Greetings Everyone , Michael The Traveling Trucker is back with another great question.
What are some of the reasons you consult a Doctor? Things going on outside or inside your body that you can’t explain. You seek out a Professional to help explain what the heck is going on.
There will be recommendations given. You decide whether or not to use that information. Normally we follow the leader (Doctor) because we trust what is being said. They have spent years learning about the body.
Network Marketing is no different. You seek out a leader, who has done and succeeded at what you want to do. You do your research, learn what this person is doing.
Yes, there will be recommendations. There is a learning time frame for which you must learn the basics. Each day you execute a series of tasks until you master them.
Having someone to guide you is one of the most valuable assets. Taking your business serious is your primary goals.
What type of business are you looking for? Health and Wellness, Digital Education, New Mothers, Toddlers, Best Baby Gadgets, Gardening, and the list goes on.
Maybe you want to be a Writer? Whatever you are looking for I know it is out there for the asking.
The hours that you’ll be working at your new Business are important for a healthy work-life balance and to fit around the other important areas of your life.
Stay hungry
There’s no limit to how far you could take your Business.
Never settle
We’re always learning, and you will be too. Keep active in your learning.
Do the right thing
We’re always thinking ahead, but we work firmly in the present – we’re aware of the world around us and the challenges we face . Doing the right thing at the right time is a daily task.
Everything we do in life SHOULD draw us closer to our GOALS and DREAMS.
Do you have a VISION worth pursuing? Without a clear vision your purpose may be obscured. Have you written down your goals, dreams and vision?
Let me tell you you a story.I like Being a full time driving trucker, driving across the country.My time is VERY limited. I have had to make time to pursue my goals, dreams and vision. I have met many interesting people. Many have taught awesome life lessons which I have applied to mine and my families life.
Sharing is a KEY role. How many people have helped you over the years? How many have you helped back?
I have learned VISION keeps you passionate. Keeps you Motivated. Gives you Direction. Most people I know have a 9-5 job. They have a short drive to work, short drive home. They have 4-to 5 hours each day to perform tasks which could make them a good amount of money.
I drive 11 hours most days. I leave on Sunday, drive back on Thursday for a Friday delivery. Then I have 36- 40 hours at home before I drive back out.
Why am I telling you all this, We all have a certain amount of time. Let’s NOT make excuses as to Why we don’t have enough money.
All I can do is advise you to a few things I have learned. I have great mentors who have taught me what I now teach.
Build Your List. Build A tribe Of Followers. Be The Person Who Helps People Solve Their Problems. Have Value For Your People. High Ticket Items Sell The Best. Be Teachable. Find and Work With A Mentor.
I’m a full time trucker. I drive more than 2000 miles per week. I leave on sunday and come back on friday. I get 36 hours at home. In that time, I have laundry, cooking, yard work and some wife time.
Come closer, my best memory is the silly emoji’s I send and receive from my wife. We tell stories and add to them them by all of our Emoji’s. She will send one and I respond with another. It always follows the 1st emoji to the last. It will last us most of the day.
Somewhere in that time frame I put in some internet time. I promote several businesses. This has been a slow process but very gratifying.
So how do I get you to tell your story? What trips your trigger? Who are you and what is your hearts desire?
I have to force myself most days. Time is short and seems to be getting shorter.
Do you have any social media accounts? Do you like to write, read, and talk to others? Do you like to share what you have with others?
What is your favorite memory? Is it family, friends, vacation? Is it your favorite trip somewhere?
You should ALWAYS invest in yourself. You are well worth the effort.
I want to help those that want it. I’m available to talk, mentor and guide anyone.
Sounds simple doesn’t it? Michael The Traveling Trucker has reason to think outside the box. Training is essential to any business, personal or faimly if we are to move forward and not remain in the rut of ho hum life.
Before we learn how it’s important, we need to learn why it’s important. Thinking fast provides a wide variety of benefits.
When people are asked to think fast, they are happier, more creative, energetic, and self-confident. Does that begin to sound like you? That’s right, it is becoming you as we speak.
Faster thinking will also keep your brain mentally sharp.
Do you know that it’s possible to become smarter—at any age? That’s right. Are You READY?
How Do You Think Faster?
The next question is how does one increase speed? That answer is:
Make faster minor decisions. Now eating is important, but deciding between beef, turkey or salad is inconsequential. Deciding quickly what to eat can help you with thinking faster.
Practice Speed
There are things that we do all the time and we’ve gotten really good at — playing music, learning songs, writing, or doing specific stretches. Whatever the case, I encourage you to add another layer of challenge to those skills by speeding up.
Think Smarter: Critical Thinking to Improve Problem-Solving and Decision-Making Skills is the comprehensive guide to training your brain to do more for you.
Thinking is the foundation of everything you do, but we rely largely on automatic thinking to process information, often resulting in misunderstandings and errors.
READ BOOKS AND LOTS OF THEM DAILY
If you are not using your whole brain, you will fall behind.
Trial and error is a fundamental method of problem-solving. It is characterized by repeated, varied attempts which are continued until success, or until the agent stops trying.
The earlier in life a person learns to read and the more readingmaterials they are subjected to, the more cognitive skills they will develop.
For those who have limited reading comprehension skills, reading can help enhance their vocabulary and their development of intellectual functioning.
When we were growing with our 2 girls, teaching, showing and sharing books, we would read out loud. Everyone would take a turn. We would do voices, singing the songs. We would go to the library and let them pick out books. Today our girls love to read as My wife and I do.
We still do the voices and sing the songs, then laugh about it. It is a magicial time. Reading stimulates your brain and keeps it healthy, which is critical for your memory.

HEADLINES: You can have the best content, the best news for doing things, and the best news for making money, but if people don’t open your email or read your blog, you don’t have them. This should be a PRIORITY for your blogs and emails.
Keeping your emails short and sweet is very important when you are email marketing.
You want to make sure you get your point across as quickly as you can without leaving out any important details about the product you are promoting or the message you are trying to get across.
It is very important that you make sure that the marketing experience is as convenient as possible for the customer because this will surely lead to more sales.
Here are a few Headlines that caught my attention:
Learn how to make money online as an affiliate, Claim Your Free Traffic Package Worth 5To 20 Every Day, Get Paid To Log In Every Day!, New System Pays youmultiple timesPer day on autopilot!, $1,000IN MAILBOXCASH ,2k with New system.
Are you starting to let those juices flow?
SOCIAL MEDIA CONSISTENCY:
It’s so important to put content out DAILY on social media! You never know who is watching. As the saying goes” SOMEONE IS ALWAYS WATCHING”. If you are just showing up once a month on Twitter or other social media, people will not remember you or engage with you.
I believe that you need to be in front of people 24/7/365. Are you making videos on Youtube and sharing them? Post. Every. Single Day! No Exception!
Now for the BIG ONE: DRIVE THEM TO A CAPTURE FORM. Your goal is to make sure you are funneling potential customers and leads into your list. You should be adding to your list daily. Communicating with your people helps in the process all the way around.
Here is what I call the 10,000- hour rule. You must stay consistent. It takes 10,000 hours of consistent ‘practice’ to master your chosen niche. Most people won’t even invest 100 hours into their business. You have it beat already. Don’t ever give up.
I will grow my subscriber list by 50 new people. I will add 50% to my monthly income. I will learn 1 new thing per day. I will share my life with people daily.
Have you discovered the life you were meant to live? Greetings from Georgia, Home of Michael The Traveling Trucker.
Let us focus on YOU for a minute. I didn’t like looking inward. I never really liked what I saw. Then one day, God called me out of the darkness to walk in the light.
He has placed some KOOL peeps in my life, and I bet He has done the same for you, RIGHT?
How many outstanding generalities do you know? How many people do you know with unique and distinctive characteristics? I want you to know from the first-YOU ARE A MIRACLE. You’re an original.
Be enthusiastic, It really does make people stand up and take notice. Have you ever been in a room when someone makes their entrance and the room explodes with joy, happiness, and laughter?
People are drawn to these people. Here is a cool saying” You can’t walk backward into the future”. I try to do this one thing everywhere I go, Leave people better than I found them. Give a little every day, not until it hurts, but until it feels good.
I’m a KOOL KAT.
Are you being flexible? There is great strength in tenderness. It’s amazing how a tender sapling survives a hard wind by being flexible and by moving with the wind instead of resisting it.
Say this out loud: I Am flexible, I Am Tender and Strong. Resilient and Grounded. Wow, I needed that myself. Thanks, Michael.
If you treat people as they are, they will remain as they are. If you treat people as though they were what they could be, You’ll help them become what they could be.
BIG TIP: DON’T SPEND YOUR LIFE STANDING AT THE COMPLAINT COUNTER. We all could have plenty to complain about, let’s find things to praise about, laugh about, love about, sing about. Be different, LOOK FOR THE BEST.
Which side are they on?
The sky’s not the limit. No one can put a limit on you without your permission. Don’t set limits on yourself either.
You need help and I offer my helping hand. You say you need more money, time, and freedom. LIFE is not FREE, but very attainable with a little work.
Ask me how by leaving me a comment and I will share my insider secret.

Right here, STOP. Get a pen and some paper. Take 5 minutes and write down your dream. Got it? Ok, now lets break it down so you can see how to make it a reality.
What do you want to accomplish? Where do you see yourself in one, two, ten years? What makes you happy?
These questions will drive you forward to accomplish your dream.
Vision: The Core of Your Life Plan
To learn how to plan your life, be precise as much as possible when creating your vision.
Create a Step-by-Step Plan. Divide your life plan into parts. Plan for an hour, a day, a week, a month, a year.
1st step: Slowly get into a routine. Picture your perfect day. Now write down every step. When you wake up, make your bed, take a shower, fix your lunch. I know this sounds strange, but I will explain it all.
Once you complete your list, break it down to hourly events that you can manage. Look to weekly events, monthly events, and yearly events.
This is easy, buy a planner notebook. Keep your planner with you at all times. Look at it often and stay focused.
Take one step at a time. Yet, do not let routine absorb you. Every step you take has to bring you closer to your dream.
Work with Deadlines. Even if you think you’re organized enough, set them. They help you stay precise and focused. Reward yourself when you meet your deadlines. It doesn’t have to be big. Make it personal and fun for one.
HAVE RULES: Before you make a decision that could influence how you plan your life, take a break and think it through for at least 20 seconds.
What are the consequences of this decision? Will it help you to become closer to your dream? How will it affect your lifestyle? Each of these should be thought out carefully. You need the proper time to properly make the correct decision.
Get Out of The Rut. So how do you know when you’re in a rut?
Life has its ups and downs for all of us. We look around and realize that we’ve found ourselves stuck in the RUT. When you don’t know you are in a rut, it’s very difficult to get out. Once you see the rut, prepare the way to move out of the rut.
BIGGEST RED FLAG: You spend most of it daydreaming of being somewhere else. If the only thing you have any anticipation for is getting into bed at the end of every day, then you’re definitely in a rut and need to start finding enjoyment in the little things in life, appreciating all of the things that come in between waking up and going back to bed again.
Accessibility: Keep your written day or week plan at your fingertips (it could be the app on your smartphone).
When you have some free time, spend it on accomplishing some points from your list.
Boundaries: If you want your plan to be fulfilled, learn to say “no.” Stop. Take a deep breath, and make a decision that won’t ruin your plans. Learn to prioritize and stand your grounds.
Tracking: To get the motivation to move further, track your progress. Noting the results of your everyday work, you’ll realize that even 20 minutes a day make a difference, and it’s not that hard.
Now it’s your turn to PLAN out your life. Go ahead and do it with GUSTO. Remember to have fun all along the way. It’s your life, make it BOLD and BEAUTIFUL.
Here is your chance to see what I do. Click Here. I would love to work along side you. Helping you see your dreams come to LIFE. Look me up on Facebook. Michael Lipsey.
I know from experience that getting on the phone can be scary, uncomfortable and make you draw a blank when talking to leads and prospects about your business.
Let me say from the get go, “PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT”. Start where you are and grow each day. Go over and over the scripts provided or make up your own following the guidelines from our leaders.
I recommend a one on one with ROB GEHRING. He is our closer at GLN. Book a meeting and discuss the topic. Rob is a valuable resource that most people don’t utilize or know is available for our use.
Other great resources are Janet Legere and Jared Meyers. Janet does our weekly webinar on Wednesday at 12:00 noon EST for members only.
Jared is the owner of GLN. Who better to ask about talking to people.
In the end, people can’t see you so RELAX. You should look like this,
Check out the script directly from my back office: This is just a SAMPLE.
-Hi is this (Your Prospects Name Here)? -When they say yes it is, you respond with this –This is (Your Name Here) and you recently filled out a form about making money from home. Do you have a few moments to talk? -Pause and continue based on their response -I’m following up to see if you have any questions. -Did you watch the on demand webinar after you filled out the form? -If they say no, respond with this — Are you looking for a way to make money from home? -If they say yes, ask them this — Do you have a few moments right now to watch the on demand webinar? -If they say yes, respond with this — I will send you the link via email, what is a good email address? -When they give you their email, respond with this – Ok, one moment here it comes. -Pause to send the email which you have ready to send before you call! -Once you send them the email, verify that they received it -Once they say they have received it, tell them you can wait while they watch the video or you can call them back. Make sure you set a time to call them back and have them commit to that time.
In reality, a script is just a guide for useful things to ask and say. You will be lead by the person on the other end of the phone.
Have a smile on your face. Believe it or not people can hear your smile by your voice. SMILE SMILE SMILE.
Don’t let people control the conversation by getting off topic. STAY FOCUSED.
Keep your conversation on track, ask questions to determine if this is a “Hot or Not” prospect. keep everything simple, slow, and let it flow naturally. It’s ok to be nervous. The people on the other end are more nervous than you.
More questions you can ask your leads: -Do you have any experience with online programs like this one? -Do you have a budget for an online business? A monthly advertising budget?
The answer to these two questions will tell you volumes about your lead and whether or not you want to continue asking questions.
