My apologies for the tardiness of this edition! There’s been a lot going on the last few months. I’ll try to do better in getting these out more regularly.

This week I put together and launched a new website designed solely for prospecting based on the book, “Four Year Career” by Richard Bliss Brooke (see article below). If you’re not familiar with it I highly recommed it as a prospecting tool. Richard Bliss Brooke produced a 20 minute video dealing with the concepts discussed in the book. The site is very basic containing a short introduction of the four videos, the videos themselves and a contact form to send for additional information.
|
|
The idea is that anyone in my downline (or upline if I have their e-mail address) can give out this URL (web address) to prospects along with their name. When the prospect goes to the site they can view four short videos and, when they’re done, they’ll know if they have an interest in learning more about our business. They can either get back with the person who referred them or they can fill out the contact form, including the name of the person who referred them, and I’ll forward the form to the referring party when I receive it.This is all based on the idea that most people who reject our business don’t say, “no" to Youngevity, they say, “no" to network marketing. The videos on the site are generic and only speak to the power and credibility of the network marketing business model; they don’t address specific businesses and none are mentioned. I believe this will greatly increase our ability to attract qualified prospects with less effort.

Richard Bliss Brooke has authored what may very well be the ‘last prospecting tool you’ll ever need’! His new book, “The Four Year Career, How to Make Your Dreams of Fun and Financial Freedom Come True - or Not...” is a fantastic book that discusses the true business concept known as “network or multilevel marketing.” As I stated above, usually when people say, “no” to us they aren’t saying, “no” to Youngevity, they’re saying, “no” to the business model. They have many misconceptions as to what network marketing really is; many think of the term, “pyramid scheme” or some other incorrect idea of what networking is. This book does a wonderful job of dispelling all the myths and shows in a clear and concise manner exactly what network marketing is and how it works. It explains the concept of geometric progression and how massive incomes can be generated by developing an organization just five or six levels deep.

Another encouraging concept that is illustrated in the book is the idea of ‘business momentum.’ This is the fact that the most effort is required at start up and gets progressively easier as your group builds. The sad thing is that most people who quit do so just before momentum ‘kicks in’ and if they’d just stuck with it a little longer their businesses, and lives, would have been changed dramatically! What really makes this a great tool is that its very easy to read in a short time. When I first learned of it I went to Amazon and ordered the Kindle version for $2.97 and downloaded it to my iPad Mini and read it in one afternoon! I liked it so much I ordered a hard copy for $6.97. Shortly after that I found a recording of Tom Chenault, our Ambassador Distributor, on his radio program interviewing Richard Brooke about how they’re using the book as a prospecting tool. In short, you simply ask the person a few questions, hand them the book and ask them when you can get back with them to retrieve the book and answer any questions they might have. It’s that simple and Tom believes it’s going to revolutionize how he prospects! If you couple that with directing people to http://www.4yearplanb.com it should revolutionize your prospecting program too! Give it a try. You can buy multiple copies of the book here.

In January 2014 I set up a booth at the Columbus PrepperFest and took a stab at trade shows and expos. I was asked to be a featured speaker on "Nutrition Before and During a Disaster” and had a good size crowd and got a fair amount of business out of it! Show booth space can vary greatly in price with newer, less established shows being a good place to get your feet wet as they tend to charge less for space. You’ll want at least a 10x10ft booth (I my case we had two 6’ tables which worked fairly well).
|
|
There’s a .pdf download in the Team Member Resources section that goes over what to expect and how to run your booth. You’ll want to find shows that have a clientele who are more likely to be interested in natural health and supplementation. I wouldn’t recommend an AMA convention or a pharmaceutical show! Many communities are putting on holistic health shows for ‘alternative’ practioners to get exposure. Do a computer search for health shows in your area and you’re likely to find something you can be a part of. Make sure you have some help to staff your booth to allow for restroom breaks, lunch and checking out the rest of the show. I had a couple of my associates help out and they got a chance to hone their skills at discussing natural health and supplementation with people ‘cold.’ It’s a good experience and should help your business - I signed up a couple new reps and sold enough product to make it worthwhile - give it a try! Feel free to contact me with questions or suggestions!

…and yet another great addition to our Business!
|
|

On November 18, 2013 Youngevity announced the acquisition of Biometics, a unique line of liquid health products (see press release here). So far, I’ve tried the Cal/Mag 100. It’s economical, tastes good and I take it right before bed and I sleep like a baby!
|
|
“We are excited about the Biometics acquisition as we expect it will expand our presence in the nutritional supplement market,” said Steve Wallach, Chief Executive Officer of Youngevity International. “This represents Youngevity’s third strategic acquisition over the past two quarters of 2013 and we are well positioned to continue this growth going into 2014. We proudly welcome Biometics to our growing Youngevity family and we anticipate an enthusiastic response as we provide our distributors and customers with more high quality product and service offerings.”

Dr. Glidden had an awesome guest on his program on Tuesday, May 27th! Pharmacist Ben Fuchs of GCN fame, host of “The Bright Side” stopped by to visit. The interview was wonderful. Ben explained how it happened that even though he’s a registered pharmacist he seldom, if ever, recommends drugs to people. Instead, he shows folks how they can restore their health in a natural way without drugs or surgery! Ben was on during the first hour and the second hour was devoted to callers’ questions. Here’s the links to listen to the replay of this show: Hour #1 Hour #2

If the supplements don’t work it’s not the supplements, it the person taking them!
|
|
|
|
|

Many times I’ve had people say, “I tried the products and they didn’t work for me.” In many cases they never even opened them. In others, they took them sporadically and didn’t take the process seriously, or they didn’t take enough for their body weight. Many find it very difficult to change bad habits and stop eating the ten bad foods. Our society has been conditioned to expect everything to happen without any effort on their part - the “just take a pill” syndrome, as I like to refer to it. You must remember that healing is a journey, not an event - it doesn’t just happen, it takes place over time, through effort. On the ‘plus side,’ it gives you a great feeling of accomplishment when you succeed in reversing chronic health issues without drugs or surgery! The bottom line is that you have to look at this process as you would a science experiment. If you remember your 6th grade science you’ll recall that in any experiment you can have many ‘constants’ (things that don’t change), but only one variable (something that does change or fluctuate). In the Youngevity ‘experiment’ the only variable is the person taking the supplements! If they take the products properly, for their body weight and absent the ten bad foods - they will get results! If they don’t get results it’s not because the supplements ‘don’t work’; it’s because they did something wrong! If they have a bad reaction it’s most likely because their system is so messed up from years of eathing the wrong foods that it can’t handle concentrated nutrition. Making sure they’re 100% free of all ten bad foods and diluting the supplements more and taking them slowly over a longer period of time will usually clear things up. If they still have trouble I recommend a call to Dr. Wallach or Dr. Glidden on their programs (their numbers can be obtained at the GCN website link posted above in the grey panel). Never forget - you’ve got the Best Products on the Planet! They work every time they’re used properly. If you have someone tell you they don’t work (assuming they’ve tried them) politely suggest that they let you help figure out why they’re ‘not working’ and dig in to exactly what they’re doing, what they’re eating, how they’re taking them (dilution and time to take) and if they’re taking enough for their body weight. Sometimes it’s just a matter of them not taking them long enough (see the ‘just take a pill syndrome’ above). If they don’t want to do this they probably just want an excuse to stop - there’s not much you can do about that. When you come across someone who doesn’t want your help just move on; there’s plenty of people out there who do!

I really like this product, but I wouldn’t take it within a couple hours of eating as it effervesces when you mix it with water and could neutralize stomach acid.
