Helping you choose business partners and customers

Focus your efforts for 15 minutes every day on prospecting.
Keep a time limit on your calls.
Prospecting is simply an exchange of information.
Our prospects, customers and consultants, want youthfulness, luxury, health, friends, security, money, power, prestige.
Always put yourself in your prospects shoes. It’s human nature to be reluctant to change. Most people have fearful minds.

The consumer is overwhelmed by choice and would like a simpler life. They’re looking for meaning in their lives and are striving for self-improvement versus contentment. They want to give back to the community and are looking for a sense of community, a network, a tribe.
They’ve worked hard and want indulgence, healing, nurturing. You can’t sell, you have to heal. People are looking for choosers, like Oprah(trusted people whose values you identify with and who guide you for best choices).

Self-management and self-discipline
Ask yourself, “Can I work alone?” Most of this work happens when no one is looking. You must lead yourself exceptionally well.

Successful people stay in their strength zone. Grow in areas you are good in.
Be yourself. You’ll mess up trying to be someone else.

By 2012, nearly 10,000 Americans a day will be turning 65. Adults over 45 are 39% of the population. Aging customers are to spending more than $30 billion a year on anti-aging products. Most influential area of product growth is the linking of internal health and beauty with anti-aging strategies. “Skingestibles” promote beauty from the inside out. Nutraceuticals are becoming mainstream. Don’t forget the supplements that go along with our skin care lines. Our specials can be located from my home page at www.mindymccortney.com and are good until the end of the month. These are GREAT specials and sensational products. Check them out! Have a great day!

Get the FEED bag and Go Green!

I'm sure you're aware of the issues with consuming plastic bags from the grocery store! I've been happy to use them for cleaning up after the dog on our walks, but I've found something that can help feed children and carry groceries home, so I've made the switch! It will cost you $59.95 from Amazon but it will FEED children! Check it out! By the way, I'm sure you've seen the press on David Bach and his new book. Here is the link www.greengreen.com
Have a great day and help someone! M

Be the best you possible!

Dr. Roizen, Chief Wellness Officer at the Cleveland Clinic, and co-author of the Dr. Oz book, You Staying Young, says certain nutrients are known to be brain foods, the main one being omega-3 fatty acids. They improve the function of your message-sending brain neurotransmitters. He recommends a multivitamin twice a day as an insurance policy against an imperfect diet. He says you need to take a multi every 12 hours or so to keep them at a stable level. My plan is this: First thing in the morning, the Amla Rush. After breakfast, my pack of the S-Force Multi with our Mega Omegas. Then throughout the day with snacks I take our other supplements, the Calstrum, C and A line supplements. This way I spread my vitamins throughout the day. By the way, by doing this and taking our Green Tea Plus along with our Green Tea Water Amplifier, I have more energy, drink less coffee, am more focused and I am losing weight without changing anything. My brother, Michael, a financial advisor who also rehabs houses in the evening, says he feels lethargic when he is off the vitamins and Amla. He did it as a test! My brother, John, is lifting more weight at the gym than ever before! I promise you, there is something to our nutrition line! Try it today by going to www.mindymccortney.com! Here's to your health!

Self Mag and Dermos give advice

You need at least 4 things for great skin. Cleansing products (wash skin at the sink not in the shower, steam can trap bacteria), Antioxidants (apply before sunscreen), Sunscreen (UV rays sap moisture from your skin) and Anti-aging products (clean skin is primed to absorb potent antiaging products). We at Seriesse have all of the above!
For your eyes, sleep on two pillows to prevent fluids from pooling under the eyes. White bumps are clogged pores from too much moisturizer, cut back. Dark circles are often caused by dehydrated skin. Moisturizer is the answer so pick up our Ice Age. Use your glycolic mask twice a week to absorb oil and help prevent breakouts. Must haves: Vit C, Retinols, Peptides! We have it all so go to www.mindymccortney.com to order and learn more!

British Hill on Crafting Your Vision

The information below comes from Seriesse consultant and Director, British Hill, who did our most recent team call. Please see below on how to order the CD set she mentioned.

Per your request, here's the info for everyone listening to the call that may be interested in getting the CD album set. I mentioned you would get the information out for those interested in purchasing it. I've copied the actual marketing paragraph from Randy Gage, it explains the program nicely.

Thanks for sharing it with everyone...I really believe we will all benefit from it! British

Crafting Your Vision

As soon as this 12-audiotape album was released, it was hailed as one of the greatest self-development tools since Think and Grow Rich! It gets to the real root cause of success or failure - the vision you create for yourself. It's pleasing to your ego to assume your group is not growing because of outside factors and other circumstances. It's very convenient to blame your lack of progress on the compensation plan, the price of the products, timing, the area you live and a host of other external factors. But the truth is - you are reaping the results of the vision you created! Get it today at www.ProsperityUniverse.com
