‘Ello Me Hartie Home Party Consultant,

As you look at this picture of the GREAT DEPRESSION TIMES I know you are fearful.  One need only turn on the “boob-tube” to hear the stories of the falling sky. BUT, is the sky really falling? Well let’s see…

The NFL Football Teams can pay 14 million to a QB.
From somewhere AIG will get 30 Billion.
Rachel Ray (the chef we all love), she made 18 Million last year.
Suze Orman, the financial guru to women made 6 Million in 2008 with the goal of making 10 Million in 2009.
I will not waste your time discussing Oprah cause we all know!

I find it really disappointing that we talk constantly of the difficulties of the great depression and yet hardly any mention is made of this staggering FACT:

That more millionaires were made during The Great Depression than in any other era in U.S. history.  So what were the most common traits of the Great Depression Millionaires?

• And often times, their greatest successes were birthed out of adversity.

• They rejected conventional wisdom.

• They were creative, out-of-the-box thinkers.

• They understood the simple and powerful truths of money.

So, first of all, let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself—nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance ~ Franklin D. Roosevelt

What Others Are Saying About The Little Black Book Of Home Party Marketing Secrets:

Hi Patricia,

I read the e-book and the first thing that comes to mind is Bravo!.

I personally could relate to everything you said because I was once a high achieving distributor for a network marketing company.  As a matter of fact, I was the first black female to ever reach the Gold Executive position in that company (10K per mth).

Long story, I left after I saw the rampant deception happening there.  It was VERY troubling to my spirit and when God finished with me, I finished them! hahaha!

We’ll have to talk about it one day.  Anyway, I just wanted to tell you that I enjoyed the ebook, although it should be edited for grammar (I always have to have this done too!), you’ve done an excellent work for the industry or should I say those who are experiencing innocent challenges.

Thanks again for the blessing.  You’re a blessing girl!

All the best,

This week I received a most saddening phone call.  The voice on the other end was that of a woman in despair. She is an independent distributor with Herbal Life.  She has been with the company for 10 months.  She is also $10,000 in credit card debt.

I asked how it came to be that she racked up such a huge bill.  She said buying leads from the the company leads co-op program.  If you have read The 10 Deadly Home Party Plan Business Mistakes, you have no doubt come across a similar story.  (I wish I could record them for, but there is that privacy clause, that I have to adhere to)!

She asked for my help.  I said, OK!  Here is what we need to do, you will need to make a $67 investment in your training.

She hesitated.

Then she asked me on what days the trainings are held, (which by the way were at no cost to her) were held and I told her Mondays.

“Oh, that will not work,” she told me.

I gave her some resources to look at while she thought over her decision.

She did read the information.  The following day she called me and informed me that she had no money.

However, she did inform me that she would be greatly pleased if I could find it in the kindness of my heart to work with her at no cost.

Of course I declined.  I had already extended my hand.

I have learned, as many of you will once you begin to put into practice the things you learn in The Little Book of Home Party Marketing Success to:

“Learn to walk away from an unprofitable sale. You’ll do a better job of selling and serving customers when you feel you’ve received a fair price for your effort.” – Mark Sanborn

You see many people are willing to spend thousands of dollars chasing after the dream.

I would like to assure you that her belief was the more money I pour into this the more successful I will be.

Hmmm….well let me share with you something called the Fred Factor:

The faster you try to solve a problem with money, the less likely it is the best solution. Anyone can buy his or her way out of a problem with enough money. The challenge is to out-think, rather than to outspend, the competition.

I also know right about now you are thinking if only I won the lottery.  Indeed if only.  But we know lottery winners often fare far worse than they started out. Ending up in debt and poverty.

Its not about the money.  It is about the investment in yourself.

Do you think if today, Oprah Winfrey got the call which told her it was over, do you think she would be able to come back, bigger (no pun intended) and better?

YES!

My favorite entrepreneur of all times, Henry Ford; practically uneducated when it came to book learning was once asked, “What if you lost everything you own?” He responded without missing a beat: “I’d have it all back and more within 5 years.”

How is that possible?  Because:

Financial Freedom is not an event, It is a SKILL!

You see my friend with the $10,000 dollar tab was not wrong in buying leads, it is an option.  Where she failed to learn and correct is in her choice not to acquire the SKILL of closing a sale.

Marketing is a skill, prospecting is a skill, asking for the sale (closing) is a skill, leaderships is a skill, writing is a skill, all of which must be cultivated with patience and that is what The Little Black Book Of Home Party Marketing Success Secrets offers a proven step by step guide to increasing home party sales and personal confidence.

I know you want to succeed in your home party business.  I know you want to financial freedom.  I also know you are somewhat fearful.  Expect success and YOU WILL SUCCEED!

So, first of all, let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself—nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance ~ Franklin D. Roosevelt
