Obviously we don't have any customer testimonials for the course yet because it's brand-new, but I do have sneak-peek of what you can expect.

 

These are emails we received after we held the original "Building On A Budget Tele-Clinic" which as a 90 minute phone call business owners paid $25.00 to attend.

 

When you order the written course today, you're going to get free, instant access to this call as one of your bonuses.

This information is going to change a lot of people's lives, so please enjoy it, and thank you for your leadership and support.

Quixtar Sues MonaVie and Brig Hart

Details are sketchy but it looks like Quixtar is suing MonaVie and Brig Hart, possibly related to the Team (Orrin Woodward & CO) leaders announcement of using MonaVie as a supplier.

Here is a link...

Quixtar v. MonaVie

Another poster at Get The Facts - The Truth About Amway and Quixtar added information found on the PACER web site:

January 29, 2008
Quixtar Inc. v. Hart et al FL Middle Adams Other
Petitioner: Quixtar Inc. Respondent: John Hart, Lita Hart

My question is...

How long can Quixtar attorney's force people to stay with a company that is in such chaos?

Update: The MonaVie suit appears to be a "motion to comply" with a subpeona, not an actual lawsuit.  No update on the Brig Hart portion.

Building On A Budget Launches On Thursday!

There are 18 hours to go before my friend, Mike Dillard launches Building On A Budget.

Mike wants to teach you how to create 10 to 50 leads a day for FREE!  I already create a lot of leads online for free, but I guess, I'm greedy.  I want to create more, so I can't wait until 1PM Eastern when the program launches.

Make sure that you go to: http://www.BuildingOnABudget.biz at 1PM Eastern/10AM Pacific because Mike is giving away a bunch of extra goodies on Thursday.

Direct from Mike Dillard:

Bonus #1: Get A Free Copy Of The "Building On A Budget Tele-Clinic"

As you might remember, I actually held a phone based "tele-clinic" for Building On A Budget a few months ago which was incredible. Participants paid $25.00 each just to attend this single phone call, and people were blown away by what they learned.

Here's just one of many emails I received after the call was over...

"These Methods Are Much More Powerful Than More Expensive Options!"    "Wow! I am thrilled to death that you shared this information with us. The content of this course is jam-packed with step-by-step instructions on exactly what to do to drive traffic to your site for under $500, but the best part is that these methods are much more powerful than a lot of the more expensive options.

Thanks a million Mike." - Tim Berry MD

So as a special gift tomorrow, I'm going to give you FREE instant download access to the recording of this call which you'll definitely want because it contains two additional free traffic generating methods which aren't in the book.

Bonus #2: Get A Free Copy Of My Private "Inner Circle Newsletter"

The 5 methods we chose to teach in BOAB are going to be extremely effective for years to come because they aren't based on "here today, gone tomorrow" tricks.

But none-the-less, the internet is constantly evolving, and little changes take place all the time. If you're familiar with the "Google Slaps" that took place in 2007, you know exactly what I'm talking about.

If you tried to keep up with the latest tactics on your own for PPC, SEO, blogging, video, and social networking sites, you'd end up spending about $3,000/Mo on courses and frankly, you wouldn't have time to do anything else but read!

Well we've decided to make sure that's never going to be a problem for you.

After being asked to do this by thousands of people, my marketing team and I have decided to produce a private monthly newsletter called the "Magnetic Sponsoring Inner Circle", which is strictly reserved for personal friends and customers.

We have to keep up on all the latest online marketing strategies because we own some of the biggest websites in the industry!

So why not pass on the best of what we learn each month from our personal real-world tests and results, to you? Well that's exactly what we're going to do...

Each month, we'll be producing a new issue of the "Inner Circle", and inside you'll find the latest, most effective online marketing techniques boiled down into a few simple steps,

This kind of information is mandatory for anyone who wants to stay competitive and build a huge online business without having to spend thousands of dollars per month on the latest courses.   

And the information you'll get is even more valuable because it's not theory. You actually get to see what's working behind the curtain of our multi-million dollar marketing company!

When you order BOAB tomorrow, I'll send you the very first issue of the Inner Circle for FREE.

Bonus #3: Get Exclusive 35%-60% On "Traffic Formula", "Black Belt Recruiting", And "System Formula"

As soon as you're order is processed, you'll have the opportunity to get copies of our other courses at the lowest prices we've EVER offered, including two that haven't been released yet... "Black Belt Recruiting" and "System Formula". These discounts are reserved for "Building On A Budget" Customers only and are not available to the general public!

I know that many of you have been waiting to get your hands on these two courses for a while, so now is your chance to get them months before they're available to everyone else, and at prices you'll never see again!

Bonus #4: Get A Huge Discount On Your Copy Of "Building On A Budget"

As I mentioned in the last email, one of the goals I had when I wrote this course was to make sure everyone can afford it, so the normal price is going to be just $49.95.

But that's not you're price... It's everyone else's.

As my fourth and final bonus, you're going to get a BIG discount Ty!

How big? I can't tell you publically, so you'll just have to visit www.BuildingOnABudget.biz at 1:00 EST tomorrow to find out! ;)

Thank you for your leadership, Mike Dillard

Back to Ty....

Thursday is going to be a wild day. 

Don't miss this.

'til next time,

Achieve!

Herbalife Grows 22% In 2007 In The U.S.!

Quixtar IBO's, you need to pay attention to this!. Sorry to pick on you here, but as I have been trying to tell you, companies in Network Marketing are growing...even older companies like Herbalife.  Check this out:

The company attributed the increase in sales to double-digit growth in several of its top countries, coupled with favorable foreign currency fluctuations. U.S. sales grew 22 percent, while revenue in Taiwan rose 19 percent, Italy 22 percent and China 146 percent.

If your business is not growing, look at the overall growth of your company.  If the company  not growing either, you need to seriously consider the company you are affiliated with.  Life is too short to spin your wheels with a company that is in chaos.  Do some research and take control of your future

MLM Uncensored

About four months ago, I launched three new blog sites that were experimental in nature.  Typically, blog content is created by one writer and then the blog readers have the opportunity to comment on the blog posts presented by the writer.

In my five years of blogging, I have written a number of blog posts that have taken on a life of their own in the comment sections.  People would post points and counter-points and engage in wonderful (and many times civil) debates about the topics.

This spawned an idea to create a blog that offered content created solely by the readers and that's what I did (in fact, I created three such blogs) and I called them MLM Uncensored.

All three of the sites landed in the Google Top 10 when searching for the company name at one point or another over the last four months and one remains in the top 10 today.  The sites have all bounced around the top 40 depending on what is written how Google shuffles the cards.

What does this mean to you?

It's simple, really.  We will be launching additional MLM Uncensored sites at a clip of at least one a week and we want you to participate and benefit from your participation.  You are free to post your links and promote your business in any way you see fit.  Others are free to comment about the posts and about the company in general, including their opinions and their experience with the product and opportunity.  It's an uncensored free flowing discussion.  The only time we will moderate comments is if people get abusive. I have no time for abusive people in my life and I assume that you don't either.

Here are the links to the three original sites:

Body Alive Uncensored
MonaVie Uncensored
Zrii Uncensored

and our newest launch:

Arbonne Uncensored

Amway/Quixtar Uncensored is coming soon!

"Only Stupid Do MLM The Old Fashioned Way"

That is a direct quote from a web page that I recently stumbled across.  Outside of the statement being untrue, there is another major problem with the web page. 

See if you can spot it. Click Here.

Update: The problem I found has been fixed. The site didn't have a place to capture a persons information.  It was a lead capture page without the capture at the time I first looked at it.

Update 2: I responded to a comment from the author of the web site in the comments and I thought it might be worth posting a couple of additional thoughts here.

Absolutes are stupid and in this case, wrong.  People have the right to say whatever they want, but when they state something as a fact and they are wrong, I have a right to point that out.  Even though I use the Internet to create leads (and I am really good at it), to suggest that face to face contacting and business building doesn't work is simply naive.

As a matter of fact, my buddy, Todd Falcone (a multi-million dollar earner himself), interviewed a bunch of six and seven figure Network Marketing income earners about this very subject...

What Makes A Good Network Marketing Company?

Ever hear someone say, "My ORAC is higher than your ORAC!" or "My company is better than your company."?  There is little doubt that there are good companies and bad companies in this industry, the question should be what attributes make a good company?

We will touch on this subject over the next few weeks in this multi-part series.  Your comments are welcome and encouraged.

There are attributes of a Network Marketing company that are important and then there are attributes of a Network Marketing company that people love to toss around as a perceived benefit, but these make little to no difference in whether or not you are able to build a profitable business. Let's talk about a few of these attributes...

1. Size and Longevity Of The Company - This is a very important piece to the puzzle when choosing a Network Marketing company, but it really comes down to stability, not size and longevity. You want a company to have the resources to grow and the stability to pay out bonus checks on time, ship products on time and support your business through providing excellent customer service.  I normally suggest that people stay away from start-up companies, but if Bill Gates and Warren Buffet start a company, is it really a start up or is it a new company? It's important to look closely at the ownership.

Remember, just because a company is the biggest and oldest, doesn't mean it is the best place for you to carve out your own success. This is about your personal success in your marketplace, not about a companies 50 year track record and billions in sales in other countries. 

I will take a stable, innovative and growing company over a billion dollar, 50 year old company that is in chaos in my marketplace.

2. Number Of Products: More Is Better? -The myth is that more products choices leads to more volume. But the facts tell a different story.  The fastest growing companies in the last 5 years in Network Marketing have been one product companies or companies with a very narrow product focus (like weight loss). Here is the reality of Network Marketing...people do enough volume to quality for the bonus schedule, regardless of the number of products and then if the product is innovative, reasonably priced (it doesn't have to be the cheapest) and solution driven, distributors will naturally sell the product to customers, creating more volume.

Hundreds, thousands (or even millions) of products do not significantly increase the volume or more importantly, profit per distributor.  It's really all about the impact of the product.  Network Marketing companies have always been innovative when it comes to products, but if the product is easily copied (then sold for a lot less in stores), a drop in sales will naturally occur.

I would rather have one impact product that is reasonably priced than a million products that are priced 20 to 50% higher than the stores.

Isagenix Launches Helathy Chocolate Product - IsaDelight

Isagenix has launched a new healthy chocolate product in the same genre as Network Marketing company, Xocai.

This powerful new treat is packed with feel-good vitamins, minerals and a unique blend of amino acids. IsaDelight™ enhances the health benefits of chocolate and helps to lift mood*, promote brain and heart health*, improve energy and satisfy cravings.*

"Isagenix is the first company to come out with a tasty chocolate supplement fortified with brain-healthy* nutrients," says Paul Anderson, M.D., D.A.P.M. and a developer of IsaDelight™. "It gives our brain the nutrients it needs and helps to elevate mood and curb food cravings.*"

The antioxidants in dark chocolate help protect the body from damaging free radicals* that lead to poorer health. Dark chocolate also helps maintain healthy blood flow to the heart and brain.* While chocolate is usually associated with high amounts of sugar and calories, each IsaDelight™ supplement is low in both.
