    Being a fierce multitasker, I have always been able to juggle my work, fun, hobbies and personal affairs with enough authority to have some time left at the end of the day to relax and review what I had accomplished. However, lately I am finding it extremely difficult to find enough  time in the day to get my primary tasks completed.  This has never happened before, and to be quite honest, it’s unlikely to be letting up anytime soon!

    As many of you know, I am heavily involved with My Wireless Rep, and this entails many many hours spent on the phone with my team leaders doing 3-way calls, team calls and private group calls. This set of tasks is consuming the bulk of my  working free time, so much so that I am having difficulty finding extra time to update my blog, as well as the several new projects I am heading up. Did someone say spread too thin?

    So just to clarify and let you all know, here are the tasks I am involved in. Each is in varying degrees, but one thing is crystal clear: These projects leave me very little if any free time whatsoever:

    1. My Wireless Rep- Get paid on wireless thru an exclusive contract with Verizon
    2. boopi.com - Fun product reviews and shopping portal
    3. Family & Friends - Discover Card is going MLM in 60 days, and I am the Master Distributor
    4. Maintenance of My Web Properties - 185 web properties to manage and keep current

    Please check back regularly, as I will be giving more details on my ongoing projects.  Many things are in the works that I am looking forward to sharing with you.

  • Do you like to save money on the things you need and use everyday?

    That may sound like a common sense questions that you would never have to ask, but many times we can’t “See the forest thru the trees” as it were. If you’re marketing goods and services from your home that people don’t need and use everyday, you’re selling luxuries. What I mean by that is, when people begin to tighten up their budgets, these expenses are usually among the first to go.  When gas is $4 per gallon, and bread is $5 a loaf, your previous customers will cancel their autoships and order only occasionally instead of regularly. The reason? These products are luxuries, and not necessities, and you and your customers do not need them to survive.

    Now think about your wireless device. If you had to tighten your budget, how many of you would consider giving up your wireless phone? With 264 million people using wireless devices in America today, we are living in a wireless world, and people simply will not give up their wireless devices!  Would you?  Unlike luxury products that you do not need and use everyday, wireless devices are necessities we use to help run our lives.  We depend on wireless devices to make our lives easier, and therefore would never go without them.

    What if you could get involved with something so incredible, that quite possibly will never happen again? That’s a question a lot of us never think about, simply because a lot of us are never in the right place at the right time when it comes to hearing about the next big opportunity.  But what if you could build an organization, and get paid on all the wireless bills in that organization, month after month? Think about it! Even if you are building another business, you use your wireless device everyday, regardless of your business goals. The phone is the one thing we all use everyday - even to build other work from home businesses!

    How big will this opportunity be? Think about this for a moment:

    • There are 300 million Americans
    • 264 Million have a wireless device

    In other words, we all know what a wireless device is. It’s the one item we need and use everyday, in all of our day-to-day activities. From managing work and personal affairs, the wireless device is the most important business tool we all carry.  I’ll be posting more about the My Wireless Rep opportunity in this blog as the weeks and months go by. Please visit My Wireless Rep for complete details.

  • Another summer has come and gone, and fall is right around the corner! If you live in the North East, that means the cold weather will be here soon.  It’s crazy how fast the weather turns from scorching hot to bitter cold in this area of the country. I do enjoy the 4 seasons, but I wish the warm weather would last a bit longer.

    It was great seeing my good friend Jules and his family on their annual trip up to the cabin on Lake Erie. Huge bonfires, drinking, visiting and re-living old times is always something I look forward to. I will admit that the hangovers don’t feel so great, but it’s only for a short period of time once per year. In a strange way, I look forward to that too, especially when it’s all over for another year, and I find myself smack dab in the middle of another cold winter.

    One of the neat things that happened this time around was I got my good friend Jules to pick up a new wireless phone through my new company, Lightyear Wireless. Jules was on a family plan with a friend of his that had since moved away, and was in need of a new phone and plan. When I signed him up throughout Lightyear, he got a great phone and a very good plan, and was out-of-pocket less than $100! The reason I mention this is because I have never involved my friends in any of the businesses. I like to keep the two separate, in the event I have to explain to my close friends why a particular product or service did not turn out as expected. This is the first time I have actually involved a friend in my business dealings.

    Next year Jules is coming up for 12 days instead of 7 - Only 11 months and counting!!

    I have been tearing my hair out over the past few weeks (ouch!) trying to determine how and where to host my Blog.  I am a big fan of WordPress so it makes sense that I am  using the software.  This theme is called “Notebook” and I like the layout very much.

    I was using the free blog offered at WordPress.com, but learned after a few months that the free blog option is not where you want to host a blog that’s related to any type of online marketing and sales.  If you are interested in building income, and discussing it with others (via your blog), then I suggest you download and install the WordPress.org software. It’s quite simple and gives full control with no restrictions.

    Hello world! Thanks for coming by to see what I’m up to.  I’ll post here regularly.
