That's Just Not What I Want
The other day I did a video...
I said there was a home and small business revolution going on...
You can see it HERE
And there totally IS...
The winds are blowing...
Things are changing and people are getting SMARTER
You see...
All it takes is a little INFORMATION to change the world.
Gutenberg invented the printing press and BOOM...
The world changed...information was flowing...
Newspapers...radio...television...the internet...
All created information flow and with each innovation
Society TILTED because people were becoming more informed.
Why the backlash after Vietnam but not WWII or Korea???
Because people could SEE what was going on...
Right in their living room...
In living color.
And today the same thing is happening in the home business world.
A few marketers have pulled back the curtain and for the FIRST time the little guys
are SEEING what has been going on for DECADES.
And I can't blame people for wanting MORE
Finally they are able to see how it is done...
And people want to do it too...
And they are buying information products in DROVES to
learn more and more with the dream of creating MILLIONS
ONLY ONE PROBLEM
Along with the millions comes HEAVY responsibility.
Always has.
And no one is talking about that.
Think about it...
What kind of responsibility did Dexter Yaeger carry to build an organization of that size?
What did Mark Hughes go through to build Herbalife? Mary Kay?
What did Mike Dillard do to create his empire?
I watched him.
I remember when Magnetic first came out as a product for him MLM team.
I saw him build brick by brick over many years.
Building something like he did is HARD.
It's not all milk and cookies with a few marketing funnels thrown in.
The people who build these companies did some very specific things and studied some
very specific business concepts.
They were not part of a "tribe" and they did not spend their days writing blog posts
or researching key words to get their article ranked.
(And for the record...I am NOT mocking my colleagues who sell info on these topics or do these activities
and you will see why in a minute so don't jump to conclusions)
Building large organizations, membership programs, info product companies etc
is about making a decision to take on a HUGE responsibility...not only for the
running of the company but for the education of the masses.
And I SALUTE each and every one of my colleagues who has made the choice
to carry that burden.
You are amazing people and amazing instructors and BRILLIANT business people.
They have the privilege of impacting thousands and the excitement of making A LOT of money.
And also the responsibility of running affiliate payments, payroll, handling employees..media buys,
TAXATION issues(huge changes coming for 2010) etc
They have to know it all or hire people who do.
They are not toodling around making amateur videos at Starbucks <LOL>
They are running CORPORATIONS around a board table (and occasionally a ski slope..
But that's another story)
I just really want you to UNDERSTAND what's involved.
I want you to be CLEAR on what these guys do.
And then there's me.
That's just not what I want.
People ask me all the time...
Diane..when are you gonna _______
You really should __________
You'd make a fortune if you ___________
And I giggle.
Yes...I have studied all of this great stuff.
YES...because of it I make great money and enjoy a great lifestyle.
I get to travel...teach and do all the stuff I LOVE.
But here's the deal...
I have a 17 year old daughter.
I have ONE YEAR LEFT before college.
I have a 14 year old daughter...
Only a few years left with her as well.
And I figure if I can make a lot of money while playing and having fun
with them...
I'll pass on the millions.
At least for now.
Who knows...
I have the rest of my life to figure it all out...
And maybe someday I will want that.
But not now.
I got into all of this for FREEDOM.
And that is what I got.
And that is what I teach.
How to build a list of people who fall in love with you and buy stuff from you.
That's about it.
I could care less about big organizations...
I have a ton of little ones.
I could care less about key words...
I know how to attract a crowd on my own (I was taught by a street performer of all things!)
I could care less about hits, click and analytics...
My phone rings off the hook.
What I care about it PEOPLE
And teaching a few what I figured out.
How to really be a stay at home mod, dad, artist, musician (or whatever you do)
and make a GREAT BUCK.
So if you hang around me and are looking for more..
SORRY.
That's all I got.
If you want MORE...
I can tell you who to go see.
Some of my esteemed colleagues who are just freeken smarty pants
when it comes to all of this.
But I am not that.
Cause I was the MORON who sat in the Herbalife training (my first biz op) in 1999
and believed them when they said it was Fun, Simple and Magical.
And it IS!
Just not the way they taught it.
But the way I figured it out.
And shortly I will open a home for those of you that fell like I feel and
want what I wanted.
A LIFE and some money to live it with.
But at my house there is no payout...no affiliate program..no commissions
You don't need them from me as when I get done with you you will see money EVERYWHERE.
It's all around you.
You just need to put your hand out and the money will drop in...
SERIOUS!
ME...
All I have is simplicity
Just a community of GREAT PEOPLE and HELP...
Hands on..not 1000 people with you on the wrong side of a webinar banging your head against the wall.
Real live help...for a reasonable price.
And tools to help you do what you need to do.
That's it.
That's what I have wanted to build for those that need it.
And coming soon..
That's what well have.
