We all know some famous rich people who have become wealthy as a result of the network they built. We know Bill Gates (Microsoft), Sam Walton (Walmart) and Jeff Bezos (Amazon).

Robert Kiyosaki’s Rich Dad had a hero who became very rich by building his own network. This man is better known for the product he perfected, but really became rich because of the network he built across the world. Even today, many of us think Thomas Edison invented the light bulb, but in actuality he only improved and perfected the light bulb. His true stroke of genius was to create a company
that strung electrical lines that allowed the light bulb to penetrate society. His network made him, Thomas Edison, a multimillionaire!

Most of us are not a Thomas Edison, a Bill Gates, a Sam Walton or a Jeff Bezos, but we want to create the same wealth for ourselves. Robert Kiyosaki in his book The Business of the 21st Century, makes the valid point (his Asset #4, The Power of Your Own Network, that you gain from Network Marketing) that Network Marketing offers millions of people the opportunity to build their own network and create the same wealth created by Thomas Edison and the rest of the famous multimillionaires!

If your leadership skills suck it’s because you SUCK! Those are some harsh words aren’t they. Too Bad. The question you have to ask yourself is whether it is true or not? The only reason I am saying this is to make you feel a little uncomfortable. If I have accomplished that, then I did what I set out to do.

You see, the only time we change in life is when we are uncomfortable PERIOD

As you are reading this, you are probably sitting in your chair and when you get a little uncomfortable you’ll probably move around until you find that perfect relaxed position. If you are not uncomfortable, then you probably won’t do a thing to make things better. Right? That’s no different than being a follower vs. a leader.

So, be truthful with me and more importantly, with yourself. Are you the Leader you want to be in life? Are you maybe just a little too comfortable where you are and you are not willing to go to that next level because it will be UNCOMFORTABLE? Read more…

Who is in your Circle of Friends? You may have never asked yourself this question before, but it is a vital question to ask. This question, as you may have already guessed, matters most if you want to become rich.

(I still love Pooh Bear and especially Eeyore, don’t you?)

There is some excellent guidance on this subject as Robert Kiyosaki’s Asset #3 that you gain from your involvement in network marketing. He actually has eight assets you gain as he describes them in his book The Business of the 21st Century.

Robert, like many others I’ve heard, says that your income will tend to average the income of your five closest friends. So if you want the average income of your five closest friends to be a sizable amount, Read more…

Do you realize the importance of your personal development? Do you know that your level of success is determined by your level of self-development? Do you work to develop yourself everyday? I bet your network marketing business pushes you to develop yourself, right? Well all these questions lead to the 2nd Asset that Robert Kiyosaki knows you gain by involvement in a network marketing business from his book The Business Of The 21st Century. That Asset #2 is a profitable path to personal development!

If you are an open-minded person that decides that network marketing is an answer for you, you must realize that it’s not just about changing what you do, but it’s about changing who you are! Most of us are middle-class people who now aspire to be financially free. There is a big gap between middle-class and financially free. To accomplish this monumental change, you must Read more…

Are you ready to begin to learn the assets you gain by developing a network marketing business? Ok, great! Then we’ll start slowly so we can fully understand and take advantage of each asset.

Robert Kiyosaki identifies and lays out these eight assets plus some other excellent advantages in his latest book – The Business of the 21st Century.
Network Marketing is Not about Making Income

Let’s start out with a profound statement made by Robert “Network marketing is not about making more income; it’s about building an asset.” Now this is not how most people think at first. As we begin, we are only focused on bringing in more income. But that is short-sighted. Rather we need to think like Big Business owners and think about the income-producing asset we can create by building our network. As we recruit people to build their own Big Business, we create an network of big businesses that generate passive income for us. It’s passive income since our team has made the sale that created the income that we have received. We did not have to make all those sales ourselves, therefore, the income is passive.

Now to begin to look at the 8 assets that you gain from network marketing, I’ll cover #1 in this post and the rest in future posts. Robert’s #1 Wealth Building Asset earned through your network marketing business is Read more…

Whether you are in Tribe Syndication Association (TSA) or not, you are not going to want to miss this free webinar. You may be asking yourself, “What the heck is TSA?” Well, let me tell you, my friends. TSA, as we call it, is one of the FASTEST growing social media tribes on the net PERIOD.

Back in early January of this year, I started thinking about the social media tribe concept. Social Media Tribes are where people come together in one place and help each other by promoting each others content around the internet. Most tribes at this time were using systems like Skype or similar tools and were meeting once a week to “blast their content” out across the airwaves during an hour. To me, this concept wasn’t powerful enough because the same people were the only ones commenting … Plus, what if some people in your tribe couldn’t make it to that Skype call and what if and what if and the list goes on. Now I’m not saying that it didn’t provide value. It did. But, was is really that powerful?

Now imagine a system to where there’s an organized system, where you can access it anytime and syndicate on your schedule, where there’s a rotation of over 100+ people to maximize getting hits from different IP Addresses, where people are syndicating over 25,000+ of material per week, where people in this tribe are leaving over 1,000+ blog comments per week!!!

Now that’s POWER!
Now that’s Tribe Syndication Association (TSA)!
Best of all, we do it for you and it’s All FREE!!! Read more…

Now some of you are looking at this post title and saying to yourself “What the heck is Dave calling me?” I’m not saying that you are using social media to sell your body to others for money but, a lot of people are using social media to push their businesses to make a quick buck. To me, this is very similar to a “Street Walker” asking every John that passes her what can I do to get your money? When it comes to social media, are you going to be a force for good? Or are you going to turn to the dark side – ruining your chances and infuriating those who cross your path?

Are You A Social Media Prostitute?

Social media when used properly is about building relationships and not about instant money. I’m sure all of you see it time and time again, but maybe you don’t realize that you may be doing similar things. Selling your reputation for a quick sale in social media will be your demise in the future. Just like a prostitute, many people on the internet are looking for the quick buck! For those who use this approach, the money will come from time to time, but in the end, do you really think these people can hold their heads high? Building integrity should be first and foremost and then the monetary Read more…

Are you one of the many who has found that their safe secure job is no longer?  Or are you lucky and only your hours have been cut? Are you starting to realize that a job, your current one or any other, will not take you where you want to financially?  Do you have aspirations to do so much more with your life? To have so much more? To become so much more? To use your money to make money?  Well Robert Kiyosaki and I have an answer for you.  I pulled Robert’s answer from his latest book “The Business of the 21st Century“.

First, you are so right in the realization that your job, with its insecurity, its income being taxed at the highest rates and its lack of tax deductions, will not create the financial freedom that you are looking for.  We all can now certainly see the insecurity in the job market.  We can all watch and experience the increase in the unemployment rate.  As an employee, your destiny is determined by people who you have no control over, and your personal situation and needs are the farthest from the minds of those that make the decision.

In regards to the tax rates that apply to the earned income you receive from your employment, the tax rate is not limited in any way for this type of income like it is for capital gains or passive income types.  Therefore, if your earned income is significant in amount, it will be taxed in the highest tax bracket which is currently set to be 35% in 2010 and 39.6% in 2011.  Does Uncle Sam deserve that much of your hard earned money?

First off, I want to say that this post may tick a lot of you people off PERIOD. I know it will because most of you are so emotionally involved with your product or service and what I am about to say, is going to make you upset. That’s fine. We all need a reality check once in awhile to make sure that we are headed down the right path. While this post is not intended to push you in to our business opportunity, it is intended for you to evaluate your current business and make sure you understand what it is you may be marketing.

Dawn and I got started in Network Marketing after reading some books by Donald Trump, Robert Kiyosaki and others. Unfortunately when we first started in this industry we were IGNORANCE on fire. We got caught up in all the HYPE the company was pushing and really didn’t look at it from a TRUE business professional standpoint. They dangled the Black Mercedes, the Jets, the Big Piles of Money, Vacations and of course Residual Income for the sales pitch. Guess what, we too fell for it, hook, line and I think I choked on the sinker!

I mean come on, if all these dumb, stupid people can make all this money, certainly Read more…

Yes, it’s true, I was on the phone with our financial idol, Robert Kiyosaki! (our dog is named Kiyo, if that gives you any idea how significant Robert’s teachings have been to us!) OK, I suppose you want to know how it happened. Here it is. Myself and 3,000 other network marketers for our primary business were on the phone as Robert and his wife Kim were the guest speakers on one of our team conference call Sunday night. Did I care that I had to share his wisdom and the sound of his live voice with 3,000 other people? No way! I was so happy that so many of us could have such a fantastic experience, receiving personal guidance from the financial master.

And guess what else was even better! Robert (yes, I feel I can call him by his first name now since he spoke to me on the phone!) was specifically endorsing our primary business! We feel so honored and privileged to have chosen one of the very few, if any, network marketing businesses that is endorsed by the man who gave us the courage and sound financial principles to change our lives through network marketing. We couldn’t be happier or feel more confident in our decision!

Ok, now let’s get into the specifics of what Robert and Kim Kiyosaki said Read more…
