According to Wikipedia…

Deferred gratification or delayed gratification is the ability to wait in order to obtain something that one wants.

Conventional wisdom considered good impulse control to be a personality trait important for life success.

The marshmallow experiment is a well known test of this concept conducted by Walter Mischel at Stanford University. In the 1960s, a group of four-year-olds were given a marshmallow and promised another, only if they could wait 20 minutes before eating the first one. Some children could wait and others could not.

The researchers then followed the progress of each child into adolescence and demonstrated that those with the ability to wait were better adjusted and more dependable (determined via surveys of their parents and teachers), and scored significantly higher on the Scholastic Aptitude Test years later. Notably, Mischel later found that easily explained tactics allowed children who had waited very short periods to wait for quite long periods.

Okay, okay, I know what you are thinking… there is definitely a relationship between delayed gratification and success in network marketing – for that matter – in any business.

Short term are you prepared to make sacrifices? Are you prepared to delay gratification in order to make your networking business successful?

That choice is of course yours!

Here’s to YOUR success!

As you build your EcoMates Ethos business you will notice that your support team consciously, or unconsciously, covers 5 points while presenting on your behalf. Online presentations, webinars, websites, conference calls, three ways, PowerPoint Presentations and the EcoMates opportunity brochure (see below) are built on the same simple, yet very effective 5 points.

1. Market trends x 4 – fuel prices, market size, environment, economy
2. Product – proven, endorsed, necessary, unique, consumable, green, economical
3. Company – management team, production capabilities, prepared for growth
4. Leverage – exponential growth, networking basics = ongoing income
5. Timing – early innovator advantage = pre-momentum

Presentations also include a “How to quickly break-even” section.

NOTE: The best tool to learn about “leverage”…

http://www.yourfutureisgreen.com/internetworking

These presentations follow the same format each Tuesday, Thursday and SUNDAY evening so that you know exactly what to expect when you invite a guest to join you on the line.  You know they will get the information they need to make an informed business decision.

These presentations also teach you how to present.

Once you master the points you will be able to present the business in 5 minutes, or spend 5 minutes per point.  When you get to the point where you can use your fingers, or quickly scribble out the 5 points on a napkin and do a presentation on the fly on behalf of your distributors – you will be unstoppable!

Until then be sure to use the tools and your upline executive!

Grab a guest, create a 5-point check list and follow along during the next live conference call/webinar – TONIGHT – listen and learn while you build and earn!

Every decent company or upline executive support team has a short business overview video available for you!

But how exactly to use it to produce the best result?

If you simply send a link to your contacts – have they ACTUALLY watched it?

So how to make sure that they know what your opportunity is about, how to make sure that they are making an informed business decision?

Simple:

My business partner Anson MacLauchlan is the king of keeping it simple and using the tools to present a network marketing opportunity!

Anson: Carol, do you have 7-minutes?

Carol: Yes, why?

Anson: Carol are you in front of your computer?

Carol: Anson, yes why?

Anson: Great Carol, I’m going to shoot you a video – right now – that will take 7-minutes to go through. What email address are you using these days?

http://www.yourfutureisgreen.com/video

Carol: __________

Anson: Great, I’m shooting you a link to a website right now. Can you open up your email and click on it?

Carol: Okay, I’m going there right now.

Anson: Great, please let me know when you get it.

Carol: Okay, I have it.

Anson: Great. Carol, click on the link and please tell me what you see.

Carol: Okay, a video, I see it.

Anson: Perfect, are your speakers on?

Carol: I think so, let me check. Okay, they are on.

Anson: Okay Carol, click on the arrow and let’s “watch” this video together.

NOTE: Now Anson stays on the phone and he makes sure that he can hear the video through the phone. IF he can’t hear it through the phone he asks Carol to stop the video, adjust the sound and start it again. Anson stays on the phone for 5 to 7 minutes. If Carol gets distracted, he knows, he can ask her to pause the video, pull it back and start it again.

The short video will pique for interest. Carol will either be interested – or not, or have a few questions – or not. The video is simple, duplicable, non-threatening. Any one can do this!

_______

When Carol needs to know more — Brilliant Compensation is a next great step and of course Anson knows how to get his upline executive on the call (okay, okay as the master distributors we don’t have upline BUT we know how to get a second voice on the phone.  Anson and I use each other, or someone who is part of our downline as a second voice.) Anson knows how to use the principals below to “book a time” for a three-way or get Carol on a webinar. He knows how to put documentation in regards to the product, the business, the principals and the compensation in front of Carol.  In other words how to walk her through the website.

_________

NOTE: So what happens if Carol is NOT in front of her computer when Anson calls?

Good question!

If not the conversation goes like this.

Anson: Carol do you have 7 minutes?

Carol: Yes Anson, why?

Anson: Are you in front of your computer?

Carol: Anson, sorry no, why?

[NOTE: How Anson “comments”, and then regains control of the conversation by asking Carol the next question. “Great”, or “okay” = comment and then right into another question = Anson in control of the conversation.]

Anson: [Comment] Okay Carol, no problem. [Question] When will you have computer access? What time will you be home again?

Carol: I get finished work at 5:00 tonight – so after 5:00.

Anson: Great, [Comment] [Followed by a question] what time do you get home?

Carol: About 6:30, I have to stop for groceries first.

Anson: Okay, [Comment] [Followed by a question] what’s on the agenda after you get home?

Carol: Dinner for the children, homework, bedtime – you know all the usual “stuff”.

Anson: Okay, Carol when does your “me” time start?

Carol: Good question – I suppose that by 9:00 I would have a few minutes.

Anson: Great, I will call you right at 9:00 tonight. What’s the best number to call you at, at that time?

[NOTE: He doesn’t ask for a “home” number. He asks for the “best” number to call. Non-threatening and often you will get a home number this way, even if this is a casual acquaintance and you have never had the home number.]

Carol: 1 604 771 5838

Anson: Great, you’ll be in front of your computer at 9:00 this evening and I’ll call you so we can go through something that will take 7 minutes. Okay?

Carol: Okay.

Anson: Good, have a great day and I’ll speak with you then!

Anson and I have been involved full time with network marketing for 18 years and the biggest challenge that we, and every other networker faces is the fact that most people do not understand the mathematical equation, the exponential growth factor of network marketing. Hands down our favorite educational tool is Brilliant Compensation by Tim Sales. This generic network marketing tool is worth its weight in gold – no – make that platinum. When we are in the process of recruiting or enrolling a new distributor Brilliant Compensation is the top of our list and a “must see” for those investigating or joining us in this industry.

Take 15 minutes, watch Brilliant Compensation – we’re sure that you’ll agree.

We love it so much that Anson and I pay for a monthly subscription to Tim’s online “flash” version for our whole group, for the whole company, for YOU, to use — and we have it linked to both our recruiting and training sites. Brilliant Compensation is an absolutely fabulous 15-minute presentation. Click here to get a website that includes Brilliant Compensation with “fields” that you can personalize and make your own.

February 13, 2010.  It’s almost half way through February, have you decided on what you want to accomplish this year?

When you are recruiting, do you mumble the fact that EcoMates is a network marketing company and then hope that your prospective distributor does not run away?

Teachers often do well in this industry because one of the keys to success in network marketing is having a solid understanding of how exponential growth works, and in turn being able to explain that concept to prospective distributors so that they can make an informed business decision.   With a little education and practice you can learn to welcome objections and to embrace the fact that this is network marketing!

As conversations evolve through recruiting, and three way calls with, prospective distributors I often ask a favorite question…

“If you had to — how would you explain how the money is made in a network marketing company?” Then I shut up and listen. There are people who have been in multiple network marketing companies who can’t answer that question, who don’t really “get it”.

Many people understand the opportunity to buy products at wholesale and sell at retail. They might mumble something about “word of mouth” but after that they are kind of fuzzy as to the details about how the really BIG bucks are made in the industry.

As you become proficient at explaining how exponential growth works you will see the expressions on people’s faces change, you will see a light bulb go off and you will hear people on the phone say “Oh, now I get it!”

Are you ready to learn more?

Watch Brilliant Compensation http://yourfutureisgreen.com/internetworking

This email contains details on:

2 oz containers of Ethos FR + now available!

NEW products added to your EcoMates sites.

International expansion

How to invite

SUNDAY NIGHT WEBINAR.

___

SO much going on right now – where to start?

Have you noticed that it is even easier than ever to create Personal Volume (PV) and Group Volume (GV)?

In addition to 16 and 32 ounce bottles of Ethos FR Plus you can now purchase extremely convenient 2 ounce containers of Ethos FR Plus. [USA distributors have 2 oz containers available right now!] [Canadian distributors will have 2 oz containers available shortly!]

You will also notice that a few top selling Youngevity products have been added to your EcoMates back office and shopping carts.

When ordered through your EcoMates sites the volume from these select, top selling products count towards your EcoMates business.

Watch for the addition of products that are unique to EcoMates. NEW EcoMates environmentally friendly and EcoMates branded products will be added in the weeks and months to come.

In the meantime let us help you build a network so that as each new product is added it’s not just you using the additional products, it’s you and a team!

One of the most frequently asked questions right now: How does the addition of the top selling Youngevity products effect our business strategy?

Your leadership team will be leading with EcoMates Ethos FR Oil Treatment and Ethos FR Plus. The presentations will change very little.

Inviting strategies will not change.

http://yourfutureisgreen.biz/1st-48-hours/invite/

We will be encouraging you to “pick your passion and lead with your passion”. For your leadership team the “passion” is “Ethos” so we will be leading with and building our businesses with Ethos.

We suggest that you keep it simple and not overwhelm potential distributors with too much as you present the business. Keep it simple.

BUT as you build a team you will find that a percentage of your EcoMates distributors will naturally gravitate towards some of the nutritional products. As they explore their back office they will redirect their nutritional spending within their EcoMates’ back office which will add to your Group Volume.

The strategy of purchasing products that you use any way through your own business is of course a tried and proven one within the network marketing industry. Again, all product purchases in your EcoMates back office and EcoMates shopping carts count towards your PV and GV making it easier than ever to create PV and GV!

You have of course been noticing more and more references to Israel, Australia and New Zealand.

NOW is the time to pre-position for the opening of each country.

How? AND what if I don’t know anyone in any of those countries?

Simple, start asking EVERYone you know who they know.

It can be as simple as:

Mark, do you think we can make money with a product that increases miles per gallon (kilometers per liter) and decreases emissions 30% or more!

Mark replies: Of course, people love to save money and there is a growing concern for the environment. Tell me more!

As you use the tools to present the business you will expose them to the various countries we do business in and are about to do business in.

Here’s how to go back to someone you have already exposed to EcoMates:

Anita, you know how I showed you how huge fortunes will be made with Ethos? Well we’re about to expand into Australia, New Zealand and Israel. Who do you know who is entrepreneurial minded in Australia? Who do you know with connections in Israel? Do you have any connections in New Zealand?

OR “You know how people will drive miles out of their way to save a few pennies per gallon (or liter) of gas or diesel — and how everyone nationally and internationally is concerned about the environment? Well, I’m looking for a few, key entrepreneurial minded individuals to help me set up the international distribution networks for a green product that increases miles per gallon 7 to 19%. We’re saving families dollars per fill- AND reducing emissions 30% or more! I’m looking for people in the United States, Canada, where we are in pre-launch, and we are about to launch in Australia, New Zealand and Israel.

When they want more information invite them to join you on a webinar, or “walk them through” the videos at

http://www.yourfutureisgreen.com

including Brilliant Compensation

http://yourfutureisgreen.com/internetworking

or three way them into your upline executive team leader. Utilize the tools and the help that are available to you.

What do we mean by “walking them through” http://www.yourfutureisgreen.com ? Sit down with them in person and go through the presentations or stay on the phone with them while they watch and listen to the presentations.

So what if no one you personally know has any international connections. No problem! Recruit and build a network and you will find those within your network, multiple levels removed from you who do!

SPECIAL NOTE FOR ISRAEL, AUSTRALIA, NEW ZEALAND:

So often in network marketing by the time companies start to expand into international markets there is a perception of lost opportunity in North America. That is NOT the case with EcoMates, we have barely scratched the surface in North America, the playing field is level for all. We are still in “pre-launch”. Take advantage of the opportunity to be an early innovator in all of the current and about to be open markets.
