Network Marketing Today – exciting times

by Charlie on September 21, 2010

This is an incredibly exciting time to be a part of the network marketing industry. We can all raise the bar by working together. Take inspiration from this video and the links shown there. People like Art Jonak, Ken Dunn and Orjan Saele are outstanding leaders. They are showing us how we can support one another without any agenda – to the benefit of everyone.

The tips that Ken shares are priceless. You can learn a whole new take on prospecting from a master. If you follow the link shown at the end of the video, you will go to Art’s YouTube channel where you can view the series (so far 5 and counting). [click to continue…]

MLM Leaders – are you a visionary or a realist?

by Charlie on September 19, 2010

Are you a visionary? Would you rank yourself with Mahatma Gandhi, Lech Walesa, Martin Luther King or Nelson Mandela? Maybe you think people like that are on a different plane to most of us. They certainly achieved extraordinary results, but so could you.

Most people reckon we fall into 3 categories: visionary, realist and pessimist. But realists are just pessimists in disguise. You know the folk who will say “That’s a good idea but is it really practical?” Hmm, well they are actually coming down on the negative side of the equation. So I reckon it is just 2 categories – visionaries and pessimists.

You see, there are two types of people; those who are reasonable and those who are unreasonable. [click to continue…]

Leadership

by Charlie on December 24, 2009

I’ve been reading some inspiring writing by Lee Iacocca, the legendary former boss of the Ford Motor Company and the Chrysler Corporation in the United States. You know the saying about “Putting your money where your mouth is” – well he did just that. Chrysler was on the point of bankruptcy; big cuts were needed; everyone there had to pull together or sink.

Lee cut his own salary to one dollar a year. Then he asked the executives to take a pay cut. Last he went to the union and the workers to ask what they would give and over a 19 month period they made 2.5 billion dollars in concessions!

An inspirational leader must act first and only ask of his followers what he has done already. I highly recommend any of his books. [click to continue…]

Why are you in this business?

by Charlie on December 24, 2009

To make my fortune of course! – I’m looking for financial freedom. – I want to own my life.

Sure – but that’s not enough. You will meet challenges on your journey and you must have a stronger, more specific reason for what you are doing. I’m sure most of you are familiar with ‘vision boards’ and ‘dream books’. Certainly since the release of the film The Secret they have become regular tools for most entrepreneurs.

The majority of people fill them with new cars, houses, holidays etc. As far as they go, they will give you motivation.

But are you a real dreamer, a visionary? Do you want to leave a lasting mark on the world after you have gone? Not necessarily that your name will be remembered – though it might be – but do you dream that many lives will have been enriched by your presence? Possibly even that your legacy will continue to change lives? [click to continue…]

Real Leaders are Visionaries

by Charlie on December 24, 2009

I am stunned and amazed at the dream of my mentor Michael Dlouhy. I was hugely privileged yesterday to be witness to the unveiling of the next stage of his blueprint for building a network marketing business.

I have introduced this giant of man to you on the ‘Powerful Secrets’ page. What he hasn’t experienced in this industry in 30 years is hardly worth knowing about. As he says:

“My purpose is to share what I’ve learned in nearly 30 years in network marketing and present a 10-step success plan you can use with ANY network marketing opportunity”

And more:

“I will train anyone for free. No strings. I am not threatened by anyone or any company in this industry” [click to continue…]

Breakthrough to a Wonderful World

December 24, 2009

After you read this short post, you will feel like the world is at your feet! Here’s a secret – visionaries who change the world seldom reach their goals. How can that be? They set their sights so high that they often don’t get where they want to be. “Well I told you so” say [...]
