About Me...
My work day often starts around 9:00AM and just kind-ah fades away when my wonderful wife of more than 30 years now, appears at my desk, a big smile, and her purse in hand. “Ah-ha expedition time”! I dearly love these excursions to the unknown, except when I’m the wallet and pack mule, if you get my drift.
We live near Seattle, Tacoma in the Puget Sound area so the destinations are endless, the mountains, ocean, lakes, or ferries too a multitudes of islands. And if we like the destination we could stay a day or two, for you see, my business is in my pocket (cell phone) and the internet is everywhere these days, hotels, coffee shops even McDonalds.

Being out in public is the best way to meet that next business partner. So have you run out of prospects, no more people to talk to or sell too? Take my advice, get out and about and expand your horizons! It works, and don't weary about what to say, just ask people what they want or need and supply it to them. When your relaxed it all just comes out naturally.

Remember: "the only reason for a business the exist is to make someone's life better"

Sorry about my little soap box excursion, back to the subject.

Our grown kids are perplexed with trying to keep track of dear old mom and dad, although we do ck in from time to time (not nearly enough they say). We both dearly love our little excursions, one rainy Feb we ended up in Texas, the SUN was extra hard to find that year.


But---- it wasn’t always like this.

This is our story
For most of my life I worked in the corporate world (NCR, Boeing, Frederick & Nelson, ARCO, Bank of America).

At Bank of America I was on call 7/24 where I had helped install & maintain their INTERNET infrastructure and ECOMMERCE systems (routers, switches). I longed for more time with my family and the debts seemed to grow faster than my income ever did. Then I was introduced to ongoing income as in "Do the work once, continue to get paid" which is an effective way to create residual income. Soon I was able to get away from the corporate world.

I am now with a company that sets people like us up with A franchise like business, that you run from your home on a part time bases that can pay off your bills now and in 2 to 3 years replace your current income.

I have found the UnFranchise Management System is an intelligent and efficient way to create wealth without prohibitive startup or overhead, that it would take to start a normal franchise. Like a franchise, you are fully trained in all aspects of your business, you are equipped with a detailed plan of action, provided a Custom Web Portal with credit card processing, and all the necessary tools, reports and services to manage your business.

Well that’s what I do now, set people up with a true home based business, that is.

Feels great too!

What a glorious company to partner with!
Interests....

Tell us (without hyping) about your Home Based Business
I have weathered two recessions so far with this company, and intend to weather this one as well, and with a steady residual income.

As a Product Brokerage company we bring the hottest new, and highest quality products to the customers, and what's hot right now is anything to do with health, anti-aging, and quality of life products for the "baby boomers".

As a product brokerage & Internet marketing company, the company does not manufacture its products, so recessions are not as costly as with companies that do their own manufacturing.

I have been in the Network Marketing/Home Based Business world since January, 1991. I mentor others on how to build a successful Network Marketing business without -

Easy come easy go, get rich quick schemes
Using Hype or Income Claims
Bugging Their Friends
Dragging People to Meetings

The internet is one of my primary tools I use to get "people coming to me," who are interested in learning what home based business is right for them.

Steady dependable Residual income looked for here!

If that interests you, visit my site above for some details.

Dealing with the elephant in the room: namely the current economic crisis

These days new ones may find that not having enough money is brought up the most. And ironically, it may be the easiest objection to deal with.

Here’s the important thing with this....

You must deal early on with the elephant in the room: namely the current economic crisis. This needs to be mentioned at the start of every presentation these days. And perhaps be a part of any invitation you do.

Here’s why....

What culture should Drive Your Business

What culture should Drive Your Business?

First is the Culture of Care and Keeping of Customers...

Next is the Culture of Care and Keeping of your Business Partners!

The first question of any business is to understand WHAT business you are in.

Every business is first, last, and always in the business of providing superior service to its customers and "Making Someone's life better".

It costs a lot to attract a new customer. The time, money, energy, anxiety and effort to get a new first-time c… Continue

What is most important_Product or Pay Plan

As history has shown us countless times, even a poorly designed, or just weak paying, pay plan can still generate substantial incomes. And conversely, pay plans with potentially superior pay outs routinely fail.

Think of every compensation plan as a big machine. In one end flows product volume, and out the other comes your commissions and bonuses. After all, isn't that what a compensation plan is supposed to do: convert sales volume into commissions?

Looking at this issue from the most macro v… Continue
