Here is an interesting article on how to turn the national "Do Not Call" list into a lead generation system:

When is the last time you sent a "thank you" note to your customer base?
Nothing fancy required... just a simple thank you note that you can pick up at any Walmart or stationery store.
Customers are buried in bills, invoices, dunning notices, solicitations, etc. A small personal note of thanks goes a long way to establishing you as a caring person to do business with... and will result in increased customer retention... and continued business. That translates directly to PROFITS FOR YOU.
Try doing a quarterly mail out program to your customers... include something useful like a pen, keychain, small calendar... with your contact info "courtesy of" and your "thank you for your business" message. Make sure you include your business card with each mailing.
You will notice an immediate increase in your customer retention rate... and an increase in referrals!
Being successful in todays marketing environment means being flexible enouth to adapt to changing conditions.
We are indundated with advertising and marketing messages that compete for our attention...each one of us is bombarded by 3,500 marketing messages per day?
That's 24,500 advertisements per week.... 1.27 Million Advertising messages per year... and growing!
In order to cut through the clutter you need to fall back on some tried and true methods that capture a prospects attention. The trusty old telephone gets you one-on-one with your potential new customer or distributor.
Other more direct ways of reaching your prospects are wise strategy also... try sending more direct mail letters, post cards, etc. Get the prospect involved with your materials and you will carve out a bit of mindshare that you might not gain with online techniques.

Seasilver intends to ship a replacement of literature for all distributors who have ordered literature after April 1st, 2003. However, there is no published timeline for this to occur.
I strongly recommend that you order a supply of literature NOW. Do NOT wait on the literature replacement program. You need literature now in order to get your sponsoring and sales programs back in full swing.
According to Seasilver, literature is now stocked in all warehouses and available for immediate shipment. Call-in your order today to: 1-800-299-8256 and get a supply of the new literature shipped to you ASAP!
When the replacement order is finally shipped it will just be icing on the cake.
The difference between great people and everyone else is that great people create their lives actively, while everyone else is created by their lives, passively waiting to see where life takes them next.
The difference between the two is the difference between living fully and just existing.

Well, the move went as well as any move can be expected go. Lots of confusion, disorganization, hard work, and aching muscles.
I am back in the saddle again... back online, and cranking. While I was in the throes of the move I managed to sponsor two more Seasilver distributors into our SuccessWithSeasilver Team. :-) Nice to be building again!
According to last weeks Corporate Conference Call all the past bonus checks have been paid, new literature is shipping, a new video is on the horizon warehouses are stocked, and new product is flying out the door.
We are close to full reconciliation of all issues and the future looks GREAT!
Over the next few weeks you will see a lot of new content appearing on the www.MaxxMLM.com site so make sure you check in every few days and read the new materials and tap into the new resources. We're "ramping up" quickly now as we are headed into the best time of the year for MLM activity and sponsoring. The kids are back in school, cooler weather is hitting the U.S. mainland, folks are spending more time indoors and on the internet. The end of the year holidays are just around the corner...and folks are needing more money. Corporate downsizing is still on a rampage... and people realize that "if it is to be...it is up to ME".
All in all... we have a lot to be thankful for. I for one am re-energized, re-newed, & re-invigorated, and totally enthusiastic about Seasilver!!! This is going to be a fantastic ride over the next few months.

meeting starts... or on the telephone...by "Big Al" Schriter
One of the most requested forms from my SuperSponsoring Workshops was the form I used to get prospects pre-sold, leaning forward, and wanting desperately for the meeting to offer a way for extra income.
Many prospects who filled out the form wanted to join even before the opportunity meeting started.
I think you could even use this form on telephone calls. Simply ask the prospect the three simple questions on the
form, and wait for the prospect to say:
"I sure hope your opportunity can solve my problem."
Would you like a copy of this form to use for your business?
Just download this free form at:

WE DODGED THE BULLET... after a tense night of watching the pathway of Hurricane Jimena alter itself several times, we ended up with nothing more than some heavy rains and winds. The brunt of the storm slid further south than expected. Thanks for all your messages of concern.

I have received a number of concerned calls about the prospects of a hurricane hitting the Big Island.
First, let me thank each of you who has shown concern for my safety and well being... it is very heart warming.
As it stands now hurricane Jimena is headed straight for the Big Island with sustaining winds of 100+ miles per hour. This could change directions or speeds very quickly so it is really too early to tell what, if any, problems this might generate for those of us who live here. If it does hit, and we go offline, it could be days before we are back online.
For those of you who would like to track the storm online you may do so at: http://www.prh.noaa.gov/pr/hnl/cphc/pages/cphc.shtml
