Seniors Getting Connected

More and more seniors are catching the "computer bug" and taking the plunge to go online. Active baby boomers have evolved to become active seniors looking to get out and explore the world around them. Computers in general, have opened many doors to entertainment and excitement for seniors. No longer resigned to playing of shuffleboard or canasta with their friends for entertainment. Computers and the Internet allow anyone to play games and communicate with old friends and make new friends, all over the world.

A Little Blogging Lesson

Blogging is an important part of earning an online income. Google Blogger, and WordPress are the most popular blogging platforms. Both are excellent for blogging, if you set it up for success. New blogs or existing blogs, there are some things that you shouldn't forget to include!

Don't rely on another marketers blog! While it is a good thing to comment and participate on other blogs, that should not be the only way you blog. Set up your own blog, with your own ideas and topic. If you only participate, you will make others money, but not yourself.

Don't be all over the place. Focus, focus, focus! Focus on one topic. Find your niche and stick to it. If you happen to find another interesting topic, simply start another blog. What will bring you income and traffic is focus.

Do you know your sponsor?

When you join F5M-MC, your sponsor, or another team member will help YOU!

First, let me tell you what we are not!

We will not play the MLM game of "fill our pockets first" and we have no intention of ever starting the MLM game.

We will continue to offer our service to help those that need help.

We started our membership training site because we are sick and tired of seeing people pay their hard earned cash for a program and not make that money back! We cannot afford to waste our money, and chances are, neither can you. If you are going to pay for a program, then you should learn how the program works! Take the time to learn or you will not earn!

We are here to help you and your downline learn to be effective promoters and teachers. In turn, you will build a profitable business. We know that if training and help is offered, your downline will lead their downline, and so on down the line.

What if EVERYONE in your downline sponsored 6 members, and trained those 6 to get 6? What if this continued? The only way this will work, is if you learn what you are doing!

Tip: Stop signing up for program after program without first learning how one program works. Try not signing up for another program until you have learned to work one.

What to do when there is no one to work for?...Work for YOU!!

I would like to personally thank all members of The Grand Retirement Plan! You have taken an important step to start earning a good paycheck!

Everyone has to find their own way to earn a living working online. There is a lot to learn. It can take the average person a few years to learn what to do to make everything work and to build an online reputation. There are millions of people floundering around desperately trying to earn a living to replace the job they had for 30 years or more. As more fall off of unemployment eligibility, more are going to flood the internet with no clue what to do. I tell my husband every day, “if this internet marketing was easy, everyone would be doing it!” It all takes time and persistence. Most of all, the right products to promote and earn from.

We will teach you what you need to do to advertise and earn a paycheck from your efforts. There are so many ways to advertise. Once you learn how to promote and advertise, you will see positive results. Rest assured the programs and products we endorse on The Grand Retirement Plan membership site are honest, long standing programs. We have all had some success with everything on our site!

Again, welcome and thank you so much for joining us. We are here to insure your success! If you have any questions, or just want to chat, email, katrinaoakley@gmail.com, Skype, kats_tool_box, or call, 2603502366. I will be happy to get to know you and help you get your online education.

Know the Stages of Team Development

Team building involves several stages and processes. A new team will encounter several developmental stages. Every stage has its challenges. Understanding these processes before starting a team, is helpful for leaders to guide the team to their goal.

The first stage of team building is development. As the team is chosen and gathered for the first time, the members are getting to know each other. During the first stage the leaders will discover individual talents the members bring to the team and how best to use them. The leaders will coach members to utilize individual skills. The team will be learning about each other and how to work together. The team leadership should guide the team to unite.

With good leadership, in the next stage of team development, the team discover what their duties will be. The team commences to work together. Each member has his specific job to perform. Members may change roles as skills are better assessed. Team meetings will result in achieving specific goals. This is the time when teams can break apart and accomplish nothing, or go gang busters and get every project finished to perfection. Experienced team leaders will lead the team past this and into successful completion. This stage is also the "make or break" stage. Many teams fail during stage 2. Communication and dedication often fall apart and nothing is accomplished. Without strong leadership, a team will get passed the learning phase.

When a team passes into the next stage the team members have made a commitment to make the team a success. Assignments are carried out. Once stage 3 is obtained, the team will work well together and the project run like clock work. The members embrace the diversity of each other and work together as one. Once the team is up and running smoothly, new members may be shunned by the existing team.

The team may take quite some time to get to the final stage. By this stage the team is working like a well oiled machine. The entire team is witnessing the fruits of the effort that all are putting into the project or process. The individual members have learned how to work together and use the talents of the entire group to work as one. During this stage, the leaders can step back and need only offer advise when asked.

New members entering can tend to slow the team down. They may even revert back to the first stage for a time. But, typically the group gets back on track quickly.

Team Training

Our team is going gang busters. We have gotten our blogs set up. We have learned how to add banners and post our information. Some did not get articles to post written as yet, but next weeks training is covering time management skills. I for one can't wait.

Some members are using different forms of advertising their F5MC business, with varying results. In time we will all have effective advertising in place for building a great team.

Article marketing is highly effective advertising. But this type of advertising takes time and patience. It takes time to get people to read an article. Once they are reading, something needs to make them click on your links to find out more information about your opportunity.

Team building is a fast way to build an F5MC business. F5MC is about team work and helping each other learn to market their business. So many pay their 5 bucks and never do a thing. Maybe they just expect money to fall from the sky without any effort. Nothing worth while is that easy. F5MC is like any other business, you must work to get the rewards.
