Over the past few weeks I have been explaining Banners Broker to those who are interested, slightly differently.

Have a watch how I compare real world advertising to how Banners Broker would behave if they were an offline company.

HOPEFULLY it might just make you go ‘ahhhhh’….

If it does, please hit like and comment!

Take it easy

Before I went to bed, I thought I would check my Banners Broker account.  Sad I know, but hey, its how I make my living.

What I found was with the engine runing, Banners Broker were paying commisions to its members – the likes of you and me – at over $100  a second!

Truly amazing.

If you would like to purchase banner advertising to be able to advertise and raise exposure online AND receive a share of the profits that the company makes for you on your behalf – get yourself a free account here then give me a shout on Skype (refJamie).  I promise you it would be the single best decision you ever made.

Trust me.

“Jamie, that’s great – but where does the money come from?”

I get asked that a lot, and its a really good question – watch this 20 minute webinar and let Raj from Banners Broker explain it himself.

Welcome aboard the best business you have ever been introduced to – no selling, no telling, no recruiting.

Simply amazing!

See you on the beach…

How many times do you have to talk to someone or show them a video/website about your opportunity before the join?

Once?

Twice?

Twenty times?

Are they on your ‘no for now, yes for later’ list?  Which basically means “Sod off, stop pestering me”

Are you member of the NFL club? Sadly that’s not some amazing American Football club, its the ‘No Friends Left’ club – you have pushed opportunity after opportunity to the same people who have got fed up of your insistent ramblings about one opportunity after another.

Well, what if I told you I could show you an opportunity where you genuinely don’t have to recruit or build a ‘downline’ in order to succeed?

What if I told you that you only need to show the opportunity to people that you really care about – not anyone with a pulse like 99% of all the other smoke and mirrors opportunities out there.

“Naa Jamie, I dont believe you – sounds ‘too good to be true’.” – fine my friend, jog on by.  I wouldn’t want you in my team anyway with an attitude like that.

If you would like your ‘pitch’ to be simply

Hi Jamie, what do you do for your online advertising at the moment?   If I could show you a way for you to purchase banner advertising with a company that then gives you a profit-share of twice what you purchased – would you be interested?

If the answer is anything other than a ‘Yes’ it is swiftly followed by;

That’s fine Jamie – I wont mention this to you ever again because this fully works if you get started or not – I was more trying to do you a favour.  But you know where I am if you change your mind.

Then STOP.  Don’t waste a single breath talking about this opportunity with them again, remember, YOU DON’T NEED THEM.  Good, eh?

If you would like to know more follow the details on the contact jamie page, or send me a skype, refJamie – and we’ll get you started.

If you don’t grasp what I just said and have no interest in the concept of purchasing something and receiving twice back what you spent in the first place - don’t get in touch, because frankly, your weird.

See you on the beach, or not… that’s totally up to you..

Only to be woken up by a Facebook message and a phone call to say that my site had been hacked!!

So, I’ve cleared the unscrupulous code, shifted the hosting to my new (well, had it over 10 years) domain ‘jamiewaters.eu’ and copied all the files across.

Apologies if things do not seem fully functional/tidy/look nice* (delete as appropriate) but its 1am here and I did want an early night.

For now, thank you for your massive support and patience and things will (hopefully) look fancy again over the weekend.

See you on the beach

Jamie

What a year.

I sometimes have to pinch myself to remind me of the journey that I have taken this year and the direction that things are heading in for 2012.  I don’t want this blog post to turn into one of those ‘look at me ner ner ner’ blogs that are so abundant out there – that is really not me nor my intention.  I am simply sat here in my favourite coffee shop (Emma’s Tea Parlour in Holmfirth), trying to outline how you can copy my journey (and in fact do so much better than me!) in 2012 and set you on the way to financial security.

So how have I gone from not knowing where the next months rent is coming from, owing over £2,000 on credit cards (sorry mum!) to living in a larger apartment in the country, getting a new top of the range Astra and forecasting at least a 500% increase in my income in 2012 when the rest of the country (and sadly the world) are looking at what the papers call, a zero percent increase.

Let’s start back at the beginning in January.

I join my primary Network Marketing business, and in my opinion the UKs best network marketing opportunity, The Utility Warehouse Discount Club.  I get to grips with all the different services and start to think about who else might want to make a similar decision as me – work a couple of hours in their spare time, offer their friends and family the UKs garenteed cheapest prices (at the time of writing Dec 11) do the work the once and get paid every month for as long as those people stay customers.  Because the customers save so much (my average customer saving is £525 per year) they will not have a reason to leave, so literally you do the work once and get paid over and over…. Possibly forever.

I often get asked by the naysayers, “yea but how much did you make on your first month?” Without being awkward, it is really difficult to answer that, because on the 21st of December my latest commission payment included money from customers I signed in January.

Not quite working

Over the next couple of months, with hardly any support from my sponsor, I have different successes in growing my team.  Some people I speak to go for it, others simply arnt interested.  That makes me question if I am spending my time in the right way.  Why do people not see this like I do?

Some of my team go on and start to become productive, again others do not.  I take it really personally – like I’ve let them down, Ive mislead them, I’ve not helped them in the way I thought they would need it.    Some quit.   Argh, this is all going wrong!

However, by the summer my residual income from the business had grown to the extent that it was able to pay half my rent every month.  As nice as that is, I was still aiming for financial independence.  Something I’m not going to achieve ‘doing what I am doing’.

Focus Jamie, Focus

I then spend the next month online, ‘opportunity hopping’ – going from one ‘next best thing’ to the other.  I’m floundering and need direction.  Fast.

From a LinkedIn group, I found a website called My Lead System Pro – they give you training about how to market you as a person, as a brand and how to attract people to work with you.

From they trainings of MLSP I realise the important of networking and look for a local networking group to help build my customer base.  Out of the blue I get a email from a member of a local group of Business Networking International, BNI Wakefield Wealthbuilders.

I attend as a visitor, really like the concept, the venue (the amazing Yorkshire Sculpture Park) but more importantly, I like the other people in group.  My first few meetings bring me a dozen customers.

I’m on a roll.

Now things are happening

In July I’m introduced to a company called Banners Broker.  I take one look and decide to ‘dip my toe’ and see how it works.  The concept is pretty simple.  You buy banner impressions to advertise what you wish (The Utility Warehouse Discount Club opportunity in my case), the company brokers space and traffic on your behalf and gives you a share of the profits.

Hmm, this needs more due diligence.

I spend the next few weeks Googling, YouTubing and fail to find one single negative word against Banners Broker.  For a company that had been going at this point for 7 months, I found quite strange but also quite exciting.  Had I stumbled upon an internet gem?

The next few months are spent growing my Utility Warehouse team and also showing people the amazing power of Banners Broker.  Banners Broker is NOT network marketing, you don’t have a downline, there is no requirement to refer others – although there are huge benefits if you do.  You simply purchase advertising, use it for what you wish and the company will give you 200% of your purchase back in profit share.

I use my training and instructing background to help others by creating training videos. The interest these generate from YouTube is unreal, dozens of people a week add me on Skype (refJamie) and join me on my Banners Broker journey.  Things are really starting to take off.

In November I attend the first UK hotel meeting of Banners Broker and I am humbled by how the night develops.  Dozens of people come up to me, talk to me like they have known me for years and thank me for my time, my videos and my efforts in helping them on their way.  One, rather mature gentleman, told me that I had been “such an inspiration” to him.  Wow.  Little Jamie from Dewsbury is now being called an inspiration by a very well presented chap more than twice his age.

My insight helps me onto the UK leadership team, I’ve never been held in such high regard before and feel privileged to be in such a position with an international, multi-million dollar company.

What does 2012 have in-store?

As we approach the New Year, Banners Broker Version 2 is nearly upon is.  This promises to be better than version1 and will help take the company to the next level.

2011 has seen me read more than I ever have done before.  Using the Kindle app on my iPad, I’ve been able to read Rich Dad, Poor Dad by Robert Kioysaki, The Four Hour Work Week by Tim Ferriss, The Ultimate Sales Letter: Attract New Customers, Boost Your Sales by Dan S Kennedy and ‘How to Win Friends and Influence People‘ by Dale Carnegie.  I will update my Amazon reading list in the New year.

With the growing monthly residual income from The Utility Warehouse Discount Club and the profits that Banners Broker shares with its members, 2012 will bring some exciting new avenues and opportunities.

Times are though out there.  Job losses, job insecurity, pension worries, stock market loss, housing price losses, strikes and cuts.  In one way or another they have affected us all.

Only during times of austerity and great struggles are the greatest gains to be made.  2012 will see the onset of another recession, even possibly on the scale of the last great depression.  Only if you have positioned yourself correctly, will you be able to benefit while others continue to feel the effects of the economic worries.

There is another way.   There is a plan B.

If you feel you have what it takes to work with me in 2012 I would love to hear from you.  Due to the enormous success of my online and offline opportunities I will only work with people who are committed and coachable. If you think that is you, use the contact Jamie page to get in touch and I look forward to sharing in the success throughout 2012.

Happy New Year
