10 Awesome ways to Fire Your Boss!

September 15th, 2007 | No Comments |

There is a point that some people reach in their careers that truly sets them apart from the rest of the herd. This point came for me after I had been an employee for about 10 years. The resounding difference that occurred in me was the fact that I had outgrown my employer. I was done with making someone else rich while I made pennies. I was done being the slave to a job that I despised. I flat out outgrew my employer and everything he had to offer.

So I had a choice! I could either find another job and dedicate the next 10 years to that job, and then do it all over again, or I could become an entrepreneur and live life on my terms. Hmmmmmm…..tough decision right?

The best decision you could make for you and for your future would be to fire your boss and work for yourself. The only difference would be, well, there are a ton of them so I won’t mention them here.

  1. So, number one all time favorite ways of mine to fire your boss is to rip off your shirt, throw it on the ground and say, “I QUIT!” That was the way I did it and I highly recommend it! Very fun. Most effective when you have an undershirt or another shirt to wear.
  2. Walk in to your boss and ask for a raise. You may get into the usual conversation of him asking you why you feel you deserve a raise. Turn the conversation back on him and ask him why he feels he deserves to have you as an employee. Just mess with his head. After his response, which might not be a good one, tell him he is fired and walk out of his office.
  3. Again, go to your boss and ask him for a raise. Again, you may get the usual questions along the lines of why you fell like you deserve to get a raise. He may even ask you how much you think you are worth, or how much he should pay you. Tell him $2,000 a day, and by the way, you now only have a 4 hour work day! In the last 30 days, that is what I have made, except I only work 3 hours a day, Monday – Thursday.
  4. Go up to your boss and tell him that you are going to start working out of your home office and to not plan on seeing you around much anymore. This is more to just see what his reaction will be. Be persistent and serious with him. Then mention that you will be working for yourself and not him.
  5. Come in late one day and say, “Apologize for being late. I had to deposit my $14,000 check at the bank before I came in to quit. PEACE SUCKA!
  6. Just tell your boss that you can really no longer afford to work for him and that he is losing you money. Then give him your business card and walk out.
  7. Tell your boss that your time is too precious to spend away from those you care about. I run a very successful home business. That means I am at home, with my family, working only three hours a day.
  8. Throw yourself a going away party the day you plan on leaving your job. Make sure all your co-workers know about it and let it be a surprise to your boss.
  9. Tell your boss that today is your last day and volunteer to stay the two weeks just to be polite. But then reiterate that today is your last day! He will be a little confused.
  10. Just walk in and say that you have started a successful home business and say, “You’re fired!”

So there you have it. If you have any other sweet ways or ideas of how to fire your boss, post a comment and we will see how many good ones we can come up with. Seriously though, the day I fired my boss was the best day of my working career! Be smart though. Don’t just fire your boss if you aren’t self-employed and part of a business opportunity that is profitable enough to do so. I can definitely help you in that arena! So, fire you boss! Let someone else be the employee.

Self-Generated leads vs. Purchased leads

September 13th, 2007 | No Comments |

This business is a direct sales marketing business. The word ‘Marketing’ is the key word. What is a business without marketing? You will not find a business that has been successful but has no marketing plan. If you do, let me know. There are many different ways you can market your business. Marketing costs can range from almost nothing to the thousands depending on the business opportunity. In this business, I have seen folks make six figures in a month with a $1500 marketing budget and also have seen people blow $7000 and make a few thousand. So obviously there are more effective, targeted methods of marketing out there and some that will just flat out exhaust your marketing budget.

Self-Generated leads vs. Purchased leads

Purchased leads are a great way to get started talking with people. You may make a few sales from them, but they are not for long term use. If you are trying to build your business on purchased leads, that is what you will get more of….trying. Purchased leads are so general that you will have to go through quite a bit more of them to get the results you are looking for. Now, some people will tell you that it is not the lead, but the leader that creates results. That is right on the money, if you are talking with a qualified person or lead. The money that you would invest in purchasing 100 leads would be more effective in placing your own ads and only generating 20 leads.

Self-Generated leads are the highest quality lead out there. You will not find a more qualified lead. Self-Generated leads are ones that were generated from an ad you personally placed. Whether it be on the internet or in a newspaper, it doesn’t matter. You will find higher qualified people to spend your time with when you personally attract them to your business opportunity. The ratio of conversions drastically improve.

So, buy leads when you first get started to cut your teeth and to supplement when your lead generation is slow. Generate your own leads. Buying leads is almost like going back to the JOB mentality of having someone run your business for you. Don’t expect lead companies to do your marketing for you. That is the life of your business and if you don’t have highly qualified people to talk to, you will sink aweful fast in the network marketing industry. Take it from someone who has gone through the refiners fire and learn from my mistakes. This business opportunity is set up so that you don’t have to go through the mistakes that I did. Learn from a leader in the industry. Do your own marketing and become passionate about it and you will have the success that you are looking for!

The Lottery Retirement Plan

September 11th, 2007 | No Comments |

Just the other day my brother had asked me to help him move. While we were in the midst moving, of course his neighbors would come by to say goodbye to him. Well, somehow the subject turned to my Hummer as it sometimes does. They were looking into how much one would cost them. They decided that a brand new one was way out of their price range and that they would have to look for a used one. A new Hummer can cost right around $65k. Not too bad in my opinion. The gentleman went on and said that buying a hummer would use up all of his retirement plan and then he would still have to come up with $30k more. Then he said, “We’ll just have to win the lottery to be able to get one of those. That’s my retirement plan!”

The Lottery Retirement Plan

How many people have this kind of mentality, ‘The only way to have nice things and to become wealthy is to be handed money by the luck of the draw.’ Becoming rich is obviously not the easiest thing to do otherwise everyone would be rich. Right? Going back to some statistics for a second……90% of people expect someone to take care of them and give them handouts. Whether is be the government, their employer or family, most people expect to be taken care of. Only a small percentage of the population really embrace the principle of self-reliance. If they are going to have food on the table, then they have to get out there and make it happen. If they don’t, they won’t eat!

So if you are one of those people who are waiting on the lottery to make you wealthy, you will be waiting probably for the rest of your life. Wealth is yours if you learn but a few simple principles. The most important one being you are the only one responsible for your results in life. Take ownership in that and stop relying on the lottery mentality to create success for you. It won’t happen!

Home Business and Walmart

September 10th, 2007 | No Comments |

I had somebody recently request more information about the home business I am involved in because she would always see my wife and I in Walmart together while she was there alone. Her husband has a normal job and is gone all day long and I think that she was a little envious. Truth be told, I don’t blame her. I would want my life to. It is awesome. I have discovered a home business that has given me an unlimited income potential with only part time work hours. I work about 3 hours a day and have a ton of time for shopping with the family, you know. Work is not the major part of my day. Play is, and maybe some volunteer work.

Today we took a walk around the small community we live in here and decided to take a break on the tee box of the hole #3 here in Pinetop. We were joined by some people that lived right across the street and their Grandaughter. They were just being friendly but eventually were wondering what is was that we do for a living. Well, we run a very successful home business and make a good amount of money. She was so thrilled to know that a young couple was doing so well and could afford to live in this area. Most people here are retired folks or business owners, but much older than us. She noticed and commented on how happily married we are. Success to me is more than just making money, it means success in every aspect of my life. This home business has taken care of the money issue that most people stress about so that I can focus on the more important things in life.

I love my life. If you feel something is missing from yours, don’t wait to change it. A home business provides you with so much more than just money. It allows you to enhance the passions in your life and begin living again. So stop looking for the perfect home business because it is right here!

#1 Home Business

September 6th, 2007 | 1 Comment |

I’ll tell you right up front, I don’t know everything there is to know about everything. In fact, I don’t know all there is to know about every other home business out there. There are so many to choose from and yet, I still speak with people who have been looking for years. They have been looking for years for the perfect home business and have yet to find one. They are consumed with finding another, and another, and another to see how it operates, what the investment is and what the products are.

Call me lucky. Call it fate or just call it whatever you like. I have only started one home business ever. This is the only home based business that I have started and to me, it is the best opportunity out there. You know why? Because luck or fate has nothing to do with it. This is flat out, the #1 business opportunity. Call it legitimate, real or whatever. It is the home business opportunity of a lifetime. The truth of the matter is that those who have been looking for the perfect business opportunity for years will continue to look. In fact, they will still be looking for years into the future until they gain the courage to take action.

I am proud to say that this is the only home based business that I have ever done. In fact, I have become very successful at what I do. I deserve the lifestyle I have created for myself because I had the courage and the confidence in myself to take action. What great odds right? I have succeeded on my first venture in the home business industry! I succeed and assist others to succeed because I leave no back doors for myself and expect that from others as well. I am committed and I expect committment in return from those I assist and mentor.

If you have the ambition and desire to succeed and have the courage to take action, then you deserve to be part of this business opportunity. A few months from now you will wish you had found this home business earlier and will be sharing it with others like you have found the cure for cancer because it is the #1 home business around.

Labor Day Weekend!

September 3rd, 2007 | No Comments |

I assume everyone is having a great Labor Day weekend. I am enjoying having my daughter home from school today and have enjoyed the company of people that would have normally been at work. Labor day is a good thing for the employed! It gives them something to look forward to. Most people I know plan for Labor Day weekend right after the previous Labor Day weekend. Wow, a 3 day weekend! I have to laugh sometimes to think that I ever settled for that kind of a life. A life where I was told when I could take a day off. Christmas, Memorial Day, Labor Day, and the 4th of July was all that I got. Wow! Good trade for me working the rest of the year right? No!

The other day somebody actually asked me if I had Labor Day weekend off! I just gave them a blank stare for a few seconds and told him about my life. I don’t need a holiday to take the day off. I just go! 2 weeks of paid vacation does not sound enticing to me at all. I get paid while I am on vacation as it is now. Except I have more like 3 or 4 months of paid vacation every year. That seems to be about as much as we do go on vacation, I have burned up enough camcorder batteries to prove it! . And I love it. The only restriction we have now is school for our kids. Really, I work an average of 3 hours a day so really, my whole life seems like a vacation.

I’ll tell you what, you choose your lifestyle. This business opportunity has given me the ability to live the lifestyle I do. If I want to take a drive to San Diego to the beach, spend a week on a houseboat, go to Cancun, or just leave town to go shopping for the week, we do it. The great thing about this business opportunity is that I still make money while living my life and having fun. In fact, I make more money while doing that than I would by still being at my office.

So if you are still empoyed, it’s a bummer that you have to go back to work tomorrow. That is just the thing though….you don’t have to. You just choose to!
