Statistics Matter

Do you check your statistics regularly?
Do you know what that means?

Statistics are something that are very important and I'll show you why.

I'm a bit of a statistical nut ... if you are into the personality colours, you'd say that was the green in me and you'd be very right. Statistics come easy to me especially with my background in Accounting.

I love math but I know not everyone does and not everyone understands statistics.

With September newly behind us, I decided it was time to see what kind of results we are seeing with our new EarthFriendlyBiz (EFB) prospecting system.

Our EFB program originally aired (came online) back in October of 2007. It worked very well and in July of 2008, we decided it was time to take EFB to the next level and we released the new and improved EarthFriendlyBiz on August 15, 2008.

With September being our first full month, I decided it would be a good time to check the statistics. Before I share my results, let me explain how EFB works.

  • In Step One, visitors fill out the form to learn more information about our simple 3 step system. New prospects are added to your "list" maintained within the EFB system. They will begin to receive our system generated emails.
  • In Step Two, visitors learn about the 3 programs that we use in marketing our business (these are GDI, List Joe and Free Traffic Bar)
  • In Step Three, visitors register to receive their own EFB system to develop prospects. New members are added to your "list" maintained within the EFB system.
  • When Step 3 is completed, new members are introduced to your primary business and directed to follow a simple system to setup and advertise their EFB link. They will also begin to receive our system generated emails.

Below are the results from one month of advertising my EarthFriendlyBiz link to the resources you will be taught to use, in other words, one month of doing what you will be doing - we call this simple duplication.

Period covered: September 1 - 30, 2008

Step One:
  • New EFB Prospects 506

Step Two:
  • New GDI Members 7 (1.4%)
  • New ListJoe Members 56 (11%) - 8 members upgraded (14%)
  • New FreeTrafficBar Members 60 (11.8%) - 17 members upgraded (28%)
Step Three:
  • New EFB Members 102 (20%)

Primary Business:
  • 5 New Business Builders (4.9% of new EFB Members)

Overall, I'd say it was a pretty good month, wouldn't you? And the best part of this is that y0u can easily duplicate these numbers.

If you advertise regularly (there are many resources available online and we show you how to do it), and generate traffic to your EarthFriendlyBiz website you can expect to see the same "percentage of results".

To keep it simple, let's say you generate 100 new prospects through advertising your EFB website. With 100 new prospects, you can expect:

  • 1 new GDI member (1%)
  • 11 new List Joe members (11%) and 2 upgrades (14%)
  • 12 new Free Traffic Bar Members (11.8%) and 3 upgrades (28%)
  • 20 new EFB members (20%)
  • 1 new member in your primary business (4.9%)

I hope that makes sense. Can you see how simple it can be to duplicate this process? Imagine when your 20 new EFB members begin advertising and generating 100 new prospects a month? That's 20 times the effort of you alone!

Can you see how your business will grow using this simple system?

The secret is being consistent and persistent with your advertising and promotions adding new advertising resources to you portfolio as your time and money budget allows.

Duplicating the process will cause your business to grow as well as your income. You WILL make more money!

If you aren't using it ... now is the time to start. Visit http://www.earthfriendlybiz.com and learn about our Earth Friendly Business.

If you are using the EFB system, please let us know what YOUR results are like!

Have a Great day!

The Secret of Success by Lou Tice

Everyday, something of importance will cross your desk
Everyday, news of something new will come your way
Everyday, a message will appear that you need to heed

This is one of those messages.

Thank you to my good friend, Sarah, for passing this on. Please enjoy Lou Tice's Secret of Success ...

Winner's Circle Network with Lou Tice - 1/31/08 - "The Secret of Success"

Today we are going over the secret of success, in one word. And, I am going to guarantee it.

For nearly 40 years, I have been studying success. Some of the most successful people in the world have been my students, and I, in turn, have learned a great deal from them. I have also spent a lot of time in the company of some of the world's most respected research psychologists, talking about what makes some people succeed and others collapse - the difference, in short, between the cans and the can-nots, the do's and the do-nots.

And after all these years of study and research, I can tell you one thing with the utmost confidence: the secret of success is attitude. That's it. And it is really not a secret. People who succeed do not have fewer problems than other people. They do not start out with the most brainpower or better parents or more money, either.

As a matter of fact, sometimes they start out working against incredible odds. But they have a way of looking at things, a way of seeing obstacles as possibilities, a way of hanging in there and making the most of every opportunity that almost guarantees success.

They are flexible, optimistic and hardworking. So if you want to sum it up in a word, it is not difficult to do: success is a question of attitude.

Lou Tice

If you can seriously grasp the concept of having the right attitude, then you can accomplish anything in life that you set your mind to.

I certainly know that when my attitude is not in check, things in my life do not go as I wish because my thinking is all wrong and I'm attracting all the things I don't want.

The right attitude will help you attract the things in life you most want.

When you pass a mirror today ... take a good look and ask yourself, "how's my attitude?".

Have a great 'attitude' day,
