"It got wet, so I took it off"

She was 3 years old and she was going to go next door and play with her 4 year old neighbour in his brand new kiddie swimming pool.

In her bathing suit, she left only to return 10 minutes later, stark naked.

When Mom enquired where her bathing suit was, her 3 year old logic replied, "It got wet, so I took it off."

I did that.  No, not take off my bathing suit but I jumped into the pool of training at MLSP, got wet, didn't like it and got out.

Not out of MLSP but out of one particular pool.

VIDEOS !

Didn't like doing them.  Didn't like the way I looked.  Didn't think I knew enough to be able to develop a loyal following.  Had every excuse under the sun why I shouldn't do them. 

BUT .......... there is too much evidence around stating that You Tube videos are hot for lead generation.

I knew I had to jump in and immerse myself in that particular pool. 

Back to the MLSP site to seriously check out the video training.  Seriously this time.  With no hesitation.  Embracing every idea and suggestion they offer.

So I did.  A young man on my team has agreed to take the challenge with me.  Ninety consecutive days of videos.  Posted to YouTube.

We're getting together on Friday to brainstorm ideas, get organized, incorporate the videos into our daily plan of action.

Our video campaign launch will be next week.

We're getting wet in a big way.

If you want to jump on board, connect with me.  You can do the challenge right along with us.

We'll get wet together in that huge pool of potential leads just waiting for us to get on our bathing suits and jump in !

Beware comfort zone, you're about to get a lot bigger,

Fantastic Story!!

Joyce, I love the way you are able to weave stories into your training messages. All the while admitting that you are human just like the rest of us. We all have fears and challenges and we all need to face them to grow.
Great Article!

Catchy Title Joyce!- BTW What Keywords Did You Rank For? LMAO!

Great Headline and story Joyce. You definitely made me click on your article. Good analogies!

BTW-I can't stand how stupid I look on Youtube with my distorted faces. LOL! I'm sure you look better than me. Lol!

BTW-So I went to Google Instant Search to see if anything funny came up with any of the words in your title and DARN IT! Nothing! You're in the clear. Lol!

Not What I Expected To See!

I'm in Joyce! I can do 90 videos in 1 day! I love looking at myself! I must admit, it doesn't matter what I talk about, people just love watching a car wreck! Let's do this!

Ben Bradley — Tue, 09/28/2010 - 12:05pm

Not for the faint hearted.

Thanks Cheryl.
Lucien - Does that mean you are in? It's a challenge and I know there are going to be days I sure won't want to do it. But breaking that comfort zone barrier is crucial.
Ben - Private message me and we'll talk. Start date is October 12 but we want to have a list of topics set up to start with. Your input will be appreciated !!

Joyce Penner — Tue, 09/28/2010 - 2:07pm

I always wonder where you're gonna end up...

Another great article and an even better idea. To put yourself in public stating your intention like that is getting some serious leverage on yourself. Not to mention having accountability partners. And daring the entire community to join you. Good strategies for ensuring you follow through.

As for me, I'm still working on overcoming procrastination, but I'll think about it... :)

90 Days of Videos

Joyce,

I have to say this made me smile! Then it made me cringe! Shooting a decent video can be tough enough but finding 90 days of decent content...WHEW!

Sounds awesome though! Count me in!

I have found something that works really well for me. It's making a list and shooting a hand full of short video's in one session then editing and releasing them.

Unless you are doing a technical presentation a couple of minutes is fine and even the detailed vids need to be short. We are all developing such short attention spans!

I look forward to hearing more!

Tom Bradley — Tue, 09/28/2010 - 3:44pm

Hey Tom

That's what I want to do on Friday. Brainstorm with the group to come up with topics. I think if we get 30 to 45 on a list we'll be cool, then we can meet again for another brainstorming session.

Everyone's content of course will be different but if we can just bounce ideas of each other it will make it a lot more fun and create the synergy of a dynamite group.

Glad you're in. I'll keep you posted.
Joyce

Joyce Penner — Tue, 09/28/2010 - 6:44pm

Joyce I'm a Procrastinator but I'd Like to Be In

Joyce I'd love to but I've been too busy answering hate mail on Better Networker. LOL!

I'd like to say I'm in but then I'd get blasted if I don't follow thru.

So I will be a spectator on this one. BOOO!

But you totally ROCK Joyce and I can't wait to see your videos.

Lucien Bechard — Tue, 09/28/2010 - 6:48pm

Thanks Lucien

Forget the hate mail. LOL
We'll miss you ! But it is going to be a challenge and not everyone is going to be ready to commit.

I've been so procrastinating that it's time to stop. And that time is now !
Joyce

Joyce Penner — Tue, 09/28/2010 - 7:05pm

You Rock Joyce

LMAO! Actually there's no hate mail. Just trying to be silly.

BTW Joyce, you are always popping up all over Better Networker.

I see your smiling face all over this site everyday.

It seems like you've got a little secret that you aren't sharing with the class.

Naughty Naughty Shame on You!

Lucien Bechard — Tue, 09/28/2010 - 9:28pm

Are Your Ears Ringing Joyce?

The Target's on Your Back Now Joyce.

It's time to step up and speak. Are you ready to share with the class?

We are dying to hear the Queen speak.

Read what everyone is saying about you below.

Step up to the Mike!

Lucien Bechard — Tue, 09/28/2010 - 9:39pm

I need to join!

Seriously! I am so videophobic! But I want to increase my public speaking skills! I only have one video up, and I think it's really terrible. It doesn't help that my computer lags immensely when I open up a video-editing program, so all I have is the raw feed from my old beat up camera from '07!!

So please let me in and hopefully we all can brainstorm ideas together!

How Do You Get Rid of the Play Sign in a Youtube Video?

Hey Joyce, or anyone, how do you remove the play button that covers up my ugly mug on Youtube?

I can't figure it out. It's driving me nuts.

I know my face doesn't look like a play sign. LOL!

Lucien Bechard — Tue, 09/28/2010 - 10:14pm

Hey Lucien

That's a Richard Bravo question. Now where is he?
Richard? Richard? Where are you?

Thanks for the plug Lucien. I just read it and laughed !
Joyce

Joyce Penner — Tue, 09/28/2010 - 10:42pm

Rasheed

I'll post on BN here where we decide to do our brainstorming session. It may be a webinar and then we can write out all the ideas that come up during the session.

I'll keep you posted.
Joyce

Joyce Penner — Tue, 09/28/2010 - 10:43pm

No Problem Joyce! OH Richard Where are You?

Singing-Where OH Where have Richard Bravo and Ferny gone OH where OH where can they be?

PS-Glad you got a laugh Joyce.

You deserve the exposure because you are always putting up good content here.

Lucien Bechard — Wed, 09/29/2010 - 5:29am

Joyce Seriously What is Going On? This is Getting Ridiculous!

Alright Joyce,

What is your deal already?

You are completely hogging the 1st 2 slots on Better Networker under Popular Company Content.

You have a whole audience that's waiting to hear you secret.

So how do you do it Joyce?

PS-A little birdy just told me that the cover is about to be blown on some secrets here. Shhhhhh! Don't tell anyone!

Lucien Bechard — Wed, 09/29/2010 - 8:27am

Great Idea

That sounds like a great idea. I have been thinking about doing something like that but for 30 days but the idea of 90 is scary.

Melodie Kantner — Wed, 09/29/2010 - 8:37am

Hi Melodie

That's why the masterminding event on Friday. All these brilliant brains together to come up with topics and suggestions on how we can do the 90 days. The other reason it's 90 days is it's just good business sense to diligently do one marketing campaign for 90 days before you do a complete review on the effectiveness of it. Of course, there's going to be tweeking along the way but 90 days will tell you if it's working for you or not.

I usually devote the weekends to my kids and whatever they want to do so I am going to double up on Thursdays and Fridays. Do 2 videos those days and then take a couple of minutes to post them on the weekends.

You're welcome to come on board and yes, it's a commitment but that's what were here for. A Successful marketing campaign ! and it takes work.
Joyce

Joyce Penner — Wed, 09/29/2010 - 8:46am

Video Ideas

Yep. I sat down for a few yesterday and cranked out about 30 for my retail effort. Visited with another distributor this morning to work on other ideas.

I'm going to split it up between retail and attraction marketing/recruiting.

Big project really. Keyword research. Scripts. Video production. Wow. I'll be interested to hear the results of your mastermind session.

Given any thought to leading a conference call?

Magic of a 90 day plan

The 90-day plan is a magic formula in the industry.  I'm sure
there are theories why but the bottom line is that it works. 
90-day plan after 90-day plan.

A 90-day plan:

  • Creates Focus
  • Stimulates Urgency
  • Builds Stamina
  • Fortifies Commitment
  • Set an example for your Downline

Wait...I'm not saying any more...forget I said anything...DIBBS!
 This is one of my video topics!!!!

Tom Bradley — Wed, 09/29/2010 - 3:09pm

Count me In

I had just started a 90 day plan last week but was trying to do too much... videos and articles. So if you'll have me here, I would love to participate!
I am sure that I will be able to stick with a video a day.

Cheryl James — Wed, 09/29/2010 - 4:01pm

I'm In!

Hi Joyce. This is a great challenge. I'm looking forward to it.

Erica Brooks — Wed, 09/29/2010 - 4:45pm

90 Day Video Challenge ...I'm in!

Like I said on the call today...count me in! My brain is ticking! :)

Watch out! Love that you are pulling us all together over this.

Joyce...I FAILED TO ENLIST THE HELP OF AN ACCOUNTABILITY GROUP...BIG MISTAKE...when I challenged myself Jan. 1...and I was working on a 28 day series!

But I truly believe that I will do better with a 90 Day Challenge and a great accountability group than doing a 28 day series without an accountability group.

Wonder Woman IS still alive and well! Will post that video on the Elite Syndication Tribe Wall!

Dotti Berry — Wed, 09/29/2010 - 8:56pm

Hi guys

I'll post a conference line bridge on the forum later today. We can all get on, get the ideas rolling and be ready to go !
Joyce

Joyce Penner — Thu, 09/30/2010 - 7:01am

Absolutely fantastic Joyce!

The commitment... the challenge... the gutsyness... the guide... the peer group... the goal... and even the title of this post... absolutely fantastic!

I perceive a new energy vibrate in you and see you at the top. Best wishes!

Sandeep Nath — Fri, 10/01/2010 - 2:26am

Are you going to join us Sandeep?

The commitment... the challenge... the gutsyness... the guide... the peer group... the goal... and even the title of this post... absolutely fantastic!

Going to use them on the webinar this afternoon.
Thanks !
