I’m a member of the DSWA (Direct Selling Womans Alliance) and just love what they offer to their members. I absolutely love their ELITE Leadership Training Course and Principle Centered Coaching! They offer all kinds of training to Direct Sellers, training and educational materials, conference calls, archives, and so much more.

I also receive the DSWA Newsletter and participate in local Success Circle monthly meetings (which are a lot of fun). If you haven’t explored what the DSWA offers you may want to, I highly recommend joining. I can’t tell you how much I and my business have benefitted from all they offer.

They also have the nicest assortment of books that you can use with your downline - of particular recommendation, the “Build it Big” books!

Here is an article from one of the DSWA newsletters…

Sizzling Summer Sales!

Customers and prospects are yearning to add a little excitement in their lives - especially during the summer. Make sure your shows, parties, and team events deliver an extra element of fun by incorporating creative ideas like these.

Make Your shows this Summer “Sizzle” by adding FUN!
By Jane Deuber

1.Team Bonding BBQ:
Create a sense of unity by inviting team members and their families to a backyard BBQ. Have everyone bring a dish to make preparation a breeze and set aside some time near the end to recognize the spouses and children of your team members. Want to add a little humor? Why not present a ?¢‚Ǩ?ìFrozen Dinner Award?¢‚Ǩ¬ù to the husband of the team member who held the most shows during the previous month? Take this opportunity to let all spouses know their support is crucial to their partner?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢s success. Make the kids feel special by presenting each with a special ribbon. Explain when they help around the house and ?¢‚Ǩ?ìcheer Mom on?¢‚Ǩ¬ù they are helping to make her business a great success.

2.Pedicure in the Park:
For those of you who offer a line of products that include pedicure items, gather guests around a baby swimming pool in your backyard for a summer time pedicure party! It?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢s fun and unexpected. While they soak their toes in the warm water you can share additional beauty products for the face, hands, and body.

3.Playtime at the Park:
Gather Moms for a product demonstration at a local park or playground. Bring along a teen to keep an eye on the kids while the moms have a little playtime of their own — learning about and purchasing your products!

4. Marvelously Memorable:
What can you do to ensure your message, and you, linger in your prospect?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢s mind long after your presentation is over? One creative seller starts her presentation wearing sunglasses (of course she takes them off right away). She explains that her ?¢‚Ǩ?ìfuture is so bright, she has to wear shades?¢‚Ǩ¬ù and can?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢t wait to share why. It?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢s a fun way to share her enthusiasm and sets the mood for a fun and relaxed presentation. She ends the presentation by giving a pair of play sunglasses with a tag attached which has her name, phone number and the following message: ?¢‚Ǩ?ìYour future can be as bright as mine! Let?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢s explore the possibilities together.?¢‚Ǩ¬ù

Publicity expert Joan Stewart shows you how to use free publicity to establish your credibility, enhance your reputation, position yourself as an expert, sell more products and services, promote a favorite cause or issue, and position your company as an employer of choice.

Around this time last year, I was taking an Internet Marketing TeleClass and Joan Stewart, The Publicity Hound, was one of the special guest speakers. I felt that what Joan had given us during that two hour teleclass was information I could apply to my home based Young Living business.

I then went to her website and signed up for anything free she offered and purchased some materials that I felt pertained to what I was trying to accomplish. Joan is VERY good! I have used and continue to use the free and purchased materials - yes, they have made a difference, particularly when it comes to announcing the Young Living educational events I co-host.

Check out her website and see what she has that can help you.

What are you thinking about right now?

The Law of Attraction states that “whatever we think about, we bring about”.

This law may initially seem like new age fluff but believe it or not, there are scientific merits to this proposition. The top quantum physicists of our time have discovered that our universe and our reality is very much directed by the “observer”.

When studying quantum particles (the smallest observable unit of matter), these scientists discovered that such particles behave in accordance with the person conducting the experiment. It the scientists “predict” that quantum particles behave in a certain way, they do. And yet, if the scientists “predict” that quantum particles behave in another way, they do. It is the “observer” that dictates the outcome of the experiment!

What does all this mean for us normal people? Well actually, these scientific experiments has far reaching implications for us as our world is made up of these same quantum particles! In this case, we are the “observer” the director and hence the creator of our reality, our world and our experience.

So, be careful of what you think about!

For example, have you thoughts ever begun with the following phrases:

I don?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢t understand?¢‚Ǩ¬¶

I don’t want…

I?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢m frustrated that?¢‚Ǩ¬¶

I hate my?¢‚Ǩ¬¶

I can?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢t figure out ?¢‚Ǩ¬¶

I?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢m stressed about?¢‚Ǩ¬¶

I?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢m worried that?¢‚Ǩ¬¶

I should be able to?¢‚Ǩ¬¶ but I can?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢t?¢‚Ǩ¬¶

Why am I having so much trouble?

The Law of Attraction is indifferent to the words preceding your thought. Whatever you think about you will attract into your life.

When you think “I don’t understand why bad things always happen to me?”, you are “attracting” bad things into your life.

When you think “I want to get out of debt”, you are attracting more debt into your life.

When you think “I’m worried I will get sick”, you are attracting sickness into your life!

The Law of Attraction brings about what you focus on even if it is not what you want. Get it?

If you understand this principle, here are some examples of how to make the law of attraction work to support you rather than to act against you. Try observing your thoughts and changing your thinking in the following way:

“I want to get out of debt” to “I want to earn amazing riches”

“I hate my boss” to “I look forward to owning my own business”

“I don’t understand why he is so lazy” to “I love it when he helps out around the house”

“I’m stressed about this project” to “I always create amazing results in my projects”

“I’m worried about getting sick” to “I experience vibrant health daily”

Now that we have a better understanding of the Law of Attraction, it is no surprise why so many people struggle with regards to money. It is been said that “the rich get richer while the poor get poorer”. This is actually the Law of Attraction in action. Because the wealthy have money, they often think about how to best use their money and hence they attract more money. The poor on the other hand often think about their present lack of money and unfortunately, that also attracts lack into their lives. Currently, 96% of the world’s wealth is being earned by just 1% of the population!

To address this issue, the main teachers behind the movie is launching a program is called “The Science of Getting Rich” and it is based on employing the law of attraction to create wealth. This amazing program is based on the principles and philosophies outlined in a book of the same title written in 1910 by Wallace D Wattles. This is the same book that inspired the movie.

What is The Science of Getting Rich about?

Well in the words of Wallace D. Wattles,
“The ownership of money and property comes as a result of doing things in a certain way. Those who do things in this certain way, whether on purpose or accidentally, get rich. Those who do not do things in this certain way, no matter how hard they work or how able they are, remain poor. It is a natural law that like causes always produce like effects. Therefore, any man or woman who learns to do things in this certain way will infallibly get rich.”

The Science of Getting Rich Seminar is all about teaching how to do things in this “certain” way to create wealth.
