MEET NEW 40/40 CLUB MEMBER SHAKARNA CHAPMAN!
PlanNet Marketing welcomes Shakarna Chapman to the 40/40 Club! Shakarna tells us, “I was born and raised in Brooklyn, NY. I moved to Aberdeen, MD almost 20 years ago to raise my son - the love of my life, who is now a chef living in Charlotte, NC. I spent the last 17 years working as a processing operator for one of the largest snack food companies. My interests are simple: I LOVE TRAVEL!! Now that I am an empty nester I get to do what I love - one of the reasons why I started my travel business. My love for travel started back in 2008 when I went on my very first "real" vacation to Jamaica. I have never seen anything so beautiful - it was paradise. The whole time there I couldn't stop thinking of my son and how much I missed him but more importantly, I wanted him there with me. Since 2008, my son and I have been to several countries and 33 states. Special thanks to a good friend who gifted me an all-expenses-paid trip to Jamaica - and I have not looked back since.
“From traveling as a hobby to traveling as a business, PlanNet Marketing has changed my life. This is my first experience with network marketing and I will say it has been one heck of a journey thus far. I never thought I would achieve this much success in a short period of time and I am thankful! In less than two years, I have made great strides and I will continue to coach, train and develop my team, as well as follow my leadership. I'm always in student mode! Being coachable, staying plugged in, trusting the process, doing the activity (PS3), READING, and repeating these steps consistently has been the success strategy - everything we are taught to do! Become the evidence and your team will follow you. The system works; never sway from it or try to reinvent the wheel. Special thanks to Letoria Mayberry and Jay-Michael Stuart for always being supportive and coaching me.
“Fun fact! Lately I've been on a quest to conquer all of my fears! After hearing Mr. Bradley speak about limitations and fears, it made me realize I had to remove all obstacles. A few of my fears are public speaking, shooting a gun, heights, becoming a business owner, etc. Recently I overcame my fears of shooting a gun and I flew in a helicopter over the Las Vegas strip. These experiences have taught me that the limitations were all in my head and I had nothing to fear. Fear is truly false evidence appearing real. I was empowered, liberated, and ready to release all inhibitions. Get out of your comfort zone and get into your MONEY ZONE!!! My goal is to be a Two-Star Director by my second anniversary.
“As always, I am honored and grateful to a be a part of PlanNet Marketing. Words can't express how thankful I am for Mr. Bradley and his vision!”
MEET NEW 40/40 CLUB MEMBERS CARMINE & LOLA ROBINSON!
PlanNet Marketing welcomes Carmine and Lola Robinson to the 40/40 Club! The Robinsons are multi-business, three barbershop and beauty salon owners who work their PlanNet Marketing business part time.
“Even though we make six figures in our conventional businesses, we understand that we must ‘dig a well’ before we get thirsty, and through this legacy company of PlanNet Marketing, we are going to earn additional six figures and retire my wife 13 years early! We will also fund our non-profit organization called the ‘Bluprt’ to help men returning home from incarceration map out their blueprint!! In closing we thank you for this opportunity. Bless everyone all over the PlanNet!
MEET NEW 40/40 CLUB MEMBER COPHIA JACKSON!
PlanNet Marketing welcomes Cophia Jackson to the 40/40 Club. Cophia says that she is an Alabama peach hailing from Jonesboro, Georgia. She was a military child for over ten years and was stationed with her family at many US Air Force bases, including two bases in Germany where she even attended a German school - “Gutentag.” After her father retired from the military, the family settled in Alabama and Cophia attended the University of North Alabama, graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science degree with a minor in Accounting. As a military child, she developed a love for travel as her family moved around the world during her youth. As she grew, her desire for traveling never stopped.
Cophia shares, "If it does not make dollars, it does not make sense." My mother taught me this at an early age. I never truly understood what that meant, until life happened. As a single mother of a 23 and 17-year old, I had to push. I went to school, I got good grades, and I got that corporate job. I believed this would sustain my family and me for life. After several years with corporate America, I realized I could no longer be a part of the 40/40/40 plan. [Editor’s note: The 40/40/40 plan: working 40 hours a week for someone else for 40 years of your life in order to retire on 40 percent of your pay.] I vowed to myself and others that I would find a way to get US into a race we could WIN.
“As an entrepreneur who happens to be a female, I have learned that we can do anything we set our minds to. I definitely enjoy helping not only young women, but young men to establish themselves, to love themselves, to understand that they can do anything and be anything they aspire to be. I started my business as a tax professional in 2003 and I have not looked back. Although this is a very rewarding profession, there are bumps along the way, but the successful never stop moving toward their goals. They keep on pushing, keep on moving, and they accomplish dreams that are larger than life. I encourage people around me to never give up on their dreams and goals. If it can happen for me, it will happen for you.
“When the opportunity in PlanNet Marketing came along, I immediately knew that this would help to positively impact families from all financial and cultural backgrounds. I am extremely happy to be a part of the PlanNet family and I look forward to helping many more. Multiple streams of income is the way to wealth. I am no different from you; my desires, goals and dreams are large. They are even large enough to make some people laugh (I love it)! I encourage you to keep pushing, keep moving, keep dreaming and keep putting it into action. NEVER GIVE UP - YOU ARE ENOUGH.”
MEET NEW 20/20 CLUB MEMBER STACEY SMITH!
PlanNet Marketing is pleased to welcome Stacey Smith to the 20/20 Club! Stacey was born and raised in Harlem, NY and currently resides in Brooklyn. She is a mom of a 19 year old son, Avery, who is currently in the Air Force, and an 11 year old daughter, Makenzie, who's in every activity you could name. “Makenzie keeps me very busy, but I work my business in my car while I wait outside of practices. I am a NYC bus operator by day and a TRAVEL BUSINESS OWNER by night. Before the travel business, I made custom designed sneakers and was in real estate. I love to shop and travel, especially when I'm shopping to travel. I love to help people and make them smile. My most memorable trips have been to Trinidad and Tobago, Hawaii, London, Paris, and Atlanta for my first Convention.
“Tips I have for my brothers and sisters in success are to remain teachable and coachable. Never stop planting seeds...everyone won't join your business right away. They will still be watching so just stay consistent and persistent. Never miss an event you are qualified to attend. You will have to make sacrifices, but once PlanNet Marketing is in you, it won't seem like a sacrifice. 20/20 was a fight and definitely overwhelming at times but I never gave up, nor did I become negative. I knew it would happen when it was my time. I went through cancellations and credit holds and should have been 20/20 in 2017, but that wasn't His plan. God won't give you what you can't handle, nor will he bring you to it and not bring you through it. I want to thank my team for partnering with me and all thanks goes to my amazing sponsor, Marwu "CC" Riley, who never stopped calling and pushing me.
“Fun Fact: I love to be at home. I can't dance or sing. I'm very clumsy and fall way too much. I have a tough exterior but I have a heart of gold (for all who have said I can't figure you out). I am willing to help and work with anyone. I also will take advice from any leaders willing to give it.”
MEET NEW 20/20 CLUB MEMBER JESSICA VEAL!
PlanNet Marketing is pleased to welcome Jessica Veal to the 20/20 Club! Jessica shares, “I am so excited and amazed about this major accomplishment! I am from Woodville, MS, which is located near the Louisiana state line. My interests are living like no one else, so later my family and I can really live like no one else! I am focused on my goals and dreams. Striving for excellence is my passion, and I know my passion will write my paycheck, The paycheck will afford my family to live an abundant life.
“This is just the beginning, and I will never mistake the beginning for the end. I love the world of travel. I would rather my children experience the world of travel and not just read about the world of travel. My overall tip is to stay humble and coachable at all times. The way I achieved my success was staying plugged in, trusting the process, and listening and running the play my senior business partner, Mrs. Sonia O'Banner Jackson and her husband, Todd Jackson, called. We are in business together but we consider each other family. It's a beautiful thing to meet a stranger who is concerned about you as if you were their own family. To achieve this success within six to seven months was just by staying consistent, persistent, and not making excuses, but only adjustments.”

CORPORATE OFFICE EASTER SCHEDULE
LEADERSHIP SPOTLIGHT ON: THREE-STAR DIRECTOR DAVID DACOSTA
1. Where were you born and raised; current city; family; hobbies; past business highlights...
I was born in Nigeria, came to the UK when I was three years old, and was raised in London where I currently live now. My hobbies would be my HUGE love for football, both playing and watching, and I’m looking to take up boxing soon as that is another sport I love. I'm also into TV and film, as that was the profession I was in before I became a full time network marketing professional. I’ve started acting school too as thats another passion I have, and of course I LOVE to travel.
2. How have you grown or personally developed since joining PlanNet?
I’m blessed to be frontline to Mr. Bradley, and his personal mentoring has changed me as a person and business owner 100%. I’ve learned how to lead, how to stay calm in difficult situations, and still get the job done when things are not going well.
3. What drives you; what motivates you?
I want to be the best in what I do, and I believe I have what it takes to be the best and to help so many people on the way. I have experienced having time and financial freedom over the last three years under Mr. Bradley, so now my biggest drive is helping others experience what I have. I won’t stop until I can bring others with me.
4. Who would you consider a role model and why?
Simple answer...Donald Bradley - his grace and class and focus on his goals are very inspirational.
If I can just implement only 10% of what he has taught me over the years I will still help thousands of people.
5. The three words that describe you best are:
The three words that describe me best are: humble, passionate, and adventurous
6. If you had some sound advice to give to anyone what would it be?
Don't wait...that thing you know you need to do, find a way to do it NOW!
7. What does your life look like five years from now?
God willing, very nice lol, surrounded by amazing friends and family and life-long business partners…oh and Nine-Star!
RACE TO THREE-STAR DIRECTOR!
These Two-Star Directors will soon reach 500 balanced active ITAs and earn another prestigious Director Gold Star!
DIRECTOR 1.5 ACHIEVEMENTS
