SECRETS TO SUCCESS IN NETWORK MARKETING?

this is by mark januszewski

The only secret you need to know is the one guru’s and generic tool peddlers know…….and don’t want you to know.

There are no secrets to network marketing or, for that matter to success.

See, if people can get you to believe there is a secret or two…..or a magic way to get prospects online that are ‘pre-qualified’…..they can sell you something.

These bottom feeders leverage your inexperience, impatient and fear to get at your credit card.

Before you know it you are spending more time on these ‘secrets’ and ‘shortcuts’ AND promoting this guru who has earned a dime for you…….than your own business.

So, let me repeat…..there are no secrets…….only people who want you to believe that so they can sell you stuff.

WE ARE ALL SCARED

I’m close to 20 years of succeeding and before I did, I failed for 5 years. That’s 25 years.

I’ve never met anyone who joined an MLM, mine or countless others from other deals who had all the time and money they wanted BEFORE they joined.

Most of us finally look at networking when we are in pain over time, money or both.

We are scared. Oh, we might not admit that but the situation that trigger our decision and trying something new is going to create some fear.

It’s normal.

It’s my story and probably yours too.

Deal with it as a successful person deals with things.

That is the key.

LIKE ATTRACTS LIKE

Success thinking attracts success…..fear thinking? Well….

Don’t kid yourself by comparing what you are feeling on the inside to what other people’s outsides.

Successful people, both in and out of MLM have some fear….most of it healthy they just do something different with it.

And no, this is not some new-age or Zen solution coming at you.

We’ve been blessed to be asked to speak all over the world. After we do, we get lots of kind words and always a few people who comment on how relaxed and comfortable we were and it made them relax about networking.

We always tell them the same thing, the thing that turned us into coveted speakers…..

“Show me a speaker who isn’t nervous or scared and I’ll show you a bad speaker.”

It’s true…we just know what to do with that fear, what all successful people so with fear.

KNOWLEDGE

Most fear is a lack of knowledge, certainly in business it is…..

Successful people

1.get the knowledge, reduced fear
2.create a written plan to put knowldge in play
3.practice, shrinking fear
4.put it in play, courage built on confindence from 1&3
Network marketing, truth be told, is easy once you realize you’ve been doing it since you were 6 years old…..you learned about stuff from some kids, told others and told your parents; about a baseball glove, a movie or a new ice cream stand.

All occupations are the same….they have a couple ‘traction’ points…..points that will ‘drive’ income.

We all talk to people everyday

It’s no mystry in network marketing…..it’s talking to people and learning a couple network marketing skills just means learning how to talk to people rejection free without pressuring them or ourselves.

When people enroll, we simply give them network marketing help by teaching them they already know how to talk to people.

I wouldn’t call it rocket science or a secret…..I’d just call it the truth…..

“If we are going to make some money, we need to talk to people.”

Commercial Real Estate Investing

Real estate investing has been made out in the media to seem like it’s the best thing since sliced bread. This in no small part due to late night cable television infomercials espousing the high deals of no money down or next to nothing down real estate investing. They make it look like anybody can do these commercial real estate investing deals easily. You will be shown, how by just writing things down on the back of napkins, you have the makings of a real estate fortune. Things will reach boiling point when supposedly real interviews are held with people who have succeeded wildly after using the promoter’s commercial real estate investing system.

It is a fact that real estate fortunes can be made. More often however, the person who’s making it is the guru owner of the real estate course! Truth be told, real estate investing is a lot harder than what you are led to believe. Every buy, sell or renting of real estate involves dealing with people directly. Unlike stock transactions, there are no organized exchanges to keep things standardized. Furthermore, the courts are more sympathetic and protective toward delinquent family tenants. Another common problem is many real estate rehabbers take on drifters to do odd jobs. Instead of fixing up the properties, they do more damage than good and usually end up disappearing after getting paid an initial amount. Lots of real estate investors are burned this way.

You still have to take many years to learn how to assess the value of properties in a town or neighborhood. You also need the street experience in negotiations so that you don’t lose out the profits that you originally thought you had. The main point here is real estate investing, whether commercial or residential, is best thought of as a business. It needs your dedication and constant education. Moreover, if you are working full time and you invest in real estates, you will be losing your free time to collecting rentals and doing rehabs. You will need to cover the mortgage out of your own pocket if the property does not sell, or when tenants are not able to pay up on time. You want to enjoy the fruits of your labor, not leaking out your time and salary to patching up hiccups in your real estate investments. If you enjoy cookouts and trips to the beaches, you might want to consider the stock market rather than real estate investment. Both are part-time businesses, but which one leaves you with more free time and less income fluctuation?

Real Estate Investing - Avoiding The ‘Frequently Made Mistakes’

Real estate investing has been the American dream. However, it’s not for the faint-hearted, many have lost money because they made mistakes. It’s a risky business so you need to know the ‘how to’s or you could join the ones who lost money rather than made it.

You know what some real-estate gurus tell you - Real estate investing is easy! It’s as simple as finding a low-priced property, getting it painted, plant some greenery, and wait for buyers to fight for it - so they say. They entice you into real estate investing by telling you it’s possible without even putting in a dollar.

A common scenario is someone who invests over a couple of thousand dollars for one of these Real estate investing seminars with some hot-shot investing guru. Excited about the prospect of making enough money to retire on, they become convinced that real estate investing is their answer. Only a year or so later, and they’ve realized that investing isn’t a quick fix, and it takes more than a seminar to be successful.

There are many pitfalls that new investors can make which we can only cover a few of - but at least it’s a start. Here are three of the main ones.

If you go into real estate investing emotionally, and not as a business venture, you’ll definitely lose out. What does this mean? Well, say you find a property that you immediately fall in love with. It’s so cute, it’s got a pretty garden, it’s got character etc. You will be making an emotional buy and not an objective one that should be considering the suitability of price, for tenants, and even resell prospects.

The less knowledge you have about real estate investment, the more risk you’ll be taking. Investing blind means buying real estate as if your eyes are shut - such as blinding believing all you’re told at real estate seminars or agents. You must do your research; read and read and then read some more on the subject; ask others who have been successful and learn from them. Just a little lack of knowledge could mean that you end up with a bad buy.

Many real estate investors have fallen due to lack of cash flow. This is the key phase for survival in the investing business. Not having cash reserves makes your position very risky and shaky. Sure you can use your credit but credit needs repayment. And that investment property will have hidden costs. The more pressure you’re under the easier it is to make silly mistakes. Make sure you allow for sufficient cash flow.

Research is only as good as knowing what to look for. An example; say you were investing using the ‘fix and flip’ technique which means re-selling quickly for a profit.

Say you buy a property that looks like it fits all the requirements. You spend a little bit of time researching and checking zoning requirements. All seems good and you spend money and time doing it up. Only to find out that you hadn’t checked requirements carefully enough and you’ve created an apartment block with too many apartments for the zoning area. Guess who’s going to be out of money? Do your reading for knowledge and your research for reducing risk.

So, you’re ready for your property to be tenanted. Don’t rush in and accept the first people who apply. It’s very gratifying to know that someone wants to live in your newly acquired property, and the cash would definitely come in handy with bank bills to pay. But it is well known by long-term real estate investors that bad tenants cost a lot more than a couple of weeks waiting for the right ones to come along. Screen your tenants - choose carefully. Getting references is a good start.

Summary:

To succeed in real estate investing you need to read for knowledge and research to reduce risk. Then you won’t get sucked-in by real estate investment gurus offering you the world for nothing.

Beginning Real Estate Investing - The Worlds 1 Wealth Builder

It’s a fact… at least 80 percent of all millionaires have built their wealth in one way or another with real estate and the good news is today it can be easier for you to do than ever before.

“I wish I had bought 5 years ago”… everyday someone asks me; “when’s the right time to buy”?… today! (Real Estate Guru Ozzy Jurock)

Yes, in 5 years today will be 5 years ago! When is the best time to get started? Today. It’s a mistake to think that you’ve missed out, or there aren’t any more good deals out there. Remember Mark Twain’s famous quote… “Buy land, they’re not making more of it!” If you live in a big city and the prices are just too high for you to get in the market, you need to look at smaller towns several hours away where the prices may be just a fraction of what they are in the big city that you live in. You must investigate, locate, then negotiate.

Before World War Two only the rich could buy real estate, but since then there has been an almost unlimited supply of mortgage money. Even better, these days there are so many lenders that they are fighting over each other to lend you money. And gone are the days when you had to have 20% of the down payment in cash. Because of this fierce money lending competition most financial institutions will give you the mortgage you need for 100% of the property cost.

Investing in real estate is also the easiest and safest way to create wealth… can you image going up to your banker and asking for a $200,000 loan to buy some really hot stock you just learned about? I don’t think so. But find a great property and you’ll have no problem because there’s no chance it will lose it’s value, unless there is a natural disaster and for that there is insurance so this doesn’t have to be a risky business.

Top reasons why real estate is better than any other investments:

1. You build equity while using it (living in it)
2. It’s a tax shelter
3. Possible investment returns of 40%, 50%, or more
4. Great leveraging with OPM (other people’s money)

… with a small amount of money you can control a large amount of assets - if you put $10.000 down on a $200.000 property that means with just a 5% down payment you control a $200,000 investment.

Also, with some creative strategies, you can buy real estate even if you have no money. You can’t do that with gold, silver, bonds, stocks, and art. Look seriously at real estate investing, it’s the world’s number one wealth Builder!

Real Estate Investing-From Cash to Properties

You Only Need One Great Idea to Get Rich — And This Is It!

In case you missed this last time I wrote …

How’d you like to “dabble” in real estate with me? No kidding! I recently came across a brand-new opportunity that made me so excited, I broke out into a sweat.

The program is called “How To Beat The System in Real Estate” and it is absolutely amazing. A real estate guru by the name of Thomas Kish created a complete business system based upon his own experiences as a successful investor.

Basically what he’s done is taken his expertise and packaged it into a mini “franchise.” So now anyone can duplicate his system - yes, even you - even without experience. And here’s the best part:

You don’t even use your own cash to get started!

Among the many things you learn right away is how to set up a new business (it’s really simple) and then get a new business line of credit. (You use the bank’s money to invest.) This business credit line has nothing to do with your personal assets or personal credit score.

Look - I am sure that all this sounds to good to be true. But it’s not. You’ve got to check it out for yourself. I’ve pasted in a copy of a letter that I received from Thomas Kish. He tells about his program in detail, and more clearly than I ever could.

Note that the system is a proven, money-maker and backed by a rock-solid guarantee. The only way you can lose is by not giving it a shot. C’mon - read this now …

From the desk of Thomas Kish at http://www.cashflowexperts.biz/cmd.asp?af=344232

Here is the lesson that will put you ahead of 99% of all real estate investors …

USE AS LITTLE CASH AS POSSIBLE! Yes, you read that right! The days of mortgage burning parties are long over. But you will still meet people who believe that it is a good idea to pay off the mortgage on a property so that they can have big cash flow. Why do people want to own real estate free and clear? Because they believe it’s the way to make more money. But let’s do a little number crunching: THE OLD WAY Use $40,000 of your personal savings to buy a house with 20% down and get a loan for the rest. You may cash flow $400 per month. And on this one house you will also be getting … A. Equity build up like a personal saving account. B. Good appreciation as the house goes up in value. C. Great tax deductions that will lower your tax bill. THE NEW, SMARTER WAY Use an $80,000 new business line of credit instead of your own CASH and buy 2 houses. You may cash flow $200 per house per month for a total cash flow of $400 a month. And you are making money on TWO pieces of investment real estate instead of one. You’re also getting … A. DOUBLE the equity build up. B. DOUBLE the appreciation. C. DOUBLE the tax deductions. AND YOU NEVER USED A DOLLAR OF YOUR OWN CASH. The entire down payment came from a new business line of credit! ———————————————— Do you want to see the step by step system on how to do this? http://www.cashflowexperts.biz/cmd.asp?af=344232 GO THERE NOW! Pssssssst … Want to hear a bit more? Looks like I’m giving away the farm today! But, it’s worth it if it helps you understand the incredible power of the system you’ll be getting. Okay, here goes … There are other simple ways to do this no money down stuff and get FOUR houses instead of just two. For example, the simplest way to do no money down real estate deals is by getting your credit score to stay above 680. Then you find a good mortgage broker that offers 100% LTV* real estate financing to the clients that they work with. *LTV = loan-to-value; the percentage relationship between the amount of the loan and the appraised value or sales price (whichever is lower). IMPORTANT: Make sure that your mortgage broker has closed this kind of loan recently with a REAL client. You want to know that they have experience closing these kinds of loans. Forget about your bank. Find a mortgage broker that has already done 100% LTV loans. Don’t let them tell you that they can do it. Make sure you verify that they have already done it many times. Next, write your purchase agreements with wording on the addendum that states the deal is … SUBJECT TO SELLER PAYING $4000 OF BUYER’S CLOSING COSTS. Now you have reduced your cash needed to close by $4000, if the seller accepts. And if the seller says “No” … Just tell them you will raise your offer by $4000 so they can pay your closing costs. NOTE: If you are making offers on real estate that has rent paying tenants, the seller will be giving you the rents and damage deposits when you close the deal. When they turn this CASH over, you can use it to pay for the property in most cases. —————————————————- Is there a better way? Of course! The best way to buy real estate is with a system that gets you cash advances from new business lines of credit. So check out the ULTIMATE NO MONEY DOWN real estate system and learn how to … 1. Get a new business line of credit. 2. Find foreclosure deals. 3. Set up partnerships. 4. Calculate the profit in a deal. 5. Improve your credit score. Go see what my clients have to say about this system at, http://www.cashflowexperts.biz/cmd.asp?af=344232 Remember that the only things that can stop your financial success is: Lack of knowledge. Lack of capital. Lack of a mentor. And Lack of action! YOU ONLY NEED ONE GOOD IDEA TO GET RICH. And you just found it. All you have to do now is act on it! http://www.cashflowexperts.biz/cmd.asp?af=344232 You know that real estate has proven to be the safest investment in any market. That’s why you make money in real estate no matter where you live, and no matter what kind of interest rates prevail. As the saying goes in the real estate business: Good times are good for investors. Bad times are good for investors. Go see how easy it is to get started at: http://www.cashflowexperts.biz/cmd.asp?af=344232
