It never ceases to amaze me how I am constantly approached to join the NEWEST, GREATEST THING and how disappointed, shocked and sometimes even outraged people are when I tell them, "No Thanks, I am as committed as I have ever been to Tampogo; call me back in 90 days when you are tired of pirates attacking your ship."

Most people are extremely puzzled when I say that and I just laugh. 

I was puzzled too when Chuck Stebbins our CEO at Tampogo started talking about Pirates.  I was so puzzled I emailed him and asked him, "What's with the Pirate thing."  He explained that is was just a term he uses for those networkers that jump from opportunity to opportunity looking for the next great thing and dragging anyone and everyone they know along with them. 

I couldn't agree more…

I agree so much that I started using the term too.  Now as I said I just ask these pirates to call me in and 90 days and when they do and when they see I am still not only with Tampogo but financially benefitting from Tampogo its amazing how much easier it is to get them to take a look and climb aboard our ship for safety.

So are you a pirate or are you a Tampogoan ready to help stranded sailors find safe harbor?

My 13 year old daughter and I did an audio testimonial for Botanical Buffet Body Wash and Facial Wash and we were fortunate enough to win in the Lucky Me Contest #4.

We were so happy and can't wait to get our product so we can continue to share it with others. 

FYI a great way to spread the word for Tampogo and it's products and YOUR business is to:

1.  Use The Products!!!

2.  Order a Champion package or if you can't afford that order just one extra product and share it with someone. 

Believe it or not it has been the most successful way of growing my business that I have found.

Anyway, Here is our audio testimonial; ENJOY…

If you have not yet heard our amazing Master Distributor at Tampogo Isaac McLemore passed away yesterday. 

I am personally saddened and I am sure there are so many  others across the world feeling the same way today as we face our loss. 

We will never forget him and I know myself and so many others are committed to continuing his legacy both within Tampogo and as true leaders in the network marketing arena.

Our thoughts and prayers are with his family.

I could never do him justice but…

HAVE A WONNNNNNNNNNNNNDERFUL DAY! and NEVER QUIT, NEVER QUIT, NEVER QUIT…

Well for those of us that live in a place that lives with Daylight Savings time this weekend was the time to spring forward.  Funny how everytime we have to change the clocks it makes me think about what's been going on in my life and this weekend was no different.

I realized that it's been almost a solid year since I made a real commitment to network marketing and having my own home business.

Things sure have changed in that year…

One year ago I was looking for an opportunity where I could work from home, support my family and allow me to actually enjoy what I am doing. 

In April I was introduced to a travel opportunity.  Wasn't at all interested in travel; but my sponsor Holly promised to help me so I jumped in.  During the next month I learned how to present the business.  Just as I was getting comfortable that particular business went into a holding pattern. 

The group Holly was in pointed us in the direction of a marketing tool and we all stampeded over there.  Again, learned that business and was actually having a miniscule amount of success which was giving me some confidence but  wasn't making any real money. 

In late July I was introduced to Tampogo.  While recruiting for my marketing tool I met my sponsor in Tampogo.  I thought I would just sign up for free; throw it  out here on my blog and if someone ever bought anything I would buy something to activate my account.   Then I was introduced to our Founders Chuck Stebbins and Isaac McLemore.  I bought a product on autoship within 24 hrs. and I have never looked back.

Things really began hopping for me quickly with Tampogo.  I introduced it to an associate I had only recently met in through the travel and marketing business and Tracy S. and I began a very fun, lucrative and amazing partnership.

About this time our mutual friend Holly indicated that the travel business was coming back to life and that we all needed to reactivate our accounts and take advantage of their new marketing system.  Again, I wasn't really gung ho but I figured I was so financially invested in this travel thing I should at least keep it active.  So stampede, stampede, stampede; we all followed again.

Well Tampogo was growing for me.  Every month I added my iReps and every month my I learned more about the vision for the business that Chuck and Isaac have. 

Next thing I know it is the end of September and I had just won the customer recruiting bonus in Tampogo.  I was over the moon…

Travel and Marketing business doing nothing…

Thanksgiving is upon us and Tracy and I are wondering how we can increase our success and help even more people.  We had a phone call withIsaac to brainstorm and T3 Training was born.  This was a major challenge for both of us but we rose to the occassion and began building a very informative and fun daily 30 minute training call that has gone on to become a corporate call within Tampogo. 

Holidays come and go and low and behold I am qualifying every month for President Circle and Power of Ten bonus pool at Tampogo.

2010 has continued to see my Tampogo business grow at a nice steady pace and in March things are really hopping since our wonderful leader Chuck has made it as easy as it gets to earn.  All anyone has to do is get signed up and purchase a fast track product by 3-19-10.  Then keep buying a fast track product each month; in August a diet product will be introduced where 25% of the revenue from that product will be put into a bonus pool for all active ireps who have bought product for the past 5 months and each month going forward.   

If you can't see the value in that forget about network marketing it isn't for you.

I am still a member of the Travel and Marketing group and recently it was  decided to move away from the marketing product and create our own tools.  I only know that what I do for Tampogo works so I keep doing it.

And that in a nutshell has been my business journey.  I am a stronger, happier and more successful person than I thought I could be.  Come back and track how things go and hey why not join me on my journey.  Just fill out your contact information on the "contact me" page at the top of this blog and I will be happy to introduce you to everything I do.

Here's to a better than great day for us all!

Life has a way of surprising us and it sure never ceases to amaze me…

I continue to grow emotionally, spiritually and financially and somehow the universe always puts exactly what I need in front of me when I need it. 

I have been blessed with amazing friends and family and during the last few weeks so many people have offered me help to keep me moving forward during my time of being computerless. 

Because of this I continue to grow and know any one can overcome anything it just takes learning how to raise yourself above self pity and sorrow and fill your mind and life with joy and abundance.

Tune in often; check out the T3 Calls; read the posts and pages and learn how to do exactly that…

Here's to a Better Than Great DAY!…

For those that don't know my computer died the weekend of my son's birthday. 

I am computerless…

A huge thanks to everyone for their patience and understanding. 

Fortunately, the wonderful people I work for at Accunet Web Services are allowing me to use their computer for an hour or so after I wrap up my work for the day and even better were able to help me find the missing link to get back into this dashboard.  (See there are still great employers out there.)

So I will begin updating everything and getting some new and fresh stuff out here.   It will take me some time because I have to manually write my thoughts out and then type them in here but I am that committed to you my reader and to my own success in my various businesses.

If you look back at the basis of our T3 training and so many of the other blog entries I have done in the past you will begin to see that I live by my own training and advice.  Without my ACTION acrynom I would not have been able to not only survive this time but I was still able to grow my Tampogo business in February and still get the President Circle Bonus and Power of Ten Bonus.

IF I CAN DO IT ANYONE CAN…

I am going to wrap it up for now but I will be adding material again and we will be able to all move forward and keep improving.

Do you do what you say you will.

You have to set the example for yourself.  I know it is hard.  There are so many days when I just don’t want to pick up the phone but I know I let myself down as well as my team when I don’t do this.  Even if no one else knows about it; I do.

The only way to master follow through is to do it. 

Even when it is hard; even when you don’t want to; you have to anyway.

If you don’t you will only find your self getting into all those bad procrastinating habits again and once again you will find yourself accomplishing nothing. 

So follow through.  Remember though that there are times when you need to reschedule something.  It happens.  Just pay attention and make sure you aren’t just rescheduling all the time and that within a weeks time you are following through on all that your promise.

I say it all the time: THE FORTUNE IS IN THE FOLLOW UP.
