Home Based Franchise Opportunity
Bookmark this blog post, read through everything first, and then come back to click on the links. This post is really not long at all. I just want you to get as much as you can out of these steps. You can develop these steps into a complete business plan if you would like and improve them wherever you see fit. I'll even show you how to get low cost funding for this project at the end of this post.
Step 1:
Find out about about the advantages of our discount travel and luxury resort membership at YourHomeBasedTravelBusiness.com. Get on our next conference call to find how we operate, and afterwards give me a call with any additional questions. Once you decide to join the business, you can get a website just like this with your own domain. Choose a domain that is easy to remember and catchy. For example, I also own the domain DiscountLuxuryResorts.biz to let people know exactly what my website is for.
When you join the business you will also receive a corporate website, which looks like this: BetterThanTimeshares.net. I use this site for product specific advertising. Again, choose a domain that is catchy and easy to remember.
Step 2:
Become familiar with the stock footage (or available videos) at SpotRunner.com. These folks have excellent television quality footage related to travel, which you can use for the business opportunity, product sales, or both. You should also become familiar with the time slots available in your area, and the channels that you would like to target. The obvious favorite is the Travel Channel.
Once you join the business and narrow down your video search, send the video and your proposed narrative to GRN support for their OK. They are very fast in responding, because they want you to sell a gazillion memberships.
Step 3:
Get a high quality voice mail system. Your television spot is going to tell potential customers to visit your website or to pick up the phone and call you. And guess what? That's what they'll do! For that reason it is always best to direct customers to your website vs. your phone number. Why? Because you want them to know as much as possible before they call you. Additionally, your phone number is going to be on your website, so folks that really want to speak with you will pick up the phone and call.
When potential customers call in, you want your outgoing voice mail message to briefly explain the payment options, and to offer them more information by visiting your website. At the beginning and end of the message, make sure that you state that they can leave a detailed voice mail message for you, and that you will call them back. For example, my opening line is "Before you leave a message, here is a little information that may be useful for you".
You can listen to my full outgoing message (it's really pretty simple) by calling the number at either of my websites.
To kick it up a notch, go to Google and do a search on 'virtual receptionist' and buy one. This technology rocks!
If you have a call center or professional sales team, then of course, this kind of voice mail setup may not be necessary.
Step 4:
Follow up with your prospects, and ask them for the sale. Not everyone will buy on their very first exposure to our travel membership, so here's a little help. If you are using a website like mine at DiscountLuxuryResorts.biz, the system will automatically send professionally written and formatted email responses to people that request more information from your site. This is a very powerful and time saving feature. Right now this site only features the business opportunity, but will soon have a very similar presentation that is product specific.
Step 5:
Fund your business from your existing assets or use Prosper.com. I really like this group. They are the ebay of personal lending. Click on person to person lending to read my blog post regarding their community.
Conclusion
Our timeshare alternative really is gaining a lot of traction in the travel industry. Timeshare sales professionals that join the business always say the same thing: "It seems to good to be true." But they soon find out that it really is true.
The best way to get the most out of this business is to book a vacation for yourself. Why? Because once you stay at a luxury resort for only $298 per week, you're bound to tell people about it. You know how travelers love talking about booking vacations and the expenses involved, and you will have the best story ever. Why not get started today?

How to Become a Sales Superstar
Thursday, October 18, 2007
Considering an Online Business?
On a positive note, current times are not so dismal when it comes to employment. In this day and age we all relish options galore. No one is forced to work for a large corporation or "the man" if they prefer not to.
In reality you can start you very own business online if you have the motivation. All you really need to get started is a computer, Internet access and an idea.
Many individuals are making the switch from big companies to private online business opportunities. With cyberspace at your constant beck and call 24/7, it's realistic to assume you can make a decent income from the privacy of your own home.
The fact of the matter is people do it every day. However, it's up to you to decide if an independent business online is the right solution for you. Let me fill you in on a few perks that are commonly enjoyed.
First of all, those who start their own business, whether online or in their home town, generally make more of a profit. This is due to the fact that they're now at the top of the chain. Money is not passed down to them by a higher authority. They make what their business allows them to. Once taxes are extracted, they're left with a higher percentage.
A second bonus of having your own business online is setting your own hours and work load. You soon realize how much you need to work and what deadlines you must meet. This is a wonderful advantage once you get the hang of things.
If you're considering a personal business online, then don't allow anything to stand in your way. You can make an at-home business work if you put fourth the proper time and effort.
It's crucial to remember that once your individual business online is booming, you can never be fired. You are the boss and you decide what's what. That factor alone will keep you motivated and steer you clear of working for "the man" ever again. Find success with your own business, such as a home based travel business. Let the Internet contribute to your dreams and aspirations.

This is the same website linked from your GRN corporate site. Corporate tells me that this site is updated in real time, but it will never have the full GRN inventory. Even the membership site doesn't list the full inventory, and that's a very good problem to have. We have substantially more available properties and weeks than the advertised 5,000, but corporate has decided to take the modest approach.
You should also make use of our demo membership site. Give this domain and login to as many prospects as possible:

SEO Advice Update
For a while my number one spot went to number.... well.. I really don't know where it went in Yahoo's search results, because I couldn't find it!
This is really the result of something I already knew: Craigslist and ebay ads are temporary, so any resulting search engine optimization will be temporary.
There are two solutions:
- Keep renewing your ebay and Craigslist ads
- Establish permanent links with high ranking websites.

Another SEO Update
Really Quick Internet Marketing SEO Training
So you're ready to start selling on the internet, and you're wondering where to start. There is more than enough information on internet marketing online and off line, so I decided to make this a very short read. No fluff, just information. Reading this short article may be the most significant investment you've made for your online business.
What is SEO?
SEO stands for search engine optimization. You want the search engines, like Google and Yahoo! to list your website, so you have to make your website friendly, or optimize it, for the search engines.
Get Linked
If you click around Google for instructions on getting your website listed in their search engine, you will find that Google wants you to have links from other websites to yours. That's the way they like to find out about websites. All of the search engines work the same way. Even brand new websites that have links from very influential and established websites will get listed in the search engines very fast.
"Who Will Give Me a Link?"
So you have a great new website and you're wondering how to get links from other influential and established websites. That's pretty easy. Craigslist.org and ebay.com are among the worlds most influential and established websites. A link from ebay is cheap, and a link from Craigslist is usually free. Before you do either, you should create a press release at PRWeb.com. These are also free or cheap, and produce a lot of fire power when it comes to links.
"How Can I do That?"
If you don't know how to write an ebay or Craigslist ad, it's very easy to learn at either website. PRWeb.com will also show you how to write a simple yet highly effective press release. Assuming you do know how to place ads, here is what I did to get a top listing on Yahoo!
- I purchased a domain based on a popular search term, "home based travel business". Just use http://inventory.overture.com/ to figure out what terms people are searching for on Yahoo! The domain I chose was YourHomeBasedTravelBusiness.com. I then used this domain for my Global Resorts Network website.
- Then I wrote a press release and published it with PRWeb.com. For a little extra, PRWeb will let you create links in your press release. If you are good at writing simple and pointed paragraphs, this shouldn't take more than an hour. However, don't worry if it takes you a whole afternoon. If that's what it takes to get your creative juices going, then that's fine. Publish the press release as soon as it's finished.
- Next, I bought a classified ad on ebay. You really only need to spend $9.95 per month for a classified ad, but I purchased a few marketing options from ebay to give my ad a little more exposure to ebay customers. As far as the search engines go, I really doubt that the $9.95 or enhanced marketing options on ebay make a difference. All the search engines care about are links from established websites. Click the link to see my ebay ad. As you can see from the ebay ad, the words "home based travel business" are linked to the website I'm promoting.
NOTE: Here is the winning formula: the words linking to your domain should be related if not exactly the same as your domain.
- The next day, my ebay ad appeared on the first page of search results on Google for the term "home based travel business." This was very, very good. I then copied the ad and placed it on Craigslist under the Small Business section. However, this was not a good idea, because now my ebay ad moved to page 2 of the Google search results. My Craigslist ad also appeared on the second page of search results.
Lesson learned: DO NOT use the same ad on ebay and Craigslist. Mix them up a little, just keep the link to your search term and domain intact.
A Little Refinement
Once I changed the Craigslist ad, my ebay ad moved back to the first page for my Google search term after about five days. By the way, the Craigslist ad shows up on page 2 for my Google search term. This is really good news!
Are We There Yet?
Yes, we are there yet, because for a while, my website, YourHomeBasedTravelBusiness.com, appeared on page 1 at the top of the list for the search term 'home based travel business'. Yes! Type it in at Yahoo.com right now to see where it ranks. MSN has put me in the same number one position. Hopefully it hasn't slipped. On the flip side, I think I'm somewhere on page 18 for the same search term on Google, so I'll need to work on getting more links.
Summary
- Get a domain name related to your business and a popular search term.
- Build or purchase a website related to the same search term and use it with your domain name
- Write a press release and publish it immediately with links to your new domain.
- Write separate ads for ebay and Craigslist, with your search term linked to your domain.
- Build links until you get a top ranking for your domain.

New GRN Affiliate Site
This website is designed and managed by Priceless Possibilities, an online business one stop shop for a number of opportunities. I've used them before with my Profit Masters site for the Emerald Passport opportunity, and their service is pretty good.
Their website designs are very eye catching, and as advanced as you'd like to be when it comes to online marketing. Based on my past experience with Priceless Possibilities, and the quality of the new GRN affiliate site, I can honestly recommend them as a good resource.

Get Customers to Sell For You - by Brian Tracy
Fully 84 percent of sales in America take place as the result of word-of-mouth advertising. Some of the most important sales promotion sales activities are those that take place between customers and prospects, between friends and colleagues, in the form of advice and recommendations on what to buy, or not buy, and who to buy from.
Join the Top 10%
The only way that you can be among the top ten percent of salespeople in your industry is by having your existing customers selling for you on every occasion. Because of the importance of mega-credibility in selling, your customers must be happy to open doors to new customers for you wherever they go.
Never Prospect Again
All top salespeople eventually reach the point where they seldom have to prospect because their customers do much of their selling for them. When you live your life consistent with your personal and business mission statements, both fitting together like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle, your sales career will soar, as will your sales results and your earnings.
Be Clear About Who You Are
One important point with regard to vision, values and mission statements: be gentle with yourself. It has taken you your whole life to become the person you are today. If you are like everyone else, you are not perfect. You have lots of room to grow and improve. There are many changes that you can make in your character and personality in the course of becoming the excellent human being that you aspire to. But change in your personality will not come easily, and it won't come overnight. You must be patient.
Persist Until Your Succeed
The reason that people grow and become better and better over the course of time, is because they persist gently in the direction of their goals and dreams. They don't expect overnight transformations. When they don't see results immediately, they don't get discouraged. They just keep on keeping on. And you must do the same.
Put Your Ideas Into Action
Once you have a clear idea of the person you want to be and the kind of life and career you want to create, just take the first step. Read your mission statements every day as you go about your activities, think of the different ways that you could practice the virtues and qualities that you are in the process of incorporating into your own personality.
Remember, it is only your actions with regard to other people that really demonstrate the kind of person you have become. And if you persist long enough, you will eventually shape yourself into the exact person that you have imagined.
Action Exercises
First, treat every customer as if he is going to be a great source of word-of-mouth advertising for you. Remember that every person knows about 300 other people.
Second, resolve to become better and better in your dealings with others but be gentle with yourself. Behave every day in every way the best you can be and you will be sure to get results.

GRN Take Off To Success Call - 11:00 a.m. EST Daily
Take Off To Success Call
Monday-Friday 11:00am Eastern
- Personal development topics
- Interviewing a top leader on every call
- Recognizing success in people – bring out people within GRN that are achieving results to tell their story of how and what is working for them in the business…
- Tips and quote of the day
- Company business (should there be any news) I call this “Housekeeping”
- Business management ideas, techniques, and motivation that may consist of:
- Prospecting
- The 3-way
- Staying productive
- DMO – Daily Method of Operation – basic planning your day events
- Lead generation and flow
- Leadership
-
- After introductions and basic call to order, it’s the host’s job to greet the members and welcome all the guests to the call. The call is for the guests, what we call the fence kicking call, where by the members will have time to jump out and tell their story…i.e how GRN has impacted the lives of family and friends, and while the money is great…it’s the ability to stay home with my kids and watch them grow, rather then trading time for money and be stuck in traffic and at a job I hate…thanks Al and Chuck and all the GRN leaders for such a great opportunity…
- We do this for 25 minutes, and then the host closes the call asking that the guests get back to the person that brought them to the call, get any final questions answered, and then it’s time to make a decision in or out! All this said in a nice a professional manner that will leave a lasting impression on the guests, and as you can imagine our overall objective is to encourage growth and leadership.

Don't Buy a Time Share! There Is a Better Way
WARNING: Viewing this information may cause nausea, mild depression and anxiety for current time share owners.
If you are like most time share owners, you've already discovered that your "great deal," according to an enthusiastic time share sales representative, wasn't so great after all. Maintenance fees, condo fees, mortgage payments and horrible resale values have made time share ownership more of a headache than anything else for far too many people.
It's no wonder that terms like "time share resale" and "sell time share" are the most frequently searched terms related to time shares on Yahoo.com. Just enter "timeshare" at inventory.overture.com and see for yourself.
These negatives do not change the fact that spending a vacation at a luxury resort is a wonderful upgrade to most hotel stays. I would choose a luxury resort over a hotel any time.
Well here’s the good news. The big players and developers in the time share industry have wised up, and are now spending more energy on lifetime discount travel packages. “What’s that?” you may ask.
A lifetime discount travel package is a membership in a high quality travel club. Membership normally includes luxury resorts, discount cruises, airline tickets and more. These travel packages are in fact timeshare alternatives, because users have the option of staying at a wider variety of resorts without ever worrying about blackout weeks, maintenance fees, property taxes, mortgage payments or timeshare exchange fees.
If you own a timeshare, you are responsible for these fees each and every year, including the years that you don’t travel. Does that seem fair?
A membership with the Global Resorts Network will allow you to book a luxury resort condo, hotel or townhouse online for as little as $298 per week. These are the same luxury resorts you would find on Expedia, Travelocity and Priceline at $1,400 per week on up.
Don’t let the low weekly rates fool you. These are luxury resorts with no time share presentation requirements attached. For recent examples, visit http://grntour.us/, login: resort, password: movie
It just makes good sense. Don’t buy a time share. Just buy a lifetime discount travel package and travel during as many weeks of the year as you’d like, without the hassles of blackout dates or those never ending timeshare costs.
When you do the math, the difference in ownership costs between a lifetime discount travel package and a time share purchase is staggering. So don’t buy a time share! There is a better way.

Timeshare Relief
This is great! So funny, so true.
Don't buy a timeshare. There really is a better way.
Friday, March 16, 2007
Global Resorts Network - Better Than Timeshares
I went to a Fairview Wyndham Resorts presentation in Alexandria, VA on Monday, and their travel package is very impressive. Their high pressure sales techniques are rather amusing and predictable, and if I were 20 years younger, I would have purchased their timeshare deal just to get them off my back.
It really was the old 'consumer vs. high pressure sales folks' battlefield in there. The Alexandria, VA Fairfield sales office is very classy. They give you coffee, soda, lots of donuts - they have the high powered pop music playing over the sound system, and so I, as a consumer, am set up for defeat. These guys are mega sales professionals.
However, I learned a LOT about the timeshare business first hand. This was very valuable information. I went through four managers, on account of my four refusals to purchase, and the final offer was, of course, their best. I think it was down to $14,000 or so with 684,000 points. But even with their best deal at $14K, I would still be responsible for:
1. 10% down
2. Mortgage of $247/mo, for about five years
3. Condo Fee of $35/mo.
4. Maintenance Fee of $80/mo.
That's $1,400 cash up front, and then $362/mo for five years or so. After the mortgage is paid off, I'm still responsible for upwards of $115/mo. for the rest of my ownership. So that's $4,344 in my first year of ownership, even if I don't take a vacation that year.
And there's one more detail: A $90 fee to book a week out of the Fairfield network via RCI.
With GRN, my first year of ownership would cost $3,700 at the most. That's $3,000 for a lifetime membership, and $298 to $699 for a one week stay at Star Island in Orlando. The photos at the website really don't do the place justice. This is one fabulous resort that they push at Fairfield, because everyone loves it.
GRN has it, too, for only $298 to $699 per week!
So here's a little breakdown of GRN vs. my Fairfield Wyndham Resorts offer:
Two year cash cost of Fairfield Wyndham Resorts: $10,008 (even if I don't take a vacation)
Two year cash cost of GRN: $4,393 (assuming I take a one week vacation at $699 each year)
Third year cash cost of Fairfield: $4,344 (with no vacation that year)
Third year cash cost of GRN: $699 (with one vacation that year, or $0 with no vacation)
These scenarios are based on my taking the $699 GRN membership vacation, but it is far more likely that I will be taking the $298 vacations. That's what most of the GRN members seem to like. They are very, very cool. Even if our $298 deal is for a one bedroom unit, customer service will upgrade us if they can to a two bedroom at the same price. We routinely have very nice two and three bedroom condos and townhomes at $298 per week. Take a look for yourself at http://grntour.us, login: resort, password: movie. Be sure to click on the HotWeek Movie when you log in.
My recommendation: If you are serious about your GRN business, go to a timeshare presentation. Your eyes will be opened. Besides, you might be able to recruit some of those high pressure sales folks for your GRN team. GRN requires no pressure at all. Just common sense.
Send me an email and I will give you my Fairfield contact. He's in the Philippines, and he will make $100 just for your attending, so I'd like to help him out of I can. Fairfield really loads you up on free gifts, too.
GRN really is better than timeshares.

How to Become a Network Marketing / MLM Heavy Hitter
These words are so true. If you're ready to start a career in network marketing or multi level marketing, you should feel passionate about your business in order to "make it in a big-time way." But with that passion, you need the nuts and bolts of what to do.
There is more than enough information online on what you should do, so I've distilled what I've learned into the seven basic areas you see here. Don't let the small size of this article fool you; you are about to embark on something very big; MLM heavy hitter status.
1. Choose the right product. If you wouldn’t sell the product to your mother or brother, then drop it. You need to feel truly enthusiastic about your product or service. The product you represent should be very desirable online and offline, and with or without an attached business opportunity.
2. Become a people person. No matter what your personality is, you can always improve on your people skills. This doesn’t mean you have to smile at every waking minute; you just need to focus a little on what makes other people tick. That’s it. You’re an instant people person.
3. Advertise smart. Attract people. Don't chase them. Learn all you can about search engine optimization, article syndication, and online videos and infomercials.
Online videos consistently outsell even the best articles and sales letters by a margin of three to one. On top of that, your video will score a very high ranking in Google if you write your video comments correctly.
You don’t have to create fantastic video productions; a simple slide show with a little music and your voice would be a very effective starting point. Remember, You are the Person of the Year according to Time Magazine.
Newspaper classified ads are still very good. Just remember, the first thing the reader wants to know is "What's in it for me?" Write your ads accordingly, and keep your presentation simple when respondents call you. Always use a nice image and the same thinking when you write an ad for Craigslist.com.
4. Recruit professional sales people. Use your new powers of search engine optimization and classified ads for good, and recruit high quality sales people and entrepreneurs for your opportunity. Just think about it; they love selling. It’s in their blood.
If you can present a valuable product with a powerful pay plan, they will line up at your door. The product you represent should be very desirable online and offline, and with or without an attached business opportunity. (Yes, I repeated myself.)
Let your sales professionals and entrepreneurs put your product in the hands of happy end users, and the multi level marketing aspects of your opportunity will take over from there. Vonage, Mary Kay and Avon are perfect examples of this; Their satisfied customers become the best sales people.
5. Choose a high tier opportunity. By high tier I mean an opportunity requiring a $2,000 or $3,000 startup cost. These programs also pay out large and fast commissions. Many high tier opportunities allow you to earn your way in if you’re on a tight budget.
The smaller priced opportunities are good, but you need to recruit dozens of people to make your first $1,000, and the $100 autoship costs add up pretty fast. The high tier programs will pay you $1,000 with only one or two customers.
The larger commissions of higher tier programs will also attract all the right sales professionals and entrepreneurs, and you absolutely must have them on your team to become a network marketing heavy hitter.
6. Make your success easy to duplicate. Teach your down line to do and say what you do and say, and keep what you do and say very simple. If you keep it simple, the longevity of your organization is virtually guaranteed. Conversely, if everyone begins to improvise, your team will become distracted, and your downline will begin to dwindle.
Everyone in your sales organization will do much better with a duplicatable system. McDonald’s has been teaching us this for years.
7. Sell your product to end users. For example, if you tell the folks sitting next to you on the beach that you only spent $300 for a whole week in one of the town’s most luxurious resorts, their wet hair will stand straight up. That’s how we as humans work. We’re excited when we hear about a good deal, and we always want to know more.
So that's it. You can become a network marketing or MLM heavy hitter in a relatively short time with this advice. I hope you will use this advice to change your financial life in the very near future.

New Global Resorts Network Testimonial Line
We have a new product testimonial line. This will be very useful in selling the product. That's where the real money will be made. Why? Because a satisfied customers will gladly tell others about their great deal, which means more sales for you. That's why it's very important to have your own domain; a domain that the customer can remember. I have a bunch!

Global Resorts Network Startup Instructions, Part II
Here is round 2 of my startup instructions. The first instruction set was geared toward offline classified ads, and it has worked very well for me with online classifieds as well, specifically with the Sales Jobs listings on Craigslist.com. So here we go for round 2.
- If you haven't already done so, click the Join link at http://TheBestSalesJobEver.com, and sign up as a GRN Affiliate. You will get a replicated website just like mine right away.
- Purchase a domain from http://GoDaddy.com. They're only $9 or so for the year, and a personal domain looks much better on business cards or classified ads. Read their instructions or call their customer support for information on forwarding your affiliate link to your new domain.
- If you're on the fence regarding purchasing the GRN Platinum package vs. signing up as a free affiliate, go ahead and buy your GRN membership. If you don't, you will lose the residuals from your first sale forever. Conversely, if you purchase your GRN Platinum membership you will not lose residuals on any sale after your first sale. Believe me, it's a miserable feeling when you consider the math.
- Start advertising your website today. If you're on a budget, use the free or paid http://Craigslist.com ads.
- If you want to sell our memberships and recruit affiliates like crazy, follow the instructions in my previous blog posts regarding online videos and online infomercials.
- If you have purchased your Platinum package, you will shortly receive an email message from David Jumper and/or Ken Wells. These guys have earned over $115K in the first month of Global Resorts Network, and they're available for three way calls if you would like to use them. They will supply you with a list of high quality leads, as they've been in the lead generation business for nine years or so. Their website is LeadsAtLast.com

Internet Infomercials Insider
Music Television--MTV--debuted for the American public.
This brief introduction was immediately followed by the music video clip "Video Killed the Radio Star," featuring a band called the Buggles.
The title proved somewhat prophetic as MTV greatly transformed the nature of the music industry stardom over the next several years.
Those artists who embraced the new technology flourished even if their music was LOUSY.
Record sales exploded.
Why?
One simple word.
Exposure.
Even though the early MTV videos were incredibly amateurish (long hair, Spandex & smoke machines!) the technology had reached a point where combining music with a VISUAL (video) was an affordable means of promoting the music. Video became the premiere PROMOTIONAL vehicle for music, and MTV, the ultimate destination for pop culture.
Fast forward 25 years and we contend we're at a similar crossroads regarding video and Internet marketing.
The technology has reached a point where it is affordable AND practical for the common man or woman to promote their business, products and services online with video.
We believe it is the most powerful promotional force EVER placed in the grasp of small business owners and entrepreneurs.
Why should YOU be using Internet video to get YOUR message out into the world?
One simple word.
Exposure.
During April, Google Video added more than 12.5 million registered users. (Source: The Washington Post).
YouTube currently serves more than 50 million videos per day to 6 million users. (Source: YouTube Fact Sheet).
And more than 170 video portals have come online in just the past few months. (Source: Business 2.0 Magazine)
The Internet, version 2.0 is here and the majority of businesses don't even know it yet. It is called Internet TV--video infomercials.
But you know it. You're one of the few who get it. And if you want to know how to leverage the new Internet and change your business life forever, watch the video gift we sent you when you subscribed.
We call it "Internet Infomercials 101--An Introduction to Creating Online Commercials That Sell Your Product, Service, Book, Seminar, Subscriptions, Memberships or YOU Online More Effectively Than Any Sales Letter, Audio Message or Other Technique You've Ever Seen!"
First, sign up at our website for a free report on internet infomercials:

Never Quit: A Lesson from The Apprentice
I was shocked after a recent task on The Apprentice, when a candidate resigned instead of taking her chances in the boardroom. After having a tough time as project manager - and knowing her teammates certainly didn’t like her - Michelle threw in the towel and quit.
I was amazed that she would throw away such an opportunity. She had a chance at catapulting into the business spotlight, a chance at a high-profile job in a high-powered corporation. Yet, she chose to throw it all away.
It’s a business lesson I teach over and over again: “Never, ever give up. Never quit. You can never be successful if you give up.”
In this case, Michelle had plenty of excuses. She said her Apprentice experience wasn’t what she had signed up for. She didn’t expect to be on a losing team, living in tents in the rain. She said the negative adventure just wasn’t worth it to her.
Had she gone to the boardroom, she probably would’ve been fired. But I would have had much more respect for her had she taken her chances and fought for her job than just give up. But she didn’t even try. She conceded defeat without a struggle, without a whimper.
It takes strong people to succeed in business. And if you quit, you don’t stand a chance.

GRN Fast Start Instructions
I've put together these simple steps to get your Global Resorts Network business off to a fast start. Here's the good news: You will not have to become a sales genius to be widly successful in this business, but your success is virtually guaranteed if you recruit professional sales people who already love the art of selling.
Find just a few quality people in your area to market and sell the product, and the networking will take care of itself. Remember, the product has been selling very well over the last 20 years at $10,000 per membership. You're trying to find new affiliates to sell it at $3,000 per membership. This should be pretty easy for the professionals in your area.
So here we go.
1. Familiarize yourself with the product. You know it's true; facts tell and stories sell. You need a great story regarding a huge discount at a luxury resort. Even if you haven't had time to take a trip yourself, you can point to a few really nice places exclusively available to GRN members at $298 per week.
Take a look at our team's product movie at http://grntour.us, login: resort, password: movie. Feel free to share this video with your prospects as well.
It also helps to just read everything on our websites, and to get on at least three conference calls per week. I have a GRNSystem.com site (http://YourVacationBusiness.com) as well as the original GRN affiliate site (http://TravelAdventure.tv). Both websites have the full conference call schedule, as well as links and/or phone numbers to recorded testimonials. These are extremely useful!
One of my favorite features of the GRN System site is their daily webinars. Click the Conference Call link at http://YourVacationBusiness.com to sign up for the next webinar. These webinars are product specific; they do not include information on the business opportunity, and I love it that way!
The GRN comparison emails that we get each week are great for doing this as well. The GRN emails will itemize the prices for a specified luxury resort at Hotels.com, Travelocity, Priceline and a few others, always at four figures per week, compared to our member's price of only $298 for the same week. These are genuinely excellent deals!
2. Place a classfied ad in the Jobs section of a large circulation newspaper. The ad should go something like this:
--------------------------------------------------
Sales and Marketing Leadership
Do you enjoy travel? If you can
develop travel related leads, follow
up and close, we will pay you well.
If you can teach a small force of
five or six sales professionals the
same, we will pay you substantially
more. 100% commission opportunity,
unlimited income, weekly paychecks,
with residuals you would have to
see to believe! Get the details at
www.TheBestSalesJobEver.com, and
then give me a call. 703-555-1212.
------------------------------------------------
3. Interview sales professionals. The sales professionals that call you will more than likely be very excited about the opportunity. However, they want to feel good about the company and about you. Here's what you can say after your initial 'Hellos':
GRN Affiliate: Well, the Global Resorts Network has sold lifetime discount luxury resort memberships over the last 20 years for $10,000 each. We've just introduced an affiliate program, and have dropped the price to $3,000, so we know this will be really big.
[You've just repeated what they hopefully already know. This is all you need to say initially. ]
GRN Affiliate: Question 1. So how long have you been in sales?
Sales Professional: "Oh I've been in sales for...."
[Your job at this point is to listen actively. That means little words like "I understand", "So you mean...", or "That took a lot of courage". It's good manners, and it just shows that you care about what the sales professional is saying. Listen actively after each of the remaining questions.]
GRN Affiliate:
Question 2. How have you developed leads in the past? [Listen]
Question 3. How would you develop travel related leads? [Listen carefully, and when it's your turn to speak, tell them your great travel deal story. This will give them confidence in their own ability to promote our membership.]
Question 4. Have you ever trained other sales people? [Listen]
After this question, be sure to tell them "Our online presentation and conference calls will actually do most of the training for you. For that matter, our online presentation can do most of the retail selling for you. When you become an affiliate, you actually get two websites; one with, and one without the business opportunity information."]
Question 5. If you were to start with GRN today, how long do you think it would take you to earn your first $20,000? [Listen]
Question 6. Have you seen our pay plan? [If No, refer them to www.payplan.us, but keep them on the phone]
Question 7. As you may know, purchasing a GRN membership is not required for you to become an affiliate. [This is an important legal statement, especially if you're advertising in the widely circulated newspapers].
However, if you are serious about this opportunity, purchasing your own membership makes the commission structure much more favorable for you for the short term and long term.
[The conversation will go substantially smoother if you leave an explanation of the pay plan out of it. Just refer them to the movie again. A picture is worth a thousand, or a million, words.]
Question 8. How would you like to join the Global Resorts Network?
Their answer: Free Affiliate, Paid Affiliate, or Not Now. If they want to join, just refer them back to your website. If they've already signed up as a free affiliate and are now ready to upgrade, tell them to log into their back office and complete the purchase details online. If they're at a computer, walk them through the process of signing up on your website while you're on the phone with them.
If the answer is Not Now, give them the number for our live or recorded calls, reminding them that the live Q&A sessions are on Mondays and Wednesdays. You may also invite them to browse our online inventory. Be sure to get their email address and phone number for following up later. After giving them the phone numbers, you should say:
GRN Affiliate: Take a few minutes to watch our pay plan at www.payplan.us, and be sure to get on tonight's conference call. Is it alright if I call you back after tonight's conference call? [If it's Friday or the weekend, give them the recorded number, and ask if you can call them after they've listened to it.]
Here are the phone numbers.
503-445-8567 (24 hour recorded call).
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday 10:00 PM EST (7:00 PST)
620-782-8200 PIN: 334050#
FOLLOW UP INSTRUCTIONS
Call them back as soon as possible, ideally the same day. After your initial 'Hellos', here's what you can say.
GRN Affiliate: Well, you've seen our system. If you can point folks to your movie, and get your sales trainees on our conference calls, you're in business. Would you like to join today?
Sales Professional: Yes!
GRN Affiliate: Great! Are you at a computer now? [If yes, you should say...] Go back to my website and I'll walk you through everything right now.
If the sales professional says 'No', then tell them:
GRN Affiliate: I understand how you feel. Why not do this: Go back to my website, sign up as a free affiliate, and tell two or three of your colleagues or potential customers about GRN. I would be more than glad to pay you a $100 referral fee for pointing them in my direction, and it won't cost you a dime. Would that be OK?
Sales Professional: Sure!
GRN Affiliate: Ok. Here's how to do it. Go back to my website at GlobalResortsNetwork.com/goodtimes/biz. [Give them your corporate link or domain that points directly to your /biz link. Walk them through the website while you have them on the phone if possible]
When you get there, click the Join Now link and choose Option 1 to join as a free affiliate. Choose a user name that's easy for folks to remember, enter your info., and you're done. When you find a customer that wants to buy, just refer them to GlobalResortsNetwork.com, and give them your user ID. When they click Join Now at the corporate site, and then enter your user ID, you will be credited with the sale indirectly, I will be notified of the sale, and then I will then send you a $100 referral fee. How's that?
Sales Professional: Sounds great. I'll do that.
END OF INTERVIEW
So that's it. Sounds simple, doesn't it? It really, really is. Bookmark my blog and refer back to these instructions as often as you'd like. Be sure to email the link for this blog entry to each and every one of your GRN affiliates.
If you have a script for Mary Kay and Avon folks that may want to give themselves a raise, please let me know. GRN would work perfectly in the home business party world. Send me your script, and if I use it, I'll post it here with your link. All feedback is welcome.
If you'd like to join my team, just visit my GRN corporate website at TravelAdventure.tv and sign up today. We are at the start of something really big!
