It’s the System, Stupid!

“It’s the System, stupid!” — but few businesses really have SYSTEMS.

In fact, I’m writing a little satire book titled ‘Haphazard Marketing’ to describe how most people really do business. Here, I have one great System Suggestion guaranteed to make an immediate and dramatic difference in your business: devise, stick to and enforce a real System for getting a first time, new customer back to purchase within 30 days or less.

Abundant research indicates that make a second purchase the likelihood of long-term, repeat patronage increases by better than 500% if the new customer returns and buys a 2nd time within 30 days of the first purchase. In some industries (like dry cleaning) 3 visits within 30 days forms a habit and virtually guarantees continuous patronage.

Oh, how do you know if you have such a System? It has multiple steps and it is applied without deviation or exception to every first time customer.

A Heart-Felt Thank You, New Book, Free Teleseminar and More!

Hi all,

I’m back in action! I don’t know about you, but things have been a little crazy up here in Virginia…

I was just at a wonderful cruise seminar a couple months ago, then came back to dive right into teaching my one-time-only 6-week online prospecting course. I think I might release edited recordings early next year based on the HUGE demand we experienced. Plus, the fact that we sold out seats to the live event in only 6 days! If you want to get on the priority notification list, and get updates on my plans, visit www.OnlineProspectingSecrets.com.

(To say it was packed with content is an understatement. In fact, the amount of training I offered is MORE than you’d get from 2 full days at a seminar! It definitely wasn’t the same old rehashed crap you see online these days – in fact, some of the training got a little controversial. But my job is to help you make more money…not contribute to the smoke and mirrors online.)

Also, on a more somber note…there have been lots of deaths in 2005. I’ve lost people younger than me, people older than me, and everyone in between. It seems I’m not the only one who has had a year like this either. Definitely helps to remind us there are more important things than just sitting behind a computer screen, calling lead lists, or trying to be an “MLM superwizard” at the expense of time with our family and friends.

So looking back on the craziness of 2005 and taking a pause during the peace of this season, I want you to know how much I appreciate having YOU as a subscriber and client.

On behalf of myself, Lara and the Lifetime Marketing Success, Inc. family please accept my sincere THANK YOU, because it is good friends, clients and affiliates like you that make this part of our online business possible.

Now, it wouldn’t be the holidays if I didn’t have a few surprises and gifts for you. So without further delay, let’s hop into this very special Instant MLM Profit Secrets issue that I prepared for you…

What’s Instant MLM Profit Secrets, you might ask?

Good question…

You see, I spend tons of money buying new information (over $15,000.00 last year alone), checking out new products, attending seminars, reviewing material people send, reading a bunch of books and newsletters, etc.

So to keep up with the trends in network marketing and business, I’ve decided to share with you what’s new, what’s hot and what’s going on inside “Instant MLM Profit Secrets” newsletter/blog. You’ll find this site filled with resources, tips, and stuff I recommend. Just about every month, I’ll let you know about the cool stuff I’ve come across and want to share (unless you’re nuts and unsubscribe). 🙂

Let’s get started…

*************

Find Me At Amazon.com, Barnes & Noble, Borders and More!

Yup – now you can find my unique tips and marketing methods on the shelves at your local bookstore!

You see, a little while back, I was approached by Dr. Joe Rubino (bestselling author of 11 books including Secrets of Building a Million Dollar Network Marketing Organization and The 7-Step System to Building a $1,000,000 Network Marketing Dynasty). Turns out he was scouring the globe looking for the best MLM trainers to contribute to his upcoming book, The Ultimate Guide to Network Marketing.

And guess who he asked to author a chapter? Yours truly. 🙂

Also sharing pages with me in the 301-page paperback are the likes of Jim Rohn, Charles E. “Tremendous” Jones and more. Plus, for some extra “WOW” factor, Joe even created a crazy bonus package of over $4,450 worth of free gifts. Now, I’m not sure if every bonus is still available or not, but it’s worth picking up your copy at:

Even if you don’t read anything else in the book, my chapter on Internet prospecting tools and tricks is worth the price of admission alone. Although I dare say my chapter and all of the other great content is worth far more than $13.57. 😉

Shocking Halloween Teleseminar Totally SOLD-OUT Again!

My annual Halloween teleseminar event this year was the best ever! Not only was it ‘sold out’ again (no surprise there), but the information was so powerful, it was downright spooky…muahahah!

Seriously though, we got load of positive testimonials and feedback and the cauldron was packed to the brim with juicy content.

I’ll probably release the .mp3 recording sometime shortly – not sure. And heck, I haven’t even gotten around to updating the website, but if you want to be first in line to get the FREE .mp3 if I do release it, be sure to head over here and get on the special list:

Super Speed Sponsoring Scripts Revealed…

My friend, and top network marketing educator (and do-er), Myron Golden, has created the first-ever AUDIO training script manual, teaching you powerful, proven scripts to use in your MLM business. From cold market, to warm market, to voice mail, to 3 way calls and more – not only does this amazing new resource teach you what to say, it also teaches you HOW to say it. With just your computer and speakers, you can actually HEAR Myron explaining and demonstrating all of his power scripts. A very clever way to use technology to educate!

Now, Myron is still a little new to the online marketing game, so he doesn’t have the prettiest website out there. But make no mistake, his content is golden. If you’ve been struggling with what to say in your business and what to get your team saying, you’ve got to head over to his site immediately and grab a copy of his latest resource:

Your Christmas Gift Arrives January 5, 2006 – Mark Your Calendars Now!

Last year’s sold-out Christmas (Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, fill-in-the-blank with the holiday you celebrate) teleseminar event was a smash hit, so I’m working on an even better one this year.

Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to book our special guest during December, but our “5 Steps to Make 2006 Your Best Year Ever” event will definitely be worth the wait. More details to come in a few weeks, but I wanted to give you a heads-up now so you can’t email me with any excuses about missing it! So here’s the date: January 5, 2006. Circle it and highlight it now, while you’re thinking about it. 🙂

Things Are Lookin’ Up: Holiday Economy Blues?

More news you won’t hear on TV…

Every year, the newspapers and TV talking heads make dire predictions about how bad the holiday shopping season will be, how bad sales will be for the nation’s retailers. They have been wrong four of the last five years. This year, no exception. In mid-October, it started in earnest – daily droning on about how worried retailers were, how high gas prices, heating bills, hurricanes, the war, etc. would surely ruin retailers’ selling season.

However, the National Retail Federation concluded a complex analysis of the months ahead and released a detailed study in September, projecting a solid 5% or better increase in retail sales 4th quarter of 2005 vs. the prior year’s 4th quarter. On October 31st , Ellen Davis of the Federation appeared on Neil Cavuto’s show on FOX News and affirmed the Federation’s projections for a robust, successful holiday retail season.

In fact, the Federation’s analysts now believe that recent meteorologists’ forecasts of milder winter temperatures in the northeast and Midwest may serve to spur an even healthier increase in retail sales this year. These positive predictions are rarely and sparingly reported – and even when they are, most commentators add their completely unqualified gloom-and-doom opinion, saying something like “…but it could be really bad if we go into a deep freeze and heating costs skyrocket.” Nuts to ‘em.
