Go With The Best

My company has a true partnership with its distributors.

The compensation plan is 50/50. A full 50% on every product is paid back to the distributors who participate in building a business with our 8 year old health & wellness company.

There is NO BREAKAGE and we have 9 level dynamic compression. (That alone is worth its weight.)

Our world-class, category-creating products are not to be dismissed or taken lightly. And, neither are our highly expreienced, honest and caring founders. They have done such a great job, our company was debt-free in the thrid month of business. Since that time we have done over 2 Billion in sales and broken more growth records than I can keep up with.

The best two aspects of my company are:

WE WILL NEVER CHANGE THE COMPENSATION PLAN (what you build now will be there for future generations to come) and our philanthropic endeavors have saved countless lives and provided priceless help to millions of people all over the world.

Making A Difference by Gidget Giardino

Part 3 in a Series on Becoming a Philanthropreneur, 
also known as Social Entrepreneur or Social Good
Becoming A Social Entrepreneur and Making A Difference

• Is your life lead by you or by others?
• Do you want to make a positive difference in the world? 
• Are you inspired to create change?

All these questions are important ones. If you do not know how to take control of your life and make the changes necessary to become a Social Entrepreneur then you're in luck. Because that is what I am going to share with you. Exciting, huh? Well, maybe you're not as excited as I am (yet) because you have not seen the BIG picture.  Let me help you visualize your new life. 

The Ultimate Pay It Forward Project

You've probably seen the movie Pay It Forward with Haley Joel Osment, Kevin Spacey and Helen Hunt. In this epic movie a young boy is presented by his teacher a class assignment of finding a way to make a positive difference in the world. His assignment is taken to a whole new level when he makes the decision to put his project into action instead of just putting it on paper and getting a grade. His plan is to help three people get or do something they cannot get or do for themselves and in turn these three must go out and "Pay It Forward," that is, they must each help three other people without expecting anything in return. And this cycle is to be repeated over and over again. The beauty of the project is not only how many people receive a special unsolicited gift, the beauty is the rewarding feeling of the giver and the number of how many people are positively affected by "Paying It Forward." The idea of doing so much Social Good is magical. Imagine the possibilities and take action!


That is what we do on a grand scale, with an added twist. That twist is both the giver and the receiver are rewarded AND there is an added element of giving which makes this the Ultimate Pay It Forward Project. 


How Does It Work?  


Step One: Decide you want to make a positive change in the world one person at a time by making a commitment to feed children who are literally starving to death and desperately need your help. 


Step Two: Make a second commitment to share this project with lots of people and have at least 3 people join with you on this major project of Social Good within the next 30 days. 


Step Three: Continue to share this project with others and be sure your Pay It Forward numbers are at least progressing by three. For example, you get three people to join you this month and those three get three to join them in the next 30 days, and so on and so forth. 


Everyone involved receives a reward based on their individual participation level. The key to the entire project is ACTION. Without action there is no project and children continue to die by the thousands.

Becoming a Social Entrepreneur for Social Good is not only something to be proud of .... it is a necessary first step to wiping out world hunger. Join this worthy cause today and become a Social Entrepreneur. 

Become a Philanthropreneur by Gidget Giardino

Philanthropreneur -

People creating positive changes in the world through a business venture that promises economic gain.

Imagine being part of something bigger than you, something that will change the world. 

Forget what you know about traditional business. This is a paradigm shift in thinking that requires you to have an open mind along with a willingness to learn something new.  Warren Buffet, Bill Gates, and many others including former president Bill Clinton, believe we must look to ourselves, and not the government, in order to fight against poverty and build a sustainable economic future. 

A new approach to solving social problems is needed. This new approach is Venture Philanthropy, also know as Philanthrocapitalism. 

Venture philanthropy is characterized by:

• Willingness to experiment and "try new approaches".
• Focus on measurable results: donors and grantees assess progress based on mutually determined benchmarks.
• Readiness to shift funds between organizations and goals based on tracking those measurable results.
• Giving financial, intellectual, and human capital.
• Funding on a multi-year basis - typically a minimum of 3 years, on average 5-7 years.
• Focus on capacity building, instead of programs or general operating expenses.
• High involvement by donors with their grantees. For example, some donors will take positions on the boards of the non-profits they fund.

So, here is what we know; Our economy is in crisis, government is "trying" to come up with solutions, people from all walks of life are loosing their jobs, there aren't enough jobs to go around, there is a lack of options for the average person to get out of debt.

Here is what you can do to take control of your personal situation, while doing some real good in the world: Become a Philanthropreneur.

It is more simple than it sounds. 

In my next few blog posts I will be laying out the specifics of what to do and how it works. 

Imagine being part of something bigger than you, something that will change the world.

Stevie Wonder Is A Financial Genius by Gidget Giardino

Remember Stevie Wonder’s hit, “I just called to say I love you.  I just called to say how much I care.   And I mean it from the bottom of my heart.”    Can you imagine everyone eager and ready to talk to people every day because they care?


That is exactly what this business is about. The willingness to show someone you care by offering them a look see. It's much more than recommending a good book you've read or good restaurant you've enjoyed. This is the ability to help others in a way more grand than that.


Just think, if you shared something with someone and it positively changed their life forever, you'd feel an immense sense of elation. The satisfaction of knowing you helped by being the messenger of an opportunity with perks for improved health and financial growth is something I hope you will become familiar with soon.


Does this sound good to you? Any of it? If so, drop me a line or give me a call. An introduction is necessary. And, yes, from the bottom of my heart, I do care.

Make Money Doing Something You Love

If you need to create a legitimate stream of income and can't seem to find a job, you may want to try something new. There are more ways to bring in cash than to work for minimum wage at the nearest grocery store. In the article below you'll see what a few college graduates did. And, if what they did is more than you can handle (or if you can't raise the $100,000 needed) then take a free look at my industry.                                                                      Either way, you've got to do something.

 

Motivation and necessity drive new entrepreneurs BY EILEEN SMITH

Eric Heinbockel graduated from Columbia University in 2008, poised for a career in finance.

His lesson in economics was only beginning. Heinbockel couldn't find a job.

"I had interviews on the days Bear Stearns and Lehman Bros. went under," he recalls. "Nobody got hired in finance on those days."

Heinbockel's sweet dreams of an office on Wall Street melted like chocolate in a hot car.

So he decided to create his own job making custom candy bars.

"We are seeing a lot more entrepreneurs who are looking to start businesses either because they are unemployed or underemployed," says Gary Rago, director of the NJ Small Business Development Center at Rutgers University-Camden.

The center helps about 600 people start and grow companies each year. Alumni include Heinbockel, who launched his businessChocomize with college chums Nick LaCava and Fabian Kaempfer.

The Ivy Leaguers enrolled in a class on writing a business plan taught by Bob Palumbo, a principal at Stokes Creative Group in Vincentown and a Rutgers business counselor.

"What struck me was they already had a good business plan," Palumbo recalls. "They were clearly serious about starting a business and had done their homework."

Because they had no collateral, the partners turned to relatives rather than banks, borrowing $100,000 to buy molds and machinery, the bulk of it from Heinbockel's grandparents.

With no spouses, kids or mortgages, the trio -- all 23 -- figured they were ideally positioned to take a risk. To keep expenses down, they moved into the basement of Heinbockel's parents' house in Cherry Hill.

"That cliche of the college kid who can't find a job and lives in Mom and Dad's basement isn't really a cliche," he says.

"On your own'

Older workers also are creating their own jobs, Rago says. In addition to longtime business relationships, older entrepreneurs often capitalize on severance packages or equity in their homes.

"It is not unusual for someone who is 50 or above to come up with a great idea of their own, especially if they have been laid off several times, were making a good living and are having trouble finding another position at that income level," he says.

A great idea for any age is Network Marketing if, and only if, you are working with the right company. Explore the options. Give me a call. Gidget Giardino 954-873-3191

Learn From The Giraffes How To Do Network Marketing by Gidget Giardino

 Standing the tallest of all, giraffes see obstacles and opportunities while they are still far off. They are so peacefully hard-working we sometimes forget how powerful they are, how swiftly they can move.


Humans can learn a lot from this magnificent creature. We don't have to be the tallest, but we do have to open our eyes and, more importantly, our minds to the opportunities which may in turn destroy the obstacles in our life. 



It is entirely possible to be peacefully hard-working. In most cases, the chaos is not created by others but by our own minds working overtime. We, as humans, tend to complicate even the simplest tasks.  


Take Network Marketing, the idea is a simple one. You build a business of referring others to a particular product. The more people you refer the more profits you earn. Not exactly rocket science. So, why is it then that most people who join a Network Marketing company don't turn a huge profit? It's because they over-complicate the simple task of referring. 


Think about it this way. If you went to a new restaurant in town that just opened and had a delicious meal with great service, you  would not think twice about telling your friends and family about your wonderful experience, right? Well, if you want to succeed in Network Marketing just be honest about your experience and share it with others. 

Looking For a Way To Make Money? by Gidget Giardino

After a long break, I am finally back.

Over the past month I've been busy coming to the rescue of various people and have worn many hats in doing so. I won't bore you with the details, but I will say this... It's been a really long time since I've had a 5 year old in the house to care for. :)

Now, it is time to get back to business. Business for me is like having lots of friends in lots of different places because I work from home and the people I work with are all over the globe. Every day I get in touch with people who want or need to improve their life. That is where I come in.

Since the recession most people have expressed major interest in making money. Some need to work from home because they've lost their job and can't seem to find another one anywhere else. Several are looking at their retirement options and have realized they don't have any. Others just need a little extra to stash away in case something unexpected pops up.

If building a business from home is something you've thought about it makes perfect sense to get the facts from people who are actually doing it. Don't ask your neighbor who retired from some corporate job ten years ago. Don't ask the friend who is constantly broke or the friend who does nothing but complain.

Ask someone who will be straight about the facts, give all the details, and help you with what YOU need. ASK ME.

Improve Your Business

Stay Ahead Of The Curve

by “Independent Executive” Chuck Boyce

It’s often difficult for entrepreneurs and business owners to look beyond the hectic day-to-day pace of their business responsibilities.  Time is at a premium; and so are money and resources.
Any small business coach or executive business coach, however, will tell you that not looking past today can cost you plenty tomorrow.

There’s an old saying:  “Stay ahead of the curve.”  Translation?  Keep your eyes open for change before it happens – so you’ve already thought through how you’re going to make critical adjustments before it’s too late.

Here are a few suggestions on how you can stay ahead of the curve, no matter what your business is:

• SCHEDULE IT AND SET IT IN STONE

Many smart entrepreneurs will carve out a few hours every week (Friday afternoons, when everything is winding down, are often popular) to review their business operation from a “Big Picture” perspective.  This requires a certain objectivity and distance to do correctly.  If you do put this into practice, always make sure you end each session with some “Action Points” to apply to your business that will help it react to current marketplace conditions.

• GET OUT OF YOUR BUSINESS BUBBLE

Everyone wants to think there’s nowhere to go but up in their particular business category.  When they associate with others in the same industry, there’s often a little bit of groupthink going on – everyone reinforces each other’s optimism. Let’s recall a few years ago when the entire financial community bet everything that real estate prices would never, ever take a substantial drop.  To avoid the echo chamber, seek out other opinions from those in other industries on how they view your business sector – and if they feel it’s headed for growth or rough times.

• DO YOUR RESEARCH

In case you weren’t aware, the internet isn’t just for shopping or playing games – it’s also the most amazing source of information in the history of mankind.  It’s easy to find reputable sites that analyze current business trends, as well as suggesting new ways of both saving money and making it.   If you don’t already seek out this kind of valuable (and generally free) business advice, put it on your to-do list.

Doing your research also involves attending seminars and trade shows where you can network as well as catch up on cutting-edge trends.  The more you expose yourself to, the more well-rounded you are in terms of running your business.  That ultimately makes you quick with the right response whenever business conditions change or a new opportunity crops up.

Want To Earn Money by Gidget Giardino

Want to earn an extra $500.00 - $1,000 before the holiday bills come due?

It's easier than you'd think. And, best of all you don't have to do it by yourself.

Work with the best team now and make this year end on a positive note.

Happiness really is the joy of achievement.

Where I Began - Where I Am Now by Gidget Giardino

The people viewing my page that already know me might say I've been lucky. Lucky because my first business was a family-owned full service florist, and, so, I lucked out on not having to choose a career path. It was expected that I would take over the family business when the time came. The good news is they were right. The bad news is, well, there really is no bad news.

My friends would tell you I am a hard worker, very friendly and caring, quite dependable yet silly at times; I like to have fun and make people laugh. They would also tell you I love children. In fact, I love children so much I decided to start a family early. Very early. I was a Teenage Mom.

Pregnant at 15; I delivered my first son at age 16. Richard was my reason for everything I did in life. I was young enough that the thought never occurred to me there were things I could not do. While pregnant I worked two jobs; I was a file clerk for a group of four Jewish doctors in Hollywood, FL, Mon.-Fri. and I worked at my florist located in Fort Lauderdale, FL in the evenings and on Saturdays. (We were closed Sundays, thank God.)

I quickly proved I had what it took to manage our florist and after Richard was born I worked six days a week with him right by my side. It was perfect for me. I never liked school (I am dyslexic, if you see any typos - just laugh and move on so going to college was NOT going to happen.

My second son, Anthony, came two weeks after my 20th birthday. (Yikes! Another Taurus!) I still had the Superwoman mentality. It was typical for me to attend conventions regularly having to visit the ladies room to breast feed or change diapers. I was good at juggling my family’s needs with my own desires. Growing my florist business was important to me. You could honestly say, I am stubborn through and through. No one really ever told me no. Probably because they knew I wouldn't listen.

Two years later I was divorced with three sons aged 5 years, 2 years and my youngest was three months old. Everyone thought I was bonkers for calling my marriage quits, but I knew I could not have been saner. You see, my youngest son Shawn is a special needs child. My rationale was with three little kids I could not afford to waste time on a relationship that was not able to be fixed. It was tough to do it alone yet at the same time a huge weight was lifted. You see, I was still in control of my future.

Over the years I really enjoyed working with children. For 14 years I held leadership positions in my sons' Cub Scout Packs and Boy Scout Troops, as well as volunteered in their schools. Giving time volunteering at our local wildlife center, our local American Cancer Society fundraisers, local Entrepreneurs Clubs and Kiwanis Club gave me great pride.

Now, let's skip ahead to the present day. My two oldest sons are making their own lives and have been doing a really great job; I am so proud of them. Recently I sold my florist which I owned and operated in Fort Lauderdale, FL for over 25 years. And, for the fist time in my life, I moved. (Deep breath.) Today I live in central Florida with my fiancé', Mark, my 17 year old Autistic son, Shawn, and my 4 Dachshunds, 4 kitty cats and a bunny rabbit. However, I am not retired. Not yet. I still have a lot to give of myself to others and contribute to society.

Several years ago I started a second business primarily working with stay-at-home moms. What I do is teach them how to work from home and be successful. While I do work with lots of different kinds of people, not just mothers who work from home, my passion is children, so, I chose to focus this page on helping moms take care of their families by working on a part time or full time basis. I teach them that they can have it all. They design the life they want to have; I help them to achieve it.

This makes me very happy. .   .
