Diane Hochman

Hi Liz,
I'm with you! I love the content of the Newsletter and especially enjoyed reading about one of my newest BFFs, Diane Hochman. I am inspired to be more than I am today because of Her Story...I also thank YOU, Liz, for your continued support, love and bringing me into the "fold". Gratefully, Jen Seabrooke

Way To Go...BN + DH = WIN!

Thank you BetterNetworker for providing a place for Home Business owners to gather and be exposed to some of the most prominent leaders and information on the internet today. I especially enjoyed this month's interview with Diane Hochman. I've been following and tuning in to Diane's sincere help, advice and training for frustrated as well as seasoned marketers. She is a true inspiration with a genuine style all her own. I have no doubt that a marketing legacy is in the works that will continue for years to come. Thank you Diane, for being a leader I can trust.

Diana Lewis — Thu, 09/02/2010 - 7:26pm

What A Great Story!

Thanks Better Networker for honoring the Home Business World with this article.

Businesses that get talked about are driven by a higher purpose, by a passionate owner or team mission. It's about creating something people want to connect with. It's an honesty that is hard to define but can not be faked.

You usually know when you come across someone like that simply by the way you react to their story. It's not really what you do as much as why you do it. Diane connects...she has a higher purpose.

Lee Keller — Thu, 09/02/2010 - 8:41pm

The Ride Has Just Begun!

I am honored to call Diane Hochman, not only my mentor, but my friend.

Almost 3 years ago I was searching for the real deal, I found that in Diane.

No hype, no fluff, just real business common sense training.

And now as I work together with Diane as we open The Home & Small Business Network,

the ride has just begun.

Ever since I met Diane, and was given the code, taught real business skills,

it became my passion to pass it on, and that is exactly what we are doing with our new journey.

The Mission is simple.

To move to a higher level of business, to create a professional atmosphere and to move with integrity.

And to help as many people build a successful business.

And I'm so excited for the ride!

Diane's story is an inspiration that no matter what your circumstances are right now, what your past has been.

That you can move forward starting today, and an amazing future is ahead.

You just have to BELIEVE.

Diane TRULY Has Created a ROAD that others can Follow...

Congrats Diane,

When I met you and hear your story I totally indentify with you because, I wanted so much to stay home with my children, but with no income and knee deep in debt. Your story inspired me to know that if you CAN DO IT I can do it too. As you have mentored me and taught me what I know, I can truly say you have created the ROAD that others can follow. Because of this, I joined you as a colleague in Home and Small Business World and Network.
Your love for teaching is tremendous and you have created a place that will TILT this industry and bring back Clarity to having a Home business.

Diane it is my pleasure to stand with you as a part of the Leadership Team that will take the Home and Small Business Network to NEXT Level. So look out world here we come. Congrats again Diane.

Your Friend Cheryl

The Road Less Traveled

Congratulations Diane!

"Two Roads diverged in a wood, and I -
I took the one less traveled by, and THAT
has made all the difference."
- Ralph Waldo Emerson

Diane, in the 4+ years I have known and worked with you...
YOU never took the road that everyone else traveled on.

and now...

You are getting the recognition you deserve!

Thank you for your inspiration and integrity..
and the privilege to walk with you on the
Leadership Team for the Home And Small Business Network!
We are gonna change the language of this Industry!
Congratulations!

The Narrow Path

You know Diane...

Even though I've been hanging out with you for the
last 20 months...

And have been like "bread soaking up gravy"
with your teachings...

Makes me realize not only how similar we are...

And our stories almost parallel, just with different
characters of course...

But it makes me really see the need for what you
and the crew over at Home And Small Business
Network are doing for the industry as a whole...

Because I know, that there are thousands, if not
millions with stories similar to your's and mine...

Who have the dream inside and know they were
born for something big, yet haven't found the way.

Cheers to YOU, Diane and the narrow path you've
taken which in turn, has created and carved such a
safe way for others to follow.

The Legacy of Diane Hochman

I had the great good fortune to stumble upon Diane Hochman
on March 17 2009 - yes I remember the date

I was invited to a conference call and Diane was one of the featured speakers

She laid out a challenge on the call (she always does if you listen closely)

You don't have to get it right, just get it going and when you do; the help, the the resources and people that you need will find you

"Just get it going,remain consistent and have faith. Good things will happen to you - Trust me" (-Diane)

I trusted Diane, as have many others that I have met during the past year. The transformation and business success that I have witnessed in myself and in others that have applied her advice, has been un-paralleled in my 30 years in small business.

Diane walks her talk, AND she answers her phone. If you choose to walk the path, Diane is right there when you need her; providing support, guidance, knowledge and even the tough love when you need it.

Diane wanted to be more than fair, forty and super successful. She wanted to help others to become who they always knew they could be. She has proven her commitment to me many times - over-delivering on every occasion

Read her story - Live her example - Hang out with her - She is the real deal and her only agenda is to help you to become you better at whatever you choose to be. Your success and the success of 10,000 people will be Diane's Legacy.

Now what will yours be?

Diane is the Reflection of Persistance

Better Networker thank you for featuring such a true inspiration to this industry. I have followed Diane for a while now and have found she is a true leader.
A true leader speaks the truth, what people really need to hear rather the what they want to hear.
These are the kind of people I love having in my life and I suggest everyone have a mentor like Diane.
Someone who will tell it like it is

That is also what I have liked about Mike Dillard
He speaks the truth

If offends you, there is a reason

Diane, congrats on your success and as always I love
chatting with you on twitter

Wishing you the best,
Jeff Faldalen

My Kind of Cover Girl!

I've known Diane for more than 8 years and she has NEVER changed.

Her challenges, successes, learning curve, skill sets, yes they changed, but Diane...

NOT A LICK!!

She has always cared about people, their success and ways she could help them.
It's probably the one thing many of you have in common with Diane!

She never forgets that.

It is her passion. Her driving force.
She lives it EVERYDAY and her business is what it is today because of that passion.

I am proud to be part of the leadership team birthing the Home and Small Business World community.
A place you'll always be reminded to be YOU and to "just get it going"! You CAN do it!

Diane is my friend, mentor, and colleague. I am delighted to see her FEATURED here at BoBN.

Well deserved chickadee!

Terry Apger — Fri, 09/03/2010 - 2:26pm

Diane Keeps Things Real

First of all, congratulations Diane.

I've known Diane for a while now and received training from her and I can tell you I've learned more from her in a short period of time than I have in 4 years.

She tells it like it is. She tells you what you need to do.

When she speaks to people you know she is passionate about helping others. You don't see that in people everyday. But if you aren't willing to help yourself, she lets you know.

Her honesty is what I admire best about her. What else can you ask for?

WTG Diane!

Just goes to show YOU, anyone with desire can do IT!

Besides being blonde and beautiful...you really are a SMART lady!!
You have given an incredible amount of advice to people all over the world, and have changed more lives than anyone I know.

The best part is you started off as a dumpy house wife with no clue, got your PASSION and made it to the big time!!

BUT, the "big" time difference is that YOU have never forgotten where you came from!

Awesome stuff, Foxy!!
I am proud to be a part of this AMAZING ride at Home and Small Business World, with the gang and beside of you.

Here's to helping 100,000 people learn who we are and what we stand for!!

Touching Thousands

It's so great to see Diane receive the recognition that she deserves. She is as real as she appears here in this magazine. Her heart is as big as the sky, her way of teaching so precise but so entertaining and real, that if you follow her, you will find your way to pursue your passion, and touch and improve the lives of thousands. I am proud to call her my friend and be part of the Home and Small Business Network.

Diane amde it big despite all the odds!

Diane's story is not only real and down to earth but so inspirational to many people in this day and time.

It's difficult to build any business, but add on top of that a mountain of debt, a low self esteem, a non existent marketing budget and 2 small children?????

Diane you are an inspiration to me and so many, and many more need yet to hear it. It is an honor and a privilege to walk beside you!!!!

Thank you for paving the way to the top....I am coming :)

A True Inspiration

No matter how many times I hear your story it still empowers me. The fact that you came thru so many challenges yet became the shining star, Cover Girl, that you are. You are not only an amazing teacher, speaker, mentor to many but a Rock Star mom as well.

Living Proof that if you have enough Passion and the right teachers anything is possible.

Thank you for being a huge part of my journey.
