I have lost count of the number of people who request more information about Carbon Copy Pro, receive a few emails about the business and then throw their hands up in despair when they find out it isn’t FREE.

The application process sifts and sorts for a very special reason, through years of trial and error, not to mention cost by Jay Kubassek himself in creating the system, he concluded that if someone was not willing to part with the 100% refundable $49.95 for an application kit, they would be highly unlikely to part with any further money to fund their business properly either. Having run tests on both free & paid for applications myself I have to agree, serious entrepreneurs will apply anyway.

The real obstacle is the mindset that sees cost rather than value or return on investment and it is probably the number one stumbling block to getting started on the road to success. Every time another free business comes along thousands of people join the business because it’s free but having people join your business amounts to nothing if they do not know what to do with it.

The other type of business to be concerned about is the one that tells you it’s target market is anyone over 18 with a pulse. That is a sure fire recipe for headaches in your down line, high attrition rates and a frustrating role of answering hundreds of questions from hundreds of people expecting success in network marketing to be easy.

I have had the pleasure of listening to the stories of many of the top earners within Carbon Copy Pro and so far I have not heard ONE story of how anyone got started with anything other than an extremely small budget and whole lot of desire, we all just get started with whatever we have – it’s ready fire aim if you want change in your life.

An internet business may not be visible on the high street with a sign above the door, but in most other ways it is exactly the same as any business. A traditional bricks and mortar business will require start up capital, outlay for stock, wages & overheads to find each month before you see any profits for yourself. On top of the running costs you will need to advertise your business to generate enough customers & sales to pay for all those costs and in this economic climate that is a tough task.

The internet business model when compared to all that is extremely low in cost to start up, and the best part for me is that there is an army of people waiting behind the scenes of Carbon Copy Pro to help you every step of the way.

So when you next find yourself hoping to win the lottery before you get started, remember in this business it’s READY – FIRE –AIM.

If you are looking for a helping hand through it all, feel free to contact me through my website www.250kentrepreneur.net or direct by email to dianecossie@googlemail.com

 
 

TELFORD, ENGLAND, April 21, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ — Packed to the brim with a revolutionary sales and marketing system CarbonCopyPro continues to grow in strength with the addition of John Jackson as the new Vice President of Leadership.

As the co-founders of CarbonCopyPro Jay Kubassek and Aaron Parkinson announced the news John Jackson said he was “humbled and grateful” at the opportunity to assist the CarbonCopyPro community.

Born and raised in Oklahoma, John Jackson quickly found success in the healthcare field generating $30 million dollars worth of business. After deciding that family values were being sacrificed for working 60-80 hour weeks at Home Depot he found the network marketing industry and he saw people’s lives changing by being involved in the industry.His success has given him his life and family back and both Jay Kubassek and Aaron Parkinson are honored to have him in charge of Leadership Development within CarbonCopyPro.

As part of the vision moving forward for the company the CarbonCopyPro management have developed and continue to develop not only an opportunity for people to make an income but also for people to be educated and trained to become entrepreneurs.

John Jackson explained, “a teacher finds fault, a leader seeks to develop what the teacher cannot see, we can transition from teacher to leader. Not just to becomefantastic marketers but truly fantastic men and women, improving peoples lives.”

Building a house of leadership based on solid foundations ensures that anyone wishing to take advantage of the CarbonCopyPro opportunity and training will be at the forefront of a whole new generation of entrepreneurs and leaders responsible for creating new wealth in the coming years.

With the new John Jackson Leadership Calls running every day, Monday through Thursday plus access to over 20 other training calls each and every week it looks like the CarbonCopyPro revolutionary sales and marketing system just threw down a new gauntlet to the network marketing industry

 
 

When you first start out in network marketing you are likely to ask two questions after the initial decision has been made and you are ready to start your own home based business. Your first question is likely to be "what do you do" and the second question is likely to be "what do you say."

The first question is a logical left brain question is likely to be answered by the network marketing company you are involved with. By following the duplicable systems that are in place, depending on the company you will be asked to set goals, create a lead generation and marketing plan, have good communication with your upline, sponsor or community and understand the system, products and procedures of your specific company.

The second question is more of a right brain activity that deals with the issue of people skills, feelings and emotions. You have probably heard the phrase people buy on emotion and justify with logic and the two require a different understanding and skill set.

Most network marketing companies and many distributors answer the training needs of this right brain activity of communicating with a left brain logical approach which is why you have often heard the phrases; no selling is involved or just show them the DVD and tell them what they are about to hear will change their lives and you will have people queueing up to join your business.

While this strategy is an attempt to keep things simple it appears to have a fatal flaw that is adding to already tarnished reputation of multi level marketing. It is not an acceptable or comfortable approach for the vast majority of distributors. The logical approach of telling people things and then trying to systemize rather than participate in relationship building first you are likely to see high levels of rejection, frustration in distributors and customers resulting in little or no activity in your downline and high attrition rates.

If you have use Facebook in your marketing plan you have probably become very disillusioned at the amount of "friends" sharing links, adding links to your wall and pitching their business at you in the first email. If you are being honest with yourself you will already know how annoying and ineffective that sort of approach can be.

Just because something is easy to do and works for a small number of people does not mean it works for everyone. Attraction marketing is all about communicating with people, building relationships and ultimately helping others achieve the success they want. The art of communicating effectively is not a logical activity. Most people base their decisions on feelings about changing their current circumstances and that is rarely based on cold hard logic.

People skills are critical to your success and the success of your network marketing business. Without learning these skills you will be missing the skills that define you as a leader and someone who attracts prospects to them, credit card in hand asking how they can join you.

If are serious about becoming an expert in attraction marketing then you will need every book and course Mike Dillard has written. From waiting tables to multi-millionaire he is an active entrepreneur within Carbon Copy Pro. His Attraction Marketing formula is all about positioning yourself as a leader, branding “You Inc” and ultimately increasing your value in the market place. FREE Boot Camp Series Here

 
 

Success means winning, achievement is the goal of life. Every human wants the best life can deliver, nobody enjoys scrimping and living with mediocrity or feeling like you are on the outside looking in but for the vast majority of people who lack belief in themselves find themselves settling for exactly that. Every day all over the country young people start working in new jobs, each hoping that someday they will enjoy a successful career to the top. For the vast majority of these same young people as the years progress they will simply never discover the steps that lead to great heights, their behaviour will match those they see around them and remain "average".

A small number of young people however really believe they will succeed, they have an approach to their work or business of "I'm going to the top" ; "I'm going to become wealthy" ; "I'm willing to do whatever it takes" and with that substantial belief they will reach the top. They believe it is not impossible, they are willing to study the behaviours of successful people, ask questions, get answers, make decisions and adopt the attitudes of successful people.

The "how to" always comes to the person who believes he or she can do it.

So many people who have read or seen "The Secret" set out with great intentions, visualisations and affirmations expecting results to simply show up. Unless you take ACTION and learn how to achieve your goals nothing much is going to change. Success comes from having the belief in yourself that you can create your new life, start a new business that gives you time and money freedom, lose the extra weight, run a marathon whatever you seek to change will require taking different action of the right kind to see the results you seek start to appear.

If you are in business this can actually be HURTING it if all you have is a bunch of plans or structures that aren't bringing you new clients, that are actually converting into sales and making you money.

It's like losing weight you can envision yourself thinner, feeling great and alive, fitting into your favorite pair of jeans but if you don't start exercising, eating healthier and taking steps everyday to get you closer to your ideal weight...then it is good for nothing and affirmations won't help you... at least to get to your goal.

Belief in great results is the driving force, the power behind all great books, plays and discoveries in medicine and science. Belief is behind every successful business, church and political organisation. Belief in success is one absolutely vital ingredient in successful people. Believe you can succeed and you will.

 
 

Any business owner with a retail shop on the high street has probably been praying every night during December 2008 for the much hoped for pre-Christmas rush to the High Street to materialise and translate into sales. The final weekend before Christmas saw High Street footfall down by 8.7% compared with 2007 and with figures showing a slide of between 10%-15% for year on year figures for the week commencing 15th December, you could argue that this Christmas is on course to be one of the worst ever for Retail Business owners.

These figures are bad news for struggling retailers, many of which are struggling to survive. Retailers whose main products are linked to the housing market are likely to be worst hit and the recession looks set to worsen with the ever increasing rises in unemployment figures taking their toll on job security fears.

For anyone who knows what it is like to start their own business, secure substantial borrowings to be able invest in the inevitable start up costs a retail business needs, stock, rent, rates and shop fittings to name but a few but slowing footfall, a shrinking economy, a falling pound and rising unemployment do not really form part of the ideal business plan.

Despite all these economic factors the internet is clearly bucking this trend and can easily provide a solution to independent retailers who can think outside the box. The answer does not simply lie in having a website designed to sell your current shop items online, without a high margin product line it may end up costing you more to advertise than you would gain in revenue. There is also very little knowledge to be found offline about internet marketing and how to use the strategies effectively to make sure your business survives and grows online.

If you are looking to supplement your retail business profits during the recession, you may want to investigate adding a network marketing business to your existing business. We have already seen people such as Donald Trump and Robert Kiyosaki set the trend by endorsing the business model itself but it makes sense to make use of the skills you already have as a business owner when the market trend is so obviously pointing to a survival of the fittest scenario.

95% of business opportunities and network marketing businesses attract people who have no previous experience in business. They know very little about sales and marketing and the idea of spending money advertising and marketing their business is usually alien and is executed from the mindset of cost rather than from the return on investment that a business owner would know and understand. This provides opportunity for entrepreneurs that remain largely untapped.

If the thought of opening up those shop doors every day fills you with dread, make sure you have considered all the possibilities that are open to you. There is no shortage of footfall on the internet; Forbes Magazine has estimated that around half a million people will be looking to start a home based business every month in the USA alone in the coming years.

Retailers already have the skills set that over 95% of opportunity seekers do not possess this is how an internet business opportunity can help save your retail business whatever the economy predictions are.

 
 

Nobody needs to be sold on the concept of an online Internet based business, it will be the way we live our lives in the future and for those who grasped that concept long before I had an opportunity to, I congratulate you on your vision.

Life online is immensely enjoyable although extremely frustrating at times and it requires a lot more discipline than most people realise to build a business online. However the ability to reach and contact the world so easily using technology means that there is a potential for anyone to grow a global business and create financial freedom for themselves within just a few years if they find a business that they love and follow a proven marketing plan.

What Carbon Copy Pro brings to the table is something very special indeed, at $395 for it’s marketing plan, Business in a Box (BiB) you open a Pandora’s box of delightfully user friendly marketing strategies that will catapult whatever you are doing on-line forward by several years.

If your choice is to make an investment in quality training, quality support and quality products then look no further, your ship just sailed into the harbour and all you have to do is climb on board. Once you request more information, you will see that no only does the company have a remarkable marketing plan, but an extremely rich compensation plan when married up with their product ranges. The combination is available separately but in my opinion it would be like having a steering wheel without a high powered car behind it if you simply chose the marketing plan as a stand alone item.

If you have an issue with price, then keep selling whatever you are selling and have a great day, I have previous experience with selling high end items and know that a targeted customer WILL invest if the quality and return on investment for the long term is there, and rest assured Carbon Copy Pro delivers just that.

If you are looking for a fresh look at the market of the future, then you need to request more information today, the saying is to “find a parade” and “get in front of it” springs to mind … Carbon Copy Pro is the professional choice in my opinion of Network Marketing Opportunities that are designed to change the future of not just Network Marketing, but the future of the people who work within the opportunity itself.


On a personal note, I have arrived at this point by taking the long way round, if you are reading this for the first time then YOU have a choice.

You can spend the next months just observing and scrounging up information whenever you can find it. Spend hundreds of hours plus hundreds of dollars learning each piece of what Carbon Copy Pro TEACHES you (that’s why they created it).

Then you can spend thousands of dollars building and implementing it all from scratch only to test and figure out what works or DOESN’T work for yourself .. with no guidance to help you.

You can spend months trying to find all the right resources, trying to find the right marketing mediums and strategies, and spend countless hours a day trying to unlock the mystery. You can do it, but it will take more time and more money than it would to simply take the intelligent option and realise that some things in life are worth paying for. In fact I would say that although the best THINGS in life are FREE, the best ADVICE in life is PAID FOR.

There are many problems network marketers face when it comes to growing their businesses, they have to learn all about their products, compensation plans and company marketing strategies before they feel confident enough to start promoting their products and business opportunities to others.

When that process is complete, a whole new set of skills is required to be able to gather interested prospects to join your business opportunity and learn how to overcome objections and eventually be able to successfully recruit new distributors into your business.

Your upline will demonstrate and encourage you to follow the tried and tested methods used to pitch your business opportunity to every person within three feet of you that will test your comfort zone to the limit. This is designed to develop your character and build up confidence against all new distributors number one fear which is rejection.

There is an alarming attrition rate of new distributors who never seem to grasp this type of duplication and it the biggest problem uplines face because their business and their dream residual income fails to grow.

Building a full time or part-time income with a network marketing business on the internet seems to offer the solution for many, but until now there has never been any company focus on internet marketing training.

There is also an inherent problem for most people who do not know how to market effectively either online or offline and this results in most network marketers spending more money than they are making.

Thankfully due to the expertise of some of the top earners at Carbon copy Pro, they have developed a system that you as a leader should introduce to your downline immediately that offers superb internet marketing training plus over 20 built in funded proposals to fund your marketing.

So no excuses for not exploding your network marketing business any more, arm yourself and your downline with a system devised by some of the top earners at Carbon Copy Pro www.offroadmlmprofits.com

 
 

As anyone who knows me will testify, I am a HUGE fan of Robert Kiyosaki and more recently his wife, Kim who wrote the very inspiring book Rich Woman which sparked the beginning of what I have called my Passive Income March, which began earlier this year.

With the economic crisis in full swing, there has been an incredible amount of interest in what Robert Kiyosaki predicted many years ago about the economic conditions we see today. He joined forces with Donald Trump to write the book, "Why We Want You To Be Rich" and makes reference to network marketing in chapter 27 of the book.

The following is an excerpt I would invite you to read if you are serious about changing your future in the next few years:-

In response to the question "Why Do You Recommend Network marketing?" Robert's response is this :-

"When I first heard about network marketing, I was against it. But after opening my mind, I began to see advantages that few other business opportunities offer.
Long-term success in life is a reflection of your eduction, life experience and persoanl character. Many network marketing companies provide personal development training in those key areas.
Most schools train people for the E or S quadrants, and that is great if those are the quadrants in which you want to spend your life. Most MBA programs are training students for high-paying jobs in the corporate world as an E not a B."

( Key for those who are new to this:
 E = employee,
 S = self employed,
B = business owner
and I = investor)


"What if you're in the E or S quadrant and you want to change? What if you want to be in the B quadrant? Where do you find the education that trains you for that quadrant? I recommend a network marketing business. I recommend the industry for people who want to change and get the necessary skills and attitude training to be successful in the B quadrant."

So in nutshell folks, you can either ignore Robert Kiyosaki for another decade and end up part of the disappearing middle class, or you can actively seek a better life for yourself and your loved ones and join a network marketing company.

 
 

Why a Second Income will not always be a choice. Unless you have been on a trip to outer space then you will realise that the last decade has seen the rise and rise of personal borrowings resulting in debt figures so high, they run into the billions and even the trillions of dollars.

Never before have there been such unprecedented personal borrowings and with the tide beginning to turn on restricting the lending criteria there are years ahead of corrective economic measures to be taken that will have a lasting effect on millions of people. With banks facing financial challenges of their own and people holding on for dear life under the strain of high personal borrowings that run into the tens of thousands of dollars or pounds it is fairly obvious to see the bubble burst in 2008 and the wind of change blew in a new direction.

In October 2006, two immense names in the world of business and personal finance joined together to bring you the book, Why We Want You To Be Rich, the authors Donald Trump and Robert Kiyosaki joined forces to try warn us of the inevitable changes that are set to come. If you have not yet devoured the pages of the book, I would recommend reading it as soon as possible because you will see that we are about to enter a phase when a second or third income will no longer be a choice for most, it will become a necessity.

Donald J Trump & Robert T Kiyosaki united in their message warning that we are losing our middle class, and a shrinking middle class is a threat to the stability of America and to world democracy itself. They want you to be rich so you can be part of the solution rather than the problem.

I have faced my own challenge and overcome the trappings of what is referred to as the middle classes and thankfully I am able to focus on wealth building and prosperity instead through my Network Marketing businesses. If you take time to think through the last decade or so, you will see for yourself that it has been a decade spent borrowing to have something now, and pay for it later.

The problems we see around us today are largely the result of peoples lack of financial education when it comes to handling money, credit and credit cards efficiently. The problem is further compounded by the banks having abandoned the strict ruling on lending, which should be measured against the ability to repay the debt. When you simply consolidate your borrowings and start over, unless you learn the lessons from your last experience you will simply form a life long habit of spending more than you earn, then using your equity to patch it over once in a while you will usually start the same cycle over again. If you repeat it often enough, or long enough you will run out of equity and will face bankruptcy, financial ruin and even the loss of your home, family and loved ones.

Enterprise must replace borrowing if we are to move forward and correct the errors of the last decade. It is only by becoming a nation of entrepreneurs, creating money rather than simply borrowingmoney that true wealth from new money will return. The last decade has been completely false in terms of any economic growth and although not intending to become political, the governments should be ashamed at what they have helped to create and perhaps the giant funding assistance for failing financial institutions they face will serve as a lasting reminder.

With the philosophy of change being inevitable, the world is facing many financial challenges and many of them are still to emerge, including the predicted pension crisis of 2010, the ever increasing retirement age from work and the ever rising cost of living. Even if you have never thought about a second income before, do yourself a favour and start in 2008, because if you do, you will have acted at the right moment to position yourself for the financial turmoil for millions of people ahead who simply didn't take any notice and carried on in ever decreasing circles.

 
 

The funny thing about Network Marketingis it has an "image" problem. It has a history of being full of Pit-bull Salespeople who seem to have no fear of anyone or anything, let alone rejection ( most Network Marketers #1 fear ) and don't forget they spend hours simply being rejected just to count down the numbers to their known conversion rate of 2 or 3 "yes" replies from the 100 or more previous "no" responses. Now objection handling is an art-form, but you have to question the marketing tactics of the Pit-bulls in today's world. ( If you get the chance to read SALES DOGS by Blair Singer I highly recommend it ... just so you know who YOU are dealing with I'm a Poodle not a Pit-bull!)

Having just rediscovered through the power of the Internet that even the Network Marketing world has moved forward through people like Mike Dillard, Jonathan Budd and Daegan Smith, you don't need to read "7 Secrets of Network Marketing Exposed Today" to figure out that the Internet made target marketing in Network Marketing one hell of a lot easier than "just speak to anyone who is over 18 with a pulse."

Mike Dillard is refreshingly frank about what it takes to be successful in Network Marketing and I am a huge fan of Magnetic Sponsoring, so it was an added bonus that HE is also involved with developing Carbon Copy Pro.

Whatever Network Marketing business you are in, put the emphasis on the word business and SHOUT IT OUT LOUD. If people see you are shy, embarrassed or ashamed of BEING in Network Marketing then why would they feel confident that you were having the time of your life. Take the pressure of feeling like you HAVE to TELL EVERYONE you meet about your opportunity, relax , learn the right way and have interested people coming to you.
