Pay One Time and Cruise Forever

Admin — Fri, 21 May 2010 21:32:16 +0000

Can you get your mind around this idea? Pay ONE time and CRUISE for years in the future. We love the idea but still having trouble believing it’s possible. Wish we could do that at Harris Teeter or Food Lion. Paying ONE time is simply NOT normal for us.

My sponsor, our friend who introduced us to the NetTRAVexpress system has already been on a cruise and has banked 6 or 8 more. Can you imagine the excitement of finding so many cruises and vacation trips in your bonus package? It can turn into an “overwhelming” challenge for you to have so much FUN.

Some of us have never taken more than ONE vacation a year and can’t imagine 3 or 5 vacation packages sitting in our travel bank. Jeff says get over it, this is REAL for everyone on our team. Under pressure we decided to give it a try!!

At our house, we’re going to do our best to take more vacations in the future. Why not? They are FREE and we feel bad letting them sit on the bonus shelf and go to waste.

When we worked everyday it was beyond our foggiest thoughts that we’d ever have such an opportunity in our future. How about YOU?

Go to our travel website and hear what Deb Smith, CEO has to say about traveling to exotic resorts and luxury cruises. Awesome!

Network Marketing for Entrepreneurs

Admin — Wed, 28 Apr 2010 03:02:06 +0000

Network Marketing has made more millionaires than any known industry in the marketplace today. Few things are more exciting than working less and making more.

However, there’s a big problem because of the stuff some folks try to tell others without understanding their business plan or what’s involved to be successful. A red flag for all of us to be careful.

Sure, some folks are mislead and simply repeat bad information from lack of training and ignorance. Most of us are aware that due diligence is a necessity today in considering any business venture.

Franchising and the network marketing industry are no exception. A few franchises are exceptional, some are very good, then you have the losers at the end of the line. Same goes for old and new network marketing firms. Integrity and trust are often missing in the details.

Some reasons for extreme success in business are often hidden from the naked eye, even from expert advisers or consultants. A “people” business, industry connections, cannot be bought at any price unless you buy the company, not a franchise opportunity in another city.

Experience is likely the greatest teacher of all-time. Two weeks at the home office training camp and 3 manuals of policies and procedures is insufficient time to learn a business inside out. Tens of thousands of dollars can be lost buying a business or franchise offering.

What do we recommend? Locate a successful franchisee, buy his/her dinner and offer to work FREE for 90 days at their location. Sling the burgers, cut the grass, repair the windshields, or whatever franchisees do for this great opportunity you’ve been offered.

After owning several franchises and other business entities, we believe the network marketing industry offers the least risk, greatest potential to make BIG money, residual income for life and early retirement for those willing to invest the time and energy to build the business.

Ask Your BOSS for Residual Income…

Admin — Sat, 19 Dec 2009 22:18:30 +0000

Our business at MonteithPartners,LLC is network marketing. You might ask, “Why would anyone choose network marketing for their business model?” Great question, I understand. Let me try to explain.

Unfortunately, only about 3% of the American population has been successful in NWM while the other 97% have failed. Not good odds, right? Even brick and mortar businesses have a 90% fail rate, only 10% survive for 5 or more years.

Every business has challenges. Sometimes it’s as simple as NO cash and that puts a real crimp in operations. Many times it’s lack of know-how and then there’s always the people problems. Usually, there’s a good reason for success or failure. Lack of sales is right up there at the top.

Working for yourself or an employer is never easy. Franchising may be the answer you’re looking for, but let me share my capsule opinion with you. IF you ever dreamed of having your own business then you may find this helpful, I hope so.

First, NEVER believe a franchisor is in “your corner” and concerned about the investment you’re about to make. His concern is that your check is good and will cash at the bank.

Truth is…. you may be the salesman’s ticket to keeping his/her job. No matter how “smart” you are, don’t make major business decisions without your support team, plus legal counsel and accounting expertise. Usually, franchise fees are $20,000 up, so it’s not chump change.

You can do a search on Google.com and request franchise fees for the surprise of your life. Many fees are huge. In my opinion, there is a better way to make a good franchise decision. Hold on to your money! This is not for the faint of heart or for folks without any business expertise.

Network Marketing is our choice for good reason. The entry fee is usually very fair and reasonable, under $500. Vs many thousands to own a simple franchise. Would you pay $23,000 for two weeks training at the home office to learn how to cut grass and fertilize the field? Some willingly do.

The opportunities are exceptional, the product is one everybody has or needs, regular upgrades and/or enhancements are the norm and the money earned on a residual basis is good, sometimes exceptional for those willing to work hard introducing new people to the program.

As you know, most jobs pay for services rendered. Let’s assume you are a hair dresser, a barber, a dentist, a doctor, a lawyer, an auto mechanic, a grass cutter, a landscaper and you can add hundreds more if necessary, but you get the picture. NO show, NO pay, right?

An Insurance Agent sells you a policy and gets paid commissions [residual income] for as long as you have the policy, same goes for the power company, the telephone company, cable TV service, and the network marketing guru who sold you a product/service on “auto-ship”.

Something to think about. You make a sale ONE time and get paid forever is an awesome idea and reality for millions of folks just like you and me.

Our choice business model is Network Marketing in the TRAVEL business where you can build a home based business and see the world, visit exotic luxury resorts and take fabulous cruises, too.

3 Biggest Mistakes

Admin — Sun, 28 Sep 2008 03:29:54 +0000

You’ve maybe known the 3 biggest mistakes any of us can make when looking for our dream job (and how to avoid them) … then you need to know the 2 words that guarantee your success so you can put them into your career search activity program

Most of the competition for your dream job is sitting at home moaning about their lack of opportunity. Complaining that NO one is hiring in my age group; my sex group; my ethnic group; my whatever… it’s never their fault that unemployment is their punishment.

Actually, excuses don’t pay and never will in our lifetime. It’s all about getting off the backside and doing something constructive for yourself. Nobody is going to show up and do it for you.

One BIG problem is that a negative attitude will cancel any positive thought in an interview. An Interviewer can see through the hype and recognize a loser almost instantly. You’re out the door before the interview begins, wondering what happened.

If you want to find success then you have to ACT like it’s already part of your life. Vibrations – our psychic – the real YOU is flowing out into your surrounding space. Everyone sees it but you.

Start with the basics – drive or paddle a row boat before buying the 400 HP speedboat with all the bells and whistles. Be yourself as you seek to grow and make a difference. None of us can be or perform outside our abilities. Trying to “sell” yourself beyond who you really are is a disaster waiting to happen.

Most folks who read – study – seek to learn – are light years ahead of whomever is in 2nd place. Just our offerings of material in the career field – tons of FREE info. – puts our reader 97 percent in front of the remaining workforce.

Getting your dream job is not about secrets or a hidden agenda that we’ve created. Basic principles learned – used – and put into practice will turn the tide for you in your career search.

No more delay – here’s your 2 words that will turn you into a successfully employed person in a career job of your choice.

And they are the two words that, if you master them, make you an indispensable part of any company you choose to work with.

What are these two words?

Have you come up with the answer yourself?

Let me give you a hint.

Everything you have right now started out as a desire to have it.

And you thought about it, planned for it, and worked toward that goal until finally, you could call it your own.

And in the moment you began your path toward achieving each goal, you made a decision.

A very important decision.

You decided to… TAKE ACTION.

Yes, take action.

Those are the two words.

Without taking action, you will not get your dream job.

By deciding you want your dream job, and by taking action to get it, you will guarantee your success, you will not fail.

The “BUCK” Stops On Your Desk

Admin — Sun, 28 Sep 2008 02:16:50 +0000

You can OWN the business or be an employee working for someone else, it makes very little difference, the decisions are in your corner. Don’t look around for a scapegoat because they are all gone and you are “IT”. YOUR neck is on the line.

Reality says, you are the BOSS regardless of where your paycheck comes from. Maybe you don’t see it that way, but YOUR success is connected directly to “who you are” and what you are willing to invest in your job.

If you are an 8 to 5 person then I would not recommend a business ownership for you. YOU are NOT an entrepreneur headed to make millionaire status. It takes NIGHT meetings to rub shoulders with the “power-base” in your marketplace.

Even long hours have NO guarantees connected. Give all you’ve got and still 9 out of 10 firms FAIL to be successful. Not much encouragement to start your own business. It takes lots of time, money and skill to “make it” as a business owner.

Remember all the HYPE about the dot.com era. Money was flowing into their coffers like water runs off a duck, an unending stream of MORE money, the get RICH suddenly became POOR after few of the dot.coms discovered a niche to make a profit.

Being in business is wonderful if you have something valuable to bring into the marketplace. Most products eventually are a “dime-a-dozen” which kills many small businesses. BIG “boys” show up with competitive pricing that often are less than the small player pays to his wholesaler.

Be sure that YOUR product or service cannot be easily duplicated by someone else. Otherwise, somebody will “eat-your-lunch” and force you into a losing situation. Many of the big competitors play “hardball” with their deep pockets and you don’t have a prayer to challenge them.

Something to think about BEFORE you invest your money. Ask the right questions and know the answers before you put your money at risk, especially if you have to borrow it from your family or if you are thinking about asking the bank for a loan.
