How to Increase Home Business Productivity Not Dam It

How to increase home business productivity not dam it…

I guess I’m human and dedicated enough when I see the words FREE HOME BUSINESS TRAINING I will open up the email…never knowing where some valuable suggestive nugget might be found about making more money or talking to more people. Especially, if possible, to also save yourself money and time..all under the veneer of free. (It’s true parents raised in the First Depression brought their families up to believe a penny saved is a penny earned.)

But folks, nothing is free.

As it turns out, the course materials were free to access but the TIME required to master the content was not mentioned.

And I have climbed that EveryTraining Mountain…hour by hour, notebook by notebook, teleseminar by teleseminar.And when I felt I had reached the top of self-belief and support of others, and looked around, no one had followed me!The sad truth is very, very few people will scale that mountain even if it is absolutely free to start and continue to work their buns off hoping that many more will also want to do the same…

But judge for yourself. Here is the free content as outlined:
  • Get free access to private internet marketing coaching calls dynamic, fun, and informative LIVE network marketing training sessions and TELECLASSES
  • Get an upgraded affiliate status – so you can refer people and get higher commissions paid back to you
  • Get a free residual income website to generate products, leads, business tools and affiliate commissons
  • Get a free replicated Blog with over free100 templates available you can personalize
  • Get a free attraction-marketing and list-building system designed to help provide value and build "know-how" in the minds of your prospects.
  • Get free access to a cutting-edge collection of network marketing articles and e-books, Cd's and Dvd's... jam-packed with business building strategies and techniques that the pros use every day.
  • Get more internet marketing courses, tools, and resources to make income online always have discounted prices on the hottest industry-related products and services, so you can stay up to date with the digital age.
  • Get top quality sales Leads - If you like buying leads, never worry again if you're getting the best and most effective. You can even listen-in from time to time, as we call them "Live and In Your Face!"
  • Get Educated by hardcore internet marketers and have been building teams online for years…Never get left behind!

Wow! I get tired just reading about all this gear, trails and mountaineers searching for that gold mine of financial freedom! The real "golden opportunity" is being able to help friends and neighbours achieve abundant success also without all the trials and tribulations.

The real truth is the network marketing home business is about duplicating a simple business system by average people, always has been, and always will be a democratic way to build residual income.

The only real way to increase productivity in this unique home business model is to offer a 3-steps marketing plan that can be delivered in one hour with inbuilt comprehensive training and no loss of critical information. Everybody can do it.

The way to dam productivity is to build a mountain of information in front of it. Only a handful of elite climbers will strive to ascent.

It starts with education of facts and principles about how network marketing works. It includes a strong personal component for self-empowerment and change. It concludes with an extraordinary home business opportunity.

Your questions and comments are always welcome.

A Profitable Home Business on a Table Napkin? Show Me How

A Profitable Home Business on a Table Napkin? Show me how.

I listened recently to a short video presentation about a young entrepreneur who has an absolutely unusual way of deciding which potential million dollar business to build based on a peculiar business model. Can his business plan be explained to future partners on a dinner napkin? And can his partners explain the same business plan on a dinner napkin to other prospects?

The key here is marketing with obvious simple duplication.

He continued to draw a regular sized napkin and divide it into quadrants. Each quarter represented a special function.
First, start with a capture email page with a low ticket offer.
Next, proceed to a small ticket upsell where as many as 30% of customers begin to feel comfortable with the buying process. Then, everyone is dropped into an email follow-up system called a Continuity Program. Finally, the big ticket item is produced and supported with call centers, webinars, and email contacts and updates. At any time, potential customers can remove themselves from the marketing funnel.

This program started a personal evaluation. Can my small home business be explained on a single dinner napkin? I believe so, but even in a more simplified way.

First: Invite potential prospects to listen to an overview call about the home business opportunity.
Second: If interested in more information, follow-up with the company’s website and a one page Getting Started Right Business Plan
Third: Help with questions. Continue the education with a generic overview of the business model with a slideshow and e-book…an invaluable information tool that does the work for you called the Mini-Program for Maxi-Profits.
Fourth: Read and share the 1- 2 – 3 Step Marketing Plan that covers all the main facts,neutralizes common excuses, and brings in a new business partner.

Simple is a beautiful thing. A simple dinner napkin “business” can be duplicated. In our industry duplication of a simple marketing plan can lead to fortunes.
