What a great day out it was on Sunday. I had the pleasure of attending The Team Event at a location I’d never visited before. Stoneleigh Park, just outside Coventry. A two and a half hour drive gave me plenty of time to listen to a brilliant recording by Jim Cathcart, which I thoroughly enjoyed by the way.The subject, All Leadership Begins with Self Leadership. It was very inspirational :-) I digress…

I got to the event somewhat early, it was scheduled for a 2PM start, and there I was at 12.30, so I got to sneak in and meet Dave and some old faces I haven’t seen in years which was lovely.

You may or may not know I have been working with Gordon Bunker and Dave Butler, maybe I should be saying David Butler as this is what Tina calls him :-) but old habits die hard right! So, it was a good chance to meet up with them, well, especially as we were launching the ebook to The Team members on the day!

As an aside, if you don’t know what ‘The Team’ is, then a good place to find out more is at The Team Website. Basically we are a team of UK Entrepreneurs who help each other grow our businesses, Neat eh :-) The team promotes a number of businesses that pretty much anybody can build.. more of that on the website.

We got to set up a ’stall’ in the conference hall, a big thanks must go out to Gordon who had been up until 630AM getting everything sorted out, finalising the ebook, getting the exhibit together and everything. That man has boundless energy! He even managed to get a mail out to team members reminding them to bring a memory stick so they could leave the function with a copy of the ebook and a load of bonus material including spread sheets and some killer follow up email materials…

So, on with the conference. A highly enthusiastic and energetic presentation on the updates and, soon to be launched, Success University website by Roger Galloway. Roger stood in for his wife, Paula, who unfortunately couldn’t make the day due to ill health.  Roger has a style of delivery all of his own which captivates the audience and drives his message home in a fun and easy to understand way. The message was simple, the new Success University website is set to blow the opportunity wide open with massive growth expected over the next few years… do you want a piece of it?

Next up was Diahanne Rhiney, an outside speaker who gave a presentation on 14 steps for success. Success principles are universal and having an outside speaker in to deliver a presentation like this just goes to show that if you apply the principles taught, you can be successful not only in business but in all areas of life. A great speech.

There were plenty of breaks between presentations to mingle, associate, grab a coffee and chat with fellow team members and entrepreneurs which is so important. After all ‘The Power of Association’ really is a key factor in the changes required to move on and reach your goals. Who better to associate with, face to face, than some of the most successful networkers in the country!

Another fantastic speaker was Jerry Scriven, his speech focused on the current trends in the marketplace, you know that there has never been a better time to start a network marketing business right? There are literally millions of people all over the world looking to supplement and even replace their current incomes, and in some cases do it before the carpet is pulled from under them, just look at the banking sector, need I say more? The industry we operate within is poised to explode over the coming years, we are just about to be hit by a wave that will penetrate the public conciousness, especially with all the media assistance we are getting at the moment! I almost want to say “Yay, bring on the recession!” lol

Next, it was Dave Butler, Dave delivered a presentation on the new ebook, and the systems within.

We’ve called the ebook ‘The PIE System’. Passive Income for Entrepreneurs, catchy eh? The purpose of this ebook is to assist people to move into promoting their opportunities on the Internet. It has been put together for both Newbies and seasoned Internet Marketers alike. Dave’s presentation explained the principles employed to use a squeeze page system, backed up by a traffic system, which builds a targeted list of leads, which join your opportunities, which drive you traffic and so on.

The two systems detailed in the book are James Grandstaff’s Instant MLM Squeeze Pages and Stone Evans Plug In Profits. Two battle hardened and proven systems which can have you up and running building successful businesses online within hours!

These two systems have been carefully selected based on the people behind them. Both James Grandstaff and Stone Evans care about their clients, they demonstrate this on a daily basis and provide true value and support to their clients. They are both tremendously successful within the Network Marketing industry and have both built collosal businesses leveraging the power of the internet.

Dave called several people up on stage to talk about their experiences with the systems (yours truly included, which was flippin scary to be honest, but hey, I’ll give it a go!) These people vary from zero internet marketing experience to moderate and even advanced. I think it was ken who said “there’s two kinds of people, those I know and those i don’t know, there’s 6 billion people out there that I may be able to reach and get to know using these systems…” Sums it up really doesn’t it :-)

I took this rather ropey picture while Dave was giving his presentation, no doubt my readers will have noticed I ‘ain’t that great’ when it comes to photography and pictures… my wife, Larina is a brilliant photographer I should really blag her skills to help me out a little :-)

Lastly we heard from Malcolm Horsey, a tremendously successful e-lottery affiliate. I found out he was an ex-fighter pilot which I thought was cool :-) His presentation covered two areas, the launch of the new e-lottery DVD and the launch of the new e-lottery website. The DVD is incredibly powerful as a tool which can be used to build the e-lottery affiliate business (I got hold of some while I was there, leave a comment and I’ll drop you an email if you’d like to see it) The new website is the result of some extensive research which has been commissioned over the past year or so and is geared up for the market.. the site launches Thursday!

In conclusion, what a fabulous day! I left with that ‘cannot fail’ feeling. It’s great to be part of a team, a team which shares a common goal and aspiration. It’s great to learn from the masters who are so unselfish in their willingness to share their skills, techniques and ideas. I am proud to be a part of it.

Thanks Very Much to Tina Nichols for getting these next two pics to me… I think she took pity on me lol!

The photographs were shot by Darren St Mart.

Yours Truly not actually looking that nervous :-) I think I said something like “I asked Dave to help me build a network marketing business where I don’t have to talk to anybody!”

If you’d like to discover more about the team just comment here, or find me on twitter

All the best!
