<p><a href="http://www.travisfitzwater.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/kiss.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-364" title="kiss" src="http://www.travisfitzwater.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/kiss.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="158" /></a>K.I.S.S. &#8211; It stands for Keep It Simple Stupid (I&#8217;m not calling you stupid, by the way!), because it is stupid to make your business more complex than it needs to be.  It&#8217;s not smart to make your marketing and action plan so complex it overwhelms you to a point where you&#8217;re too handicapped in your mind to even take action on any of your plans.  So, today, we&#8217;re keeping it simple and I&#8217;m going to show you my simple three step plan as outlined in the terrific book, <em><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Beach Money</span></strong></em> by Jordan Adler, to network marketing and entrepreneurial success:</p>
<p><strong>1. Find distributors<br />
2. Find customers<br />
3. Teach the distributors how to do what you&#8217;re doing<br />
</strong></p>
<p>So now, if I get the response from a prospect that network marketing is too hard, my rebuttal shall be, it&#8217;s not hard if you can do the 3 things I have written above.  It&#8217;s not hard finding people interested in the opportunity, especially when the national unemployment rate is so high.  It&#8217;s not hard finding customers as my company provides an necessary and effective way to connect with people.  And, it&#8217;s not hard to teach people how to do what you&#8217;re doing. <em> Keep it simple!</em></p>
<p>So, here&#8217;s to your success, and it&#8217;s as easy as what you see below:</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;">K</span>eep</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;">I</span>t</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;">S</span>imple</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;">S</span>tupid</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>K.I.S.S.</strong></span></p>
<p>God bless,</p>
<p>Travis</p>
