of coachableness. It means you are willing to submit to learn from those who have gone before you who can train you by saving you time and energy. Are you coachable? Are you committed to learn the team plays, the system and do things the right way to give yourseld greater odds of suceeding. If you haven’t and want to be like the Green Bay Packers in your network marketing company this year, then start being coachable today!

Re-Post: “A Year End Leadership Perspective With Some of My Team Leaders!

Posted on by

I’m reading a great book right now by one of myall time favorite authors. John C Maxwell. It’s on why so many people never ever fully achieve. Invest in your self before 2010 end and pick up a personal copy.

The one and only thing that make any business work is one thing – leadership. Not follower-ship but leadership. Stop trying to blend into the status quot & stand out from among the crowd…then and only them will you become the man/woman, the brand and success you desire to be.

So many well meaning reps and aspiring leaders confuse, political correctness, niceness, kindness  and even talent for leadership. Seeking comfort and the approval of everyone is a absolute sentence to a lifetime bondage. Not physical but the emotional kind. I call it “people bondage.”

While it’s essential to be cordial with those around us and in our business, you’ll never achieve that high level of success without commanding the deep respect that becoming a leader brings.  You’ll not even achieve if you say all the the right things. Simply put, you must be right. Until you are respected as a leader you won’t ever experience all the perks, benefits, financial rewards and accolades of the title.

Frankly being a leader is the reward. When you can be & do in harmony, then the power flows.

This can only come about by good decisions. And good decisions hurt and are exceeding uncomfortable. Leading is being and doing. Doing the things that are difficult, uncomfortable, unpopular and that make people flat out mad. Who cares if it is the right thing you’re doing. The fruit of your actions will be silence the “Nay’ Sayers utterly.

What is a life without these ingredients anyways??

So tonight or today as we stare another fresh holiday year in the face. TRULY Make a decision BEFORE 2011 that you will step up and stand out. You will STOP comparing yourself to someone else’s average and compete with the only one that really matters any way..that is YOU. Decide to be a leader and make this holiday and the new year the best one ever.

A “Starbucks Meet-up” Strategy For Building Network Marketing In Your Local Area?

Posted on by
1

Can your local coffee house franchise actually assist you in growing your network marketing business. Can it be a springboard to major momentum? Can Starbucks help you become a star and make more bucks?  Yes it can.

It helped me and if done correctly can can help you do the same as well.

In this post I’m going to share the simply and effective strategy I used less than 90 days a go to not only reach out to my local community but how I also grew my primary opportyunity into a thriving city-based hotel meeting.

Let’s face it, everyone has a local market that they would so love to dominate. If you reside in a population  base that has several hundred to several million and no one in your respective company has targeted or capitalized on it, then the good news is the leader of that local market is none other than you. Yesm you heard me. It’s the person staring back at you in the mirror.

While most people are waiting for a leader to emerge in your town, city, sate or province before they take action or begin their network marketing quest. The obvious truth is that you are the one and there is no competition if you do what I’m going to sahre with you in the next few lines.

1. Created a short 1-2min video calling all local reps in my primary company to come and attend a fun casual meet-up  that will help these reps to connect with other local reps.

2. Post this video on all your video sharing, blogs and social media sites. Do this approx 8-10 days out to give attendees time to RSVP and book it in their calendars.

3. Create a  specific event that connects the video to that day, afternoon or evening event. ie facebook

4. As people respond, reach out to them in a real sincere way asking them what their biggest challenges or frustrations with their company is and ensure you confirm their attendance and the directions to the venue.

5. Book the venue and prepare the area for your casual meet-up ahead of time. ie chairs, tables etc. I chose Sbux because it is a more affluent type of coffee house tending to attract more upper-middle class traffic

6. Make sure you have the right attitude so that whether 2 or 22 show up, you’ll be there ready to connect with these reps and new prospects and that you will 2-3weeks later have another offline meet-up.

* [The real secret to this strategy is that it must be done consistently. One time is not enough]

At the meet-up the objective for you to facilitate a casual and comfortable exchange (over coffee) lol so you can get to know the local network marketing reps in your immediate region. To connect with local entrepreneurs from your city is the the purpose. Be relaxed, get to know everyone and have fun.

Don’t be pushy, salesy or come across anxious or needy. You’re not there to recruit. Just to connect. Instead ask information-gathering questions about all in attendance.  Write down names, numbers  & emails before the meeting ends. If you follow this format of  casual coffee shop format, I can assure you will have people come out to meet you the leader of this event. Don’t commiserate over those who do not show up. If you take interest in those who have shown up, they will almost always 99.9% ask you the question you’re waiting for which is. “What do you do?” or “can you tell me about your company?” This is not the point to drool, salivate or puke on your new friends. You can give a hand out or mention briefly some key info and/or book another specific time to re-connect to discuss your opportunity in detail.

The list of names, numbers and emails is now your master list to reference for follow-up and the next future meet-up. I think you’re now getting the concept of how a casual meet-up can bring local networkers to you!

Please listen to the below interview I conducted with my Business Partner & Mentor  Ray Higdon via webinar on how I mastered this offline meet-up strategy that allowed me to recruit 15 new reps in under 33 days and develop a duplicating team of 100 plus in under 90 days.

The meet-up strategy works & it can work for you right from a Starbucks or local cafe house of your choice to build in your local area. Just be willing to step out away from the safety of your pc TODAY!  Click the link below to listen to the full interview.
