Billionaires & MLM

To find out if MLM is a legit business model, let's stop looking at what some people are saying and let's look at what a couple of the world's richest people are saying. . . and what they are doing!

Warren Buffet:

Warren Buffet has now surpassed Bill Gates as The World's Richest Man. He did this solely through smart investments. This should make him the ultimate authority when it comes to making money.

Recently Warren Buffet bought the MLM company "Pampered Chef" for one billion dollars. In a press release Buffet said, "We are extremely excited by The Pampered Chef. Doris Christopher has created from scratch an absolutely wonderful business". See the official Berkshire Hathaway (Warren Buffet's company) press release here. . . www.berkshirehathaway.com/news/sep2302.html

Warren Buffet also recently purchased "Discovery Toys" which is another MLM company.

Now, if the richest man in the world is putting over a billion dollars into an MLM business model and says it's "an absolutely wonderful business", then that's proof that it's a business model that works.

Donald Trump:

Donald Trump has teamed up with best selling financial author Robert Kiyosaki and wrote a book on creating wealth called "Why You Want To Be Rich". In their book they recommend some MLM programs because it gives people the opportunity to quickly create their own business.

When Donald Trump was on the David Letterman show in 1998, he was asked what he would do if he lost everything and had to start over again. Trump said he would find a good network marketing company and get to work.

A member of the audience shouted out a "boo" and Donald's very quick reply was - "That's why I'm sitting up here and you're sitting out there!"

If two of America's richest and most savvy business people are turning to MLM, then it should be considered a viable business model that is worth diving into.

Need Motivation

I don’t know what to say really.

Three minutes to the biggest battle 
of our professional lives
all comes down to today.

Either we heal as a team

or we are going to crumble.

Inch by inch

play by play

till we’re finished.

We are in hell right now, gentlemen

believe me

and we can stay here

and get the shit kicked out of us

or

we can fight our way

back into the light.

We can climb out of hell.

One inch, at a time.

Now I can’t do it for you.

I’m too old.

I look around and I see these young faces

and I think

I mean

I made every wrong choice a middle age man could make.

I uh….

I pissed away all my money

believe it or not.

I chased off

anyone who has ever loved me.

And lately,

I can’t even stand the face I see in the mirror.

You know when you get old in life

things get taken from you.

That’s, that’s part of life.

But,

you only learn that when you start losing stuff.

You find out that life is just a game of inches.

So is football.

Because in either game

life or football

the margin for error is so small.

I mean

one half step too late or to early

you don’t quite make it.

One half second too slow or too fast

and you don’t quite catch it.

The inches we need are everywhere around us.

They are in ever break of the game

every minute, every second.

On this team, we fight for that inch

On this team, we tear ourselves, and everyone around us

to pieces for that inch.

We CLAW with our finger nails for that inch.

Cause we know

when we add up all those inches

that’s going to make the fucking difference

between WINNING and LOSING

between LIVING and DYING.

I’ll tell you this

in any fight

it is the guy who is willing to die

who is going to win that inch.

And I know

if I am going to have any life anymore

it is because, I am still willing to fight, and die for that inch

because that is what LIVING is.

The six inches in front of your face.

Now I can’t make you do it.

You gotta look at the guy next to you.

Look into his eyes.

Now I think you are going to see a guy who will go that inch with you.

You are going to see a guy

who will sacrifice himself for this team

because he knows when it comes down to it,

you are gonna do the same thing for him.

That’s a team, gentlemen

and either we heal now, as a team,

or we will die as individuals.

That’s football guys.

That’s all it is.

Now, whattaya gonna do?

CrossLoop - A way to help those in need (on the computer at least)

Perhaps the world is not as big as it once was....

Well, at least the internet has helped to make things a bit smaller. When it comes to helping a friend or family member with computer related problems there is only one solution that is far superior to the others - its called www.crossloop.com.

The idea behind it is simply: a friend needs help on his or her computer and you have the skills to help so you CrossLoop with eachother!



Here's how to do it: You both go to CrossLoop download the free software and set up a free account. Then you and your friend sign in. You (the helper) will "Access" while your friend (the one in need of help) will "Share" their access code with you. *It helps to be on the phone with eachother. Then you simply type the access code in and connect to your friends computer!

Once connected you will have the ability to view their screen exactly how they see it and move their mouse so you can show them how to solve their problem. Beautiful.

The entrepreneur behind this has really out done himself. Bravo, Bravo. I have used it quite a few times to help my mom with some of her issues on her computer. And keep in mind that I live in New York City while she lives in Arizona. Now that is some serious distance, and yet I now have the tools to help her as if I am sitting right in front of her on her own pc.

Also, It currently only works on pc's so sorry to the mac users out there. And here is CrossLoop's Blog.

For those entrepreneurs wondering how they can take advantage of this awesome tool; how about using it as a way to show, collaborate, and help other entrepreneurs.

Here's how you can reach me through www.crossloop.com/DallasHarting

A Revolutionary Entrepreneur - Marc Ecko

His name is Marc Ecko. Think: revolutionary, young, energetic, passsionate, inspiring, wild, out-of-the-box, pure, and definitely out of the norm. That list could go on and on but the point is that he is a young entrepreneur who has an extremely successful company and a great outlook on life. If you are an entrepreneur and you think that all business owners are the same old guy then you need to research this guy.

You can start with this video from Marc Ecko Entreprises.

It is awesome what he has done...

I will not spoil it - read it from the source himself

The Power of Groups and Networking

What a novel idea...

Go online to find places, things, and people to meet with offline in the real world. If you have not heard or had a chance to visit www.meetup.com then I would strongly suggest you get to it! Recently, I set up a free account and did some searches to find things that interested me in my area. I found a number of groups in my area that I would have no idea existed if it weren't for meetup. Below, I have listed some of the events that interest me.

NY Tech Meetup - I first came across this group because I have always been very interested in technology, gadgets, and computers. One of the best things about this group is that I get a chance to read the posts that all the member write about technology. What a way to learn about new websites and technology! I feel much more in the loop and who knows what kind of entrepreneurial ideas I can conjure up from this group.

New York City Entrepreneurs - I have just recently joined this group but I am hoping to meet other entrepreneurs who are energetic, passionate, and driven. "Birds of a feather, flock together."

NYC Web Design - I have always had a strong interest in web design. I am hoping this group will help connect me to some professionals who can help guide me onto the right path to developing even more of a skill within this field.

Law of Attraction - The Secret had a very powerful and positive impact on millions of people. This group is about getting those people together with the same type of mindsets and that is why I felt it was a must for myself to be involved with.

Restaurant Owners & Managers - I have been interested in the nightlife industry for some time now and networking with restaurant owners is a great way for me to get established. I also find that owners in any business to all have fascinating stories and successful guidance advice that any entrepreneur can learn from.

I am sure there will be more groups in the future for me to discover but in the mean time good luck to all you fellow entrepreneurs looking for others with the similar mindsets and passions for life...

It is wonderfully put together and it will really make you think about where we may be going. Astounding...

Personality Quiz with Path101.com

Just recently, I completed a personality quiz on Path101. I found it to be very interesting and I especially enjoyed the fact that path101 then took my results linking them to industries I might be interested in. I have posted my own results here in this blog. Based on my results, Path101 told me that I may have the personality for Sales, Direct Marketing, Investment Banking, Career Education and Coaching, and Art and Cultural Institutions. I am involved with Sales and Direct Marketing now so that seemed to line up quite accurately and I also found it quite interesting that Career Education and Coaching fit my personality because that is a passion of mine. To be great in anything in life, how can you not help others in one way or another? That is a mentality I have adopted and that is why coaching is so crucial in my life. I also think that based on my results I could work with many different types of people and still be effective based on my teamwork traits. Anyway, overall path101 has a great quiz that seemed to match my personality traits pretty accurately and I would highly recommend it to others that may curious how their own may turn out. And for an entrepreneur, I think it is crucial for them to know their strengths and weaknesses so they can be most efficient and effective in their businesses.
