David Bullock    David Bullock, co-author of Barack 2.0, brings an engineer's perspective to social media. His focus is helping businesses drive sales and his method is to view social media as tools in his kit - tools that can bring measurable results. David's work on Barack 2.0 had its origins in early 2008 when he and co-author Brent Leary observed that the web traffic for then-candidate Obama was twice that of his nearest rival. David and Brent began a blog that explored how Obama was using social media to drive traffic and identified the lessons his techniques offered for business people. Barack 2.0 grew out of that blog and is the only book that takes a business perspective on Obama's phenomenal success with social media. More information about the book may be found at www.barack20.com. David has a degree in mechanical engineering from the University of Delaware and started his career with engineering positions at Mobil Oil and The DuPont Company, as well as Fanuc Robotics North America.  He learned about statistical control of manufacturing processes, and ultimately began to figure out how to put in place processes that work the first time, every time.  He next moved into sales, where he had an extremely successful run with Fanuc by applying an engineering mindset to running his territory. His sales exceeded $100 million over seven years. David then brought that same approach to his own business development firm, the White Bullock Group. Among his specialties is maximizing the efficiency of sales-oriented web pages, reducing costs while increasing sales and market response by up to 300%. Among his tools is the Taguchi Method, a process originally developed for manufacturing that allows David to rapidly test a wide variety of web page headlines, text and visuals to find the combination that will drive the most traffic and conversion to sales. David has the rare distinction of being certified as a TRIZ/Taguchi Ad Optimization Specialist.   And now David has brought his expertise and problem-solving approach to social media. He is a nationally recognized speaker and provides coaching and consulting services to businesses.   "We studied Barack Obama's use of social media to isolate his key strategies," says Bullock. "That gave us the data to draw up a social media blueprint - a blueprint we share with businesses to help them find a new road to success."

My mission is to help you become the best you, you can be, so you can do the same for someone else.  I truly appreciate you and thank you for listening each week. Please help pass the word to anyone you think could benefit. If you have any comments or suggestions please let me know.   Sincerely,   Tom Chenault Home Based Business Radio Show

Now That's What I Call Commitment!

I want to share with you an inspiring story about a lady named Sonja from Abu Dhabi in just a moment but first, let me ask you...

On a scale of 1-10 how committed are you to the success of your business, right now...Today? When is the last time you were really 100% committed to doing whatever it takes to grow your business to the next level? You might think that's a strange question. Perhaps you believe you are always 100% committed. So let me ask this another way. When is the last time you made an excuse not to do what you knew was important to your success because you felt too tired, too broke, too overwhelmed, too busy, too distracted or too_______________ (you fill in the blank)?

I recently had the privilege of meeting a woman whom I consider a perfect '10' in terms of commitment. Her name is Sonja and she lives in Abu Dhabi which is located in the United Arab Emarites.

Sonja applied for my Dialing for Dollars Workshop and when I saw where she was located and noted the time zone difference, I thought the workshop probably wouldn't work for her.  But I've learned never to make decisions (or excuses) for other people so I called her up. We chatted about her goals and what she most wanted to gain from the workshop and we agreed it was a perfect fit. Although Sonja would have to be getting up at 3:00 in the morning 5 days in a row and dialing into our conference line from half-way around the planet, she made the commitment.

And that's not the end of it. Sonja was always the first one on the webinar, always ready to volunteer and was the first to step up and start interviewing prospects live in front of the rest of the participants. She made a commitment to play full out and as a result she grew tremendously.

Here's what Sonja wrote to me after the workshop:

Hi Tracy,

As you know, I recently took part in your Dialing4Dollars Workshop. What an incredible experience !

Being new in the Network Marketing arena, I found myself hesitating ; not knowing the best way to build a successful network marketing business of my own. I found myself constantly wondering if I'm doing it right and what the next best step will be to success. As a result many precious hours have been lost.

After this workshop I can truly say that I have learnt (and am continuing to learn daily) how to be more focused and which actions I have to take on a daily basis in order to be successful. First, Rome was not built in a day --so take one step at a time; but in the right direction. I am learning how to use my contact manager as well as the basic script when speaking to prospects. Using the contact manager helps to keep me on track without hundreds of post-its all over the house. I have a "do not disturb" sign--so my family knows when I am busy.

When prospecting-always end on a positive call !! I found this so important because. You feel successful and next time I only have positive memories --no negatives. Reward myself--This will take a while...

I have structure to my business and I keep track of all my actions to stimulate growth in my business. This prompts me to do more toward building my business and spend less time doing things around my business that is not productive to business growth.

I cannot thank you and your team enough for this precious information that will lead to my success!

So much to learn but day by day; in every way; I'm getting better and better.

Many thanx,

Sonja and family.

You've probably heard me say it before, "You can't make excuses and money at the same time!" The next time you find your self in the excuse mode, think of Sonja and her commitment. Hopefully it will inspire you as much as it has me!

How Can You Make this Your Best Season Ever?

In case you hadn't noticed, school is back in session and though it may not feel like it quite yet, summer break is over. While that might seem a little sad, it's also exciting!

This is the HOTTEST season in network marketing. People are reviewing the first half of the year and realizing they need to kick it up to meet their goals for the year. It's the final stretch!

People are also beginning to realize the holidays are right around the corner and they're thinking about the extra money they'll need for vacations and gift giving. NOW is the perfect time to re-LAUNCH your business with increased vigor and fervor. Plus you could literally be a life saver to many others who are looking for ways to increase their income right NOW!!!

Why not set a new goal for yourself? How many lives will you save this week, this month, this season?

With your permission, I'd like to help you! In my 20 + years in this industry and the thousands of people I've had to the privilege of working and mentoring with I've detected five basic problems that prevent people from getting the success they so badly desire and richly deserve.

Problem #1 - Fear of the Phone

Problem #2 - Not Knowing What to Say to Prospects

Problem #3 - Lack of Consistent Follow-up

Problem #4 - Procrastination or Poor Time Management Skills

Problem #5 - Lack of Support

Last month I had my first-ever Dialing for Dollars Live Workshop and it was a HUGE success for the participants! 100% said it met or exceeded their expectations and 100% said they'd recommend it to others. They also reported that it was the perfect blend of Hands-On Live Dialing to Prospects combined with content rich training on:

• Overcoming Fear of the Phone - Once & for All!
• Contact Management
• Time Management
• Follow-Up Skills
• Overcoming Procrastination
• Mastering 3-way Calling
• Overcoming Objections
• Closing & Enrolling
• Empowered Leadership

All of this and more in addition to over  5 Hours of LIVE Dialing to Prospects in my learn-as-you-earn training approach (and I paid for the leads!)

I'm taking applications NOW for my second Dialing for Dollars Workshop Intensive. I'll only be accepting 10 people so I can give them one-on-one coaching and plenty of leads. I'll give you the information to apply in just a moment but first...

...Check this out:

“This training was in the top 5 of all the training I've had in Network Marketing. It opened my eyes to another area of marketing. I'm also more focused on my cold calling then ever before.” Keith Graham, Woodridge, VA Financial Destination, (FDI) www.fdidvd.com/110237 “What I learned, I absolutely needed to learn to flourish in this industry. For me, I've been to many workshops, and this is the first one that has ever helped my confidence! I finished the workshop with the tools I need to excel in Internet marketing, but the bonus is that my anxiety about phoning is gone and I'm able to be myself and relax.” Tina Jo Stephens, Mexico Zrii,  www.weareabundance.com "The D4D Workshop Intensive experience was great and I know I benefited greatly and learned a lot from you and my fellow participants. Your sincerity in the way you worked on the phone and one on one with each of us was awesome, empowering and made each of us feel valued. I now know how to call prospects and what to say to them. I no longer have that "fear of calling" and the phone no longer weighs a thousand pounds . As a result of the workshop I know I can do it. "When I smile and dial... I will build my money pile" and "SW, SW, SW, SW ... next!" Anyone who wants to build a home-based networking business over the phone can not go wrong with this workshop. Thank you, Tracy!"

"Alex is a natural born teacher, and he really puts himself into the experience of his students on the other side of the telephone" Lorrie Morgan-Ferrero Red-HotCopy.com Click Here to Read The Full Story Alex Mandossian sets the standard for teleseminars. He's a natural born teacher, and he really puts himself into the experience of his students on the other side of the telephone. There aren't many teachers that do that, and they certainly don't do it as well as Alex does. Very little happens in his class that's not completely orchestrated. Now I won't say, don't get me wrong, things do happen by accident, but he goes with the flow of, like for example, when his son was born and he did a teleseminar from the restroom.

What Happened to My Son?

Wow! Where did February go? I don't know about you but it flew by for me! We've been nose to the grindstone working on a new product launch. It's an AWESOME new tool for network marketers to accelerate their business building online. We're in "soft" pre launch right now. The good thing about that is the price is ridiculously low! The flip side...well there are a few little kinks to be worked out so we don't want any cry babies joining yet! It will be perfect soon...our Beta Testers are really helping so much right  now and we so appreciate them! If you want to check it out go to: http://s.wtpowerbuilder.com  The pre launch pricing won't last too long!

But that's not what I really came here to talk to you about today. I wanted to share with you what happened to my son, Caleb. I invited him to attend Chris Howard's Breakthrough to Success Seminar in San Jose, California. I knew that he would gain a lot from the experience. Caleb is just 19 years old and already embarking on his entrepreneurial career as an audio engineering specialist. He's an amazing young man, self-directed, mature for his age. But something was weighing on him and I could see it. All of us who loved him could. Although very positive minded in many ways, he was also very critical and judgmental of others. To put it in his own words, he had a hatred of humanity.

Let me clarify, he loves people. He's very kind and compassionate! But he loathes what humans are doing to the planet. I think this is a very common mindset for young people today. The problems we have created are so enormous (i.e. Global Warming) that it feels hopeless to the younger generation...and even our own. That's what Caleb was wrestling with...until his BREAKTHROUGH.

Here, let me share it with you in his own words:

"Since attending Christopher Howard's Breakthrough to Success, I feel like a screen has been lifted from in front of my eyes. I was looking out through a filter that I had created for protection from all of the things I felt were wrong or bad at one time or another in my life. The problem was, that I had never taken the time to analyze the changes I had gone through in the mean time. Many of the components of this filter no longer served me and it was time to set them free. In freeing these, I was able to shed much of the negative self-talk, pessimism and limiting beliefs that I had been carrying around with me and projecting out onto the world. I was able to do this without compromising my core ideals and values. In fact, I feel that I am more on track than I have ever been."

~Caleb Scoville, Age 19
Portland, OR

I've talked to Caleb almost every day since the Breakthrough Seminar in January and his new view has not worn off! It is "in" him. He is lighter, brighter, more enthusiastic, has more energy, is happier and 100% on target to manifesting the business goals he set for himself at the seminar.
"He now "gets it" that his pessimism was only adding to the problems he complained about. He realizes now that the way he can best serve the planet and humanity is by rising up and taking a stand in a way that attracts others to join the movement, rather than repel them with negativity.

As his mother, of course I am very proud of him and deeply, deeply grateful to the Chris Howard company for assisting Caleb with such a profound Breakthrough! I encouraged Caleb to go because I had a Breakthrough of my own which at a previous Chris Howard seminar which is also fully "in" me!

I've been to other seminars that were great and motivating and made me feel really good, but then when I left and got back into my life, the tools just weren't there to carry the feeling forward. Chris Howard is different. Very, very different. The results that I, Caleb and thousands of others have experienced are permanent. It's the methods he employs that make them so.

Where is all of this leading? I want you to have your breakthrough! I want your children to have theirs! I want the world to experience this level of transformation and empowerment. As an agent of change I want to inspire others so we can transform this planet into a place we're proud to leave behind to our children and grand children.

So here is my gift to you...free tickets to the next Chris Howard Breakthrough to Success. These tickets are an $895 value. I'm giving them to you for free. I want you to claim your Breakthrough! If you're holding back in any area of your life: Health, Career, Finances, Relationships, Spirituality, its your time to bust through your limitations and live the life you were destined for!

Fresh Starts, Baby Donkeys & Major Breakthroughs to Success!

Happy 2007!

I hope your holidays were everything you dreamed they'd be (and more!) and that you're feeling refreshed, revitalized, rejuvenated and ready to approach your business in a fresh and vigorous way! I want to chat about that in just a minute but first, I want to share with you some really big news for us!

We had a new baby born on Christmas morning! Our donkey Delilah (whom we rescued last September) delivered to us a brand new baby girl! Have you ever seen a baby donkey before? I hadn't and I have to say they must be about the cutest babies ever to be born on this planet! Here...see for yourself...isn't she just so adorable!?!

We've had quite a time deciding what to name her with so many holiday names to choose from. We almost settled on Noel since she was born on Christmas but a friend pointed out that it's not a good idea to name an animal a name starting with "No". Could be confusing for them. So it looks like we're calling her Holly. Just seems to suit her. But if you have any suggestions for us, we're still open! Just submit them in the comments section below.

Here's a picture of baby Holly with her proud mama, Delilah.

You know, Delilah carried that baby inside of her for 11 months! Horses and donkeys have a very long gestation period! It must have been such a relief and a joy to finally give birth to that baby! I'd say Delilah had a MAJOR breakthrough!

I wonder if you can relate? Do you have some ideas, plans, dreams or goals that have been gestating a little too long that are just bursting to be born? Are you ready for a breakthrough this year...NOW?

If Delilah could talk, she'd tell you that:

A breakthrough is something unexpected... an extraordinary occurrence
with an extraordinary outcome.

She wants you to know that:

A breakthrough starts with a creative act, a single seed, something you're committed to, something you're engaged in before it actually happens.

A breakthrough is unpredictable. It's like arriving someplace without having covered the distance between where you started and where you wound up. It's like taking a shortcut.

A breakthrough actually makes a difference in life, expanding possibilities, altering the quality of life forever!

Are you ready for your breakthrough? Isn't it time?

Delilah wants you to understand that:

A breakthrough is not something you force or make. It's not altering something that was once there or making it into something new.

A breakthrough is the moment we take what isn't and have it be.

There are all sorts of ways to have a breakthrough and they can come at the most unexpected times. The key is to be open to going beyond what you perceive as possible today.

I had a series of breakthroughs personally and professionally last year...and I'm not stopping there! I've received a glimpse of what's possible and I want more!

Chris Howard's Breakthrough to  Success Seminar was the catalyst for some MAJOR breakthroughs for me...and not just me alone. I've kept in touch with dozens of people who've experienced their own personal breakthroughs.

Now it's your turn! It's my extreme pleasure to offer you free tickets to Chris Howard's next Breakthrough to Success Weekend ($895 value) coming up this month (Jan. 07).

You can take a friend, spouse, business associate...even your kids. I'm taking my 19 year old son to the one in San Jose. Oh what I would have given to have been there when I was 19 and just starting out in life!

Grab your tickets here: www.chrishoward.com/wtpowers

Listen, I know there are all sorts of excuses why you might not go.

• It's too soon
• You're too busy
• You can't afford the airfare
• You don't have anyone to go with you...

STOP!

How about looking at the reasons why you CAN and SHOULD go for it:

• You deserve it!
• It's your turn for a Breakthrough!
• The tickets are free!
• You can't afford NOT to!
• It will be fun!
• You'll meet like minded people!
• Unforeseen assistance will appear when you decide to just Do IT!
• You'll get to meet me! ;-)  (I'll be at the one in San Jose)

You can't make a breakthrough and excuses at the same time!

www.chrishoward.com/wtpowers

Delilah wants you to know that if she can have a breakthrough, you can too!

Let me know in the comments below if you're planning on going! If you're going to be in San Jose I'd love to meet you there!

Dedicated to YOUR Breakthrough!
