******************************************************
WARNING: This message contains the grumbles and groans
of someone obsessed with helping you succeed. Please
be aware that your own effort will be required also to
ensure your success. If you are already putting in
the effort, it has been noticed. The "grumpy" bits
are not for you.
WARNING 2: I am serious. There are some seriously
"grumpy" bits in this message.
WARNING 3: Stop chuckling. I'm not kidding.
******************************************************
NOTE 1: If we have placed you under someone, or you are sponsored by someone
else, ask THEM for help as well. They are there to help, too.
NOTE 2: A reminder; TNI welcomes ANY questions as well. They provide either a
freecall or local-call-cost-only line to allow you access to them. Make use of
TNI because they provide this service to you for you.
NOTE 3: Don't get confused by the grumbling below. I would NEVER purposely
belittle or attack anyone...EVER. We are here to help, but few take us up on
our offers.
NOTE 4: Let me get this out of my system and off my chest, then let's all get
stuck into building a monolithe!!!
Hi all,
We strive to provide you with the tools you need to succeed with the methods and
techniques you prefer to use. If letterbox drops are your style, the attached
file may be helpful. If not, no big deal. We'll keep handing you tools until
you either use them or tell us to stop being so helpful. ;-)
If you know what you like and are prepared to do, just tell us. We want to help
you succeed however we can. We'll do that best when we are "targetting" your
needs instead of using a scattergun approach.
If you like the CD I compiled, want to send them out and hand them out to people
you've met, let us know and we'll do a new compilation up and send it out to you
to burn copies of. (If you never look at the stuff on the CDs, let us know
and I won't send any more. Then, let us know when you're ready to look and
we'll send you a new one).
If you like the catalog program, but aren't on CAS, send us the names and
US$1.25 per name and we'll add them to the next campaign.
If you want to make a call but have nothing to say, let's do a three way and say
nothing together. Or organise a three-way with Ken, or even one of our upline
in the USA. Whatever is convenient.
You have almost unlimited options and an almost unlimited opportunity. Don't
let another month pass without doing something that gets you closer to where you
want to be.
We've been doing a fair bit of stuff back here and most of the results have gone
to those who were doing something. I'd better not name names or quote complete
figures, but suffice to say, we gave one frontline three people in July. Each
is now personally-sponsored by them. With well-placed effort (particularly from
those three) that is enough personally-sponsored to take that distributor to
Diamond!
Here's two little disclaimers in case you're thinking, "What about me?".
1. The FiveStep site rotated the visitors fairly, but the enthusiastic prospects
hit the URL of the same person.
2. This person has been doing a LOT of research on the TAHITIAN NONI brand and
company since she joined in March. The lion's share of leads are directed to
her because surprisingly enough the bulk of people ask me about these things. I
direct them to ........ with the advice, "..... can answer that for you".
If you want to be handed prospects, begin learning about the products. Make
sure we are aware of this. Take advantage of the websites available. Make sure
we have the URLs. Keep in touch. Then, when a question comes up, it may be YOU
who we direct the person to for more information. Don't misunderstand. You do
NOT need to become an expert. But, you must be able to "direct traffic" and
answer a few questions.
We have one guy who is offline that calls me every few weeks and asks me for MY
web address to send people to.
1. He has a TNI site of his own he can send them to as well.
2. He should write it down and take it with him in his wallet.
If you don't have anywhere to direct them to, you're going to find it difficult
to inform them. Nobody should need to spend every waking hour answering
questions (except me, but I love it soooo much). ;-)
If you want to be in the forefront of my mind, be in the forefront of my inbox.
Most of my efforts are internet-based. In the absence of any requests for
offline help, this is where I'll continue.
I recently asked who would contact leads if I gave them to you. Only a few
responded. Either my email didn't get through or the "message" didn't get
through. (If you don't recall receiving that email, let me know. I'm
interested to know if perhaps certain ISPs' spam filters are stopping some
messages getting through).
Neither my sponsor nor any of my upline has EVER offered to give me leads (until
I grumbled a couple of weeks ago. And, I was given a dud). I would be ecstatic
if someone offered leads to me. But, they don't. I'm making an offer to you
that no-one has made to me. I endeavour to place people under you, but no-one
has ever placed anyone under me.
Next disclaimer for those really starting to take offense: Don't. ;-)
I'm not totally nuts. I do realise that you may be busy. I do realise you have
a life. I do realise you have a lot of other stuff to do other than putting
together your business. But, if you could spare ten minutes every couple of
days to check your email and reply to any messages, it will really help. As
long as I know what you're replying to, often a simple yes or no will be
enough. Other times it may require a few lines. I don't mind. Just respond
(***PLEASE***) so I know where you're at.
Interesting point NOT to get offended by:
If you don't reply to my messages, how do I know that you will reply to
prospects?
Bye for now,
Charles
P.S. - "Gurus" would tell me to put this message aside and rethink it later
before sending. But, I'm going to send it now anyway. I like to live
dangerously. ;-)
PPS - The "leaders" in our previous business taught people to "always send
positive downline". To heck with that. This is a business, not a
kindegarten! I give it as I see it and I give it openly and honestly. I do
hold back a little, but you'd hardly notice. ;-)
PPPS - Part of the reason I do this is to knock fence-sitters off the fence.
Those who are ready to go with this, understand where I'm coming from and will
get back to me and tell me what they want to do next. Those who don't, just
won't get it and will take major offense and quit. If you do that, LET ME
KNOW. If you are reading this message, we are still directing visitors to YOUR
FiveStep URL -- remember when I wrote to you a few days ago and told you about
it? If you are quitting, tell us so we can remove your URL and direct thosee
visitors to the others.
PPPS Part II: If I thought you were quitting, I wouldn't have sent you this
message. So, don't quit or you'll shock me.
PPPPS - Well, why not a PPPPS? If you got this far, I have a surprise for you.
Reply before midday to find out what it is.
PPPPPS - I remember Ken teaching people who complained,
"How 'bout you get out and come back when it's 'easier'".
...and finally, as you would have noticed, I did put a warning at the top of
this message.
Summary aka..."What is he on about????"
WE want to help you succeed.
We want to know what you WILL be prepared to do to succeed.
We want to know what we can do to HELP you.
We want to know what YOU define as success.
We believe you can SUCCEED.
(Re-read the above until you work out why we believe that)
We want you to COMMUNICATE with us.
We want you to USE us (in a good way)
That's enough about "We". What do YOU want?
