Although this is a bit off topic, I wanted to take time to look at a website that hits close to home. My grandfather passed away six years ago from lung cancer, and when the chance to review a website that could possibly put a stop to cigarette related deaths came up, I couldn’t resist.

Smoking is the cause of multiple diseases and causes millions of deaths each year. Can you quit smoking? Sure you can… you just need to know how.

How about a program that helps smokers quit with a 97% success rate? That’s incredible! This program can help even the most stubborn smokers quit!

Don’t waste hundreds or even thousands of dollars trying methods that have up to a 75% fail rate! These programs don’t work, and the creators just keep making more money because the people trying to quit keep paying! My grandfather could have quit if this system had been around when he was alive… don’t end your life with cigarettes, learn the most inexpensive and effective way to quit at www.stopsmoking4steps.com.

The results are proven… One of the greatest new stop smoking products to hit the market that actually works!

Stop smoking now, and make yourself, friends, and family happy.

PeopleString: What is it? Why Should You Join?

DirectSalesGuy — Mon, 14 Jun 2010 01:31:49 +0000

There are a lot of social networking sites on the internet today, and more are springing up daily. Those who run the People String social networking site claim that it has a lot of unique features worth looking at. First of all, there are two membership levels in the site; free membership and a paid membership called the “Entrepreneur Package” for a one-time fee of $200. Members get commissions for recruiting paying members to the site. Members also earn a share of the site’s ad revenue, according to how active they are within the site. Commissions are multi-level, meaning that you can have a payable downline a few levels deep, depending on your membership level.

In addition to being able to earn money being a member of People String, there are some features unrelated to earning that are unique. One that stands out is the “self destructing email” feature. You get your own program email address, and you can elect to send an email to someone that will literally self-destruct after a certain amount of time, with a little fire graphic and everything. There could be some practical purposes for that, but most people use it for fun! The program offers video email as well; all you need to use it is a video camera or web cam.

Even if you want to be a paying member of the People String social networking site, you can still sign up for free and then upgrade. Signing up for free means that you can look around a bit before making your final decision. Paid members get significantly higher commissions, more email accounts, and their own domains, among other features.

What we like:

PeopleString ‘Where You Own the Web’. It is the new wave in relationship and social communities
Gives you a share in the revenues that are created by the users of the website
PeopleString gives its members back 70% of the revenues
You can join for free!

We like the idea of PeopleString and think it will grow. Click here to find out more!

Pyxism: The Hottest New Thing in Travel? We Think So!

DirectSalesGuy — Mon, 14 Jun 2010 01:27:33 +0000

What is Pyxism?

Travel is one of the most lucrative enterprise for the average home-based entrepreneur. Lloyd Wilson, a veteran network marketer and previous owner of a travel-based company, recently started a company called Pyxism (named after the constellation in the Southern hemisphere; and Latin for compass). He has literally reinvented the extremely popular 3 x 2 matrix program compensation plan and developed a program that will appeal to the average marketer as well as the superstar salesman. Although the superstar might find himself at a slight disadvantage and the average person may be on top with this program.

Here is a program where success is greatly possible by teamwork and sharing. Wilson revolutionized the 3 x 2 matrix and removed the problems experienced by last-year’s predecessors and evolved it. Pyxism will be a name to be reckoned with in 2010 and beyond. He did not plan to launch until June, 2010, but early leaks pushed the plans forward and now – even before launch, the company boasts members and teams in over 20 different countries. A great opportunity to get in early and succeed quickly.

What we like:

Pyxism offers the best of class in travel and vacation products that you can enjoy or give as gifts. Pyxism is
Pyxism is Better Business Bureau Accredited with an A Rating!
Unlimited Income and Wealth from One-Time Out-of-Pocket Purchase!
$1,500 per cycle (unlimited cycles) paid on PYXISM’s customized fast moving 2 by 2 cycling matrix with “True Follow-Me” software
No monthly auto-ships or other costs ever!
4 different wasys to fill your matrix and to get paid!

Direct Sales Marketing Tips: How to Book More For Your Direct Sales Business

DirectSalesGuy — Fri, 05 Feb 2010 05:48:57 +0000

I came across a really great article and wanted to share it with my readers… enjoy!

Generate More Bookings with Ease in Your Direct Sales Business

By: Tammy Stanley

If you want to generate more bookings in your direct sales business, and you want to generate those bookings with ease, you need to look at reasons why your prospects would want to book a home party with you in the first place. Most direct sales consultants think that the reason their prospects book a home show is to get free product, and that’s why they almost always lead with getting free product as the reason to book a home party.

What if you could improve your results by digging deeper and finding an even more compelling reason to book a home show, would you want to do that? If so, pay close attention to the marketing lesson within the following story of how I developed a large group of people to want something I offer.

There’s really only one reason people read my weekly ezine. Some would say that they read it because they learn so much from it. Others would say they read it because they think I’m such a good writer. But those are not the real reasons why they read it. There’s truly only one reason they read it at all.

The real reason my subscribers read my weekly ezine is that I present them with an offer they can’t refuse while signing up for my it. Here’s my offer: “Learn 3 simple secrets to building an empire in your direct sales business by giving me your first name and email address.” You see, the real reason my subscribers read my weekly ezine is that I begin by generating their interest with an offer of something they actually want. So what does all this have to do with you and achieving success in your direct sales business? Keep reading because you’re going to start seeing some similarities.

A major point I want you to understand is that no one reads my ezine because I say, “Hey, wanna get a free ezine targeted to the direct sales industry from me every week?” It’s true that I could have asked that of each of my subscribers, and maybe a few would have said, “Yes.” But the majority probably would have said, “No thanks.”

Likewise, you can jump-start your direct sales business once you pick up the phone and simply ask a few casual acquaintances if they would consider hosting a home party demonstration to get some free products. However, asking someone to host a home party demonstration for that reason would be similar to me asking you if you wanted to get a free weekly ezine. However, even that activity can generate bookings in your calendar, therefore, another major point is: Activity overrules inactivity any day of the week.

But the secret to generating new bookings with ease is identifying something that your prospects would love to have and then presenting those prospects with an irresistible offer. You have to get inside your customers’ shoes and really ask yourself, “What do my customers actually want?” If you think the answer to that question is “free products,” you haven’t thought much about your prospects.

Let’s look at my offer. When I thought about my prospects I knew that I could offer them a free weekly ezine filled with direct sales tips and direct sales strategies. But I had to ask myself, “Do my prospects actually want that?” In order to discover the answer to that I simply pictured my prospects going to bed at night and not being able to fall asleep. What was keeping them awake? Well, certainly not this thought, “Oh, if only I could get a free ezine targeted to direct sales! Then every thing would be all right.” HA! FAT CHANCE!

I knew that if anything in their business were keeping them awake at night it would have something to do with difficulty, how this business isn’t as easy as they thought it would be. Then I thought about things that could really help make this business easier. And ultimately I narrowed those things down to three things. Still another major point is that I didn’t just say “3 Things to…,” I said, “3 Simple Things…” You see, I know that my ideal prospects want and need simplicity in their business because their lives are already busy and complicated enough as it is.

The other thing I considered was that the bigger my prospects build their business, they not only earn more money, they experience leverage. By the way, “leverage” is another word for “opportunity” in project/risk management. By telling my prospects that I had 3 simple secrets to building an empire in their direct sales business, I capitalized on several of their desires – simplicity and leverage of time and money.

Hey, I can actually picture my prospects going to bed at night wishing they knew an easier way to make money and wishing there were a few more hours in the day! Do you ever go to bed with either of those thoughts?

What I’ve just shown you is the secret to generating new bookings with the people and strangers you meet every day. Offer a solution to one or more of their challenges. Stop offering free products (for example: a free facial) and start offering something they want (for example: taking 3-5 years off their face). You need to think about the problem to which your products are the solution. Yes… this just might require some deeper thinking on your part. Final major point: if you skip this, you’ll be veering off the critical path to building a truly successful direct sales business.
