Dear
<$firstname$>,
Summer
is here, and I hope this month's newsletter finds you enjoying it to the
fullest. Hopefully, you're also taking advantage of the good weather
to get out and tell people about your stamping business! Lots to
talk about this month, including our first audio product - a motivational
CD to help you overcome your fears about starting and running your stamping
business! I'm VERY excited about it, and I hope you enjoy listening
to it as much
as I enjoyed putting it together!

Available on CD! What
Are YOU Afraid Of!?
20
Fears About Starting and Running
A Stamping Business...
And
Why You Shouldn't Let Them Stop You! The
idea of starting and running a stamping business can be very intimidating. As
you make the shift from stamping hobbyist to stamping business owner, your
mind tends to come up with reasons why you can't or won't be
successful. These fears become obstacles that prevent you from
proceeding. My
new motivational CD, "What
Are YOU Afraid Of!?"
explores 20 of the most common fears and gives you the information and
motivation you need to overcome them. Some of the fears we'll look
at are:
-
"My
family doesn't support me."
-
"I've
never run a business before."
-
"I
don't have enough time to run a business."
-
"I'm
not a good salesperson."
-
"I
don't know enough people to make a stamping business work."
-
...and
15 more!
Not
only will this CD help motivate you, but it also gives you the answers to
some of the most common objections you'll hear when recruiting others into
your business.

Now
Taking October Bookings for
Live
Seminars and Workshops
I've
been having a great time getting out and meeting you in person at my live
seminars and workshops. So far, the response has been great:
"I can't
tell you how much I enjoyed your presentation today and so did everyone
else here. It was very refreshing to have someone down to earth,
honest and right to the point. I have seen many speakers and
the one thing I tire of is all the glamour they put into their
"act". I find that listening to all the stories of when
they worked their home-based business and how they signed on X amount of
personal recruits when they did the one business and then X amount in
their second business when they left that one, drags most of us down.
But the way you break it down is realistic. Some of the speakers I
have seen are very entertaining and I have gotten one or two somethings
out of it but have never put any of it into action like I feel I can do
now. Thank you .. thank you .. thank you!" - G.O., New York
If
you're an upline with a large network, or the administrator of a large
group, feel free to get in touch with me, and I'll send you information
about my live presentations. These business-building seminars and workshops can be
done in-person or over a conference call phone line which will accommodate
up to 150 people. If you'd like more information, please send me an
e-mail.
New
Stamping
Business Coaching Group
Starts
in September!
It's
been two months since I started the inaugural Stamping Business Coaching
Group. We meet, via conference call, on Thursday nights at 10:00
p.m. Eastern to discuss all aspects of the stamping business, motivate
each other, share challenges, set goals and celebrate successes. I'm
happy to report the Group is going strong! So strong, in fact, that
I've decided to start a second Group in September. This new Group will
meet on a different night of the week. Look for that announcement in
August.
If
there is a particular day you'd like the new Coaching Group to meet,
please send me an e-mail.

Book
Recommendation of the Month

How
To Win Friends and Influence People

by
Dale
Carnegie
Believe
it or not, this book was first published in 1937! Amazingly, it's
as useful today as it was then.
If
you're one of those people who worries about how you'll come across to a
prospective downline, or potential customer, this book will help you
learn to speak to people so you don't feel like you're manipulating
them.....and more importantly....they don't feel like they're being
manipulated.
