David Wood Talks Empower Network Ethics

This post was written on November 28,2011

When a business or program EXPLODES onto the scene like the Empower Network has, there are bound to be people who have negative things to say about it. Whether it is because they don't understand the system, believe it works, are using it as a "ploy" to get some attention, or just don't like the way the founders present themselves, these folks have decided to spend their time speaking negatively about the Empower Network.

So as a member of the Empower Network, I've decided to simply share with you some facts. As of this morning (November 28, 2011), the Empower Network had 9,329 members that had received $1,159,523.20 in commissions paid in just 4 weeks. There are companies that don't do that much in total sales in a couple of years, let alone pay out that much in commissions; and the Empower Network did it in 4 weeks. The beauty of it all, however, is that those commissions were paid to people from various different MLM and network marketing companies; some brand new to the industry, some with experience; and some that had never made a penny in this industry before.

Is the Empower Network perfect? No, but what program is (especially a new one)? The Empower Network is, however, a program founded on the belief of "empowering and lifting people up" in an ethical manner. Watch THIS VIDEO to to hear Empower Network Co-Founder David Wood discuss why he created the Empower Network, as well as everything from being ethical and doing things the right way; having the right attitude; a few issues he's dealt with; and the current "upgrade promo" and new product coming soon.

Don't Be Afraid to Dance!

As a member of the Empower Network's "Inner Circle" I have access to some great audio training calls done by David Wood and David Sharpe leading up to the launch of the Empower Network.  There is so much information contained in each recording that every time I've listened to them I've been able to pull some more information out that is beneficial to my team and me.  To listen to David Wood and David Sharpe speak about their experiences can't help but motivate you, even if you are already doing well, to do even better.  The more you listen to them, the more you understand how much they truly want to help everyone be successful and why they created the Empower Network!  So what does that have to do with dancing?

Before I tell you, go to http://www.antoniomooreempowernet.com and join the Empower Network and answer the question of how 100% commissions can help you!

Now to continue, I was listening to a segment today (again) where David Sharpe discusses how over 99% of people are so self-absorbed that they can't see past themselves; but once they realize that "it's not all about them" their lives will change.  He proceeds to tell a story about how he used to go to this "dance club" and would put on a fresh outfit so that he could be cool, looking good and "comfortable" in his own skin.  However, he would stand around and watch people dance and even though he thought it "looked fun," he wouldn't go out on the dance floor.   Why? Fear.  He didn't want to be laughed at.  He was so self-absorbed that he thought everyone would be paying attention to him and laugh and reject him, so he stood on the sidelines.  At some point he figured out that a lot of other people were just as self-absorbed as him and were thinking the same thing!  He then had an "epiphany" and realized that it wasn't about him, which resulted in him being able to let loose, have fun, dance, and have a good time!  He was able to overcome the fear of rejection and no longer worried about what other people would think.

That fear of rejection is what plagues many people in the network marketing industry today.  David Sharpe finally took a "leap of faith" and went out on the dance floor.  He then took this same principle and applied it to all aspects of his life, including his business.  Having faith gave him confidence and relieved the anxiety he had of doing business presentations.  He took the risk and started doing webinars and conference calls and guess what?  People actually showed up and kept showing up!  He actually "bombed" his first few presentations, but was able to develop his skill of overcoming fear and started applying other information into his presentations to make them successful.

The moral of this story is "Don’t Be Afraid to Dance!"  Take the leap of faith and get out on the dance floor.  Nobody cares and if you do your thing, they may even just respect you for taking the risk.  Whatever your "dance floor" is, just go for it.  If you bomb or fail the first time, just keep at it and don't quit.  Success in your business takes staying in the game, having a vision, having a dream, and sticking to it!

It Makes Business Sense

I connect with a number of people in the network marketing industry on a daily basis.  Some are struggling network marketers or business people I am trying to help or assist in some way; some are "successful" and we often share stories or bounce ideas off of one another; and others are just cool people I know that I have (or am building) relationships with.  It's great to be able to connect with people from all over the world, that come from all walks of life, and are all a part of this network marketing industry.

In my conversations I have found that many people have never run any kind of business on their own, let alone a successful one, before getting into network marketing; and maybe that explains the lack of "business savvy" that many network marketers have, which definitely contributes to the industry's high "failure" rate.  That is not to suggest that a person cannot be successful with network marketing as their first business venture; nor does it mean that someone that was successful in business elsewhere will automatically be successful in network marketing.  It simply means that maybe we shouldn't be surprised by some of the decisions that are made (or not made) by our fellow network marketers.

There are so many network marketing companies to chose from and quite often we see people who are "struggling" bounce around from business to business hoping the next opportunity will be "the one" that is going to make them rich!  Obviously there are a number of reasons why someone leaves one opportunity for another, but in network marketing it is more often than not related to money.  In fact, money is the reason that many people quit the entire network marketing industry.  People don't make enough money and they don't make it fast enough, so they quit.  The reality is, however, that most network marketing company compensation plans are not designed for you to make a lot of money quickly and be able to sustain it over a long period of time.  You may be with a very good company, but you know that it is going to take you 3, 6, 12, 24, 36 or even more months to really start seeing significant income.  So what do you do in the meantime?  For many, that means staying broke, getting frustrated, and being bitter while they wait for the time to come when their commission checks reach a level of significance.  But not for members of the Empower Network!

The Empower Network pays 100% commissions directly into its members' bank accounts.  What does that mean? It means you keep all the money!  It means that you break-even with the very first person you share the information with who decides to join!  It means that you don't have to wait for commission checks because they are deposited instantly into your bank account!  It means that you now have an immediate flow of cash to pull from to put back into marketing and advertising your primary business, allowing you to build it faster!  It means that you are finally in control of your success!

That's what 100% commissions means and if you don't have it, you need to get it!  It makes business sense!  Find out why approximately $400,000 in commissions has been paid out to members in just 6 days.  Don't you work hard on your business and deserve some of that?  Go to http://www.antoniomooreempowernet.com and make the decision to "get empowered" today!

I look forward to welcoming you to the Empower Network!

Five Questions...Or Is It?

It has been a very busy week, so I'm going to keep this short and sweet for you!

How would you benefit.....

  -if your current biz opportunity paid 100% commissions directly deposited into your bank account?

  -if you had profits to put into your marketing and advertising efforts for your primary biz opportunity?

  -if you had traffic from a viral blogging platform, SEO optimized, to give you maximum exposure?

  -if you had direct access to training from some of the top network marketers in the industry today?

 and

  -if your current biz opportunity paid 100% commissions directly deposited into your bank account?

Most people in the network marketing industry would benefit greatly if they had at least one or two of these four things (I hope you noticed the first and the last are the same :0).  The reality is that most don't have any, let alone all four.  As of October 31, 2011, however, the reality is NOW that you can if you want to.  There are no more excuses, the opportunity is here.  YOU simply just have to choose whether you want to benefit or not.  Just visit http://www.antoniomooreempowernet.com and make the decision.  The choice is yours.

I look forward to welcoming you to the Empower Network!

NETWORKING in Network Marketing

Network marketing is ultimately about "networking" and although a distinction can be made between business and social networking, the reality is that the explosion of social media has intertwined the two to the point where it is very difficult to separate them, especially online.  To become part of the roughly 3%-5% of successful network marketers, you must understand networking.

So what is "networking?"  In the context of network marketing, it is simply connecting with people and building relationships for a purpose.  Although the reasons may vary, the core component of networking is people and building relationships with them.  Therefore, in order to be successful in network marketing you must focus on people.  Whether it's online, on the phone, or in person, you must not be afraid to build relationships and interact with others.  In fact, that's where the majority of your time should be spent.

Personally, I like to help others and that is my primary purpose for networking online and offline.  When building relationships, I focus on the value that I can bring to the table without worrying about whether I will ultimately get something back in return.  I learned a long time ago that the more value I bring to my relationships, the stronger and longer-lasting they will be.  That's why I am constantly investing in myself and urging others to do the same.  The more knowledge you have, the better equipped you are to provide solutions to people because you are better able to understand what they want and how to help them.

So what is your purpose and approach to networking?  Are you spending your time building relationships with people and investing in yourself so that you are bringing value to the conversations?  These are questions that you should definitely take some time to think about if you are serious about your long-term business success.

Have a blessed and productive day!

Make Money When Prospects Say "NO" To Your Business Opportunity!

"Multiple streams of income" is a topic that is discussed quite often in the network marketing industry.  The unfortunate reality, however, is that many network marketers do not really have significant multiple income streams.  Just for clarification, I'm not referring to the number of ways you can be paid based on your company's compensation structure.  I'm talking about additional income from sources external to your primary business.

We often hear the statistic that 9 out of 10 network marketers fail or don't make significant income in this industry (or some similar statistic); and one of the primary reasons for this "failure" is that people quit before they make any money.  Many people have false expectations as to how long it is going to take for them to build their business and start making significant income.  Even if you are a great marketer with a great marketing system (which most are not) it is still going to take some time to build a successful long-term operation.  Therefore, it is imperative to learn how to generate multiple streams of income without having to take the time necessary to build multiple businesses.  Welcome to affiliate marketing!

Affiliate marketing allows you to be compensated for selling another company's products or services.  There are many companies, including Google and Amazon, that offer these programs and they can be very lucrative if utilized appropriately.  Affiliate marketing sales allow you to earn money right away and the goal of many network marketers is to use those funds for advertising; however many also end up making much more than advertising funds!  Most people (again, quoted statistics are usually in the 90-95% range) will say "NO" to your business opportunity, so why not give them an option to purchase other products or services that may be able to benefit them in whatever business they are in; and get paid for it!  Your time is very valuable and how you manage your time is vital to your business success; therefore, your goal should be to get involved with affiliate programs that work seamlessly with your current marketing strategies (assuming they are good).  If your marketing efforts are generating a lot of targeted traffic to your website and the only choice for the network marketers who land on it is whether to join your business or not, then you are missing the boat!  Most network marketers are not seeing the success they want, so they are constantly looking for products and services to help them.  Why not offer them the opportunity to purchase proven products, services, tools and resources from your website that they are probably already looking for anyway (more so than your business opportunity)?  Although getting paid on their purchase is great, that's not even the most significant part of the transaction.  More importantly, it allows you to help out anyone regardless of what company they are with; and most importantly, it provides you with the perfect opportunity to start building a relationship with that person and relationships will always be a very important element to long-term business success.

There are many affiliate marketing programs out there and they are not all created equal, so be sure to do your due diligence before getting involved in one.  Being a successful affiliate marketer still requires you to be able to market, which is why having the right marketing system is necessary.  I'm not going to do a breakdown of marketing systems, but the best network marketing systems are those that teach you how to brand yourself and attract prospects which effectively results in targeted leads seeking you out to do business and work with you.  If your current marketing system is not focused on these two things then you are probably on your way to being part of the 9 out of 10 mentioned previously.  If you are a serious network marketer with a long-term goal of success, then you must take advantage of affiliate marketing.  Click here, www.antoniomoorepronet.com, for a FREE presentation on taking your business to the next level with an advanced system for achieving long-term success; and you don't even have to have your own website to utilize it!

How are you using IBOtoolbox?

I have a simple question for members of IBOtoolbox, how are you utilizing the IBO platform?  I'd love to hear your thoughts and comments!

For those that don't know, IBOtoolbox is a business platform that provides its members with an opportunity to network with other professionals while also proving them with a FREE suite of tools to help members market and promote their respective businesses.  Paul Williams is the creator of this dynamic web application  and he is constantly looking at ways to improve on an already great platform.  In fact, he makes himself available at least two times a week to do training and Q&A Webinars for the members.  At the time of this writing, IBO is approaching 100,000 daily visitors.  Obviously it's no Facebook (yet) in terms of traffic numbers, but this is targeted traffic which is very important to anyone trying to build or grow a business.  If you are a business owner, but not a member of IBO you should definitely check it out (http://www.ibourl.com/eyr).

Now back to my question for members.  We know that the IBO platform offers a lot and its potential is huge; but how are you utilizing it?  Do you spend all of your time promoting your business trying to get others to join? Do you actually network and connect with other members and share tips, ideas, and suggestions freely without expecting them to join your business or give you something else in return?  Do you spend any time actually promoting IBO and the platform in general?

This post will also be located at http://www.ibourl.com/eyr, so please feel free to share your thoughts and comments about IBO there as  well!

Marketing FOCUS

As business owners we must be very disciplined as we go about our days because there are many distractions that can prevent us from achieving our short and long-term goals.  One of those potential distractions is tough for many network marketers to deal with because it is also the very thing that determines their success....marketing.  How you market is what determines your long-term success in business and there is a clear difference in how successful network marketers market when compared to those that are unsuccessful (which unfortunately is the majority).

There are many different ways to market your business, but the key is to be focused and stay consistent.  Successful marketing starts with your mindset.  You have to be positive and understand that it may take some time to see results.  When first starting out it is also best to start with a marketing strategy that compliments your strengths.  Additionally, another best practice is to "master" a particular type of marketing strategy before moving on to others.  "Mastering" a strategy doesn't mean the same thing for everyone, so having clear goals outlined ahead of time is also very important.  The point is that being "all over the place" with your online marketing, especially when first starting out, is too much of an "information overload" for most people to handle.  Some can't handle it after years of experience.  The key here is to go at your own pace and really focus on learning and understanding what you are doing in order to achieve results before trying to figure out something else.

There is an art and a science to effective marketing and understanding that will pay dividends in the long run.  Most success does not come overnight, so it's imperative that you stay focused and continue to educate yourself and invest in your success.  I work with serious network marketers looking for the tools, resources, and guidance to build their businesses; as well as "newbies" just getting started in the online, network marketing, and home-based business industry.  If you'd like to discuss effective marketing in detail in order to get your business on the right track and/or if you would like some FREE resources to help you build your business, just contact me.

One24 - The Sweepstakes!

When you think it's as good as it gets, One24 just keeps getting better!  Last night One24 founder Mark Seyforth announced yet another enhancement to the already REVOLUTIONARY One24 program!  Over the last few months, One24 has introduced a number of enhancements to an already unique, brilliant, and amazing company concept and compensation structure; but last night, it was taken to ANOTHER LEVEL!

One24 has just announced a "Sweepstakes" that is giving anyone that just takes the time to look at One24, the opportunity to win $25,000!  That's it!  No obligation to join, no cost, not anything but taking the time to look at an opportunity that could change your life!  All you have to do is visit the website, www.wealth-4-life.com, watch the videos and get on the waiting list to enter the sweepstakes.  How easy is that?

The $25,000 drawing will be held every month starting December 2011 and the winner may be announced on a national television program or via the Internet (more details forthcoming).  Regardless, here is a FREE chance for you to win $25,000.  All current One24 PCs (members) are automatically eligible for the drawing and anyone on the waiting lists will also be eligible.  However, due to the EXPLOSION of One24 and the fact that this "Sweepstakes" will no doubt magnify that explosion exponentially, the company will be implementing a maximum cap on the number of people One24 PCs will be allowed to have on their waiting lists!  Therefore, you must act NOW if you want to secure your spot and your chance to win $25,000 in the monthly drawings.

Maybe now you are starting realize just how amazing One24 is!  Based on the principle of "people helping people" it has already revolutionized the network marketing industry with the first ever linear IRP ("Incentivized Referral Plan") compensation plan that allows you to get paid on everyone that joins the company after you (whether you personally bring them in or not) to the point that other companies are already trying to copy it in some way shape or form!  Being a One24 PC allows you the opportunity to build towards making up to $200,000/month ($100K in green income and $100K in Gold, see previous posts) within the next 2 years as long as you stay in it; and now the "Sweepstakes" is giving One24 PCs a monthly opportunity to make an additional $25K and offering non One24 PCs the same opportunity as long as they take the time to watch the One24 videos.  Again, all you have to do is visit www.wealth-4-life.com, watch the videos and get on the waiting list to enter!

Don't be like those naysayers who didn't take advantage of getting involved with some of today's most valuable companies early on; such as the guy who had an opportunity to buy Google for 1M, but didn't only to see Google explode and today have a market value near $200B; or the Texas business man who could have bought Microsoft for $60M but only wanted to pay $15M, and subsequently watched Microsoft's market value peak around $600B (1999) and today is still valued over $200B; or how about a couple of
of computer companies that said "NO" to funding Apple, which now has a market value over $350 Billion!  I wont even discuss the number of people who missed out on opportunities to have stock or be a part of companies like Exxon, Wal-Mart, IBM, Coca-Cola, etc.!  Here is YOUR OPPORTUNITY to get involved with a great company at the ground level before it goes viral and before it goes international (very soon)!  Visit the website (www.wealth-4-life.com), watch the videos and pay attention to the opportunity presented and get on the waiting list!  At the very least you will have a chance to win $25K in our monthly sweepstakes.  At the most, you will recognize a great opportunity to get on the road to retirement and secure a future with financial freedom, security, and prosperity!
