TVI Express vs. Global Resorts Network – I like both!
I just came across a couple of business opportunities that are literally sweeping the web. Both are direct marketing / network marketing based businesses involved with the travel industry.
The first is GRN or Global Resorts Network and it has been around the longest – offering it’s memberships starting way back in 1986. It also has the highest entry cost to get started. At $3000 it is a large sum to pay to get started in a network marketing business. That $3000 also gets you a lifetime membership with GRN and it is transferable. That being said – the pay off is high as well – with the top end commissions being $1000 /sale. There are also commissions on sales made by team members whom are in your organization. Some affiliates with this company are earning high 6 figure incomes. Wtih your membership you have access to discount travel vacations at 3-5 star resorts around the world. There are also tools and resources available to the affiliate to help promote their business.
The other is called TVI Express – Travel Ventures International. TVI is very similar to GRN as they offer discount travel vacations as well – along with other perks and deals through many third party channels. TVI Express is relitively new, opening it’s doors in January 2009. TVI also costs less money to get involved with as well with a one time cost of about $250. TVI uses a different compensation plan where each member is part of a Travel Board and an Express Board which as more people join – cycles and moves you up the board. Once you reach the top or cycle you get paid. Commissions range from $500 to over $10000 depending on which board you are on. TVI is popular due to low cost entry point.
With these types of business plans, marketers can be part of a community that travels the globe, offers a business opportunity and provides a vehicle to supplement one’s income or even replace it. The neat things about these businesses is the travel aspect offered with their membership. Everyone travels and almost everyone would like a discount on their vacations whether it be a flight, all inclusive resort, cruise or hotel. This may or may not be for everyone as there is risk with anything offered on the web.
These days especially with the downturn in the economy, job loss and insecurity in the business sector – people are looking to supplement their incomes. Some part time while keeping their jobs and others are doing it FULL TIME – either by choice or by necessity. You cannot rely on the government or your job to provide you a pension as many have disappeared or been mismanaged; by developing multiple streams of income from a variety of online sources you can not only supplement your income but you can also become financially independent. Online marketers are making high 5 figure incomes and some are into the 6 figures not only with the two businesses discussed above but with many other opportunities that are offered on the web.
Want to Travel and Earn at the same time?
Looking to take your marketing and home-based business to the next level? I just came across a business opportunity that is literally sweeping the web. It is called TVI Express ( Travel Ventures International ). There is nothing magical about this business nor is there a ‘catch’ to making money with them. TVI combines three major trends on the web today:
- The Internet itself: Everyone and their dog is online these days.
- Travel/Tourism: Specifically discount travel vacations ( you should see what you get when you join! ).
- Home Based Business Opportunity’s: Virtually a limitless amount of home-based business opportunities to choose from.
Now everyone these days especially with the downturn in the economy, job loss and insecurity in the business sector – people are looking to supplement their incomes. Some part time while keeping their jobs and others are doing it FULL TIME – either by choice or by necessity. You cannot rely on the government to provide you a pension as many have disappeared or been mismanaged; by developing multiple streams of income from a variety of online sources you can not only supplement your income but you can also become financially independent. Online marketers are making high 5 figure incomes and some are into the 6 figures.
TVI is a vehicle that can make substantial incomes for people who apply themselves. It is a simple to follow and ethical marketing plan. The cool thing about TVI is that it does not have monthly costs nor a big ticket price tag to become a distributor. A one time fee of $250 dollars gets you started. No qualifying, no ongoing member dues, no quotas to meet.

I was never good at talking on the phone about business/marketing/opportunities. Do you find it hard to talk to associates or business seekers on the phone, getting hung up on, or not knowing how to handle objections?
Time after time, I would basically get laughed at followed by am immediate “Click”.
I just couldn’t figure it out. What was I doing wrong? There were so many people out there that were effortlessly sponsoring people on the phone. Remember if you are in mlm or network marketing you will eventually have to speak to someone.
I did this for what seemed like a lifetime. I wasn’t getting anywhere with my business, basically sponsoring one or two every now and then.
Recruiting, sponsoring, finding business partners is not an easy thing to do.
But then I found something that changed the way I talked to prospects forever. It was a video interview with Mike Dillard, and master recruiter Mark Wieser.
In this video Mark get grilled by Mike on how he is able to personally sponsor over 254 reps in one year and how he is able to do it with such ease.
I figured out that I needed to change the way that I was talking to the prospects. I needed to qualify them to see if they are right for my business, not if they would be interested in joining.
I also figured out that I am the boss, I need to control the situation, I am interviewing my prospects to see if they would be good enough to be part of my business.
Basically think of it as if you were the manager interviewing to hire a new employee.
By changing the way that I approach the conversation and the attitude that I have in the conversation, I am now not getting hung up on. I am sponsoring more than ever. Prospects are actually thanking me for the conversations that we have.
Sponsoring and talking to prospects doesn’t have to be hard, frustrating, or filled with rejection.
All you need to know is how to do it the right way, the fun way, from someone that knows how to do it and do it well.
So if you would like to learn how I overcame my fear of talking to prospects on the phone, now sponsor more than ever, and how I never hear the word no again, then you need to get your hands on this free 1 hour video interview.

Making Money Online – Can You Do It?
In this day and age there is a greater number of websites on the internet than there are people on this planet. This can make for a difficult time when trying to find a way to make money on the internet. A lot of opportunities promise you the world and never deliver. Let me give you a few things to consider when trying to choose a home based business opportunity online.
First realize that no one knows your work ethic like yourself. So no one else can make you a promise of how much money you will make, or the length of time it will take you to make it. I don’t care how good the product might be. Stay clear of a company that tells you that its possible to become rich with little or no work at all. For your home based business to stay strong, it needs to grow with the ever changing times. So you must always work at your business, updating, changing formulas, trying new marketing strategies, sending out the old and bringing in the new.
Never let your emotions get in the way of you using your common sense. When I first started looking for a online Home Based Business. I joined one company after another. The idea of being able to work at home clouded my judgments. I would join one company work with it a couple of months, I would never making any money. So I would move on to the next golden opportunity, and I would repeat the same process over and over. This went on for quite some time. I was under the impression that I could join a company, and the big checks would just start rolling in automatically. It just didn’t happen like that for me. It took me a couple of years to find out, in order to be successful with a business you need to learn the business. In order to learn the business you have to work at the business.
I remember back when I first set out to have a Home Based Business. I spent a lot of money. I purchased a lot of programs, and at the time thought that I had wasted a lot of time. Today I know that it took what it took, in order for me to get where I am today. If you are thinking of starting a online business, don’t be discouraged, not knowing if its the right one. Jump in with both feet, work it and make it the right program. I have been there that unsure feeling, not knowing if its going to work. This is the very reason that I am promoting my latest at home opportunity, because it is a program that dedicated to the new guy. It takes you by the hand and shows you exactly what to do, step by step. It even teaches you how to market your business. And that is the most important factor.
I think back to my earlier years, I probably had bought some pretty good products. But I didn’t know what to do with them. Having the best product in the world is useless if no one knows about it. Marketing is the most important piece of the online business puzzle. When you get the time stop by my website and look it over. I’m confident you will like what you see. Today it’s not about me, its about you. The hardest thing about having a Home Based Business, is taking the first step and getting started.
The harsh truth someone once shared with me is, If you are not willing to invest in yourself, then you need a job. You need to work for someone else. Start the journey to Financial Freedom. Wouldn’t you like to wake up in the morning, and be able to go and do anything that your heart desires? Wouldn’t you like to have the time and the money to take that dream vacation that others can only wish for? Get started today. It’s your responsibility, and only you can make it happen.
Teach a Man to be Duplicatable and his efforts are Multiplied.
Residual income has become a very common topic for people in the world today but what really is the best residual income opportunity out there? That’s a little bit of a tough question to answer because there are so many different types of residual income. If we define residual income this should help us find the best residual income opportunity. Simply put, residual income is defined as making some sort of a sale once and you continually get paid from that sale in regular intervals afterwards.
By taking that residual income definition, we can look around and see thousands of different types of residual income. So what is the best residual income opportunity? The best would have to be the network marketing industry.
With all the different types of residual income out there, network marketing gives the average person the greatest chance to create a residual income business that spits off lots of cash. In the network marketing industry, you end up getting residual income in 2 ways.
One way to get residual income is when you make a sale of your product. Typically, the products are consumable, meaning they run out, and then the person comes back and buys more. You sold them on the benefits once and they automatically come back for more. The second way is when you train someone to do what you just did and they make a sale, you taught and helped them make that sale so you get a cut too.
To get the easy residual income from network marketing, it takes setting up your system correctly and some time. After that, the cheques just keep rolling in and they get bigger and bigger. Just as your business duplicates it’s income – if you to become like your business and teach your business partners to do the same – all your efforts and income are then Multiplied!
Because of the nature of how network marketing is designed, it’s clearly the best residual income opportunity in the world.
Are you looking for the Holy Grail? Then you Want Passive Income!
What are some examples of passive income? Well many people argue that there is no such thing, that in order for you to make money then real wealth must be generated in the form of work or labor at some point. While this might be true, we can still put things on a continuum of passive income on one end, and active work on the other end.
For example, earning interest on a big pile of savings is pretty much 100 percent passive. Likewise, if you own a business and you pay someone a salary to manage and handle all aspects of that business, then the money earned from that business is pretty much passive. The only thing you have to do is “manage the manager.” It’s entirely hands off for you and for the most part you don’t have to lift a finger.
And of course there is the other end of the spectrum where you are slaving away for 40 hours plus each week at your day job, trading away the hours of your life for dollars so that you can continue to live in comfort. That is the ugly end of the spectrum, the one that all of you probably know too well.
So how can we shift towards more passive income? How can we get off the slave labor merry-go-round?
What are some of these coveted passive income opportunities?
In order to uncover those and pursue them, you will have to do some upfront work. Yes this goes against the idea of “passive” but essentially we want to build a money making system that continues to pay us over and over again.
One way to do that is with vending machines. Buy some vending machines, fill them with stock, secure a location for them, and let the money roll in. Yes there are some steps involved there, as well as some up front investment, but there are people out there who make a good living with this. There is also maintenance involved as you either have to stock the machines and collect the money yourself or pay someone else to do it. But it’s an idea; a system that can be scaled out to generate alternate income.
The internet provides systems like this that are ripe for passive income. Anyone can start a blog for free and then monetize it with advertisements. If you can build traffic to such a website then you can make money from the advertising. The beauty of a system like this is that there is almost infinite scale and an infinite amount of topics with which to target. Not only that but you can certainly learn how to do all this for free simply by browsing the web.
It is true that such a system is not passive but it is quite a ways down the scale towards being passive. If you can build up a network of money making websites then eventually you can pay someone else to manage them for you and the income will be truly passive at that point. As it is now I have a very respectable part time income coming in from only three and half hours of work per week using these ideas.
Earning Residual Income – is easier than you think….
Signing up for an affiliate program usually only takes a few minutes and once you have an affiliate link you can start earning commissions immediately. Many people think that residual income takes a long time for results but in fact can be very fast because you earn commissions on the first sale as well and not just the re-orders and re-bills.
Earning residual income is as easy as getting people to click your link and place an order or start a subscription with the merchant. You can include affiliate links and product recommendations in newsletters, forum posts, directories, articles, and email marketing.
You’ve probably seen the pyramid schemes and MLM programs advertising fast residual income but that also requires you to pay each month to stay in the program as well as actively recruit new members. Each time a new member joins, you earn residual income from the fees they pay. The idea is that people under you earn you money which is great if you are at the top of the pyramid but terrible if you are lower down where there’s nobody else to recruit. Not only are these programs usually illegal because no product is being interchanged, they can be a losing venture if you don’t recruit enough people to the program. True residual income earns you future money for your past effort. Instead, all money stops as soon as you stop paying your monthly fee.
Earning reliable and free residual income stream from home is totally possible. Lots of businesses offer residual income affiliate programs that anyone can join. Products with monthly subscriptions and re-billing are good examples where businesses are willing to compensate affiliates with residual income commissions for as long as a customer you sent to them continues to subscribe. For example, gambling, web hosting, adult website, and Internet dating merchants are good candidates for offering monthly residual income. But this is just the start. Lots of merchants that don’t have monthly re-billing still offer residual income for returning customers who place re-orders. So a customer who purchases a product today and then returns three months down the road to order again will earn you commissions on both orders. Examples of this type of residual income are jewelers, herbal supplement companies, and clothing stores but the list of merchants is extensive. I recommend you search Google or visit a free residual income directory dedicated to residual income opportunities. I am involved with and use Global Resorts Network as my primary business and for my vacations. It is the best of both worlds; an income generating business and a discount travel repository of 5 Star resorts, cruises, exclusive resorts all for substantial savings.
Earning fast free residual income is as easy as finding a business that offers residual income and having receptive people click your affiliate link. The link works immediately and costs you nothing to use. There are thousands of companies that offer free residual income affiliate programs for a multitude of different products. Once you find one that you’re comfortable with and that’s relevant, all you have to do is get customers from your emails, website, or newsletters to follow your recommendations and purchase from the merchant. Before you know it, you’ll be generating fast free monthly residual income from a home-based business.
Wealth Formula – Use it to Your Advantage.
These are:
Wealth Mindset
Wealth Knowledge
Wealth Planning
Wealth Action
It links each of these four component through the plus sign, +, which signifies that each of the four components are necessary for you to create wealth. In other words, missing one or more of the four wealth components will dramatically impact your ability to generate wealth.
For example, you could mentally prepare yourself, learn everything you need to make enormous wealth and create the most detailed plan to achieve your desired level of wealth, but if you don’t action it then all that preparation is worthless.
Similarly, if you mentally prepare yourself, learn everything you need to make enormous wealth and run off taking action with your new-found mindset and knowledge but fail to make a plan it is like setting off in your car to go somewhere you’ve never been without taking a map. What’s your wealth destination? How will you know if you’ve achieved what you wanted to achieve? How do you know your using the right investment vehicle? How do you know if you’re on track or not to reach your target? Are you surpassing or underachieving against realistic milestones? All of these questions would be easily answered with proper planning.
So let’s look at each of the four wealth creation categories in turn.
Wealth mindset:
Wealth Mindset is the first of the four wealth creation categories and examines the importance of the correct mindset to creating wealth and financial freedom. Wealth mindset covers the interaction between you and your environment and the process of adjusting your thought process to think like the wealthy.
For example, the poor and middle class generally think that money is scarce and hard to come by. Saying such as “Money doesn’t grow on trees” and “I can’t afford that” spring to mind. The wealthy see a world of opportunity and abundance. They see money as little more than a concept and simply the by-product of providing value to others. They also know that offering value to others is only limited by their imagination and thus money must too only be limited by their imagination. The wealthiest people of the planet simply understand this and have incredible imaginations that create amazing value to others.
For example, Jeff Bezos realised that bookstores were severely limited in the amount of books they could offer their customers due to geographic and physical constraints. In other words bookstores could only service customers that lived near them and could only offer a limited amount of books, which fit in their store. He saw an amazing opportunity to solve these two problems by giving access to anyone anywhere via the Internet and offering a catalogue that is 40 times the size of a large bookstore. Jeff founded the multi-billion dollar company Amazon!
Wealth Knowledge:
Wealth knowledge is the second of the four wealth creation categories and examines the financial knowledge that is essential to create wealth and financial freedom. It is essential for wealth creation that you are knowledgeable about your own personal finances, the economy, the psychology of markets, compound interest and the asset classes and investment products available to you. Further, you need to understand how to interpret financial statements, investment strategies and risk management all from the wealth creation perspective.
Wealth Planning:
Wealth planning is the third of the four wealth creation categories and examines the essential component of planning to create wealth and financial freedom. Wealth planning is absolutely essential, yet on 3% of the population has clearly written goals and plans. A Harvard Business School study found that this 3% earned 10 times the average of the other 97% and they accumulated 98% of the wealth.
Wealth Action:
Wealth Action is the forth and final wealth creation category and examines the element of action in your wealth journey to create wealth and financial freedom. The importance of action to achieving wealth is obvious. Nothing can be achieved without action.
By using the wealth formula you can easily learn where your wealth creation strengths and weaknesses are and where you need to concentrate your efforts at improving.
The Illusion of Wealth.
Wealth, prosperity, abundance or the illusion thereof that our debt laden society provides, has not led us to have more leisure time, as was forecast a generation ago, nor has it helped us live better lives, build better relationships, or build better businesses and organizations. The average American CEO has a tenure of two years, and one in five North Americans suffers from the physical or emotional ravages of stress.
After our survival needs have been met, success cannot be realized by the simple financial bottom line but is the derivative of the purpose, passion and potential we express in our personal lives and in our jobs.
The fundamental basis for human success can be addressed to the basic human desire to validate our existence not by what we get, but rather by what we can give. Our greatest pain does not come from what we cannot have, but rather from the invalidation that we feel, at not expressing our potential in our lives and our work. Potential that can only be expunged and expressed when we go back to the simple truth that the values that are most near and dear to us are the fabric that builds gratification and significant success. Values that remain more important than ever in a society where stress and discontent fill our lives, our workplaces and our communities. Values that can lead us to create a better bridge between our heads and our hearts, between the power that exists when we align our best self with our best work and focus on our power to create our best world.
Often we are too busy, too pressured or too distracted to think about the basic simple fact that the values that we hold close to heart will EITHER conflict with the way we are living and working and cause us undue stress and inner conflict OR alternatively, we can nurture and grow those values to help us decrease stress and increase success in our lives and our businesses.
It is time to begin again to build our lives, businesses and organizations that mirror the universal values that speak to a evolution of self, an evolution of leadership, and an organic evolution of business organizations — we can do this by creating a values bridge between what is and what can be: a better self, a better life, a better business and a better world.
How much stronger would you feel if you took your best self to work and to play each day, by living the values that you set and that you believe in?
How much more streamlined and efficient would your organization be if you could live and work by your convictions and standards in real life and real time?
Here are five questions to ponder.
Five questions that can help you plant the seeds for more success and less stress:
A. What is your intent/vision and how is this intent channeled in your personal life and your work?
B. What is your greatest fear/stressor and how does this fear/stressor limit your personal and professional vision and your potential?
C. What are your three most important values?
D. What can you do today to eliminate the fear/stress by bringing your three most important values to life in your personal and professional surroundings?
E. When are you going to take action? Today? Tomorrow? Next Week?….
Answer those truthfully and you have taken the first step on your journey to Success.
You will soon be paving your own pathway to enrichment in both your personal and business surroundings.
Remember that it is not so much the goal at the end – but the journey in getting there.
A Little Short On Cash Building Your Business?
Building your home business can truly be a costly one. Each time you turn around you seem to spend every dollar you have on advertising and not getting ahead in your business.
It basically will nickel and dime you to death. 
You really can’t get ahead in your business if you have to spend a ton on advertising, especially when you are first starting out.
Wouldn’t it be nice if someone could show you basically step by step how you can build your home business without spending a ton of money while doing it?
Well, there is some good news.
I recently came across something that I think will really help your business as it has mine.
It is a videos series by a guy named Mike Dillard called “Building On A Budget”.
In these videos Mike shows you how to build any home business for $500 or less.
I took these free videos and purchased his ridiculously low priced book, and within two weeks of applying the techniques he teaches and am now getting as many as 10 new qualified prospects per day.
The best part is that I did not spend much money while doing it.
Now I have the tools to grow my business without getting nickel and dimed to death.
