There are many Shaklee Product Basic H uses including basic and deep cleaning. Basic H is a concentrated, non-toxic cleaner that is biodegradable and organic. It was developed by the late Dr. Shaklee who had the goal of being in "harmony with nature and good health." As with many great discoveries, Dr. Shaklee made the discovery of the core components of Basic H by accident. In 1960 he released the product that has become one of the mainstays of the Shaklee product line. Two top ways to "get money from a bottle" are:1. Save Big Money on Cleaning Supplies and Other Costs: Basic H was "green" before being "green" was even thought of. The directions on the back of the 16 oz. bottle suggest many of the traditional Shaklee Product Basic H uses where a very small amount of the cleaner is added to water. For a traditional all over cleaner, it suggests that you add 1 teaspoon of Basic H to a quart of water. The claim is that a 16 Oz bottle can make 48 gallons of cleaner. Wow! At $12.15 per bottle, that can save a huge amount of money!Along with the traditional uses there are lots of legendary uses of this product that makes "water wetter" (uses not advocated by the Shaklee Corporation):
Spray your plants that have bugs like aphids- I have done this and it works great.
Cleans the grease from your garbage disposal and pipes- Fill up your sink with water, add 1 teaspoon of Basic H
and run garbage disposal as the water goes down. Since your pipes will get cleaned, this is a great way to save on plumber costs as well.
Lawn treatment to decrease water needed to keep the lawn green and take care of the fleas too.
Gum in the hair? Rub a little Basic H on it and it will slip off.
Add a couple drops to your laundry to increase the effectiveness of the detergent so you can use less.2. Market Your Green Business: Basic H helps you to save money through the usage of the highly - concentrated product but it can also be used as a business builder for those in the Shaklee Multi-Level Business to gain distributers and customers. Many distributers use the many Shaklee Product Basic H uses as a point of building their green home based business. Utilizing a small sample bottle that has enough cleaner to allow an individual to mix up a window cleaner solution and a stronger cleaner solution lets the customer see for themselves the effectiveness of the product.In the wave of "green consciousness," the marketing of Basic H and its gentleness on the environment provides a treasure chest of opportunity to the individual who wants to set up home meetings, attend green conferences, talk to friends and family about the benefits of this product. However, with the growth of the social media and online marketing, many of these traditional methods are not as effective as they once were so savvy business owners are seeking ways to take advantage of the internet like so many of the fortune 500 companies. Using social media, companies like Ford are giving themselves an advantage in the market place.

If You Want Trust You Have to Earn It
Nobody will argue the point that "life wasn't meant to be easy" but life could certainly be easier for us in many different ways.Coming from a corporate background with an emphasis on sales or as I like to think of it-(relationships), there is a key to success that you simply cannot survive without.That key is trust.There are many definitions of trust but to put it simply trust is a "Firm reliance on the integrity, ability, or character of a person or thing"In the outside world businesses come and go but there is only one direction it can go if trust does not form the nucleus of the relationship.Just as people will not or at least should not buy from you if they don't like you, the chances of a long term relationship forming whether it be personal or of a business nature is zero without trust.Businesses and relationships on the internet bring up even more challenges for a number of reasons.The reality is that the building of trust online should be your number 1 priority when building an online business or outside interests for that matter.Human nature dictates that the public are cautious. They are wary of sharp marketers over promising and under delivering and they are growing increasingly skeptical when it comes to spending money with someone they don't know... and rightly so.As a consumer, my advice is to only deal with people you feel you can trust and make sure that you have taken the time to get to know someone.Prospective customers often operate on a level of paranoia and distrust because of bad experiences over the internet. Don't fight this battle.It is the landscape we work within. What you need is to accept it and build a strategy to overcome.How do we develop trust with seemingly poor odds stacked against us?First and foremost, be yourself. Forget being something you are not. Faking it till you make it may work in the outside world but is a dangerous practice online.If you have a presence online, start with your web page. This will be most people's first impression so it counts. It does not have to be the best but it needs to relay to the viewer a bit of who you are.Be open. Offer up a piece of yourself. A relationship is a mutual thing so take some time with some key steps.• Maintain an up to date and personable about you page.• Publish contact details without fear.• Include photos and testimonials if you have any.• Keep a blog to share more of yourself.• Associate your sales sites with credibility and offer security for comfort.• Develop a link with privacy regulation when in business.• Brand yourself and be consistent to maximize credibility.• Go the extra yard when it comes to customer service.• Provide information that is both objective and transparent.• Give people what they want before giving what you want.• Take your time, build relationships and the trust will come.• Treat users the same way you would enjoy being treated.My last advice is for people developing businesses on the ever growing social sites.Don't send sales pitches as your only communication. Selling by hit and miss strategies and using probability of success as the answer does not spell trust. But that's only my opinion.In conclusion, the anonymity of people and businesses online can bring out the worse in people.In the end, your success will come down to honesty, transparency and your trustworthiness.Everything you do should be done to increase the level of trust people have in you!Do this and a long and fruitful journey online can be that much easier.

Evaluating MLM Matrix Systems
Sometimes, the way an MLM matrix is organized can make it very difficult to make a living. You may not be making very much on your network marketing, not because you're not good at it, but because the compensation plan makes it impossible for you to do so! Therefore it is vital that you learn how to evaluate an MLM Matrix.The first question you should ask yourself is how many people you'll need to make your target income. On average, it takes 1300 people per team to make a network marketer any money. This figure can soar to as high as 4000 people. Why? Because the hidden variable your comp plan rarely talks about directly is attrition-the fact that 90% of the people you gather into your network are going to fall away within the first 2 months, largely because they aren't making any money yet. You can of course lower this figure by staying highly involved with your team, but you still have to know your attrition number and how it impacts your bottom line.The second question you need to ask is whether the majority of your commissions are going to come from product sales. If they come from recruiting new "workers" who are on auto-ship, and the income is really only coming from those one time auto-ship buys without ever spiraling off into actually getting product into consumer hands then you're in trouble.People who come in looking to build a business are not going to be excited about the product for long if that business isn't growing. It isn't going to grow on one-off sales to people who think they're about to replace their full time incomes by doing nothing but recruiting other people onto auto-ship.Pyxism is a travel based network marketing opportunity that is worth checking out if you're concerned about the compensation of the MLM matrix! Pyxism starts paying out at six people and your team never splits away from you, meaning the compensation plan is based on integrity and is dedicated to your success.

Monavie - MLM Review of the Invite Taste and Share System - Is it Flawed?
Monavie is one of the fastest growing companies in network marketing especially in the health and wellness acai berry industry. What they claim to be their key success to incredibly fast growth is attributed to the Invite Taste And Share System of marketing Monavie juice products. I had the opportunity to speak to many Monavie distributors and have received tremendous differences in opinion regarding their system of signing up distributors and customers. The ones who are struggling with that system are not what you would call influential people with a large sphere of influence.How Does Invite Taste And Share System Work?Very simply. If you are a Monavie distributor, you are instructed to invite all your friends and colleagues to your home for a so-called party. Obviously there is a hidden agenda. And when your friends do come, you start the party by pouring out glasses of the Monavie juice and pass it out to everyone to sample. The whole purpose of this strategy is to expose people to the product to peak their interest to get them interested in finding out more.And for those who are interested, you simply hand them either a CD or brochure that tells them more about Monavie and how they can reap the health benefits of the product. There is a DVD that explains the business opportunity to them.What Major Problems Did Struggling Monavie Distributors Face With This System?The problem was presenting the business opportunity immediately to their friends right away once they have drank samples of the juice. A lot of them have told me how their friends and colleagues were really turned off by their presentation and were upset at how they were suckered into some sales pitch about some juice associated with a business opportunity.How Did These Monavie Distributors Resolve Their Problem?After making the mistake of pitching the business opportunity, they vowed that next time they would only invite their friends to try out the product first without mentioning anything at all about the business opportunity. This sounds more professional. Pitching both the product followed by the business opportunity sounds really tacky and it rubs people the wrong way.Just think about it. How you would like to be told by a friend to come to his or her party only to find out that he or she is trying to get you to sample some juice product so you can buy into his MLM opportunity. Does that sound shady to you?The Right Way To Do Invite Taste And Share That WorksYou just tell your friends or colleagues that you just started a business marketing an exotic fruit beverage that can help them feel good and look younger. And you are looking for testimonials and need them to help you by trying out the Monavie juice products. Most people would be happy to support their friend's business by trying the products so they can offer a testimonial if the product really delivers.Do you see the difference with this approach? You are not pitching the business opportunity to your friends. But instead, all you are asking is for your friends to do you a favor by trying out the juice and possibly offering a testimonial.If you had started a restaurant, doesn't it make sense for you to tell your friends about it and have them to come over to sample your food? They will support your business without a doubt. That is what friends are for. That is the same approach that distributors should adapt to their Monavie business.

Magic Power Coffee Review - What is Magic Power Coffee?
I myself have come across many network/relationship marketing opportunities, and from what I have seen, there are several factors that determine whether a company like Magic Power Coffee, or MPC, will be able to gain serious buzz, or whether it will fall. The purpose of this review is to give you those facts.Magic Power Coffee 1st Factor- In order for a company like MPC to stand on its own, it has to have a unique product, the right marketing niche, and the right leadership standing behind it. Give these factors, Magic Power Coffee definitely has potential. This it because it does have a unique product coming to market, that is already in HIGH DEMAND all over the world (coffee is the second largest trade commodity in the WORLD next to petroleum. And who does not enjoy sex? With this combination, there is little competition in the market place. On top of that, MPC's CEO is Jeff Binder, a successful businessman who once was mentored by the great Ray Kroc himself. In most cases, that is the type of story that can really thrive in relationship marketing, and early distributors can build serious momentum off the initial buzz and energy. That looks very good for Magic Power Coffee.Magic Power Coffee 2nd Factor- A network marketing company will not flourish unless the right people in the field are standing behind it. These leaders will have to have a power presence over their networks or the company's growth will become stagnant. However, if Magic Power Coffee can tap into BIG distributors, and recruit some people with great influence in the industry, it is most likely that there will be momentum. It really depends on the strength of the distributors, no matter how great the product is. Magic Power Coffee may have something here though. It looks like industry leaders are taking a look at this, and that is ALWAYS a plus.But there is something that you will need to understand:Magic Power Coffee 3rd Factor- Any business, MPC included, will not benefit the newbie marketer...unless you know how to MARKET, generate LEADS, and understand certain concepts behind true success in the industry first. As an entrepreneur you must educate yourself first and foremost, develop yourself, and to always stay 'green and growing.'This is the secret to success. If you follow this formula, and really educate yourself on to marketing your business like a professional...then you will have major advantages over most distributors.

Are You Afraid to Opt-In?
I was communicating with a friend on Facebook today about networking and communicating with new people, and she told me she is always finding that people are afraid to opt-in for free information. This puzzles her so I thought I would dig in to this, because I have felt that fear myself.So what awful things do we think will happen if we give our information to opt-in?
Unwanted phone calls interrupting us
Massive amounts of email
Offers to buy things that will tempt us
The first one is my biggest fear, so I give my cell phone number when I opt-in. I leave my phone in the kitchen where I won't even hear it if I am asleep or "indisposed." I turn it off when in meetings. When I do hear it ring, I answer it (unless I am driving), but if it is a recorded message I hang up right away. I only talk to people, not computers! When I talk to a person, if they offer something I don't want I simply say "no" and ask that they not call again. If they do call again after I have asked them not to, I remind them that they are breaking the law.When I have asked for information, I do read the emails at least at first. Normally, I get an email from opt-in campaigns once a day or less. I can handle that, especially if they provide something of value. If it turns out to be all sales pitches and no valuable information, I opt-out. Remember that legally, they must always provide an opt-out method and it is usually quick and easy.This last one was tough for me when I was floundering in my business and not getting any (good) direction from my upline. I spent a bunch of money on things that didn't help me. Now that I have good direction, I don't spend money on these things. I might read emails or watch videos but it has to be free, because at the moment I am too busy with good free advice to bother paying anyone for it!Now, why should we be willing to opt-in? I personally believe we can all learn new things and we never "know it all." I believe there are no coincidences in life, so if something gets my attention I at least look into it. Technology changes daily and new websites pop up daily and there are some I just never knew were there that offer great value. I have already received priceless value from several programs I opted-in to. And even if the site turns out to be something I have no use for, it can often give me an idea to write about! If it is particularly obnoxious or scammy you can bet I will use that for a blog, article, or video! If I feel that way about it, other people do too. And some people may not have the training to recognize certain programs as illegal or unethical, so I like to point those out to save people some heartache.So don't be afraid to opt-in. Just hide your wallet and opt-out if there is no value!

Evolv MLM Review - Evolv Health Water Beverage Or High Energy Drink Side Effects
Evolv is a new network marketing company that has remarkably risen to the challenge of fighting for their market share of the multi-billion dollar bottled water industry. With thousands of bottled water companies struggling everyday to get on the store shelves of Walmart and Walgreens, how is Evolv going to effectively penetrate the drinking population market? With Evolv's individual bottled water priced barely over $2 a bottle, most consumers will find it incredibly too pricey. Some probably would settle for the 30 cent per bottle if purchased in bulk at their local Costco and Walmart stores. The question lingering in our minds is this: Will consumers want to pay for bottled water at the price of $2? Energy drinks are in that price range some where.Evolv's Patented Archaea Active Ingredient Could Be The Reason Behind Their $2 A Bottle Pricing StructureEvolv has a unique ingredient in their bottled water that is not found elsewhere. That ingredient, the Archaea Active, has been proven to increase oxygenation at the cellular levels resulting in rapid increases in energy. When you look at it this way, it does make sense. Having more oxygen does give you more energy. Why bother with the side effects of high energy drinks that do more harm than good?The question that still remains is this. Does having a patented ingredient justify their high price for a bottle of water? It depends on the consumer's perspective. You have to realize that people pay for things when they perceive it to be worth that much. This term is known as perceived value. It is the driving force behind why people buy. I am assuming that Evolv has already done their market research on that perceived value.Evolv Would Have To Test The Price In The Market Place To Determine Its ViabilitySmart internet marketers have been known for having the smarts to test whatever products they are selling at four levels of price points ranging from the highs and lows to see how people respond to such prices. With that being said, the law of economics would come into play: Supply Vs. Demand. Now let me ask you a question? Would you buy $2 bottled water from Evolv if it can really deliver to you what it claims it can: high energy along with health and wellness?What would the high energy drink population think? Would they switch over to the healthier version of high energy water? As it goes with anything in life, the destiny of the company's success is predicated on their distributor's marketing asset. Are the distributors well trained on how to market the health benefits of Evolv to the masses? How are they going to justify the high price for bottled water? This is going to be an ongoing challenge that Evolv distributors are going to be faced with as they deal with customer objections in their presentation process.
