CONGRATULATIONS TO PLANNET MARKETING’S NEWEST TWO-STAR DIRECTOR - TONY FLEMING

Tony Fleming, PlanNet Marketing’s newest Two-Star Director now lives in Atlanta, GA by way of Birmingham, AL. He tells us his interests are reading leadership books, personal development books, learning from and listening to others. Tony’s wide travel experiences include destinations such as Paris, Switzerland, South of France, Tahiti, Hawaii, with his favorite place being Monte Carlo! Tony says, “I like to take tons of pictures and learn about the history of places. When I was exploring Paris and Switzerland I loved seeing all of the old castles and architectural structures of where people lived many, many years ago.” 

Director Fleming attributes his success to “user experience.” He relates, “I've been doing this business full-time for 22 years and it just becomes a habit. When you stay in the environment then it just becomes second nature. I just do it and it has become my life. Develop your team, make this business become your life; it needs to seriously be a part of your environment. 

If you want to make a lot of money in this business, do the calls, make the meetings. Do what the system suggests - calls, read the books, do the training -  then you will eventually win. That is how I have reached the top of every compensation plan of any company with which I have been affiliated. Tony says education is necessary, but one needs financial knowledge to succeed; one needs to think in a different way to achieve success. He believes entrepreneurship is the ability to spot an opportunity and the willingness to go after it despite the risks.

Quick success comes from locking into this environment early and doing what you're supposed to do. Don't just put one toe in. It needs to be on a consistent basis. Bring on more quality people, find people that are better than you, that you look up to, bring them into the business, and you will have quicker success.”

CONGRATULATIONS TO PLANNET’S NEWEST ONE-STAR DIRECTOR - TOBY DACOSTA

PlanNet Marketing’s newest Director, Toby Dacosta, resides in London, United Kingdom where he was also born and raised. He earned his One-Star Directorship just last Thursday and PlanNet Marketing is proud and excited to recognize his outstanding achievement.

Since leaving university, Toby has been running a successful online business which has given him the freedom to travel. Over the last four years, Toby has lived in Spain, Portugal and Austria. In addition, he has experienced 10 different cruise holidays and visited many other countries all over the world. Toby has always been passionate about business, cooking and sports, loves to sing, but most of all is passionate about travel. He loves table tennis and is happy to challenge anyone in PlanNet Marketing for a King of the PlanNet competition!

Director Dacosta is a firm believer in mastering the three skills to “go elite” in network marketing and says these are the skills that will position one to achieve the rank of Director. 

➤ Master Recruiter
          Understanding the PS3 system to recruit
          Organizing your daily schedule to recruit
          Working your Active Candidate List
          Becoming an aggressive inviter 

➤ Master Team Builder
          Creating the environment for your team to build starts with you!
          3-Way Calls
          Travel Parties
          Social Events

➤ Master Team Trainer
          The team that sweats the most in training bleeds the least on the battlefield.
          Learn a skill, then teach it
          Education is key, BE the teacher!
          Key Trainings (PS3 & Fast Start)

Excellent advice, Toby!  PlanNet Marketing congratulates you on your achievement and knows with your expertise and skills you will continue on your path to even greater success!

SAPPHIRE RINGS PRESENTED BY FOUNDER AND CHAIRMAN DONALD BRADLEY

The impressive Presidential Sapphire ring was awarded by PlanNet Marketing Founder and Chairman Donald Bradley in Dallas last week to Phillip Rollins and Keith and Adairia Vinson. The Sapphire ring is awarded to those Independent Reps on an annual track of $100,000 a year. Congratulations to Phillip, Keith and Adairia on this outstanding accomplishment!

Philip thanks everyone for all of the congratulations! He said upon receiving it, “Getting my six-figure Sapphire ring in Dallas, TX meant a lot to me today. People see your glory but may not know your story. Well, a big piece of my story was right here in Dallas. I truly have a strong gratitude to have done this in less than six months. Documentation truly bests conversation all day every day. Let's Geaux! ‪”

JP Watkins, Phillip’s Director and leader says, “My heart is overjoyed because it’s one thing to get the six-figure ring but it's another to become a ring maker. When people join you they trust you that this WILL WORK! Congrats to my ace Phillip Rollins on getting his six-figure ring today in PlanNet Marketing!! You are simply amazing and so deserving! This is just the beginning. I know you will get the half million ring soon! Love you to life dude!! Let's Geaux! We just gettin’ started!!”

-----------------------------------------------------

Keith and Adairia Vinson were born and raised in Tulsa, OK, and currently reside in Allen, TX. The couple has been married since December 25, 1992.  Keith has been employed by the United States Postal Service for the last 18 years and Adairia holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Management and owned and operated a successful Childcare Center for eight years.They have two children (Keith, Jr. and Lauryn) and devote most of their time as the primary caregivers to Adairia’s elderly parents with Alzheimer’s, which is a full time job within itself.

After being introduced to MLM six years ago, the couple decided to close their operation and concentrate on building wealth through the vehicle of Network Marketing, with an emphasis on travel. Keith and Adairia work this business on a part-time basis but are achieving full-time results. 

“Becoming the newest recipients of the six-figure Sapphire Presidential Ring is one of the most gratifying accomplishments we’ve ever achieved as a couple, next to marriage and our children. Our journey hasn’t always been easy. We experienced many bumps in the road but we are a testament that if you keep doing things consistently until they become habits, the return will be well worth it all!

We are forever grateful to the Visionary and Founder, Mr. Donald Bradley and Mrs. Deborah Bradley, our Success Coach and Mentor, Mr. Shedrick White, and our entire team.  We realize that without this invaluable support system, none of this would be possible. 

We do not take this honor lightly and it is our sincere desire to be examples of individuals working this business with Integrity, loyalty, documentation and a competitive spirit. Our favorite quotes are: “To whom much is given, much is required,” and “Be the leader you want to attract,” and “His every PROMISE is Yes and Amen.”

20/20 CLUB MEMBERS HAVE THE VISION!

MIKE BANKS

Meet 20/20 Club Member Robert Michael Banks Jr., who goes by Mike Banks. He is from Baltimore, MD and currently lives in Randallstown, MD.  Mike says he is blessed to have served in the United States Marine Corps. He loves spending time with his three lovely daughters and "The Big Fella," his grandson.  He says, “I have a genuine passion for coaching and am blessed to coach some amazing young ladies in softball, which adds about 20 plus more daughters to my life. It's more than the game of softball, it's helping teach life skills at the same time and I love it.

The success that I have received with PlanNet Marketing comes from the seeds that have been planted in me over years and the seeds that I have planted. It's about the relationships, commitment and dedication to helping others achieve their goals, while at the same time making a commitment to going after mine. The one thing I would share with anyone wanting to have real success is to stay plugged in, stay in the right environment, keep believing, and work on yourself daily. Finally, remember to first understand instead of being understood.”

Patricia Brown

20/20 Club Member Patricia Johnson Brown is originally from Somerset, NJ and has lived in Johns Creek, GA since 2007. She loves traveling, math, live music, and just being with her family. Patricia says that she has always been adamant about taking at least two vacations each year. The Caribbean is her first choice and she also loves Turks and Caicos, along with other beach locations such as Jamaica, the Bahamas, Cabo San Lucas, Cancun, and the Cayman Islands, to name a few. She has also had the opportunity to travel on business to Jerusalem, Amsterdam, Stockholm, Munich, Paris, Vancouver and many cities in the US… and with her new travel business, she tells us her bucket list of travel places is rapidly growing. “I exposed my daughter to travel at a very early age and my family always remembers and reflects on the experiences that came from travel way before they remember the material “things” that were purchased for them.”  

Patricia relates, “I had a successful career in corporate America in the semiconductor industry. There I excelled, earned great income, but had no passion for what I did. Now, I am so excited about the opportunity to build a thriving career in a new industry while pursuing my passions at the same time. I am truly passionate about giving back, which is why I am the cofounder of the nonprofit organization, Math Is My Friend, Inc., which is dedicated to closing the achievement gap in math. However, I am also truly passionate about financial freedom. As a part of PlanNet Marketing I have the opportunity to give back by helping others pursue their personal and financial dreams, all while traveling and pursuing my own financial goals.  It’s a win-win and a perfect way to go into what I call “Phase 2” of my life. When I heard Donald Bradley say “we are going to teach you how to make it, save it, and invest it,” I knew this was the place for me because that was already my mantra, except I did it with a job and stock options. I thought to myself, ‘Now, I can do the same thing with my own business, while traveling the world!’ How awesome is that!!!  I’m all in!" 

Patricia attributes her success to being a firm believer of setting goals and tracking results. She continues, “I believe this was a huge contribution to my reaching the milestone of 20/20 Club.  I like things simple and to the point. When my mentor, Eileen Ross, and I discussed working my list and the fortune being in the follow-up, I embraced it. I put my head down, I made my spreadsheet, and I started inviting. When I looked up, I had over 20 people. On my spreadsheet, I have a column with a note for each interaction with the person on my list; that way I can track their responses and know when and how to follow up. I can easily see what methods/exposure tools have worked better for me, which then helps me duplicate my own process. Every person does not respond to the same type of invitation the same way, so you may have to switch it up until you get a response.

Thanks to all of the PlanNet Marketing tools, the training provided, and my mentor, I have so many ways to expose people to my business and I am constantly learning the most effective ways to use all of them. In other words, “fail your way to the top,” try different things, take the shot.  I learned that by staying "plugged in” to all of the personal development training that we receive on the calls and at local meetings. The funny thing that I’ve learned about myself over the years and in this business is that I CAN take rejection, but I hate being ignored. It’s part of life and it’s definitely part of sales for someone to respectfully decline what you are offering, BUT when you ignore me? I can become relentless (in a positive way, of course). ”I will NOT be ignored!” LOL

Compliance Tip of the Week

Marketing your PlanNet Marketing IR Website

AMAZING Website? Check! We want you to use our website…you know www.plannetmarketing.com/YOURUSERNAME.

Catchy URL? Special Email Address? Totally up to you! We allow our Reps to register domain names and/or email addresses to customize their business as they choose (at your own cost). Just keep a few guidelines in mind BEFORE purchasing any of these services.

You can’t use domain names (URLs), email addresses, or other online aliases that could cause confusion because people believe or assume the website or communication is from PlanNet Marketing (like using “PlanNet Marketing” in the domain name or email address…or by having “PlanNet Marketing” displayed as the sender of an email.)

Examples of improper URLs, email addresses, and online aliases: PlanNetMarketing@msn.com; www.PlanNetMarketingDirect.com; www.facebook.com/PlanNetMarketing, etc.

Examples of permitted URLs, email addresses, and online aliases might appear as follows: facebook.com/ilovePlanNetMarketing; jimsmith@PlanNetMarketingIR.net.

If you have a domain name or email address that you just think is FANTASTIC and you want to start using it to promote you and your PlanNet business, but you aren’t sure if it meets the guidelines above, just send me an email – I’ll look it over and let you know if it’s approved.

Congratulations 20/20 Club!

To become a PlanNet Marketing 20/20 Club Member, you must produce 20 direct ITA sales. And those sales will create 20 Independent Travel Agents with the opportunity to build and profit from a home-based travel business in the most exciting industry on the planet! Featured below are five of PlanNet Marketing’s amazing 20/20 Club Members! Watch for more 20/20 features in upcoming issues of your PlanNetNow! Blog!

Deborah Hardnett

20/20 Club Member Deborah Hardnett is an Atlanta native, who has recently moved back after living 10 years in the Metro DC area. She loves music, dancing, cooking, serving and entertaining, and of course, travel! She tells us that she has had the fortune to travel all over the world, with some of her favorite places being Turkey, Greece, and Monte Carlo. Still on her travel list to visit are Ghana, Senegal, Egypt, South Africa and Dubai!

Deborah’s excellent advice for achieving success is: remain consistent, keep sorting, go through the numbers, keep expanding your Why, allow the process to work, become a master of the PS3 System and be a master promoter. And… absolutely, never take it personally. Remove emotion from the business equation and don’t quit on YOU!

Deborah says, “I have been in the industry two decades, took a long break and I am so happy to be back. I am grateful and appreciative for such a time as this, where I can be a part of the history that is being made. I have never seen a company and leadership that mirrors the best of both the traditional business and the network marketing worlds. PlanNet Marketing is light years beyond any other business model in the direct sales industry. It's not just the very aggressive, yet very responsible compensation plan, or the top-notch training, the powerful proven product, or the impeccable timing, or our tremendously talented teammates, but the solid leadership is what seals the deal. The competence, confidence, and commitment of Mr. Bradley, Mr. Cauthen, and Mr. Ferrera working together equates to an opportunity of a lifetime!”

Letoria Mayberry

Letoria Mayberry is a native of Athens, Alabama and is a versatile force of creativity, drive and passion. The youngest of four siblings and graduate of Oakwood College, she is a contracting officer by day with the United States Army Department of Defense/Counternarcotics Terrorism Program. By night she becomes an advocate for financial freedom, where in addition to the 20/20 Club, she is a PlanNet Marketing Two Star Director and Founders Club Member. She is a single mother of a 21-year-old daughter, co-owner of Signature Events by L’SKY, a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Incorporated, Co-founder of Models for Jesus Christ and she serves as youth director at her church, New Beginnings MB Church.

In her continued passion for making a profound difference, Letoria is also the CEO of “Winner In Me,” a ministry that helps fund a shelter for battered women and children and is a strong advocate for female empowerment. This shelter provides a temporary, safe and secure respite where these women will be strengthened and empowered to start a new life.

Letoria relates, “I have always dreamed of traveling the world. Since I embarked on the travel industry two years ago, I have gotten an opportunity to travel not only domestically but internationally to some places I have dreamed of going. I truly enjoy being a travel agent. I love the excitement of helping plan my clients’ travel. I treat every opportunity to book my clients’ travel as a unique experience where they can actually visualize their vacation before they get there. I want to help create an everlasting memory that they can share for generations to come.”

Her method and techniques for success are based on her belief that at the end of the day, everyone is a winner. She says, “We all have survived something! I have to attribute my success to just having the will to win and my Why.  I can truly say I have one of the best coaches (Mr. Orlanda Moore). Being under his leadership has taught me to:

  1. Stick with the system by doing the simple things consistently (PS3)

  2. Remain coachable - meaning follow the leader, always take notes when your coach is speaking and duplicate the process

  3. Always reading and studying the industry

  4. Have a competitive attitude (I never want to lose because my family deserves this)

  5. Practice what I teach. (Don’t expect something from my partners that I’m not doing myself)

  6. Making sure my partners are getting what they need

  7. Have a leadership that is duplicable

  8. When approaching a prospect make it about them. (How can this business help them?)

Lastly, a motto I live by is: If you had four hours to chop down a tree, what would you do? My answer: I would spend three hours sharpening my ax, then hone in on my skills and act. You have to make the sacrifice and always be hungry for success.”

Velecia Middlebrooks

Meet Velecia L. Middlebrooks, who tells us that she is a military brat (Army/ Air Force) who has recently moved from Northern California to Columbia, SC, but Dover, DE is where she calls home. Her varied interests are traveling, community service (especially for single mothers who are in need), socializing, networking, spending quality time with family, sightseeing, attending concerts and plays, watching Marvel movies, and wine tasting.

This 20/20 Club Member has had a passport since she was eight months old, traveling with her parents in the military. She states that she has no problem going anywhere or relocating, having traveled to Belize, four parts of Mexico, the Bahamas, the Grand Cayman Islands, two parts of Jamaica, and she’s on her way to Germany. She is a frequent cruiser with Royal Caribbean, Norwegian, and Carnival, but prefers all-inclusive resorts because she is a spontaneous explorer.  

Velecia attributes the key to her success as being coachable and open to constructive criticism. She says, “I have been in several network marketing companies that ‘I didn’t WORK.’ If I would have been coachable and not trying to do things my way, and not just focused on the sale of the product (my background is sales and marketing), I would be a millionaire or a six-figure earner. I used techniques that were taught in school, not what is being taught now. With that being said, I went from having 10-15 direct sponsored to me to now over 100 in less than seven months!”

“I am still pushing to meet my next goal of Three Star Director. This is an exciting and great achievement for me only because I’ve changed my mindset. I am still a work in progress, but open to the process. I say be the master inviter, share with everyone! Everyone who I speak to, I visualize them as President Grant (a $50 bill)! Right now I am still learning and being mentored. I advise that if you are still a newbie to network marketing, you should have a mentor, someone who has the knowledge to help you get to where they are. Find a mentor who can push you, help you be accountable, and is willing to dedicate true mentorship to you. Keep a focused and positive mind. Don’t let your distractions keep you from your success. I do have a huge heart, so I am always helping others in any way that I have the knowledge to help them achieve their financial goals.”

Velecia says that believe it or not, “This natural born diva is very shy. I shake before I speak and hope that what I say makes sense. Oh, and I am not a huge fan of texting. I feel like it is not personal!”

Natalie Graham
Natalie-Graham-2020A.jpg

20/20 Club Member Natalie Graham is from Hartsville, SC and now lives in Atlanta, GA. Her family, travel, and life coaching are a few of her many interests. She and her husband have traveled to Jamaica, the Dominican Republic, St. Kitts, San Juan, Turks and Caicos, and St. Maarten - all with in a six-month span!

Natalie teaches, “You must have a servant’s heart in this business. It’s all about building relationships and truly valuing the business and those relationships. My key to success is to not make any excuses. Showing up in your business is key. Staying plugged in and being in the midst of all of the events and culture made me want to strive for more.”

Working full time in a corporate career while finishing up her Master’s full time, Natalie is a wife and mother to three with a baby due in October! She says, “When people say they are too busy, I think it’s great… because busy people get things done!”

Donn and Tawanda Shamley

One Star Directors and 20/20 Club Members Donn and Tawanda reside in Atlanta, GA, although Donn is originally from White Plains, NY. This power couple just celebrated their 25th Wedding Anniversary and have two children, Collin and Faith, who are their driving force for doing this business. Donn is a business analyst and Tawanda is an entrepreneur in the Gospel music industry. The Shamleys serve in Marriage Ministry in their church and Donn is also the drummer on the worship team. One of best travel experiences was their 20th Anniversary when they went to Maui.

Tawanda relates, “We have achieved success so quickly by first having confidence in the network marketing industry, the travel industry, and our two companies, PlanNet Marketing and Inteletravel, and being able to transfer that confidence and excitement to people we share this opportunity with. Secondly, stay connected to all calls, meetings and big events. One tip we would like to share is to quickly buy in to the PS3 model. We all have the option to build our business however we choose, but why not use a system that has proven to be successful and is very duplicable, which is key in our industry.”

Compliance Tip of the Week

Marketing and Social Networking go together like peas and carrots, peanut butter and jelly, biscuits and gravy… it just WORKS. These days, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram and other blogs and forums are THE place to get the word out about your business. Let’s just lay a few ground rules first, ok?

►No selling, people! You can tell the world about your PlanNet business – our product, the mission, the opportunity - you can prospect and support your team, but please don’t do any actual selling on your profile or page. If someone is interested – they’ll let you know and you can give them your phone number or email address so you can connect and talk more!

►Use YOUR name! Don’t put “PlanNet Marketing” as the name on your profile or page. We want you to identify yourself as a PlanNet Marketing IR or Rep, and you can post about PlanNet – but please use your own name or your business name.

►Keep it Clean! Remember you’re representing a fabulous company. A professional company. A business. We want the world to take us seriously. Please avoid inappropriate conversations, comments, images, video, audio, applications or any other adult, profane, discriminatory or vulgar content.

►Follow the Rules! If you get an email from me, or anyone at PlanNet, asking you to remove something from your social media profile or account – please take it seriously and courteously comply (and then tell us you did so we know it’s fixed). Also, if you see something on social media that you think maybe shouldn’t be there – send a private note to the Rep and recommend they fix it, or at least suggest they ask me about it to make sure it’s approved.

Following these simple guidelines keeps PlanNet Marketing – and you – compliant and ensures a professional and appealing business appearance.

Shaunte Garrett

Shaunte Garrett lives in Nashville, TN by way of Oakland, CA. She LOVES TRAVELING,  ministry, watersports, live music, cooking, football and mentoring.She has had an opportunity to go to Hawaii twice (once for the Pro Bowl), Mexico, Jamaica and half of the states in the US.

Shaunte says, “I've learned that being excited about my business has sparked excitement in others and being educated about what this opportunity can give has made PlanNet attractive to my prospects."

"Talking to my up line Tawanda Shamley every day, reading and staying plugged in has increased my posture and allowed me to have a level of success such as the 20/20 Club which is still only the  beginning. I've been in radio for 15 years so people used to know me as the "Radio Lady" but now they know me as the "Radio Lady who gets paid to travel!" Stay tuned!"

  

Gail Johnson

20/20 Club Member Gail Johnson is originally from Atlanta, GA and currently residing in Lithonia, GA (metro Atlanta). Her interests are music (singing, dancing, listening), sports (all types, including playing basketball and racing the neighborhood kids!) and ALL THING TRAVEL.

She explains, “ I fell in love with travel when my grandparents took us on trips every year as children. I experienced my first plane ride as a senior in high school and have been addicted ever since. My love for travel brought me to a 14-year career in the airline industry where I've worked with flight crew members and airplane mechanics”.

“I believe I am achieving success with PlanNet Marketing because I truly believe in the industry and the leadership. Mr. Bradley, Shedrick White and a host of other leaders have really shown me how I can take something I love and build it to last for generations.”

Tips that I can share are to: 1. Love it... If you love it, others will see it in you. 2. Share it... Travel opens the eyes and the minds for the unknown; it touches people on so many different levels... so why keep it to yourself. 3. Build it... With travel being the #1 industry in the world, building it will allow for generational prosperity.  One way I achieved success so quickly is by being coachable and wanting to soak up everything from the ones who have perfected it.  Another way was by finding others that shared the same love and passion for the travel. 

Fun facts about myself -- I have two amazing sons, Darius(19) and Lauseric (11) who also love to travel. My greatest joy is helping others do things they never imagined doing. I love seeing people happy and laughing and living life to the fullest.

 

Walter and Tiffany Powell

Walter and Tiffany Powell have called Atlanta, GA home since 1997, originally coming from New Orleans. They are immensely interested in teaching, inspiring, motivating and empowering individuals on life's purpose.  They have journeyed to the islands of Jamaica, Bahamas and Aruba and have visited Canada and Mexico while sailing on 11 cruises.

They tell us, “Our success can be attributed to the mentorship of Donald Bradley and the coaching of Director Shedrick White, in addition to reading the books "The Magic of Compound Recruiting" and "How to Win Friends and Influence People.” As a result of these readings, we've discovered rapid success comes not from motivating people but motivating motivated people. 

More importantly we enjoy sharing and participating in the achievements of others. PlanNet Marketing has indeed enriched our lives beyond measure.


LaDonna Spratley

Originally from Augusta, GA, LaDonna was born on the Fort Gordon U.S. Army Military Base. She earned a Bachelor of Science degree from Paine College in Business Administration with a concentration in Information Systems and she works for the Department of Veterans’ Affairs, serving our nation’s Veterans for 31 years. She lives in Atlanta, GA and is the single parent of two handsome sons, Darian, 24 and Odera,
age 17.

LaDonna tells us, “I have always maintained a leadership role as I have trained hundreds of employees in their profession and career. I consider myself to have an impeccable work ethic and a passion for people. I have always had a passion for travel, even at a young age. I enjoyed and loved that my parents took us on trips and vacation every year so it was a predestined path for my future! I have visited several incredible places , Jamaica, Mexico, and many islands in the Caribbean. Some of my other favorites fun activities are dancing, bowling, and painting.

I initially joined the industry to make an extra stream of income by becoming a Cruise Specialist and my niche is group cruises. Now my passion with is to create (and is accomplishing) a financial legacy for my children and their children and helping other families do the same. This opportunity has changed my family’s life in so many ways. We take paycations now; we have reduced our household debts tremendously and we enjoy the freedom and lifestyle changes that PlanNet Marketing affords.

My success in PlanNet Marketing stems from my desire to help others. I truly want to be that ‘change agent’ for people and the industry. Also the following are very important: remaining coachable, following the system, reading and personal development, and remaining plugged into the culture.”

 

LaVonda Thornton

LaVonda Thornton is a busy wife and mom to 5 children - ages 3,4,7,9, and 17!  And she is a full-time network marketer! With over 10 years experience in the oil industry she recently lost her job, but thanks to PlanNet Marketing she already had plan B in place! 

Immediately after her lay off, LaVonda  traveled non-stop. She says, “In April and May I had the surprising pleasure of experiencing my first FAM trip. The first 4-day, 3-night all inclusive FAM was to Grand Bahama Island, where I became an expert by learning about their culture, the tasteful dishes, specialty drinks, and somehow ended up in a music video for their island celebration of Junkanoo Carnival!   A couple of weeks after that I was invited to return to the Bahamas to visit Nassau. It  was an exciting experience where it made me realize I'm truly at the the best place on the PlanNet!

When people ask me how I did it I explain there's absolutely no one I won't share this business with. I love everything about the company so I refuse to keep it to myself!  It's simple -  the more you share the video the more likely you are to be successful. Being a product of the product is all the proof people need!
