New Business

I have not been paying much attention to my blog lately. I have been busy with businesses and have neglected to post here.

After much thought and after working very hard at various businesses, I have come to the conclusion that MLM and Network Marketing are not for me. My reasoning for this is because I feel that when something new or a new idea comes out, it is unique in its own way. Very soon everyone is copying it and it is no longer a niche. For example, I thought MLM Lead System Pro was one of its kind when I first found it. Well, it was one of its kind, but very soon there were others duplicating it and now it seems that every solicitation I receive is just a different name and version of MLM Lead System Pro. One thing I can say for it, is that the marketing training was much more advanced and I learned a ton of things that I probably would not have learned had I not been involved with it.

The way I look at it, is that I can now take what I learned and apply it to my own thing. One thing I do agree with, is that you must position yourself as a leader, but with everyone duplicating these business types, we know that the only true leaders are the ones that created these programs and everyone else is just copying and pretending to be as much of an expert as the creators.

I feel that we need to learn all that we can---never stop learning so we actually have something of our own to give to others and we can be leaders in our own right.

I have decided to stop getting involved in all of this hype. Actually, I'm really very tired of all of this hype and feel that is has wasted my valuable time. Although, I have no one to blame but myself.

I have decided to put all of my skills and knowledge in one package and market myself and my own business to those who want and need my specialized services. I have so many skills that I can use to help others in their businesses to help them grow and take care of the tasks that need taken care of so they can have the time to do other important things in their businesses. I will be what is called a Virtual Assistant. I will market to small and medium businesses and take care of many projects that need done for them and they won't have to hire a full time or part time employee or a temp. I will work by the hour and when the project is done, it is done and they won't have to pay an ongoing employee to stay on and do nothing in between projects. They also won't have to pay taxes on payroll, provide health insurance or any other benefits. And when their next project rolls around, they can use my services again.

I am just getting started. My first step at this is setting up the type of business that I will be. After much thought, I have decided to set up as an Limited Liability Co. (LLC) instead of a sole proprietor. This way I have all the benefits of being a sole proprietor, but not with all of the liability that comes with it.

Today I am going over and filling out all of the paperwork involved with this so I can get started. I will be posting all of the steps as I progress through this process. So, until tomorrow......

GLOBAL DOMAINS INTERNATIONAL - GDI

I have found another very lucrative business that makes sense. It's called Global Domains International, GDI.

In my opinion, the reason it makes sense is because the internet is growing at lightening speed. As more people lose their jobs, they are turning to the internet to find something they can do at home to earn money. To make money on the internet, the name of the game is branding yourself so the internet community gets to know you and gains your trust.

You have to have something of value to give and then people will trust you and follow you. Create a niche for yourself, get all the education you can so you can give to others, help others and in turn, you will reap the benefits of success.

My point is that with GDI, you and others can brand yourselves. Domain names will always be in demand and with this company, you can brand yourself, help others brand themselves and earn money at the same time.

In my opinion, it is a very unique business and like I said before, the domain name business does not fluctuate with the economy. Internet marketers NEED domain names and the NEED branding. What could be better?

This business is very easy to get started and is very low on investment. You also get to try it out first. The training is awesome as they give you all the tools that you need.

Give it a try. You really have nothing to lose, and if it suits you, you have everything to gain.

Good luck!

VN VIRAL NETWORKS CONTINUED

I just wanted to add a little bit of information regarding my last post of the video regarding VN Viral Networks.

I feel that this business networking site is very well worth joining. You can send 3000 emails every 3 days and send messages to your downline every 5 days. This is on the Gold membership which I highly recommend.

If you market your links and people join using your link, you start to make money. They provide banners and sample advertising copy to use in promoting your link. They also have a blog set-up to get your business known even more. There is much much more that I haven't gotten into yet,but I fully intend too. The first time I sent everyone in my group on Facebook a message about VN Viral Networks using their promotional materials, I received 5 people that joined me. I think it is worthwhile networking on this network. It just opened not too long ago.

There will be more later as I continue to use their tools.

FACEBOOK GROUP WEB ADDRESS

If you aren't on Facebook yet, you might want to get started with a profile. It is a great place to network your business. I've got over 1,000 business contacts and I have over 400 in a group that I created. My high school graduating class is also connecting there and we have our own high school group for our class reunion in July.

Click above and check out my group! You could be networking just like this and getting more leads for your business! There are other networking sites that I will share with you later. I'm just in the process of seeing how well they work for business networking. When I've been networking for a while longer, I will share them with you, but only if I feel they are worthwhile! There is nothing so frustrating as wasting your precious time!

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!

I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday! I wish peace, joy and good health to everyone always!

This year I had a very quiet, but wonderful Christmas. There is so much to look forward to in 2009 and I have so many goals I want to accomplish. FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION. There is too much at stake for that!

Veretekk Continued

I've been working everyday on Veretekk and it is proving to be very profitable as far as marketing is concerned. I work on certain tasks everyday, get thousands of leads in my various marketing portals. I send an email out to them asking them to verify and approve of me to send them further mail. I then create sequential mailers to go out to these leads. In the system, I created sequential mailers (letters) to automatically go out every 7 days to all the leads that verify. It is important to get their permission so as not to send out spam. I created a marketing center for 997MakeMoneyNow, Purple Cowboys, so my sequential mailers are a series of Purple Cowboy letters. I have been getting leads in my 997makemoneynow back office as well as in my Veretekk back office. I have even gotten people that just join me in 997makemoneynow and Veretekk that I have not even spoken to yet. Of course, I call them and offer my support because I am their sponsor. I am still thrilled about how this all works. Generating my own targeted leads! And I absolutely know where all of them are coming from. That sure beats buying leads and not knowing how old they are or if they are really targeted to my business as the lead generators claim.
