Who? What?

2008-12-10T03:15:00.001-05:00

Hi Team,

Here is some thoughtful, insightful strategy from Jeff.

For those of you learning how to write blogs, and articles, and emails (things to be viewed online), notice how Jeff put together this short and sweet article.

1. He used LOTS of white space.

2. He separated and made BOLD his topic headings.

3. SHORT & SWEET is IN these days.

MISTAKES IN JEFF'S EMAIL:

1. WHO is Jeff? He doesn't tell us anything about himself, or his mission.

2. WHAT is his website? Don't know....

3. WHAT is his last name (how can we google him to find out if he hides his name?

4. HOW contact the mysterious Jeff?

Be sure to give YOUR readers and customers info on HOW to find and contact you.... ie INCLUDE in your SIG FILE your

1. FULL NAME (google-able --- google your OWN name to see what's out there.)

2. TELEPHONE - or two - or three.

3. EMAIL

4. WEBSITE.

Remember, someone may FORWARD your email, so your email should include ALL of the above.

Unless you want to hide in a closet.

But then, you probably wouldn't want to be attracting business, either - if you are hiding in the closet.

Successfully,

Pat

To make any sale you must answer three key questions for your
customer. Answer all three satisfactorily and you have a sale. Fall
short on any of them and you may never see that customer
again. Do you have answers to these questions ready for your
customers?
1) Why should I buy this product or service?
Say a person needs to put a hole in their wall to hang a picture. He
goes to the store and comes home with a drill. He just bought a
drill, right?
Wrong!
Actually, he just bought a hole, or, more specifically, something he
concluded would make the hole he needed to solve his problem.
In the same way, your customers are not coming
to you to buy your product. They're trying to find a solution
to a problem.
Have you figured out what problems they're trying to solve? Have
you focused your sales copy on the solutions your
products can give them rather than on the products themselves?
If you have, you've succeeded at question 1.
2) Why should I buy this product or service from you?
You're not the only one who has a potential solution to your
customers' problem. It's not enough to convince them that
your product is the solution if they just buy that
same product somewhere else.
What makes you uniquely positioned to give them the
the best and easiest solution to their problem? Businesses that
experience flat sales usually haven't answered this question
adequately for their customers.
Just putting a bunch of products out there and waiting for
people to buy does not work!
You need to identify what makes your offering
superior to the solutions that anyone else can give them if you
want them to come to you for the sale.
Can you deliver it faster? Can you remove the typical hassle they'd
deal with somewhere else? Do you offer superior guarantees that
eliminate your customers' risk moreso than they could find
elsewhere?
The possibilities you can find are endless, but you need to settle on
something that makes you the best person to come to
or they'll just go to someone who has figured out an answer to
that second question.
Once you've settled on what makes you the ideal
person to solve their problem, make sure you let them
know! The best service in the world is worthless unless
they know up front what all you're giving them. Only then have
you successfully answered question 2.
3) Why should I buy your product or service now?
People procrastinate. They subconsciously worry that there might
be something better out there that they'll miss out on, or that
they'll find something else they'd rather use that money on
tomorrow.
If you don't give them a reason not to delay, most of
them will. And who knows whose site or auction they'll be on
when they finally decide to carry through on solving their
problem?
Find something that makes it worth their while to buy
right now. Whether you offer them a limited time
discount or a special bonus or a discontinued product - you want
to turn their fear that by buying now they might miss out on a
better solution later into a fear that they'll miss out on the
absolutely perfect solution if they don't buy from
you now.
So, can you successfully answer those three key questions? If not,
figure out your answers. Because, when you come right down to it,
everything in selling depends on how well you answer them.

A Few Key Words, Phrases, & Ideas From Tonight's Training:

Watch TV ads to see how to be efficient in your speech....

"Most People do network marketing everyday... but they just don't get paid for it."
Subconscious thinks: Most people... that must mean I do it... but I don't get paid for it....what question would cross your prospects mind: How do I get paid for it?

Most people on the call tonight... that's probably me.....

Through out your conversation, sprinkle in most people

"IMAGINE THIS" turns on the movie projector in their mind.

DON'T DO "DISEASE MARKETING"....

2008-09-30T22:42:00.001-04:00

Just a reminder ... is not a place to ask
medical questions or request professional medical advice.

99.9% of us here are not doctors. If any of us were, s/he would
certainly not provide advice in a forum like this, and certainly not
without seeing his/her patient personally. Think of the consequences.

Product testimonials like treating a bee sting with Sunjing or taking
Tramane for a scratchy throat are quite different from asking which
Vitamark products are good for Alzheimer's Disease or Prostate Cancer.

We can all provide stories about what our products have done for us
(and even there we have to be careful!), but none of us can provide an
opinion about what is good for others, especially if the condition is
serious.

We have to be extremely careful about what we say in public about our
products. Many companies have landed in court over product claims
made by distributors.

As Vitamark reps, our ultimate authority is Jana at questions@vitamark.com

In every recommendation that Jana sends out, she provides the
disclaimer that our products do not prevent, diagnose, treat or cure
any disease or condition.

Vitamark Corporate is very aware of what we can and cannot say when
presenting our products to each other and to the public.

It would be wise to say no more than what is provided by Vitamark on our websites. Much research and much thought has gone into that information.

Do not jeopardize your own business, the future of Vitamark, and most
importantly, the health of our friends and family and customers, by making claims or statements that have not been approved by Vitamark.

Importance of Cleansing

2008-09-11T23:07:00.002-04:00

Cleansing Products Include:
LimuPlus juice
VitaFiber
VitaMarin - liver
SuperVigest
Probiotic

Sub: "WHY CLEANSE?" Article

Why Should I Cleanse?

Millions of us suffer from disease, sickness and pain because we simply don't know this truth about our own health: our bodies are not properly eliminating poisons and environmental toxins. The colon's job is to hold waste before it is evacuated from the body and to reabsorb water from the waste. Years of poor eating habits, low-fiber diets, sedentary living and other lifestyle choices can slow the digestive processes. If waste sits in the colon too long, toxins build up there and are eventually absorbed back into the body.

A toxic colon eventually leads to a toxic liver, which pollutes the tissues and the bloodstream, making a person very sick.

Do You Have Any of These Symptoms?

Aches & Pain
Allergies - Sinus
Anemia
Arthritis - Rheumatism
Body Odor - Bad Breath
Brittle Nails & Hair
Blood Pressure (Hi or Lo)
Can't Concentrate - Memory Loss
Circulation Problems
Cold Hands or Feet
Depression
Fatigue - Exhaustion
Fibroids - Endometriosis
Gas - Constipation
Headaches
Hot Flashes - Menopause
Infertility
Insomnia
Irritability
Low Sex Drive
Menstrual Irregularities
Nausea
Nervousness
Overweight - Obesity
Pot Belly
Swelling Legs & Feet
Skin Problems

These are some of the many types of problems that toxicity in the body can cause. There are many poisons which can be found in a toxic colon and in many cases, these toxins can seep out of the colon and poison the rest of the body through the bloodstream which nourishes all organs.

Here's a list of some poisons found in a toxic colon:

Phenol, Cadaverin, Agamatine, Indol, Sulphurretted Hydrogen, Cresol, Butyric Acid, Botulin, Putrescin, Urrobilin, Histidine, Ammonia, Muscarine, Methylmercaptan, Indican, Methygandinine, Idoethylamine, Sulpherroglobine, Ptomarropine, Pentamethy Lendiamine, Neurin, Sepsin

Poisons from the colon can:

* Weaken and stress the heart
* Go to the skin and cause blemishes, paleness, psoriasis, liver spots,
wrinkles
* Irritate the lungs and cause foul breath
* Go to the brain and disturb mental function
* Go to the joints and cause pain and stiffness
* Go to the muscles and cause weakness and terrible fatigue
* Rob you of your youth and ruin your health

Reasons to keep the colon clean:

* Prevent constipation and disease of the colon
* Eliminates waste such as fatty tissue, cholesterol, cellulite, toxins,
mucus, hardened fecal matter, harmful drug residue
* Controls your weight
* Increases your energy level
* For the glow of health inside and out that shows with clear skin, bright eyes, and shiny hair

Our Polluted Environment

We live in an environment of polluted air, water and soil; a surrounding full of chemicals, preservatives, pesticides, additives and other potential toxins. Ideally these toxins are processed by the liver, dumped into the large intestine (or colon) and eliminated from the body. But when this process malfunctions, serious problems arise that no simple laxative can cure.

Autointoxication

Autointoxication is defined as a state of being poisoned by toxic substances produced within the body. So, the second reason for concern about colon health involves autointoxication, or self-poisoning. When the digestive system doesn't work properly, autointoxication may set in. This happens when food begins to break down without being eliminated. Proteins putrefy and rot,
carbohydrates ferment, and oils and fats turn rancid. The body becomes poisoned from its own waste.

Doctors Promote Cleansing

"If the colon is not working properly, toxins must exit the body through
other routes: the kidneys, the skin, the breath. Many of these patients have bad halitosis, body odor, etc. When a person becomes ill from colon disease, he or she may develop a variety of symptoms, including headaches, muscle aches, fatigue, autoimmune diseases like lupus or rheumatoid arthritis, cancer or cardiovascular diseases."

William L. Cowden, M.D., Internist, Classical specialist in Internal Medicine and Cardiology

"I like to think of colon cleanses as whole-body cleanses. Cleansing the colon helps virtually every tissue and cell in the human body. Laxative herbs are important, and they are the major component of many cleanses. Many cleanses contain too much of strong laxative herbs, which results in cramps. Consequently, people won't use the cleanse. I think it's better to use a combination of well-proven herbs that can balance each other and provide a more desirable product." Alvin B. Segelman, Ph.D., CNS, Pharmacologist

"The body is designed to move the bowels every time we eat. It's called the gastro-colic reflex. After we eat, the stomach gets the signal that it's distended, and it sends a nervous energy to our colon telling it to make room. But in western civilization we live on tight schedules. And it's a little inconvenient to get a call of nature right after lunch when you're supposed to be back at work. So we have taught our bodies not to do that. When food becomes backed up in the colon, serious problems can develop."
Marvin D. Berman, Gastrointerologist, former Assistant Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School

MP3 File

CALL NOTES from Lynn Rothfuss:

Good evening and welcome to the Pat Crosby Leadership Hour this Sunday the 7th of September 2008.

This is Lynn Rothfuss your Host from New Jersey.

Before we begin I want to say a special hello to Diamond Ruth Bradford. Ruth is a faithful listener.

While at work every Monday morning, Ruth listeners with a head set as she does her work at the post office.

How faithful is that? That's pretty faithful! While at convention Ruth approached me and said how much she enjoys our leadership hour and the training we provide.

It feels great to hear first hand that others are being serviced by our leadership. Thank you Ruth for sharing!

How proud I am Ruth,that you and your husband reached Diamond Level.

While I'm on the subject of convention, let me express a few thoughts of what I got out of convention.

I went for 3 reasons. #1 reason, to re-sponsor myself. #2 reason to be with my down line and set an example. The bonding that continues is unexplainable. #3 reason was to be with Michael and Linda Dlouhy and the rest of Success Team Builders, who by the way made up 80% of convention attendees. That should give some indication of the team Michael has built.

I walked away more charged than ever before. A few of the highlights were the New Freedom Magazine. WOW, what a tool to help explain your business! It's like having a small flip chart

to show step by step in plain English what Vitamark and Network Marketing is all about.

Each one received a copy. You can now order the magazines on auto ship. Even though leaders who are in the book, personally autographed my copy, I choose to hand it to a qualified prospect, a ticket agent, at Continental Airlines counter.This was a better decision, than hang on to the magazine for the personal autographs.

Michael the genius and strategist that he is, bought all 8,000 copies and rode the load home with him back to Florida for the team to purchase. Michael used the same carrier to bring the Red Mustang to convention. By the way, the winner was our own lovable, coach and mentor, a favorite to many, Sarah Thompson. You might want to drop Sarah a note, email, or call to congratulate her.

Also at convention was a surprise new mini package of Limu Plus Travel size bottles. 8 bottles in a 4 ounce plastic container. It's so wonderful Vitamark listens to our needs. I know this will be a big hit to share as samples with others as well as a travel pack when on the the go. It will be easier to store in baggage instead of being without Limu. The big bottle was not always easy to carry when traveling especially since 911 restrictions.

Another nice surprise was a smaller packaging for Crave. It's a folded card board holding 10 packets of Crave. You can now share or sell 10 packets at a time instead of whole box of 50. This makes it easy and convenient.

On my way home I sat next to a junior high school student, Kyle, on his way back to private school in the East. I noticed a can of energy drink in his hand. Yes you know the drill, I got his information and permission to send a 10 pack of Crave Tuesday morning. I'm looking forward to speaking with Kyle and his pals this coming week to hear their reaction. I also slipped him a chocolate chip cookie during plane flight, and another cookie into package sent. Kyle enjoyed cookie and asked the cost. He thought that was reasonable. Will be interesting to hear their feedback.

It was most gratifying to see so many cross the stage at a new pin level. My was I proud of my friends! On a personal note, I wasn't going to cross the stage myself, because I wasn't happy with my own pin level.At the last moment after being with so many winners, I decided that was not a leadership mindset. So I crossed the stage a 2 star platinum. Next year it will be Diamond! "If it's going to be, it's up to me!"

We heard some wonderful speakers all weekend long. Hope Vitamark records all speeches next year so many more can listen to MP3 files at their leisure.

Vitamark gave an incentive a month before convention to help people get to Texas. Sponsor so many Platinum Pluses and your room was paid for. Knowing Vitamark, always raising the bar, they will probably do something to help us push up and get to convention again next year. That would not surprise me!

I look forward to meeting more of you at convention next year. You just have to decide that's where you want to be.

OK, now on with tonight's special guest, my friend, one of my favorite leaders. This man is respected as a trainer, patient, kind, and understanding. It's always a privilege to introduce Rick Berry from Pennsylvania

Rick I look forward to what you will share with our leaders, as you did with me the other day. You were so excited to speak about the # 1 top secret top producers do.

Rick is getting married shortly to Betty Shine. Any date yet?

Rick thank you for taking time away from your wonderful family to join us this evening. I appreciate you!

Thank you to all our listeners and sound engineers. This is Lynn Rothfuss, have a blessed week, until we meet again be safe and be happy. Light some one else's world and give them your smile.

Today's Top Email

Five (5) lessons about the way we treat people.

1 - First Important Lesson - Cleaning Lady.

During my second month of college, our professor
gave us a pop quiz. I was a conscientious student
and had breezed through the questions until I read
the last one:

"What is the first name of the woman who cleans the school?"
Surely this was some kind of joke. I had seen the
cleaning woman several times. She was tall,
dark-haired and in her 50's, but how would I know her name?

I handed in my paper, leaving the last question
blank. Just before class ended, one student asked if
the last question would count toward our quiz grade.

"Absolutely, " said the professor. "In your careers,
you will meet many people. All are significant They
deserve your attention and care, even if all you do
is smile and say "hello."

I've never forgotten that lesson. I also learned her
name was Dorothy.

2. - Second Important Lesson - Pickup in the Rain

One night, at 11:30 p.m., an older African American
woman was standing on the side of an Alabama highway
trying to endure a lashing rain storm. Her car had
broken down and she desperately needed a ride.
Soaking wet, she decided to flag down the next car.
A young white man stopped to help her, generally
unheard of in those conflict-filled 1960's. The man
took her to safety, helped her get assistance and
put her into a taxicab.

She seemed to be in a big hurry, but wrote down his
address and thanked him. Seven days went by and a
knock came on the man's door. To his surprise, a
giant console color TV was delivered to his home. A
special note was attached.

It read:
"Thank you so much for assisting me on the highway
the other night. The rain drenched not only my
clothes, but also my spirits. Then you came along.
Because of you, I was able to make it to my dying
husband's bedside just before he passed away... God
bless you for helping me and unselfishly serving
others."

Sincerely,
Mrs Nat King Cole.

3 - Third Important Lesson - Always remember those
who serve.

In the days when an ice cream sundae cost much less,
a 10-year-old boy entered a hotel coffee shop and
sat at a table. A waitress put a glass of water in
front of him.

"How much is an ice cream sundae?" he asked.
"Fifty cents," replied the waitress.

The little boy pulled his hand out of his pocket and
studied the coins in it.

"Well, how much is a plain dish of ice cream?" he inquired.

By now more people were waiting for a table and the
waitress was growing impatient.

"Thirty-five cents," she brusquely replied.

The little boy again counted his coins.

"I'll have the plain ice cream," he said.

The waitress brought the ice cream, put the bill on
the table and walked away The boy finished the ice
cream, paid the cashier and left. When the waitress
came back, she began to cry as she wiped down the
table. There, placed neatly beside the empty dish,
were two nickels and five pennies..

You see, he couldn't have the sundae, because he had
to have enough left to leave her a tip.

4 - Fourth Important Lesson. - The obstacle in Our Path.

In ancient times, a King had a boulder placed on a
roadway. Then he hid himself and watched to see if
anyone would remove the huge rock. Some of the
king's wealthiest merchants and courtiers came by
and simply walked around it. Many loudly blamed the
King for not keeping the roads clear, but none did
anything about getting the stone out of the way.

Then a peasant came along carrying a load of
vegetables. Upon approaching the boulder, the
peasant laid down his burden and tried to move the
stone to the side of the road. After much pushing
and straining, he finally succeeded. After the
peasant picked up his load of vegetables, he noticed
a purse lying in the road where the boulder ha d
been. The purse contained many gold coins and a note
from the King indicating that the gold was for the
person who removed the boulder from the roadway. The
peasant learned what many of us never understand!

Every obstacle presents an opportunity to improve
our condition.

5 - Fifth Important Lesson - Giving When it Counts...

Many years ago, when I worked as a volunteer at a
hospital, I got to know a little girl named Liz who
was suffering from a rare & serious disease. Her only
chance of recovery appeared to be a blood
transfusion from her 5-year old brother, who had
miraculously survived the same disease and had
developed the antibodies needed to com bat the
illness. The doctor explained the situation to her
little brother, and asked the little boy if he would
be willing to give his blood to his sister.

I saw him hesitate for only a moment before taking a
deep breath and saying, "Yes I'll do it if it will save
her." As the transfusion progressed, he lay in bed
next to his sister and smiled, as we all did, seeing
the color returning to her cheek. Then his face
grew pale and his smile faded.

He looked up at the doctor and asked with a
trembling voice, "Will I start to die right away".

Being young, the little boy had misunderstood the
doctor; he thought he was going to have to give his
sister all of his blood in order to save her.

Call Notes from Lynn Rothfuss:

Good evening and welcome to the Pat Crosby Leadership Hour, August 17th, 2008. Where we celebrate your Greatness.

This is your co-host Lynn Rothfuss, coming to you, live from New Jersey.

You can find us on the web at http://leadership forumtraining.blogspot.com

Pat Crosby is well known and respected in the health and wellness industry and a friend to many.

Pat has been busy adding the finishing touches to her 2 books, one on "Forgiveness" and "Little Red Riding Hood and The Big Bad MLM Wolves".

I was among the first of several people to read her draft, and I'm here to tell you, it's an amazing book! Pat has this natural ability of writing. You can relate and feel her passion, creativity, and dedication in every line that Pat writes. Pat continues to set an industry standard in every thing she does!

Bob Burg, co-author of "The Go Giver", read Pat's draft, and proclaims it a winner! To purchase this amazing book you can email Pat, at patcrosby@gmail.com.

Christmas is just around the corner, birthdays and anniversary's are great opportunities to gift this book that says, I Love You, again and again each time someone reads it. This makes a perfect gift!

I'm hoping to convince Pat to read the forgiveness book on a future call. I know once you read it, you will want to attend one of Pat's workshops on Forgiveness.

My friends, we are in a people business and when more than one person is gatheres, there is a great need to learn about true forgiveness and thankfulness.

One thing I can guarantee you, because I have personally experienced Pat's healing retreats. You walk away a better person and on your way to healing emotional clutter of which we all have!

Any one who is ready to move to the next level of healing and dissolving layers of emotional clutter owe it to themselves to email Pat and ask for her next workshop. Again patcrosby@gmail.com.

I'd like to share with you tonight one of my favorite books, "Skill With People" by LesGiblin. It's a fantastic little book and has been a training book for decades. The book is simple, concise, powerful and full of amazing insights. His book is easy to read and refer to over time when Leadership decisions are required. Since all of us are emerging Leaders, I know this book will be of high interest to you, because it's on Relationship Training.

I first bought this book when I went into teaching and began my network marketing business. The book has proven valuable beyond measure. Les Giblin's common sense approach and easy to read pages make it one of my most referred books in my collection.

Tonight I'm going to review these several points of interest. There will be 5 sections.

I will discuss insight # 1,2, and 3

Point number 4, understanding people and human nature.

Number 5, how to skillfully talk to people.

The way I will approach this *7 to un mute yourself to comment or ask a question after each section.

Let's begin.

FAQ's

1. How do you approach a small mom and pops store to get them to help you promote and sell your products.
I don't. I offer to HELP THEM increase their business and create more happy customers.

2. What is the most popular product you retail?
LimuPlus

3 how do you market Limu plus to a small independent holistic store? Try it - on consignment. Usually results in a few - but regular ongoing sales. May pick up a rep down the line... but NEVER push recruiting on ANYBODY... or you will get a bad rap.

4. What is the max stores can a person owns to be consider small and not commercial?

Do they use bar codes or not. CHAINS use bar codes. Any store IS commercial by definition.

5 Do you recruit store owners or do you give them a percentage of the commissions made? Never.

6 How do you convert a customer already doing a large volume into a affiliate? I don't... if it's not broken, don't fix it. You will DRIVE a good customer AWAY starting the recruiting pitch.

7. Do you give customers info to prospect them or do you wait for them to ask you about joining Your company?
Apples & Oranges. LEAVE 'EM ALONE. Get OVER RECRUITING FEVER... and just serve your customers.

8. What would be the best what to explain what we do if ask by a vendor?
Supply high quality products at minimal cost - due to our streamlined overhead model.

Hi Team,

Do you know what this chart indicates? It is a correspondence I had with David Bertrand recently.

YOUR BONUS LEVEL	Platinum
RETAILERS BONUS	12.00
GOLD BONUS	20.50
PLATINUM BONUS	73.00

David Bertrand

Pat:

Yes, this is not a problem. It can be shown. This is for team members...it is training. It is not an inducement to get new members....so it's fine.

OK! TONIGHT, The GREENS are going to have a field day explaining the nitty gritty of how to be gold.

Join Pat Crosby & co-host Rick Berry for a stimulating discussion and Q & A about going GOLD and higher.

Meet new teams Martine & Danielle.
GREEN Danielle will also explain going GOLD from the newbies' point of view.

Skeeter is our MAIN MAN at corporate in Houston. Here is his GREEN answer to some Green Questions Martine submitted earlier.

Skeeter Trahan

Hi Pat,

MAINTAINING BONUS QUALIFICATION

there are two ways to maintain bonus qualification. in order to earn a

bonus check each week, an affiliate must do one of the following: (1)

generate a minimum of 50 Bp on autoship within the last four week

period (this includes the current week and the previous three), or (2)

generate 100 Bp during the current qualification week. if an affiliate

fails to do one of these two things, he or she will not earn a check for

That's correct...You'll qualify silver...if you have a 50bp AUTOSHIP order over the 4 week period...you'll qualify gold if you have a 100bp during the current business week...and no...it doesn't have to be an autoship order...if you're wanting to qualify silver...it DOES have to be generated by an autoship order...of 50bp...

so...you'll qualify silver...if you have 50bp Autoship order over the 4 week period...you'll qualify gold...if you have a 100bp Autoship order over the 4 week period...

if you're NOT on Autoship...and you want to earn a check on volume generated that commissions week...you better place a 100bp order...so you'll get paid.

Now...answering the platinum question...they are correct...Autoship is not required...as long as those 2 qualifications are met.

I wouldn't go without at least a 100bp autoship order every 4 weeks though...because if you do...and you enroll a fast start or fast start plus...you will NOT get paid fast start commissions...no matter how much volume you have in any given week...Fast start commissions are tied to Autoship...

Please let us know if you need any further assistance.

Hi Skeeter,

We are preparing to do a training on gold this Sunday.... could you comment on Martine's questions, por favor.

Thank you.

Pat

From: Martine

Hi Pat,

As we discussed, here are some of the questions that have come up for me in trying to understand the compensation plan.

Under the Silver Qualification it states … "To qualify for Silver Affiliate bonuses, an affiliate must generate at least 50 GBP via AutoShip orders during the previous four weeks."

But under the Gold Qualification no mention is made of Autoship … "To qualify for Gold Affiliate bonuses, an affiliate must generate at least 100 GBP / QP during the previous four weeks." Is it to be assumed that the Autoship commitment also applies even though not specifically stated or does it not apply?

For the Platinum Qualification the requirement is … "To qualify for the Platinum Generation Bonus, you must:

1. Be an Affiliate who has accumulated at least 200 GBP / QP during the previous four weeks.

2. During the bonus week, the combined total of your GBP / QP and the GBP / QP of your first level Affiliates must be at least 300 points.

Again Autoship is not specifically mentioned. Is the "bonus week" the fourth week of the four weeks mentioned in requirement #1?

Those are the questions for now, but I'm sure more will come up along the way.

Thank you for your help.

Blessings,

Martine

~~~~~~~~~~~~

A Poem by Henry Van Dyke read by Lynn Rothfuss in Celebration of Kenn Huggins Passing.

Lynn changed only one word by adding Ken's name in last sentence of poem.

"A Mile With Me"

O who will walk a mile with me

Along life's merry way?

A comrade blithe and full of glee,

Who dares to laugh out loud and free,

And let his fancy play,

Like a happy child, through the flowers gay

That fill the field and fringe the way

Where he walks a mile with me.

And who will walk a mile with me

Along life's weary way?

A friend whose heart has eyes to see

The stars shine out o'er the darkening lea,

And the quiet rest at the end o' the day,

A friend who knows, and dares to say,

The brave, sweet words that cheer the way

Where he walks a mile with me.

With such a comrade, such a friend,

I fain would walk till journey's end,

Through summer sunshine, winter rain,

And then?- Farewell, Ken we shall meet again!

~~~~~~~~~~

Hello, hope your day is going fantastic!

Thought you might enjoy this video of IZ,singer Pat played on last nights call, for celebration of Ken's passing.

The energy from his voice,tone,vibration could not be fully experienced and enjoyed through MFF's phone quality.

IZ - Over the Rainbow / What a Wonderful World

A tribute to Bruddah IZ - Israel Kamakawiwo'ole, a fravorite son of Hawaii whose music brought joy to millions the world over. Featuring a medley of "Over The Rainbow" and "What a Wonderful World." IZ served as a goodwill ambassador for the native people of Hawaii and will remain in our hearts forever. Aloha and Mahalo!

Listener Brenda Beard (Chicago) emails:

Wow Pat, thanks for responding so quickly!

Yes, I have done a Master Cleanse twice in the last 5 years once for 5 days and once for 9 days.

I was just feeling low energy and knew it was time for a cleanse. Not just for physical reasons but to get in touch with my inner self, I think I'm more blue than yellow and I'm ready to get focused on my vita mark business.

My mother passed on from this earth last spring. She and my dad lived right across the street from me. She was a true yellow as perfect as a human could be. Your Sunday night tribute to Ken Huggins and Ken's message he sent back to earth helped me realize how peaceful she is now.

I was so shocked when I heard about Ken. Rick Berry's recordings of Ken's lessons were great! We can all learn so much from Ken. He would not have been so prepared for his passing on if he had not been introduced to MFF. It makes me realize what a wonderful opportunity we had with MFF to help other with personal growth!

Callers Response to Ken Huggins Crossing

2008-07-20T23:13:00.002-04:00

Bernard Tritz - who had a NDE (near death experience) himself - shares this message he received from Ken Huggins after Ken totally crossed ver.

This message was read at Ken's memorial service today.

My dear dear friends

I have gone to a new life. I know you are missing me terribly, be comforted in the thought that one day we will all be together again enjoying a new life. A life full of everything we could not experience before and all that we wished for is now reality. Some of you understand perfectly well what I am talking about. During our life together we spoke of future and possibilities. We dreamed together of the perfect place and the perfect life. Well it’s real for me now. Be certain that I am with you although you can’t hear me or see me, I am in the next room near by. We will work together but on a different plane this time.

Please be not sadden, I am gone from sight but in spirit I am with you. I am fully totally and completely happy. I am fulfilled and one day you will be to. Remember to always love to the maximum. Enjoy life to the fullest. Serve like you never served before. Love like you never loved before. Every breath you take can be the last one make it count. Every person you encounter is a child of God thus very precious. Many are trust into you care for a time, treat them well. Be good to each other your next life depend on it.

If tears must fall let them be tears of joy, have no regrets our life together was fulfilled.

I am off to my next assignment, some things we have no control over. Prepare for it the best you can, keep in mind everyone of you will depart from this life. It is a great experience. I love all of you beyond your understanding. I am full now. I am complete now.

We will be together again

Love

Ken

Through Bernard Tritz

Thank you, Bernard :)

2008-07-20T19:12:00.008-04:00

When A Team Member Passes Over - In Loving Memory of our Dear Friend & Volunteer Mentor, Ken Huggins.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hello Friends,

This week, one of our most beloved volunteer mentors crossed the line - The BIG Line. Ken Huggins was feeling fine, just threw up something, and an hour and a half later was on the other side of the great divide.

Tonight, we will be sharing stories of remembrance of Ken. For those of you new to our weekly Sunday night live trainings, Ken - along with Dwight Baker - took care of our sound engineering behind the scenes.

And sometimes, we were totally blessed to have Ken Huggins speak up - too - with his newly evolving wisdom and caring as he has been learning and growing as one of our volunteer mentors.

Already we miss Ken's gentle and loving presence. Yet our shock is tempered by knowing he has gone into a lighter realm.

Please join us LIVE tonight for a GENERIC discussion of how we - as leaders and team members - respond when one of our very own crosses over.

Here is the call info.

The Pat Crosby Leadership Hour Info

Audio archives & training notes are also at
http://ThePatCrosbyLeadershipHour.blogspot.com

One of our most esteemed volunteer mentors, who you hear every Saturday night on our weekly core training, Richard Dennis, shared his beautiful remembrance of how the team rallied and supported Richard and his wife Cheryl and other family members when their dear son Garth passed over last year.

Here is Richard's contribution to our conversation - via email

Our son Garth passed on June 10th, 2007.

The outpouring of support from Success Team Builders was a great
comfort to us. We had dozens and dozens and dozens of email and
letters. Some had made photos of Garth from a webpage to pay tribute
to him. Many shared their own pain and understanding.

It was really tough for us and, to be honest, it still is. I think of
him every day. I cry for our loss at some time almost every day.

It greatly touched us to have the support of those who knew Garth and
those who didn't, and especially to feel the empathy from so many in
our group.

And, of course, we had no insurance to cover Garth's funeral expenses.
You and others were very kind to help us with that expense.

It was all a great comfort to us. Cheryl & I are so grateful to
everyone in Success Team Builders.

And we're greatly saddened to now lose Ken Huggins. He had a huge
heart, and a great sense of humor. He was a Green's Green. I'll miss
him a lot.

Thanks, Pat.

Richard Dennis

Well, Team,

* Do you ignore those early little warning signs - you know, the ones you shove aside as not nice?
* Were you programmed to always see the best in people?
* Do you think it is "not nice" to talk about ugly things people do?
* Have you lost money - lots or little - getting sweet-talked into something?
* Do you brush off your having been taken advantage of with comments such as "Oh well, it wasn't THAT much!"
* Do you buy excuses: "Oh He/She couldn't help it."
* Do you think it is important to be "LIKED"?
* Do you WANT/NEED to BELIEVE in the good things people tell you? About anything?

It is time for a happy Sunday night call, again. This time, we have a REALLY happy topic: Deceit, Lies, Manipulation & Other (Happy) Info: Snakes In Suits

The HAPPINESS comes in AFTER you learn how manipulators manipulate. How you can be SPARED the deep pain - financial, emotional and otherwise - of being worked over by the con-men and con-women of this planet.

Tune into this enlightening conversation. You will hear stories that will make your hair curl - without little pink rollers!

But you will be more aware of how to look underneath the face value of things to the dark underbelly.

You can stick you head in the sand if you want to, but that is very expensive in the longer run.

We would LOVE to hear YOUR favorite stories of getting taken over - so we can all learn to spot it, and see it coming, and avoid it - or head it off at the pass.

Join Pat Crosby & Rick Berry in this informative and shocking conversation of discovery.

This will be a GENERIC conversation. NO COMPANIES will be mentioned...anywhere on the call.

To YOUR Success,

Pat Crosby

You can learn how this process works in MLM by reading

When Psychopaths Go To Work
Paul Babiak, Ph.d. & Robert D. Hare, Ph. D.

This is an important book to know - as we have all been mislead by charming - but greedy, charismatic thieving con people. This type of person only wrecks havoc and hell wherever they go. Learn to identify them - in advance - for the safety and health of your personal life plus your business, team and company. .... Pat Crosby
http://Pat.SuccessIn10Steps.com

Let's say you're about to hire somebody for a position in your company. (Or recruit them onto your team. Or find them in your organization somewhere.) Your corporation wants someone who's fearless, charismatic, and full of new ideas. Candidate X is charming, smart, and has all the right answers to your questions. Problem solved, right? Maybe not. We'd like to think that if we met someone who was completely without conscience -- someone who was capable of doing anything at all if it served his or her purposes -- we would recognize it.

In popular culture, the image of the psychopath is of someone like Hannibal Lecter or the BTK Killer. But in reality, many psychopaths just want money, or power, or fame, or simply a nice car.

Where do these psychopaths go? Often, it's to the corporate world. Researchers Paul Babiak and Robert Hare have long studied psychopaths. Hare, the author of Without Conscience, is a world-renowned expert on psychopathy, and Babiak is an industrial-organizational psychologist. Recently the two came together to study how psychopaths operate in corporations, and the results were surprising. They found that it's exactly the modern, open, more flexible corporate world, in which high risks can equal high profits, that attracts psychopaths. They may enter as rising stars and corporate saviors, but all too soon they're abusing the trust of colleagues, manipulating supervisors, and leaving the workplace in shambles.

Snakes in Suits is a compelling, frightening, and scientifically sound look at exactly how psychopaths work in the corporate environment: what kind of companies attract them, how they negotiate the hiring process, and how they function day by day. You'll learn how they apply their "instinctive" manipulation techniques -- assessing potential targets, controlling influential victims, and abandoning those no longer useful -- to business processes such as hiring, political command and control, and executive succession, all while hiding within the corporate culture. It's a must read for anyone in the business world, because whatever level you're at, you'll learn the subtle warning signs of psychopathic behavior and be able to protect yourself and your company -- before it's too late.

A Vitamark Success Story: Pat Crosby

Diamond Affiliate Pat Crosby tells us how she achieved Diamond status and is building a successful Vitamark business!

My Diamond Story by Pat Crosby
When I joined Vitamark International, I was reeling from a horrendous paycut slash from another company that I had worked for 7 years.

My group volume in that company still averages $250,000.00 US/month.

Their products are great.

What I did NOT know, is that the payplan is a horrible fiasco at the expense of the hardworking and naive distributors who are never taught to look at the business aspect of a company they join. People had joined because they liked a product a friend or neighbor introduced them to and they could get products cheaper by joining.

After the 9th pay plan change (cut) in 11 years, and the elimination of the car bonus program without replacing it with something else, my income from that company was, in one fell swoop, slashed about 80%.

I LOVE the MLM industry and with a desperate longing to find a good company to align with and re-create my wonderful MLM lifestyle. I studied and interviewed Affiliates and I narrowed my choice down to 5 companies with good products that I liked.

But at that time, I did not know how important it was to understand the business side and comp plan payout schedule and to search out the track record of the company owners and management - their integrity, business acumen and skill, and global experience.

That's when my REAL education about MLM began.

Out of the blue (!) I received an email: "WHO Stole Your Bonus Check? And WHY!"

My sponsor and mentors Michael & Linda Dlouhy have set a new industry gold standard with their free mentoring program.

That program is what caught my attention when I received an invitation for a free teleseminar called "WHO stole your bonus check? And Why!" So I started learning how to mentor and teach people the fundamental and elemental business facts of life that this system explains. After all, I wouldn't want to see anybody else go through the awful learning curve I went through - that good products are just not enough to have a successful lifestyle in the MLM industry.

One needs so much more - company management integrity and experience, honest reliable field-tested leaders, exceptional products, fair-priced not hyper jacked-up priced products, a fair and equitable pay plan... for starters. A culture of respect and mutual support for ALL players.

I set about learning the business FACTS OF LIFE of comp plans and company management track records and the integrity record of the company owners.

And I began interviewing and examining companies and potential uplines for a group I could build with in confidence and assurance that I would get paid - and continue to get paid - for the benefits I would bring to a company and an organization.

One leader in another company even offered me a sweetheart placement in her organization with a pre-built downline for me to expand.

But as I applied my new found knowledge to this "opportunity's" payplan, I found it seriously lacking in payout capability compared to other companies So "Thanks, No Thanks!" I am NOT going down THAT road again... the one of lots of work for little - if any - payout. Funny how so many payplans have all kinds of CLAUSES that disqualify you from receiving all or chunks of what would be your paycheck.

So when I interviewed the awesome industry gold standard upline, Michael & Linda Dlouhy, Art Jonak, and the owners of Vitamark International, Chairman Big AL Tom Schreiter, President David Bertrand, I thought maybe I had died and gone to a new MLM heaven. In a new galaxy.

When I compared the pay plan payout of Vitamark vs other companies payout plan I was considering, I was amazed at the incredible and shocking gap in the different industry payouts for the same group sales volume.

I also discovered the HUGE gap in the number of reps one needed to find and train to create the same bottom line paycheck for myself. Only 300-400 on auto-ship to generate the same paycheck that it took 10,000 for in other payplans.

That was too much to even imagine in my pitiful state of diminished income.

With some trepidation and a great deal of hesitation, I began to learn the Vitamark payplan and how the leaders were building this incredible company.

I began learning and experiencing the Vitamark product line and began to know first-hand the power and capability of the product line. And came to know of the tremendous capability and industry respect that company co-owner Jana Mitcham garners for her brilliance and mastery of superb product formulation. I have also come to know how highly she is regarded by her peers and professional health people in this industry. Vitamark co-owner Jana is also truly gold standard. And first class.

Long standing aches and pains began to clear up as I consumed the LimuPlus juice. My neighbors and friends experienced similar great results. And started dropping by my house regularly to get another bottle. And over time to start working with the other Vitamark products.

Equally important, the ache and pain in my heart from the other company's devastatingly disregard for the little mom-and-pop individuals who build that company began to heal.

My confidence began to grow. And also my check. My faith in this industry began to heal, as I watched most carefully the conduct and behavior of the people involved with Vitamark International and saw such integrity I had not seen before in business. ANY business.

For the huge volume I was generating in another company that payed me less than a pittance of peanuts, the Vitamark pay plan would pay me - well I hesitate to say lest you think I exaggerate - MEGABUCKS more income on the same volume. Even up to 30 times more!!!

A real shocking wake-up happened when my check in Vitamark with a starter group of just 35 members equaled my check with that other company that had a downline organization of over 6000 members... of which at least 2000+ ordered in any given month.

Needless to say, my belief began to grow... even though my suspicious and wounded mind took longer to catch up with the facts of Vitamark's extraordinary pay plan, and ethical and supportive behavior of my upline and company personal. Outstanding business ethics exhibited by the Vitamark principals and leaders were frosting on the cake.

One of my front row members decided to do a lot of retailing and go on a sponsoring challenge. I partnered with him and with my upline, doing 3 ways, and going out on retailing calls to local stores and individuals.

I went 3 Star Diamond during this enthusiastic run... and couldn't believe the size of those Diamond Checks :))) I was back in the money :))) And with such a little group I had!

Things got even more amazing at the Vitamark Convention. We Diamonds were treated so outrageously well... taken out to a gorgeous VIP dinner in a chauffeured limousine. We were treated as honored royalty that evening - and throughout the weekend - by the Vitamark staff, the Vitamark leadership, and the other Vitamark affiliates, upline, downline, and crossline.

It is humbling and healing to be associated with and work with such great people as we find associated with Vitamark International.

In retrospect, it was a really good thing that the other company slashed and burned my and the other distributors paychecks. Had they not done that, I would have continued to be in the contented cow pasture... never knowing what a great grazing field existed just a little further down the road. What greater company and what amazingly greater checks awaited one willing to do the journey.

Thank you Vitamark International and all the great people associated with this company.

*****

Epilogue

This year, my story The Little Girl Who Wanted To Fly, was accepted and published in Chicken Soup For The Network Marketer's Soul: an amazing, inspiring and heartening collection of stories of all the good and great things that have happened to people who became involved with this industry. I cry when I read the beautiful stories of transformation and salvation in that book. However, with my opened eyes of wisdom, now, I know HOW important it is to be educated in the business facts of life of the MLM industry. Or, you can work your little heart out and buns off, and then be taken for a ride and dumped off somewhere if you don't learn better.

You can read - and hear me read - my Chicken Soup story here: http://thelittlegirlwhowantedtofly.blogspot.com/

I am forever grateful for the Vitamark opportunity and distributor-mega-friendly business plan for getting my life and financial future back on track. Nay, far BETTER than back on track... at a whole new level that would not have been possible before - no matter HOW long and hard I worked. http://697762.Vitamark.com

Wishing YOU your best success!

Your Friend,

Pat Crosby

PREVIEW OF UPCOMING CALL. BOOK SEGMENT
Snakes in Suits
When Psychopaths Go To Work
Paul Babiak, Ph.d. & Robert D. Hare, Ph. D.

This is an important book to know - as we have all been mislead by charming - but greedy, charismatic thieving con people. This type of person only wrecks havoc and hell wherever they go. Learn to identify them - in advance - for the safety and health of your personal life plus your business, team and company. .... Pat Crosby
http://Pat.SuccessIn10Steps.com

Let's say you're about to hire somebody for a position in your company. (Or recruit them onto your team. Or find them in your organization somewhere.) Your corporation wants someone who's fearless, charismatic, and full of new ideas. Candidate X is charming, smart, and has all the right answers to your questions. Problem solved, right? Maybe not. We'd like to think that if we met someone who was completely without conscience -- someone who was capable of doing anything at all if it served his or her purposes -- we would recognize it.

In popular culture, the image of the psychopath is of someone like Hannibal Lecter or the BTK Killer. But in reality, many psychopaths just want money, or power, or fame, or simply a nice car.

Where do these psychopaths go? Often, it's to the corporate world. Researchers Paul Babiak and Robert Hare have long studied psychopaths. Hare, the author of Without Conscience, is a world-renowned expert on psychopathy, and Babiak is an industrial-organizational psychologist. Recently the two came together to study how psychopaths operate in corporations, and the results were surprising. They found that it's exactly the modern, open, more flexible corporate world, in which high risks can equal high profits, that attracts psychopaths. They may enter as rising stars and corporate saviors, but all too soon they're abusing the trust of colleagues, manipulating supervisors, and leaving the workplace in shambles.

Snakes in Suits is a compelling, frightening, and scientifically sound look at exactly how psychopaths work in the corporate environment: what kind of companies attract them, how they negotiate the hiring process, and how they function day by day. You'll learn how they apply their "instinctive" manipulation techniques -- assessing potential targets, controlling influential victims, and abandoning those no longer useful -- to business processes such as hiring, political command and control, and executive succession, all while hiding within the corporate culture. It's a must read for anyone in the business world, because whatever level you're at, you'll learn the subtle warning signs of psychopathic behavior and be able to protect yourself and your company -- before it's too late.

Breast Cancer: printout risk reduction & preventative guidelines

2008-06-19T14:20:00.002-04:00

Thank you to our friend for forwarding this info.

Breast Cancer: printout risk reduction & preventative guidelines

Women - Have you touched yourself lately??
Do your breasts feel lumpy, achey, heavy, or just unhappy?

Lovers of Women - Are you afraid to touch her breasts in case she is on her moon?

Congestion, tenderness, achiness and general discomfort in the breasts are warnings that they are not receiving enough circulation, and this condition increases the risk of opportunistic disease

The BEST PREVENTION for cancer anywhere in the body is to DE-accumulate wastes. YOUR OWN HANDS can massage to INCREASE lymphatic movement, which is responsible for 3 very big jobs: carrying your immune components, returning cleaned plasma to the blood, and flushing out excess sugars, fats, proteins, metabolic wastes, disease & toxins.

Breast tissue does NOT have muscles to contract, which is the main way that lymph gets circulated. By manually pulsing and using a slow persistent rhythm, you can add to the flow of the body's natural rejuvenation system. Your breasts will be available to receive pleasure more often, and your breasts AND your Lover will be much happier!

This also the best RECOVERY for cancer - lymphatic massage can be done right away after surgery and is especially good in between chemotherapy sessions. AVOID the quadrant of the body where radiation treatments are done, until after the run of treatments is over.

While fighting cancer, light touch, HANDS-OFF Reiki or Healing Touch is best. Use an extremely gentle touch for brief periods, give loving attention and comfort. Then, let the sessions get progressively longer & slightly firmer over time, as the patient recovers strength.

Remember, any massage in general will increase the movement of wastes, and so can cause an overload if overdone.

LESS IS MORE - use your Loving intention and take it easy.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

...DID YOU KNOW?

^Underwires are a hazard to your lymphatic flow - take them out, the bra can still support you without the metal. Strengthen your pectoral muscles with "crocodile" push-ups.

^Digital Infrared THERMOGRAPHY is MUCH SAFER than mammograms.

^Acupuncture or Self-acupressure can relieve hormone imbalances.
Reflexology Charts: www.americanacademyofreflexology.com

^Pro-biotics can replace important micro-organisms need for digestion, that can be weakened due to disease or chemotherapy.

^Cystic breasts or congested mammogram readings can be reversed with 2-3 months of regular breast massage (Recommended Program: 10-20 minutes 2-4X/week).

WHAT ELSE CAN I DO*?

*KEEP IT NATURAL - Your body's ability to recharge itself is best accomplished with deep restful sleep, fresh air, full spectrum sunlight, healthy enzymes, and regular exercise (walking, stretching, swimming, biking).

*CHECK YOUR HORMONES - the thyroid often goes thru a dramatic change in later years, adding to endocrine system malfunction. Take a comprehensive 24-hr saliva test that checks for 8-12 important factors, not just estrogen.

*PUT GOOD THINGS IN - eat organic - drink pure filtered or distilled water - meditate & declare positive outcomes - be emotionally & creatively expressive - seek inspirational places & people.

*TRANSFORM UCKY THINGS - recycle, throw out clutter, give away stuff, delegate tasks, forgive, forget, move on, turn the other cheek, find the silver lining, retrieve your benefits, have compassion for human frailties.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

*GET INTO A REJUVENATIVE LIFESTYLE -

Accelerate the 5 ways you eliminate wastes:

•1) Respiration - breathe deeply & fully, get aerobic exercise by swinging your arms more, do chest openers, learn fire breathing, sing!

•2) Perspiration - take a hot epsom salt bath with a towel on your head, drink ginger tea, get in a sauna or steam your face over eucalyptus water, sweat!

•3) Defecation - use a colon cleanse, detox tea, aloe vera gel, bentonite clay, do an enema, take a colonic series, squat!

•4) Urination - WATER WATER WATER! Take Vitamin C, drink lots of the Master Cleanser: 1 Quart water, juice of 1 lemon, dash of cayenne, 1 Tbsp of maple syrup, piss clear!

•5) Exfoliation - Use a natural bristle brush BEFORE bathing, scrub lightly with long strokes towards the heart to tickle & move the lymph, scrub stronger in shower for dead skin removal, blush with the rush!

*HAVE MORE FUN - do new activities, stretch your spirit, open your heart by playing as a child, learn foreign language expressions, bounce on a SPORT BALL, volunteer to massage premature infants, plant a tree, listen to an inspirational speaker, take more time off, talk & walk your dreams...

6.07.08 Laura Lucas Review the 5 LANGUAGES of LOVE

2008-06-08T19:04:00.002-04:00

Learning the 5 Love Languages

Laura Lucas' review of the book
"The Five Love Languages"
by Gary Chapman.

It is ESSENTIAL, in my opinion, to understand the different Personality Colors (types) to help us understand others and how to communicate most effectively. Just as there are 4 primary personality colors (types), there are 5 primary Love Languages. Understanding this Love Languages builds on that foundation of personality types by taking it a step further and identifying the "Language" in which the people in our lives communicate and express love.

At this time, I want to clarify 2 terms:

"Language" -any set or system of words or symbols as used in a more or less uniform fashion by a number of people, who are thus enabled to communicate intelligibly with one another.

>>Example: Saying "I love you," in American English to someone who only speaks French would NOT commuicate your intended message. It would NOT be understood, But saying "Je t'aime." (in French) would CLEARLY express the same message.

"Dialect" - a variety of a language that is distinguished from other varieties of the same language; a special variety of a language

>>Example: The primary language of the United States is American English. However people in Texas sound different than people in Boston: people in Minnesota sound different from people in Georgia. And yes, people in Kentucky speak "Bluegrass" American (**GRIN**)

So just as we want to communicate with others in a verbal Language that they can understand, we want to be aware of what Love Language they understand and communicate in that language. In that way we maximize our communication and receive the fullest response to our efforts.

Are they UNDERSTANDING what you're trying to express???

Why is this so important?? Love is a primary human emotional need. Increasing our understanding and "fluency" of Love will contribute to our own personal development and impact our relationship with others.

SO???? How does this apply to Business builders you may ask.

Often times, Your ability to focus and build a business from home is impacted by the significant people in your life. Their love and support can lift you up, and just as easily their nagging and criticisms can tear you down.

What if their lack of support or negative words were just a "SIGNAL" that they were feeling unloved? How you spend your time, what you talk about, and where you invest your money may be sending them the WRONG message if you are not aware of what love-language they speak. If you could ease the tension or gain their support, would that help you???

I say "Yes."
Learning more about the 5 Love Languages
is a prudent investment in yourself and your business.

Gary Chapman identifies 5 Primary Languages of Love, and acknowledges some variations of "dialect" within each language. He states that each person has 1 or 2 primary "love languages" they can understand or receive--if the love being offered is not in "their language," they will not be able to understand what's being offered. Similar to the example I mentioned earlier about speaking English to someone that only speaks French. How about if someone came up to you and said something in Japanese or Russian?? would you understand them?? most likely not. So when you can identify what language someone receives love in, you can effectively offer your love in a way that will be understood.

As I discuss each Love Language, you will likely start to reflect on yourself and others close to you in an attempt to identify the "Love Language." Please keep in mind that GIVING and RECEIVING go hand-in-hand; however, a person may "GIVE" or offer love in a language other than they "RECEIVE" in. This difference can be for a variety of reasons, but simply put is often a "learned" or "programed" way to express love.

5 Love Languages:

1.) Words of Affirmation

2.) Quality Time

3.) Receiving Gifts

4.) Acts of Service

5.) Physical Touch

1.) Words of Affirmation:

"The tongue has the power of life and death." (Gary Chapman)

For persons with this primary love-language, they need to HEAR verbal compliments and words of appreciation. They need to hear that they look good, prepared a great meal, are appreciated for what they did do such as mowing the grass or working hard to provide a comfortable home, etc. They thrive on your encouragement and affirmation of their abilities. These must be genuine expressions, not just flattery in order to get what you want. Body language and tone of voice are key factors in expressing this love-language.

The book reminds us, "Love makes requests, not demands."

>>Note: In addition to clearly detailing each love-language the end of each chapter has wonderful, practical suggestions to help you become more "fluent" in each language.

2.) Quality Time:

"Togetherness."

For persons with this primary love-language, they require giving your undivided attention, not just your physical proximity--looking into their eyes, doing something with them that they value or enjoy doing. This love-language is notable for 2 significant dialects:

Dialect of Quality Conversation: Don't confuse this one with words-of-affirmation which focuses SAYING. Rather quality-conversation focuses on HEARING, listening sympathetically, asking questions with a genuine desire to understand thoughts/feelings/desires. Make eye contact. Don't "do" other things at the sametime. Listen for feelings. Observe body language. Refuse to interupt. Please note, quality-conversation involves not only sympathetic listening, but also SELF-REVELATION.

At this point Gary Chapman refers to 2 personality characteristics, DEAD SEA and BABBLING BROOK. We know this thru the Colors training as Self-Contained (Dead Sea) and Open (Babbling Brook). He also points out how these opposites often attract and are a 'good match' while dating--since one like to do all the talking and the other one is relieved not tohave to talk much at all. However, this 'fit' is short lived, especially in a marriage. The Open-person eventually crave more openness and sharing from the other; while the self-contained one suffers from information overload and may withdraw from truly listening.

Once again, the chapter offers some great concrete steps to help. Especially for self-contained personalities that are trying to communicate in this love-language.

Dialect of Quality Activities: Communicating in this dialect requires experiencing something together. You willing "do" or actively participate in an activity that the other person enjoys, and do it with a postive attitude. To communicate in this love-language, the activity must be something the other person values or enjoys. And remember, your attitude while participating in the activity is key.

Where will you FIND the time?? Gary Chapman honestly concludes there is NO time to be found--You must MAKE the time!!! Making time to express your love is as ESSENTIAL as "lunch and dinner."

3.) Receiving Gifts:

The gift itself is a symbol of a thought, a visual symbol of love. The gift can be purchased, found, or made. What matters is the thought, time, and/or effort that went into the gift. Cost is generally of little importance unless it is greatly out of line with what can be afforded.

For persons with a "savers" mentality, this may require an attitude change toward money to be an effective gift-giver. "Savers" will experience some emotional resistance to spending money, but investing in a significant other and fulfilling their love needs is well worth it.

Dialect of Gift of Self or Presence: With this dialect, your physical presence, your body, becomes the symbol of love.

4.) Acts of Service:

This love-language is expressed thru DOING; doing something you know will please the other person. The act will require thought, planning, time, effort, and energy such as cooking a meal, keeping a clean house, washing the car, mowing the grass, painting a room. When an activity they value is done with a postive attitude it express your love.

Gary Chapman points out that this may require a reexamination of stereotypes of roles. Out past experiences and programming can greatly impact our prospective, but if we truly want to express our love we may need to consider acts of service previously outside of our learned role.

**Note: "What we do for each other BEFORE marriage is no indication of of what we will do AFTER marriage."

5.) Physical Touch:

Physical touch is a powerful vehicle for communicating love. Holding hands, hugging, running your fingers thru their hair, kissing, embracing, and sexual intercourse are all examples of physical touch. Love touches can be simple and brief such as putting your hand on their shoulder or sitting close on the couch; other love touches may demand more time and attention such as massaging or intercourse. A slap in the face or, on the contrary, a hug can communicate your feelings to most people; but, if their primary love-language is touch it "shouts" your message. If touch is their primary love-language, nothing is more important than holding them as they cry. Your touch communicates you care.

Dialect of Sexual Intercourse: Note that having a strong desire for sexual intercourse does not necessarily make it the primary love-language.

Discover YOUR Primary Love-Language with these 3 Questions:

1.) What does your loved-one do or fail to do that hurts you most deeply? The opposite of what hurts you most is probably your love language.

2.) What have you most often requested of your loved-one? The thing you have most often requested is likely the thing that would make you feel most loved.

3.) In what way do you regularly express love to your loved-one? Your method of expressing love may be an indication that that would also make you feel loved.

Different dialects are the result of each individual being influenced by personality type (color), parents, perception, emotions, needs, and desires.

One of the clearest clues to a primary love-language is listening to the person's criticisms about behavior--"You don't appreciate me," "You never spend any time with me." "You never listen to me," "You never bring me flowers anymore," "Where were you when I needed you?" Often times these hurtful phrases are cries for love and attention-now you have a tool to translate them and thereby understand them.

Love is a CHOICE. It can not be coerced. Each of us must decide daily to Love.

This review is a mere highlight of the wonderful nuggets of valuable information contained in the book. The author has several versions more target to specific audiences, such a Married Couples, Men's Edition, of Children, of Teenagers, for Singles as well as other titles too numerous to mention.

“The key to success is to focus our conscious mind on things we desire not things we fear.” ~Brian Tracy

LISTEN: Lynn Rothfuss, Laura Lucas & Cheryl Henderson have a group conversation about how they are overcoming the inner boulders to achieve the success we all profess we want. Or do we REALLY want success - or is it just a speech we trot out at appropriate gatherings?

Hear Cheryl's perspective on how home-schooling families are creating a new paradigm to truly have their businesses support their lifestyle choice, and NOT vice versa.

After all, MLM is about our DREAMS - not somebody else's SHOULDS.

JUST A FEW TEAM BRAGS THIS WEEK

1. Report from Cheryl Henderson. GO CHERYL!

Hi Pat,

I’ve already told Lynn most of what I’m excited about and she suggested that I share it with you. Now, let me see,

1. I’m proud of myself because I spoke to 4 people about Mentoring For Free and suggested that they download the e-book before they decide to work with any particular company. It was a natural conversation, without any stress (on me!) and made me feel good.
2. I have been using the skills that I’ve learned from Mentoring for Free and from you to make my personal life better while I grow my business. I’ve been working on listening better and trying to understand why someone else’s behavior really gets under my skin. The benefits that I’ve reaped so far was demonstrated this week during the midst of the chaos of my donations to the Salvation Army, cleaning the house in preparation for the new furniture and my husband. Because I have been working on listening more than speaking, my husband became quite Blue with me and told me a lot about himself and his personal demons. I know that this wouldn’t have happened in such a positive way without the skills that I’ve been studying over the past six months.

3. I forgot to mention this to Lynn, but I purchased a new domain name (I know I’m addicted – LOL!), but this time it’s for keeps. Both you and Lynn have been patiently explaining the need to brand myself. So, my new domain name is CherylCHenderson.com. I’m using it on Facebook (in case you’re there) and will be using it on my new advertisements. I have long avoided using my name because I was hiding my profession from others. Now, I’m more secure in the knowledge of how the business works and I’m not afraid to come out of the shadows.

4. I am reading the book Secrets of the Millionaire Mind – Mastering the Inner Game of Wealth by T. Harv Eker. It is really helping me delve deeper into my “financial blueprint” and understand some of the choices that I’ve made. This is helping me to revise my financial blueprint.

So, I guess I’m really excited about finally turning into the person that I always knew I could be if I gave myself the chance.

Thanks and lots of love,

Cheryl Henderson-Khalid

CALL NOTES.
Points from Phil Snelman's Interview with Lynn Rothfuss
4.27.08
(Note: These are key points, and NOT a verbatim transcript.)

RESOURCE: Lassie's internet marketing program for $77 (NOT $5077... YES, just $77!)
http://freevideomarketingonline.com/

Key Points: Vitamark & Mentoring For Free with Big Al Tom Schreiter is a MLM DREAM.

Q. What is one of your greatest lesson you have learned in MLM?
A. Spending too much time with the wrong people. I love and respect all people, but to build a business, you must give your time to those who can follow - and do follow - instructions.

Q. How did you turn weaknesses into strengths.
A. Starting new project before finishing other project.

Example: People INTENDED to make a video who took the training... but got too busy with other things in life... so video project got put on the back burner.

IF you say you are going to do something.... it is important to DO it.... once you say you will do it.

Q. What is your personal growth process to turn your weaknesses into strengths.
A. My spiritual aspect of my life.... is my key.... everyday, I remind myself that my business is a means to an end. My spiritual life comes first. Then my family. My business comes after these things. My business also provides me an opportunity to help other people as well. My prayer life helps me tremendously.

Q. What do you like most about Vitamark?
A. After meeting Michael and reading the ebook, I liked that Tom Schreiter was in the company. Big Al Tom Schreiter was always very encouraging to me in workshops. In 7 years or so I knew him, he never indicated he was in a network marketing company... and he always encouraged me in whatever company I was doing.
I also came to realize that co-owner David Bertrand was a man of great integrity. I also came to know the caliber of the Vitamark management team. These people are looking for ways to award the network more than any other company in the industry. Their #1 priority is to reward the distributors as much as possible. No other company can say that.

I appreciate that I am still getting payouts from my previous companies. I bring them about $10million a year in volume, and they pay me only $5000. US/month. That same volume in Vitamark would be about $25,000. US/month. That is quite a difference.

Q What is tax advantage of owning your own business in UK?
A. Cost of gas here is approximately $12/gallon. The bulk of that is tax. UK is one of the highest tax rates in world. My wife does my book-keeping and tax returns.... it IS a big advantage to own your own business... I don't know nitty-gritty - but it is a BIG tax advantage.
For instance, going on the team cruise is mainly a tax advantage.

Q. Do you talk with your mentor regularly? How many mentors do you have?
A. I usually talk to Michael most days of the week. I speak regularly with Lassie, my internet marketing coach. It is very important to talk with your upline leadership team. In my experience, most people do not keep in touch with their upline leadership.
This upline-downline communication would help the whole team.

Q .When the downline calls the upline, it encourages everyone. What happens if you don't like the mentoring you are given?
A. I had some team members who were not having the results they wanted. So we did a team training on how to improve what we were doing.
If your sponsor cannot help you or is not active or capable, go further upline or to a cross-line leader.

Q. What is your humanitarian consideration outside of Vitamark.
A. My spiritual part is most important to me. My non-working hours are devoted to my spiritual study and work. We believe things are getting better, so I give my time to helping people learn about the Bible.

Q. Your wife gives you great support.
A. Yes, it is a blessings.

Lynn: Winston Churchill quote is on my wall: "Never. Never. NEVER GIVE UP!" That keeps me going - especially if I get a little depressed.

Phil: Yes, we must ASK for help... especially when we are feeling down.

Lynn. Yes, especially if we have been kicked by life and feeling down... we need help to get picked up.

Pat Crosby & Lynn Rothfuss - Duplicating The Masters.... Travel & See Your Downline

2008-04-13T20:01:00.008-04:00

LISTEN TO THIS CALL HERE

MP3 File

Hi Team,

Wow!

Join us tonight as 2 globe-trotting distributors share the lessons learned on the grand adventure of travelling and see the downline worlds.

Lynn Rothfuss & I will share the lessons learned, truths unveiled, and skills developed on our mega travels.

Two of the greatest networkers in the world - Tom "Big Al" Shreiter, and Richard Brook (Mach 2 With Your Hair On Fire), both subscribe to the leadership style of travelling and visiting with their team members in their own back yards.

So I thought I would duplicate this strategy... especially as it also co-incided with getting out of the deep-freeze NY mountain winter this year :)

So shortly after the first freezing ice storm, I set out from the NY mountains on Dec 10.

1st stop: NJ to visit with Lynn Rothfuss & John Maeder.
We learned to use Flip Video cameras, made videos, pal-ed and pow-wowed. Bonded, and strengthened our relationships.

2nd stop: Charlottesville, VA - Home of Art Jonak's alma mater, and one of his mentors, John Milton Fogg. We did a phone interview with John, co-hosted with Richard Dennis. Good thing, too! The icy blasts that night interferred repeatedly with my phone connection - so Richard and John kept it going.
Leadership Lesson: TEAMWORK WINS :)
Thanks to team member Marge for hosting us so generously :) Thanks, Marge!

3rd stop: Monticello, FL. 3 days with Richard Dennis & family. How inspiring to meet a green master in his home lair. We talked a lot, (yep - a green talked a lot) and practiced making videos. Got one online so far....
Picking the brain of a master marketer like Richard (creator of Dead Doctors Don't Lie) is .... well.... words fail me ..... let's just say he is beyond brilliant. I am learning to LOVE learning how greens think!
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=1444515281852918537&hl=en

4th stop: Miami, FL & The Caribbean SUCCESS TEAM BUILDERS CRUISE. WOW! What a week of learning and growing with our incredible team mates - from established leaders to those just starting out.
Learned from Dwight Baker more about Windows Movie Maker.... see movies here.

5th stop: PERU. My WHY is to travel on spiritual journeys. Visited Lima, Lake Titicaca, and Machu Picchu. Met some would-be networkers... and shared Success in 10 Steps and mentoring material.
Put together a workshop
http://ForgivenessGold.blogspot.com

6th stop://Back to Charlottesville, VA. This time, joined by Lynn Rothfuss. We interviewed John Milton Fogg after a delightful extended lunch with John & Family.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=FJUaqCmGn-g&feature=user

7th stop: Laura Lucas - Your Friend In KY. We made more videos with Laura, and learned LOTS of new supersoy dishes. And had LOTS of fun getting to know each other better.

Pat's Leadership Hour hosted by Laura Lucas and Rick Berry

" We Can lift Ourselves out of ignorance, we can find ourselves as creatures of excellence and intelligence and skill. We can be free! We can learn to fly! "

----Jonathan Livingston Seagull, by Richard Bach

A Month in Review and Reflection

The past 4 calls have covered a variety of topics, but like puzzles pieces fall into place with a custom fit
. I would like to share my thoughts and how it has impacted my life to this point.
I also hope that RicK Berry can share his thoughts and experiences.

1a - Beginning with Cynthia Breeds presentation about the products she uses and the benefits she is experiencing.

>>Cynthia helped me appreciate that some of my personal "2-week Trials" were not long enough to truly experience the potential benefits. I need to allow more time for an accurate measure and likewise when I suggest other people "try-it."

1b - In the second half-hour, Vicki Rodonus spoke about record keeping and Tax deductions.

>>Each year I get a little better with keeping track of receipts for tax-time itemization. As a develop a "PROFESSIONAL" mentality I realize that "I stop by the grocery while out to get office supplies; NOT stop by the office supply store while out getting groceries." These are miles I need to log and itemize for my taxes.

I took Vicki's advice and bought a small mileage log book to keep in the console of my vehicle at all times. I am learning to manage my money, records, and taxes like "the bigs dogs." I am developing the habits of a Professional.

Rick also reminded us of the resource available in Vitamark Bookstore :http://toolscart.com/comersus6f/store/comersus_listItems.asp

"Lower Your Taxes Big Time" by Sandy Botkin

2 - Richard Dennis spoke about time management and how he structures his day.

>>One of my greatest personal challenges is time management. So I was an eager listener. Although I am not an early morning person, I have managed to use my 30-minutes with my cup of coffee as time to respond to emails or prepare mailings before I start my necessities of getting ready for my J.O.B. This can free up more time in the evening to call leads, advertise, or network.

I have to admitt, I already liked index cards :) I appreciated Richard's suggestion of writing "to-do" items individually so he could sort, prioritize, and keep handy in a shirt pocket. In addition to keeping notes, I jotted down several topics and replay code # so as my monthly alotted sell-phone minutes allowed I could dial-in during my commute to/from my J.O.B.

Rick commented that time management and taking action are both things that can be developed as habits--and a new habit can be established in 21 days. Habits build Success.

3 - Sarah Thompson shared her daily method of operations and candidly spoke of her hestitations.

>>WOW!! Did I need to hear that I'm not the only one that gets "right-on-it" if it's to help someone else, BUT "drag-my-feet" if it's time to make my own calls (or action steps). I have to often remind myself that once I start I'll enjoy it & feel more energized (because I always do), but that if I put it off even for a "good" excuse I'll only feel bad and disappointed the rest of the week.

The tickler file system was also a "golden nugget" at the right time. I have been trying to keep all my notes in a steno notepad. And, honestly, I have misplaced a few customer-type leads (name/number). The morning after Sarah spoke I went out to get what I needed to create my own tickler-file. As it turns out, just in time, I got more MFF leads that week than ever before. Now having the file system did not generate the leads (that was my increased action with Direct Matches), but the universe provided a better system just in time to handle the increased information from leads.

Rick also pointed out that it's about PERSPECTIVE---You're helping the person you are calling, They NEED you to call.

As for the tickler file, Rick helped us appreciate that having the tickler file system "ready" to use, ATTRACTED the leads I was preparing for. There again the Law of Attraction is ALWAYS working.

4 - Then last week Lynn Rothfuss revealed her inner most thoughts and struggles as she grows as a Professional Network Marketer.

>>Lynn's willingness to be open and emotional is always a balancing-factor for me. My first instinct is NOT to share the inner conversations of doubt with others, then convince myself that I ALONE feel this way. On several occaissions Lynn has tought me that being open not only is therapeutic for myself, but allows others the opportunity to learn and share thru my openess. As this is not first-nature for me I require consistent and periodic reminders to keep me aware and balanced.

Rick shared the "Feel,Felt, Found" Principle

I understand how you feel. . .I felt. . . until I found. . .

On a final note, I would like to mention Pat Crosby, not for a recent presentation--but for her example.

>>I have the tendency to micro-manage things in an effort to ensure accuracy, dependability, and completion to my own expectations. Pat was able to walk-away (okay travel extensively) from the call, confident that Lynn and the other supports such as Rick, Dwight, Ken, and myself would keep the call going. Although the call bears her name & reflects upon her, she did not feel the need to select topics in advance or worry that things could "go-wrong." In allowing others to step-up and take the lead she provided us an opportunity to growth and for those of you who attend the call week after week, You can likely see the growth. Pat's is an example I will consciously make an effort to follow, and thereby allow others the maximum opportunity for growth.

Thank you for your kind attention and participation in the call tonight.

3.30.08 Lynn Rothfuss. Clearing Emotional Blocks for Success

2008-03-31T00:40:00.002-04:00

Many thanks to Lynn Rothfuss for taking the lid off the unspoken secrets of the ups and downs that accost us on our search for success.

Listen as she describes with heartfelt power how she grappled with the blues and blues on her way to success. How she overcame these feelings of doubt with her commitment to taking one daily action.

Listen as she describes the successes and how she persevered to obtain them.... in the midst of serious life changes.

Truly an inspiration for us all.

Lynn also touches on proven success strategies such as:

Convention as a turning point event
Staying in touch with your mentor
BNI Business Networking International builds confidence
Doing 1 action everyday

LISTEN HERE

MP3 File

Here is the poem Lynn opened the show with.

Know Your True Value

If you know what your true self is worth, why you have
come to the earth, why you are here, then,
even if you feel weak, you cannot be weak.

Knowing your purpose gives you energy and power to take action.
The more action you engage in, the more energy will go
to your purpose and to yourself.

When you know your purpose, even if you cannot feel your passion in the moment, you can take action for it. It’s not something you can only do when
you are completely filled with a desire for it. You will not succeed that way.

Having hope means taking action for your purpose even
when you feel weak or you “don’t feel like it.”

Realize the genuine, unchanging value of your true self and you can become someone who can show others their inadequate self as well as their true light inside. Finding that light is finding hope.

Only when you do what your true self wants can you be happy and find peace.
The voices of your emotions and desires are but dust.
Fear nothing any longer.

To be in touch with your true self is to obtain everything.
And to lose it is to lose everything.

Fly wherever you would go, like an eagle souring in the sky.
Spread wide the wings of your creation.

Don’t be lonely any longer, and
don’t be afraid. Your inner self will be with you always.

Go forward boldly, with confidence.

CALL NOTES from LAURA LUCAS

Product Highlight: Appetizer Diet Cookies & Shakes

2 Products that can be used together or separately.

The Appetizer Diet Shake comes in powdered form, ready to mix with liquid; Vanilla, Strawberry, and Chocolate Flavors offered. The Appetizer Diet Cookie comes individually wrapped and ready to eat; offered in Chocolate Chip and Oatmeal Raisin.

"Appetizer" Diet- So named because these products are great tools in managing one's appetite.

By using the product as an "appetizer" 15-45 minutes prior to eating a meal, You fill up with fiber and protien and reduce your hunger & the amount consumed at meal time--You don't need to sacrafice the feeling of satisfaction and fullness while " on a Diet."

However, the products' use and benefits are not just limited to before meals. The shakes and cookies can fit into whatever Healthy Eating Program You choose to follow. Additionally, the products are not limited to DIETERS only, they are healthy snack and meal options for ALL ages. The cookies in particular are a ready snack, especially for children.

I personally love the CONVIENCE of the individually wrapped cookies, I can keep several in my bag, my desk at work, in the console of my vehicle--so when ever hunger starts to creep up on me, I have a healthy alternative to vending machines and fast-food drive-thrus.

Appetizer Diet Shake--2 g Fiber, 21 g Protien, & more. . .

The shake features whey protien concentrate; whey protien is comprised of every essential amino acid. Amino acids help the body convert FAT to MUSCLE. Whey protien encourages production of glutathione for immune system health and effect blood sugar level. And not stopping there, components of whey protien aid the release of appetite surpressing hormones.

The shake also provides 2 grams of fiber. Fiber aides in appetite satisfaction, slows digestion, impacts cholesterol levels, blood sugar levels, and metabolism.

Just add one scoop to 12 oz cold water and shake/mix vigorously.

If using as a meal replacement Dr. Dicqie Fuller advises combining shake with another protien--such as mixing with milk or soy-milk, or in combination with a complete protien like an egg (not necessarily mix together, just eaten at the same time **grin**).

Appetizer Diet Cookies--120-140 calories, 8 g Fiber, 5 g Protien, & more. . .

The cookies offer the nutritional support, energy, and fullness of traditional sports bars with the added benefit of fiber and generally fewer calories. The cookies contain both soluble and insoluble fiber; they also contain both soy and whey protien. The cookies are produced with organic sugar and low saturated fats (no hydrogenated fats). Additionally, the cookies contain 30-35% of the Daily Value of Vitamins A,C,D,E,B1,B2,B12, Niacin, B6, Biotin, Zinc, Pantothenic Acid, and Iron; plus calcium.

>>For greater detail on ingredients and related health benefits, Please refer to the Vitamark website.

Great Product Value:

Shake @ $29.95, $2.50/serving

Cookies @ $44.95, $1.50/serving

TONIGHT: Lynn Rothfuss co-anchors with Rick Berry.

NOTES FROM LYNN ROTHFUSS:

Hi every one and good evening.

I enjoy sharing a story and poems to illustrate a point. My most favorite poem, is one I received by fax in 2001.

The poem entitled" The Masters" is so powerful and every word has special meaning for me.

Here's hoping it becomes one of your favorite, because as you speak this, you begin to realize you are taking to your soul and spirit. You are speaking your reality out loud.

The Masters

Today is a great day and I have the opportunity to show up as the best me ever!

I am an irresistible magnet with the absolute power to attract into my life

everything that I desire. My life is a huge success!

I am committed to constant and never-ending personal improvement,

and I take massive action steps to create the future, as I want it.

I will do whatever it takes to become the winner I know I can be.

My beliefs create my reality! I choose robust health, abundant wealth,
constant happiness and eternal love. I attract, heal and positively
influence the lives of people in my community.

I think big thoughts, relish small pleasures and handle all setbacks gracefully.

I give thanks for the opportunity to serve humanity and I willingly accept
the rewards being sent to me by an abundant universe.

I am deeply gratefulfor all I create and receive. My life is now in total balance and I am a MASTER!

WOW! I don't know about you, but every time I read this I get the chills.

This is so powerful as a daily guide!

So, how does one become a Master?

When ever I share I find it helpful to connect the dots and also show a wayto do the thing I'm talking about.

To become a Master, one way is to be part of a master mind group. MichaelDlouhy shares his 30 day cleanse with every one willing to commit to their personalgrowth every Wednesday at 3 PM and again 8 PM.

I was on the 30 day cleanse and being blue got unfocused and jumped off.

I find it's now time to connect back to the cleanse, my personal growth and business need the infusion.

So for those of you not on the 30 day mental cleanse and those of you, like me, who were on and jumped off, I encourage you to hop back on.

Here is the web address.

CALL NOTES LYNN ROTHFUSS BNI & AM BIZ Lynn Rothfuss Sunday February 3, 2008 Promoting and Marketing in your Local Market

BNI Business Network International Business Word of Mouth Referral System

The benefits that BNI have taught me is:

1. How to talk and share what products and services I offer, since Vitamark has 40 products, each week I describe the benefits of one product a week.

2. You give a 60 second snap shot of who you are, what type of referral your looking for, the benefits of your product or service.

3. Has taught me to know more about all my products, and what the benefits are for each product.

4. You don't sell to chapter members, you teach them what your looking for as a good referral for your business

5. You learn to do one on ones over a cup of coffee or lunch. Very Important. The one on ones, build the relationship that leads to more business.

Bottom Line: This is more about Educating and Servicing your future customers than hard selling them. Every one has a sphere of influence of 250 people. When you educate, build a relationship, many of members do become a customer and refer to not only the 250 people they know, but every one they meet along life's way.

We carry on us at all times a vinyl business card holder with all of our members cards to hand out.

AM BIZ- Another Business Networking Group Through the County Chamber of Commerce or Local City Chamber of Commerce.

AM BIZ in Warren County where I live, is run by our Warren County Chamber of Commerce. They might have a different name than AM BIZ, but function the same way.

Here is the format:

• You basically do what we do at BNI.

• You give a 20 second snap shot of what you do to whole group.

• You then divide into smaller groups, depending on how many people present.

• At your small group you are timed and given 2 minutes to give a better snap shot of what you do. • Most hand out business cards to people around their table as they talk.

• You pick a business card out of fish bowl and make time to visit with that person for a one on one to discuss further what you are both about.

• The key here is one on ones. Very important. You build relationship and sooner than later you will get more new customers. Check with your local county chamber. It is usually free for this once a month meeting from 7:15-8:30 am. Each town has a County chamber as well as a local city chamber.

Naturally the chamber is always looking for you to join chamber, put I like "FREE" when I can get it. So make sure you ask is it "Free" to join the business networking meeting of local business owners.

If the chamber does not have one, suggest if they would be interested in starting one,orrrrrrr if you could help them start one????? Great way to build reputation, credibility, and visibility!!!!! Also check out the chambers website for info and phone number.

Good Night and Success Be Yours,

Lynn Rothfuss

CALL NOTES

LAURA LUCAS ON SUPERSOY

Product Highlight: Super Soy

What is soy?? The soybean is considered a superfood, low in saturead fat. A super or complete food because it contains fat, protien, and carbohydrates, as well as offers all nine of the essential amino acids, calcium, iron, phosphorous, magnesium, thiamin, riboflavin, and niacin.

Why Soy?? Probably most popularized as a protein alternative for Vegetarians. Soy is the answer to several concerns: low cost, high protien, low-saturated fat, low-cholesterol, high-fiber, low-sodium, lactose-free source of calcium, and fewer potential toxins.

"Health" magazine (April 2007 issue) suggested, "Add one meatless meal a week. Less meat means less saturated fat--and fewer toxins like dioxin, DDT, and PCBS."

Benefits: Research is on-going that soy can benefit the human in body in various ways:

*assist with cardiovascular function

*support gallbladder function

*promote optimal blood sugar and cholesterol levels

*source of calcium to promote bone health

*anti-cancer effects

*promote cognitive function and brain healing

(sources included http://mayoclinic.com/health/soy/NS_patient-soy,

http://wikipedia.org/wiki/soybean,

http://ejnet.org/dioxin/#what.

More can be found by Googling "Soy" and other key words.)

Super Soy from Vitamark

Vitamark provides a high quality soy product that is processed using technologies that use "water" extraction and proper temperatures to insure the highest quality. Offer 4 non-GMO (Genetically Modified Organism) products: Super Soy Onion Broth, Super Soy Beef Strips, Super Soy Chicken Strips, Super Soy Ground Beef.

The beef and chicken Super Soy products are so named, not because they contain beef or chicken, but rather that thay have been texturized or shaped to resemble the name-sake. This is especially helpful for cooks not familiar with cooking with tofu or other soy products. This also assists in maintaining the "look" or visual impact of traditional dishes.

The Super Soy product comes in a dehydrated form, that requires reconstitution with liquid. You may simply use water, however flavoring the water prior to reconstituting is recommended; such as SuperSoy Onion broth, bullion, soy sauce, mustard powder, or teriyaki sauce to mention a few.

Like with most great recipes, a little experimentation

will find the right combination to please your palate.

Super-Soy Chili

1 cup dry super soy ground beef

1 cup hot water

1/2 tsp Super Soy Onion broth powder (or may use 1 beef bullion cube)

1 can Mexican chili beans

2 cans diced tomatoes (green chili optional)

2-3 8oz cans tomatoes sauce

1 small - medium onion diced

1 pkg Chili seasoning

1 small green pepper diced

salt/pepper/sugar to taste

Saute onion and green peppers in pot (use spray oil or olive oil to coat pot).

Heat water to boiling, dissolve onion broth powder (or bullion cube), stir in super soy, let sit a few minutes.

Once onion and pepper are cooked (beginning to soften), fluff super soy with fork then add to pot

Add chili beans, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, and package of chili seasoning and stir thoroughly. Heat to mild boil, then reduce heat and simmer 20 - 30 minutes. Add salt, sugar, or pepper to taste. (Note = sugar will cut the "tanginess" of the tomatoes).

I find this recipe pleases meat-eaters and vegetarians alike. In my experience, most meat-eaters don't even notice the difference.-Laura

***note this recipe is also good for camping or other situations where limited cold storage is a concern.

CALL NOTES FROM LYNN ROTHFUSS

10 COMMANDMENTS OF LEADERSHIP

In a Leadership Role one of the many benefits is becoming thick skinned, not hardened and bitter.

Sometimes there is no rhyme or reason, things just happen.

People act out of emotion, where they are stuck in their personal injury, a wound that they refuse to let go, and have yet to experience new personal growth in place of wounded ego.

NEVER TAKE ANYTHING PERSONALLY!

Keep on Keeping on! Sometimes leaders even take the blame giving the other person a chance to cool down and rethink situation.

I myself take the Spiritual Approach. The Universe is teaching the lesson to be learned.

This evening I'm empowering you! Giving you permission to take what ever I say or write and modify to fit your needs for you personally or your down-line.

The highest compliment I can receive is that that you take what I wrote and said and made it work for you.

And now ................The 10 Commandments of Leadership

1. People are illogical, unreasonable and self-centered.......................Love them anyway!

2. If you do good.....people will accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives..........Do good anyway!

3. If you are successful....You win false friends and true enemies.........succeed anyway!

4. The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow........do good anyway!

5. Honesty and Frankness make you vulnerable........be honest and frank anyway!

6. The biggest people with the biggest ideas can get shot down by the littlest people with the littlest ideas.............think Big anyway!

7. People favor underdogs, but follow only top dogs.........fight for the underdog anyway!

8. What you spend years building, may be destroyed overnight..........build anyway!

9. People really need help, but may attack you if you "do" help them.........help them anyway!

10. Give the world the best you've got and you'll get kicked in the teeth..........give the best you've got anyway!

Enjoy the Poem
Who ever wrote it knew a thing or two about life!

I found this years ago, enlarged it poster size for my classroom.

As the examples of the poem appeared into my every day class room life, I would take the time to explain each commandment in detail.

It worked, the Universe allowed me to be present to see so many grow up into successful adults.

Marketing to Women
Lynn Rothfuss January 27,2008

Pat Crosby Leadership Hour

The 6th and 7th Stages of Marketing and promoting to Women

6th Stage- Don't close a women come to the agreement and commitment.

The women feels good about this commitment and now purchases the product at this point.

Remember the women wants a sense of belonging, feeling of being understood.

The first 5 stages your building a relationship. You never build a relationship and sell at the same time!

Leave asking for the commitment, to the 6th stage we are now in.

Here is a good sample to bring her to the agreement:

"I am certain that this is the best product for you. I just want to make sure you are happy with every thing we've covered."

"Is there anything further you need to go over or shall I move forward?"

"How do you want to order by phone or over the Internet. I have both now we can do this first order together."

As you walk the women through the process remind her that a good option is auto refill, saves time and the advantage of having product arrive before product runs out, that there is no interruption with continued results.

If the women prefers to do it another time, ask permission to follow up to make sure her experience was a good one and to help with any glitches that may arise.

7th Stage- Follow up and Follow Through

Research shows when you meet the expectations of women,you exceed the expectations of men.

Women are twice as likely as men to make referrals. Women spend 30% more time shopping.

Women also take longer, need more input, expect more attentive service, require more follow up!

Plan to be there beyond sale!!

Send Thank You Note ( see below a sample of note)
If you know birthdays, anniversary..... send thinking of you cards
Send holiday cards just to keep in touch.( This one activity alone, gained 2,000 faithful customers for one salesman)
See her again, follow up with another product. Up Sell her!
Remember all this activity is tax deduct able, save receipts.

Example:

"Let me share with you the benefits of this product and see if there is a right fit for you. "

"I'd also like your feed back on how it's working for you - we have had so many great testimonies on this product."

A good sample is a few packets of Crave, Vita one, cookies and free product we get with every 100 BP on autoship.

Develop your marketing efforts in a manageable framework. Keep files and records to measure your impact and results.

Selling to a women: What it means to you:

Reward of her business
Her Loyalty
Large number of referrals (Ask her for referrals, every person has a sphere of influence of 250 people)

Example of Follow Up letter:

Dear Ms. Crosby,

Thank you for the opportunity to provide my services with Vitamark Products. I am confident that our products and exceptional service will exceed your expectations. I'm devoted to the satisfaction of my customers, so please don't hesitate to contact me should you have any questions or concerns.

I appreciate your referrals should you know of a loved one, neighbor, friend, or colleague who would benefit from my service.

Again thank you, Ms. Crosby. I will be in touch on a periodic basis, just to check in.

Sincerely,

Lynn Rothfuss

What Women To Target Market

Minority Markets
Ethnic Markets

My suggestion is you may type this letter, but when addressing the envelope use blue ink to hand write name and address. This tiny detail, suggests a warmer approach.

The purpose of promoting and marketing to women is to increase your sales volume, which in turn pays you your commission bonus check every week. Our affiliates are also part of our customer base with 3-5% being builders, everyone else, the other 95% will also purchase your products. We get paid on total volume no matter how deep.
