Cell Phones Are a Household Item
2008-10-06 12:07:29
When you look at business opportunities, they often deal in some dubious product like a juice or a vitamin. Not MyWireLessRep! They deal in Cell Phone plans along with other items like calling cards, long distance plans, and other telcommunications related products. But when you think about the market penetration of cell [...]

Looking at Anytime Minutes
2008-10-04 12:30:17
When you select a wireless plan with MyWirelessRep, you will be asked to select a plan.  The defining part of the plan will likely be what is called “Anytime Minutes”.  This is another word for Peak minutes.  In the Lightyear plans, Anytime Minutes are between 6:00 AM and 6:59 PM, Mondays through Friday.  When you [...]


Do U like to txt?
2008-10-03 13:54:16
Text messages are fun! But don’t do them while driving, please! In fact, I can’t text and walk at the same time; I have to stop to send my text messages. Also texting is much easier when there is a keyboard involved. They are easier on the Blackberry models that offer keyboards in my [...]


Tip for a Bluetooth Headset
2008-10-02 11:02:36
The cell phone market is huge and along with that comes a hefty accessory market. A lot of times when you go to the ‘cell phone store’ to get a phone, the merchant makes the really big money on selling you accessories (that you may or may not need). One thing nice about shopping online [...]

Single Product Companies
2008-09-29 09:41:13
One of the issues with some network marketing companies is their product offerings. Or I should say ‘offering’ as oftentimes there is just one product for sale. This is particularly common for juice MLM’s but not really limited to them. Single product network marketing companies have the obvious problem of the “all eggs [...]

MyWirelessRep now Has Competitive Phones
2008-09-28 11:35:50
One issue that has been raised, is that the phones themselves in the MyWirelessRep plans were expensive. That has proven to not be the case however, since additional rebate options have recently been introduced. For example the Blackberry World will be $199.99(USD) after creditworthy establishment rebates. At AllTel, that same phone is only rebated down to [...]

Getting Paid on other People’s Phone Bills
2008-09-27 13:21:54
What a concept hm? Up until now, the only ones who got paid from phone bills were the telecommunication companies themselves. However, MyWirelessRep lets you earn money off other people’s phone bills. How is that possible? It works at two levels. If you are a MyWirelessRep rep, you can sell wireless service plans directly to customers. [...]

Voice over IP for International Calling
2008-09-26 09:54:23
So far, I’ve talked about MyWirelessRep in terms of wireless cell phone plans and packages. Indeed the name MyWirelessRep implies specialty in wireless services. While wireless service packages are the flagship products of MyWirelessRep did you know that the company (via the parent company Lightyear) provides a lot of other products and services including [...]

The Easiest Conversation
2008-10-23 12:04:21
The catch phrase for MyWirelessRep is “The easiest conversation you will ever have”. What that is referring to of course, is talking to people about the MyWirelessRep business. That’s not just some meaningless phrase they made up. When you think about it, isn’t it natural to talk about things like cell phones? In a [...]

Lower Cost of Entry
2008-10-21 20:23:59
MyWirelessRep has announced a new promotion. From now until the end of the year, you can join the business as a manager for $49.95. You could formerly join the business for $49.95, but as I mentioned in an earlier post, that option was limited to just earning residuals from customers. With this promotion, you can [...]

In any business, one aim for secured success is to have many different types of income coming in. Multiple streams of income. For some that means multiple network marketing businesses.

No Get Rich Quick
2008-10-19 18:12:51
There are several reasons that people are turned off by the idea of joining a network marketing business.  One is that they may have joined one in the past with the expectation that it would be a “Get Rich Quick ” business.  And they ended up being disappointed that not only was it not GRQ but they [...]


The Value of Residual Income
2008-10-18 16:43:29
Not all kinds of income are created equal. I’m not talking about unequal dollar amounts either.  Most people are conditioned to think of income as something you trade time for. For example, when you work at a job for $10 per hour, you work 8 hours and you get paid $80 (before taxes).  That’s all [...]

Retail Sales in MyWirelessRep
2008-10-15 21:38:20
MyWirelessRep is a network marketing organization and as such, many people are sometimes skeptical about it. One question that is often asked (and should be asked) when looking at a network marketing company is: Can you make money selling the product or service without the opportunity? This is a test that all legitimate network marketing [...]

MyWirelessRep Start up Options
2008-10-13 10:40:41
Yesterday I talked about the ongoing costs of a network marketing business. I gave the low ongoing cost of $49.99 for MyWirelessRep as an example of terrific value in a home based business. What about start up costs? Overall, the cost of getting into network marketing companies pales by comparison to other types of [...]

Cash Flow and the First Year
2008-11-16 11:01:26
You may have heard that most people who start home based businesses quit (fail) within the first 2 years. Why is that? There are lots of causes of failure in Network Marketing, but a significant cause of early failure is negative cash flow. That’s where you spend more money on your business than you take [...]

Procrastination and your Home Business
2008-11-15 16:18:48
Have you ever heard the expression “procrastination is the thief of time”? What it is referring to is that the more you procrastinate on something the more time just slips away and the less likely it is that that ’something’ gets done. Is your something the idea of starting a home based business but somehow [...]

Operating at a Loss
2008-11-14 11:02:38
In any business ventures, not the least of which a home based business, it’s important to have realistic expectations. Realistic expectations of long term profits not short term windfalls. So many businesses are marketed with “make money fast” hoopla that it’s no wonder people are disappointed when they join a business and can’t [...]

Warding off Bad News
2008-11-13 13:56:26
Now that the elections are over and that particular dust has settled, people are looking to new government officials (particularly Barack Obama) to ‘fix the problems’. I think too many people are looking for solutions from government. Most people don’t really know what to do when things are broken that they feel are outside their [...]

Crossroads or Dead End?
2008-11-10 21:52:26
Today I learned that DHL will be closing its American shipping services. DHL is/was the 3rd largest shipping carrier behind United Parcel Service (UPS) and Federal Express (FedEx). This will shed 10,000 more jobs from the U.S. Job Market. When people lose their jobs, they often feel themselves at a crossroads, not really knowing which [...]

iPhone a Flute?
2008-11-09 21:43:18
Lightyear Wireless isn’t going to be selling Iphones anytime soon. As I pointed out in an earlier blog post, as popular as they are, Iphones are still outsold by Blackberry phones. However, I do get a kick out of the cult nature of the Iphone (and for that matter, the rest of Apple’s products). [...]

Consistency meets Uncertainty
2008-11-09 12:02:25
People work at a job because, we as humans like consistency.  I believe we are drawn to it and take comfort in it. That 8 to 5 job (or whatever the hours are) relives us of any concern of where we will go today (if today is a work day). And there is also consistency [...]

Life without a Cell Phone

There are more ‘gloom and doom’ reports in the news today regarding the job market.  The news is reporting that unemployment passed the 6% mark and that 1.2 million jobs have been shed in the U.S. during 2008 so far.  You know what I think of this news?  I don’t pay attention to it, that’s [...]
