How to Have a Productive Day Rather than a Busy Day

How to Have a Productive Day Rather than a Busy Day

Quote of the Day: "At the end of each day you should play back the tapes of your performance. The results should either applaud you or prod you" -Jim Rohn

Did you know that there is a GIGANTIC difference between having a productive day versus simply having a busy day? I can't tell you how many people I know, whom I have worked with personally, who THOUGHT that they were being productive in their home businesses, only to find out that they were simply staying conducting menial tasks that meant nothing to their bottom line.

Folks...in the end, the only thing that matters is PRODUCTION. What did you produce today? In fact, here's a GREAT TIP to help keep you on track. I do it. It works! Take out a piece of paper and write down the following words:WHAT DID I PRODUCE TODAY ???Now...post it someplace you HAVE TO SEE IT DAILY. The bathroom mirror, your computer monitor. Put it someplace where you CANNOT MISS IT. That is the important part. Reading it daily and asking yourself that simple question. If you want to make it in this industry, you must PRODUCE. Being busy doesn't cut it. Being productive is all that matters.Focus your time conducting Revenue Producing Activities. If it doesn't make you money, then don't do it. I still have yet to meet a person who makes money dusting their desk, organizing their leads, or cleaning up their office files. You MUST spend your limited time in production mode.

We are ALL limited to 24 hours in a given day. The question you have to ask yourself is, how am I spending my valuable time??


3 Tips to Help You Stay on Track

Here are some tips to help you make sure you stay ON TRACK, in PRODUCTION MODE, and stay away from simply being busy.

1. If you are involved in Network Marketing, spend all of your prospecting, presenting, closing and training. Nothing else really matters. 2

. If you need to conduct tasks that keep you "busy" (i.e. writing auto-responder letters, producing training documents for your team, etc.), do it in DOWN TIME. What I mean here is do it when you can't be making phone calls like late at night or very early in the morning.

3. Track yourself and conduct regular self-checks. Log the number of outgoing dials, presentations you made, messages you've left, etc. This will help ensure you are on the right path before it's too late.

Making it in this industry is simple: Proper application of the right activites daily will produce consistent results.Failure is just as simple: Application of the wrong activities daily, and not recognizing that you are doing the wrong things will consistently produce nothing, except frustration and disappointment.This industry works. Network Marketing works. However, YOU have to work (doing the right things) in order for it to work for you.

How to Find a Top Rated Affiliate Progam

How to Find a Top Rated Affiliate Program?

If you're reading this, then it's pretty safe to assume that you are interested in marketing and very interested in making as much money as possible without working too hard. Well, that's what top rated affiliate programs are for because the only way a program can get to the top of the affiliate world is to provide the affiliates with everything they want and then some. Being proactive in meeting the needs of affiliates pay handsomely, which is why top rated affiliate programs can be counted on to offer the terms that make a marketer's heart race with excitement.

What are the features of a top rated affiliate program? For starters, such a program offers high commissions. The people behind it know that their products will sell very well and don't mind giving up a bigger share of the money in order to motivate affiliates and reward their efforts. If you're spending a couple of hours everyday pondering traffic statistics, thinking up ways to improve your website to get top search engine placement and generating a lot of sales then you deserve those high commissions. And if your conversion rate is high enough, you will be making a lot of money in a short time.

Aside from the high commissions you will need quality affiliate support from the associate program in the shape of free website templates to choose from, free content for your website (or websites) written by professional copywriters, tutorials and guides if you're only just beginning and lots of information and advice on the niche market you are going to be operating in. Plus, you get access to advanced affiliate tools for keyword research and traffic tracking. Another very important thing to look out for is the way products are sold. If the managers ask you to buy the products and resell it to customers, then you're walking into a scam.

But you probably know by now that there are no magic buttons to push that can make you a super affiliate in a couple of days. You'll have to work your way to a position of financial security and you have a lot to learn about how to be a good marketer. But joining a top rated affiliate program goes a long way to making your dreams come true as fast as humanly possible because the sad alternative is to do the same amount of work for less money. And that runs contrary to the fact that you deserve to get as much as possible for your efforts.

Low commissions and small percentages of low prices are highly NOT recommended and working for a greedy bunch of managers is an experience that should be avoided. Why waste time and effort when you can start on the right foot by joining a top rated affiliate program? If some people out there are willing to work for low commissions and others can't find anything wrong with investing their own money in a business that doesn't ever pay off, then let them do it. You have other priorities.
