It's Do-Over Day!

I've got a great team. I love every person I've personally enrolled & love those they have enrolled. I have a grateful heart. They rock! I love calling those positive people & hearing about their newly enrolled team members. Their positive energy pumps up my day. It puts a smile on my face. And I understand when people fall out & cancel their autoships. It happens. In the past these occasional cancellations got me down & negative. Instead of calling them & encouraging them to hang in there, keeping their spot locked in for those downline, spillover bonuses, I have shrugged it off. But... no more. I adore the Vemma & Verve product. Without it, my ankles swell, find myself not sleeping, lacking that clean energy, etc. So, I'm starting today to have a Do-Over Day! I'm touching base with my peeps, updating them on the latest events (see back office updates), letting them know I care, & then doing what all of us needs to do...enrolling new team members. It's been a few months since I've done that. Famous MLM phrase...the pace of the team is the pace of the pack! So...let's "pace it up!" Not sure if that's a phrase, but you get the drift. Set the pace. Be the example of positive action ... positive energy ... positive business building daily activity. Do to duplicate! It's Do-Over Day!

The Importance of a Solid Foundation

I'm a little tired of being "pitched" constantly on new start-up companies, to tell the truth. I get pitched through email, facebook, twitter, IM, texting, phone messages, etc. Everyone is pitching being positioned first or in networking terms, groundfloor. Well, let me explain something (experience talking), being first means nothing if the company hasn't proven themselves in the market place, is underfunded, is built on hype & there's no documented success with the product or opportunity. Network Marketing is an amazing vehicle to get products & services to the marketplace via word-of-mouth strategies, but if it's not coming from a solid financial & business savy foundation ... IT WON'T LAST. Distributors sign up, invest tons of hard earned money for a FAST START kit ... or ONE TIME PURCHASE ... get on the phones with their family & friends all pumped up about getting rich ... get their first order (maybe their second) & suddenly there are problems. Checks bounce from the company, they are stuck with inventory they usually don't use & can't consume, the company folds & no one wins here. So the same "leaders" jump to the next deal of the day. It makes me a little upset. So, let's now turn the tables on Vemma ... one of the only SOLID companies out there. It's parent company is 15 years old, a billion dollars strong! And the product - Vemma (energized version Verve & Verve Shot) is documented, researched, double-blind clinical studied...fabulous! It is solid folks. Fall in love with the product & start enrolling people onto your team. It's that easy. Use the tools - downloads, brochures, CD's, website, conference calls, etc. - to help you. Stay pumped! It's awesome & isn't going away. You can change your life & lifestyle here. It takes effort (consistently) - but the outcome is success. Time to rock 'n roll!

Keeping Things Simple :=)

I sound like a broken record when I mentor new distributors in Network Marketing. I say over & over again - "keep it simple". And for good reason. If you COMPLICATE...you can't DUPLICATE. If at anytime with your presentation or explanation of the business your Prospect says (or thinks) "I can't do that." Then you will not succeed with the duplication process - which is the secret to making the big bucks in this biz! You must "do to duplicate." Don't make things sound hard. Starting with your simple ONE MINUTE MESSAGE ... you tell them in 60 seconds what you are doing - why they should do it - & that they don't have to change anything they are currently doing to "do it." And always make sure to state that you are having fun! With a hot product like Verve - highly consumable (daily use) - just get everyone hooked on the product ... putting them on autoship. When your new Member sees product success guess what? It's a natural step for them to share that success with others. I always go from the product perspective. I actually couldn't get involved in a business where I didn't adore the product! Simply say ... "I'm having fun in a new business that is really easy because it has the only healthy energy drink on the market. You should do it too! You don't have to change anything you are doing, just drink the drink & tell people how great you feel!" Then let them ask questions - hand them a sample - follow-up (see it thru!) The follow-up is about (again) keeping it simple by using the upline & company TOOLS. Let those TOOLS TALK! Tools that you can use ... 1) your www.myvemma.com/teamburgess (your name) website where they can watch that great BK Boreyko video clip, 2) our support site www.teamburgess.com where they can hear a quick overview message & watch a product formulation video clip, 3) a HOTLINE voice mail message (949) 266-0344 where you can call it 24/7 from your cell phone right on the spot with your Prospects, or call it when you are doing your follow-up by 3-way calling it, 4) weekly biz opportunity calls on Tuesday or Thursday, 5) simple HOME TASTINGS (see Listen & Learn at www.teamburgess.com). My usual SIMPLE process with a potential new Member is ... HOTLINE ... WEBSITE ... CONFERENCE CALL ... 3-WAY CALL. But whatever order you use these amazing TOOLS...just keep it simple so that it is duplicatable. Your team needs to do exactly what you do & keep it simple too. DO TO DUPLICATE should be your daily goals. Be consistent. Be persistent & keep it simple. Have fun!!!

On the Road Again

I love the internet. I can be anywhere in the world (literally, seeings that I'm writing this blog from Istanbul, Turkey), & can communicate, update, evaluate, motivate...whatever "ate' needs being done right from your computer. I was just checking the growth of the group & was excited to see so many of my fab teams developing with or without me. Great! That is one of the beauties (& benefits) of this great biz. Like many of you, I have a job job that requires me to be there to make money. It's something I adore - teaching private voice students how to sing. I do love it, but if I'm not around to do the actual teaching, I make zip money. They call that "trading time for money". If I didn't love the results from seeing the growth in my students, I wouldn't do it. However, I've always done MLM because you can do it in your pj's anywhere - at anytime - from the road or from the car. You fall in love with a product like Vemma & Verve. You take it - see the benefits - share your story & sponsor. And if you help your people sponsor & anchor in your team downline - you make unlimited amounts of money. It works. It has always worked. And having the right company - right product - right pay plan - right support ...you win! From the road - from the car - from your kitchen table you can build this business. It's simple. Easy? If you get the right people...yes. Just keep talking - no matter where you are. The product is sensational!!! I'll be home from Turkey on the 9th. Until then ... keep peeps plugged into www.teamburgess.com & my recorded message at (949) 266-0344. xoxo
