If you already read Ann Sieg’s 7 Great Lies Of Network Marketing you will know how groundbreaking it is. You know, anyone who has seen it, raves about it.

But there is one problem with it for most marketers … it does not really reveal exactly what you need to do and how to do it, to take your business to the level of Ann’s.

However, Ann realized this herself and ever since she published it, she has been working on it.  And the result of all this work is her brand new free report, The Attraction Marketer’s Manifesto.

In this amazing (and entertaining) free report, Ann tells how she accidentally tumbled upon the secret that brought customers to her in dozens and then hundreds to order her company’s products. It’s a funny story! Before she even realized why it was working so well, her new strategy was creating a million-dollar business. In fact her business grew so quickly that her MLM company could not fulfil all of the orders she was generating!

And now in her new report she tells you exactly what she did. It is an easy technique that you can copy if you want. If you promote the same kind of products you can do the exact same thing! And even if your business is focused around another type of product, you can easily adapt what she did.

After generating so many orders that her company could not handle them, Ann Sieg found a simple trick for recruiting 50 or more people per month without ever having to call anyone … and in case you are thinking she must be somebody very special, she taught her strategies to her team and many of them were soon sponsoring 10-20 distributors per month too.

It got so that up to 90% of the leaderboard was constantly dominated by Ann’s team … and then the company stopped publishing the figures!

In The Attraction Marketer’s Manifesto, Ann Sieg covers specific ways that you can I can use to reproduce results like hers online. Most MLMers do not even know about these strategies. Even those who do are not using them in a way that works.

More and more network marketers are going online now but most of them are making a fatal mistake. They are using the same marketing style online that they used offline. Guess what? It doesn’t work, and so they are disappointed. Maybe you are one of them and you know exactly what I mean.

As is expected with anything from Ann Sieg, The Attraction Marketer’s Manifesto turns traditional network marketing techniques on their head. Get your copy today at www.marketersmanifestofree.com – before other people grab it and begin stealing your prospects!

Selling products to Mexico is easier than ever.  Mexico is the #1 importer of US products in the world.  There is a need for all types of products including food, beverages, electronics, cars, tools, candy, toys, clothing, everything.

Few companies do a great job selling in Mexico. These are companies like Proctor & Gamble and other large players.  They visit US trade shows, organizations and many companies.  I constantly have someone in San Diego visiting from Mexico to speak with me on how they can find products of all kinds to export.

Who’s looking for products?  Mainly wholesale distributors and retailers.They look for goods that are a good fit for every retail and wholesale channel.

Why do they do this?  Why are they so eager to buy US products?  Simple, they don’t have Mexican made products they can sell and they want to be the first to carry a new American product.Retailers, Wholesalers and Distributors know that if they can get their hands on new products from the USA they can make a lot of money.  After that they just restock their customer’s shelves.

The big question I’m asked by my consulting clients is: how do I get started exporting to Mexico?

To export to Mexico you can be passive or active.  You can go after the business or wait until they come looking for you, and believe me, if you have a good product, eventually they will.

—Passive Approach—

The passive approach to getting business is to make sure Mexican businesspeople can find you.  Here are a few tactics on how to reach exporters:

-You have to make sure your products are in US trade shows. You don’t have to go yourself, maybe a customer sells at trade shows or you hire a broker that goes to trade shows.

Many companies forget to place a valid phone number you can call from Mexico.You need the basic marketing materials to sell in Mexico.

-Have the right information ready.  Make sure you already know what your international price will be.  It’s usually much lower than your US price, especially if they will pay the export fees and transportation.  You also need all the product specifications like weight, dimensions, case count or pallet count.

—Active Approach—

If you are serious about selling to Mexico and would like to do it NOW you have to be more active.You have to go after the market, the distributors, wholesalers and retailers and notjust wait for them to come to you.

It is imperative that you at least have an idea about the Mexican market before you sell.The same products that you see in the USA and priced lower in Mexico?   How much are they paying to import and transport those products?You have to find out how much wholesalers and sumerparkets make?   Where could you sell your products?You have thousands of stores in Mexico including supermarkets and convenience stores?

Once you learn more about your target market and you develop your price strategy it’s time to find customers.  Visit Mexican trade shows, look for US distributors already selling in Mexico and find brokers.

After you educate yourself a bit more on the Mexican marketplace you also need to determine what kind of support your new found customers will need in Mexico.  Do you have a product that sells itself or do you need store promotion, POS (Point of Sale) material, sales commissions, or some other support.

You will not "just sell to Mexico". You will need to market your products or they will fail.  Well, this is possible.  I’ve helped companies sell products like mayonnaise, water, margarine and other products that sell themselves in this fashion.  But if your product is not a “first necessity” product or name brand, chances are you’ll either have to do some promotion or give a very good price to distributors and importers.

Jorge Olson formed the Mexico Sales Alliance to export and sell products to Mexico from the USA and from Europe.  If you would like to export your products to Mexico visit http://www.MexicoSalesAlliance.com

Spending less money on the items that we buy has become a necessity for most of the people across the country.  Experts have found that many people are spending less money on items that fall into a number of different categories, especially for items that are not considered to be necessities.  When it comes to playing a round on the golf courses, many people are considering purchasing cheap golf equipment sales instead of the more expensive equipment because the equipment works for the game and costs half as much.  Finding cheap golf equipment sales is not difficult if you know where you should be looking and what to expect from the places that sell cheap golf equipment sales.

Retail Stores

Many retail stores have cheap golf equipment sales located in the sporting good sections of their stores for the people that come into the store to look for basic items for golfing.  Typically, the selection of cheap golf equipment sales will be minimal and very few of the items offered will be more expensive equipment items because most people that are in the market for these items go to specialty retailers that will have a larger selection.  It is important to have a price range in mind before shopping for golf equipment so that you do not end up spending more than you can afford on items that you will not be using very often.

Online Retailers

One of the best places to find cheap golf equipment sales is on the internet, where thousands of different stores are available in the comfort of your own home.  Some online stores are able to obtain brand name equipment at a fraction of the price that you would see in physical stores, which makes them a great deal for price and quality.  Purchasing cheap golf equipment sales from an online retailer can save up to 50% off of the normal retail price of the equipment for high quality items that are delivered directly to your home.

There are also lots of online websites that hold auctions for different types of items, including cheap golf equipment sales.  Some of these auction websites see thousands of visitors each day all looking for a great deal on the thousands of products that the website has up for auction so acting fast if you find great cheap golf equipment sales is very important if you would like to secure the item as you own.  The equipment being sold can be new or used, which is generally listed in the golf equipment review that details the information about the equipment for sale, and bidding on the equipment allows the person to stay within their price range.

Resale Stores

Another place to find cheap golf equipment sales is resale store that purchases sporting goods from people that are either upgrading the equipment or giving up the sport.  The quality of the equipment purchased from these retailers may be better than the quality of cheap golf equipment sales that is found at other locations because this equipment may have been purchased by golf enthusiasts that truly cared about the sport and took good care of their equipment.  These golf equipment items are priced inexpensively because they have previously been used and the store would like them to move quickly to make room for more merchandise.
