You always hear of online and direct marketing businesses that took off and several people were making a lot of money. First thing that comes to my mind is “YEAH RIGHT!” So you didn't get involved. Sound familiar?  


Business is all about timing!

If you are like me, you probably said to yourself if I had only got in sooner.  Am I right?


Are there such things as “GET RICH QUICK BUSINESS?” Yes, there are flash in the pans of course, but where are they today? Those type businesses are few and far between.  If you did not get involved when the timing was right or if you didn't possess the business skills required and it didn't happen for you.


To have a viable, successful and profitable business you need a solid foundation! You must have a marketable product that is a NEED product first and a WANT product second. And of course the all important “longevity!” Don’t forget sweat equity!


Critical to your success is business knowledge; you know the tools to be successful. . . . The “How-To’s”  In my travels I talk with people and find that many have the desire and the excitement but lack the tools. I briefly inquire about their marketing plan, presentation skills, goals and objectives, time management, follow-up process and closing skills and in general I get that deer in the headlights look. I get this reaction more often than not. Let’s take a look at a general scenario. You are asked to attend a business opportunity meeting by a friend or family member. Begrudgingly you go. But hear a great business opportunity. Your excitement level is high and you see visions of wealth and freedom.  Your presenter states “We will help you!” You decide to get involved right there at the meeting. ”Folks this happens a lot!” You were promised that your sponsor or upline would help you get your business off the ground.


The next day you call your upline and request their assistance as promised. Their response was "Your training is contained on the web site" or come to a meeting, where they don't train but they present the business to potential clients that you may have brought. Or you’re told to gather as many people as you know and bring them to the next meeting. This is a great way to communicate your business, but how do you present the opportunity to people to get them to that meeting? How is this accomplished, that's your question right? How do I get started? Has this happened to you?


Your sponsor or upline assumed you have solid business principles, marketing, prospecting, follow-up and closing and communication skills already. Or they just don’t care and just wanted to add another person to their line, or notch in their gun.


 


Your excitement will soon fade, your believability gone, so you drop out disillusioned and with a bad taste in your mouth. The bad thing about this is that you will probably no longer have an open mind about another opportunity offered to you. Thus you could be passing up the one opportunity that could in fact get you financially free. Totally change your quality of life.


So this bad practice by others has in fact stolen your dreams. But in reality you let your dreams become stolen. You let the actions of someone else influence your position in life. You have settled for your current situation knowing good well that is where you will probably stay.


So where am I going with this?


For your success in anything, business or otherwise YOU must be in control. You must have the tools and knowledge of building a successful business to apply and share this knowledge with your organization. You know the old saying, “I’d rather have 1% of a 100 people’s effort than 100% of my own. A business colleague of mine years ago told me; "If you want to play with the Big Dogs, you have to get off the Porch!"


So here's your opportunity to finally establish yourself into a viable long term business of your choosing. Learn the skills required to build a successful business. Apply these learned skills and become a leader in your chosen business. Establish the elusive residual income base with the all important longevity.

Don't allow your DREAMS get Stolen Again!
