"Take any hundred people at the start of their working careers and follow them for 40 years until they reach retirement age, and here's what you'll find, according to the Social Security Administration: Only 1 will be wealthy; 4 will be financially secure; 5 will continue working, not because they want to but because they have to; 36 will be dead; and 54 will be dead broke - dependent on their meager Social Security checks, relatives, friends, even charity for a minimum standard of living. That's 5% successful, 95% unsuccessful." Learn more about some of the best home based business ideas on my website

Phone Script

Phone Script Initial Call

My first rule is to not use a script at all. I think they make you sound corny canned and un natural. We are real people and we are looking for a real connection. Most people are not going to buy something from a robot they are going to buy from a human beginning that they can connect with. So when I am talking to people I am not afraid to speak from the heart and be my self. I do however always ask a set of qualifying questions to determine if the person I’m talking to is a good fit or not. Here are the questions and “script” that I ask during the first conversation.

Hello Prospect, This is your name getting back to you from your location with the coastal synergy group. You had recently responded to some internet advertising about making money from home is that still the case?

1) How Long have you been looking to work from home?

2) What are you currently doing for a living?

3) How do you like it?

4) How much are you currently making monthly

5) Are you married? If so is your spouse going to be involved in the decision making process?

6) Do you have any kids? How old?

7) WHY are you looking to work from home?

8) What kind of income are you looking to make?

9) Have you ever worked at home before, owned your own business or been in sales?

10) If not are you willing to learn?

11) If you were able to make _______ (use there number this is to paint a picture) a month what would you do differently with your time or money?

Great you sound like exactly the kind of person that im looking to work with. Do you have something to write with? Write down this website. www.yourwebsite.com. That is going to show you exactly how you are going to be able to earn __________ (their Number) and ____________ (their why). After you get through that info write down an question that you have and I know you are going to have some for me and call me back at ____________ (your phone number).

GO WITH THE FLOW. Don’t be a afraid to get off the topic and go where the conversation takes you. Find a common ground so that you can make a connection. Always remember to get back to the questions at some point. Keep all conversations to about 7 mins. We want people to see how easy this really is and if they think they are going to have to spend 20 mins to a hour with everyone forget it.

Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? Just turn off the TV

A Friend of mine just sent me this article I really liked it thought I should share!

Posted Jul 17th 2007 6:10PM by Kevin Kersten

I just saw a great article on TheStreet.com on the cost of watching TV. It estimates the cost for the average person of watching TV, over 45 years, is $3.7 million dollars. Now that sounds like a lot, but let me expound on how they got there. First take the $100/month cable bills and invest that into a brokerage account. That $1,200 a year compounded at 8% is a cool quarter of a million alone. Then there are TVs, electricity, movie rental and pay-per-view and not to mention junk -- I mean products -- you buy because you saw them on the Home Shopping Network.

One fact cited -- which really surprised me -- was that for each hour per week of TV watched you spend an additional $200 per year on stuff. According to my calculation that is $3.84 an hour of junk per hour bought because I saw it on TV. As I sit here wearing Reebok shoes and sipping my cool, refreshing Mountain Dew, I think that just can't be right. I do not watch HSN or QVC; but something tells me all those billion-dollar companies only buy advertising for one reason ... it works!

So this brings up the $64,000 question. Who Wants To Be a Millionaire? That would require turning off the TV; getting started on those home improvements, getting a part-time job, or starting that home-based business. Time is money and just what is your TV-watching time worth? If you are still watching "Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader," you may not be.

It would be terrible if we didn't know what Rosie O'Donnell said about Donald's Trump's hair. Maybe mom was right ....My mind will rot if I watch enough of the idiot-box.

America is the land of Freedom and Liberty and for all the good it may do; I don't think we should outlaw TV's quite yet. If you want to let your mind rot, go right on and do it. But please don't tell the paternalistic mayors of San Francisco or New York who want to protect me from the evils of bottled water or trans-fatty French Fries.

I admit I like my remote control and when it comes to financial bets, I hate to buck the system. If you can't beat them ...join them. So if you have canceled that cable bill and are investing that money how about sticking it in some entertainment companies betting your friends aren't going to have that kind of self discipline. You have the big four networks CBS (NYSE: CBS), NBC is owned by General Electric (NYSE: GE), ABC is owned by Disney (NYSE: DIS) and News Corp (NYSE: NWS) owns Fox. There is Viacom (NYSE: VIA) and the Home Shopping Network owned by IAC/InterActiveCorp (NASDAQ: IACI). If you need more ideas flip on the TV for a moment and some company will announce it's product for you to invest in. Learn more about some of the best home based business ideas on my website
