Why most fail in a business opportunity

The following is a from our mentor, friend and business partner, Franco Gonzalez. I couldn’t have written it better, spoken it more clearly, shared a more powerful and timely message than this.

Most fail because they look for business opportunity

by FRANCO on DECEMBER 23, 2014

I’m here in Hawai’i with my family for the holidays.

HawaiiFrancoPammy2

Pammy and the girls (Valerie & Sammy) have been here for 3 weeks already.

I just got here two days ago.

We’ll be here another month.

It’s beautiful here!

Truly a paradise.

We planned to do this last January.

We made a decision.

The decision was to roll two goals into one.

hawaiifrancopammy3

We wanted to celebrate the holidays in Hawai’i for a few years.

We also wanted to INVEST one month of the year into a meditative and relaxing vacation for our family.

We want to teach our girls (Valerie is 7 and Samirah is 3) that anything is possible in life if you believe it and plan it and take action to manifest it.

We want to embed in their mind that what other people believe is not possible, is not only possible but can be “very normal” if you only believe different, think different and act different. And anything is possible as long as you decide to work hard to enjoy what you do and what you do serves people with tremendous value.

We’re teaching them they can live outside the box when they learn to believe outside the box.

Thinking outside the box is the vehicle.

So, it came to pass that we were able to knock out two goals in one.

The final goal became to start 2015 by showing our subscribers, teammates, coaching clients and affiliates that what some people think might not be possible CAN be possible and even “normal” in their own lifestyle, if they just believe a little bit different, think a little bit different and take more (of the right kind) of action than others.

We decided to start 2015 by taking the whole month off in a tropical place with the whole family…

To show people what’s possible.

So here we are.

Pretty amazing when you think about it, because in the end, it wasn’t “hard” at all…

It was planned.

Why is it then, that so many people trying to build an online or networking business (direct sales) fail to achieve their goals?

I think one reason is that so many people are desperately and blindly chasing “opportunity” and that leads them in the wrong direction.

Here’s what I mean…

An opportunity is a game of chance. A fortified business model builds powerful brands.

Most people think (wrongly) that they have a “system” but…

A System is Only a System When What You Sell Induces Multiple Back-End Upgrade Sales Which Then Induces a Consumer’s Monthly Repeat Order.

IT’S ALL A FORMULA.

Let’s take Disney for example:

Step 1: Give away free cartoons and TV shows on a television network.

The Strategy: Free Content. Free cartoons with Mickey Mouse and Princesses
The Goal: Be relevant.
The Goal: Gather consumers.

Step 2: Gather Customers

Retail #1: Theme Parks
Retail #2: Sell Clothes + Toys + Books
Retail #3: Sell Movies at $20 a pop.

The outcome: 

Profit #1: Induce Loyalty + Brand becomes owned by CUSTOMers.
Profit #2: Exceed Expectations of the Consumer
Profit #3: Get Paid Daily

This Creates Forced Continuity (which looks like):

RESIDUAL MONTHLY INCOME FROM:

Residual Income #1: Disney TV Network & Shows (advertising + syndication)
Residual Income #2: Disney Time Share Florida (financing + monthly club payments)
Residual Income #3: Disney Internet Kid Sites (membership sites pay monthly)
Residual Income #4: Disneyland and Disney World Year Membership Passes

SIMPLE FREEDOM WISDOM KEY #1:

Big Companies Like Disney, Facebook and Apple
Turn Their FREE USERS into  Retail Customers
Who Then Turn into PAY-TO-PLAY MONTHLY FANS

So here’s how I ripped off the internal business CODE of companies like Disney, Apple and and The Rolling Stones and turned it into my “Hey, let’s spend all of January in Hawai’i and increase sales and profits while we do it! “Business System:”

Step #1: Give Away FREE CONTENT like this blog, facebook posts, emails and videos trainings (TNT Tuesday Night Training Videos and Hangouts) and even a Podcast filled with Value First Audios.

The Strategy: Give Away Free (Valuable) Content.
The Goal: Be relevant. Serve Value.
The Goal: Collect Consumers

Step #2: Turn Consumers into CUSTOMers

Retail #1: Sell Solutions (tools) to solve people’s problems (how do I get leads?)
Retail #2: Sell Training. People want to learn how to get leads and sales online.
Retail #3: Sell Simple. Enviralizer starts at just $25. One time. No monthly fees.

The Outcome:

Profit #1: Simple & Easy solutions people like to consume. No resistance.
Profit #2: Induce Loyalty. Serve people. They appreciate it and stay.
Profit #3: Exceed People’s Expectations. They become CUSTOMers.
Profit #4: Get Paid Daily from easy Retail Sales.

This Creates a Forced Continuity (which looks like):

RESIDUAL MONTHLY INCOME FROM:

Residual Income #1: Tool system. Power Lead System pays monthly.
Residual Income #2: Traffic & Leads. Monthly orders equal monthly income.
Residual Income #3: They love their blog. It pays monthly income.
Residual Income #4: They business program. MLM pays monthly.
Residual Income #5: Monthly Coaching Fees

SIMPLE FREEDOM WISDOM KEY #2

For a System to Be a System It Has To
Convert Free Lurkers into Multiple Retail
Sales Which Then Induces a 
PAID MONTHLY AUTO-ORDER!

Here’s what it looks like to Internet Marketers like me…

SYSTEM

It’s obvious when you learn it like this, right?

Look who else does this…

** COSTCO, BJ’s and SAMS Club
** OPRAH WINFREY
** CHASE BANK
** APPLE
** Barne’s & Noble’s
** Movie Producers
** You (if you want to) Online

All big names use this predictable money formula.

This one concept is what (once I truly understood it) is responsible for me being able to build a business online that never sleeps all around the world…

That has allowed me to setup the board so that I can choose to live a truly freedom style life.

It’s the kind of THINKING that led me to set things up where we can (as a family) decide to take the whole first month of the year off and live, play and “work” in a tropical paradise like Hawai’i and actually have business sales and profits INCREASE and not decrease while I’m here.

So I hope this little coaching session today helps to inspire you.

You CAN build something like this too.

You CAN do, live and have anything you truly want because you can become who you need to become by just making a decision to get started on the journey.

Don’t worry if you’ve been spinning your wheels and failing to get results, either.

Everyone makes mistakes.

I sure did.

I failed for 9 long years as I was trying to figure this stuff out.

I started to succeed quickly after I found someone who knew this formula and taught it to me.

My “learning curve” was dramatically reduced once I “saw” this like Neo “saw” the code in the Matrix for the first time.

For more information on how to start putting your own version of this “system” together, just follow me.

I’m on facebook daily sharing information you can use to get ahead.

Get started.

Nothing is “hard” about what I do once you SEE what’s really going on.

It just makes sense.

See why I had to share this with you today?

Here’s what you can do next if you want to model this and not waste any more time:

Step 1: Get this system which we use to create the pages that get this working.

Step 2: Get this solution which is easy and fast for people to buy so you get paid fast too.

We will connect you with our private coaching membership club (free for members like you) where we coach and train you daily with content, copywriting and educational content you can use today to keep moving your business forward.

If you have any questions, simply ask us.

We’re always around…traveling on the never-ending roadtrip.

We have LIVE coaching workshops in San Diego every 90 days.

Ask us about the next one in March 2015 and let’s connect there.

Our goal is to help you get free by helping your teammates get free.

Let’s do it.

Back to the basics of List Building – PLS Review

It’s time to get back to the basics No matter what you are doing in your business right now … stop and get back to the basic foundation that will give you the clarity and control that you are striving to achieve.

Here’s the problem.

Most people join a new business, company, opportunity because they see the possibility of what they might be able to achieve. It’s an emotional decision.

They jump in with both feet, start to talk to their close friends and family about the “biz opp” and when no one gets as excited as they are … their balloon pops and they feel deflated.

No worries, the sponsor say … stay focused, keep talking to people.  Just share the opportunity. And so they start again … sending messages on Facebook, calling people in their phone, stopping people on the street.

Again, most people say no.  And again, their balloon is popped and they drag themselves home, tail between their legs feeling more like Eyeore than bouncy Tigger.

Soon, they have reached their limit. They feel like a failure. They see no prospects in their waiting room and definitely no extra income in their pockets.

Sound familiar?  Have you experienced this or do you see your teammates going through this emotional roller coaster?

Let’s back up and start all over now.  Let’s sit down and have a business talk, instead of “this product will help you lose weight and you can make money sharing it with others” talk.

There are certain foundations you need to set up in order to build a strong, solid business. And one of the very first foundations to lay is building a list.

Without a list, you will be scrambling all over Facebook, up and down the streets, and cornering Aunt Mary at Thanksgiving to join you in your business.

With a list, you collect the emails of people interested in earning extra income, working from home, starting a new business.  They are more targeted than all your aunts and uncles, cousins, brothers, sisters, mom and dad.

So where do you begin to build a list? You find a system that has all the tools needed – all in one place. Otherwise you will be more like a plate spinner in the circus, running frantically from plate to plate, trying to keep track of every separate tool you are using in a multitude of different places.

Find a system that has an autoresponder, capture page creator, sales page creator, email campaigns, tracking, sales funnels, list building and most of all, training and support.

There are many systems out there to choose from. We chose PLS – Power Lead Systems.  Been with them for years, long before they added the awesome compensation for affiliates. PLS is the one stop – all-in-one system with unlimited capture pages, unlimited subdomains, unlimited email campaigns.

BONUS TIME!  Anyone who invests in PLS with us gets premium seating in our VIP Lounge – where there is 24/7 discussion, help, support and training to help you make the most of the awesome system you have in your hands.

BONUS #2:  Many of our VIP group have created capture pages and email campaigns for various companies and organizations.  They SHARE them with you as part of the VIP Lounge.  You have done-for-you content.

Nature’s Way of Showing You … Sowing and Reaping Marketing Tips

Watch … observe…learn from Nature the law of
sowing and reaping in marketing.

It’s Nature’s way of revealing to you how the
whole marketing process to build your business
follows Nature’s way.

We spend a lot of our time in and around Yuma,
Arizona during the winter months.

Yuma County is third in the nation for vegetable
production. In fact, about 90 percent of all the leafy
vegetables grown in the U.S. from November through
March are grown in and around the Yuma area.

You can drive for miles in this area and get a first-hand
view of the lessons of sowing and reaping from nature to
help you as you develop your marketing skills.

Here is Nature’s Way and your way to market:

First step is to prepare the soil, the fertile ground.

 

Its_Natures_Way_Prepare_the_soil_Naked_Hippies_Roadtrip

 

Marketing:  You prepare the soil – you build a list.
This is your fertile ground. This is where you plant the
seeds – your emails, your Facebook posts, your videos.


Next:  Nurture the crops so they begin to show growth.

Its_Natures_Way_Nurture_the_growth_Naked_Hippies_Roadtrip

Marketing: Now you nurture your list.
You feed your list – fertilize them with hope and
belief of all that is possible.  As new prospects make the
decision to work directly with you, you provide support,
you lend a hand, you direct them to the next step.


Next:  Water the crops

Its_Natures_Way_Water_the_Field_Naked_Hippies_Roadtrip

Marketing:  Now you provide in depth training; coaching,
events.  You share tips, tools and resources and
opportunities to quench their thirst for more knowledge
and to find the best path to create their desired outcome.


 

Next: Reap the Harvest

Its_Natures_Way_Reap_The_Harvest_Naked_Hippies_Roadtrip

 

Marketing:  This is when your teammates begin to
produce results. When they start earning income, too.
This is when all the nurturing and training
and watering and feeding comes to fruition.


 

Next, you repeat the process again.  

Its_Natures_Way_Do_It_Again_Naked_Hippies_Roadtrip

 

Marketing:  Because you are constantly building your list,
you always have a new fertile ground to begin the process
with a new crop. The growing season never ends!

The bonus now is that you have teammates who have
learned this process as well, so they are tending to their
own fertile soil (their lists) and following the steps of
sowing and reaping.

Prepare the soil.
Plant the seeds.
Nurture the growth.
Water the fields.
Reap the harvest.
Start a new crop.

Here’s to your most excellent harvest.

P.S.  It all starts with list building.  If you don’t build a list,
you are leaving money on the table. We are building our
list with one tool and only one tool … the Power Lead System.

This system gives you capture pages, email campaigns, autoresponder, tracking, sales funnels, list building AND
complete training and support.  (AND commissions for
affiliates, too!)

I’ve Fallen in Love … AGAIN!

Remember when you first fell in love?

When the world just opened up and
became absolutely WONDERFUL
and SPECTACULAR?

10749042_10202306139369901_208112548_n

You smiled, you giggled, you danced,
you dreamed, you loved everyone …

you kissed, you held hands, you cuddled…

and you especially LOVED your
first love!

The first thing you think of when you
wake up is that love …

you fall asleep thinking about that
love…

you dream of that love.

The world is just crazy wonderful!

Well, I’ve fallen in love AGAIN!

I have fallen in love with list building…
AGAIN!

It’s what we started doing when we
first started online.

We were newbies, we were ready to
learn – and we took action when we
learned how to build a list.

And then, you know how it goes in
a relationship.

You get comfortable …

The passion kind of dies out …

You think there’s something better
out there …

And you break up.

I broke up with list building …
decided I could do EVERYTHING on
Facebook …

thought I didn’t need to keep sending
emails, didn’t need to keep collecting
contacts …

Until NOW!

My old flame has returned!

I am in love AGAIN!

I get love letters in my inbox every day –
“you just got a new sign up”
“you just got 10 new leads”
“you just made a sale”

And all the “gurus” nodded their heads
and said, “YES!”

Ain’t love grand!!!
