Life beyond Belief
Josephine Gross, Ph.D.

THE ART OF SELLING
Set Proper Expectations
Eric Alberstson
In order to eliminate stress and enjoy sales, you need to know what to expect. Forecast your results so that you can know how many no’s you’ll likely get before you get another yes. If you can wisely pick your targets, build your offer and manage your conversion table, you can make more money while working less.

LIFESTYLE
Empower Your Space
Kristy Iris
Most successful people intuitively arrange their homes and businesses in similar ways that support their success. The objects you surround yourself with create associations that are constantly sending you supportive messages or toxic ones. Set up your business space to affect you positively rather than negatively.

THE HEART OF BUSINESS
How Many Children Can We Feed?
Phil learned early on that to have the things he wanted in life, he had to be his own boss. He liked the idea of network marketing and became extremely successful at it. But the economy changed and his company went out of business. Phil knew that if he ever operated a large organization again, he would make sure it would give back in a bigger way than anyone had ever dreamed of before. Today he is president of a new company that meets his two objectives: rewarding the field distributor and founding a charitable giving program. He is realizing his dream of making a significant impact on the world—and helping others do the same.

MASTER NETWORKER
Millionaire at Twenty-Nine
Tom Hayes was first introduced to network marketing when he was only seventeen, a senior in high school. He always had an entrepreneurial mindset and searched for business opportunities that didn’t require start-up capital. He joined a network marketing company and paid his way through college building his business part-time. By age twenty-nine, Tom had built a worldwide network and become a millionaire. Today, at age thirty, he has become an adept investor and budding philanthropist, and he’s living the life of his dreams with his wife Kaitlyn in Ridgefield, Connecticut, as he continues to expand his business globally.

MASTER NETWORKER
Surrender to the Laws of Success
When Chad was nineteen years old, he read a book that changed his life forever. That same year, he left his hometown in Utah to accomplish a two-year mission for his church, serving local communities in Louisiana. He worked during the day and read his new-found goldmine every night for the entire two years. The principles he learned paved the way for how he has created his business and his life. The book is called Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill, a personal growth classic published in 1937 at the end of the Great Depression.

INTERNET MARKETING
How to Find Profitable Markets
Howie Jacobson, Ph.D.
When starting a new business, you may ask yourself, “Will anyone visit? If so, will they buy? What location should I choose? What should my store look like?” On the Internet, the answers to these questions are shockingly easy, quick and inexpensive to obtain—if you know where to look and what to look for.

PROFESSIONALISM
What’s in a Name?
Joe Takash
There are all kinds of reasons why we forget names, but none of them matter. Your connection with people whose names you can’t recall is far weaker than with those whose names you do remember. Learning to remember names requires practice, commitment and repetition, but the results are well worth it.

PROSPECTING
Prospecting in a Changing Economy
Steve McCann
Successful prospecting in today’s economy requires that salespeople make a paradigm shift in their way of thinking. This shift happens when you release your fear of rejection and put your thoughts solely on the best intentions for your prospects. Only then will you be at ease when prospecting.

NETWORKING
Work Smarter, Not Harder
Tom Hopkins
Regardless of the business you are in, the most important skills to develop are people skills, or how to most effectively communicate with other people. Don’t let your dry-cleaner, gas station attendant or mail carrier be an anonymous face. They are people with needs that you might be able to meet with your business.

THE CLOSE
The Networker Doth Protest Too Much
John David Mann
Those who assert their cause with the greatest zeal often insult or injure those they seek to convert, and even do damage to the cause itself. It’s the core problem of emphatic assertions: they follow Newton’s laws of motion. Every push invokes its counterpush: zealous declamation creates equal and opposite resistance.
