Is it really possible to go from your couch to 40K? Yes!  However, here is the catch: you actually need to GET OFF YOUR COUCH in order to do it!  At first it can seem enticing, all of those great television programs, endless hours of relaxation, but sooner or later one must face the facts.  Sitting on your couch for days on end is no way to live and, especially, is no way to make a living!  The funny part about it is that so many of us, me included, have tons and tons of great ideas that come to us while sitting in front of our television.  However, these ideas will never end up making us any money unless we actually do something about them.

That is the most important part in going from your couch to 40K.  With so much time to think, there are plenty of great money-making ideas that come to us every single day.  However, we can often think that we have actually taken some sort of action on these ideas when, in actuality, we have done nothing more than spend more time in front of that darn television!  This false sense of reality can be a real income killer and can prevent us from fulfilling our professional and financial potential.

So, is it possible to go from your couch to 40K without putting forth a bit of effort?  Heck, no!  However, once realizing what kind of holding pattern that that big comfy couch and glowing box has you in, you can finally start joining the ranks of those making a substantial income.  It does not need to mean that you get a traditional 9-5 job and spend all of your free time working.  However, it does mean that you will need to get off that couch and start putting the ball in motion.

I know as well as anyone, sitting on that couch can seem all well and good for those first few weeks, maybe even months.  But, sure enough, those bills start coming in and you start living your life according to what television shows are on when.  It is a slippery slope and, oftentimes, it is hard to realize how far removed we are from the actual land of the living.  So, yes, you will have to give up a bit of TV time to go from your couch to 40K, but eventually you will replace that wasted time with a job that gives you enough money to upgrade that boob-tube into all-out plasma!

Former Electrician Decides to Leverage the Internet, Replaces Full Time Income in Seven Months

Seven months ago Carlos Anastacio decided to walk away from his position as an electrician in order to explore how he might leverage the Internet to replace his annual income. In the midst of a worldwide economic collapse, Anastacio was able to replace his full time income of $40,000 in less than a year by using the training and tools provided by CarbonCopyPRO. Anastacio is now looking to help others do the same thing.

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) February 25, 2010 — Carlos Anastacio is excited to announce that he is looking for entrepreneurial-minded individuals interested in learning how to leverage the Internet to create a lasting income. To learn more about his outline for success, visit his website at http://www.realincomepotential.com/.

Anastacio, who replaced his $40,000 annual income in seven months, has both the experience and the knowledge to help others do the same. Anastacio credits CarbonCopyPRO and its training, tools and resources for much of his success.

In a recent issue of Forbes Magazine, it was estimated that over the next three to five years more than 79 million people in North America will launch their own Internet-based business. Unfortunately, many will fail as they will not have the training, tools and resources necessary to successfully leverage the Internet.

Others will struggle to identify those web-based opportunities, which have a thorough understanding of what it takes to successfully leverage the Internet in light of today’s ever-changing economic climate.

It’s these difficulties that the CarbonCopyPRO system addresses. CarbonCopyPRO offers those entrepreneurs who are looking to leverage the Internet with the education, instruction and support needed to develop a thriving web-based business. CarbonCopyPRO eliminates the expenses typically associated with beginning an Internet-based business by providing its associates with a fully staffed virtual office with the resources and communication tools vital to success.

CarbonCopyPRO co-founder Aaron Parkinson explains, “When times are tough, when times are most dire like they are right now, it’s actually the time when the most opportunities are available for entrepreneurs who want to act on it.”

Carlos Anastacio reveals the truth of Parkinson’s words at http://www.realincomepotential.com/, as he was able to replace his income in seven months during the worldwide financial collapse. Anastacio had been a hardworking electrician for ten years and yet was stuck earning just $40,000 annually.

Frustrated that his value wasn’t being recognized, Anastacio decided to explore ways to leverage the Internet in order to build a lasting income. With the help of CarbonCopyPRO, Anastacio was able to do just that and now he is looking to help others replace their income by leveraging the Internet.

Virtually every adult in our society has been touched by multi-level marketing in one fashion or another.  Many have been successfully become marketers, many have been approached and declined becoming an associate and even more have been offered products for sale through MLM’s.  With that many people touched by a particular type of business, there are bound to be some stories out there about weird and unusual experiences on both the buying and selling sides.

At some point, almost every buyer will run into an odd situation with a seller.  This can take the form of illogical products or ideas.  One example of this might be a scenario where the recruit gives the sponsor X number of dollars, then the recruit is expected to recruit other and collect X number of dollars from each of them.  The original recruit then gives a portion of the money collected to their upline and is permitted to keep a portion, which is the “profit” for the original recruit.  This process is supposed to perpetuate so that each recruit is collecting and shipping money upward.  It seems a bit odd to just give money away and not actually be purchasing any goods, but still expect to make money.  Of course, there are the sellers out there that are different than most folks, too.  Quirky personalities can be exemplified by unusual products.  Defective demonstration products can add some spice to what would be a normal presentation, too.

MLM sellers will inevitably run into eccentric buyers along the way, too.  A seller may encounter a buyer or recruit that has unexplainable idiosyncrasies.  Perhaps the recruit is completely ready to sign on the dotted line and start their business and then suddenly won’t return any of the seller’s calls and effectively disappears from the face of the earth.  Maybe a buyer will only culminate sales on Thursdays at 1:00 PM, not a moment earlier or later.  There are those out there, too, that may be hoarders or reclusive or unusually paranoid that will take the transaction outside the realm of what most would consider normal.

Regardless of which side of the MLM world you are on, it is more than likely you have or will have a story to tell about it.  The key to remember is that MLM transactions involve people of all kinds and no matter how weird the situation is, it may still very well provide the outcome for which you were hoping.

This is not an a weird MLM story ,but it’s well worth taking a look it’s actually an MLM success story.

I’ve spent half a life time looking for the perfect opportunity.  A chance to better myself and shape my future, financially and successfully.  If you’re interested in having success in your own life, then please read my story.
When I was in high school I thought I had the world at my finger tips.  I knew that the harder I worked the further it would take me.  Unfortunately, my future was changed abruptly with one moment in time that I can never take back.  In 1993, at the age of sixteen, I was forced to become another victim of carless driving.  Due to inexperience, I overcorrect and flipped my car after the driver ran me off the road.  My injuries wouldn’t have been as critical if my seat belt hadn’t broken lose and thrown me out the driver’s side window.   A better chance of survival would have been in my favor if it hadn’t been a hit and run.  I was left with a  shattered jaw, a broken hip, chronic head injury and fell into a coma.  When I awoke two months later, I realized that my life would never be the same.  My only thought was “what am I going to do now”?
I will never forget what my doctor told me during rehabilitation, “If you work really hard you can be who ever you want to be”.  So, for the past seventeen years I’ve done nothing but work.  Nonstop.  I’ve worked until it made me sick.  Until it almost killed me.  From working twelve hour shifts in Neruo/Traums to awkward shifts in a Medical Laboratory and years and years of college, my mind and my body were worn and torn.  My doctor gave me two choices, continue working in a hopital until it kills you, or take a break and reconsider your options.   I took his advise and explored my possibilities. How about a baby?
Like usual, things didn’t exactly go the way I had planned.  Instead of having one baby I had three, triplets.  Born at 28 weeks, baby A weighed 2lbs 9oz, baby B weighed 2lbs 13oz and baby C weighed 1lb 14oz.  They were in NICU for three months.  It was a blessing to bring all three of them home together. They’re truly beautiful and now that they’re two years old, they’re truly ornery.  I’ve spent every second with my boys since they were born.  There’s nothing I would rather do, but when they’re busy playing with Daddy or Grammy and Papa, I sit and wonder.  Is there a way for me to remain productive without losing time with my children?  I thought, what if I could work at home?  So, I searched google for a few days but nothing clicked.  I began to lose hope.  I decided to search one more time and there it was, a non hype business model.  The first out of a hundred websites that I could trust.  I was excited and a little skeptic at first but it didn’t take very long to decide that this was a perfect opportunity for me.  The choice I made to join this opportunity has given me a new out look on life.  I’ve found a company that goes out of their way to help you succeed.  My sponsor is always available to answer my questions.  I’ve finally found what so many people have been searching for a long  time. Now I spend time  quality time with my family and enjoy traveling the world.
This could be a new chapter in your life.  A thousand mile journey begins with one step.

You always dreamed of being financially comfortable or even rich, being your own boss, and only working when you wanted.  Suddenly you wake up one day and realize that it’s happened!  You’re there and have everything from your dream.  Wow!  Is it real?  What did you do to get there and, more importantly, can you sustain it?  Yes, you can sustain it, but there is a catch.  You have to keep doing what you did to get there in the first place.  This means you have to keep working.  It doesn’t become a free ride, just because you reached your goals.  Keeping them will be equally if not more challenging.

Think hard about all the things you’ve done with your MLM business to this point.  Consider the network you’ve built.  Look at how you’ve built it and maintained it because inevitably you have probably lost members and subsequently replaced them with new members.  Understand how you built the tier in your immediate downline and how you motivated them to perpetuate the structure.

Congratulations!  You’ve worked hard to attain the status you now have.  You don’t want to throw it away or lose it, so you have to keep working.  By now, you’ve been at it for awhile and it’s very probably second nature.  You get up every day and perform your tasks.  You make your calls, follow your leads, send emails, and work with the folks in your downline to help them with whatever circumstance they may be struggling.  It’s all become an intricate part of your being and the likelihood of you just stopping isn’t strong.  After all, what would you do with all your time, right?  That’s good, because the success will dwindle quickly if you stop.

After you have a complete grasp of all this, keep doing all of it.  Don’t assume you can stop just because you made it to where you wanted to be.  Now you have to do it to keep what you’ve earned.  You cannot expect your downline to support you entirely.  In order to maintain their respect, motivation and support, you have to continue to be you and do your job.  This will encourage and charge them to strive even harder to reach the same success you have attained.   You know this business like the back of your hand.  That’s why you have reached guru status.  Keep raising the bar.  It will do you and your downline a lot of good.

Here’s how several newbies are getting Guru status by using this unique sales funnel.Some went from not sponsoring a soul in their life to sponsoring over 10 reps in a single month.Here’s their secret Guru System…

In order to be successful in network marketing, it is important to be aware of MLM pimps and how to spot one in your local coffee house.  Depending on the person, these pimps can either help you make a lot of money or can be just downright annoying.  By now, most people are aware that MLM is dependent upon a strong downline.  However, the jury is still out as to whether building the largest downline possible always translates to strong income potential.  While many try to recruit as many clients as possible in order to make up their downline, doing so sometimes results in a group of people that drain time and resources instead of making you money.

However, although a quality group is obviously important, without a large enough client-base, it will be very difficult to make money.  Because of this, there has become a recent onslaught of MLM pimps.  These pimps tend to troll places such as coffee houses as they often get a fair amount of foot traffic and have a captive audience from which they can easily recruit.

Often found mulling around the same coffee house day after day, these MLM pimps could represent your success or your demise depending on their training, opportunity, and motives.  While there are some that have a valid and reputable business opportunity that could end up being well worth your while, the fair majority will end up taking your money and then leaving you roped into an opportunity that keeps you in a holding pattern without any promise of any real financial gain.  Therefore, it is important to be wary and learn how to spot these opportunists who might be hanging around your local java joint and looking to prey on the unsuspecting folks coming in looking for their daily caffeine fix.

However, should you find one of the often talked about but rarely seen MLM pimps that actually deliver, you will definitely want to take advantage of what they have to offer.  The trick is spotting the money-makers from the money-drainers.  Although it might seem difficult at first, a good tipoff is the way they go about recruiting you.  Those with a more laid back, yet still enthusiastic style tend to have a higher likelihood of being legit.  However, those trying to talk to every Tom, Dick, and Harry with gusto should probably raise a red flag.  So, if you happen to encounter one these opportunistic MLM pimps, it is best to get your coffee and run!

Well, you’ve taken the plunge.  You’ve decided to start your own home based business through a multi-level marketing company.  What now?  Where do you start and how do you get going?  The deer in headlights feeling is pretty uncomfortable so you want to get going quickly so you don’t have to feel it anymore.

Start by doing an inventory of the tools the company you’ve signed on with offers.  They may provide you with a website.  If so, it likely has some kind of back office feature that will allow you to track leads from the website, view your status with the company in terms of sales, points earned, and so forth.  It may even provide you with tools for following up with leads and generating email campaigns.  They may have provided you with brochures or packets and perhaps even business cards.  Most likely that offer a series of training videos or conference calls to help get you started and keep you on track.

After you understand what you already have, make a detailed list of what you need.  If you don’t have the handout materials, like brochures and business cards, you will want them.  You can design a simple one page flyer and business cards and have them printed relatively inexpensively.  Make a list of all the places or people you could contact to sell your product or present the company for recruiting.  List all the places where you could place your handouts for people to read or pick up.  Be creative and think outside of the box.  If a website and back office system are provided, make sure you know how to maximize the use of all the tools offered.

Now that you have all the tools, it’s time to hit the ground running.  Start talking to people everywhere.  Don’t be afraid to pin a small stack of business cards on the bulletin board at the grocery store or leave them on a table at your dentist’s office.  Figure out creative ways to introduce your products to your friends and family.  Make sure they understand what you’re doing, so they can spread the word.  Take advantage of one of today’s most effective tools, social media.  Log into your computer and set up accounts on networks that work, like Twitter, Facebook and My Space, but learn to use them properly.  That means being genuine and authentic.  In other words, be a person and don’t just sell when you’re using these networks, interact and converse with people just like you are face to face.

Not too long ago I was an MLM Newbie-Wet Behind The Ears, but then I was introduced to a Network Marketing Legend that has helped me every step of the way in becoming a Master Marketer .Who new this industry would be so much fun.

Addiction is partially defined as the condition of one being compulsively or habitually occupied by or involved in something.  Is it possible to become addicted to MLM businesses?  Absolutely!  We’ve all heard about one of them, read about one of them or know one of them, the MLM junkie.  This is someone that is crazed about every new gimmick that they come across.  They are convinced that the next one is the best thing since sliced bread and will make them an instant millionaire.  They sign up for every multi-level marketing company find, especially if they think they are getting into it on the ground floor.  When it’s all said and done, they are probably associates in dozens of companies, have spent thousands of dollars getting into these companies and have actually lost money rather than making it.

These are the folks that give multi-level marketing a bad name.  They inundate their friends and family with requests to buy products or sign up as recruits.  They perpetuate the unjustified stereotype of MLM companies as all being get rich quick schemes.  What can be done about them?  Can they be helped and in turn help you by not having to tell them no all of the time?  The answer is only if they want to be helped, just like with any intervention.

If you are in MLM, how do you prevent them from ruining your business?  This is more within your control.  You must promote your business responsibly and consistently.  Being responsible with promotion involves being persistent without being overbearing.  If people see that you are committed to one particular business they will be less likely to assume you and your business are just like the MLM junkie and his businesses.  You can also make sure that you have solid facts and figures to support your claims regarding your business.  This will assure people that your business isn’t one of the fly by night operations just gearing to take people’s money.

The probability of MLM junkies disappearing is slim to none, but their impact on you can be controlled.  On a personal level, you can choose to deny their requests, ignore them or avoid them.  More importantly, on a professional level, you can make sure you and your company are represented on a professional and respectable level.  This should minimize or completely negate the less than desirable impact these junkies could otherwise have on your livelihood.

Not an MLM Junkie anymore,here’s what changed my destiny Master Marketers United.

What are some things you could do with business cards to grow your business?  Well, there are a lot of possibilities.  You know those big bulletin boards in grocery stores, sandwich shop, and cafes, put cards on them and not just one, stick a few up there.  Ask your hair salon if you can leave a few on the magazine table.  Check with medical professionals, accountants and any other business you visit regularly if you can leave a few cards for other clients to see and pick up if they are interested.  Drop one of your cards in every fish bowl drawing you see.  After all, you never know who might be going through those cards later for the drawing.  You’ve seen the big boards in businesses with stacks of cards from various businesses. Get your cards onto one.  These are generally owned and stocked by a company, so find out how to contact that company and sign a contract with them.  It is usually a fairly inexpensive way to get someone to do some of the leg work for you.

Once you’ve saturated the obvious market with cards, create a way to distribute them to the less obvious and less accessible market.  Create or buy a mailing list within a specific geographic area and send a letter introducing yourself and your product or service and include a business card in every letter.  Contact local charities and establish giveaways that benefit those charities.  Make sure your cards are attached to every piece of correspondence or gift that goes out in relationship to the drive on which you are working with the charity.

Business cards are sometimes a neglected tool, but they can be one of your best business assets.  People hold onto business cards and you never know when they are going to decide they need your product or service and go looking for your card, so make sure you are getting them out.

Beyond the hopeful lure of instant money, there are often hidden caveats as well.  Many times these companies will require reaching a certain level before they will cut a check to you.  They may require that you have a certain number of recruits and reach a particular dollar amount in sales amongst you and your downline before they pay you.  Generally, the money will be credited to you, but held until the specific milestone is reached.  If it is a company that requires a buy in, but spreads payment of the buy in across your first sales and recruits, then your first pay day may be delayed until you’ve paid the buy in.  If products are advanced to you without purchase, your initial earnings may become a reimbursement to the company for the product advancements.  Some companies pay on a specified time table as well.  In these situations, they may provide payment only on a certain date each month or after a stated period of time, like quarterly.

Any of these scenarios may impact your payday.  Regardless of what part of the fine print impacts when you will be paid, you have to understand that significant effort on your part will be required to fulfill the dream of becoming rich with through multi-level marketing.  It is certainly attainable, but requires tenacity and patience.  You will have to be out there every day promoting yourself, your product and your company to make the paydays what you envision.  It’s not easy, nor is it quick, but it is possible.  We’ve all heard the old cliché, “you reap what you sow”.  This notion is truer with MLM businesses than almost anywhere else because your paycheck is completely dependent upon your individual effort.
