MICRODERMABRATORS OR..... RODAN + FIELDS???

The following info is from a site on the web (in all fairness, pls read to the end):

Why pay tens of thousands of dollars for something that doesn't cost that much to make? Microdermabrators have been selling extremely well in the U.S. since 1997 and due to this phenomenal sales growth the market has been flooded with "me too" microdermabrators.

"Here is what you need to know. During the high point of the microderm growth phase in the U.S. there were three major manufactures; DermaGenesis, PowerPeel and Aesthetic Technologies / ATI (Parisian Peel). It was estimated that 1 out of every 3 practitioners using a microdermabrator at this time was using a system from one of these three manufacturers. Since then it is estimated that there are over 40 different manufacturers of microdermabrators trying to sell you a system claiming theirs is better than the previous one.

Here is a little secret - they all do the same thing in the end!

We have made it easy for you. Don't spend your hard earned money on "bells and whistles." We have teamed up with the former manufacturer of the DermaGenesis Microdermabrasion system to bring you wholesale priced systems. Special Deals for our customers!

TheLaserTrader has a great deal for you! For a limited time if you buy a laser or IPL system from us you can get a complete microdermabrator system for just $2,850!!!

Here's what you get -

Brand New system - The Skin Science Microderm

Regular Price $12,000

Unit comes with 25 Procedure Packs which include 2 handpieces, 4 filters, tubing and 12 lbs. of Aluminum Oxide crystals.

* for an additional $495 you add 50 more Procedure Packs (for a total of 75 procedures).

Now with one system you can perform both procedures (Crystal or Crystal-FREE)!"

That's the end of THEIR commerical - Now Mine -

No wonder Doctors charge thousands of dollars to have mircro dermabrasion done. No wonder your skin looks like you were sandblasted - you were! please note - aluminum oxide is an abrasive material used in sandblasting!!!! That is what is used in these machines.

Dr. Rodan and Dr. Fields have created a micro dermabrasion system YOU CAN DO YOURSELF IN YOUR OWN HOME - for sooooo much less money!!!

Micrdermabrasion Paste polishes your skin with a sugar and salt scrub featuring vitamins C and E. Improves cell turnover and leaves skin silky smooth.

One 4.2oz jar costs $77.00 and gives you 25 - 50 applications, depending on how much you use each time. THAT'S $1.50 TO $3.00 PER SCRUB!!! Some of my customers, using the micro dermabrasion paste 2-3 times a week use a little less and get 75 scrubs per jar - that's about $1.00 per scrub!! Compare that with the above system or with what you pay at your Dermatologist!

I can show you how to get this product wholesale and bring down your per scrub use to less than a dollar!

The online system above is $9.90 per procedure PLUS the thousands you spend for the machine!
DO IT AT HOME THEIR WAY......OR DO IT AT HOME THE RODAN AND FIELDS WAY.

JUST DO IT!

Most of the things that hold you back do so with your cooperation. When you choose to stop giving power to your limitations, many of them disappear. There are things you assume you never could do. But how many of those negative assumptions have you actually tested?


It could be that the biggest obstacle standing between you and your most treasured dream is your own thinking. It could very well be that the main thing holding you back is your belief that you cannot move forward. Imagine what would happen if you were to let go of that belief. What if you stopped focusing on what you think you can and what you think you can't do?

What if you simply started making the effort, each day, each moment, to move toward that dream? You'd quickly realize that many of the obstacles you imagined, are not even there. Yes, there are always challenges, and yet they are rarely as difficult or imposing as you imagine. Step boldly forward to meet them, and you'll find yourself moving successfully though them.

Without a doubt, you have what it takes to reach whatever place you choose to go. Just get started and you'll know.
 
Looking for a new direction in your life? Want to work towards a financially secure future? Want to make those dreams have a chance of actually happening? I want to help you. I want to give you the gift of my time to help you change your future. I am here to help a few more people. Not everyone will qualify for the time I am eager to give.

TEEN IS ACNE FREE!!!!!

"My beautiful son, Maxwell, is in the throes of puberty. He is 14 years old and was being eaten alive by acne!! He started using the new UNBLEMISH regimen and his face has gone from mine FIELDS to Rodan and FIELDS. After 4 weeks his forehead is as smooth as a baby's bottom!! He was beaming from ear to ear. Max is about 95% acne free and has NO scars. I must say we have landed on friendly territory!"

-Teresa Hargis ,Consultant from Dana Point CA

My husband, Bill, has had a very large blackhead on his face that for over 20 years has accumulated gunk. He would squeeze it often and I can't tell you how awful it was to watch that stuff come out of his face! The blackhead spot was red and bruised from years of  squeezing - yet it continued to accumulate. Three weeks ago I started him on Rodan and Fields UNBLEMISH. OMG! That area is no longer red - there is NO blackhead - IT IS GONE!!! Oh yes, he is continuing to use it and we have even started using it on his back. Even though I am a consultant and believe in the products 100%, this was amazing to see the transformation after years and years. - Judith Rudderham, Consultant from Spring Hill, Tn.

Readers - you have to try Rodan and Fields products. They Work!

TIP #21 - BE EXCEPTIONAL

If you want to be exceptional, then be the exception. Forget about what most people would do in a given situation, and do what is best, what is right, what makes the most positive contribution.


Exceptional performance is the result of exceptional thinking. Instead of merely reacting to circumstances and events, use the awesome power of your mind to develop a thoughtful, effective response.

To be exceptional, be yourself. You have something valuable and original to contribute to every situation.

Exceptional accomplishments are authentic accomplishments. Allow your priorities and your actions to be based on the values, purposes and vision of life that you feel most intensely at the center of your being.

Exceptional performance is meaningful performance. Look beyond the temporary and superficial, and put your energy into creating lasting value that serves a real purpose.

You were born to be exceptional, to blaze a trail into territory where no one has ever gone before. Choose today, and every day, to let your own unique, exceptional light shine brightly for all to see.

TIP #20 - ACHIEVE

Get completely clear about your objective. If all you have is a vague idea, then work on fleshing it out so it becomes detailed and specific. Act now. Opportunities do not wait for conditions to be perfect.


Persist in your efforts. Make all of your work count for something by seeing it through to the finish.

Be thankful for the challenges and enjoy working through them. For they are where the real value is created.

Connect your goal to a meaningful purpose. When you're clear about why, you'll surely be able to take care of how.

Every frustration, every dissatisfaction you feel is really an urge to achieve. Follow those urges all the way through, and make the positive difference that is your destiny.

TIP #19 - IN A RECRUITING SLUMP? GRAB A LADDER.

I hope you are having an awesome, fantastic, amazing day!Remember that no matter how bad anything might seem in your life there are always people who are far less fortunate than you. Always count your blessings!

If your success in network marketing is not coming at the pace you hoped, remember one thing. The only way you can fail in this industry is if you give up. Every day you are growing and learning and discovering the leader in you.

With all the hype and craziness in this industry we often forget the power of what can happen in a 5 year period. So many people are so focused on making something happen overnight that they lose their momentum when it doesn't happen fast enough for you.  I have some good news for you that just might help you to see the bigger picture here and realize the opportunity at hand!

Someone took the time to show me this and it changed my whole mindset. Let's call this the 5 year plan...
I want you to think about working for yourself...you have 1 person responsible for your income and there is no leverage in that.

Let's say that after a year in MLM you show a bunch of people your opportunity and only 5 people really get it. Now at the end of one year you have 5 people responsible for your income rather than just 1! Let's say those 5 go on to find 5 that "get it" by the end of the 2nd year..you now have 25 people responsible for your
income.Let's continue this over a 5 year period and see what happens..see the diagram below

Years Working for yourself Building an MLM business...Number of people responsible for your income if you just get 5 people the 1st year and those people get 5, etc, so on and so on:


1...  5

2 ... 25

3... 125

4...  625

5....  3125 people responsible for your income!!!!

So after 5 years you would have over 3,000 people responsible for your income rather than 1 person! This can easily mean a residual income of $15,000 a month which will keep coming in even if you go sit on
the beach! Not a bad deal considering most people will still have 1person responsible for their income after 5 years.

When you look at it this way you realize that you are just looking for a few key players each year. This is why prospecting and recruiting is key in building a large organization. One of the most effective ways to work through your numbers to get to the really serious people is by creating an effective marketing funnel system on the Internet.

You will be able to leverage your time and expose large volumes of people to your business day in and day out and only end up  talking to the serious people and the action takers.

Bottom line - grab a ladder - climb out of that slump and make a 5 year plan.

Want a business that can produce this kind of residual income and have the energy to work it? click on the title above, then give me a call.

60 DAYS - MY NAKED FACE

The picture entitled My Naked Face shows me 60 days using the Rodan and Fields regimens with ONLY peptide powder on my face (in fact if you look real close you can see that I didn't apply it very well. I will do better next time) with some mascara. Look at the beginning photo and then compare. It is so nice to just wear the peptide powder. My face is getting treated and my cell phone doesn't have that ugly gunk on it after each call.

Peptide powder  - get some today.

60 DAYS - SKIN SCARE TO SKIN CARE

Now let's not be critical. Yes, I still have spots - all kinds of spots. But, give me a break - scroll down to see my face at the beginning of all this new skin scare - that's right - skin scare. My face was a mess - then I started Skin Care with Rodan and Fields products. REVERSE AND UNBLEMISH with a little SOOTHE now and then. Yes, I have a long ways to go, but like I said in an earlier post - I have years of sun damage to REVERSE (sorry, had to throw in a little pitch there for one of my products).

You just have to start using this product - it works!

TIP #18 - HOW TO BE A GOOD FACEBOOK SOCIAL NETWORKER

These notes are taken from a webinar presented by Doug Firebaugh - a genius in networking with a few of my own thrown in. Face it, whether you are in business or not, you network. Getting together with your friends for coffee, a drink, to shop, to shoot pool or watch a football game, are all examples of networking. Do you ever tell your friends about a great movie, a restaurant that opened, sales somewhere? This is network marketing at its best - giving a personal referral about something. So, here we go - How to be a Good Facebook Social Networker - basically - how to be a good friend on facebook.

I have to confess and give credit where credit is due. My daughter, Shannon Rudderham Kemp, taught me how to get on Facebook and was very patient with me while I learned the difference between a Wall, Home, Message, Share, Link, privacy, etc etc. I still ask her things.  Since then I have grabbed onto FB and now could almost be called a nerd. Yet, I feel like I am still on the edge of what there is to learn about communicating thru social networking... globally. Our world is changing fast - get with the changes or be left with your pencil and eraser and stamps. Off the soapbox and onto today's post.

1. Go on Facebook daily - what kind of friend are you if you don't talk with your friends.
2. Study your Home Page  - comment on everything, look at your requests and act on them.
Click between Status Updates and News Feeds - News Feeds happen more often than Status Updates.
3. Your Profile - click on this and then on WALL. Look at all the comments and what your friends have done - comment on your friends activity and comments.
4. Look for New Friends - look at your current friends list of friends - add some you know or want to  know. Go to the Search box in the upper right and put in someone's name. And, answer your Friend Requests and then thank them for "friending" you.
5. Join Groups. Same Search box - put in something you are interested in and then click on a few - find some groups to join. This is a great way to make new friends.
6. Your Personal Info - add to it, write stuff, add pictures. Face it - we are on Facebook to be seen, tell about ourselves, to learn about others. It is a fabulous social medium.
7. Watch what you say. So many people use FB to air their differences, comment negatively on things, and even tear someone else down. C'mon people, we are all adults. This world has enough places for all that petty stuff. Help keep FaceBook a fun interesting and learning place. If you need to send a message to someone - privately - click under their picture on Send a Message. It goes to their inbox. What you send and what they reply thru the inbox is Private just between the two of you.
8. Notifications - bottom right is a small TV screen with a red number- click it. The word Notifications will come up and under it are all the communications in a nutshell. click on See All and you can click on them and comment. You can set your notifications to what you want to see.
9. Give Value to your friends on FaceBook. Make them laugh, let them cry with you, honor people, help new people, share. tell about your business, find new business partners, sell and promote, the list of positive things you can do on FaceBook is endless.

I hope you enjoyed this very short mini course on Facebook. Check out Doug Firebaugh's website and facebook page. He offers so much info it is mind boggeling. Don't have time? Everyone has a little time every day to connect.  If not, go sharpen your pencil.

If you didn't get my skincare tip of the day - sleep on your back and reduce facial wrinkles.

TIP #17 - SOCIAL NETWORKING ON FACEBOOK

I listened to a webinar hosted by Doug Firebaugh - a genius with social networking.(passionfire.com) The next few posts will be a summary of what I learned.  He currently is maxed on the number of friends he can have on Facebook, but google him to see what he has to offer. Hopefully, this will help some of you in your business - or maybe you will want to be a part of my team on Rodan and Fields. Yep - had to get that little commercial in. LOL.

First you must remember that in Network Marketing - the work networking comes BEFORE Marketing. In previous posts you can find some notes about getting to know people before you pitch them. In Social Networking, please please remember social networking is all about getting to know each other. Whether you ever "pitch" your FB friends or not, they all have value and they all are part of your new social nework.

There are currently over 200 million users on Facebook - worldwide. Our accounts are capped at 5,000 friends. This is a huge pool of people. Your account may be capped at 5,000, but multiply that by all your friends and you can see that you have joined a very large social network!

The secret to recruiting on FB is to NOT recruit. Say what? That's right. FB is about relationship building. Find new friends and let them help you in whatever way is most comfortable for them. And the reverse is important as well - help your friends. If they are in business for themselves, promote their business. You never  know when you need a good plumber, handyman, photographer (hint hint - that's ME!), car repair, or even interact to find a good restaurant or boutique.  Help your friends. They will in turn help you. Look for helpers.

Personally, I have found some new friends on FB and have been able to reconnect with some old friends. Connect with people on FB. Look at their profile - it was put there as a window to their soul. Converse with your friends. Don't only post a business commercial (more on that in another post), but be interested in them.
Be a friend they value. Look at how you can pour into their lives and change their lives with your friendship.

TIP #16 - PAY ATTENTION TO LIFE

A big part of achieving success is simply paying attention. Life has so very much to tell you when you take the time to listen. The natural reaction to pain is to resent it and to get away from it as quickly as possible. Yet when you pay close attention, there is wisdom and value to be found in even the most painful, unpleasant experiences.

As you go through each day, your mind is filled with all sorts of things that you're thinking and saying to yourself. Choose to regularly quiet those thoughts, to just listen, to look, to pay attention. Pay attention and you'll discover incredible opportunities in even the most mundane circumstances.

Pay attention to the way the world works and you'll find powerful strategies for improving your own performance. Pay attention and it can quickly bring great value, wisdom and effectiveness into every corner of your life.

TIP #15 - APPLAUSE PLEASE

Any endeavor may be tough in the beginning. Accept this. You must believe in yourself. Initially, critics may feel free to ridicule your ideas and goals as foolish and unrealistic. When you ultimately succeed, everyone will claim to have been on your team from the beginning. Take action and persist. Applaud those who try, because the first step is often the toughest. Applaud the newcomer.

Yes, this is probably one of my shortest posts, but a much needed one. If you are in network marketing, you know the value of prospecting and then signing someone onto your team. This new consultant is a newbie and starting any endeavor is hard. They need your help, guidance, mentoring and support. Help them persist. This is their first day and the good news is - there will never be another first day. Applaud the newcomer.
