MOBE - The One Thing You Need To Succeed In LifePath

Forget about age. Forget about past experience. In fact, forget about your past all together. It won't determine your success in starting your very own LifePath business.

What will you ask?

Desire. Scratch that, a Burning Desire. Sound far fetched? Let me explain.....

I've found that the biggest reason why people fail in starting a LifePath business, or any home based business for that matter, is that they go into it with the wrong attitude. If you think that your buying some magic income generating machine, that runs automatically, then think again. Its those that put in the work in the beginning to set themselves up, that go on to make six figure incomes in a month.

'But Matt, isn't the whole reason for buying a LifePath home based business that you can work less and earn more?'

Sure- look, I'm not saying that you have to put in 10 hour days. What I am saying is that you must be consistent with your efforts, even if its only for one or two hours a day. Personally, I put in three solid hours, but I'm aiming high. Its not so much about the hours you put in, but rather its about the action you take.

I've had associates ring me up and say 'Matt, I'm not getting results, what am I doing wrong, why is this so hard, etc, etc'

Then I ask, 'Ok, so tell me, what have you done today to create more leads? What have you done to develop your leadership abilities? What have you done to help your own team members succeed?'

And then come the excuses....

This isn't really a hard business- the system is there, and has been proven countless times. But its up to each of us to ensure we follow it, and to ensure our own team members follow it.

Here it is;

1.) Generate a lead
2.) Contact your lead, and qualify whether they are right for the business
3.) Direct them to one of our information sessions- eg a webinar, or website
4.) Call them back, and collect a decision.

Easy right?

Till next time my friends,

The hardest phase in starting any business is the beginning. Its here that you either sink or swim.

Twitter Is for Twits

It seems that every week there's some new fang dangle internet marketing tool that is going to change everything.

Twitter is one of them. It's everywhere. People are talking about it on the radio, on TV... heck, last night David Letterman was talking about it on the Late Show.

You'd think with all of these trillions of people using it, that there'd be some way to tap into it and promote your business.

Well, 4 or 5 months ago, I thought that. But to be honest, I've always thought (and I know I'm not the only one) that it's kinda lame.

I mean, who wants to be sitting at their computer writing things like:

'Going to bed'

'Just got a coffee...mmm, coffee wakes me up'

'My dog is out the window- she is a labrador'

Do people really care about that?

Well apparently they do, because everyone's using it.

So I wanted to get in on this and see if I could get new leads with it.

I decided I'd outsource it.

I went on Elance, found a 'Social Media Expert' (don't ask me what the qualifications are for that one) and negotiated a price.

In fact, I was surprised just how cheap it was.

$50 for 1000 followers. Bargain!

The lady expert told me it'd take about a week or two to get a 1000, so it might take some time to build up a following.

Well, fast forward 3 or 4 months, and I now have over 5,000 followers.

5,000 fans, who are hanging onto every word I utter.

And each of those 5,000 have others who can see there page, so there could be tens of thousands of fans listening to me.

I'm practically famous.

So you'd think with all of my fans, that if I just tweeted once or twice about my home business and threwe in a couple of URLs that I'd get at least 10 leads.

I mean c'mon, 10 leads out of 5000 people...that's like a .001% response rate- I'm not asking for much here.

Well my friends, I'm sad to say that after having been doing exactly that for the past few months, the total number of sales I've had as a result of my Twitter tweets adds up to....

0. Nada. Nilch. Not one.

In fact, I don't think I've even got one lead. Not one measly lead!

So now that I'm a little bit wiser, I'm telling you all that Twitter is over-rated.

It's really all just a bunch of hype, and the reason it's become the hot new topic among internet marketers is because there's so much money to be made on selling courses on Twitter.

Either that, or maybe I'm just not doing it right (which wouldn't be the first time).

What do you guys think about this? Have any of you used Twitter and gotten results?

If so leave me a comment, I'd love to know what you're doing to get results with it.
