We've all been there in the heart-pounding moments at 3 a.m., when we desperately want to be asleep but somehow cannot get there, when we are racking our brains for what is in our medicine cabinet that might help us along or what soothing things mothers and grandmothers did to help lull us back into sweet dreams. While our sleep can be easily interrupted by a wide variety of factors, the stress that comes in getting and staying asleep doesn't make any night more restful. Before you pop a pill or crank up the late late late show or melt down in a fit of insomnia, consider these five things that might just be the sheep you should be counting:
1. Identify the insomnia issue. Americans average seven hours of sleep a night and 60% of us report difficulty sleeping at least several nights a week. The bigger problem is, many people leave it at that, never examining why they are awake long before the alarm clock goes off or everyone else is sound asleep.
Where do I begin? The first thing you need to do to cure your sleep struggles is determining if you have trouble falling asleep, staying asleep or both. If you have trouble falling asleep or staying asleep all night, you're experiencing insomnia. If you can fall asleep with ease but wake up in the middle of the night regularly, you may have the more-specific issue of "sleep maintenance insomnia". Most of us have short-term sleep issues like these at some point, but a solid 10-15% of people suffer from chronic insomnia.
Insomnia often occurs during periods of stress and may be impacted by depression, sleep apnea or restless leg syndrome. Rather than focusing on the irritation of being sleep-deprived, try to take a look at both the patterns of insomnia and things going on in your waking life that could be preventing your rest.
2. Take note. Consider keeping an informal sleep journal next to your bed. There's no need to make a journal another stresser but logging some simple information - the date, the time you woke up, how long you stayed awake before you felt sleepy again, your stress level on a one to ten scale - might offer you some helpful information in addressing the insomnia yourself or with a doctor. Although you might know, for example, that you have a high-stress job, it might take a little journaling to connect midnight wakings with Thursday staff meetings or an upcoming deadline.
How will this help? Taking note of how often you have sleep problems and exactly when may also strip away any of those tendencies to say "I NEVER sleep" or "I'm an AWFUL sleeper." Instead, you'll have some more concrete information that will move you from "I often am awake from 3 a.m. to 5 a.m." or "When bills are due, it takes me longer to fall asleep." This kind of real understanding will lead you to a solution much easier than sitting (or laying or pacing) in your frustration).
3. Use your daytime activity to support your nighttime rest. It probably isn't a surprise that even small amounts of exercise will help you rest easier at night. Adding in a walk after lunch or some yoga at your desk will pay off when it is time to turn in.
What about food? Avoid drinking and eating things that will affect your ability to relax or stay in bed. If spicy food gives you heartburn, try not to eat it at a late dinner. If drinking all your water for the day sends you to the bathroom four times before dawn, make a commitment to do most of your hydrating before lunch. Caffeine, sugar and alcohol are also common thieves of sleep, so be aware of when you are consuming them, in what quantities and how the impact your personal sleep patterns. If you must eat close to bedtime, choose a small amount of carbs paired with a protein (oatmeal with skim milk, yogurt with granola, whole grain crackers with soy butter, sliced apple with cheese are all healthy choices to late night snacking).
4. Really prepare for bed. As a mother, I don't know a single parent who doesn't have a well-established bedtime routine for their children. As a mother, I also find myself falling into bed with barely any transition time or closure on the day. At what point do we forget why the songs-stories-snuggles end of the day is so critical to the beginning of our night?
There's no need to ask your husband to read you Goodnight Moon and rub your back while singing Frere Jacques (but if that works, hey, why not?). Do weave some soothing rituals into the half-hour before you want to fall asleep by reading a few pages, stretching, meditating, listening to calm music or just breathing deeply. Releasing the day in these ways will help you let go of those nagging to-do lists and anxieties and prompt your brain and body that it is time to relax.
What are some other routines I can do? Setting a cell phone or watch alarm may cue you to keep a regular bedtime. Lavender essential oils or pillow sprays may soothe you as you settle in and counteract the chaos of the day. Finally, turn off the television, laptop and any other gadgets that make you unnecessarily accessible to life and work outside your bedroom. Finally, there's one thing from your childhood that may still work like a charm when you are having trouble sleeping. Warm milk may really help you drift off because it contains tryptophan, an amino acid that converts melatonin and seratonin and could induce sleepiness.
5. Create a bedroom that seduces you into sleep. Do you notice on cable home make-over shows how often couples ask for a renovation that will make their bedroom into a haven? Our frenetic schedules, cluttered homes and tight spaces may mean we stack up so much in our bedrooms that there's no way to escape, even to sleep! Taking a weekend to clear all that out will help you make a healthy sleep environment and may have an immediate impact on how restful you feel in that space.
Many experts say that your bedroom should be a place reserved only for sleeping and sexual intimacy (see? once again, it comes back to the snuggling). Keep this in mind as you are moving your desk, filing cabinets, sewing machines, mountainous laundry piles and kids' toys out of your room and into places where no one needs to sleep.
How can I dial down the action and dial up the allure? Keeping your room cool and dark, choosing pillows and bedding that are comfortable and you enjoy settling in to and adding black-out curtains behind your window treatments will help set the stage. Remove the television. If this pains you or your partner, consider moving it out for a month to see if it helps. If it must stay, keep it in a cabinet or armoire that closes or cover it with a scarf so you have one more marker for turning off when you turn in.
If the stress of your days still seeps in, keep a worry book by your bed where you can write down what (literally) could keep you awake that night. Or if the to-dos are what's nagging at you all night, keep a stack of sticky notes and pen next to the bed so you can transcribe them right away, knowing you can pick them up in the morning.

The Real Problem with Network Marketing and Multi-Level Marketing (MLM)
By Scott Allen
It never ceases to amaze me the extreme polar views on the topic of network marketing and MLM. Some people are passionate about it in the extreme, and there are even top celebrity authors like Robert Allen, Mark Victor Hansen, and Robert Kiyosaki doing it and advocating it. Yet, in many circles, you might as well declare yourself a leper as admit to being in network marketing.
So, what is the problem with MLM and network marketing?
Maybe it's the pyramid structure? But you can't really take issue with the tiered compensation structure—almost every large sales organization in the world has that. Salespeople get commission, and sales managers get overrides or bonuses on top of that, and sales directors on top of that, and VPs on top of that.
Or maybe it's the fact that you have to pay to participate in it? But that can't be it—that's a standard franchising model. And I assure you, the franchise fee of most traditional franchises dwarf the sign-up cost of any MLM program by comparison.
Now certainly, there are illegal pyramid, or "Ponzi", schemes. This is where the money is all being made off of signing up other people, with little or no real product ever being delivered. But in spite of whatever perceptions people may have, the fact is that Amway, Excel, Meleleuca, PrePaid Legal, USANA, and many others have sold millions upon millions of dollars of products to happy customers, many of whom are NOT also reps. So, there may be a perception problem here, but if so, the perception is out of line with the reality.
But surely the bad reputation MLM'ers has some more basis in fact than the occasional illegal pyramid scheme?
The real problem with MLM is not MLM itself, but some of the people it attracts. Network marketing is just a business model, and it really amounts to "micro-franchising". Its upside is that it has a very low cost of entry, with the potential for exceptional revenue, and there are those who achieve that.
But those same things that make it attractive make it attractive to many who are NOT really qualified or prepared to become business owners. The salient characteristics of MLM make it attractive to people who:
have not done well in their business or profession and have little money saved up to invest
have no previous experience owning or running a business
have no previous experience in sales
have little or no experience developing business relationships other than that of employer/employee/co-worker
are not satisfied with their current level of income
have unrealistic expectations of the amount of work involved compared to the revenue realized
Don't get me wrong—I'm not saying that there's anything wrong with any of these
things, or that this describes even a majority of network marketers—only that it describes a disproportionate number of network marketers, and that many of them never do anything about it.
As a result, many network marketers end up:
over-selling the opportunity
inappropriately discussing business in social situations
coming across as desperate
over-focused on new recruits and neglecting existing customers as a result
being either inaccurate or deceptive when talking about their business
Again, I'm certainly not saying that this describes a majority of network marketers, but it does describe enough of them to tarnish the reputation of the rest. To pre-judge someone based on the basis of a small minority of people in that group is horribly unfair, but we must realize that most prejudices have some basis in reality, even if it has been distorted.
So what's the solution?
There's a first time for everything. And network marketing/MLM is a great opportunity for people to have their first business, their first sales role, etc. My point is this—recognize it for what it is: it's a business, and you are a business owner. And if you've never owned a business before, if you've never done sales before, if you've never networked before, you need to learn about how to do so, not just from the network marketing/MLM experts, but from established experts in those fields.
Network marketers who are serious about building a business should be reading and learning about business fundamentals, the latest sales and marketing techniques, strategies for networking and business development, etc., not just swapping tips at your team's weekly or monthly meeting. Act like a small business owner, and people will treat you like one.

Is Network Marketing Easy?
By Michael Lemm, FreedomFire Communications
I personally believe we do a disservice to the industry and ourselves if we openly state...or even allude...that network marketing is easy. It's not. Nor is any business....work at home or brick and mortar. Anyone who does say different is not being wholly truthful. I find that to be a shame.
NWM requires 3 main ingredients....time, effort, and yes - money. Time is just a matter of redirecting your habits. Not easy but doable.
- Time directly impacts your efficiency.
- Effort is entirely controllable by the individual....and directly impacts your effectiveness.
- Money is self limiting and directly affects both efficiency and effectiveness.
An individual must find the best combination of the three that works for them. Someone else can't tell you what that combination is....but can help you find it (for example a good sponsor).
The new MLMer faces a daunting task...and competition...when it comes to "advertising". Finding that "best combination" of time, effort, and money is a growth experience. Rarely will it just appear....education (self and provided) plus mentoring (if available) are important factors and hopefully a fact of life. However, "advertising" is not impossible.
In my mind advertising is just whatever method you choose to "reach" people. It might be the traditional newspaper or ezine ad or the simple greeting and sharing with a friend....new or old. How you "advertise" or "share" can take many forms.
There are free and inexpensive methods that do work. It's a matter of finding those that work for you.
For example:
1. Writing and submitting ezine articles is an excellent method. It requires time & effort...but no money. The benefits include increased link popularity for the url used in your sig box (important for search engine ranking), branding, and reach (you can "reach" more with an article than an ezine ad). Plus it's viral. Often your article is archived by publishers and directories.....available well after it was originally offered. Plus publishers and web masters will often "pick up" your article...again well after you originally submitted it.
2. Business cards are always a good method...and more inexpensive than one realizes. You can even make your own. Just pass them out like candy....stores, church, ball games, local events, restaurants (leave 1 with your bill), businesses you frequent, networking meetings, local Chamber Of Commerce. The possibilities are only limited by your imagination.
3. Flyers, posters, post cards, brochures, etc. can also be done very inexpensively. You can make your own on your PC or purchase custom or ready made templates from numerous online providers. You could even strike up a joint venture with a local community provider. They print it for you and include their "advert" somewhere...you distribute. You both win, you pay less, and maybe influence that partner to be involved in your business.
4. Web decals on your vehicle(s) is another inexpensive method. I have one on each of our family cars (back window) with a short "catch line" and my url. Cost was about $40 each but the visibility is priceless.
5. Newspaper/magazine ads can be found that aren't going to cost an arm and a leg. Local publications are the best place to start. Nationwidenewspapers.com is an excellent source. For some of my services I've found College student newspapers and alumni magazines to be good performers.
These are just a few examples.
Of course there are the traditional ezine and magazine ads, leads programs, event booths, direct mailings, card decks, Forum participation (sig line - branding reputation), search engines, "3 foot rule", etc. Most of these will cost you money...all will cost you time & effort.
The key I believe is in being creative and sticking to what best fits your time, effort, money combination. It is and should be a personal choice. If the dollar "cost" doesn't give you the dollar "value" you hope for....keep looking. But don't EVER give up.
Plus...diversify. Use multiple methods. Why limit yourself to just "one path"?
Should we just sponsor those willing to waste $1,000's advertising? Heck no!! We should sponsor anyone interested and teach them how to advertise in a manner best suited for them. Don't mislead them with false expectations or pressure them into uncomfortable actions. Lead them to solutions which best fit their expectations & abilities (time, effort, money).
Some of you may think this approach too simplistic and not duplicable. You're married to some system or another. Well guess what....if your folks won't, don't, or can't do it..."it ain't duplicable Bubba!" But if you help them find something they will and can do....THAT approach IS duplicable.
Just remember to be honest, be helpful, be yourself....and have fun! Then pass it on!
I guess to sum it up...I've always liked John Milton Fogg's answer to the question - "It is simple, but it isn't easy"

Four Unfortunate Myths About Online MLM
by Luke Ilech
Experts and newbies are alike in misunderstanding the way online MLM works, and under-estimating the steps involved.
Two examples of common (but untrue) MLM myths are: "An Internet Marketing Expert is an Automatic MLM expert" and "Make a Ton of Sales, And You Make a Ton Of Cash".
People fall for the same old myths about how these programs work. And these end up costing them hundreds or thousands of dollars a year in wasted time and effort.
Acquaint yourself with these for myths, and protect yourself from the online hype and misconceptions.
Myth #1: MLM On The Internet Can Be Wildly Profitable in One Month
The most unfortunate and damaging myth about online home business is that the income can come quickly.
It *may* be possible for a "big dog" with an established network of partners, to create a residual income of $1000 in one month. But this will never happen for the average person building from scratch.
Consider this:
The average internet MLM pays $2 to $7 per person in an organization. To earn $2000 - $7000 per month, you need 1000 people in your organization.
This is very possible to achieve. But it takes time.
Myth #2: "It’s A Ground Floor Opportunity - You Must Join Today"
When someone says: "Ground Floor Opportunity - Join Today" what are they really saying?
Is it: (1) "People who join after me have less chance of making money than I do" ? OR (2) "The company will be useless in two years time" ?
Would you want to take a year or two to build a good residual income, only to have that income disappear?
And what would happen to the suckers who join in six or seven months time?
A good business opportunity should actually improve with time and exposure. It’ll be based on products (or services) - and delivering more in the product value than the dollar amount people are paying for it.
(Yes it IS possible to find such companies on the internet. I know a few).
Myth #3: Make A Ton Of Sales and You Make A Ton Of Cash
The way MLM (truly) works best is if a large number of people each help each other to make a small numbers of sales.
Let me show you what I mean:
In an offline business we were in, a guy joined who was an awesome direct mail marketer. Soon he put together a masterly direct mail campaign to promote this opportunity. He invested a lot of money then unleashed his packages. In five weeks he had several hundred people in his downline, and was earning several thousand dollars per month.
But within two years he had dropped out of that company.
Why is this?
It’s because almost none of the people he brought in were able to do what he was able to. So he wasn’t able to help them grow their businesses. (He possibly didn’t have time to help 500 newbies). And since the monthly purchase requirement was $130 in this particular company they soon started dropping out.
The point you really ought to understand is this:
"In MLM, you don’t make much money from making sales - You make much money from building an organization!"
This brings us nicely to the next and final myth:
Myth # 4: You Build From The Top Downwards
Many people feel that you "come in at the top", then bring people in "under you". They reflect this in their attitude to the job.
If you’re smart, you’ll know better.
You build from the bottom.
At the start, there’s no one else in your business. You just have a dream, and help from your company and upline.
You find three bricks and place them in your foundation. Then you physically support them from below. Yes, they’re a bit heavy at first, but you do the job - you continue to support them.
One morning you wake up and there are nine bricks in your structure. From the three you started with.
You’re supporting the nine brick structure now, and because you do, it continues to grow. Eventually, when you look up, you find that you have a solid building, based on "below support".
Can you see it?
The bottom "bricks" are people you recruit and assist to take their first steps as marketers of your opportunity. When they help other people, your organization expands.
The point is that the engine that drives lasting MLM growth is people helping other people, in small numbers, and everybody doing their share.
At the beginning your job is to sponsor a small number of people and support them, and encourage them to make sales... encourage them to encourage other people in the same way.
Once you build a small group of people and the helping culture takes hold, you’ll start to develop a rapidly growing organization... that grows rapidly and wildly with a momentum you couldn’t stop, even if you tried to.
You’ll have an online home business you can be proud of.

Experts and newbies are alike in misunderstanding the way online MLM works, and under-estimating the steps involved.
Two examples of common (but untrue) MLM myths are: "An Internet Marketing Expert is an Automatic MLM expert" and "Make a Ton of Sales, And You Make a Ton Of Cash".
People fall for the same old myths about how these programs work. And these end up costing them hundreds or thousands of dollars a year in wasted time and effort.
Acquaint yourself with these for myths, and protect yourself from the online hype and misconceptions.
Myth #1: MLM On The Internet Can Be Wildly Profitable in One Month
The most unfortunate and damaging myth about online home business is that the income can come quickly.
It *may* be possible for a "big dog" with an established network of partners, to create a residual income of $1000 in one month. But this will never happen for the average person building from scratch.
Consider this:
The average internet MLM pays $2 to $7 per person in an organization. To earn $2000 - $7000 per month, you need 1000 people in your organization.
This is very possible to achieve. But it takes time.
Myth #2: "It’s A Ground Floor Opportunity - You Must Join Today"
When someone says: "Ground Floor Opportunity - Join Today" what are they really saying?
Is it: (1) "People who join after me have less chance of making money than I do" ? OR (2) "The company will be useless in two years time" ?
Would you want to take a year or two to build a good residual income, only to have that income disappear?
And what would happen to the suckers who join in six or seven months time?
A good business opportunity should actually improve with time and exposure. It’ll be based on products (or services) - and delivering more in the product value than the dollar amount people are paying for it.
(Yes it IS possible to find such companies on the internet. I know a few).

What Is A Pyramid Scheme?
By Reem Heakal
A pyramid scheme is a fraudulent investing plan that has unfortunately cost many people worldwide their hard-earned savings. The concept behind the pyramid scheme is simple and should be easy to identify; however, it is often presented to potential investors in a disguised or slightly altered form. For this reason, it is important to not only understand how pyramid schemes work, but also to be familiar with the many different shapes and sizes they can take.
The Scheme
As its name indicates, the pyramid scheme is structured like a pyramid. It starts with one person - the initial recruiter - who is on top, at the apex of the pyramid. This person recruits a second person, who is required to "invest" $100 which is paid to the initial recruiter. In order to make his or her money back, the new recruit must recruit more people under him or her, each of whom will also have to invest $100. If the recruit gets 10 more people to invest, this person will make $900 with just a $100 investment.
The 10 new people become recruiters and each one is in turn required to enlist an additional 10 people, resulting in a total of 100 more people. Each of those 100 new recruits is also obligated to pay $100 to the person who recruited him or her; recruiters get a profit of all of the money received minus the initial $100 paid to the person who recruited them. The process continues until the base of the pyramid is no longer strong enough to support the upper structure (meaning there are no more recruits).
The Fraud
The problem is that the scheme cannot go on forever because there is a finite number of people who can join the scheme (even if all the people in the world join). People are deceived into believing that by giving money they will make more money ("with an investment of just $100, you will receive $900 in return"). But no wealth has been created; no product has been sold; no investment has been made; and no service has been provided.
The fraud lies in the fact that it is impossible for the cycle to sustain itself, so people will lose their money somewhere down the line. Those who are most vulnerable are those towards the bottom of the pyramid, where it becomes impossible to recruit the number of people required to pay off the previous layer of recruiters. This kind of fraud is illegal in the Unites States and most countries throughout the world. It is estimated that 90% of people who get involved in a pyramid scheme will lose their money.
Fraud Disguised
Because people are attracted to the idea of making a quick buck with very little effort, many different forms of disguised pyramid schemes have succeeded in fooling people. Despite the illusion of legality presented by these revamped schemes, they are still illegal. It is thus important to recognize the characteristics of such so-called investment plans.
Many schemes will adopt the guise of gift-giving or loans that take place in investment clubs because none of these activities are technically illegal. However, the practice of donating a gift (tax free up to $10,000 in the U.S.) to someone (the recruiter), then having to recruit people into the club in order to receive a return on your investment (or your gift, rather) is essentially a pyramid scheme in disguise.
Multi-Level Marketing (MLM)
Legal multi-level marketing (MLM) involves being recruited in order to sell a product or service that actually has some inherent value. As a recruit, you can make a profit from the sales of the product or service, so you don't necessarily have to recruit more salespeople below you. And while you may be encouraged to recruit other salespeople whose sales would give you more profit, you can stick to just selling the product directly to the consumer if you choose.
A pyramid scheme MLM, however, will most likely sell a product with no independent value. The product could take the form of reports of some kind, for example, or mailing lists. In this kind of pyramid scheme, you would be required to recruit new members into the MLM in order to make a profit and keep the MLM alive. Joining the MLM is the only reason anyone would buy the products sold by this pyramid scheme.
Ponzi SchemesNamed after Charles Ponzi, who ran such a plot from 1919-1920, the Ponzi scheme is a fraudulent investment plan. It is not necessarily a pyramid, which is hierarchical. In a Ponzi scheme, there is one person who takes people's money as an "investment" and does not necessarily tell them how their returns will be generated. As such, the people's return on investment could be generated by anything; it could come from money taken from new investors - which means new investors essentially pay off the old investors - or even from money made by gambling in Las Vegas.
Chain LettersChain letters can be received electronically or through snail mail and are not illegal on their own. However, they take on the form of a pyramid scheme when the letter asks you to donate a certain amount of money (even just $0.05) to the people on a list, then delete the name of the first person on the list, add your name, and forward the letter to a certain number of other people. The next people receiving the letter are then asked to do the same thing, so that you can receive your money as well. By forwarding the letter, you are asking people to give money with the promise of making money.
Conclusion
It is easy to see how a pyramid scheme can work, but participating in it (regardless of the form in which it is presented) involves deception and fraud because not everyone will receive the money that is promised in return.
As with any other investment plan you consider entering, it is important to ask the right questions. How will this money be invested? What is the rate of return? Who will be investing it? Talk to professionals and do your research before placing your money anywhere. And always remember that if a plan promises you'll get rich quick with no risk or doesn't tell you how your money will be invested, you should raise a red flag and exercise caution before getting on board.

ARTICLE 3: HOW DOES NETWORK MARKETING WORKS?
In Network Marketing we help and assist others in building their business. We are also leveraging their time, with each of us is gathering customers along the way.
Hence the name Network. We get paid for this because we are assisting, coaching and helping them to establish their business. Helping them to reach their goals for their financial future. So Its only right that we also get paid for our time?
Just like your employer leverages your time, through network marketing you can leverage the time of others. What does this mean?
Lets take a look at a typical employer in a service industry with 100 or more employees. That has a labor rate of 60 dollars per hour. The goal of our employer is to keep each employee active and busy for each hour paid.
Out of this once all the costs of doing business are factored in such as wages paid, health insurance, unemployment insurance, federal taxes, state taxes, fica taxes, permits, maintenance, housekeeping, the list just goes on and on. The employer may get to keep 5 to 10 dollars per hour of that labor rate.
In Network Marketing, we have our initial start up costs anywhere from just a few dollars to several hundred dollars. Where most network marketers fail is they feel that they don't need a marketing budget for advertising, they don't seek out the education required to succeed.
One of the important things to remember is, you are in a real business, you no longer have a boss holding you accountable. Your success or failure is dependent upon you and your actions.
Your primary task will be to gathering customers for your products or services. To help and assist others get started in their own business partnered with you. You are looking at a business model that will take 3 to 5 years to produce the kind of results you’re looking for.
So don’t give up your day job just yet. It will require 5 to 20 hours of consistent time and effort each week to build a successful Network Marketing Business. It will require a marketing budget, most people do not even consider this. Once again this is a real business this is your business, not a get rich quick overnight program, although it has been hyped by a great many naive marketers and web sites.
Network marketing is based on word of mouth advertising which is the most effective form of advertising. Think about it when you go out, watch a great movie, you will go out and tell people about it. When Sam’s club or Costco moved to your area, you joined their buying club and started telling everyone how much you saved. This is the power of word of mouth advertising.
Major advertising agencies and companies count on this. This is one of the things that we do as network marketers. The major difference is that we get paid for our word of mouth advertising.
One of the most often asked questions is, will I have to sell products and services? The answer is of course yes. Think about it, no one likes to have a salesman or woman come to the door and sell them products right. We hate to go to the automobile dealers, where we are swarmed with 5 different sales people all trying to get you to buy from them right!
So how are we as a network marketer different? We recommend products or services that we like and personally use. If we know it’s good and personally use it, recommending it to our friends and family is very easy.

ARTICLE 2: Network Marketing Training
Which came first the chicken or the egg? This is a tough question, yet this is what we face today in network marketing.
Realistically speaking where else can you start a business with the hope and dreams of making a six figure income yet think that you can do it with no training?
This is what we are led to believe when we start our businesses. Some of the responses I’ve received, “my company provides training”, yes but is it effective?
Many companies provide training, a generic; this is what we think you need type of training. While they do a great job of teaching you about your products and services, they are woefully inadequate in teaching you about marketing.
Keep this in mind, you are the CEO of your company, it is your business. There are so many things you must become skilled at or you will fail. Every time I see an ad “all you need is a computer” I cringe. So many in this industry today have never used their computer for anything more then just checking their email or playing games.
Most companies if not all companies teach you to approach your friends and family. They teach this because; they know full well it requires no skill. I know I’ve been there and I’m sure you have too with a list of 200 names.
These are just a few of the skills you will need in prospecting and sales;
Approach / Involvement
Overcoming Objections
Ability to close the sale
Qualifying
Prospecting / Cold Calls
Presentations
Time Management
Telephone Technique
Computer Skills;
This is one area where most people fail. It is the one area I spend most of my time teaching people just how to use their computer in their business. A computer can be a very effective and powerful tool if used properly. I am not talking about sending out thousands of emails from it. This is the surest way to get into hot water.
If you are using a web based email system stop now. Email marketing is tough today; I cannot even get my bills that are sent online to my inbox. They end up in the bulk mail folder. This could be because someone or a number of people click by accident on the junk mail link. If you want to be a professional, you need a unique email address that is your own.
With so many different courses and people offering you training information how do you choose anyone of them? Learn from them all, the real key to success is in not believing anyone source.
Aside from the prospecting skills, you will need skills in how to market both online and offline. This is where LeadersClub can assist you in doing it the right way, without breaking the bank.
The key is you’re in business and you are the whole business. Some will say to outsource and yes this is an option, but how will you know if the job is getting done properly with out some education on the subject at hand. Do you have more money then time?
Robert Kiyosaki called network marketing “The Business School” for a reason. So if you are not ready to roll up your sleeves and learn everything you need to be successful even if it costs you then maybe this really is not for you!
Having worked with so many people, the one driving force that led them to success was, “The day they decided they where going to be successful”! The day they finally decided, they would do whatever it takes to get there.

ARTICLE 1: WHAT IS NETWORK MARKETING?
It is a relationship business; it is about helping people build a business or focusing on your customers for your products and services. Network Marketing really is an unseen business and it is all about sales.
It is businesses in which anyone can invest a small sum of money and through sheer tenacity achieve staggering levels of financial reward and personal freedom. But it requires education based on market tested results.
Network Marketing does not have giant signs or large offices, yet according to the Direct Selling Association (DSA) over 13 million people in the U.S. are working in the network marketing / direct selling industry.
The Network Marketing / MLM industry has a very shady reputation. Many of the people you will talk to feel it is a scam.
Are they justified in this opinion? In many ways they are justified, but you can make a difference with the way you market your business.
In the 1950's when Franchise’s first emerged they where labeled a scam, illegal etc.
Fortunately a franchise is not labeled as such anymore or quite possibly you would not be enjoying your favorite hamburger today.
Let’s look at the two types of business models that you could be involved in or approached with:
Network marketing / Multi-level marketing (MLM)
They usually offer reasonably priced products and services that people consume in a short time. Generally the commission structure is less up-front then the direct sales companies, but it has a benefit that most direct sales companies do not have and that is residual income.
It costs much less to get involved with this form of business, a few hundred dollars.
Allows more people to become involved.
Builds Residual Income.
Leverages the time of others.
Network marketing is all about sales and distribution, but a different kind of sales. It’s more of a soft sale or recommendation then the hard closing type that you’re accustomed to with the typical salesman or saleswoman in the direct sales.
The best approach by far in network marketing is a consultative sales approach. This is used very successfully today.
Direct Sales Companies
These companies are known as seller-based, they market higher priced, usually one time sales items. The benefits of these programs are you make higher commissions but they have very little if any residual income. Essentially if you stop working so does your income.
You are paid directly on what you personally sell, so you have to sell lots and lots of merchandise. This also limits you to the type of people you can bring into your business as the “salesperson” type.
Direct sales cost more to get involved with usually in the thousands of dollar range, again limiting you on the number of people!
Affiliate programs fall under the direct sales company model. You only get paid when someone orders a product. There is nothing wrong with affiliate programs, and they can produce a residual income if it is a service based product.
It is vitally important to understand aspects of a network marketing company, compensation plans, training, products, services, before you actually pick a company that is right for you.
When you first get start looking at a network marketing business you really need to have the mindset that you are starting school "A" business school. You need to tap into training from day one. There is so much you will have to learn that at times you will feel completely overwhelmed.
If you stop to think of it as a giant puzzle with so many pieces that have to fit together properly you will be on the road to success. Through out our life, the school systems have taught each of us to be a good employee.
Our college system has taught us to be a good manager. We have never really been taught how to successfully run our own business.
What we really need to do at this point is unlearn everything that we’ve been taught. The employee mindset is to do as little work as possible.
As a small business owner, if you’re not willing to go the extra mile in both time and money, then it is time to start thinking about doing something else in life.
Network marketing, should be about gathering customers and business partners, yet most of the companies today only teach you to recruit and get everyone on the product.
You can build a very successful business with only a handful of representatives in your organization if they are taught to gather customers along with others who show a genuine interest in building a business.

20% Rakyat Malaysia Alami 'STRESS'
AHAD METRO (15 JUN 2008)
Kira-kira 20 peratus penduduk negara ini berdepan simptom tekanan mental atau stres dan daripada jumlah itu, 11 peratus adalah orang dewasa manakala sembilan peratus kanak-kanak.
Hasil kajian Tinjauan Kesihatan dan Morbiditi Kebangsaan 2006 oleh Kementerian Kesihatan menunjukkan sebanyak 40 peratus orang dewasa mengalami gangguan tidur, manakala enam peratus pula ada niat membunuh diri akibat stres. Kebanyakan mereka berusia antara 16 hingga 24 tahun.
Menteri Kesihatan, Datuk Liow Tiong Lai, berkata usaha meningkatkan kesedaran mengenai stres dan cara menanganinya dilaksanakan Kementerian Kesihatan sejak 2000 melalui pelancaran Kempen Cara Hidup Sihat bertemakan Promosi Kesihatan Mental.
“Stres berlaku apabila seseorang mempunyai tanggapan dia tiada kemampuan, sumber atau cara untuk memenuhi kehendak diri. Terlalu banyak stres atau yang berpanjangan akan memudaratkan kesihatan.
“Stres kronik menyumbang masalah kemurungan, tekanan darah tinggi, sakit jantung dan kemungkinan kanser. Kemurungan berpanjangan juga jika tidak dirawat boleh membawa kejadian bunuh diri, selain punca migrain, insomnia, ulser dan sakit belakang,” katanya.
Beliau berkata demikian selepas melancarkan Program Jom Tangani Stres peringkat kebangsaan di Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Seri Permaisuri, di sini, semalam.
Program itu memberi penekanan kepada membina kemahiran menangani stres. Sesi latihan dan bengkel dilaksanakan di peringkat kebangsaan, negeri dan daerah dengan tiga kumpulan sasaran iaitu murid, dewasa dan warga emas.
“Aspek pendidikan kesihatan, termasuk stres dan cara menanganinya, mesti diterapkan pada peringkat awal atau zaman persekolahan.
“Program seperti Prostar dan Doktor Muda antara program Kementerian Kesihatan di sekolah bagi memberi pengetahuan dan kesedaran untuk mengubah tingkah laku berkaitan kesihatan di kalangan warga sekolah.
“Ada murid darjah enam cuba membunuh diri kerana keputusan peperiksaan UPSR (Ujian Penilaian Sekolah Rendah) tidak bagus.
“Jika baru di peringkat kanak-kanak tidak mampu berdepan stres, bagaimana hendak tangani stres apabila di sekolah menengah atau pada masa akan datang,” katanya.

Sleep: A Necessity, Not a Luxury By Dennis Thompson
The pace of life gets faster and faster, and people try to cram more and more into every minute of the day.
As things get more hectic, sleep tends to get short shrift. It's seen as wasted time, lost forever.
"For healthy people, there's a big temptation to voluntarily restrict sleep, to stay up an hour or two or get up an hour or two earlier," said Dr. Greg Belenky, director of the Sleep and Performance Research Center at Washington State University Spokane.
"But you're really reducing your productivity and exposing yourself to risk," Belenky added.
That's a message doctors are trying to spread to Americans, including the estimated 40 million people who struggle with some type of sleep disorder each year.
Before Thomas Edison invented the light bulb in 1880, people slept an average of 10 hours a night. These days, Americans average 6.9 hours of sleep on weeknights and 7.5 hours a night on weekends, according to the National Sleep Foundation.
"The group of people getting optimal sleep is getting smaller and smaller," said Dr. Chris Drake, senior scientist at the Henry Ford Hospital Sleep Disorders and Research Center in Detroit. "When a person's sleep drops to six hours or less, that's when a lot of things become very problematic."
While experts recommend seven to eight hours of sleep each night, the amount needed for an individual can vary.
But lack of sleep affects a person in one of two ways, Belenky said. First, sleeplessness influences the day-to-day performance of tasks.
"The performance effects are seen immediately," he said. "You short-change yourself of sleep, and you see the effects immediately. You can make a bad decision. You can miss something. Have a moment's inattention, and you're off the road."
The longer-term effects of sleep deprivation involve a person's health. Doctors have linked lack of sleep to weight gain, diabetes, high blood pressure, heart problems, depression and substance abuse.
"Hormones that process appetite begin to get disorganized," said Drake, who's also an assistant professor of psychiatry and behavioral neuroscience at the Wayne State University School of Medicine. There's a decrease in the amount of leptin, an appetite-suppressing hormone, when a person gets too little sleep. At the same time, ghrelin -- a hormone that stimulates appetite -- increases with a lack of sleep.
Too little sleep also interferes with the body's ability to regulate glucose and can cause inflammation leading to heart problems and a rise in blood pressure. "There's a stress response to being in a sleep loss," Belenky said.
The types of people not getting enough sleep also break down into two groups. First, there are those who make the conscious choice to go without enough sleep.
"It's sort of part of the culture," Belenky said. "People pride themselves on getting little sleep. You'll hear people bragging, 'I only need six hours a night.' So there's a macho element here."
On the other hand, there are people who are suffering from sleep disorders. These disorders include:
* Insomnia, an inability to go to sleep or stay asleep.
* Sleep apnea, or breathing interruptions during sleep that cause people to wake up repeatedly.
* Restless legs syndrome, a tingling or prickly sensation in the legs that causes a person to need to move them, interrupting sleep.
Someone suffering from any of these problems should visit their doctor or see a sleep specialist, Belenky said.
Sleep apnea, the most prevalent sleep disorder, can have particularly serious long-term effects if left untreated. "You're waking up out of sleep to breathe. You can't sleep and breathe at the same time," Drake said. "It's a risk factor for developing major cardiovascular health effects."
Some people who have trouble sleeping will resort to mild sedatives like Ambien and Lunesta.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration recently asked the makers of these sedative-hypnotic drugs to strengthen their warning labels. This action followed reports of dangerous allergic reactions, as well as a host of bizarre behavioral side effects that include sleep-driving, making phone calls, and preparing and eating food or having sex while asleep.
Drake and Belenky both consider sleeping pills to be fine for the short term if taken properly.
"Sleeping pills are a temporary solution," Belenky said. "If you're upset about something or have situational insomnia, or you're trying to sleep at the wrong time of day because you've traveled across time zones, they are effective."
But, both doctors noted the pills will do nothing to help a chronic sleep problem. "They don't address the pathology of their sleeplessness," Drake said.
The U.S. National Institutes of Health offers these tips for getting a good night's sleep:
* Stick to a regular sleep schedule.
* Avoid exercising closer than five or six hours before bedtime.
* Avoid caffeine, nicotine and alcohol before bed.
* Avoid large meals and beverages late at night.
* Don't take naps after 3 p.m.
* Relax before bed, taking time to unwind with a hot bath, a good book or soothing music.
* If you're still awake after more than 20 minutes in bed, get up and do something relaxing until you feel sleepy. Anxiety over not being able to sleep can make it harder to fall asleep.

As things get more hectic, sleep tends to get short shrift. It's seen as wasted time, lost forever.
"For healthy people, there's a big temptation to voluntarily restrict sleep, to stay up an hour or two or get up an hour or two earlier," said Dr. Greg Belenky, director of the Sleep and Performance Research Center at Washington State University Spokane.
"But you're really reducing your productivity and exposing yourself to risk," Belenky added.
That's a message doctors are trying to spread to Americans, including the estimated 40 million people who struggle with some type of sleep disorder each year.
Before Thomas Edison invented the light bulb in 1880, people slept an average of 10 hours a night. These days, Americans average 6.9 hours of sleep on weeknights and 7.5 hours a night on weekends, according to the National Sleep Foundation.
"The group of people getting optimal sleep is getting smaller and smaller," said Dr. Chris Drake, senior scientist at the Henry Ford Hospital Sleep Disorders and Research Center in Detroit. "When a person's sleep drops to six hours or less, that's when a lot of things become very problematic."
While experts recommend seven to eight hours of sleep each night, the amount needed for an individual can vary.
But lack of sleep affects a person in one of two ways, Belenky said. First, sleeplessness influences the day-to-day performance of tasks.
"The performance effects are seen immediately," he said. "You short-change yourself of sleep, and you see the effects immediately. You can make a bad decision. You can miss something. Have a moment's inattention, and you're off the road."
The longer-term effects of sleep deprivation involve a person's health. Doctors have linked lack of sleep to weight gain, diabetes, high blood pressure, heart problems, depression and substance abuse.
"Hormones that process appetite begin to get disorganized," said Drake, who's also an assistant professor of psychiatry and behavioral neuroscience at the Wayne State University School of Medicine. There's a decrease in the amount of leptin, an appetite-suppressing hormone, when a person gets too little sleep. At the same time, ghrelin -- a hormone that stimulates appetite -- increases with a lack of sleep.
Too little sleep also interferes with the body's ability to regulate glucose and can cause inflammation leading to heart problems and a rise in blood pressure. "There's a stress response to being in a sleep loss," Belenky said.
The types of people not getting enough sleep also break down into two groups. First, there are those who make the conscious choice to go without enough sleep.
"It's sort of part of the culture," Belenky said. "People pride themselves on getting little sleep. You'll hear people bragging, 'I only need six hours a night.' So there's a macho element here."
On the other hand, there are people who are suffering from sleep disorders. These disorders include:
* Insomnia, an inability to go to sleep or stay asleep.
* Sleep apnea, or breathing interruptions during sleep that cause people to wake up repeatedly.
* Restless legs syndrome, a tingling or prickly sensation in the legs that causes a person to need to move them, interrupting sleep.
Someone suffering from any of these problems should visit their doctor or see a sleep specialist, Belenky said.
Sleep apnea, the most prevalent sleep disorder, can have particularly serious long-term effects if left untreated. "You're waking up out of sleep to breathe. You can't sleep and breathe at the same time," Drake said. "It's a risk factor for developing major cardiovascular health effects."
Some people who have trouble sleeping will resort to mild sedatives like Ambien and Lunesta.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration recently asked the makers of these sedative-hypnotic drugs to strengthen their warning labels. This action followed reports of dangerous allergic reactions, as well as a host of bizarre behavioral side effects that include sleep-driving, making phone calls, and preparing and eating food or having sex while asleep.
Drake and Belenky both consider sleeping pills to be fine for the short term if taken properly.
"Sleeping pills are a temporary solution," Belenky said. "If you're upset about something or have situational insomnia, or you're trying to sleep at the wrong time of day because you've traveled across time zones, they are effective."
But, both doctors noted the pills will do nothing to help a chronic sleep problem. "They don't address the pathology of their sleeplessness," Drake said.
The U.S. National Institutes of Health offers these tips for getting a good night's sleep:
* Stick to a regular sleep schedule.
* Avoid exercising closer than five or six hours before bedtime.
* Avoid caffeine, nicotine and alcohol before bed.
* Avoid large meals and beverages late at night.
* Don't take naps after 3 p.m.
* Relax before bed, taking time to unwind with a hot bath, a good book or soothing music.
* If you're still awake after more than 20 minutes in bed, get up and do something relaxing until you feel sleepy. Anxiety over not being able to sleep can make it harder to fall asleep.
