In this post we are going over the 3 parts of a Successful Online Marketing business.

It’s important not to overcomplicate things and to keep it as simple as possible. What does it take to succeed?

One of the goals of you is to be accountable for others… I can set out a path but you pick it up and do it on their own…

We are talking about 3 parts here

Long Term Vision
Short Term Vision
Consistent Daily Action

Let’s Jump into this

—Long Term Vision—


SO now you need to have long term vision

You got to attach an emotion to your vision of where you want to go and where you want to be 5, 10, 20 years for now?

Everyone is focused on the now and a microwave society… technology is advanced it helps us do things quicker then before and we start to think everything is like that.

There is a a process plant the seed, cultivate the seed, harvest the seed. many people are going straight from plant to harvest.

You got to cultivate long term vision, who do you want to impact?

Part of reaching that goal is learning to impact other people…

Why are people so passionate about certain causes and different movements. That is whats going to help you and pull you through to the finish line…

Ray Higdon said “Your Pain pushes you and your vision pulls you”

—Short Term Vision—


Most people this is not a problem for people.

Short term vision is something you need just as much as long term and they work hand and hand.

One of the things a mentor of me did was tell me to build my business in 90 day increments which will lead you to your destination.

So you got four 90 day periods throughout the year

and you write down what you want in 90 days and see your progress and what did you do…

then you evaluate to where you are after 90 days and then you can set the goals and agenda for the second 90 days… then you can be

If there is one thing that you need to do consistently is being consistent. This is the biggest challenge in our lives and business…

The dog’s got to go to the vet, parent teacher conferences, go paint the shed… there are a lot of distractions in our lives.

If you are going to 90 days solid and you are going day in and day out and you are not seeing a little fruit on the tree then it’s time to invest in the coach…

Why because action is not the problem it’s just a couple of small tweaks or minor corse adjustments to your business.


—Consistent Daily Action—


If you are not doing daily consistent action you have no right to claim results

I recommend two books the slight edge by Jeff Olsen… and the compound effect by Daren Hardy you can get it on amazon especially for our niche industry…

This is one of those books that will change your life…

Success and failure are identical in what it takes to succeed and failure…

To succeed to get to the goal you take small actions over time and everyday all the little bits add up to a lot and that is called the compound effect.

It’s easy to do but its easier not to do… In regards to health If you eat a big mac coke and fires one day it wont kill you but you do that every day for 30 years and you are going to have some serious health issues…

Resource Guide



On my journey It's really a mind shift when you start to think differently then the rest of everyone else. I say that because as of this moment I am thinking different then everyone around me. Everyone is in this rat race of trying to just make it Monday - Friday and living for the weekend. 

I am working toward and adjusting my mind to comprehend a different perspective and I am moving toward separating myself from the rest of everyone

The only way you can go it up and make this upcoming year a great year.. You might be looking back and thinking that this year sucks... 

I want to give you these tips that can really help and hopefully make a difference in your life 


Here are some 


Tips for success, for the New Year 


1. Visualize your success -   You have got to see yourself of where you are going not where you are at. Our minds trick us to simply focus on the now... Yea now SUCKS... but if you dwell on that you are sabotaging your ( future ) success 

Here is a question " What are you going to do with that money once you make it?" I mean you better be specific here with the answer ( exactly ) ? 

We live in the microwave society and we think that this is going to happen now. Nothing is built overnight it takes one brick at a time... 


2. Focus on one task at a time - Want to recommend a book here "The Slight Edge" by Jeff Olsen. Don't get lost at looking at the big picture for too long.. take time and eat the task in small parts. Success is built at one thing at a time... Its just as easy to say no as it is to say yes... 

Lay one brick today and keep laying it 

3. Get Active - I see people all the time that don't take action... and a week later they complain they are not getting help but they are not doing what they need to be doing... ( work their business )
They are focused on everything else but their business..


Focus on getting things accomplished and then watch t.v after you have completed your task FIRST... 
You should be focused on income producing activities. Don't sit on the information that you have been given... 

4 Don't be afraid to say No - Its a powerful word I had to learn this because I want to help out so much and be their for others. I get along with everyone I am not looking for approval but I am easy to hang out with. 

Hey you want to go out this weekend " No " I got something big I am working toward a goal. I can normally find a way to do both 


5. Value YOUR time - You'r time is worth a heck of a lot more then you think. If you don't value your time people wont either. I want to be real here some of you are overstaying your welcome with your sponsor in your business.

Value the time from the people you seek help from. The best way that you can learn this is to value the time of others... by default you will value yours. You can make more money but you can never get back the time you spend. 


6. When you need help ask for it - There is no shame in that ! I am part of a community that where I can post a question in the Facebook group and within a good couple of hours can get multiple answers. 

Don't sit there and ask for help unless you have done some of the legwork yourself. What do I mean? Have you looked on YouTube or Google FIRST ? I am teaching people self reliance.

Type it in a couple of different ways and you will be amazed of what you will find... 

7. Be a good listener - When you are around leaders and in general listen to people when they speak. Don't get offended ... really... sometimes what you need to hear is not sugar coated. Time is of the essence and so just take the good and get rid of the bad. 

8. No matter where you are in your journey BE THANKFUL - Be greatful for what you are going through and where you are at in life is so important. If you are not happy right now with no money do you really think you are going to be when you have it? 

Money is a magnifying glass to who you are... Be greatful where you are but have a internal bug that pushes you forward to better and better goals...

Hope these tips have helped you in your journey...Kick but and get to work

If you want to build a large business then you want to start to think like a big business and get better at recruiting...

This post is going to give you some great ideas when it comes to getting a endless supply of leads. with a couple of online lead generation tips.




The fact is the person with less leads and sharp skills will be better then someone that gets a ton and sucks at prospecting.

Understand what a lead is - a person looking for __________( you fill in the blank of what your prospect / customer wants )  something... understand that you can continue to get leads on demand... the majority today will fall on passive marketing. You are doing something and you hope something will respond to you...

Active Prospecting...is going out there and connect with people you don't know...

What is difficult is the education between active prospecting vs active prospective spend some time doing both...

Lets talk about tweaking your content that you create... I want to give you four good tweaks that you can take and use right now.

Here is 4 super great tips!

1. Only Rock Starts do it... consistently referencing your opt-in offer especially if its congruent with your main offer.

2. Persuasion shell - You need to tell them what to do, always " Hey please share and comment "
The biggest comment to get is your first one don't be afraid to form a blog mini tribe... that is where you get a group of bloggers that leave posts on every one else's blogs.

3. A lot of people in blogging do training's for teams and webinar's - record, record, record, record... If you are not recording then its all for not... If you are not training then do interviews and go get some interviews... use it as a giveaway use it in future products...

Use something like the following as an idea:
"Hey Free Download if you like the audio comment below share it on your FB send a email to my assistant." you can do that with training's and with your interviews

4. Always Think like a student and a marketer... at the same time

Example go to an event shoot a video look at your notes whats the difference its purposeful listening what can you go teach?

When I go to different events I get snippets (future content )... Don't just be a student...

MAJOR TIP :If you want to BOOST YOUR LEADS is look at your giveaway... there are so many crappy ones... people are getting overwhelmed and getting too emails... So you have to overcome that... you have got to create something besides check out my newsletter or subscribe to my updates... does not work anymore.. be specific give away great value and speak to your audience.

If you do not know what you leads want? How can you satisfy their needs? Do you survey people?
Ask questions to your list :  Do you struggle with ? Closing, Leads whatever...

 That is how you build your business... Survey Monkey... send a survey out to your list now you know what they want to know about...

You can ask what is your biggest frustration? what is your biggest hang up?

Remember .
Your target is the other 90% percent out there that don't know any of the stuff you might know...
Now your target is the other marketers out there... the majority if you are in the Home Biz Niche.

Social Media when it comes to posting a post without a link generates more curiosity
do the opposite of what everyone else is doing

Be different try not to be the same like everyone else... mix it up, things get old fast. Be careful with telling off people on social media and don't be confrontational. You don't want to offend but if you have a strong opinion about something stand your ground...  don't ever bash people or companies. But you can bash behavior.Don't be so vanilla have a opinion.

When You are doing a blog or video when it comes to keyword  research some people should use the Google keyword tool... people are not doing the keyword the research to see if it is a valid one...at least do the research to see if its getting views.

I hope you got some great tips while I was giving some online lead generation tips. It's possible you might know all of these already but if you found value in this post then I would appreciate that you comment below and or give my fan page a like... thanks
