Setting Effective Goals For The New Year!!

Well it’s that time of year again. It’s time for everyone to start setting those New Year’s resolutions right? We all do it but how many of us keep those resolutions??? The truth is not many.

In an earlier post I spoke to you about the effect Tools To Life has had on my life. It’s effected my business and personal life in a way that I can’t even put into words. However, one of the most important things it has taught me is not only the importance of setting short term goals but how to get them accomplished. Most people approach their New Year’s resolution as one huge goal but they never take the time to write down the small steps that you need to take to get to that goal. Breaking your goal down may bring you the success you wanted for the year in a matter of MONTHS!

Watch This Video Below With Tools To Life Founder Devlyn Steele:

Setting goals can be a course all in itself and can get complicated since everyone works in a different way and everyone has a different personality. What works for me may not work for you. All that being said there are some fundamentals that can work for ANYONE and will work for EVERYONE.
These 10 steps that Devlyn shared with you will work for any goal you want to set whether it’s personal or business. If you truly want to see a change in your life in 2011 now is the time to take the steps to achieve it.
1. Learn A Success System
2. Keep It Simple
3. Reduce The Goal
4. Rule Of 20
5. Post It
6. Visualize
7. Act As If
8. Law Of Effort
9. Law Of Consistency
10. Repeat All These Steps Every 30 Days
Now let’s put these steps into action. Below is a copy of The Resolution Success System. It is a great 14 page book put together by Coach Devlyn Steele who started the Tools To Life program. Partner Tools To Life, The Resolution Success book and your effort and you can be anywhere you want to be in 2011!!

Second Income Coach .. A New Take On A Network Marketing Training System

Second Income Coach is a new take on the old model of network marketing training systems that have been around for years. While most network marketing training systems center around a primary business, Second Income Coach is a training platform for any online business owner. However, there are some perks that even I didn't expect to find.

Second Income Coach has become a way of life for me and my business. I have used network marketing training systems for years but rarely have I found a true "team" in one of those systems.

This morning I was really inspired and I really felt like I needed to share this little insight with you. Each morning we have a mastermind meeting. It's a great way to start off the day. Each day we not only try to inspire each other but are also accountable to each other. We set our goals and tasks for the day and check in and make sure those are accomplished. This group has become really helpful in setting my daily goals..especially on those days when things just seem to be a little too much! I must admit that at times between the kids, house, business and activities it is very easy sometimes to just lose focus.

The Second Income Coach mastermind group focuses on so many things but here are some that I think are the most important.

* Setting Goals Effectively

* Breaking Down The Tasks You Need To Complete To Reach Those Goals.

* Inspiring Each Other

* Being Accountable To Each Other Each Day.

There are a lot of places that tell you here are the goals you need to reach to be successful..but few give you the tools...There are many people who tell you the way you NEED to think to be successful..but very few tell you how to get there. These perks are not found easily in any network marketing training system I have ever seen or used.

We spoke about this quote today in our mastermind meeting. This quote really hit home for me. I realized that most groups see each other as competition instead of allies. Second Income Coach is a network marketing training system FULL of allies.

My question to you today is:

Who will take the bus with you when the limo breaks down?

Use Safelist Marketing Effectively

If you're a marketer with a budget using safelist marketing it is among the best free techniques to start with. If you are not familiar with safelist marketing it can be pretty simple. A safelist is a system that members sign up for either no cost or sometimes an upgraded membership to send emails/ads to other members about an opportunity. Sound confusing? Let me break it down a little bit.

To utilize safelist marketing you, the marketer must first go and join the safelist. You do that so you can market your services or products to other members. In return these marketers do the same to you. Some might think it is not a terrific audience since basically they are all trying to sell one another on something. Here's where it's essential to think. You NEVER market your primary business inside a safelist...never ever. You should attract members to your primary business by building a relationship with them. You have to remember no one wants to be sold! That is the abolute bottom line! Never forget that. A safelist is an excellent place to locate other marketers or people who have the same interests as yourself. They could find some of the tools, training and/or systems which you use for you business will come in handy for theirs. You must go into safelist marketing with that in mind. You are able to market your front end products for example a funded proposal that you're using or even offer a give away for visiting your blog and placing a comment on a one of your recent posts.

When you are doing any type of marketing online including safelist marketing you need to know who your audience is. When you are using a safelist your audience will be so many people similar to you. They're marketing their business or service. You want to market something designed to benefit that target audience. Get creative and you'll see some amazing results. Does it make a bit more sense now?

If you are trying to build your own list for the first time, a safelist is a fantastic way to start. Offering free marketing tips to members is an effective way to get them in your opt in list. You then build a relationship with those members and in time you will be able to market within that list and will probably be successful at it. Do not expect to go into a safelist though and produce massive profits right away. You need to know to be aware of who you are marketing to though and utilize it successfully.

Safelist advertising is very useful particularly because it's free of charge. This can make it great for brand new marketers who do not have a marketing budget yet. Nonetheless, it is important to remember that since it is a no cost service for you to use safelist marketing can often be incredibly time consuming. To gain credits to mail other members in the safelist you may receive many emails. You might want to set aside a certain amount of time whether daily or weekly to open those emails and build up credits. You want to make sure you limit your time though. I don't believe safelist marketing can replace all other types of marketing. It can be a piece to the puzzle. Be sure you set aside a couple of hours weekly so that you can click for credits then go on to do other forms of advertising. Don't get caught up in clicking emails all day. Monitor the time you spend.

Tips For Internet Network Marketing Success

Copyright © Karen Pore, Your Partner In Online Success

There are so many different network marketing or Multi Level Marketing companies operating on the Internet today. Sometimes it can be hard to know whether or not you are the company you are looking into is a reputable company or if they are someone trying to scam others. It becomes harder and harder with all the new companies being added virtually every day. Here are some tips to make sure you are not taken advantage of.

The first thing you need to look for is when you initially talk to an Internet marketer make sure you are talking to a person. The world of email and auto responders are great. They can assist you in so many ways when building a business in the Internet world, but never discount the value of human contact. Be sure that if you are not actually called by your potential mentor that you call them. Make sure they are really there, that it’s really the person they say they are. The way that someone carries themselves on the phone with you can determine so much about how much you are willing to trust that person as your potential mentor. If that potential mentor does everything to avoid human contact chances are they are not going to be a good mentor for you.

The second thing you need to look for is ensure you mentor, or the Network Marketing company they are with has an actual physical address. Is it a P.O. Box? If it is then why? Do they have an address for the corporate headquarters? After all you may pick a great mentor but the company you are with is the company sending you your check, you really want to make sure they are an actual company. Do a little of your own research. Are they a new company? Have they been in business for some time and have an established record? Now the Internet itself can be a great tool but often misleading. Check your information with the BBB(Better Business Bureau). Make sure they have testimonials from other distributors other than your potential mentor.

The last thing you will want to look for is do some research in the Internet community. If this network marketing company has been around for some time chances are they have done business with a lot of people and have a good or a bad reputation. No matter what any mentor tells you there is no product in the world no matter how good it is that sells itself. Make sure there is a sales plan set up through this company or even through your potential mentor that you can actually see potential results through. The best way to check those results out and is check the Internet community. Chances are there are some pretty dedicated customers or distributors out there on the Internet that are singing it’s praises.

Some of these tips may seem to be common sense, but sometimes potential business owners get so excited and about a new business venture and another source of potential income and simply forget some of the common sense things that we already know. Do your homework and make sure you find the right Network Marketing or Multi Level Marketing company for you.

10 Great Ways To Jumpstart Your Sales.

1. Find a strategic business partner.

Look for partner or mentor that has not only achieved success,
but achieved it in a manner you wish to achieve it yourself. For
example if someone created a residual income off of talking to
strangers and giving them a business card and that's not what
fits your personality and you can't see yourself doing that they
are probably not a good partner for you. Find what fits your
personality.


2. Brand your name and business. You can easily
do this by just writing articles and submitting them
to e-zines or web sites for republishing.

3. Remember to take a little time out of your day
or week to brainstorm. New ideas are usually the
difference between success and failure.

4. Take risks to improve your business. Sometimes
businesses don't want to advertise unless it's free,
sometimes you have to spend money to get results.

5. Always market using a funded proposal. Offer a
front end sale and then later introduce your prospect
to your business. This "qualifies" the person for spending
your time with them. Time is valuable. If you get on the
phone with every person who comes to your website and
they are not of the same mindset as you, you are wasting
your time and their time.

6. Include emotional words in your advertisements.
Use ones like love, security, relief, freedom, happy,
satisfaction, fun, etc.

7. Have an auto responder (and your own capture page)
Systems will come and go but you shouldn't have to leave
your prospects when you leave a system. Without an
autoresponder you will die a fast death in Internet
marketing. The money IS in the list. It's essential.

8. Model other successful business or people. I'm
not saying out right copy them, but practice some
of the same habits that have made them succeed.

9. Ask people online to review your web site. You
can use the comments you get to improve your web
site or you may turn the reviewer into a customer.

10. Never stop learning. When it comes to Internet
marketing you must never think you have "mastered"
it. You must always continue to learn. Getting prospects
to your business is the only way to continue to prosper.



I will be expanding on these techniques in the next couple of weeks. Tip to help you out depending on your marketing level look at these items and see what you are doing and what you aren't doing. Then decide what you need to learn first. To give you a hint the first thing you need to start with is a funded proposal. It could be the most important thing on this list.
