The Truth About Making Money!

Welcome Back! If you haven't already done so, please subscribe to my RSS Feed. You wont want to miss any of this valuable content!

The Universal Law of Precession:

One of the great thinkers of our time, Buckminster Fuller, came up with the Law of Precession. Also called the Law of Side Effects. This law states that when a body is in motion towards another body (because of gravity or because it’s simply attracted to it), always at a 90o right angle to that line of attraction there is an equal if not greater result that’s being generated.

In simple terms:

If an object is attracted to a second object and is moving towards it, another result will occur at a right angle. That result will be equal to or greater than the original attraction.

So what does the law of precession have to do with making money?

Great question!

Ask yourself this: What are most people attracted to?

You guessed it…Money!

So how do we use the law of precession to make money?

Again, another great question!

Simple. By adding value to everyone and everything we touch we can direct the law of precession to produce the side effect of abundance and balance in our lives.

For example:

Lets say this is you: a body in motion that is attracted towards another body in motion – MONEY!

If you live out your life focused on adding value to everyone and everything along your way on a daily bases you’ll naturally attract a life of balance and abundance.

Now, I ask you this: Have you ever witnessed people, regardless of their profession, who pursue money above all else? In other words, money is the only reason why they do what they do? Do you know people who focus solely on their need for, and acquisition of, money?

Now think about this for a second. What side effect does the Law of Precession frequently create for them in their lives?

Greed!

Have you noticed the imbalance they create in other areas of their lives as well – like health, family, relationships, and so on? This picture below illustrates the Law of Precession creating a side effect of a person who pursues money above all else, and who focuses solely on their need for, and acquisition of, money.

The picture above demonstrates people creating the side effects greed and imbalance in their lives when money is the only reason why they do what they do. This explains why many people who have a profession solely for the money will generate greed and imbalance in their lives.

For example: People who have high profile jobs solely for the money often times are miserable because they hate what they do and how much their job commands of them. This in turn can cause a side effect of them losing their health, becoming stressed out, creating family problems inside their home, taking time away from their families, etc. But they keep doing what they do because they have also created a certain amount of greed in their lives which keeps them doing what they do for the money. Not to mention the financial trap they most likely have put themselves in by creating a ton of bills, forcing them to stay in their profession which is what’s making them miserable in the first place.

Other things people indulge in solely for the money may include stripping, drug dealing, robbery, prostitution, gambling, etc. Have you ever noticed the common side effects generated from choosing to participate in these kind of acts. The Law of Precession explains why many people who get involved in practices such as these often more times than not create huge imbalances in their lives.

More than likely a person who strips, sells drugs, prostitutes, gambles, etc. is doing it solely for the money and has created a certain amount of greed in their lives. This greed keeps them doing what they are doing, but because they are only doing it for the money they create side effects in their lives such as drug addiction, imprisonment, damaging relationships, financial, health, and mental issues, family problems, depression, etc. And the ultimate side effect one can create as a result of making a decision to be involved in things of this nature is death.

We need to be wise enough to understand what money is and what money is not. Money is nothing more than a tool, an instrument that allows us to express ourselves and function freely within our world. There is an abundance of money and wealth on this planet, enough for every person to become financially free. Alone, money is nothing. It’s what we do with it that determines whether or not it has value.

So how do we direct the Law of Precession to produce the side effects we want?

As stated before, as you live out your life focus on adding value to everyone and everything along your way on a daily bases and you’ll be directing the Law of Precession to produce the side effects you want. You will naturally attract a life of balance and abundance. You see, when you add value to other people’s lives you also add value to your life as well. This is also known as the law of reciprocity, or in other words, what goes around, comes around.

Contrary to popular belief, success doesn’t lie in the destination of achieving a certain amount of money. Success lies in the journey. The day-to-day joy and pleasure we find in what we do in pursuit of money is where success lies. When money becomes the cause of what we do, we can easily compromise who we are and what we want to be. When money becomes the effect of what we love to do, then we’re being true to ourselves. As the saying goes: “If you love what you do you’ll never work a day in your life.”

What happens next in this process is that we experience more and more abundance in all areas of our lives – abundant relationships, an abundance of love, contribution, health, joy, etc. We also discover a deeper sense of inner peace, harmony, and balance.

So you see, we can use our attraction to money to generate richness throughout our life and the lives of everyone we touch by focusing our day-to-day attention on adding value.

You’ve probably heard people state that part of their life’s purpose is to make a positive difference in other people’s lives. That’s exactly what I’m talking about here. You can bet that these people will enjoy all the richness life has to offer, including money, as a powerful and profitable side effect. This is why I include one of my favorite quotes at the bottom of all my post and pages on my website “You can have anything you want in life if you help enough people get what they want” -Zig Ziglar

The wealthy and successful people of this world are well aware of the Universal Law of Precession. Their attraction towards adding value to others is just as great, if not greater, than their attraction towards money.

Their love for the process and the journey shines through in all they do. And in return, the universe and the Law of Precession rewards them with abundance, balance, and money.

If you want to learn how to use the Law of Precession to attract money, balance, and abundance in your life then consider this my personal invitation to you to work with me one on one to generate the side effects of balance, abundance, and financial freedom in your life.

Don’t Quit!

On the road to success you WILL undoubtedly encounter times of let downs, bad luck, exhaustion, set backs, and failure. At times you WILL grow tired, become overwhelmed, and feel like giving up. All of these things are part of the journey to success.

In these times of weakness and uncertainty you must remember that the ONLY way to fail in our industry is to quit. Keep in mind that slow and steady wins the race. Consistently accomplishing a little everyday is the key to success. When you get a little done everyday before you know it you will have scaled the highest of the highest mountain tops experiencing success like never before while living out your dreams and goals beyond your wildest imagination. This is ambition at it’s finest.  Remember, success is not a race, but a marathon.

So if you ever find yourself in a moment of weakness and you feel like you are going to quit I want you to reflect on this poem…

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you’re trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
When you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest, if you must, but don’t you quit.

Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about,
When he might have won had he stuck it out;
Don’t give up though the pace seems slow–
You may succeed with another blow.

Often the goal is nearer than,
It seems to a faint and faltering man,
Often the struggler has given up,
When he might have captured the victor’s cup,
And he learned too late when the night slipped down,
How close he was to the golden crown.

Success is failure turned inside out–
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far,
So stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit–
It’s when things seem worst that you must not quit.

Pyxism Review: TVI Express’s Sloppy Seconds!

In business everyone knows that the very first person or company to create and offer a product or service to the market is the one who stands to make the most amount of money! That being said I want to introduce to you Pyxism Inc, a company created and molded in a spitting image of the very popular company TVI Express.

Pyxism is in direct competition with TVI Express in the travel and tourism network marketing industry, however, Pyxism has tried to capitalize on some of the kinks and bugs in TVI Express’s business plan in efforts to try to form what they call the “ultimate leverage” compensation plan. In spite of this Pyxism still has not been able to produce the kind of results that TVI Express has. Why? Because TVI Express was the FIRST to hit the market with this unique compensation plan and business structure! But does it matter who has the best compensation plan?

NO!

Absolutely not. Compensation plans have nothing to do with ones success in any network marketing company. New and better compensation plans are invented everyday but you must realize that the compensation plan of a company is not what’s going to make you successful in the company.

YOU are what’s going to make you successful in the company!

If you’re dead serious about earning top incomes in Pyxism then listen up very closely because this will probably be one of the most important articles you’ve ever read about Pyxism.

Why do I say this will be one of the most important piece of information you’ll ever read about Pyxism? Because this is the information that the owners and top producers of Pyxism will NEVER tell you.

If you are serious about being successful in Pyxism and in the network marketing industry then the first thing you need to do is educate yourself first and foremost. Educate yourself in the areas of advertising and marketing. I’ve always said, “Advertising and marketing is the life line of your business. If you stop advertising and marketing, you stop getting paid!”

The owners of Pyxism and most Pyxism uplines will only tell you what benefits them, leaving out the fact that in order to be successful in this industry and build your own business you need to know several key things. These things include, but are not limited to, how to market and advertise, how to build value, and how to brand yourself as a leader. These are just some of the things that will set you apart from the rest of your fellow Pyxism reps. It will also allow you to stand on your own and become independent of ANY network marketing company.

Joining Pyxism alone will not make you rich, wealthy, or set you free financially. In fact if you don’t know how to build your home-based business, overcome the three biggest problems faced by network marketers, (which are lack of leads, lack of money, and lack of marketing training) and grow your downlines into massive organizations you WILL actually lose money each and every month by paying the company’s monthly auto-ship dues while not seeing any income from the company or your home-based business.

One of the biggest mistakes people make in our industry is thinking that they are going to get rich and make a ton of money just by joining a company and telling a few friends about their newly found opportunity. THIS HAS GOT TO BE THE BIGGEST ILLUSION IN OUR INDUSTRY and why tons of uneducated people think network marketing is a scam.

One of my favorite quotes is “The truly educated never graduate.” Those who never stop learning and truly educate themselves in the area of how to be successful in the network marketing industry know that unless you learn how to do things such as market and advertise, build value, and brand yourself, joining any network marketing company is useless when it comes to making money.

Knowing how to present your opportunity the right way to the right people is marketing at its finest. Not only is marketing one of the REAL money making skills you need in this industry but it is one of the ESSENTIAL money making skills you need to succeed in this industry.

If you don’t know how to present your opportunity the right way to the right people you will never make any significant money at all. This is why my mentoring and training program teaches you how to market, build value, and brand yourself FIRST. This allows those who participate in my mentoring and training program to always be able to earn executive type incomes no matter what company they are in.

My mentoring and training participants realize that making money has little to do with the network marketing company you join, but it does have EVERYTHING to do with the ability to market and brand yourself.

Most uplines will not tell you that you need to posses marketing skills before joining a company…if they even know that themselves? Most uplines just want you to join them!

Learn the skills of marketing and advertising, how to build value, and how to brand yourself and I GUARANTEE you your home-based business will explode beyond your wildest imagination and dreams; and you’ll enjoy a life of riches, wealth, and abundance!

Should you need help with your marketing and advertising efforts, building value, branding yourself, or with anything else, get access to my marketing and training program below. It will teach you how to do all of these things plus how to get over the biggest problems faced by network marketers, lack of leads, lack of money, and lack of marketing training.

What is TVI Express?

If you are reading this post chances are you’re thinking about joining TVI Express and you’re asking yourself what exactly is TVI Express? Well the answer is simple.

TVI Express is a travel & tourism network marketing company!

Network marketing is a modern professional distribution method of products or services through a network of independent entrepreneurs. Network marketing is one of the most rewarding home-based businesses’ you can start today.

Instead of spending tons of money on traditional forms of advertising such as TV, radio, magazines, billboards and so on, which can be hit or miss, network marketing allows parent companies to market their products directly to consumers, through relationships, through referrals, and direct selling. Many traditional businesses’ use this form of marketing today. Using this form of marketing allow these businesses’ to reach customers they might not otherwise when using traditional forms of marketing. The last thing any company wants to do is spend tons of money on traditional forms of advertising and not see the type of results they wanted from their advertising efforts. So rather than spending millions of dollars on traditional advertising, companies use this form of marketing called network marketing to market their products or services. This allows independent entrepreneurs who join their company to get paid handsomely to market their products or services.

Wealthy people understand the power of networks, corporations and businesses also understand the power of networks. This is why many people who are rich and powerful use networks, and why big time corporations such as TVI Express also use networks.

If you take a look at a law called Metcalfe’s Law, you too will also understand the power of networks.

Metcalfe’s law states that the economic power of a business is the square of the number in the network. In terms of network marketing businesses’ this means that the number of people you have in your network squared equals the economic value of your network marketing business, the higher your economic value the richer you become.

For example:

If you are the only one in your network marketing business then your economic value is 1, according to Metcalfe’s law.

1:12 = the economic value of 1

But as soon as you have two people in your network marketing business, the economic value of your business increases exponentially, not linearly. This means that if you have two people in your network marketing business your business’s economic value equals 4, not 2.

1:22 = the economic value of 4

When you build your network marketing business to ten people, the economic value of your business is 100, not 10.

1:102 = the economic value of 100

When you understand Metcalfe’s Law, the law of networks, you can see the power of network marketing and why network marketing companies offer such powerful tools to the average person.

For example:

Let’s say a person decides to join a network marketing company and learns how to build their business. When they join their leverage ratio and economic value is 1, since they are the only one in their network.

1:12 = the economic value of 1

Over time this person learns how to build their business and eventually grows their business to 5 people who will also be trained on how to build their own business. Now the person’s leverage ratio and economic value is 25, and looks like this:

1:52 = the economic value of 25

As time goes on this person gets really good at building their business and training others how to build their own business. This person has now grown their business to 10 people, and now has a leverage ratio and economic value of 100, which looks like this:

1:102 = the economic value of 100

Now lets say that this person has made up their mind that ten people is enough and decides to only concentrate and train the ten people in his network. Over time the ten people in his network also attract and train ten people which is a leverage ratio of 1:10:10. This means that the original person now has 100 people in their network with an economic value of 10,ooo:

1:1002 = the economic value of 10,000

In just a short time this person has drastically increased their economic value and is suddenly far wealthier and has a lot more money than their peers.

This example is why network marketing companies are recommended to people who are looking for financial freedom. Network marketing companies use Metcalfe’s law, which is the law that measures the power of networks.

If you follow the lessons taught by some network marketing companies, build a solid business with solid people in your network, and truly work hard to make those in your network rich, they in turn will make you very rich and secure. Network marketing businesses’ are secure businesses’ because you are counting on the people you have grown to love, trust, and those whom you have built a relationship with, and all of you are harnessing the power of Metcalfe’s law.

In the case of the network marketing company TVI Express, the power of networks and Metcalfe’s law is multiplied by up to 14x through their compensation plan. Because of this enormous exponential jump in TVI Express’s compensation plan the average person can put an enormous amount of money in their pocket. Furthermore the exponential jump in their compensation plan explains why tons of people are flocking to the company and joining by the boat loads.

Metcalfe’s law states that when a person joins a network marketing company their leverage ratio and economic value is 1, since they are the only one in their network.

1:12 = the economic value of 1

When someone decides to join TVI Express the persons leverage ratio and economic value automatically starts off anywhere from 64 to 196.

1:82= the economic value of 64

1:142= the economic value of 196

How is this possible? Because when you join TVI Express, through their unique compensation plan you are placed on a board with anywhere from 7 other people up to 14 other people who are all working together and harnessing the power of Metcalfe’s law. Watch this short video presentation below as it explains TVI Express’s powerful compensation plan.

If you’re going to join TVI Express the most import question you should be asking yourself isn’t “What is TVI Express?” Instead the two most important questions you should be asking yourself is: “If I join TVI Express how do I build and grow my TVI Express business?” And, “If I join TVI Express how do I decide what TVI Express team to join?”

I’m glad you asked those questions! The answers are simple.

First, the answer to building and growing your TVI Express business is to use a marketing S.Y.S.T.E.M and duplication.

The first thing you must realize is that people do business with people, not business opportunities! Furthermore, people do business with people they know, like, and trust. So you must understand that no matter how good your business opportunity is no one is going to join if you’re pitching your business opportunity them and you have not established any kind of relationship or trust with them.

After you join TVI Express ask yourself, “Why would anyone want to join me in business?” If you can’t answer this question you will more than likely have a hard time building your TVI Express business. If you have nothing of value to offer anyone else like: knowledge on how to build a TVI Express business or marketing strategies that will build any network marketing company’s business including TVI Express’s, then why would anyone want to join you in business when you have nothing of value to offer that can help them. Learn to build value and brand yourself as a leader and you’ll have no problem building your TVI Express business. Through my marketing S.Y.S.T.E.M this is exactly what I teach.

The acronym S.Y.S.T.E.M stands for saving yourself time, energy, & money. If you are in network marketing and you are not using a marketing system, unless you are a person who has an influence on tons of people, you are highly unlikely to succeed.

Using specific marketing strategies, marketing systems teach you exactly how to sponsor an endless supply of people into your network marketing company. They also teach you marketing strategies on how to drive tons of traffic to your websites allowing you to sponsor even more people. And finally marketing systems allow you to leverage yourself when it comes to training anyone you sponsor into your company. It is impossible to train a downline that has reached into the thousands. So therefore, in order to grow massive organizations and huge downlines you have to leverage yourself when it comes to training the people in your downline. Marketing systems makes this easy by allowing you to simply plug in anyone you sponsor into the exact same system you’re using and let the system teach them for you, saving yourself time, energy, & money.

Good training systems will also allow for duplication. If you sponsor someone and they can’t duplicate your success chances are they will quit on you. Marketing systems provide specialized training and marketing strategies to everyone you sponsor. These trainings and strategies will provide the necessary knowledge and know how to everyone you sponsor allowing them to explode their business and “your downline.” They in turn can then repeat this process, duplicating your success.

Finally, the answer to “What TVI Express team should you join?” Picking the right TVI Express team to join is vital to your success. 90% of people who join any network marketing company will fail. This is due to lack of training. When you pick a TVI Express team you want to make sure the team you pick has a training system in place that will teach you how to market your business, duplicating the success of the person who sponsored you into the business. Furthermore you want to make sure the TVI Express team you join has a training system in place so you can simply plug in all the people you sponsor into your business into the training system allowing you to leverage yourself and teach your sign-ups how to duplicate your success which will explode your downline and business. This training system is provided to you free of charge at the end of this post. Lastly you want to make sure your TVI Express sponsor can sit down with you and put together a proven marketing plan that you can follow step by step that will ensure your success in the company.

These are all things I do for each and every individual who joins my TVI Express team. If you are serious about joining TVI Express to become financially independent it will be my pleasure to be your tour guide on your journey to financial freedom. However, I am only willing to work with those who are serious, entrepreneurial minded, and those who can humble themselves enough to listen and be taught. Being teachable and able to follow directions are must have requirements. The road to financial freedom requires persistence, determination, and perseverance. As my mentor once told me “success isn’t a race, but a marathon.”

However, time is of the essence!

The most destructive word to your success is “tomorrow.” In business you must have a burning since of urgency when it comes to taking action and getting things done. Procrastination is a surefire way to guarantee that your business will die.

Time is our most single valuable asset and our most precious commodity of all. The less financially educated people of the world often say, “I’ve got all the time in the world.”

Wrong!

Once we spend time, that’s it. Just try to get back a year, a week, or even a second of your life. It’s not going to happen. Time is fleeting. Snap your fingers and it’s gone forever, hence the saying “time flies.”

The rich and powerful people of the world value their time more than their money. They have a “ready, fire, aim,” mentality and they take action quick, fast, and first. They don’t procrastinate and they don’t let opportunities past them by, neither should you!

Your future is created by what you do today, not tomorrow. So don’t put off till tomorrow what you can do today. When it comes to success timing is everything. Don’t waist any more valuable time, take action and start your journey to financial freedom today!

BORESHA COFFEE TRAINING HERE

If you are considering joining Boresha Coffee this Boresha Coffee Review was written with the intentions and purposes of educating you to be able to make an informed decision about joining Boresha Coffee and how to go about marketing and advertising your new found venture should you decide to join Boresha Coffee.

What is Boresha Coffee?

Simply put, Boresha Coffee is a multi-level marketing company that has taped into the $70 Billion Dollar per year coffee industry. Second to water, coffee is the most popular beverage in the world and the second largest traded commodity worldwide. These facts alone proves that there is plenty of money to be made in the coffee industry but will Boresha Coffee be able to capitalize on it?

Boresha Coffee Products

Boresha Coffee markets an arabica coffee which they claim to be dramatically superior in quality to the other principal commercial coffee species. While all signs point to Boresha Coffee products being great products, the statement that their coffee is superior in quality to the other principal commercial coffee species is a very bold statement; a statement which is hard to believe to be 100% accurate considering that there are tons of other coffee products on the market.  Also Boresha Coffee prices are fairly high when compared to other coffee products on the market. One would find it hard to believe that people will continue to pay such a high price for coffee when they can go right down to their local neighborhood Starbucks and have a cup of joe just as good for a cheaper price.

Then there is the claim that with there introduction of “Skinny Science” their coffee is the first low Glycemic coffee that controls hunger, balances energy, burns fat, and combats stress-related eating. This is also a hard to believe statement. With all of the weight loss products on the market it’s hard to believe that Boresha Coffee will make you lose weight. Honestly the secret to losing weight always has been and always will be to eat less calories than you burn in a day. Combined with a proper diet and a consistent work out routine, eating less calories than you burn in a day is how you lose weight. One should not be fooled into thinking that by drinking a cup of coffee, eating what ever you want, and not working out that you will lose weight.

Boresha Coffee Business Training

If you go to Boresha Coffee’s website and take a look at what kind of training program they offer their distributors you will find the same out of date and non-effective type of training recommendations that majority of multi-level marketing company’s offer their distributors.

When you look at Boresha Coffee’s training pages you will find statements such as:

“You can build a successful business by simply making a referral for those people you know, or even those you don’t know, to try this amazing single-source coffee.”

“So by simply doing what you do anyway, making a referral and letting people try this amazing coffee, you will be building a successful Boresha business”

“The Boresha business model offers individuals the opportunity to build a successful business of their own by simply making a referral to people, much like is done everyday.”

And the statements go on and on. Fact is 9 out of 10 people who join any network marketing company will fail due to lack of training provided by their up-lines and network marketing company’s. Training recommendations such as make referrals to any and everyone who will listen to what you have to say about your company’s products. This type of advice only helps spread the word about the network marketing company’s products, which helps the network marketing company out, not you.

The truth is that unless you are a person who has an influence on tons of people already it is next to impossible to build a successful business just by referring people to use your company’s products. Furthermore, even if you do have an influence on a lot of people and you can get a lot of people to join you in business 9 times out of 10 the people you get to join you in business will not have an influence on anybody at all which will cause them to be unsuccessful in the network marketing company ultimately leading to them quitting the company altogether and dropping out of your downline.

So what is the answer to all of this?

Systems, duplication, and attraction marketing. In order for you to build large network marketing organizations you have to leverage yourself and use systems that allow you to plug people into the same system you’re using. Then you let the system do all the training for you. This will allow the people you sign up to duplicate your success and stay an active member in the network marketing company and your downline.

Also as network marketing professionals we are in the business of attraction marketing. This is where you learn to attract customers to you instead of you chasing down any and everybody who will listen to your business opportunity, which usually doesn’t work. Learn to brand yourself as a leader, build value to offer other people, learn how to introduce your business opportunity to a specific target market and I promise you will have people hunting you down to join you in business and you’ll never have to “pitch” your business opportunity again.

Should you need help with any of this you can get my training tips, marketing strategies, and success secrets here: Boresha Coffee Training

A Review of AlivaMax Worldwide Leadership:

An important determining factor when joining any network marketing company are the leaders of the company. What is their background? Do they have a proven successful track record in network marketing? Etc.

Success or failure, the destiny of AlivaMax is under the leadership of Co-Founders Jerry Ricks and Mark J. Sain.

Jerry Ricks

In 1989 Jerry Ricks entered the telecom industry and in 11 years time, he built a prepaid telecom company that was grossing $1 million a day. In 2000 Jerry retired from the telecom industry, and in 2008 he teamed up with Mark J. Sain to launch AlivaMax Worldwide.

Mark J. Sain

At 15 Mark J. Sain started a moving & hauling company called “Students Will Move You.” In 1986 Mark started a company called US Payphone, Inc. that quickly became one of the largest independent payphone companies in America. In 1993 Mark sold the payphone company to a public company to focus on business domestic and international operator-assisted calls. Over the next 15 years under the name of USP Communications the company was doing business in several countries. And after 23 years of successful business domestically and internationally, Mark teamed up with Jerry to form AlivaMax Worldwide.

While Mark and Jerry do have a strong and successful business background I can’t say for sure or not if they have what it takes to make this company a success. From doing my research I’ve found a lot of unprofessional things going on within the company, from the changing of size and prices of their products, to the restructuring of their compensation plans, to the unprofessional conference calls, to the unwillingness to listen to their distributors suggestions, and the lack of training for their distributors. Due to all these factors it is hard to say if the company will be able to keep enough momentum to become a long term company. Only time will tell.

A Review of AlivaMax Worldwide Compensation Plan:

As an Alivamax distributor there are actually five different ways you can get paid. The first way of getting paid is from Retail Sells and the second way is in Fast Start Bonuses. The third and fourth ways of geting paid as an Alivamax distributor is from a Forced Matrix and a 100% Matching Bonus pay plan. These two pay plans are the main two ways of getting paid in Alivamax. Finally the last way of getting paid is from a Global Bonus Pool.

Lets take a closer look at each way you can get paid as an AlivaMax distributor by breaking down and analyzing each of these pay plans.

1. Retail Sells: Retailing is pretty much self explanatory; you get paid the difference from retail and wholesale prices from the products you retail.

2. Fast Start Bonuses: Fast Start Bonuses are usually lump sum payments of up to 100% of the first month’s membership of anyone you sponsor. In AlivaMax’s case it’s up to 50%. These types of bonuses are typically used as an incentive to sponsor more people. Fast start bonuses are usually seldom since 9 out of 10 people who join network marketing companies will never be able to sponsor enough people to make more money then they are spending. This means 9 out of 10 people have no idea how to market their products and company to ever see multiple fast start bonuses.

3. 3×10 Forced Matrix:

A forced matrix is similar to a uni-level matrix but it limits the amount of people each person can have on their first level. In AlivaMax’s case they use a 3×10 forced matrix as shown above.

With a 3×10 forced matrix the most people you can have on your first level is limited to 3 people. The most people each of those 3 people can have on their first level is also limited to 3 people which will give you a total of 9 people on your second level. This pattern keeps going on and on all the way down to level 10 as shown below. When you total all 10 levels up you get a grand total of 88,572 people.

Level 1: 3
Level 2: 9
Level 3: 27
Level 4: 81
Level 5: 243
Level 6: 729
Level 7: 2,187
Level 8: 6,561
Level 9: 19,683
Level 10: 59,049
Total – 88,572

Receiving a $1 for each person, theoretically you would make $88,572 every month from this matrix. However, in reality this will never happen because everyone in your downline will not get 3 people.

One advantage of a forced matrix pay plan is Spillover. Spillover is when anyone sponsor’s more people then can fit on their first level. Those extra people would then be forced under someone else in the person’s downline who sponsored more than 3 people on their first level. This can be a good and bad thing. It can potentially be a good thing because essentially the person who is working hard to sponsor tons of people is also helping out everyone in his downline by giving them spillover. Spillover may motivate some people to go out in the field and work harder, however, this can also be a bad thing because it can also make some people lazy giving them the impression they can just sit around and do nothing while the capitalize on all the spillover they accrue. This is dangerous because anyone that is educated in the field of network marketing knows that you will NEVER build massive organization, large downlines, and substantial incomes counting on spillover.

4. Matching Bonus:

Matching Bonuses, sometimes called Sponsor Bonuses, are often used with forced matrix pay plans. This is usually a monthly recurring bonus you earn via the people you personally sponsor. Alivamax rewards their distributors with an opportunity to earn a 100% matching bonus on the people you personally sponsor in the business. Meaning you will make a 100% matching bonus of whatever the people you personally sponsor make in their 3×10 forced matrix commissions. This type of pay plan encourages sponsors to make sure the people they personally sponsor are successful in the company. However, you can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him drink. Meaning, a sponsor can show you how to be successful, but no one can force anyone to do the work it takes to be successful in this industry. The choice to be successful in this industry is ultimately up to each individual who gets involved in network marketing.

5. Global Bonus Pool: Each month the company puts 20% of the profits from all re-orders into what’s called a global bonus pool and shares it with the qualified distributors of the company. This is a huge incentive to be one of the top distributors in the company.

A Review of AlivaMax Worldwide Business Training:

A good training program will consist of two things. A marketing S.Y.S.T.E.M and duplication.

The acronym S.Y.S.T.E.M stands for saving yourself time, energy, & money. If you are in network marketing and you are not using a marketing system, unless you are a person who has an influence on tons of people, you are highly unlikely to succeed.

Using specific marketing strategies, marketing systems teach you exactly how to sponsor an endless supply of people into your network marketing company. They also teach you marketing strategies on how to drive tons of traffic to your websites allowing you to sponsor even more people. And finally marketing systems allow you to leverage yourself when it comes to training anyone you sponsor into your company. It is impossible to train a downline that has reached into the thousands. So therefore, in order to grow massive organizations and huge downlines you have to leverage yourself when it comes to training the people in your downline. Marketing systems makes this easy by allowing you to simply plug in anyone you sponsor into the exact same system you’re using and let the system teach them for you, saving yourself time, energy, & money.

Good training systems will also allow for duplication. If you sponsor someone and they can’t duplicate your success chances are they will quit on you. Marketing systems provide specialized training and marketing strategies to everyone you sponsor. The trainings and strategies will provide the necessary knowledge and know how to everyone you sponsor allowing them to explode their business and “your downline.” They in turn can then repeat this process, duplicating your success.

When I look at the training provided by AlivaMax I found that the training currently being offered is the same out of date training most network marketing companies offer their distributors. 90% of people in network marketing are spending more money than they are making and this is due to inadequate and out of date training by sponsors and their network marketing company’s. If you take a look at the statistics you will find that 200,000+ people join the network marketing industry a week and a 180,000 of those people will do nothing but lose money from spending money on monthly auto-ship dues to their company, and other non-effective marketing materials.

Looking at AlivaMax’s training section you will find out of date marketing strategies and techniques such as handing out business cards, post cards, and sizzle cards. Would you join a network marketing company just because someone left a post card on your windshield? You will also find strategies and techniques teaching you to put up road signs, newspaper ads, craigslist ads and invite people to conference calls. Lets be real, who wants to walk along the side of streets and freeways putting up road signs? All of these strategies being taught by AlivaMax are out of date which explains why 9 out of 10 distributors will only lose money. None of the top producers in the network marketing industry use these marketing methods. Bottom line is that network marketing has always been and always will be a business of building relationship, and the mentioned items above just don’t do that. People buy into people, not business opportunities. You have to establish a relationship and gain trust from people before anyone will join you in business. No trust, no sale!

What AlivaMax dosen’t want you to know is that they’re more concerned with product sales than they are with your success. They’re more interested in gaining loyal consumers of their products every month which will ensure residual income for them. This is why they have excellent salesmen in place to handle the company sells. Distributors that jump in and out of the business, due to inadequate training on their part, aren’t very high on their priority list.

So What’s My Personal Opinion on AlivaMax?

Over the last few years of my life I’ve been fortunate enough to have enjoyed tons of success in the network marketing industry. I’ve come to realize that it’s not hardly about ANY product or company you choose to join or market, AlivaMax included, but it’s about your ABILITY to market in the first place.

Marketing and advertising is the life line of your business. If you stop marketing and advertising you stop getting paid!

Many new comers to network marketing, direct selling, and the home-based business industry join a business first, then they figure out they need to market. This is completely backwards! If you want to create the most success possible, learn how to MARKET FIRST, and then pick your business. Once you know the science of marketing you can be successful in any endeavor.

Any business, again including AlivaMax, is literally USELESS to the starting out marketer… unless you know how to market, how to generate leads, and the principles behind succeeding in this industry first.

I have watched plenty of people fall on their faces, regardless of their products or companies, because they simply do not know how to market, or build their businesses FIRST. Your job as an entrepreneur is to EDUCATE yourself first and foremost, to develop yourself, and to ALWAYS be learning and growing.

This is the true formula for success. If you follow that formula, and really seek knowledge to market your business like a professional… then you will have major advantages over most AlivaMax distributors.

Let me give you some advice. When it comes to advertising and marketing your business, leading with your business opportunity is about the worst thing you can do to grow your business. As direct selling, network marketing, and home-based business professionals we are in the business of “Attraction Marketing” not “pitch my business opportunity to any and everyone who will listen.”

The #1 rule of marketing is selecting a target market. When you identify a target market, then identify your target market’s problem, and finally, provide a solution to your target market, you will have people hunting you down trying to buy whatever it is your selling. Pitching your business opportunity to any and everyone who may or may not be interested is pointless. Learn to target the right people to introduce your business to, learn to build value, and learn to brand yourself as a leader and I PROMISE you will never have to “PITCH” your business opportunity again.

Words of Encouragement

As most of you know, time flies whether you are having fun or not! It’s hard to believe that we are already putting action plans in place for 2010, which is certain to be one of the best, if not they best year in history for active home-based business entrepreneurs. It seems like yesterday, it was just January 2009!

It’s as if every time I blink another week has passed, and now an entire year has passed.

As you prepare for the New Year, in the midst of a tough economy, I hope you are able to focus on positive things rather than the negative things, and on what you have rather than what you do not have.

Keeping a positive mental attitude is essential to your success whether you are measuring success by your health and happiness or in dollars and cents.

The negative attitude will destroy your motivation, which will hurt your confidence, which then will cause you to lose focus and direction. You can have your hands on a great opportunity and have a well thought out plan, but if you lose focus and motivation, you will likely also lose the opportunity.

As you are setting your goals for 2010 keep your motivation in mind, and focus on how you plan to keep your momentum throughout the year. Motivation is extremely important and while most people are able to get motivated on occasion, they fail to maintain the hunger and motivation for a long enough period of time to see results. There is no doubt you will encounter periods of low energy, bad luck, and the occasional failure, but don’t let these minor speed bumps turn into major disasters. Be on guard against these motivation killers and you can keep your momentum and propel yourself to success.

When making your goals this week, and I hope you are doing just that, make sure you have a plan and make sure that plan includes deadlines”.

Deadlines Motivate!

If you have forever to do something…Why do it now?

2010 looks to be a HUGE year for home-based business professionals!
SET YOUR GOALS ACCORDINGLY!

Enormous financial success in the network marketing industry comes from several variables, but the three most important must have’s are:

  • OPPORTUNITY
  • MOTIVATION
  • KNOWLEDGE

OPPORTUNITY: With all of the negative factors currently affecting our economy there will be millions upon millions of people flocking to the internet to find new ways of making money. The combination of our present job loss rate, unemployment rate, and bad economy has created an OPPORTUNITY that, in my opinion, we will never see again! Learn to be a leader and position yourself to lead these people to financial freedom and you’ll have people joining you in droves creating a once in a lifetime opportunity for yourself and your newly found business partners.

Anyone that does not capitalize on this is sure to regret it down the road!!!

As they say, Years from now you will be far more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the things you did do. I strongly urge you to get involved in network marketing in the New Year and take advantage of an enormous financial opportunity that can set you and your family up or life.

Picture how different your life would be right now with an additional monthly income of $10,000 to $50,000. Whatever your financial goals may be, whether it’s an extra $100,000 per year or a Million, set your goals accordingly while the opportunity is here.

DO NOT LET SOMEONE ELSE DETER YOU FROM PURSUING WEALTH!!!

Do you realize that only 2% of Americans earn $250,000 or more, which is a number that is VERY attainable in network marketing!!! Be a 2%’er, not a 98%’er!

The majority of people usually pick out the negatives instead of focusing on the opportunity. They never like to see anyone succeed since they’re not. DO NOT listen to the detractors, they are negative and bad for your wealth! When the public says, stay away, that’s typically the best time to jump in!! That is why Warren Buffet, one of the wealthiest men today says, where there is greed, be fearful, and where there is fear, be greedy! Take note, the wealthy are taking advantage of the market. Who do you want to follow, the Warren Buffets of the world or the person at work, or worse yet, a family member that tells you not to get started and not to pursue your dream? Be careful who you listen to, misery loves company!

MOTIVATION: As far as motivation goes, –again, think about how different your life would be if you made an additional $500,000 per year. I use $500,000 because some have simpler goals of making $100,000 per year and some have goals that are ten times that. It all depends on the person, but either one is very attainable with the opportunity in today’s economy if you get involved and take action now. Think about how life would be with that type of income and all the great things you would be able to do and people you would be able to help. Think about the things you are currently unhappy with in life and how a financial windfall and a schedule that is dictated by YOU would change things. That should be motivation enough! Once you have momentum and start seeing success, keeping the motivation is easy.

KNOWLEDGE: Very critical to your success in anything as you probably know. Without the knowledge, the opportunity will be lost, no matter how great it is. Without the knowledge, motivation will be impossible to maintain and your focus will be lost. Once focus is lost, your goals cannot be reached. Knowledge is critical and as strategies change, continued education will be critical. If there is anything that I can help you with throughout the year, please feel free to contact me anytime.

If you are interested in personal mentoring and training, where I’ll show you how to become a success, please visit the mentoring and training section of this site and I will be happy to discuss my mentoring and training program with you.

In closing, I hope you set lofty goals and concrete plans on reaching them! And I wish you a very Safe, Happy, and Prosperous New Year!!!

Riches vs. Wealth

If you look up the word rich in the dictionary you will find that the definition of the word rich means having wealth or great possessions; abundantly supplied with resources, means, or funds; wealthy. If you look up the word wealth in the dictionary you will find that the word wealth means a great quantity or store of money, valuable possessions, property, or other riches.

So is it better to be rich or wealthy? Using the dictionary’s definition of rich and wealth, one could be unsure whether it is better to be rich or wealthy. The dictionary’s definition of the two words are somewhat similar and intertwined, which could cause confusion when it comes to comprehending the definition of the two words clearly. If you want to stay confused keep trying to understand the difference between the two words using the dictionary’s definition, but if you want to have a clear understanding of what it means to be rich and wealthy think outside the box and consider my own personal definitions.

When it comes to the words rich and wealth, I have two totally different definitions than the dictionary. First off let’s look at the word rich. (And again this is just my opinion.) The word rich has nothing to do with money. To me the word rich simply means to be happy. Being rich is having the things in life that make you the happiest. Things such as your friends, family, loved ones, significant others, your health, etc. These are all things that money can not buy. In most cases these are also the meaningful things in life that can and will sustain your happiness and joy. What ever makes you happy in life and brings you joy and fulfillment are the things that make you rich. Ask any wealthy person can money buy true happiness and chances are they will tell you no. It may buy temporary fun and joy, but the fun and joy that money buys is short lived and soon you will need more money for more joy, more fun, and more happiness. Temporary is the perfect word to describe the joy and happiness you get from money because it’s just that, temporary. Hence the saying “the best things in life are free.”

Now let’s look at the word wealth. My own personal definition of wealth is simply freedom, freedom to do whatever you want, whenever you want. I once heard Oprah say that true freedom is waking up getting out of bed everyday and doing whatever it is that you want to do, not what you have to do. However, freedom is not free. You have to work hard for it. When I talk about the word freedom I’m not talking about being free in the since of being freed from captivity or anything like that. I’m talking about being free financially. To understand wealth and financial freedom lets take a look at a definition I read a long time age.

Being wealthy simply means that you earn more money in “passive income,” money you take home every month whether you work for it or not, than your monthly expenses. For example: let’s say that your total expenses for the month came to $5,000 every single month. That includes your rent/mortgage, food, gas, water, loan payments, etc. Let’s also say that includes money for you to go out and have a good time every month as well. Well if you can figure out a way to make more than $5,000 in “passive income” every month, you are now wealthy and financially free. Technically you never have to work a day in your life again, unless you increase your expenses.

So back to my original question. Which is better, riches or wealth? Personally I rather have both! ; )

Network Marketing Business & The Power Of Networks

If you are taking the time out of your very busy day to read this post chances are you are wondering what exactly is network marketing.

Network marketing is a modern professional distribution method of products or services through a network of independent entrepreneurs. Network marketing is one of the most rewarding home-based businesses’ you can start today.

Instead of spending tons of money on traditional forms of advertising such as TV, radio, magazines, billboards and so on, which can be hit or miss, network marketing allows parent companies to market their products directly to consumers, through relationships, through referrals, and direct selling. Many traditional businesses’ use this form of marketing today. Using this form of marketing allow these businesses’ to reach customers they might not otherwise when using traditional forms of marketing. The last thing any company wants to do is spend tons of money on traditional forms of advertising and not see the type of results they wanted from their advertising efforts. So rather than spending millions of dollars on traditional advertising, companies use this form of marketing called network marketing to market their products or services. This allows independent entrepreneurs who join their company to get paid handsomely to market their products or services.

Today there are thousands of network marketing companies operating all over the world. Network marketing is reported to be a $100 billion dollar industry, internationally, made up of FORTUNE 500 and New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) companies. According to the Direct Selling Association (DSA) over 13 million people in the U.S. alone are involved in network marketing.

While doing some reading from one of my favorite author’s books I came across a law called Metcalfe’s Law. When you apply this law to a network marketing business it explains the power of networks and the power of network marketing companies. Robert Metcalfe is one of the founders of 3Com, the company responsible for bringing you the PalmPilot. Metcalfe’s law states that the economic power of a business is the square of the number in the network. In terms of network marketing businesses’ this means that the number of people you have in your network squared equals the economic value of your network marketing business, and the higher your economic value the richer you become.

For example:

If you are the only one in your network marketing business then your economic value is 1, according to Metcalfe’s law.

1:12 = the economic value of 1

But as soon as you have two people in your network marketing business, the economic value of your business increases exponentially, not linearly. This means that if you have two people in your network marketing business your business’s economic value equals 4, not 2.

1:22 = the economic value of 4

When you build your network marketing business to ten people, the economic value of your business is 100, not 10.

1:102 = the economic value of 100

When you understand Metcalfe’s Law, the law of networks, you can see the power of network marketing and why network marketing companies offer such powerful tools to the average person.

For example:

Let’s say a person decides to join a network marketing company and learns how to build their business. When they join their leverage ratio and economic value is 1, since they are the only one in their network.

1:12 = the economic value of 1

Over time this person learns how to build their business and eventually grows their business to 5 people who will also be trained on how to build their own businesses’. Now the person’s leverage ratio and economic value is 25, and looks like this:

1:52 = the economic value of 25

As time goes on this person gets really good at building their business and training others how to build their own businesses’. This person has now grown their business to 10 people, and now has a leverage ratio and economic value of 100, which looks like this:

1:102 = the economic value of 100

Now lets say that this person has made up their mind that ten people is enough and decides to only concentrate and train the ten people in his network. Over time the ten people in his network also attract and train ten people which is a leverage ratio of 1:10:10. This means that the original person now has 100 people in their network with an economic value of 10,ooo:

1:1002 = the economic value of 10,000

In just a short time this person has drastically increased their economic value and is suddenly far wealthier and has a lot more money than their peers.

This example is why network marketing companies are recommended to people who are looking for financial freedom. Network marketing companies use Metcalfe’s law, which is the law that measures the power of networks.

If you follow the lessons taught by some network marketing companies, build a solid business with solid people in your network, and truly work hard to make those in your network rich, they in turn will make you very rich and secure. Network marketing businesses’ are secure businesses’ because you are counting on the people you have grown to love, trust, and those whom you have built a relationship with, and all of you are harnessing the power of Metcalfe’s law.

In closing I would like to say that the rich, wealthy, and powerful understand and use the power of networks. McDonald’s is a network of hamburger chains, General Motors is a network of car dealerships, Exxon is an oil company with a network of oil fields, tankers, pipelines, and gas stations linked throughout the world, Safeway is a network of food stores, CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN, PBS, CBN are all powerful communication networks. Networks are powerful forms of leverage. If you want to be rich, build a network and network with other networks. If the rich and the powerful use networks, shouldn’t you?

History of Network Marketing

Like many successful concepts, the discovery of true network marketing was a pure accident. Network Marketing was started in the early 1940’s by a company called California Vitamins, who later changed their name to NutraLite Food Supplement Corporations, and is now over 50 years old. While doing business California Vitamins noticed that all their new sale reps. were friends and/or family members of their current sale reps, mainly because they wanted California Vitamins products at wholesale prices. From this new hiring trend the company also noticed that it was easier to find a whole lot of motivated sale reps. who could sale a little, rather than finding a few heavy hitters who could sell enormous amounts of product.

After observing those two trends the company created a compensation plan and business structure that encouraged their sales reps. to recruit new sale reps. from satisfied customers, who happen to be mostly friends and family, who would have the same rights to sale and market their products as the company’s existing sale reps. This allowed the company’s sales and sale reps. to grow exponentially. The company compensated their sale reps. for the sales created by their entire group, or the network of sale reps. Thus network marketing was born!

In 1959, California Vitamins, then called NutraLite, former distributors Rich DeVoss and Jay Van Andel started what is arguably the mother of all network marketing companies, Amway Global, which set the standard and made a path for the thousands of network marketing companies that exist today.
