Hey Friends!
Today we're going to talk a little about opportunity;
> What is it?
> How to find it.
AND...
> What it will mean for you and your family once you take heed and run with it.
So, what is OPPORTUNITY? Random House Dictionary defines it as a good position, chance, or prospect, as for advancement or success.
Many people talk about this word without having a truly clear meaning of the word. We use the cliche' "Opportunity only knocks once!" or "When opportunity knocks, you better open the door".
Let me tell you now, RARELY does anyone ACTUALLY take in these sayings, and lives by them. We're so used to them, that we plain out ignore them. Or, we become so insecure within ourselves, that we don't ever think that opportunity will come our way. Truth of the matter is that opportunity knocks more often than once. Some of the time opportunity rings the bell instead of knocking on the door.
So what's the problem? We were never taught how to recognize it. If it didn't say OPPORTUNITY on it in big bold letters, we sim[ply ignore it, or are sketpics of it.
Think about this.
How many times has someone pitched a SOLUTION to you based off of the problem you presented to them, only for you to ignore it and try to solve the issue your way?
How many times have you complained about money, then someone comes along and presents a way for you to solve your money woes 10 times over, but you chose to try and do it your way?
How many times have you talked about how you're not being "paid what you're worth" then someone tries to put you on to an additional income stream,OR a better paying employment opportunity, but you tell them "it's not for you"?
Ladies and gentleman, that is opportunity with a capital "O" banging you over the head with a sledge hammer.
Looking at it from a business stand point, the one slowest to capitalize on an opportunity, is usually the last to finish.
So don't live your life in the "what if" phase from not hopping on the chance to change your life. Become a little bit of a risk taker. You may be pleased that you did!

What is your Drive?
Hey friends!
Anthony here.
It's been almost 2 months since my last entry, and I wanted to bring you something fresh from Anthony's Brain!!! Just kidding, but it will be fresh.
Today I would like to talk about Drive. What is Drive? According to www.Dictionary.com, it means to send, expel, or otherwise cause to move by force or compulsion. If we go with this definition as it directly relates to your life, and/or business, your drive is your motivation. Motivation to do what? Achieve everything that you want to achieve. Most successful people set a goal with a deadline, put a plan of action into place, then take off running without looking behind.
Successful people aren't necessarily so different from you and I. But the difference lies in the fact that they take MASSIVE action to achieve what they set out to do. Think about it. How many times have we said "I'm going to work and get that promotion" or "Next year we're going to take that family vacation we always talk about"? Then something strange happens. Suddenly, something in life distracts you from hitting those goals. Someone at work upset you, or your company decided to downsize. The family vacation gets put on hold because unsuspecting bills arise and they take priority over anything else. And there we go. We give up. We give up hope, faith and happiness, then blame it on someone else.
Let me ask you, is there something in your life that you set forth to do never get done because life got in the way? Do you thinnk that life doesn't get in the way for those setting out to achieve their goals as well? The answer to that is, of course. But what successful people do is keep pushing forward and not let the obstacle deprive them from their goal.
The drive makes all of the difference. Drive keeps a car going in inclement whether, or treading uphill. Drive keeps the Donald Trump and Robert Kiyosaki on top of the financial pyramid through this so-called "recession". Drive is what keeps Lance Armstrong, Micheal Phelps, Venus & Serena Williams, Tiger Woods, Kobe Bryant, Tom Brady, etc. at the top their game. Guess what? You can do this too. Set your goals, commit to them then use that DRIVE to get their. "Success is not the destination, but the journey itself".
So put your drive to work for you. In the long run, you'll be very happy that you did!

Aim To OVER-FILL Your Pipeline of Prospects
Too many people ride the 'feast or famine' roller coaster of having clients, especially SUCCESSFUL entrepreneurs. Some months they have almost too many clients and are WAY too busy, and other months, they're feeling the pinch. The well is dry and they're digging their well when they're thirsty. I've been there in the past, and there's nothing worse than experiencing those two extremes on a regular basis. It'll make you want to go back to Corporate for good! (NOT ME!)
You've heard me talk about my NO EXCUSES approach to getting clients. That means that the number one rule I have is that I do SOMETHING to bring clients or client referrals towards me every single day. Otherwise, you'll find that no matter how good you are, your pipeline will eventually dry up.
The key is to shoot for OVERFILLING your prospect pipeline. Most people just shoot for having SOME people in it. That's not enough. If you aim for something WAY bigger than what you've already gotten so far, you're more likely to reach even a medium level, than if you were to aim low.
When I talk to my clients about this, the number one answer that comes back is, "But what if I get TOO many prospects? What do I do then?" I've even heard, "What if I get TOO big? Then what?" That's when I usually laugh out loud and say, "GOOD! That's a good problem to have!"
There are at least 2 solutions for having too many people wanting to work with you at the same time:
Put them on a waiting list. It's OK to do this. What you'll actually notice is the opposite of what you might think would happen. Instead of leaving and saying, "I don't want to wait," most prospects will chomp at the bit to find out how high up on the waiting list they are and will want to see if they can do anything to start earlier. It's actually VERY Client Attractive.
Leverage your time and efforts by creating group programs and charging less than your regular one-on-one fee. You'll end up being able to work with MORE people at once AND make more money per hour or project than you would with a single person. Leveraging is one of the best things ever "invented" and having too many prospects is one way to set yourself up for this.
So, how do you get to this point? Discipline. I've often said that I wasn't born a very disciplined person (or organized for that matter) but as a result of having a full practice and wanting to keep it that way, I've taken the NO EXCUSES approach to marketing. So, I've worked on setting up systems, being organized (or getting help with it) and learning to master the discipline thing.
That means doing some marketing every single day, no matter how bogged down you are with work and existing clients. Get that newsletter out the door, rip out the newspaper article and send it to an existing client or prospect, send that quick email to the association asking if they accept outside speakers or write a thank you note. Whatever! Just make the time for it and do it.
The key is to do SOMETHING that stimulates future business and referrals because the reason that most entrepreneurs have financial problems is THAT, nothing else, especially the seemingly successful ones. They go to work and only do the work, while everything else gets backed up, especially the marketing.
Your Assignment:
Make a list of the little things you can start doing DAILY for OVERFILLING your pipeline. Then, make the time for it. Yeah, yeah, I know you're busy, but maybe it's first thing in the morning, before you even open up Outlook to check your emails. Maybe it's right before you turn off the office light and close down your computer. Again, it doesn't matter, as long as you make a commitment to doing this for the rest of your career. Catch my drift?
It's actually easy once you get going. You'll find that you'll never experience that feast and famine again. Guaranteed.
Now, if you need ideas for what to do DAILY to overfill that pipeline, I suggest getting a copy of the Client Attraction Home Study System?. I've outlined every secret in detail, and it's all there so you can start using it all right away to get similar results. In addition to the exact techniques that have worked for me (nothing sales-y, I
promise!), the System includes everything you need to know to prioritize what to work on first, clear the decks and set up simple, solid systems to consistently fill your pipeline and continually get new clients. It's all step-by-step, not a big mishmash of things. So, you do step one of the system, and when you're done with that, you move on to step two, and so on. That's why my customers have gotten such great results from it. All the tools, scripts, templates, and examples are handed to you on a silver platter. So easy. You can get yours at www.TheClientAttractionSystem.com.

This is not just another MLM company...
Greetings All! Anthony here...
The purpose of this blog isn't to sell you on a worthless product, service, or "get rich quick" scheme. In fact, this isn't intended to be a "niche" or a "sales" type blog, but rather informative about the services we do provide.
Too often do I get emails from marketers introducing the "next big thing" without any clout or proven track record that those things are even legal. They blurt out ridiculous claims to making grand amounts of money with little to no work at all. And even if those claims were to be found true, besides the money, what have you done to enrich another's life?
I just got off of a team call with a few of my business associates, and we were discussing the services that we provide. We went over our monthly goals and different marketing strategies then something clicked with me... we're not ordinary! I mean that in the most positive way (smile).
Here it is, we offer people the power to have a voice by having access to legal counsel with the flip of a phone and you can call them as much as you like without costing you an extra dime! We offer people protection and restoration in the even they are claimed as an Identity Theft victim! We offer people access to an attorney in the wee hours of the night, when not even some of the rich have that type of luxury! The list continues but at the end of it all, as a way of saying thanks for being a member, they throw in a Living Will at no extra charge!
Ladies and gentlemen, the service is great, wonderful and all of that, but they then offer you a way to make money just by sharing this info with others!
Okay, I know it is starting to sound a little "salesy", but I digressed a bit because it enriches people's lives all around. We gave our own testimonials as to how this company has helped us, not only financially, but emotionally as well.
How could so many people not see this as a great thing to have for their family and loved ones? Only 1.6 million families have seen this vision, and made the conciencious decision to grab these services because it just makes too much sense to do so. Pre-Paid Legal Services is not to be taken lightly. We're a non "ME TOO" company, who has branded ourselves as the leading expert in this field.
I am very proud and honored that I am able to share this blog with you today. This is not just another MLM company. We're changing lives for the better even is the business side isn't for them, the membership is for everybody! Get yourself in while it's still a little known factoid. The Life Events Legal Plan will show your loved ones that you cared enough about them to get them protected.
Well that's my spiel for the evening. For more information, you can go to: http://www.prepaidlegal.com/info/hawkesa
Thank you for your time, and I'll see you over the top!

Are All Autoresponder Leads the Same?
When choosing what kind of auto responder leads to purchase, keep in mind that the best price is not always the best option. You might pay twice as much or more for one type of lead over another, however if your ad pulls 3 or 4 times better with the more expensive lead it can be well worth the extra cost.
Typically, the cheaper quality the lead is, the less targeted they are and often times the less emails that get through and opened. This is why you have to buy considerably more of the lower quality leads to get the results you are looking for.
There are many schools of thought on what type of auto responder leads works best. Below is a quick overview of the different types available so that you can better gage for yourself what is right for you.
There are basically 3 main Types of Autoresponder Leads:
1) Double-Opt In Autoresponder leads. These are leads that fill out a form requesting information and have received an email to verify that they are indeed interested in learning more about whatever offer they had requested information on. After they have verified their interest, they then become a lead. These leads are typically more expensive because they are pre-screened for email delivery and interest.
2) Tier 1 Opt-In Business Opportunity AutoResponder Leads. These are considered premium autoresponder leads because they are generated on advertising networks that typically attract higher quality traffic and are qualified as business opportunity leads. These leads genuinely Opt-In to receive information about making money with their own business.
3) Tier 2 Bulk AutoResponder Leads. These are generally collected by various methods including free offers (fill out this form to win an IPOD), opt-out (where a person has applied for something or a free offer and there are several boxes that are pre-checked that they would like additional information. Whether they do want more info or if they do not notice the check boxes and uncheck the boxes, they become a lead), and various offers where they are agreeing to receive information from partner sites or other free offers not necessarily targeted to business opportunities.
Though technically these leads are opt-in leads, they are not necessarily targeted for an interest in a home based business. This is one of the most common leads sold as an opt-in auto responder lead because of the inexpensive prices.
Which type of lead is right for you? It really depends on what you are marketing, your budget and what kind of emailing capabilities you have. Test out different types of leads and you will quickly figure out what works best for you.

After they have verified their interest, they then become a lead. These leads are typically more expensive because they are pre-screened for email delivery and interest.
2) Tier 1 Opt-In Business Opportunity AutoResponder Leads. These are considered premium autoresponder leads because they are generated on advertising networks that typically attract higher quality traffic and are qualified as business opportunity leads. These leads genuinely Opt-In to receive information about making money with their own business.
3) Tier 2 Bulk AutoResponder Leads. These are generally collected by various methods including free offers (fill out this form to win an IPOD), opt-out (where a person has applied for something or a free offer and there are several boxes that are pre-checked that they would like additional information. Whether they do want more info or if they do not notice the check boxes and uncheck the boxes, they become a lead), and various offers where they are agreeing to receive information from partner sites or other free offers not necessarily targeted to business opportunities.
Though technically these leads are opt-in leads, they are not necessarily targeted for an interest in a home based business. This is one of the most common leads sold as an opt-in auto responder lead because of the inexpensive prices.
Which type of lead is right for you? It really depends on what you are marketing, your budget and what kind of emailing capabilities you have. Test out different types of leads and you will quickly figure out what works best for you.
You friend in business and in life,
