Ultimate Wealth

Do you want to own your own business? Are you tired of searching for a quality business you can start and only finding overpriced opportunities, expensive franchises and get rich quick schemes? If so, then this page might be for you…

Discover how a full time college student broke into the window cleaning business and squeegeed in over $87,000 in sales in his first year.

“In just a few minutes time, you will discover how you can easily duplicate his success …and realistically earn $50,000 - $100,000 your first year in business … even if you have NEVER cleaned a window in your life!”

If you read the headline above, you’d be excused for being a little skeptical… a “full time college kid made $87,000 in one year?” Sounds like a story you’d read in an entrepreneur or business magazine… and a highly inflated story, at that.

Yet, it’s completely true…how do I know? Because that kid was me!

You see, my name is Tanner Larsson and in the spring of 2002 I was attending my first year of college and struggling to make ends meet as a receiving clerk for a local construction supply company, while trying to figure out what I was supposed to be doing with my life…Sound familiar?

Now I’m not going to bore you with one of those rags to riches fairytales, because it wouldn’t be true. In fact I was making ends meet just fine, but I was struggling to make enough money to enjoy the kind of life I wanted…you know, the typical American dream…fancy cars, nice vacations, big houses.

I had no idea what I wanted to do other than have enough financial freedom to pursue the lifestyle I dreamed of.

It was at this point, that I, quite by accident stumbled onto the window cleaning industry. In early 2002 I saw an opportunity in the newspaper to buy an established window cleaning company in my area. To make a long story short, I tried to buy the company, but ultimately could not meet the seller’s asking price and the deal fell through, however the glimpse into the window cleaning world was enough to pull me in.

Would you like to know how to make 1 million dollars? There are at least 1 million ways to make 1 million dollars. But you will need to devise an action plan to make it a reality, and to implement that action plan will require some effort, possibly beyond your comfort zone. Let’s break it down into numbers, so as to put the numbers and the effort into perspective:

You can make 1 million dollars ($1,000,000.00) by selling a million copies of something electronically on the Internet for a net profit of $1 a piece. If the cost to produce, license, or reproduce that product is zero, such as an e-book or an affiliate commission, then all you have to do is focus on mass-marketing your product to a wide enough audience so that you can find a million people to sell your product or service to. If your conversion rate is 1%) that means that your website would need to receive one hundred million clicks (100,000,000), out of which if 1% of them were to result in sales, you would make 1 million dollars that way. But what if your click through ratio was itself 1%? That means that your website would need to receive ten billion page views, out of which 1% would have to result in clicks, which is 100 million clicks. Out of those 100 clicks, 1 million people will buy your product at $1 a piece.

Do you deserve to earn a million dollars in Network
Marketing?  This article highlights a 1 hour course
taught by a well-known motivator and coach who shares
his secrets to earning a million dollars in the
Network Marketing industry along with some of my own
thoughts and experiences!  Are you tired of hours and
hours of calling leads with no results?  Tired of
getting “no shows” to your appointments and getting
rejected constantly?  Are you frazzled and asking
yourself “What’s going on?  Why isn’t this working?”

Here are ten secrets for earning a million dollars in
Network Marketing.  First, write down your IT, your WHY.
What was IT that got you into Network Marketing?  WHY
did you look at Network Marketing in the first place?
Something brought you here … what was IT?

1] Self Belief: What happened from that IT?  Your self
belief went down and met your self doubt.  You have to
raise your income to match your dreams, not lower your
dreams to meet your income.  This is why 95% of people
in Network Marketing are failing or have failed!  You
must believe in yourself!  You have to believe that you
can do it!  Take the ceiling off of your income, the
income potential in Network Marketing is unlimited!

2] Fall in love with your phone: You have to love to
contact people!  Most people don’t love their phone.
It feels like a 10 ton weight when they try to pick it up.
You need to learn to make the phone your best friend.
Buying leads and loading them into an autoresponder and
never speaking with anyone simply doesn’t work by itself.
There has to be personal contact involved!  Make your
phone your best friend!

3] Contact and Invite: Make contact and invite, don’t make
contact and “fire-hose” them with information!  Treat the
business with respect. If you treat the business with
respect it will respect you. If you treat it like a
business it will pay you like a business, if you treat it
like a hobby it will pay you like a hobby.

You have to learn to invite people to your meeting,
presentation or conference call.  Be an information tour
guide!  If you are on the phone more than 90 seconds on
each call you are never going to make it!  Professionals
sort, amateurs convince.  Be professional!

4] Rejection: Get used to it and learn to love it!  It’s
going to happen ALL the time!  Remember that it isn’t
personal, they are rejecting themselves.  The people you are
talking with are thinking “This is too good to be true.”

We are taught for (at least) 12 to 20 years of our lives
that we are suppose to get an education and then go get a
good job and support our family.  We are simply never taught
the right kind of knowledge to be successful in life!  Now
you are presenting them with an opportunity that can create
freedom for them and they are disapproving of it.

You need to them to get to a level of approval inside
themselves, if they don’t reach that level you will be
rejected.  You must convert rejection into approval, then
approval into application, then application into agreement,
then agreement into distributor.  Then you teach that person
to model you and duplicate.  Your business should have a
system in place for all of this.  People are not duplicable,
but systems and processes are!

5] Slave camps do exist: It’s called having a job.  If you
stop and really think about it, by following the standard
belief system accepted by society you are leading the life
of a drone.

You get up, shower, eat, go to work for 8 (or more) hours,
come home when your boss tells you it’s ok to leave, eat,
and relax a little before bed.  Then you get up the next
morning and start all over again.  Kind of monotonous isn’t
it?  I was a slave until 2003 … not any more!  It’s time
to get your life to the next level … seek freedom and be
willing to pay the price!  I guarantee you it’s worth it!

6] Objections are awesome: You should be looking for people
who will give you objections.  Most Network Marketing people
tell you to look for people who WON’T give you an objection,
look for people who will sign up.  This is wrong!  An
objection is simply a question or concern in disguise.
People who give you objections are normally inquisitive,
sharp, positive, aggressive, intelligent people.  These are
the people you want in your business!

You need to recruit up, not down.  This will cause you to
have to go outside of your comfort zone, but you need to do
it if you want to achieve freedom.  Get yourself around
people who are making the big numbers you keep hearing
about.  Don’t hang around the small fish that are only
making a couple hundred bucks a month.  Get yourself around
the ones making 5, 6 and 7 figures each month!  How can
somebody who isn’t actually doing it teach you how to do it
for yourself?  The answer is: They can’t!

7] Work with strength: Don’t waste your time with weak
people.  Work with your strong people.  Too many people try
to recruit easy people so they can say “I got one.”  This is
dead wrong!  If they are excellent, go after them.  Don’t
keep building and building and building with weak people,
you’ll never get anywhere.

Find yourself strong people and work with them to grow their
business and your business will grow and you will have more
security in the long run.  Don’t fall into the rut of just
signing up anyone and everyone.  That’s not what you want,
you want strong people; leaders!

8] Freedom is in depth, not width: Identify your leaders
and work with them.  Too many people go wide when they need
to go deep.  It’s impossible to support that many people.
Picture your business as a building.  How strong is it?
The foundation on a building goes deep, not wide.  The
foundation for your business should replicate that.  Take
a look at your business, how strong is your foundation?
Will it stand on its own if you turned around and walked
away right now? Map out your group, identify leaders,
replicate your business, find your depth and make it
concrete.

9] Mentors: Do you have one?  Do you have a Mastermind Team?
Write down the 5 people you associate with every day.  Ask
yourself “Have these people earned over a million dollars in
Network Marketing?” Do you have even one that has?  At least
one of these people must be a Network Marketing millionaire,
preferably all of them.  These are the people you need to
get around … NOW!  You must be around people who are where
you want to be and stay around them.  The major reason
people don’t get into Network Marketing is because of no
time and no money.  These are exactly the reasons they
SHOULD be in the industry!

10] Decision: These are the most powerful 8 letters in the
alphabet when put together.  You must make a decision right
now to change your life.  You must decide to cutoff and
release the past.  How are you going to respond?  Your past
is robbing you of your dreams and of making 7 figures a year
in Network Marketing.  Your past is holding you back; your
job, your associations, etc.  You have to let them go if
they are not getting you where you want to be!

My mentor, Ned Rae, says “It was your best thinking that got
you to where you are today, obviously that wasn’t good
enough.”  Think about that statement, it’s SO powerful! Your
past has affected your life up to where you are right now.
You must make the decision to cutoff and release the chains
that are holding you back.  You must make the decision right
now to release and cutoff anyone you associate with who is
not making 6 or 7 figures in Network Marketing.  Then you
must take the action!  Right now, make the commitment to
change your life.  Make the decision, take the action, and
don’t wait any longer!  Nobody can make you do this but you.
Today is the day!

I am going to introduce you today to a concept that if you understand and implement, will be the deciding factor of your financial success in your life. Like all great knowledge, this one is also dangerously simple, and that’s why most people don’t get it! But before I get to that, let me share with you a great quotation that I read recently:

“…there are people who put their dreams in a little box and say, “Yes, I’ve got dreams, of course, I’ve got dreams.” Then they put the box away and bring it out once in a while to look in it, and yep, they’re still there. These are great dreams, but they never even get out of the box. It takes an uncommon amount of guts to put your dreams on the line, to hold them up and say, “How good or how bad am I?” That’s where courage comes in.” ~ Erma Bombeck Read the rest of this entry �

Getting up for work in the morning got you down? Tired of
crowded subways and traffic jams? If you answered yes to
these questions, it’s time to rethink the way you earn your
money. Trying to fight your way into the crowded subways or
stuck in the middle of a traffic jam can put a damper on
anyone’s day. There are other ways that you can earn money.
How about a work at home business and save on taxes?

Imagine waking up when you want and walking to your office
in your pajamas. This can be the solution many people have
been dreaming about. The only traffic you’ll see is when you
have to go out shopping or run errands. Work when you want
and how you want and never be stuck in a traffic jam or
subway again.

Having your own home business means you make your own rules
and only have to report to yourself. If you wake up late,
there is no worrying about the boss being upset or deducting
your pay. Start as early or as late as your please since you
are in control of your working hours.

Remember though, you have to be disciplined, dedicated and
work hard to earn enough income to support you and your
family. If you work hard and you are dedicated you can make
a substantial living with a work at home internet business.
Setting up a little routine and maybe some business hours
may help keep you on track if you have difficulty motivating
yourself to get to work.

Setting up rules and a work schedule

Some important things to consider when setting up your own
work at home business on the internet is to have some rules
and a schedule to follow. To attain maximum productivity
within your business you must follow these rules and stick
with the schedule. There is no one there to report to but
you still need to put in hard work in order to make enough
money to support yourself and pay your bills. Set your own
time that is convenient for you and stick to it. Being
productive and getting the tasks done will be what brings in
the money to live on.

The difficult part may be committing yourself to your own
rules and schedule. Setting up your rules and schedule and
then putting them aside and not following them would not
make sense or make money. Now, you may ask, how do I keep
myself motivated enough to stick to this new schedule and
set of rules?

Probably the most effective thing to do would be setting an
income goal. Each month make a note of the amount of money
you would like to make and put it somewhere that you can see
it every day. This will encourage you to get working and put
in the time and effort that is required in order to meet
that goal. Just think, if you make your goal early you can
reward yourself and take some extra days off to do what you
please.

It is not difficult to make money with viral marketing. In
fact the most difficult part is to produce the product.
It is a means of internet marketing that grows
exponentially without further intervention from you
once you have launched it, and it benefits everyone who
becomes involved.

There are a few essential components of an effective viral
marketing strategy.  The first is that the information or
service provided must be free.  Everybody likes something
for free, and if you provide something useful that is free
of charge, and that the recipient can also give away free
of charge, you have the beginning of a viral system.  The
reason it should be free is that it will proliferate far
quicker than if it costs money.

Now think how they would feel when your customers realize
that they can rebrand the product. They can put their
name to it, and get the benefits of any sales made form
it. They are going to try to sell it after all. They
will promote it for you and provide it free to others. The
great thing is that both of you profit.

If you give your book away to only ten people at half are
going to open it since it costs nothing for them to do so.
If each of these five offer it to only ten of their
customers or contacts you can see how it can multiply.
Eventually your product is distributed all over the
internet, you get a proportion of everything sold and so do
they. Not only this, but you also get links back to your
website from them all. That is viral working perfectly!

Nobody loses. Customers get useful information for free
and also the opportunity to add their links to the ebook.
They can pass this on as they promote the product for their
own benefit.

If you give away your product to only ten people free of
charge, they will likely open it since it is free.
However, when they find that they can redistribute it,
they may be even more likely to open it.  Let us assume,
however, the low figure of 50%. If each of these five
offer it to another ten, and so on, then even after just
three repetitions your product, URL and affiliate offers
have been exposed to 125 people after just ten emails.

The links in the ebook could be anything.  A link to your
website, an affiliate offer, an opt-in form; anything at
all. You can easily work out where the “viral” comes in
and just consider this:  what if, instead of just ten,
your initial distribution had been to a thousand . . .

People ask me every day, how do I succeed in my home
based business. I wish there was a simple answer,but
unfortunately there isn’t.   However, it is a lot easier
for someone just getting started these days, because you
have the experience of lots of people who have blazed the
trail before you and you benefit from their failures and
successes.

But as in most ventures, you must put your own stamp on
your work and do it your way.  We all had to learn that
there is a lot more to it than just putting up a website
and expecting people to line up at your front door. So
to cut to the chase I developed what I call my 50-50
Solution.  I’m sure many other people do this as well
without giving it a name.

The first 50 percent is meeting people either personally,
on the phone and online.   That’s what I call belly to
belly.  I learned years ago,that people want to do
business with somebody they know and trust.  You can have
the greatest product or system in the world, but if you
don’t come across as their friend trusted ally, they’re
not going to be your customer or client very long.  It’s
sort of like the famous “golden rule” .So belly to belly
still has a place in our fast-paced world of business.
True, you can’t meet everyone you’d like to meet in
person, but you can build trust.

However, belly to belly is just 50 percent of the
equation.  The other 50 percent  is internet marketing.
Latest figures indicate that the majority of all people
have and know about computers.  You may think you know a
lot, but it doesn’t hurt to take a refresher course at your
local community college to learn the latest in navigating
and marketing on the internet.  Then, be a sponge and soak
up all you can about how other people are marketing their
products and services.  In this business you are always
learning.  I know I am.

Unfortunately, not everyone online is honest, so it is
imperative to your success to beware of doing business
with people where you have suspicions about their
intentions.  You wouldn’t do business with a shady
used car dealer, so if it appears that someone online
is just out to make a fast buck at your expense, steer
clear. That’s the kind of reputation you want to avoid.
It certainly is true that when you give a little more
than people expect, your returns will be multiplied.

Let’s fast forward a bit.  You won’t be able to do this
all by yourself forever.  That puts you in the position
where you’re going to have to hire other people to help
you in your business.  Everyone will line up on your
side when things are going well, but you will find that
those fair-weather friends just might bail on you when
the first bad quarter or month appears.  So, just like
any other business when it comes to hiring someone to
help you, go through the interview procedures as you
normally would, with references you can check.  The
job-jumper probably will leave you just like his record
indicates.  I have a sixth-sense about most people, and
I can say that the positive people I’ve been drawn to
have stayed with me even in the most difficult times.

Are you afraid to take risks?  This might prove to be a
major problem in your home based business.  If you are
afraid, and that might take some soul searching, you
might want to reevaluate your entrance into this field.
Yogi Berra was once quoted as saying “when you come to
a fork in the road, take it”.  Funny as that sounds, it
has a semblance of the courage it takes to take risks.
There undoubtedly is a risk-reward factor.  That fork
in the road might just lead to something bigger than
you ever imagined.  That’s where I lean on my gut
feelings or intution.  Most of the time they prove right.

Looking back, my 50-50 Solution has worked marvelously
for me.  That way of thinking and doing business has
enabled me to have three homes in Florida, dream vacations,
private schools for my kids, and freedome from financial
stress.  It all goes back to giving my customers something
of value first.  So think about my 50-50 solution: 50
percent the personal contact and 50 percent learning to
market on the internet.  Combine them with class and you
have a a winning program!

Shortly after I met my mentor he asked me, “Mr. Rohn, how much money have you saved and invested over the last six years?” And I said, “None.” He then asked, “Who sold you on that plan?”

It is better to be a lender than a spender.

To become financially independent you must turn part of your income into capital; turn capital into enterprise; turn enterprise into profit; turn profit into investment; and turn investment into financial independence.

Financial independence is the ability to live from the income of your own personal resources.

If you depend on your company to take care of your retirement, your future income will be divided by five. Take care of it yourself, and you can multiply your future income by five.

I remember saying to my mentor, “If I had more money, I would have a better plan.” He quickly responded, “I would suggest that if you had a better plan, you would have more money.” You see, it’s not the amount that counts; it’s the plan that counts.

If you were to show me your current financial plan, would I get so excited by it that I would go across the country and lecture on it? If the answer is no, then here’s my question: “Why not”? Why wouldn’t you have a superior financial plan that is taking you to the places you want to go?

I used to say, “Things cost too much.” Then my teacher straightened me out on that by saying, “The problem isn’t that things cost too much. The problem is that you can’t afford it.” That’s when I finally understood that the problem wasn’t “it” - the problem was “me.”

The Bible says that it is hard for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of heaven. It doesn’t say that it is impossible!

“What if’s!” Where do you start? What if it doesn’t work?

Get into Action. You’ll see all those “What If’s”,
negatives, and fears fade away. Many are looking to start

willingness to explore, test, track and to realize it takes
your time AND your money to start or improve any business.
As you take action and move forward, your path becomes
clear. You discover new steps to take and you’re willing
to take them. Everyone comes to the Internet with different
experiences, education and ideas. If you’re just getting
started, you must realize that it will take your time and
some money before you get your website, newsletter and
other information just the way you want them. This is part
of the process. The most important thing is for you to just
get started. Take A step, get into action, click on some
links, look, try some of the ideas; buy some programs, some
ebooks. Any of them can move you forward toward making your
living in your own business on the internet.

Move forward keep your chin up. It doesn’t matter how fast
you’re moving forward, the important thing is to be sure
you are moving forward. Stay away from get rich quick
schemes.

Don’t wait until you feel that everthing has to be right
before you take action. It will never be. It never is.
You will always be making changes as you move forward.
Remember, As your business grows, you’re also growing,
and if you keep moving forward, so will your prosperity!
