If you never thought you could make it in Network Marketing, guess again

Network Marketing Jedi Master, Coach Robb West says, come with me and never worry about money again.

For Immediate Release 01-13-2008

Pure Health Trends Network announced today its partnership with Robb West of Camano Island Washington.

For more than 20 years, Robb West has mentored and trained people to be successful by helping people transform self-limiting beliefs into self-fulfilling breakthroughs to achieving their dreams. His motivational story of rising from a dyslexic plumber, to a successful entrepreneur has inspired many people.

In the early to mid 2000’s, Robb, along with his passion for Network Marketing, turned media company Smart Age Media from “just lead generation” to a full fledged Network Marketing Support Company.

"Thanks for the time and instruction this evening. I think the last time I was this excited was 1991 when I joined Amway and went to a big function and saw there were people like me. I really feel like this time it's my turn to succeed, and all the past "failures" were building blocks to get me where I am today. In the past 15 years I have overcome All my fears of talking to people on the phone in person, no matter, but now, I have to learn how to close the deal. No more catch and release, just hook, look and keep or toss." — Larry Alford

"Wow! What a great call. You two just presented the very best training call I have ever heard. The best part of it was how it got me thinking in so many creative directions. THANK YOU BOTH!" — Cathy Sechrist

Robb helps people see how, by thinking differently; you can make choices that transform obstacles into opportunity. As a Networking Jedi Master, Robb often quotes “MASTER YODA” when people tell him they will give it a try. Robb chants… No, try not. Do, or do not. There is no "try."

“I see Pure Health Trends Network as the next big thing.” Says Robb West. “Some people will look at the year 2008 and wonder what happened? Others are going to look at it and mark it down as their historical year for success. I guess it all depends on what you want to write down on your accomplishment list next year.”

“I’ve just never seen a new company take off so fast and that’s encouraging.” said West. “I really believe it’s because people love the products. We don’t have to worry about here today gone tomorrow fads. These products work!”

Since 1995 the founders of Pure Health Trends Network has been formulating and selling their nutritional product line to the end consumer. With their focus being on female wellness and aging, their products have been sold in clinics, doctors offices, health fairs, and trade shows all over America.

May “The Force” be with us all.

The Top of The Pile

As I go through my notebooks upon notebooks, I always come across articles or musings that I've saved or written. Until now, I would simply put my findings back in the pile or the box, thinking "someday I'll know what to do with these"

Someday is now. NOW, I'm so glad I saved what I have and hope, by giving them to you, you can do with them what I have accomplished.

This was an article written by Jerry Clark. Jerry has an interesting way of painting a picture. I hope you enjoy this article.


Liking It Is Not A Requirement
by Jerry Clark

I
once spoke with a gentleman who was a 54-year old Sales Manager for a major U.S. Computer Company. He had never been in Network Marketing but was highly considering it for the first time.

He said, "Jerry, I was in London last month on a business trip. A business associate over there gave me a magazine that was published in the U.K. and I saw an article you wrote in it. I didn't know who you were but I read your article and really got a lot from it. Then I heard you on a radio show when I got back to the U.S., and I thought that was a sign that I should contact you. Over the past 25 years, at least a dozen people have approached me about Network Marketing, but I have never been able to see myself as a distributor."

I asked him what interested him about it now, and he said, "Retirement. Based on my investment portfolio and my income I know I won't be able to retire and continue to live the lifestyle that my wife and I are accustomed to. And based on my research, it appears this thing I've been avoiding all these years - Network Marketing - is our best chance to be able to set ourselves up financially within the next 6-8 years. But I just don't like doing the things that I've been hearing that I would have to do in order to make it work."

I laughed and said, "Great! Welcome to the crowd."

He was puzzled.

I told him that one of the best parts about building a Network Marketing business is the fact that you don't have to like it to do it. There was silence on the phone and I knew he was confused so I continued. I asked him how long he had been in the workforce. He said over 30 years.

I then made the following statement to him: "Are you telling me that over the last 30 years you actually liked waking up in the morning to an electronic rooster ringing in your ear? Did you like rushing in the morning to get into traffic and breathe in the exhaust pipe fumes that came from other cars? Did you like working with a bunch of negative people who were constantly engaged in office politics? Did you like being told when you could take a lunch break, take a vacation, how often you could get sick, and how much money you were worth? Did you actually like telling your four children that they couldn't get the toys they wanted and deserved? Did you like telling your wife that you couldn't take the vacation that you all deserved and desired? Did you like being bossed around by someone who was less competent than you were?"

I went on a tangent for at least another minute or two with this type of questioning. I finished by saying, "I didn't like a lot of what I had to do, but I knew I wasn't going to like doing all that corporate stuff for 30 or 40 years either. So I figured if I was going to do something I didn't like, I may as well do it for a shorter period of time. That's why I chose Network Marketing.

"Today I'm a 32 year old guy who lives in a 7,000 sq. ft. home, travels the equivalent of five trips around the world each year, associates with positive, uplifting and pumped up people, and wakes up when I'm done sleeping to a beautiful view of trees and the sounds of the waterfall crashing down on my swimming pool. I figured if I was going to do something I didn't like, I may as well do it for a shorter period of time.

"So my friend, you can go ahead and spend the next 6-8 years of your life doing something you don't like and end up flat broke, or you can spend the next 6-8 years of your life doing something you don't like and set yourself up for life. Nevertheless, don't be surprised if you start to not only like Network Marketing, but also love it. It's your life and it's your choice."

By the time the call ended, the guy was in tears. I think he got the point.

Jerry Clark became a self-made millionaire while still in his 20's. Today, through his company Club Rhino, Inc., he conducts personal and professional development seminars around the World.

What Is Network Marketing?

taken from the Pure Health Trends Network web site

By Robb West

Network Marketing is recognized as a very respectable business method in the world today. Network Marketing is today what Franchising was 25-30 years ago and one of the fastest growing industries in the world.

In traditional marketing, everything has to start out with the manufacturer (It has to be made). From there, it gets shipped or sold through a distribution center.

The goods go from a National Distributor to a Regional Distributor to a Local Distributor where the Local Distributor fills the retail stores. This is where customers like you and I go into the store and exchange dollars for merchandise.

Only about 20% of the dollars we spend in a retail store make it back to a manufacturer.

The retail stores absorb most of the risk by having to cover such overhead costs such as insurance, heating, air conditioning, electricity, rent, payroll and so on.

In Network Marketing, the product is taken directly from the manufacturer to the end user, eliminating the middle men and allowing 2 things to happen:

1. More money goes back to the manufacturers for research and development to make a better product.

2. And the rest, we (distributors) keep!

How would you like to put 80 cents of each dollar back into your pocket? Makes sense or should we say cents?!
