About Me

Hey! I'm Lavina Chaves
 

"Discover How An *At-Risk* Banking Industry Employee/ 3 Year Network Marketing Failure - Finally Cracked The Code To Making Serious Money Online With Any Business, Product, Or Service…within 3-6 Months!”

Read on, and you'll discover my secrets :-)

 

Ok, so if you got to this page, and you're anything like me, you've learned that building a Network Marketing or MLM business online is not easy! That's why I'm so passionate about showing others how to regain control of their own financial future and businesses - like I did when I went from being an "At-Risk Bank Employee/Network Marketing Reject" to becoming a leading Internet Marketing Business Coach in the Network Marketing Industry, all while working from my little laptop computer and a full-time bank job!

Please understand that I'm not here to "sign you up" in any program, nor take your money and run like you know what! ;-).

I only desire to give HOPE & INSPIRATION to those talented “employed” or “not-so employed” entrepreneurs who realize that just “giving up” & “walking away” is NOT the way to go. But, who may be discouraged and broken in their attempts to finally reach THEIR DREAM because they are not getting the proven training and optimal results they need to be successful. But before I get in to all that, let me first tell you a little bit about myself...

 

I'm a spiritual women, a wife, a mother of 2, and an entrepreneur all packaged up into one bit sized 5 foot 5 person. Most people would describe my personality as pretty down to earth and relaxed, with a witty smart-aleck type humor. I have a very honest upfront perspective on life, and a fanatical determination for growth and success in everything I do!

On a more personal note, I was raised as an only child in a single-parent military home. I was born in Nuremburg, Germany and moved to the States when I was about 3 years old. I have lived in several places along the east cost, but I call North Carolina my home.

My husband and I have been together 7 years, and have given life to a handsome son and beautiful little girl! Married at a very young age, our marriage was doubted and speculated, yet we have accomplished more and over come more than most people have in several decades of their life!

My husband, Wayne, is from Costa Rica, where there motto is “Pura Vida”-Pure Life, and that is what he has shown me- how to relax and flow with the daily stresses in life. About a year after our second child was born, we both landed good Bank jobs as Business Analysts with a "good company"- Bank of America (nuf said!) Like many we had little in savings, living pay check to pay check with two small mouths to feed, and a daycare tuition that was enough to cover a $300,000 House mortgage! Things are tough and as we all know there seems to be no end in sight.

Reality Check

 

Many people would kill to have a so-called “Good Corporate Job” especially right now in this economy, even at the sacrifice of a meaningful quality of life, possibly giving in to 40-60 hour work weeks, all in the name of financial security or just plain survival!

You see, I was raised like many others- to grow up, get a good education, then get a good job with a good company, work really hard until I’m 65, and retire for the good life! Uh, hello, why do I have to work 40-50 years to enjoy the “Good Life”, I want the good life now. Yes, I said it, I want my cake and eat it too. And I don’t want to just me and my family to “Survive”, I want us to LIVE!

The Decision

That’s why in 2005 I made the decision to start a business. Along side working a tiresome job, we had also gotten involved in the MLM/Network Marketing industry and because there is so much hype out there, we were suckered into this fantasy world of easy “Get Rich Quick”. But it was not easy and it for dang sure wasn’t quick!

My transition from "Network Marketing reject to Successful Entrepreneur" has not been without some stones, setbacks & challenges, though. I knew I NEVER wanted to depend on a corporate job forever- and put my family’s well being at the dispense of a volatile economy and wavering banking industry. I was determined to be successful with my business, and create a recession proof Six Figure plus lifestyle without a boss, corporate rules, or politics, and have the time and freedom to enjoy the life that I have been blessed to experience.

I Ain’t Going Back

Along with MLM & Network marketing businesses, I tried everything else too: chain letters, envelope stuffing, surveys, forms, auto-surf programs, you name it. I tried to build my MLM business all the old-traditional ways, with banners and flyers, drop cards, post cards, and those dead beat Geneology List. I then turned to the Internet- where I went thru the worst learning curve- trying to build a website, generate leads with PPC, understand SEO, article marketing, and all the rest of the “Guru‘s“ Groundbreaking lead generation tactics.

 

But only after 1000’s of dollars spent, did I finally start to see some results with my business. Only problem was that it was so hard to maintain, and so hard for others to duplicate my success.

Lessons Learned

 

Now, the most VALUABLE lesson I learned from my stressful yet enlightening experience is the importance of marketing.

I can not stress enough how IMPORTANT it is to know that, no matter WHAT your business’ product or services are...YOUR GOAL must be to become a Powerful Master Marketer.

Now let me share some heartfelt honesty with you --- this is going to take some time, tons of dedication and yes- money! If you are trying to make a quick buck the easiest way possible, you might as well click the little X in the top right hand corner of your screen & keep your day job, because you are in for a rude awakening otherwise.

I have personally spent thousands of dollars on marketing training, I have studied hundreds of articles & books and watched countless hours of video becoming who I knew I needed to be in order to accomplish my goal of being a Master Internet Marketer, a Powerful Business Coach & Successful Entrepreneur!
 

I STILL continue to advance my knowledge in internet marketing... Because one thing is for certain, the only thing constant about the internet, is that it’s Constantly Changing! So, don’t stop learning, or you'll be dust in the wind!

Some ask was it worth it? ABSOLUTELY! I have built a set of skills that are better than a college education or corporate job, skills that give me the confidence that, no matter what happens to the economy, I'll still be able to provide for my family, because there are always going to be people who are buying, and I can continue to market to them!

So, if you're reading this, and you’re thinking YOU too want some PEACE OF MIND, and to develop marketing skills that will make your family Recession Proof, feel free to watch some of the videos here, AND visit my blog-This is where I regularly post some of the best kept Secret Marketing Tips -- tips that have helped me become a TOP Internet Marketing Leader.

 

 

 

MLM'ers & NETWORK MARKETERS

Yes, I honestly believe that it can, but ONLY if you have the right mindset, determination AND are willing to BECOME a Leader in your industry!

So if you want to discover *How to Get Free Leads & Traffic Chasing You*, and learn the power of Attraction Marketing and Building You Inc. (which is the secret behind Successful MLMer’s & Network Marketers) , utilizing Web 2.0 marketing strategies, than I highly recommend you check out the Link Below…

Who I'd like to meet:

I am looking to connect with “Professional Minded” people who understand the importance of having control of their time and income, and how it’s the only way for them to attain the lifestyle they deserve. The world of Internet Marketing is NOT for "Entitlement Mentality" type folks who expect to get all the best things in life without first doing a little work!

Making money online is about more than your ability to execute a marketing plan, but it’s majority about mindset. I want to connect with those individuals who are students of life looking to grow not only financially, but in all aspects mentally, physically, and spiritually .

I don’t have a poverty conscious mind and I believe anything I put my mind to can be accomplished with patience and persistence. So, if you're the kind of person who just thinks about things, yet never actually DOES anything, and then proceed to whine because things never seem to work out for you…then I have no desire to meet you!

However, If you share my same beliefs and ideas then I encourage you to reach out to me, as I would love to meet you.

Ciao,

Laviña

WOW1 That's all I can say. Boy you laid it right out there. A most excellent thing. Our group is always looking to connect with like minded people, like you, especially those with Corporate backgrounds we have a Century or 2 combined in our leaders group. We understand fully the trials, and fears associated with the Corporate life style. Yet we appreciate the experience we gained from it, anhd also apply many of the successful corp. Business models to our various MLM vehicles. The numbers do not lie when lookihng at the # of billion dollars companies around the globe and the number of millionaires created therin, well the MLM industry is a drop in that financial bucket. And the reasons why! you learned in your early attempts in the MLM business. Our group does not allow that to happen to our people. B/C this is a people biz, first, a marketing biz second, which you have discovered with CCP, and it is a product, Services biz way third. You have heard of Viral products + marketing. Like AOL went viral, the marketing tool was a movie called "You've Got Mail!". That being said, we identify Viral products and apply Viral marketing to them. You have worked with businesses, as do we. MLM does not have to follow the "you get 5 and they get 2 they get none." LOL! biz model. To go viral you need both b2b and b2c, with products that litteraly sell themselves. Because the are neccesities. Not Luxuries. In this economy people will stop taking their $100 per month Vitamins, or high end skin care products, long before they cancel their cell phone, or online service. We hope to connect with you soon, so we as a group can partner with you to accelerate your current endeavors, and to show you the trends occuring now and within the next few years to keep your pedal to the metal. Our very best to you and your family. Tom Savas, Gain Consulting Group,LLC.
