HOW TO MAKE MONEY ONLINE
I get a lot of questions about whether or not to try and build a Shaklee organization online — and how to do it. My first reply is that I’ve never seen it done successfully. I have seen people sponsored into Shaklee, and I have seen people sell a few products through lead generation … but I have yet to see all that translate into building an organization. More »
“IF I FAIL MORE THAN YOU DO, I WIN!
A great life and business lesson from the brilliant Seth Godin.
WHAT YOUR CUSTOMERS THINK

WHAT WE CAN LEARN FROM THIS RESEARCH
1) The Price of the product matters, but only if our prospects don’t have a unique experience. Our job is to make sure they do.
2) The Overall Experience is key. Which means, how we treat our customers in the process matters more than we know. Sending them off to direct order heaven with nary a follow up contact is the single biggest mistake we make.
3) Previous experience with us, and with our product, is the key. If the experience isn’t good to great … they won’t come back. Can you blame them?
Do you know what the “right” problem is?
Got this email this morning from the guru of marketing guru’s — Dan Kennedy.
“Over and over throughout my 35 years in business, the lack of quality THINKING has led to a Hell’s half-acre of disasters and disappointments.
And it’s not only in thinking through the solutions to the gnarly problems your business faces…
more often than not, it’s the painful reality that you’re working your buttsky off to solve the WRONG problem!”
Magic Jack, a Laptop, China, India, and Global Opportunity!
Master Coordinator Bob Ferguson decided (and that’s the key) that he wanted to increase his overall OGV.
He understands that to make that happen, people in his organization need to increase their volume. Pretty simple mathematical principle. More »
Dates, Not Singles Bars
The value of a Lifetime Customer and the high cost of one-shot selling.
I was shocked by a conversation I had last week with one our leaders who attended the convention in Atlantis.
He told me about a chat he had with a lady from another organization that said to him…
“I really don’t care about the product. I care about the money. The product really doesn’t matter all that much.”
I asked if she was kidding. He said, “No.” More »
How Mailbird Thrives in Recession
In 2002, it was predicted that by 2010 direct mail would “almost be a half-remembered relic.”
Today, a UK company, Mailbird — a relatively small firm that does nothing but send out direct mail for clients — has just had a record year.
In Drayton Bird’s interview with Coral Russell, who founded Mailbird, she explains why this is … More »
Are You Prepared for Success?

Your success in Shaklee is virtually guaranteed… if you believe in the law of averages, stay consistent, and continue to get better through preparation.
Apollo astronauts practiced every second of their mission, even planting the flag (above), many times, indoors, outdoors, in space suits, underwater, in planes, in centrifuges, in pools, in the ocean and anywhere else NASA saw fit. They were prepared for every contingency and trained for water planned landings as well as desert and jungle survival in case their capsule missed the ocean and hit land. They learned geology, how to withstand g-forces, maneuver in low- and zero-gravity conditions, and how to drive electric rovers and land the lunar module.
Naive or Professional
WOW!
You all know that I am a huge Seth Godin fan… he’s a genius!
This one really got to me… because I’ve been trying to think of a way to say this that would not offend.
No group of people in the world needs this message more than those of us in network marketing — and that means all of us. More »
Masters LouAnne and Adrian Opitz … How They Do It.
When someone registers a new Shaklee Member, Distributor or Gold Ambassador… here’s what we do first to get them moving in the right direction.
We ‘follow up’ by getting in their homes as fast as possible, telling them:

• You invite family, friends or neighbors to your home…

We ask new Distributors to select the dates on their calendars when we can be there to present a Shaklee Product Opportunity Meeting (SPOM).[...] More »
