2. Purpose
The purpose of this training is to help you create your 2020 business and
marketing plan for your network marketing business. If you follow along
and complete each step, you will have a simple and practical game-plan
to move your business forward.

over the past 18-years and is just my opinion

4. Business
&
Marketing
Plan
Overview
This is your PLAN for your business
Failing to plan is planning to fail (I’d bet 99 in
100 network marketers do not have a plan)
Without a plan, you will not reach your
destination
It must be written down on paper
It should be kept to one page and be simple
and easy to follow
It is a living, breathing document that can
change and will change
You should refer to it daily and monitor you
progress

5. Parts of Your Business & Marketing Plan
• Unique Selling Proposition
• Vision
• Mission
• Strategy
• This Year’s Goals
• Daily Mode of Operations

6. Unique
Selling
Proposition
• What makes you different from everyone else
in the company and industry?
• Why should people do business with you?
• What do you have to offer others?
• Should be no more than 1-2 sentences
People want to work with me because I am a No B.S.
Network Marketing Professional. I provide great
training and support to my team and I always lead by
example.

people and I will earn more than $3 million per year.

recruit?
I build my business 100% online via my blog, videos,
podcasts, email marketing and paid advertising. I lead
with the business, recruit lots of people, and let the
serious people identify themselves.

10. This
Year’s
Goals
• Your goals must be specific
• 3-5 goals is perfect

500k earner
