Make a game plan and stick to it

What is a gameplan for Coastal Vacations? Coastal is in my opinion a business in a box. Many of us make this business way too difficult. Let's take the facts. Travel is a 7 trillion dollar industry. People love travel. They spend so much hard of their hard earned money on getting away for those magical 2 weeks a year. 90% of the business is automated. We have websites, trainings, live calls, directors and forums. Everything you need to run your business is right at your fingertips. Where we go wrong is not putting together the right gameplan to follow.Now many put this job on their director but to be honest it's on you as your own boss to make the right gameplan. Your director can guide you but its up to you to find the right way to run your venture.Let me start with a story. When we started this business my wife and I made a gameplan. We took a week off to put this plan into effect. Our first step was to evaluate our strengths. In any business venture you have to accentuate your good points. Both of us are good with people so we understood that getting in front of people would be good for us. Next we looked at my wife's strengths on the phone. We knew that if we got her on the phone with people many would join our organization. These were big strengths of ours so we had to make them stand out.Here are some things you need to evaluate about yourself as you make your gameplan.1- How much time do you have to put into your business?2- How will you break that time up?3- How are you going to advertise?4- What budget do you have to advertise?5- How do I use my strengths to my advantage?6- How do downplay my weaknesses?Think of it this way. If you have phone-phobia why would you just buy leads? You are wasting your time and money. Maybe you need to better use that time to be in front of people or maybe buying other forms of advertising. Another thing people make a mistake in is spending their time on the wrong task. So many spend crucial time on training when they should be doing other activities. Training is crucial but id rather do an income producing activity if at all possible. The goal in business is to make money and income producing activities always should have a high ranking in what to do next.Stay tuned for the next five days as I go over the points in making a gameplan and sticking to it. I hope that many of you will get something from the experiences that have been through.

Treat your business like a business cont.

Treating your business like a business means treating your customers as customers as well. This is a tough thing for many. In this day and time the going thing is the customer is always right. I totally disagree. The business owner is always right. You have the right to work with who you desire to work with. If you dont like a customer then dont do business with them. We are in the 7 trillion dollar travel industry. There will always be customers. Always keep your posture. Now with us being in a home based business many of us feel that we owe everything to a new associate. Thats a myth we should squash. The new associate is getting the worlds best travel package for the price they pay. Let's look at it this way. Right before my wife and I joined Coastal she went on a cruise that cost $1000. That was just for her. So when I saw 5 cruises for $1295 saw the value. Your new associate is getting a great value for their money. Plus every group I have come across in Coastal has all the training they need to do this business. You should just be their guide and mentor.I believe our thinking is skewed when it comes to what our director owes us in this business. Now the director should be a guide but lets take an example and compare some stuff. Many people go to college and pay 10's of thousands of dollars to be educated. Now even after paying all that money they are still required to work arent they? So why when you pay $1295 to your director and get a travel package worth well over 15k do we get mad at our director if they dont hold our hands? We have to take responsibility for our own businesses. If we start to look at our business in a different light and begin to act accordingly I assure you that you will reap the benefts. This concludes the first segment of my thoughts on Coastal. I appreciate all that have been looking in. Be on the lookout as tomorrow I begin to expand upon how to set up a gameplan and implement it.

TREAT YOUR BUSINESS LIKE A BUSINESS CONT.

In treating your business as a business you have to learn to think like a business owner. I like to model myself after the big boys in the industry. Walmart is a business I study alot. I hate going into the store but to be honest they have everything. They have learned how to be everything to everyone. Their shelves have all the new products at the best prices. How do they do that? Supply and demand. They buy wholesale and sell retail. They have the most supply for the products that are in the most demand. That is a recipe for success.By modeling myself like Walmart I treat any opportunity the same way. I always want to buy at wholesale and sell retail. I also want to market a product that the demand is high and I have a big supply of. That means that Coastal fits the criteria. And by deduction if I treat Coastal like a business I will be paid that way. Its all in the mindset and following certain business principles. There are business principles that work in any business. When we learn these principles and apply them everything goes well.I want you to ask yourself a question. When you talk about your business to others do you act like it's a small mom and pop operation or do you look at it as a major corporation? This is an important question. If you look at your business as a business others will treat you and it accordingly. Change your mindset and change your results.

WHO ARE OUR CUSTOMERS

Without customers you have no business. Thats a fact. So its important we find out who our CV customers are. I break them down into a few categories but in reality everyone is our customer.The retail travelerWho doesnt like vacations and who doesnt like to save money. I was in Disney and met a family that spent over 5k for their hotel rooms for a week. They had a big family and needed extra rooms to accomodate everyone. I was there and was staying in a 5 bedroom house for $735 for the week, it slept 12. If you add the price of a Premier package and our trip we still came out better than that other family. Not to mention ours is a lifetime membership so we get those saving every year. Next year when that family goes again to Disney their cost now are over 10k. Mine is a little over 5k. Big savings.Business buildersIf you are looking to build a business you want something that can sell. Vacation do that. As well as something you can make money at. Well $1295 to $9705 is great money. True entrepreneurs see this right away. If someone harks over the price after seeing the value then they arent a true business person. Its a harsh reality. Thats not to say that if you dont have money you arent a business person. A true business person that sees an idea that will work and doesnt have the money makes a plan to get the money. Its that simple.Business ownersThis is the best market out there. Many of the challenges we face talking to prospects we dont face with business owners. First most of them understand how business and advertising work. They are will to spend to get more customers. This package gives us a multitude of way to show them how to increase their customer base. Next they have employees they would love to retain. This is a competitive market and giving employees incentives is a proven winner. How about having that incentive be travel. All employees get vacations and many would love a discounted one. The last point I want to bring up is the money challenge. Most business owners can spare $1295 on the drop of a dime. Especially if you explain the value right.These are just some of the customers you have with CV. How many more can you think of. Id enjoy some pm's with what you have come up with.If you are a new prospect be sure to click on the links in my signature line to find out all you can about CV and my great programs to get you started.

The A-Team Has Done it Again

Coastal Vacations (CV) is the best home based business opportunity on the market. You can make from $1000 - $9705 on every transaction. The challenge has always been the start-up price. At $1295 its a bargain as you get 5 cruises, unlimited complimentary vacations as well as a ton of other benefits. But the fact of the matter is $1295 is more than many want to risk to get started in a home based business. The average starting cost on most home based businesses is usally a couple hundred dollars. CV veterans Adam + April Frederick have always been innovators in CV having won the prestigious Rookie of the Year award in 2005 and giving amazing trainings as part of the Coastal Synergy Group Board of Directors and saw a challenge.

They have created the A-Team CV FREE Apprentice Program where anyone can get started in Coastal and be trained by the best.

As they see it money should never be an issue from someone succeeding in business. With all of the tools available in Coastal great system they were able to create a program to help everyone get involved. Of course they promote the paid option as you can make more in commissions ( after doing all they could to come up with the money to get started they made over 10k in their first 7 weeks). You can get more details of the program by going to http://atcvfap.acamarketinggroup.com/

The A-Team will then personally contact you to get you an information pack to get started. The A-Team wants everyone to have the success they have had in Coastal Vacations and think this program will be a hit in 2008.
