Wealth Masters International

Okay, so you are wondering what is Wealth Masters International? Well it is a private wealth group that Gordon and I belong to. We are, right now as I am writing this sitting in the Dominican Republic with our private wealth group. Meeting with people just like us from around the entire globe! We are people that are looking for a better world. We are willing to work for the change and be the change that we want to see. We are learning how to create wealth and to not only create it but to take care of it our self. To learn ways to make that wealth grow. It seems to be working for us. We came here to paradise, someplace that everyone wants to be so we are enjoying our surroundings. We are in some pretty great company with some wonderful people......no that is not right, they are not just "people" they are our FRIENDS. This group is so powerful because of the support that we receive. Now, how is this Wealth Masters group helping us to grow our wealth? Well, I just about 5 minutes ago won a rare, gold 1907 liberty dollar. All I did was put a piece of paper in a drawing and now my wealth has increased. Things like this change a persons life in ways that some can only imagine. I used to imagine that change and now I am experiencing it and it is absolutely amazing.

How do you Measure up??

So how do you measure up? What size of a persona re you? Not physically but mentally. Really, how do you measure up? You want to know what I mean don't you?

Measuring ones own self is something that is not easily done. We have in our minds what we are perceived to be but in reality it might not even hit the mark.

Life is full of challenges, struggles, hardships and it also has the flip side that is all positive but that isn't what we are talking about here. In positive times you do find a measure of you self and how you would handle situations. When the negative comes into your life and the chips are down that is when you find out the true measure of you self.

What types of mountain do you build in your own life? Did you bring you self to the space you are in right now or do you thin that there are contributing factors outside of youself? Maybe it is nono of you own doing that finds you in a difficult position........hard to take credit for something that isn't so good??

I am here to tell you that you are where you are from the choices you have made in the past. Don't look over your shoulder looking for someone to blame, just look in the mirror.

Now that we have that established, lets see what we can do to change things a little bit.

Your problem is only 4 inches long.....Now that doesn't dound to bad does it? Do you want to know where the 4 inches are? Your're right....it's between your ears.

We have all been given gifts and the people that really measure up have figured out their gifts and they use it to their full potential. Everything you need is already inside of you.

A person that measures up is someone who see's their problems for what they are, in their true form.

A persom that measures up is someone who does not make their problems seem worse than they are.

A person who measures up is someone who makes their problems seem better than what they are.

A person is measured by the size of the problem that stops them. When you hit a small bump in the road and feel like quitting just thing what it would be like to encounter quick sand. IF YOU QUIT WHEN THE QUICK SAND HAS YOU STUCK, GUESS WHAT? YOU WILL SINK TO THE BOTTOM.

When the challenge is difficult, that is the time to put up your "dukes" and come out fighting. When it really gets tough you have to to know that the outcome is going to be something worth waiting for. There is definately a serious storm before any calm. So gather your "crew" and plant your feet firmly, keep your fist tight and don't let go no matter what. There is usually a hand outstretched for us in the darkness, it is just hand to see where to reach for that hand. Follow your heart, be strong and ready to fight, don't let your fears stop you. When you are out of your comfort zone you have the most potential for growth, so feel the fear and do it anyway!

Serious incomes with top tier opportunities

Serious incomes with Top Tier opportunities

I will guess that you a a networker who is experienced and knows what they are doing.

You have good communication skills and know how to talk on the phone. You work on your business everyday and you know advertising. You have a team that you lead.

Is that working for you?

If it is great for you, but if it isn't you are not alone

Do you have that new Mercedes and are you flying first class? Are you taking a limo to the convention or a taxi? How about the big checks?

Probably not, right? That is because you are working a 2nd tier company that doesn't pay as much for the same amount of time. The people you are attracting to this company are only looking for $500 to $2,000 extra dollars a month and want to do their business VERY part time.

We all have the same amount of hours in a day so why not take them and use them in a business that pays out big and doesn't require any extra time?

You become as successful as the people you surround yourself with. Why would you want to work with people who have their goals set so low? Why not surround yourself with people that truly want the life of luxury?

I know that me and my partners got into this industry to earn a stable income that can be as much as we want it to be and yet we are faced with the fact that MLM isn't what it used to be.

So if the GPT model makes sense to you......

If you are ready to run a business that will allow you to make tens of thousands of dollars per month withing weeks or months instead of years without the risks or problems of a down line. Then I would like to invite you to check us out at http://www.shellithompson.com/ and leave your contact information so someone can get with you and answer your questions so you can make the decision for yourself if this business is right for you.

Top Tier, what is this all about??

"Top Tier" opportunities, what is this all about???

Sounds Expensive!

One of the common statements regarding "top tier" opportunities is that the start-up costs are "too high"

I want to tell you that actually they are much less than a traditional supplement based MLM. The average start-up cost and monthly auto-ship order for a traditional MLM is about $200 to $300 dollars. That comes out to $2500 plus a year when you factor in taxes and shipping. (that's the low end). In the company we were involved in we had monthly overhead of $500 per month so that is more like $6,000 dollars.

A Top Tier program is usually a one time expense.

By the time you have hit your third year in MLM, you have spent over $7,500 in vitamins or what ever product you sell. In our case after 3 years it would look more like $18,000.

Wow, look how much we would spend if we were into this company for 7 years, HOLY SMOKES that would be $42,000 dollars and I have to ask is that more than we are going to make? The checks don't seem to be big enough to add up to that!!

After 7 years in a Top Tier company after seven years would have never gone past the average $1,500 cost of the product or service. Some of these companies are more and some are less depending on what is being offered.

there is another benefit to Top Tier programs. It is not obvious to you at first but it is something that you will notice and appreciate before to long and that is.......

You work with Experienced peers and keep your business FUN!

Are you to a point in your MLM company where you just feel burnt out working with so many different people who are brand new to the industry? These are the ones who "claim" they want to be financially free but but as soon as you start talking about the amount to start up, they start making excuses about why it isn't right for them. The excuses don't make very much sense to you and you know that they want to make money without an investment in time or currency and we all know how well that works......

Is your down line a group of people who blame you for the fact that they bought a website and some product but aren't rich yet?

Or has the FUN been stripped from your work at home dream because all you do is spend your time dealing with whiners, excuse makers and people with complaints? Are you tired of holding hands with your down line to help them through the "dark times"?

One perk of a Top Tier is that it attracts Top Tier People

You know, the ones that think like you do.

Who you work with is completely up to you, so why not work with the highest caliber of people possible:

Peers! Professionals! Doers! People who make things happen, not excuses.

It makes all the difference in the world when you get to spend your time recruiting and working with people who are just like you. The Top Tier people that you will get involved with LOVE this industry, and they don't need any convincing.

these people already know an investment is required and have no problem because they are true entrepreneurs.

To Tier opportunities attract this type of person because the initial start-up cost scares away the "tire-kickers" and people that want to waste your time.

WOULD YOU LIKE TO WORK WITH JUST EXPERIENCED ENTREPRENEURS?

People that don't wine and complain, constantly making excuses for why they don't succeed and one of the reasons are often YOU. People that don't need their hand held 24/7.

Would you like to work with peers who speak and build with self confidence?

People who don't "need" money or want you to "save them", but with people who have a proven track record of success and who want a better lifestyle and a better vehicle to invest their time, money and efforts into?

In a top tier opportunity you don't have to work with thousands of people to make incredible money

YOU ONLY NEED TO WORK WITH A HANDFUL!

I can tell you all about what you need to do. Go to
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2pEYbl3wz7o and I will tell you all about it.

Top Tier opportunities pay out serious incomes, They also attract people who like to make serious money. Are you somebody like that?

You want to be experienced right?

Do you want to know how to advertise?

Top tier Opportunities

Top Tier Opportunities

Because of the more qualified people that these companies attract we call them "top tier" and of course they can produce high-level incomes compared to MLM companies.

Many of these companies retail products that are in the $1,500 to $2,000 range and pay out a $1,000 plus commission up front for any product or service that is sold.

So Where's the "residual" income?

Like I said in the past that a thousand dollars today is worth more than a thousand dollars spread out in smaller increments over a period of time. And the reason being is that you can do something with that thousand you get today. you have to wait until the money is worth less to get paid over time. This means that you get paid a years worth of wages at once and quickly, we all know that this is better in the long run. The person that purchases your product and finds it beneficial will most likely either buy from you again or become a member of your team. Regardless you get paid if this person builds a business or not. In MLM you are counting on a complete stranger to build a business so that yours can do well.

How big of a team would you need to get in order to make $5,000 a month in a MLM company?

400?, 600?, 1700? 3,000?

Any number could be close but then you need to double that number because 50% of the people you prospect are going to drop out in the first 3 months.

Remember, this is the age of the bigger, better product, juice, service. What happens if one of your leaders with a large following leaves for that new ground floor opportunity? And their team leaves with them?

We know how difficult it can be to work part time to replace a full time income but that is what MLM is selling. Not many people will go on to build an organization of 400 or more and that is what you are counting on (from a complete stranger).

In a "top tier" company how many customers do you think you would need to make say $4,000 per month?

3 to 4

To make $48,000 per year you only need one customer per week? Yes, that's right and that doesn't even take into account the actual compensation plan which could multiply that figure by 10 times with just one new customer per week. You can find out more about Carbon Copy Pro at http://www.shellithompson.com/

The great thing about GPT is that there is no disappearing act with the down line or sales that dip in volume. At the very least the money you make can be put where you can get interest on it for a year or three. On the "slow boat" over time method you aren't going to get any interest where that money is coming from.

Would you like to find out more about these "top tier" companies???

Are start up cost High?

What to do now

What to do?

That's the Million Dollar Question.

Like I said before, there are no right or wrong answers. I depends on what you want personally out of your business. Are you willing to deal with an MLM and all of good and bad that comes along with it?

If you would enjoy building a new business with new products once every year or two, then MLM is for you. There is LOTS of money to made right now in MLM. The only problem is that your residual income is not going to last as long as you think it is and attrition will attack and your business will shrink as quickly as you got it off the ground running.

My Husband and I have decided that type of "ride" has no appeal to us because we have cut through the hype and come to a conclusion, and that is no matter what company we build, if it is an MLM company we are going to face all of the challenges you have read about in my previous blogs. The industry has changed over the past 5 years and there is no new ground floor opportunity company or any compensation plan that can fix it.

Besides the rare 1 in a 1,000 exception the promise of life-long residual income has disappeared. MLM for the most part has turned into a business of "quick-turn" greed driven building, hype. Only the true, very skilled professional multilevel marketer has a chance to make any significant amount of money.

We are tired of the back stabbing, attrition, and jumping from one company to the next attitude. We are tired of trying to explain why our company is better than the other. Dealing with people who think that $400.00 is to much money to start a company. These are the individuals that have never owned their own company, they have a JOB (Just Over Broke).

It is just not worth our time, it is not fun and we don't enjoy it. If we wanted to UN-ENJOY what we did we would get a J.O.B.

GPT

Okay, so this is our secret, GPT. It is becoming the quickest solution for the challenges facing networking in the internet age. Okay, so what is GPT? It stands for Get Paid Today. This is a concept that summarizes the change of focus in the MLM industry from a long-tern residual income, to immediate leveraged income. The reason that this is gaining momentum is because the money we earn and receive now is more valuable in the long run than money you will get in the future. The reason for that is the money you earn today and receive can be put to work for you so that you actually make money off of the original money while you continue to make more.THAT SOUNDS REALLY GOOD TO US!!

The promise of Get paid Today is simple:

If Networkers are going to move from company to company. If competetors are going to advertise on your front porch with a better or cheaper product, and if the cost of sponsoring a new networker continues to soar, then the answer is simple:

Get paid a year of more worth of residuals on day one no matter what happens.

This is the age of the internet, distributors come and go quickly so Get Paid Today

Opportunities that are "bigger and better" come around several times a year taking a piece of your "down line" with it, so Get Paid Today

Money is worth more in your pocket today than it is next year, so Get Paid Today and invest that cash into real residual income streams outside MLM.

With advertising and sponsoring cost sky rocketing, Get Paid a year of more of residual intome Today, instead ow waiting for $20.00 commission checks to come in over months or years.

Many of the network marketers today are employee minded people that just think they are entrepreneurs, which means they will rarely do what it takes to be successful, so Get Paid Today for your time and training wether they build a business or not.

Professionals aren't interested in working 3 to 4 hours extra per day selling vitamins or a juice drink for a $500 -$1,000 paycheck, so offer them a vehicle that they can Get Paid Today and realisitcally make $10,000 per month with just 5 to 10 customers a month.

Building a MLM that pays out $10,000 per month requires building a downline of thousands of people. Get paid Today and make $10,000 with just 10 customers per month or less.

Can you see how profound this concept is in the MLM Environment? How it solves all of the problems network marketers are facing?

The average person who dreams of working from home now have a realisic way of achieving that dream

GPT models are found in "top Tier" opportunities

What is a "top Tier" company?

How does a person learn more about GPT?

Protection from the internet is gone, it took your residual income with it.

Protection from the Internet is gone and it took your residual income with it.

Before the Internet, organizations and companies were able to fly under the radar which shielded them from this onslaught of people, opinions competitors and ads.

That protection allowed relationships to be build, skills to be learned and loyalties to be strengthened.

But the Internet destroyed that in short order

You have built a fairly large organization. You think you've finally found that "residual" income that you have sought.

You are making about $25,000 per month, you quit your job 6 months ago, bought a new house, a boat and a new car, and paid off all of your debt

Everything is great!

Then one day, the company tweaks their compensation plan just a little bit.....

One of your leaders is NOT happy about it. They decide to move to another company, and with one click, with one single email up-line, down-line and across line and he basically destroys dozens of people's businesses.

The income you're relying on to pay the mortgage, invest for retirement, and put your kids through school literally vanishes overnight.

It's a sobering thought when you realize that your lively-hood in an MLM business is completely dependent upon strangers you've never met before.

You have no idea what their plans are or what their life is like. You simply cannot earn a full-time living on your own personal efforts with an MLM compensation plan. It's not designed that way, you need many people to help you with that, those are the ones you don't know.

This wasn't a problem in the past, but it is today.

The Internet is a tool that allows communications at a level that has never been seen by the world before, where opinions, rumors, ads and scams can now spread across the world faster than you can turn around.

With one well placed negative opinion reported on the Internet massive amounts of money can be lost for a company.

Down lines can be destroyed overnight by false rumors or leaders who jump ship.

This is where the world of the Pre-launch comes in. Ready to promise a better product or compensation plan and the ability to get in "on the ground floor opportunity"

Competitors adds can be ran on the very door step of a company's search engine results.

And there is nothing that you can do about it

But there is something for your down line to do about it. They have an endless supply of new companies and products so all they need to do is feel a little frustrated or un-successful and they can open up on their email the next biggest and best company and get in on the ground floor, and before you know it Houdini has been there and they disappear faster than a rabbit in a hat.

Thanks to the Internet networkers are only as loyal as their options and their options are endless, there need not be any long term commitments.

There is no going back the Internet is here to stay, if you are a leader in the industry you know this to be true.

The cost of sponsoring a new rep in the cold market continues to go upward, while the actual return and "life time value" of that rep continues to go down.

We are faced with the fact that.....

Full page ads in an industry magazine that cost $500 eight years ago, now costs $3,000.

Email marketing is dead, and the ability to advertise in a massive, targeted, and affordable way died with it.

due to the constant attrition that you will experience you will be forced to recruit everyday for the lifespan of your business.

To the white collar business professional who has a hard time seeing how they are going to replace a six figure income peddling vitamins and fruit juice the MLM business just doesn't look that appealing.

The problem of multiple systems for marketing within any given company, and promises to be the next big thing makes it hard to train your team in a duplicatable manor.

Instead of focusing on developing personal skills and working a single system the "newby" tries something for a few weeks and then goes on to the next best marketing idea.

SO NOW WHAT????

THAT IS A GOOD QUESTIONS ISN'T IT?

THERE IS NO WRONG OR RIGHT ANSWER, IT REALLY COMES DOWN TO WHAT IS RIGHT FOR YOU.

STAY TUNED

The age of Internet & Marketing

The painful Truth
If you are looking for more freedom in life and want to be financially carefree and you are looking to do this from home with a MLM Company you are in for a rude awakening.

My questions to you:
Do you have to constantly feed the top while "associates" fall out the holes in the bottom?
Are your "associates" duplicating your efforts?
Are you tired of working your tail off and you feel like you should be making ten times more for your efforts?
Do you "baby-sit" your down line?
You are not alone!
Do you like filling a leaking bucket? because that can be what it feels like when you are trying to build a down line.

Right now it is a struggle in network marketing, where people leave as fast as they join. They are always looking for the newer, bigger, better company to join.

We joined a MLM based on the product (thankfully) because it gave many benefits to important people in our life. The company seemed pretty sound and had a CEO that seemed to have things together and endorsements that were impressive. The leadership seemed sincere and within the first year those same leaders at corporate levels tried a "hostile take over" that for the most part soiled the name of the company and now there are law suites and basically it feels that the entire nature of the company has changed. I call these people and people like them the "MLM WHORES". They are in the top echelon of the MLM industry. They have huge followers willing to follow anywhere. At the drop of a hat they do and have left many of these companies in ruin.

The idea of network marketing has been based on the idea of working 4 to 7 years to build a life long, residual income that can be left to your family.

That sounds great!

Not really true anymore

Let me tell you why.

Network Marketers have become obsessed with pre-launches, the timing of the launch and what the next big "thing" is going to be.

The number of new company start ups is now drastically out of proportion with the new people coming into MLM each year.

There are only so many "warm bodies" to go around.

This is the world of the Pre-Launch. A pre-launch is a company's only chance to catch new or existing networkers and romance them away from their current company's with exciting new compensation plans and promotions and promises of being in on the "ground floor" This new company promises to be the the biggest and best with their new patented product that will change the world as we know it. Networkers tend to flock to the new company in an attempt to get in at the top. If they don't, that's okay because a new and better MLM will launch in about 9 to 13 months, and when it does the people at the bottom of the previous company will move to the new MLM company leaving a wake of destruction in the downlines of their old company from the bottom up in the process.

MAKE NO MISTAKE ABOUT IT...IN NETWORK MARKETING, PEOPLE ARE THE COMMODITY THAT IS TRADED AND YOU ARE VERY VALUABLE

Let me tell you about a couple of Entrepreneurs

Let me tell you about a couple of Entrepreneurs threw off the "shackles" and left their old careers behind.....FOREVER. And even better we are doing something fun and exciting that we love doing.


My husband and I have lived a good life. Spending a major part of our life in our careers and being very successful. The hours were horrendous, we were compensated well but was it worth all of that time?


We deal with a lot of supposedly successful people every day.. Some are customers, some suppliers, some are friends and others just run in the same social circles as we do but there seems to be one common trait. It is something that we don't talk about very much. And that is that it can be HELL working for somebody else. You put in 10, 20, 30 years of your life working away to help someone else accomplish their dreams. You can be let go at any time and that is what you get for your loyalty. Many retirements have been cut in recent years or have gone away completely. Having your own "brick and mortar" business can be hell just the same. It's hard to find good employees and when you do find them; they don't come cheap. They could leave at any time and you would be stuck with all of the work. Maybe you don't know how that work was performed! (ouch). When you own a brick & mortar, the business at some point takes over your life. When that happens, things need to change, because your are no longer in control. We started looking online and have discovered a new way to do business.
The internet is the new "gold rush" but only much more profitable

I went online and started researching money making opportunities. And no, I was never one for network marketing, or MLM companies. I always had a "real" job, making real money. Most of the "opportunities" I found were time wasters at best and outright scams at worst. I started to search deeper and uncovered with my due diligence some real verifiable success stories. They were real people making money on line and they were willing to talk to me. I found out there are more millionaires created by the internet in the last 5 years than in the total history of mankind. That's pretty powerful, and caught my attention. When I started looking at these new millionairs I found out they were pretty "fresh behind the ears" because many of them are under 30 years old!

Internet millionaires make their own money running their own businesses

None of these successful young entrepreneurs made their fortunes in the fortune 500. They all started home based businesses and had big visions and worked their businesses with their big visions. I kept up my research, looking harder and turning over stones and realized that this was for real. Sure there are scams everywhere, not just on the internet. There are a few legitimate home based network marketing businesses that could produce verifiable results. The results were what amazed me. I never, even in my best year made $143,715 profit in one month, on line that happens frequently.

These new internet superstars have completely turned the old school approach to network marketing on it's head. One of the reasons some of them are so successful is because they got tired of being told how to do things the wrong way.

I am working less now than I have in years, having fun doing what I am doing. Building a community of new friends and business associates that are doing exactly what I am doing. That's good because I like to travel and go on really nice vacations and I know all of my associates will have the time and the money to go and see some really cool places with me.
