NFL Player, Eric Boles, The GAME Plan For Business

Posted by Deb Bixler

What Do Football And A Direct Sales Business Have In Common?

That is exactly what I was wondering when I first started talking with Eric Boles about being on The CashFlowShow – Direct Sales Radio! It did not take long to learn that football and a successful direct sales business have a good bit in common.

Direct Sales Success Depends On Goals!

Eric Boles Business Goals The success of any game depends on goals and planning. Every successful business (and football game) has a plan in place. The goal of every business and the goal of every team is to win… win no matter what! Everyone wants to come out on top!!

Our guest next Wednesday @ 8:00 PM EST (January 11, 2012), Eric Boles will share with us his inspiring insights and strategies on creating success in business!

What if there was a better approach? The pursuit of excellence is bigger and better than winning. The GAME Plan is giving your very best in pursuit of a goal or endeavor that is bigger and demands your best!

Business Motivation, Eric Boles’ The GAME Plan

As a player with the New York Jets and the Green Bay Packers, Eric learned many principles about team dynamics, leadership and goal setting.  On the The CashFlowShow – Direct Sales Radio Eric will be sharing his top business motivational presentation: The GAME Plan!

This is the 2nd in a series of 3  Direct Sales Radio shows focusing on goals and getting off to a great start in 2012. In this motivational radio show, Eric will share how you can motivate your team to excellence.

Eric’s workshops have been presented to successful corporate companies such as Starbucks Coffee, First West Credit Union, National Association of Realtors and Alaska Airlines. This will be exciting!!

(I don’t know anything about football… but don’t tell him, OK?!)

Jim Beach, Author Of School For Startups

Our next CashFlowShow – Direct Sales Radio show guest (Wednesday, December 21, 2011) is Jim Beach author of the School For Startups.Jim Beach

Entrepreneurs are not the big risk takers according to Jim.

Especially direct sales entrepreneurs who have the best of both worlds. Support of the home office, a proven product line and the ability to control their lives make direct selling a low risk business.

Entrepreneurship offers a safer path with more control. Jim’s book is about success and the process of becoming a successful entrepreneur.

Join us on the CashFlowShow – Direct Sales Radio as we interview him this coming Wednesday.

Direct Sales & Low-Risk Entrepreneurship

I believe entrepreneurship is not about creativity or risk.

You are crazy, most people will say!

They think that entrepreneurship is entirely about creative people doing risky things.

Direct Selling Business

Let’s see if by using the direct selling business model we can decide what entrepreneurship is.

Let’s Start A New Direct Sales Business

Lets pretend we decided to start a direct sales business of our own… Restaurants are the least social media aware businesses in America. Most good restaurants have websites, but very few collect email address, fewer blog, and even fewer restaurants tweet.

A zero risk, zero creativity business idea that I tell people, especially young people, to start is a restaurant social media consulting firm.

Go into a restaurant and ask for the manager (it works best between 2 and 5, when business is slow). Say to the manager: “For $200 a month I will be your social media manager. I will start the process of building a fan base online and communicating with them via Facebook and Twitter, and even text messages to phones.

On a slow Tuesday night, you call me or text me, and I will send out a tweet announcing half-price wine for the next hour, and I will help drive revenue for you.”

I think if someone tries that at 10 restaurants, they will sell 2 or 3. And then it would be a business! Not creative. But innovative, not a social media company, but a restaurant social media company. No risk, as no money is needed upfront to start this business. The only thing invested is the time in marketing directly to your potential customers.

The restaurant is your customer and in this pretend business we marketed to them, the customer, directly. That is what direct selling is.

The Entrepreneur School For Startups

entrepreneurial School for startupsIn School for Startups, we teach that the best way to succeed as an entrepreneur is to reduce risk.
The direct sales business model is a perfect example. Your corporate support company has taken all the financial risk and then provided you with a proven brand.

The best way to reduce risk is to know what your customer wants before you invest money. In home party plan direct sales businesses, the company that you sign on with has already done the research and created a product line that has desire in the marketplace.

I started a business in 1994, a summer computer camp for kids (the business grew to $12 million in yearly revenue by 2000). Before I incorporated, I ran ads in the local papers to see if there was interest. Before I printed a brochure for those interested, I made sure there were a lot of people interested. Risk was reduced by my first activity, which was going directly to the customer.

As a direct sales consultant you have the best of both worlds: the fun, excitement and passionate ability to create your own life working from home and the support and guidance of a major established corporation.

So what is entrepreneurship then? It is solving problems (like slow nights at a restaurant). People pay to have their problems go away.

As a direct seller each consultant can stand out by becoming unique in solving problems for their guests. How to know their problems? Ask them. Directly.

Entrepreneurial Spirit

5 “P”s of Personal & Business Success In Direct Sales

Posted by Heather Calma

Welcome To Healther Calma!

Direct sales success story Heather Calma has joined the CashFlowShow team of experts. We look forward to more posts from Heather.

Principles of Personal Growth For Home Business Success

direct sales success principlesBenjamin Franklin once wrote, “Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.”

This statement could not be more true.

Did you know most millionaires accomplish more by 8 a.m. than the average person accomplishes in an entire day? Think about your average day. Do you feel as if your family is demanding your attention, your business is going in ten different directions, and you cannot remember what free time really is?

Direct Sales Consultants Working From Home

As a work from home direct sales consultant I quickly come to the realization in the beginning of my career that time management was essential to productivity and harmony. As a naturally self-disciplined individual and homeschooling mother, I did not find it difficult to adhere to a set schedule however once I began to build a large team I realized that not everyone has the same amount of discipline.

5 Principles Of Business & Personal Growth

Through coaching and mentoring of others I developed a philosophy called the 5 “P”s or the “5 Principles of Growth”. Consistently growing on a personal level is required for business growth.

  • Productivity—You accomplish productive tasks, not just “keep busy.”
  • Professionalism—You always speak and present yourself in a professional manner.
  • Present —You are fully present in every moment and never multi-tasking.
  • Positivity—You cannot have positive productivity and growth while being negative.
  • Purpose—Your every act has a purposeful intent.

A very easy way to make sure you are managing your time effectively is to take the activity you are engaging in and see where it fits within the Philosophy of the Five “P”s of Personal Growth and Development. If you find that you cannot give yourself a good answer, assess the situation and where you are in your business. If you are not content with where you are in your business, perhaps it’s time to engage in a new activity that will add value to yourself, your business or others.

Home Business Success

Home business success depends upon our ability to stay motivated and focused.

Working from home can create a lot of distractions. The physical environment can be very comfortable yet can also be very hectic at times. We have the luxury of not having to punch a time clock or have a supervisor watching over us – we are our own supervisors and must hold our selves accountable at all times.

Direct Sales Consultant’s 6th “P”

As a home based direct sales entrepreneur, the old adage: Work Hard, Play Later must always be in effect. Once you adhere to the Five “P”s of

Personal Growth and Development throughout your working hours, you can then reward yourself later with the Sixth “P” – Play! Enjoy yourself; you have earned it!
