Hello Suzanne Lavigne here again with my update on the group that I am involved with called 180daystogreatness.
Again another action packed week that has been full of work and the urgency to get things accomplished. When building a home based business you have to move with a sense of urgency and our coach, Nadira Haniff makes sure that we do not get complacent. When you do, that is when you start to put other things before your business and before you know it your business is no longer the priority.
That being said, I do believe that family is still the priority but lets face it there are just some things that really do not need to get done daily. Take laundry for example, I have a family of five so I still do laundry every day but it definitely no longer gets folded on a daily basis. Heck our pool table has now taken on a new name. It is called the laundry table, if you want to find something that is washed you go look on the pool table and as far as playing a game of pool you have one night that it is open for playing before the laundry starts to be piled on again. Of course this is just an example but I know there are a lot of ladies that can appreciate that story and if someone complains tell them they can fold all the laundry themselves and I bet they will never complain again! As you can tell I do prioritize and my business will come before laundry any day.
This past week Nadira held a tele-seminar that was again a huge hit for those that attended. What was supposed to be a one hour long seminar turned out to be two and a half hours. The time went by so quickly as I sat intently watching the PowerPoint and listening to what was being said. This information ranged from business strategies, to marketing to list building and so much more. Information that is required by everyone who is growing their home based business both online and offline. These next 12 weeks are very crucial for your business as decisions are being made as we speak by households all over the world on ways to improve their life in the coming year. That could mean a healthier lifestyle, extra income etc. Everyone needs to prepare their business now for the growth that will be taking place in the next 12 weeks. Now is not the time to become complacent. To learn more on what is required to move your business forward in the New Year join 180daystogreatness NOW!
One other piece of information that I would like to share with everyone is I have another website that is now up and running. It is called SecondIncomesNow and if you have time pop on over and check it out, let me know what you think. I love feedback both positive and negative as that is how we learn.
So take this week and get busy laying the foundation for the growth that will take place in your business in the coming months, prioritize your activities, join the "FREE EXPLOSIVE Marketing Tips" tomorrow MON evening @ 9:30pm EST and leave the laundry for another day. If anyone asks just tell them that Suzanne said it was okay.
This way I will see you all at the top, the very top, the tip top…

BLOGS AS A MARKETING TOOL
To blog or not to blog that is the question.
Have you asked yourself that question before? If you have you are among the many small home based business owners that are confused about marketing yourself and your products online?
In this time when the economy is no longer about what is happening locally we all have to change our way of doing business. This is now a global economy and what better way to get your knowledge and your expertise out to the masses then investing a bit of time and energy into blogs as a marketing tool.
When I first started my own blog a few years ago I just wrote little paragraphs here and there about things that I thought people may want to know. I am sure that the search engines did not even notice me as I was not using any of the many keywords that they look for as far as content in my written blog.
If you are unsure about having a written blog you can always tackle something that I love doing and that is a video blog that you post on YouTube. If you have an artistic flair or if you are like my mother, she cannot draw a straight line with a ruler, you will still be able to make a top notch video with pictures that you can use from the internet. But yes, you should remember to use the proper key words there also!!
I have recently discovered a program called 180daystogreatness that has taught me the skills that I need to market myself and my products online. I have also found other internet marketing tools that not only help me build my blog traffic but have helped me with my viral marketing campaigns, social networking sites and more!!
Whether you are a newby just starting out with your first MLM Company or whether you are a seasoned veteran looking at ways to rejuvenate an existing business, give blogging a try. With the proper tools and the proper coaching you will be surprised with the results and you will become an old pro in no time.

Your Network Marketing Business and Your Exercise Program
You are probably looking at the title to this article and think that I am totally off the wall. What the heck do these two things have in common? More then what you can ever imagine and I will share what I know from personal experience.
I ordered an exercise machine years ago, a great little piece of exercise equipment that gave me a workout just putting it together. I remember the day it arrived, I was all excited, just like a little child at Christmas. I ran, got a pair of scissors and frantically opened the box, tore apart all the Styrofoam just to get to the machine inside!!
Disappointment #1 I had to assemble the thing. I did realize that there was SOME assembly required but the word some was very understated. So in a very meticulous way I separated all the pieces, laid them out on the floor just like in the diagram carefully counting every nut and bolt to ensure that I could build it to the specifications in the book. I am not talking pamphlet here, I am talking a book!! After a very trying evening I managed to get this equipment together and there in front of me were spare parts on the floor. It looked good, it worked so I figured they must have shipped extra pieces just in case!!
I donned the shirt that came with the equipment looked in the mirror and low and behold disappointment # 2. I did not look like that lady in the commercials that wears this shirt. I bought this equipment, assembled it, wore the shirt what more did I have to do? Oh that’s right I actually had to set up an exercise routine and USE the equipment.
After a few days of looking at the book and rearranging my schedule I started the exercises only to find out, yup you guessed it disappointment #3, it wasn’t nearly as much fun as it looked on TV! There was actually work involved; trying to get in shape is work there is no fun there at all!!
Now let’s see what is involved in your network marketing business. Someone spoke to me about a product that is the best thing since sliced bread. Hypes up the opportunity and states that it will be fun and easy to build a six figure income quickly and then you can sit back and reap the rewards for the rest of your life.
Now this is how that played out in the real world. I got all excited about the opportunity so I ordered a starter kit that gave me some products to use and all the information required to start building my wealth. I anticipated the day that it arrived and when it did, just like a child at Christmas I ripped open the package (didn’t need scissors this time) and poured all the contents out onto the floor anxiously looking over the contents to see the start of my successful business and a whole new life.
Disappointment #1, there is hardly any product but a whole bunch of literature that needs to be read. Nobody said anything about ALL this literature!!
Feeling a little overwhelmed at this point I dutifully put all the product away so it will be ready for use and pile all the literature to read tonight after supper. The excitement does come back slowly and I call a friend or two and tell them about this great new business that I just got involved in and guess what, here it comes, disappointment #2. That’s right they laughed, how dare they laugh at me when I am only trying to better my position in life!!
I called my sponsor and they say oh don’t worry about them they are just dream stealers you just need to make more calls and talk to more people. So I do as I am told only to be laughed at more so I call my sponsor once again and here comes disappointment #3, I find out that they have moved on to the next best thing out there and they no longer want to talk to me about that old business.
So in my frustration I pack up all the product and the literature in the box that it came in and put it out of site for a while until I decide what to do with it. Heck I might as well put it on top of the exercise equipment because that is just gathering dust anyway!!
So now do you see what both of these have in common? Whether you are building an exercise program or a successful internet marketing business there is no success in life without a game plan, a schedule, clear defined goals and the ability to educate yourself on the tasks at hand.
There is a program that is being dubbed that most jolting program on the internet that will help you with a game plan, a schedule and give you clear defined goals. You owe it to yourself to take a look and see what all the buzz is about.

The Network Marketing Tipping Point
There is a certain point in your network marketing business that is known as the tipping point. If you can remember the old English District Scales that were perfectly balanced with what looked like a dish on each side you can maybe visualize what this tipping point may look like. You add the same amount of pebbles to each side but all it will take is just one extra grain of sand to make the scale tip like it is much heavier.
Your network marketing business is just like the scale above. You work at it sometimes for weeks, months or even years depending on the amount of time that you work your network marketing business each day. You work and work but it seems like it is going absolutely no where and then out of the blue it just starts to take off and gets to have such momentum it is like it has a life of its own. The problem is that it takes a lot of work and a lot of effort to get to that point. A lot of people do not see the results that they want and they think that they are doing all this for nothing and they give up just before that tipping point, just before their business is about to explode.
Just when you think that there is absolutely nothing more that you can do and you want to give up because your home based business is going no where you have to keep going, you have to persevere because the next person that you get into your business or the next function that you attend just may be the tipping point in your business that will cause it to explode to unparalleled growth.
So don’t ever give up because that tipping point may be around the next corner.

180 Days to Greatness – A Marketing Experiment – My Personal Journey November 9, 2008
Hello, Suzanne Lavigne here for my weekly update on my personal journey in the group “180 Days to Greatness”.
It has been yet again a very interesting week!! All the things that I have learned within the last 39 days for my home based business are all starting to fall into place and make sense to me. When I first started with the 180daystogreatness program, activities DID get done but let’s face it they all just did not make sense at first. I did what I was told to do but I think that some of the time I probably looked like one of my dogs that sits there with their heads cocked when they are trying to get something figured out and they are totally confused. With the puzzle pieces falling into place I am confident that I am learning at a rate that will not only ensure success online for myself but best of all for others that I can help and guide in the right direction so that their dreams can come true also. I of course will not become too placid with my learning as I know that coach, Nadira Haniff, will have some new and very interesting activities ahead of us in the weeks to come. Activities that I am sure will have me cocking my head at first and I will be stretched to my limits once again but I will learn what I need and overcome the challenges.
This week I posted my third YouTube video. I am getting much faster at creating them and my views are also increasing!! That is great news on both counts. The social groups that I have started are really starting to attract people and I am thankful that I can start to help others in their business. The friends that I am also making around the world are wonderful. It still amazes me that we can be friends with others on the other side of the world!! Technology is so great!!
Nadira Haniff, the Creator and Coach of 180daystogreatness will be hosting another free webinar and I am sure that it will be just as astounding, just like the first. I personally invite each and every one of you to register for this call. It takes place on Tuesday, November 11 at 9:30 pm ET and lasts for only 45 minutes.
Find out for yourself why this program is being dubbed the most "JOLTING PROGRAM"' on the internet - delivering results and creating a new wave of entrepreneurs. It is an incredible blend of mindset, skill set, strategic marketing, game planning and some pride & determination to cross the finish line in business!
Don’t be disappointed; please register early as there are only 150 seats available.
I will see you all the top, the very top, the tip top….
