Building Tools

You Guys Are All The Same

How have I been doing with my home based business? That's good question and one that many people like to know just to see if working from home really works. Since May of 2005 I have been earning consistently about 1/4 of my engineering salary month after month.

For me personally, I work full time, have 3 children that want my attention as well as my beautiful wife that let's me know that I'm spending too much time working and not spending time with family enough. I thank her for keeping me in check, otherwise I'd just keep working. I have also taken on the responsibility as being a leader in the AWANA program at our church. I have just passed the CA Life Agent exam for my Life Agent License, and successfully passed the Series Series 6 and 63 Securities licenses.

To say that I'm too busy to build a business would be the truth, but I don't make those excuses. Frankly, I take out the TV watching and focus on business in the evening. I also use my daily commute (1 hour each way) to make calls to clients and potential business partners. Totally, I spend about 15 hours each week on my home based business and my average hourly wage for my effort throughout each month is approximately $33-40 hourly.

Does making an income like that happen immediately? No, it could take 3 to 6 months for you to get it there, but it's highly possible to be faster if you have more than 15 hours weekly to put into you home based business. My goal is to make it residual, meaning, I will be paid that continually like a retirement income. Therefore choosing the right companies are critical. Just don't jump into any company that comes along, take your time and study it. There are lots to consider. I use my website here to get people involved in a mentoring program to get them to where they want to be. Helping You Build Your Home Based Business I can help point you in the right direction if you would like my input.

It truly can be rewarding if there are goals you would like to achieve. Having your own home based business is security for your family and for making extra payments for emergencies that come up throughout the year. They will come up, it's only a matter of time and one of them could be losing your job!

It's also exciting to earn as much as you want and be rewarded for a job well done. For example, with Eniva, I was able to win an all expense paid cruise just after six months for my wife and I to Alaska for 7 awesome days from September 17-24, 2006 (airfare included)! What an awesome time my wife and I had. Thank you, Andy and Dr. Ben Baechler! Thank you too, Roger Johnsrud. Your help as my mentor to help speak with my contacts while I was at my day job was so much appreciated. It was the first vacation my wife and I had together without kids in 9 1/2 years! We had a blast!

Perhaps you have not found a home-based business that has worked for you like you thought it should have or the owners ended up closing the business leaving you "out to lunch!".

Unfortunately, that has happened to many people. That is why Networking or the dreaded acronym "MLM" has got a bad rap. I try to look at it from a different angle and I'm optimistic because not all MLMs are bad or Ponzi schemes (money only no products). AKA Pyramid schemes...that one ALWAYS makes me laugh because I know the person hasn't looked very far from where they work now because their entire organization is shaped like a pyramid. To me, when a person says that, it's what their best friend or family members have always told them, and was perhaps a little too gullible to see if it was true or not. I can't blame you, I was the same way.

That is a whole separate discussion, but just for grins...What if I were to tell you that EVERY business is an MLM organization? Tell me, will you ever make more than the Owners or your Boss? If you were to print out the structure, it would look like...a Pyramid! eek! And who REALLY owns you at your job and tells you when to come to work, when you can leave, what kind of car, home or toys you can buy? Get the picture?

I hear this sometimes: "You guys are all the same...blah blah blah." A wise person once said, "Fools are always certain, but wise men leave room for doubt". That impression of the MLM health industry is not unique. I share your skepticism, however, I always seek the exception. My due diligence has proven beyond any doubt, Eniva and VIBE is an exception. These products and companies are the first business ventures which not only met, but actually exceeded my expectations.

The following eBook, Build Your Business Successfully and Simply and Getting People to Buy Before They Know EVERYTHING About The Product were created by a good friend of mine, Roger Johnsrud. If you need help, we are available to help you be successful building your business...again, all YOU have to do is ASK.

My question is to you, "If you know what you have been doing has been getting you the same results, what is really holding you back right now?" Did you know that procrastination is the BIGGEST factor and it will cost you more than TAXES if you let it. Think about it? If you did not save for retirement until you were 50 years old instead of 25 or 35 years old? How much would that cost you? MILLIONS the way compound interest works!

What makes me so great and why am I using an ebook written by someone else? I'm not great, just teachable and I especially DO NOT like to reinvent the wheel! What a waste of time! So many people get wrapped around the wheel thinking they have to build a better website, blah, blah, blah...I'm tired of that already. That is not how you build a business...websites are ONLY informational at best after you have spoken with your clients. That is why I am making these available to you, so you do not have to beat your brain and "eat dirt."

I have personally purchased each one of the following programs below to help build my business. You can learn incredible things from them.

Creating a Growing Business

Natural Selling

Michael Oliver, a career spanning 25 years in sales, has developed a principle based approach that's called "Natural Selling". It completely eliminates objections and rejection.

Nobody likes dealing with objections and rejection...it's tough! There's no doubt, it's probably the most difficult thing for a Distributor and Direct Salesperson to deal with. Frankly, it's probably the biggest reason why most aren't successful.

Of course, most trainers and books will tell you that it's all a numbers game of getting as many "no's" as possible, to expect it (there's a self-fulfilling prophecy!) and that you just have to learn to deal with it and get over it. They even give you techniques to do this.

WRONG! Just take a look at the typical results... Disillusioned Distributors, low Distributor activity, high anxiety and massive downline and customer attrition...

The big problem is that the "objection handling" and "closing" techniques typically taught actually CAUSE more resistance and make things worse! It's crazy!! Sound at all familiar? But now there's GOOD NEWS!...

I HIGHLY recommend this to everyone who wants to be in business for themselves and have a successful home based business.

Don't fall into the old Sales trap

OLD SALES GURU MYTH # 1 - "Cold calling is a numbers game." But, sales is only a numbers game when all you know is traditional selling. Yes, you can call people over and over, chase them until they listen to you so that you just go away. However there is a better - easier method of building trust and getting your product or service message across - all on one call. Simply by changing your sales approach you'll make FEWER CALLS and MORE SALES.

OLD SALES GURU MYTH # 2 - "Use a sales script to cold call." People can tell when you're reading from a script, even if you think you're pretty good at it and getting away with it. There's nothing personal about it and people can pick that up. Being artificial just puts you into the typical "Salesperson" category. If you can learn to get your message across in a different way, you'll eliminate the negative triggers that can lose your sale within seconds.

OLD SALES GURU MYTH # 3 - "Focus on closing the sale." Are you "going in for the kill" with your closing sale technique? - If you are, you could end up killing your deal instead. Old sales techniques do nothing more than pressure the client or prospect, and as a result they naturally want to retreat away from that pressure - and that pressure is you. By learning to avoid the "push and pull" dynamic between you and your prospect, you'll be able to move the sales process forward to get the result you want.

Cold Calling is a Waste of Time

I stumbled across Frank's website and was I impressed. I bought his program and received all the materials as promised and I have NOT been disappointed. Frank J. Rumbauskas Jr. is the "Out of the Box" thinker and I respect him for his knowledge and sales expertise. I have learned so much from his CDs that I listen to them weekly. His materials are EXCELLENT and will get you new business without EVER cold calling. The KEY is to get people to contact YOU instead of YOU contacting them. Just imagine what your life would be like if you never had to waste your time making cold calls or struggling for leads? By using his techniques, I continually get 2-5 leads daily and I'm only using one method out of a dozen he shares in his book.

There are two things you will want to invest in to help you sales that he has, well maybe three:

1. Cold Calling is a Waste of Time (book plus 2 CDs)

2. Sales Mastery (outline with 4 CDs) This will be offered at the time you would purchase Cold Calling is a Waste of Time.

3. Selling Sucks - his latest book - go ahead and check it out on Amazon.
