Continuing on our training tips, to have a lucrative home business training is key.  It must be complete and typically the best way to do that is to be multifaceted.  Here are some examples of what I mean.  You as a leader must be able to give specific steps to succeed that you do that work to each and every brand new person you work with, but you can’t stop there.  Everyone is different and every one learns differently and at their own pace.

Remember when you first started working from home or anything new for that matter.  Did someone ever share a tip or technique and you did not quite get it the first time?  Or you forgot it until someone said it later at a different time and you realized it?  Every single skill we learn in life from, riding a bike to driving or even our careers we all learned it differently and at different speeds.  So your training approach can’t be a simple training “book or audio” or a monthly call or even a Saturday training or even an annual seminar, it has to strategically be every thing combined.  Next I’ll share with you an example of our training and you’ll see why it works for so many people.

There are several layers of our training in DFI and with just one layer a person can get the info to succeed but people learn differently at different speeds.

1.  Automated Training:  When a new associate owns a DFI Live marketing system starting with the Boot camp and Quick Start and even detailed Quick Start Training in an automated form they have all the answers they need to be successful.  They can get these answers when they need them day or night.

2.  One on One Director Support:  With our company you are assigned one of our Directors as a mentor to support you one on one.  Someone who is being successful and actively building a lucrative home business.  They have all the knowledge you would need to do what they do except they also have that human touch.  No Director would be in the position they are in if they were not actively helping people to succeed.

3.  Core Training Calls:  Once again we need that human touch not just a book, manual or system.  Our core training calls consist of a simple to follow format to help a person who is serious no matter what step of the business they are in.  All of the calls are hosted by successful 6 figure income earners who are helping others become successful, passing on their knowledge.  All calls are LIVE and interactive so you can ask someone else how they build a lucrative income or make money from home.

Monday Evening, is the New Associate Training Calls were a successful Director is talking about topics specifically to do with a brand new person just getting started in their business and what they need to focus on first to have success.

Tuesday Evening, Learn how to get clients with our advertising companies and when they are calling you learn what to say to them.  Here new people and 6 Figure Income Earners role play what they say and how they say it.  If you can’t get clients and you don’t know what to say to them how could you possibly have success?

Thursday Evening, 6 Figure Income call is typically a call with more advanced training topics.  Once you have the basics down but you want to become more efficient or make more money quicker this is were you would plug into. 

Saturday Morning, On The Job Training is a live training call were successful directors actually are live on the phone calling clients and letting others listen in.  Toward the end of the call they open it up for questions about what they say or how they say it.  The even share which one of our advertising firms they are working with to get our clients.  We don’t have to do our own marketing.

There is definitely something to be said about having other people help train your new associate.  It saves you time and a person who may not be exactly like you can learn from someone else they may relate too.  Sometimes a stranger can say something much more impactful than you can because of your one on one connection.  Think about your kids has someone ever said something to them and your kids acted like it was the best advice they have ever gotten?  You may have been saying it all along but you were to close.  Our Core training calls and Dani Johnson help with that type of training to create 6 Figure or Lucrative successful home businesses.

4. Dani Johnson First Steps to Success:  Dani Johnson who went from homeless to millionaire in two years working from home does home business specific training events sharing how she created those kind of results.  You may have seen her on TV recently. Her training events called First Steps to Success has been the reason I’ve personally seen so many people create a 6 Figure Income in DFI.  It’s a live training event that you can travel too and meet some of the Directors you hear on our calls face to face.  But being immersed in that type of an environment which is not rah rah motivational but specific techniques and strategies are shared that you can apply, leads to incredible skill development and a lucrative income.

In retrospect a single form of training that can provide you with all the answers you need is good.  But having a multifaceted approach to match each person’s time line as they develop professionally that gives them different environments to learn from will lead to much greater success.  All you have to do is look at the success and growth that DFI has experienced in the home business industry.

DFI as an organization grew 38.9% during the month of Feb. 2010.  The largest growth in the 15 year history of Coastal Travel and quite likely the largest growth of any company in the home business industry.  Apparently the training works!  Stay tuned for more results!

Thanks for visiting let me give you a tip that helped me make 19,410 dollars in one day.

I am about to give you a little known fact about the home based business industry! This is planting time! This is one of the best times of the year to be working. This is for several reasons, first many amateurish homebased business owners are slacking off due to the pending holiday season.

Second, people are still looking to work from home and still requesting information everyday. 30,000 people will start a homebased business this week! Right now there is less competition for those people, since the amteurs are slacking off. This time of year alot of people will look at a home business but may not get started just yet. This is of course due to the many distractions going on right now with Thanksgiving and Christmas coming up.

However, these same people are still looking to work from home and if they don’t get started right away many will come back in Jan. to get started. The secret to having a massive 1st quarter of next year is to be working right now! It’s like getting a head start on next year.

It’s creating a wave of momentum and then having that wave come crashing down on you the first part of next year. Make sure you are not one of those slacking off right now, now is the time to be planting. Your harvest will come if you are planting now. If you have a home based business then go work it hard! If not then go here www.moretimegreatmoney.com

Happy Planting,

When you own a Home Business cash flow is the key to keeping a successful business successful. It’s the same with any business brick and mortar or home business. If you don’t believe me just look at our economy and the 100′s of billions of dollars our government has thrown out to improve cash flow.

Moving forward we have to agree on one principle. It takes money to make money right? Let’s face it, is it “FREE” to start any business? Was it “FREE” to advertise? There are smart ways of doing business and some are less expensive ways. But at the end of the day it takes money or time and your time should have a value on it as well so that means money. The hardest thing anyone has to learn in a home business is to start making money.

What kills most people is when their cash flow does not flow properly. Here’s what I mean. Some how when we first start working from home we forget that the money we make needs to be applied to business at all. Let’s face it you have to always re-invest money monthly if you are going to develop and grow your business. Plus, you gotta pay taxes we can’t avoid that one legally.

Most people do fine in business once they start making money until there is a financial shift. At that point most people go out of business. Here is what I mean, let’s assume you are making 10,000 dollars a month and you are spending 1,000 a month in business development maybe it’s advertising? 10% overhead is dang good and you probably only have that in a home business vs a traditional business. You are left over with 9,000 a month and maybe you are living off of that. What happens if your company changes the compensation structure or you get sick or have an emergency in your family and you can’t work one month? If you don’t make the 10,000 dollars you don’t have the 1,000 to keep things going with. What if you owe taxes and did not have enough put back. I had one friend who made so much money in one year in Coastal she owed $52,000 and had been paying off debt and was not expecting that bill.

Your home business must always have liquidity, heck for that matter every business needs it. Look at our current banking system. IF you lose your cash flow and are not expecting it then you will be in a jam and could be forced to walk away from all the benefits of being your own boss and in charge of your own schedule. So how do you avoid it? Because change will come and challenge will always happen?

Here is a solution that Jackie O’Quinn gave me a long time ago and it works no matter what type of business you are in. First take all of your profit after business expenses for the month and divided it by 3. Apply those funds in the following way.

1/3-enhanced lifestyle, paying of debt, create financial flexibility, build security blanket, go on vacation or what ever you wish.

1/3-put back for taxes, will your taxes be this high? You will not know until the end of the year but you have the money put back regardless. If you pay your taxes and you have money left over you can then spend it freely. It basically becomes tax free income because it was designated to be spent on taxes but taxes are paid.

1/3-reserve for future business expenses. This is an account that should grow continually for quite some time. As long as this account grows then you will always be in business. Does it eventually max out? Maybe, but I would not max it out until at least a year’s worth of business expenses are put back and here’s why. Your current expenses may change? You may work part time and be forced to go full time then would your advertising go up or down if you worked more? In business as you grow opportunity presents itself, you always want enough cash on hand to develop any opportunity as well as to plan for the unexpected.

Owning a home business is absolutely incredible! It’s the best thing you could ever do. My kids don’t understand why other dad’s have to leave home to work. They are blessed! Together we can go farther. If you have any financial tips please share them with us and leave a comment.

When anyone starts a new business working from home being successful requires two things. The right tools and a simple process to follow. As you are looking for the right way to succeed from home. Even though we may never work together, let me share with you a couple of things that has created success for us.

1. Simple process – This starts with a marketing system and I’ll go into more detail on that next time around. Our team created over 72,000 dollars in profit for the month of September. It starts with a simple process where no selling is done by a person. It has to be done through exposure. First usually a website and then often times for us it’s a Live interactive conference call where questions are answered.

2. The Presentation- I’ll go into more detail on the website as I mentioned later. But first you have to fully understand that the last exposure has to answer most of their important questions and it has to be understandable and believable. No details hidden and be completely transparent. Below is an example of what I’m talking about. Shawn from CA, hosted one of our live calls and it’s recorded for you to learn from below. Take really good notes using this same system is not only how we created a 6 Figure Income but Shawn also made 50,000 dollars in 100 days. As well as how our team made 72,000 dollars in profit in September not counting Shawn or myself.

We may never work together but working from home can be extremely profitable if you have a system that allows for no one to be required to learn to “sell”. Pay close attention to the details that are shared about our company and product on this call to learn how to model it for your business. If you succeed in the home business industry is good news for all of us involved!

Good Luck,

But it is certainly frustrating, thankfully I don’t have to worry about losing my job or paying my bills. But now that I’m visiting family in NC I’ve realized something. (Might as well do something good versus stay in some hotel.) How is it that people survive with out Internet these days? I didn’t even know it was possible.

I don’t get a good cell signal here in some places but thank the good Lord for what I do get. I’m looking forward to meeting Ellen a new member of DFI that is joining at the Platinum level thanks to Jill Albanys. So yes, I’m still working just limited greatly due to lack o Internet. What I know about Ellen so far is she has 2 small boys and she has drive and determination. Heck I haven’t even met her yet and I’m stoked out of my mind for her. Often times I wander will this feeling ever get old. That excited enthusiastic feeling you feel every time you see someone who joins the team and they have that natural drive.

You just know so many things that we’ve gained through this business is about to be theirs. As long as they follow the training and act. What we do in Coastal is so dang simple. Having a home business with DFI is one of the most amazing things that has ever happened to our family. Think about it. How many parents have the choice to be at home with their toddlers? How many parents face a natural disaster and can have a certain level of peace because we are not stressed about a job? How many parents are able to have a good income and think about using income and time to create memories with each other and their kids? Home many husbands and wives actually get the time to love and cherish one another?

Thank you God and Thank you DFI for the opportunity to own my own home business and so much more.

To Your Success,
Stacy O’Quinn
