Quote of the Day

If you don't absolutely

LOVE what you do for a living,

then you are not truly LIVING.

Thinking of Buying A Franchise? Pros and Cons

Franchises are touted as a ticket to financial freedom and independence from the JOB environment.
However, the cost of getting into a franchise can run into the $100,000s to $1,000,000s of dollars to buy into one.
Examples - Massage Envy franchise?

Total Investment: $140,000-$400,000
Initial Franchise Fee: $29,000-$39,000
Royalty Fee: 5%
Term of Agreement: 5 years

KFC Franchise
Fast-food chicken restaurant $1,100,000-$1,700,000

Hilton Hotels & Resorts Franchise
Upscale hotels & resorts $33,000,000-$57,000,000


You see, it can be a pretty steep entry fee!

This doesn't even take into consideration that you really just bought yourself a job and will likely not see a net profit for years.

Employees, training, turnover, following countless rules and regulations, no time freedom, getting squeezed by corporate profit sharing and the economy/cost of labor on the other end and you are probably asking yourself, "what was I thinking?"

Enter the better solution by a long shot (in my opinion). The home based business - network marketing - internet marketing industry. The travel industry in particular is recession proof. The company, Global Resorts Network offers a compensation plan that is revolutionary and incredibly lucrative. Global Resorts Network has a stellar reputation in the travel industry. The highest converting automated sales system that will close your global resorts network sales for you on autopilot is the REVERSE FUNNEL SYSTEM.
The has a minuscule entry price compared to a franchise. For less than $5000, the reverse funnel system coupled with the global resorts network compensation plan gives you a truly legitimate business that has the ability to create realistic 5 to 6 figure monthly income within your first 6 to 12 months of getting started.
What's more, the ongoing company training and sharing by industry leading experts will help even the greenest newbies experience massive success when they decide to take the business seriously and not treat it like a hobby.
The reverse funnel system is a company that believes in the 'pay it forward' concept backed by honesty and integrity like nothing I've ever seen. The transparency and level of sharing by those active in the reverse funnel system comes to a surprise by those who have always been used to the status quo of competition, distrust, and holding your best secrets close to the vest. The reverse funnel system is a refreshing new way of doing business. It's a model of the future of enlightened, positive business models that are out to make the world a better place rather than be self-centered and focused on greed.

Skills Make Labor More Valuable

As you know by now, if you have been a long time subscriber to our weekly E-zine, I'm a very big proponent of activity, labor and discipline. In fact I devoted one of the five major pieces to the life puzzle (in my book under the same name) to the subject of activity and labor. But now let me add another key word to the labor equation - skillful. Yes, skillful labor.

We need the skills to help build our family's dreams, the skills to stir up an enterprise and make it successful. We need skills to build equities for the future. We need skills of all kinds.

How about this - skillful language. If you just talk to your family you can hold them all together, but if you skillfully talk to your children you can help them build dreams for the
future. That is why I spend so much time at the Weekend
Seminar on communication - how to affect others with words.
You can't be lazy in language - it cost too much. What if you meant to say "what's troubling you?" and instead you said "what's wrong with you?". Wow, that's too big a mistake. And sure you could have made that mistake 10 years ago, but not now. You should have gotten much better by now in language and communication.

Skills multiply labors by two, by five, by ten, by fifty, by one hundred times. Hey, you can chop a tree down with a hammer but it takes about 30 days, called labor. But if you trade the hammer in for an ax, you can chop the tree down in about 30 minutes. What's the difference in 30 days and 30 minutes? Skills. Skills made the difference.

So do what you can - labor. But also do the best that you can do – improved skills. And you will find that the labor combined with skills will start producing miracles. Miracles with your money, miracles with your family and miracles in every part of your life.

To Your Success,
Jim Rohn
