Advantages and disadvantages of franchising

Advantages and disadvantages of franchising

 

Buying a franchise can be a quick way to set up your own business without starting from scratch. But there are also a number of drawbacks. When it comes to starting a business, many times people think about buying a franchise. Many time people think or a franchise as a shortcut to success. Not everyone should be a franchisee, and not all franchises are created equal. There are options other them buying a franchise more on that later.

 

Take a look at a few advantages and disadvantages of franchise ownership and what to expect when buying a franchise.

Advantages of franchising

 

1) Lower Failure Rate – In most cases when buying a franchise, you’re buying an established successful system that has been proven to work. Franchisees stand a much better chance of success than people who start independent businesses, franchisees have an 80 percent chance of surviving while independent businesses stand a 70 to 80 percent chance of NOT surviving; Statistics show;

 

2) Start up help and beyond – You get a lot of startup help and running it after startup. Many franchises are turnkey operations. With franchise, you get all the equipment, instruction or training AND SUPPLIES needed to start AND OPPORATE THE BUSINESS. Some franchises give you ongoing training, and help with management and marketing. You will GET the benefit of the parent company’s marketing.

 

3) Inventory and supplies cost Buying Power – Your franchise will benefit from the collective buying power of the parent company. Franchisor can buy in bulk and pass the savings along to YOU. Inventory and supplies CAN cost less than running an independent company.

 

4) National brand-name recognition – Many well-known franchises have STAR POWER. iT’S like buying a business with built-in customers.

 

5) A franchise business can be immensely profitable. (TOCO BELL, Subway AND many more)

 

Disadvantages of Buying a Franchise

 

1) No room for your creativity – The main disadvantage of a franchise is you have to do it their way – sometimes right down to the way the salt and pepper shakers filled. Their Way or The Highway. As a franchisee, you are not actually the one running the business, and many franchisors have a degree of control that you may find to much to handle.

 

2) Besides the original franchise fee you have ongoing Costs, You will pay every month a percentage of the business revenue. The franchisor can charge additional fees for services, such as advertising and other services that are not optional.

 

3) Ongoing Support or lack of. Many times the assistance in starting a business and operating it successfully is not all that good. Sometimes it’s just startup operations, everything after that is up to you.

 

4) Expensive – Buying into many of the well-known franchises are very expensive. You will have to arrange the necessary financing or have deep pockets.

 

5) Not all that glitters is Gold – Just because a business is offering franchises is no guarantee that the franchise will be successful. – Buying unknown, inexpensive franchise can be a gamble. In some cases all the franchisor is interested in is selling more franchises. Any franchise you are thinking of buying needs to be carefully investigated.

 

6) Employees – Most franchises deal with minimum wage employees that don’t have the interest in the business success as you do. Steeling and people not showing up for work is a constant thorn in your side.

 

7) YOU are the business – I have seen many people spend their life savings only to be worked to death and never have the free time they were looking for.

 

If you have the initiative, patience and drive to start a business and if you have sufficient finances and enough business experience to go it alone, your best path may be to purchase a business opportunity or to start your own business. This is especially true if you are someone who would not be willing to follow a franchisor’s system.

 

If you want to own a business and be your own boss take a look at Network Marketing.

Advantages of starting a Network Marketing or Home based business are.

• Low start up cost.

• Support from a team

• Unlimited income

• No one telling you how to run or build your business, but with all the support and knowhow if you desire it. (I recommend you use their training)

• Duplication – now you can be the franchisor. Nothing like having your income come from multiple sources. Just think about it. If you buy a franchise and the business fails or the building has problems or road work stops your customer from coming in the door. You’re out of business. Now with Network Marketing if one business member has a personal problem and stops building you still have many other business centers out there working on their business and their business is your business.

Here is an example

I built a global business in 7 countries. I have a very big team in Japan and when Japan had the big earthquake my business in Japan all but stopped. Japan was just a small part of my business so it did not put me out of business. With any small business, whether it’s a franchise or not you have one opportunity to build an income you cannot be the franchisor.

 

If you’re interested in learning more about Network Marketing I would love to inform you and or help you create a global income.

 

The most important component is not the business itself but what you bring to the business. So follow whichever business ownership path fits you and enjoy being your own boss!

PS Remember even if you choose to buy a franchise or start a business. Two incomes are better the one. I was a general contractor and build my networking business on the side and now I have multiple incomes.

Successful MLM Team

How to be successful in mlm business

What does it take to build a successful MLM business?

Do you have what it takes to build a successful MLM team?

Listen to this recording about a few people that did not have much going in their favor, but where committed to build a successful MLM team.

 

Talent is over rated. You must have a burning desire to build a successful Network Marketing business. If you’re frustrated and not getting the results you should be. Hang in there. You do have everything needed to accomplish your dreams. If God gave you the dream he gave you all that you need to accomplish that dream.

Many times we start to doubt ourselves. We start to justify why our JOB is not that bad or how we just don’t have the needed talent or skills to build a successful MLM business. We are not like that guy or that gal. I’m not this or I’m not that. I am here to tell you that you are all this and all that. You can build a successful MLM team.

 

Successful MLM building is not always duplicatable.

I know your upline is telling you to build it this way or that way but that does not fit with you. You feel like a square peg in a round hole. Then find a way to build that fits your skills. I’m not going to go over all the ways to build a successful MLM team, but here are a few. You can use a prospecting CD or DVD. Are you good at talking to new people? All you have to do is ask people? “ Are you open to other ways of making money” Or if not use Drop Cards You can drop a drop card anywhere looking for the right person to pick it up. How about the telephone? Are you good on the phone? Go online and get the local board of realtors list and start calling. Every county has an online list. Start dialing for dollars. How about online. Are you good at writing? Do you enjoy blogging? Or are you good at social media. Do you chat on facebook with a lot of people or maybe you have a hobby your love to talk about. Start a blog and start driving traffic you’re your blog.

How to do mlm

If you’re not good or comfortable at any of them, I’m sorry you will need to force yourself to do some of all the needed activities to make something happen. I was not comfortable at any of the needed activities to build a successful MLM team. But I did lot of as many as I could. I passed out prospecting CDs. I dropped thousands of drop cards; I made thousands of cold calls. I blogged everyday I did everything I needed. I had to outwork everyone around my.

 

To build a successful MLM you have to make up with hard work what you lack in talent and skills. Remember this; the skills come from doing. You can always build on skill. You can always develop skills. You are not born with skills you develop skills.

You can build a successful MLM. You just have to reach down deep and focus on your DMO (daily method of operation) Listen to my story here. It will give you hope.

MonaVie Opportunity

MonaVie Opportunity is getting better and better.

 

MonaVie has been around for 7 years. I have been with monaVie for just over 5 years. MonaVie Opportunity is one of the most locative Network Marketing opportunities around. You don’t need to take my word for it, look at the facts. Network Marketing / home based business has been around for over 100 years. MonaVie reached 1 billion dollars in sales faster than any other company in the home based business industry. The MonaVie opportunity has created more millionaires faster than any company in the industry. That’s correct more millionaires faster than any company in this 100 years old industry. How did MonaVie do that?

 

MonaVie opportunity why it’s so good?

Many people are joining the Monavie opportunity; the numbers are roughly 200,000 people per week. The world’s worsening economic crisis is a great thing for network marketing opportunities. The bad economy has change the way people are looking at their future. It has prompted many to seek a Plan B, or simply a safety net to stay afloat in the worst economic times since the great depression. People are realizing that they must make a change and they are looking at starting their own network marketing business at an alarming rate. As the industry grows more and more people that normally would not be looking are now looking. As the network marketing industry is growing the largest segment in this industry is the health and wellness sector. People are getting more and more concerned about their health and the foods we eat.

The MonaVie opportunity include a line of all natural juice drinks including just released MonaVie Mx. This new product has 30 different fruits and vegetables in one bottle. This is the Active, Mmun and Essential products all in one bottle with the addition of 11 vegetables. Also RVL Monavie’s all natural weight loss / meal replacement with more nutrition per calorie then any product on the market, and new to MonaVie is a line of bio availability vitamins MonaVie Elements.Included are Elements for women, men, children, brain and glucose. MonaVie Elements are a powder you just tear one open, add it to water or juice, mix it up and drink it. All of MonaVie products have the same supper Acai that MonaVie is known for. MonaVie blends antioxidant nutritional power with an unparalleled opportunity that can allow you to capitalize on the surging health and wellness industry.

 

The MonaVie opportunity is fueled be the entrepreneurial revolution and the natural health industry.

I know what you’re thinking; can the juice be that good? Let’s just look for a minute. For MonaVie to do over 1 billion in sales in less than 3 years it has to be good. For MonaVie to have paid out over 1 billion dollars in commissions, It has to be a good product. Add all that to one of the most aggressive compensation plans in the industry. MonaVie is a non flushing binary. Meaning your points don’t go away as long as you are active and you have not been paid for your points.

MonaVie opportunity is getting better

MonaVie just added more money to the MonaVie compensation plan. Now the MonaVie opportunity pays out 55% to its distributors.

Drop Cards

Drop Cards what they are and how to use them.

 

Drop cards are a simple way to advertise your product or your opportunity. Drop Cards are just one of the many prospecting techniques I use. I have used drop cards for a long time.

For more information about how I built my business receive a free copy of my prospecting and lead generating tips by filling out the contact information.

 What is a Drop Card?

A drop card is a small card the size of a business card that tells a short quick story to entice the looker to call the number or visit your website. You can get drop cards that look like money or you can have cards that just have a catchy saying on it. I have used both, but to me I like the catchy saying. I want my card to be picked up by someone that likes what I have to say not just thinks my card looks good. I would rather the card be left where I put it until someone sees it and the saying resonates with then enough to pick it up and call or visit my site.

Drop Cards are not to be scattered all over the ground or to be put on every windshield in every parking lot. That’s a great way to get a call from the owner of the parking lot or the police for littering. More on that in my FREE audio.

Drop Cards need a call to action.

With all Drop Cards you need a call to action. You need to give the interested person something to do. You will get a lot more people that will listen to a recording or visit a website then call you personally. People are scared to be sold. If they know they will be listening to a recording or watching a video with no live person it makes them feel safe and they will be more likely to call or visit. I use a call in recording most of the time if I can. That way the person that found my drop card can take action right away not wait until they get in front of their computer. Although with the new smart phones the video may be a great thing.

The call to action needs to be

Call now or listen to this recording or visit my website or watch this short video or something like that. I use all these call to action it just depends on how I’m feeling at the time I create the card. I also always give my cell number. If they like what they hear or see I want them to be able to call me right away.

Drop Card recordings.

If you are recording a call in number I have a few suggestions.

Use a phone number without an access code. For $5 a month you can get a phone number without access code. You don’t need a 1-800 number because most cell phones have unlimited long distance on their plan. Go to http://simplevoicebox.com/

I use the privet number that way there’s no access code needed and it’s only $5 a month. One of the reasons I like simplevoice is it will send me an email every day I have activity and tell me the number of the person that called and how long they listened. If I have and seven minute recording and I have someone that listens to all seven minutes, but does not leave a message I’m calling them. If they only listen to two minute I’m not wasting my time the recording worked. It weeded out the person as a non looker.

What to put on your drop card recording.

Don’t sell your product, your opportunity or network marketing on the recording or over the phone. You will get mixed advice about this. Some say they only want those interested in their opportunity or MLM to call them so they tell everything on the recording.

I DO NOT

Too many people have a messed up Idea about network marketing. If they where attacked by a over excited network marketer or they had someone that would not leave them alone about their product or company. As soon as you say the word MLM or Network marketing or your company name the picture in their mind is that old image and they are not interested in that. I want them to see what I’m doing and I’m not doing what they think. Even if they were introduced to your company before they have not seen it from you. Belly-to-belly is the best way to sell the idea of your opportunity or your product if at all possible. Here are a few ideas of recordings I have.

(760)569-6275

(641)715-3900 Ext. 896196#

This is one I did for a team member it is two parts the first is me the second is one of my lady leaders. (559)546-1497

Don’t over think the message just drive traffic. These recordings are great to use when cold calling also. I will teach on cold calling later.

What do you want your dropcard to say and look like?

 

HERE ARE A FEW IDEAS FOR A DROP CARD SAYING.

 

• TIRED OF YOUR BOSS? Let me show you how to fire him.
• I teach people to make more part time then they do at their job fulltime.
• I teach stay at home moms make more money part time from home then their husband make fulltime at his job.
• You will work 98000 hours before you can retire if ever. Let me show you an option.
• Own your own business. Work from home Pay Off debt $2000 to $5000 PT/FT
• You only need to be at the right place at the right time once. Don’t miss it!
• Are you looking for a way out of the rat race?
• There are so many saying you can put on a drop card. Try several see what one gets you the most calls. Track your replies.

 

Click on the image to enlarge. Note the first card has a “code” I use the codes before to track where the card was found. Not the last card has a background picture it takes from the message and is not that catchy. These are all cards I have used before.

 

Next let’s talk about drop card style and quality.

You have heard in real estate it’s location-location-location. Well with Drop Cards it’s quality-quality-quality. Don’t cut cost and print your own or get the cheapest thin drop card you can find. Get a thick glossy card. I like bright yellow with black block lettering. Simple and to the point. Don’t put a back ground picture or other images on the card. It talks away from the message. You are not selling the card you’re selling the message keep it that way. A good place that makes great quality cards at a very good price is Gotprint.net or gotprint.com

I hope this was helpful

MLM Tips

MLM Tips to help you win

You found my site because you’re looking for MLM Tips to build Network Marketing business.

I must first let you know you did not stumble on a wannabe website from someone that has never built a MLM / Network Marketing business. I have built a very big and long lasting team in over 9 countries. The picture below is a screenshot of my back office. In the company I am still with.  Click on the picture to see a larger image.

The Right and Left leg volume is total points for that WEEK. I show you that just to prove that I have the fruit on my tree to help you build what ever business you choose. I have personally sponsored over 250 people. For some tips about how I did it fill out the form to the right and get my free download.  There is additional training HERE

enough about that on to the MLM tips.

 

Here are the MLM Tips in no order

 MLM Tip 1

STP is king. Show the Plan or Share the Product and Stuff the pockets. The one that shares the most wins. Exposure to as many people as you can. In any way you can. I use many different ways to find people to share my business and product with.

MLM Tip 2

Work on yourself as much and you work on your business. You can take the boy out of the trailer park but you can’t take the trailer park out of the boy. Except by replacing the trailer park image with good stuff. Read books a lot of them. I hated reading in fact I could not read when I started. I would read a paragraph a day at first now I read one to two books a month.

MLM Tip 3

Show up. I say show up to as much as you can. I know for a fact that if you stop showing up you will stop showing up totally. Out of sight out of mind. You need to attend at lease a meeting a week. If you don’t have any in your area you do them.

MLM Tip 4

Be Consistent. Being consistant with your “DMO” daily method of operation is key to building a successful multi level marketing business. Being consistant is one of the quickest ways to build momentum on your team. Your DMO and your commitment to it is key to your success.

MLM Tip 5

Be Commited. Being committed to your product and your company is very important in building a network marketing business. If you don’t have belief in your product how can you sell it? You simply would be missing the passion you need to succeed in this industry. You must also have a high-level of believe in the company and have trust with whom you are doing business with. You have to sell the company and their vision to your prospect.

MLM Tip 6

People don’t join a company or a product people join YOU. You can know all about your product and your company, but people will join YOU not the company or the product.

MLM Tip 7

You need to have a dream and desire. Talent is overrated. Give me someone with a deep desire over someone with talent any day.  Remember if you can see it you can achieve it. See that picture of the privet jet. That jet was on my dream board for over two years. I took seven of my leaders on a privet jet and after we got home I looked on my dream board and noticed the plain we were on was the exact kind of plain on my dream board. Don’t miss this part of your journey for success.

 

MLM Tip 8

All the major network marketing superstar’s built their business face-to-face or belly-to-belly. Don’t get confused with internet marketing scams trying to tell you that you can build your team online totally without contacting anyone. Now that said I do use online marketing. But really take a look at any leader in the industry that ALL built their business using old school techniques. Online has great benefits, but it takes a lot of time to master. If you’re looking for a great simple system take a look at  THIS. 

MLM Tip 9

Duplication is not that important. I mean the way you contact people is not always duplicatable.  Some people are great at cold calling, some great at meeting people out and about, some are great at online SEO and websites. Use what you’re good at to the best of your ability, but you better learn to do every form of prospecting. If you’re good at meeting people face-to-face and think everyone should be able to do it like you. You will get very frustrated.

 

I hope this helped you all little.

Black Diamond University

Black Diamond University what it is, what it was and what it will be.

 

I was one of the founding distributors in Black Diamond University (BDU) I helped create and implement many of the tools in BDU. Jim Bellacera was my sponsor, but my mentors where at first John Gopaul for the year I went Diamond and then the last two years Darrell Utterbach was my mentor. (more on that later)

 Black Diamond University what it was

BDU started as MIT success MonaVie International Training System and soon after changed their name to Black Diamond University also known as BDU. No matter what you may think or what you have heard BDU and the mentorship of Darrell Utterbach are responsible for creating the fastest black diamonds in MonaVie (yes plural, more than one) and the fastest royal black diamond and the youngest Black diamond. The California gold rush in MonaVie was all created using the BDU system of a simple success module training system of two training modules. The training was simple and very duplicate able. And zero profit , meaning it was cheap for the new distributors.

 

Black Diamond University was run by Darrell Utterbach and Jim Bellacera

along with Steve Airola. With participation from distributors like Tonya Hamblin, Ian McKenzie, Vincent St.Louis and others. BDU was founded on the principle of low cast no fluff tools that gave people what was needed to build a successful MonaVie business without the high cost and self promotion of any one leader. Darrell Utterbach had a heart for the people. Darrell was focused on helping people become the best they could be.

 

The BDU system created a very big run of Blue Diamond, Hawwaiin Blue, Black Diamonds and Royal Black Diamonds. The system was to give your new team members a four CD set with booklet that taught them everything needed to take their MonaVie business from start to success and SO many did just that.

 

I was personally mentored by Darrell Utterbach the last two years of his life. My team and Peter and Jodi Hoogenhoff where the last leaders that stayed with Darrell. I don’t want to get into why others left. I believe many times in the network marketing industry people get catapulted into success at an alarming rate. Without personal growth many times that lack of self growth can create a problem. I have typed this part several times trying to tell a story without being negative or putting others down and honestly it can’t be done. So out of respect to MonaVie and their leaders I will just say Darrell was NOT the problem.

I stood by Darrell’s side as my leader because I was committed to my leader. Darrell was my friend and my mentor. His guidance got me to the rank I am at and got so many others to the rank they are at and I was not going to forget that. Darrell and I met for lunch the day before he pasted away. All we talked about was the future with MonaVie. We talked about how we were going to bless the world with our vision. We talked about the people in his team we where making plans for the future. Very big plans.

Darrell your vision is strong in my heart. Your vision is strong in my future. I will carry on with all that Darrell taught me and carry his spirit spredd his love for the people in everything I do.

So what next with MonaVie?

I remember many times Darrell talking about how he tried to get Dallin Larson founder of MonaVie to have one system. Now it is true. One system in MonaVie I even heard Dallin say on stage that Darrel tried for many years to get one system and Dallin finely listened. MonaVie 2.0 MVP is here. MVP is a MonaVie’s global training and support system. All the systems have lowered their banner and joined MonaVie MVP “MonaVie Values People” system no more BDU no more R3 Global. Yes we will still have teams you will always have teams and lines of sponsorship. The way I look at it is. Just like the NFL you have different teams you have the Raiders, the Cults, New Englin, but they are all part of the NFL. We are MonaVie and we all support and use MVP.

 

If you found this article and are looking to get back involved with MonaVie and are looking for a leader that has the same principles you loved about Darrell Utterbach I am here to help. Darrell is, was and always will be my leader. I talk to his wife Tracy on a weekly basses. I even spoke at Derrals funeral alongside Dallin Larson. If you are looking to rejoin MonaVie contact me and help me carry the BDU legacy on. You can email me at Vstlouis5@aol.com or hunt me up on facebook or just click here and sign yourself up I will contact you right away.

This is a text I recieved by Darrell after he spoke at my TEAM 212 convention

“Vincent St.Louis, I have been around this industry for over 20 years, and I have witnessed countless events by distributor groups and corporations. Your event was a very special event, beyond anything I could ever possibly express to someone not in attendance. Tracy and I were moved beyond words and certain we just witnessed the birth of many of MonaVie’s Diamonds and Black Diamonds. Future greatness was all over that room. Vincent your leadership is outstanding. Over the last 20 years I have been around many leaders in the Network Marketing industry, but Vincent St.Louis you rank up there with the top leaders in this industry. I just witnessed greatness in you beyond anything I have ever seen. I am honored to call you my friend and business partner.”

The MORE Project

I help the The MORE Project save lives.

The MORE Project has been a very impotent part of my life and my teams life.

Established in 2005, The MORE Project™ continues to change the lives of tens of thousands of people. From food, shelter, and clothing to an education, The MORE Project provides hope to some of Brazil’s most impoverished families. Helping to support this important work is our way of giving back to a world that has given so much to all of us.

WITH SUCCESS COMES RESPONSIBILITY

MonaVie has donated millions of dollars and thousands of hours to help change the lives of children and their families in the favelas of Brazil.

• School programs
• Daily Meals
• Job training
• Dental care
• Emotional support
• Housing

 

I would like to encourage everyone to give a little more. I have heard it said that in the Bible this is the only time Jesus tells you to challenge him with giving and receiving. If you are in MonaVie I would like to encourage you to go into your back office and click for kids and donate 10% or more to The More Project. You will not miss it, but the kids will notice it.  As your income goes up so will your donations by giving a percentage and the sooner you start when you’re making the big bucks you won’t even notice the money being taken out, but your blessing will continue to bless others.

 

MoneVie has a heart and so does it’s distributors. We all love and support the MORE project. When much is given much is expected. Make it your goal that when you become very wealthy with MonaVie or whatever business you’re in that you will give a little more to someone in need. I would like to ask you if you don’t have that place to give take a look at the MORE Project and do more with the blessings that God gave you. Remember a gift is not a gift until it is given. So give the gift that God gave YOU.

Do you want it BAD

Do you want it BAD?

So many times we get excited about making a change in our life. I was talking to a new Realtor the other day and he said. ” There is to much competition, too many Realtors”  I told him the same thing I will tell you. There is ALWAYS room for one more superstar. There is room for one more internet marketing guru one more top income earner in Network Marketing, always room for one more real estate superstar. You want to know how I know this? Because most people will not do what it takes to win at that level. 70% will not do anything, but maybe show up, 25% will do just enough to get by and 4% will do what it takes to win and 1% or less will become superstars. That is true in any area of business and sports.

Do you want it bad enough?

When I first started my MonaVie business. I looked around at all the talent in my area. I thought there was no way I could make MonaVie happen. There were so many people that were good a talking to people that looked good, talked good drove a nice car. There was no way I could compete with them. In fact, they could not compete with me. I out worked all of them. They were talking the talk I was walking the walk. In less then 2 years I put over 5000 people on my team and was making from $4000 to $5000 a WEEK.  I sponsored over 150 people using local market techniques. Then I went online and sponsored over 100 people all online. I’m not saying this to toot my horn I’m just stating a point that talent may look good, but without desire and drive you ain’t got nothing.

You see very few people will do what it takes to win.

I started looking at internet marketing and thought “man this is so confusing, how will I ever learn it all, I can’t do this. There are so many people out there making it happen, I can’t compete” Then I remembered I thought the same with my Network marketing business. I will win and I know it. Do you know why? Because

I will do what others won’t so I can live the life that others can’t.

I look at the stories of top winners in any field. Jerry Rise, Michael Jordan, Barry Bonds, Dexter Yager, Brig Hart, Dave Wood, Vincent St.Louis and many many more. They all worked hard, they all stayed up late and started early they all missed some good times chasing their dreams. They all shed blood, sweet and tears chasing their dreams. The internet is very over whelming. Network Marketing is one of the easiest businesses to build it is basically a numbers game. My good friend Paul always says “it’s not magical it’s mathematical” he is right. You talk to X number of people and you will find X number that join out of the X number that join you will find X number that build out of the X number that build you will find X number that really build. It’s that simple. You just need to find people to talk to. With the internet WOW there is a lot to learn. I started my website / blog several years before I even knew what SEO was. But slowly I started learning and doing and receiving. With any business find someone that is where you want to go get them connected someway by the cash register and let them teach you. What do I mean by “connected to the cash register”? If they make money when you make money that is a good win-win and you are connected by the cash register. That’s the beauty of Network Marketing with the right leader.

Do you have what it takes?

Are you just a Dreamer or are you someone with a Dream?

There is a difference. A dreamer lies on the grass stares into the sky thinking about how cool it would be to do this or that. A person with a dream gets up off the grass and chases their dream. Someone with a dream will move mountains to reach the dream. It says in the Bible ” A man without a vision will perish” You most have a dream big enough to move you when you don’t want to move.

 

So

Do you want it BAD?

Do you have what it takes?

Do you have the desire to get it done?

Do you really want it?

 

Only YOU know the answer.

God and Wealth

Receive the Wealth of god

 

The Bible has a lot to say about money, wealth, greed, contentment and a variety of other topics as they pertain to our financial and spiritual lives.

Living your dream is not easy. It takes tenacity and persistence along with faith in yourself and in God. Your faith in the vision that God gave to you. Your dreams and vision for yourself are from God. And If God gave you the vision of wealth and prosperity, then he gave you everything you will need to achieve it and accomplish God’s vision for you.

 

The wealth of God

God wants you to be wealthy. So many times I meet people that don’t think they deserve to have Gods blessing of wealth. They think because of past mistakes or because they are a sinner they don’t deserve Gods blessing or that God would not bless them. I want you to think about Daniel of the Bible. God gave him a vision. Now Daniel was not a perfect person he committed adultery and murder just to mention a few. Now I’m not saying you have a free ride to commit adultery or murder God will still deal with you on his time, but the vision is still from God. God will even use bad people with bad intent to serve his purpose. God knows what he’s doing. Trust in him. It says in the Bible that the faith of a mustard seed can move a mountain. It also says faith without works is dead. You can have all the faith in the world, but if you don’t pick up a shovel the mountain is not moving. The Bible also says that the slacker won’t eat. God wants you to work hard., God wants you to receive the wealth of God.

God and Money

The church needs you to receive the wealth of God. There are preachers and greater’s and choir singers. God gives us all gifts. If God gave you a gift of making money it’s your gift to God to make as much as you can. Do well with your money bless the church, bless your pastor, bless the children of God, but remember to bless yourself as well. God made Lambergeniis and big houses and God gave you the ability to make the money to have a fat bank account. Bliss God by receiving his offering to you.

 

It’s Better to give then receive!

Hog wash!!! Giving is 50 – 50. If all you do is give and you don’t ever receive you are denying someone the gift of giving. There is always a giver and a receiver for every gift. Can you imagine if the orphanages of the world believed it was better to give, then receive? They would not receive any gifts. You have to finish the circle of giving by receiving. It is a blessing to give and to receive. So make sure you receive all the gifts that God has for you including wealth.

 

The devil and the wealth of God.

It takes a lot of money to do God’s work. The devil wants you to believe you don’t deserve to be wealthy or you don’t deserve to be blessed. The devil knows your weaknesses. He will use your sins against you. Remember Jesus died for your sins. They have all been washed away by the blood of Jesus. (as long as you believe that. If not I can’t help you with that Only Jesus can) If you truly believe that Jesus died for your sins, then give them to Him. Release the guilt of past sins to Jesus and receive the wealth of God that he has for you. So you can bless the needs of God. Satan becomes active in your life when he sees you’re about to take hold of your destiny. Listen God can have anything he wants. He does not need you or me to make money to build the church or to feed the hungry. God can create all things. But God wants you to be a part of it all. God wants you to realize that threw Him you can accomplish anything. It’s the faith and trust in God that will give you wealth not the Love of Money. His dream for your life can be fulfilled, even in the face of insurmountable adds.

 

 

God and Wealth

Remember the most wealthy place on earth is the cemetery. Yes the cemetery because that’s where all the unfulfilled dreams are. The cemetery is where the invention that never got invented, the idea that could have changed the world is buried there, the gifts that God tried to gift to people, but they never received them Yes the cemetery is the riches place on earth. Don’t go to your grave with God’s gifts still in you.

 

It is important to have a right heart without greed. When greed creeps into our heart we tend to want the object of our desires to provide us with long lasting satisfaction so we can feel complete. Greed tells us that happiness comes from being rich and having power. We must remember the words of Paul in the Bible. Paul told Timothy that the way to overcome greed is to flee from it and to “pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, and gentleness” (1 Timothy 6:11). Wealth can be a blessing or a curse depending on one’s attitude about it.

 

I was praying that God would help solve my money problems, but I would not receive the blessings he was trying to give me. I was turning down great income opportunities because I had a problem with making money. For some reason I thought that only broke people made it to heaven. I thought that it’s easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle then a rich man to go to heaven. So as I’m on my knees at night praying for God to bless me. One night I got a little mad at God and said” God you say you will answer my prayer and you will supply all my needs, but you are not here for me now when I need you so much” At that time I received a vision of all the way’s God was giving me money making opportunities that I did not take because I did not want to take advantage of people or I did not think I deserved success or I thought it was bad to make money. I was asking for help and God was trying to help. I just was not receiving the blessings God wanted me to have. God wants you and me to prosper. God owns all things so let him give you all your desires.

 

We must think differently. We must not be conformed to the world, but instead transformed by the renewing our minds. It’s important not to have a poverty mentality. Zig Ziglar once said that if we focus on what’s missing in owner life and not on what we have can lead to further poverty. For some of us this mentality was taught to us by an early age. Have you ever asked for something as a child and your parents said: “we can’t afford that”? That is a perfect example of a poverty mentality. How you think about money can affect you and your family’s future? It can also effect your children and their future. It can definitely block you from prospering financially. God does not want us to be broke. He wants us to prosper. What is your relationship with money? Are you afraid that if you give yourself the right to think you are worthy of wealth, then you’re going to lock yourself into the material world of greed? Allow yourself to desire wealth. We must first have money to provide for ourselves and others. We cannot give financially to charities and organizations without money.

Desiring wealth does not make you any less spiritual.

True wealth comes by trusting in god. When you trust in god and get out of your own way you are actually opening doors to a more prosperous life. The hardest thing for people to do is to let go and trust.

God gave the dream to you. If he wanted someone else to achieve it He would have given them the dream. Don’t stop at the river bank to the land of milk and honey. Cross the river and receive all the gifts that God has for you.

viral campaign

I’m sure you have heard the term “viral marketing.” Not really quiet sure what it is or what it means?

One thing is for certain “viral marketing” has nothing to do with computer viruses. It is a term to describe marketing your business with information products that can get passed around the Internet, such as videos, eBooks, podcasts, special reports, forwarded emails, and more. Below I will touch on some viral marketing tips to help you better get your business out there on the web. A great website you can read the rest of the store at http://karistlouis.com/

Viral Campaign

Even the very best viral marketing campaign, whether it be a video or an article, will not do well without the right seeding. This means putting your creation into the right places so it gets picked up and distributed around. I’ve seen many of really high quality viral campaign fail horribly. This is because they did not get traction and therefore did not get seen by enough people to gather momentum to continue spreading.

A viral campaign needs to have the right characteristics in order to spread effectively at all. Not only do you need to give your campaign massive exposure at the start you also need to make sure that the campaign has the appeal of the web users.

The biggest question you need to ask yourself before you create your viral campaign is ‘why would people want to spread this?’ It needs to have the qualities necessary for success. It needs to have some appeal so people will want to share it on social media sites. You need to find a topic that is going to get a reaction from people and get them talking. Most Virel campaigns fail and others that were not intended to be a viral campaign become one.
