Do you have a mentor?
So you started a business, and your excited.
You’ve got a good business, great compensation plan, a long list of leads, and you know your why.
So the basics are all in line. You’re on fire to learn and you actually believe in your product- and the tax breaks afforded Americas small business owners are pretty nifty too (more on those later).
So we got through the amazing list and I have a small question-
Do you have a mentor?
If so congratulations. If not have you considered it?
A mentor is an untapped resource for many people. And one many of us cannot afford to miss out on.
Entrepreneurs, especially those that are still young have a tendency to seek business advice from their friends. And while this may be comforting and reaffirming you daily- its the last thing that is needed. See, a friend is always going to say what you want to here. In business a mentor is a better bet- they will tell you what you NEED to hear. That one advantage is tremendous. As the mentor isn’t close to you or part of your direct circle they are less likely to hold back. You may dislike the answers you get, heck you may hate some- but they will work.
So I bet your asking- well fine. You’re right buddy- but who do I get as a mentor? What would work? Better yet who?
A mentor doesn’t have to be from your line of work or business niche. They could be a realtor to your silver business. A mentor in your chosen niche is a great thing but not always the mentor you need. Any mentor that will put in the time is worth it. Most of the possible mentors you will seek out will be business people and odds are they will be entrepreneurs. Better yet, they SHOULD be Entrepreneurs. They may be professional entrepreneurial advisors or just the local rich guy who fought to the top. The mentor can fill in the gaps and point you in the direction you need and helps you see what you might be missing. We all miss things, hey we are human. And a seasoned vet that can get you to see these is like a gold mine in your backyard.
A few more key points:
-Make sure your mentor is literally successful. Not the guy who talks circles around people and sounds real smooth.
– Be sure that their personality matches yours. You want to be able to pick up on how they get it done and if your way too different, it won’t work.
-Make sure they have the skill set too match as well. If they don’t have the skills you need or a way to refine the ones you have its likely you’re wasting their time and yours.
-To find the mentor you Need, fan out. Ask your friends and coworkers for advice. Attend your businesses get together’s and industry events. There’s a great chance the mentor you need is right in front of you and you.

Do you realize that your future may be behind you?
Your favorite friends might be your biggest roadblocks?
And your future is in your hands?
Simple right?
WRONG.
A lot of times we say the system is against me, I can’t prosper, I’m not rich….
Bull poppy I say. What you want you will get. Want wealth- agree to it.
Want a job, agree to it.
You get what you set your eyes on.
So, you say- ‘tony, I’m in agreement with wealth, with riches- great. What have you done?
Have you built your mind set?
Written out your ideas?
Created a dream board?
If not start over.
Get your prospects by being genuine.
Your best prospect is the guy 3 steps behind you looking for help. Teach, aide, and you will win.
Friends say tony is eh, walk away from them. Get with winners and you will win.
Lastly, winning is you, is within you is the difference…
QUESTION
Are you looking for a quick sale or a consistent customer?
Are you selling one unit and thirsting for the commission, or are you the smooth shark at the dealership? The guy who has a customer buy or lease a new car every two years.
Now that sounds odd but let’s be frank people- we all want to help others—and MAKE MONEY.
Don’t feel guilty. You deserve the best and if you work for it you will get it. But there are a few ways to skin the proverbial cat.
I’m going to skip the spiel and tell you what actually puts money in my pocket.
-CREATING VALUE.
-CONSISTENCY.
That’s it.
Your two step plan.
People will buy when they trust you. Be a worm and get an occasion sale. Give them value for their dollar and they will come back. And come back not only willingly but looking for more and more and….
So for step 1- CREATING VALUE.
This is key. people don’t buy Honda’s because of that snazzy paint. Its the VALUE. Honda has branded itself as synonymous with Value. They resell higher, last longer, and are low to zero emission. All key selling points for consumers. People see value when they see Honda, what do they see in you?
People want success, and peace of mind. If you teach them a path to both you are golden. How you ask? Simple. Teach them little tricks that save time or money. Show them simple ways to build site traffic. Share your story. Any and all of these can be used to build a rapport and a strong, vibrant team.
When you have something that is tangibly valuable- people will flock to you as customers, clients, friends and partners- so aim big people.
Lastly- CONSISTENCY is Key.
People will follow your lead. You say your system works, your team is the best, blah, blah, blah……
Prove it. They will check you out. They will want to see if you follow through no what you say and what you do.
Do you make the calls everyday?
Do you meet 5 new contacts daily?
Do you blog daily?
Do you smile and see opportunity everywhere?
They will check you out just like a kid does.
So the bottom line is be CONSISTENT.
Post an article everyday.
Post a video log that shows step by step how to get ahead weekly.
Make 3 new contacts and exchange contact info with them. DAILY.
Call your downline DAILY.
Call your upline DAILY.
Check your stats DAILY.
Create VALUE DAILY.
When this is done, results will happen and will compound over time.
As you are consistent you not only build your team and or biz, but you LEAD by example and set a standard that is PROFITABLE and more importantly RESPECTABLE.
What you do daily will dictate your success level.

Proof that MLSP and Consistency work!
My first commission check from My Lead System Pro.
By Consistently following through on a few key lessons and ONE Strategy, I’m now seeing gains.
Remember in life a lot things are very simple. Consistency and follow thru will take you further you can imagine.
So find one strategy or one business and stick with it. Do the steps as they are required, as often as they are required- Consistent.
Then check your results as they trickle or flood in and follow through with any and every nibble you get. Do not, I repeat DO NOT, only chase your definite yes’. A 6, 7, or even 8 figure earner could be right under your nose.

What is a sales funnel?
Simply put: A sales funnel is a step by step process to turn cold leads into your warm market.
A sales funnel is a simple internet tool ( usually) that converts ppl from casual web surfers to leads. And we all know the name of the game in any business is growth. And Growth is partners, affiliates, customers and so forth.
A good sales funnel will lead to your blog using: Videos, article marketing etc- to drive traffic down to your lead capture page.
These items may all be incorporated into your blog or, or- into your one page sales funnel.
Why do you want them to get there? To add them to your email/contact list. You don’t just want them to buy one product or engage in one post or one affiliate opp. No. You want a lasting relationship and a list that grows exponentially.
A good sales funnel-
Gets their info into an auto responder- and now u build a relationship on auto-pilot and not being there all day on the phone or in the home. You can build multiple relationships on auto-pilot and still be authentic. Give them a piece of you and keep their interest.
Create interactions.
You have to get them in the game. Make them want your input, crave your responses to your images, videos, and so forth.
Send them to your various sites.
Get people to see your blogs, twitters, instagrams, and so on and so on. This will further interaction and foster greater connections.
After all that introduce them to your main venture.- YOU ALWAYS BUILD BEFORE YOU SELL. Always lead with relationships and value. Create value. Be a friend. Teach them. Give away what others sell. Teach them and even if they don’t opt in now they will remember and your legacy will grow.
Finally:
Work with your prospect until u get a YES or NO answer.
That’s it for tonight.
Remember value and consistency lead even though they follow the sales funnel.
