It's here...

Alright, I did it! I posted my first rough, unedited video on YouTube! Here's the video for your viewing pleasure:

My daughter spilled juice all over my camcorder. I thought it survived. The green stripe at the bottom says otherwise! :o

I would love to hear your thoughts on this. Do you think you could get healthy by sprinkling a little powder on your family's food? It seems almost too easy, but consider this: It took 18 years of research and development and over 20 million dollars for this product to be available! 

Nutriverus is a multivitamin/multimineral/antioxidant/glyconutrient powder that can be added to virtually any food. I've put it into yogurt, ranch dressing, on egg cups, on meatloaf, sprinkled over vegetables, in salads, on fish, on chicken breasts and in protein shakes to name a few. I did all of this without telling my family to see their reactions (this is what you get with a nerdy scientist mom in the house!) My husband noticed no difference in the food, but after I did it for a week he told me he felt better and had more energy. My kids (who are very picky eaters) only noticed it in plain vanilla yogurt (but when I added a dash of cinnamon they no longer noticed it) and ate it without issue in every other food and beverage I put it into. 

Some additional benefits: 

-When you get this every month, just like a vitamin at the store, you're also saving the life of a malnourished child in critical condition around the world for that month

-You're giving your body the nutrients it needs to heal and repair itself, the common side effects of which are feeling great and having more energy

-When you try it and see amazing results and tell your friends, you can get a 25% discount on your own product. Tell 4 friends, nourish 5 kids and get your product free

How cool is that? If you're interested in helping me save 50 kids by Thanksgiving of 2012, e-mail me at mannateamkratos (at) gmail.com and let's change the world together!!

On Power

Do you know what the most powerful tool in the entire world is? Do you have any guesses?

Money?

Prestige?

Credibility?

Popularity?

Let me tell you something: the things listed above are effects of the most powerful tool in the world, but they are not the tool itself. This tool allows a person, no matter what their personal situation is, to pick themselves up by the bootstraps and become a success. This tool is the only avenue to true health and wellness. This tool is also the only avenue to financial success. Once you have the proper information loaded into this tool, no one can ever take it away from you. It belongs only to you, to do with as you please.

What is this tool? It's your mind.

Your mind is the single most powerful thing in your possession. Your mind allows you to overcome boundaries of not having enough money, being too skinny or too fat, healing from physical or emotional abuse and being free of stress.

The key to maximizing the potential of your mind as a powerful tool is to find the right information and input it. Once you have those things working together you can achieve whatever your desire is.

I've been intentionally vague because I don't know what your desires are. I know what mine are: I want to be able to take care of my 2 beautiful little daughters. I want to keep myself and my husband healthy. I want to feed 50 kids in a third world country by November 2012. And once I've accomplished that--and I will--I'll set a new goal and crush that one too.

Why? How?

Because I know mentally that I am all in. I have the information in my brain necessary to be successful. Not only that, but I love to help others and share what I know with them. If you're struggling to be successful, shoot me an e-mail. If you have a goal that you'd like to meet, let's get together and talk it over.

I'm willing to help you if you're willing to help yourself.

Presentations part 1

Hey there,

Today the topic most on my mind is: presenting to other people. When most people hear the word "present," they picture someone in a smart suit with a pie chart or Powerpoint standing in a conference room. And that is one way you can present, but in our industry, whether you call it Social Entrepreneurship, Network Marketing, Direct Sales or MLM, presenting is better understood as "giving information." I prefer to call it that for 2 reasons: #1. It's less intimidating to the client, #2. It's less intimidating to the new people and #3. It's non-threatening.

If I called you and imitated what in my mind would be a salesperson-type pitch, I might say something like, "Hello John Doe, this is Lizi and I had noticed you inquired about our services. When is a good time for you to schedule a presentation?"

Mind you, that isn't a terrible way to go about things if that is the way you talk. However, I don't talk like that.

I talk like this: "Hey John Doe, how's it going? Awesome man, listen, I saw you were curious about what my team was doing in your area and I always want to be available to answer any questions you might have. What time is good for us to get to know each other and kick around some information?"

Is that threatening? Do I come off as "here's 15 minutes of my time and then I don't care about you anymore?"

NO! I want people to know I care about them--because I genuinely care about them! And if I hear anyone badmouthing a prospect, I let them know that their thinking and their speech will propel them to failure--they're doomed before they even start because of their poor attitude.

Instead of that, honor the person you're speaking to. Really pay attention to what they say, what they want out of life and who they are.

So, the takeaway: presenting doesn't have to be scary. It is literally a time you and your prospect are setting aside to get to know each other and to share personal goals.

Tune in tomorrow and we'll go over the nitty gritty details of being yourself during a presentation.
