Kim Klaver: Is MLM REALLY THIS BAD?

Wednesday, July 30, 2008

What if they didn't know it was MLM?

Negative perceptions about mlm (network marketing) plague network marketers almost wherever they go. That makes for a pretty crappy experience for folks, and it's one reason people quit.

The Microsoft Windows operating system, Vista, has the same perception problems. People have heard so much negative about it that they don't want to be bothered. They enjoy ragging on it, as you will see below.

However, the marketing team at Vista did something very clever, and documented it in this two minute video below.

After soliciting the usual "oh Vista sucks" type comments from people, they showed them something "new" -- in disguise. Watch these jaw-dropping reactions.

Next up for a transformational video: (new school) network marketing?

A Poem by Henry Van Dyke read by Lynn in Celebration of Kenn Huggins Passing.


Lynn changed only one word by adding Ken's name in last sentence of poem.



"A Mile With Me"



O who will walk a mile with me
Along life's merry way?
A comrade blithe and full of glee,
Who dares to laugh out loud and free,
And let his fancy play,
Like a happy child, through the flowers gay
That fill the field and fringe the way
Where he walks a mile with me.

And who will walk a mile with me
Along life's weary way?
A friend whose heart has eyes to see
The stars shine out o'er the darkening lea,
And the quiet rest at the end o' the day,
A friend who knows, and dares to say,
The brave, sweet words that cheer the way
Where he walks a mile with me.

With such a comrade, such a friend,
I fain would walk till journey's end,
Through summer sunshine, winter rain,
And then?- Farewell, Ken we shall meet again!

Callers Response to Ken Huggins Crossing

Bernard Tritz - who had a NDE (near death experience) himself - shares this message he received from Ken Huggins after Ken totally crossed ver.

This message was read at Ken's memorial service today.

My dear dear friends,

I have gone to a new life. I know you are missing me terribly, be comforted in the thought that one day we will all be together again enjoying a new life. A life full of everything we could not experience before and all that we wished for is now reality. Some of you understand perfectly well what I am talking about. During our life together we spoke of future and possibilities. We dreamed together of the perfect place and the perfect life. Well it’s real for me now. Be certain that I am with you although you can’t hear me or see me, I am in the next room near by. We will work together but on a different plane this time.

Please be not sadden, I am gone from sight but in spirit I am with you. I am fully totally and completely happy. I am fulfilled and one day you will be to. Remember to always love to the maximum. Enjoy life to the fullest. Serve like you never served before. Love like you never loved before. Every breath you take can be the last one make it count. Every person you encounter is a child of God thus very precious. Many are trust into you care for a time, treat them well. Be good to each other your next life depend on it.

If tears must fall let them be tears of joy, have no regrets our life together was fulfilled.

I am off to my next assignment, some things we have no control over. Prepare for it the best you can, keep in mind everyone of you will depart from this life. It is a great experience. I love all of you beyond your understanding. I am full now. I am complete now.

We will be together again.

Love

Ken

Through Bernard Tritz

One of our most esteemed volunteer mentors, who you hear every Saturday night on our weekly core training, Richard Dennis, shared his beautiful remembrance of how the team rallied and supported Richard and his wife Cheryl and other family members when their dear son Garth passed over last year.

Here is Richard's contribution to our conversation - via email

Our son Garth passed on June 10th, 2007.

The outpouring of support from our team was a great
comfort to us. We had dozens and dozens and dozens of email and
letters. Some had made photos of Garth from a webpage to pay tribute
to him. Many shared their own pain and understanding.

It was really tough for us and, to be honest, it still is. I think of
him every day. I cry for our loss at some time almost every day.

It greatly touched us to have the support of those who knew Garth and
those who didn't, and especially to feel the empathy from so many in
our group.

And, of course, we had no insurance to cover Garth's funeral expenses.
You and others were very kind to help us with that expense.

It was all a great comfort to us. Cheryl & I are so grateful to
everyone in our team.

And we're greatly saddened to now lose Ken Huggins. He had a huge
heart, and a great sense of humor. He was a Green's Green. I'll miss
him a lot.

Thanks, Pat.

Richard Dennis

Bob Burg AUDIO INTERVIEW - THE GO GIVER

BOB BURG

The Go-Giver tells the story of an ambitious young man named Joe who yearns for success. Joe is a true go-getter, though sometimes he feels as if the harder and faster he works, the further away his goals seem to be. And so one day, desperate to land a key sale at the end of a bad quarter, he seeks advice from the enigmatic Pindar, a legendary consultant referred to by his many devotees simply as the Chairman.

Over the next week, Pindar introduces Joe to a series of successful “go-givers”: a restaurateur, a CEO, a financial advisor, a real estate broker and “The Connector,” who brought them all together. Pindar’s friends share with Joe the Five Laws of Stratospheric Success and teach him how to open himself up to the power of giving.

Joe learns that changing his focus from getting to giving—putting others’ interests first and continually adding value to their lives—ultimately leads to unexpected returns.

Imparted with wit and grace, The Go-Giver is a heartwarming and inspiring tale that brings new relevance to the old proverb “give and you shall receive.”
