Friday No Pay Day

Took part in the Radio talk this morning. I could hear Jacki on the phone but the computer was playing yesterdays show. I thought it was a live show? I must have done something wrong.

Got my contacts today. One lady had heard about MPM but didn't know what it stood for. I just unloaded on her with the whole 9 yards. She seemed interested but you never know.

Had to carry my pick-ups radiator to Midland to have it fixed. The lady at the counter was a very good contact. She ask a lot of questions.

Thursdat Much Warmer

This was a much more enjoyable day.

Slid into the Blog Talk Radio Show. Seemed to go pretty well. As time goes by and people get more comfortable with it. I think you will see a difference in how they get involved.

Got my contacts today. Little harder today. Didn't have a bunch in one area.

It went well though.

Wednesday 10 degree morning

Had to carry my wife to the doctor this morning in San Angelo. Left at 7AM 10 degrees and ice on the road. God guided our car and we made it just fine.

Got my contacts today. One lady was from my home town of Ballinger. Got to talk about the old stomping grounds and things we did as kids. The others were employees of the hospital.

All in all a great day.

Tuesday Cold Cold

I stayed in today , high was 27 and low was 16. Had ice on roads, so I stayed by the fire.

Called and e mailed contacts and leads. No luck but had fun doing it.

See you when it warms up.

Monday Surprise

What a surprise this fine Monday morning. All of us thought this was the last week for Boot Camp, then Ginny tells us we have three weeks to go. Like some of the others I have made plans to do other things. Will have to think about this for awhile. I said I would finish this and probably will. Just don't like getting surprises like that.

Had agreat day other wise. Called some of the old leads I had before Boot Camp. I had just the same amount of luck as before. Did some e mails to old contacts. Talked to a lady in Big Lake with the Food Bank, have to meet with her this week.

Friday and no pay day.

Had a fast paced day. Had two skunks out buy the tractor and old pick up. Our little dog liked to have set them off, but thank God she didn't. Took about an hour and a half to get them to where I could shoot them.

Got my contacts for today. One lady was interested in the NPO part. They do horse rides for children with special needs.

Called some of the leads and emailed more of the old contacts.

Thursday 81 Degrees

Had a great day. Went and visited a nursing home today. Really enjoyed the residents. I haven't been since we started boot camp and it felt great to listen to them tell their stories and concerns.

Got my contacts today and talked to the nursing home director about MPM. We are to get together next week.

Followed up on some of the older contacts, call and e mail, not much luck. Tried calling the leads and was met with no answer or a machine.

Shutting down one glorious headache.

Wednesday Long Day

Well back to the drawing board. I will have to start back over on my contacts and get them an e mail once a week just keeping them updated. They might come around in the future and being one of my best go getters/

I will go back over the live leads and see what can be culivated from them

Got my contacts today. Had a long meeting then we went grocery shopping and was able to meet some nice people.

Tuesday New President

Odd day, watched part of the goings on in Washington for awhile then had to tend to other business.

Called some of the leads back today. The one lady that had wanted a call back was not able to get to the web site yet. Had her daughter take down the url again to make sure she had it right. I will follow up with her later. The others were no answers. BAH- Hum - Bug.

Got my contacts today, had to go to Big Lake but at least I got them. Just stood around a quick stop and talked to people as the went in.

Not much else going on. Have to cut it short today, have a hospital board meeting.

Monday Great Day

I have had a great day. I went and talked to the school personal. They liked what they saw in the presentation. They are not sure if they can do it or not. Their auditor is coming to the school board meeting this month and he is going yo look at the presentation. After he has view the presentation he should be able to tell them if the can do MPM or not.

Got my contacts today and called several of the old ones. There were no answers and machines. I think I am going to dump all the old contacts and start fresh this next two weeks,

My Goals

In the next 2 weeks I intend to get back out there and get a whole new set of contacts. I will probably discard the old ones. Calling and e mailing them has produced no results. Most have wound up saying they are not interested in MPM.

I have some of the leads I'm going to work on but the only one I have hope for lives on the East Coast. I have to call her tomorrow at 11 AM CST.

My main goal is to sign up at least one WCM and one NPO before Boot Camp ends. I may or may not get it done but it won't be because I didn't try.

The other goal is to have a positive attitude for the rest of the Campers and encourage them on however I can.

I'm not disapointed that I didn't do better because I know I gave it a good run for the money but just failed to make the touch down. As in all things in life you win some and loose some. I didn't loose since I met a lot of great people I wouldn't have met other wise, And learned you have to keep on keeping on.

Have a great night.

Sunday Not Good

Took some calls for leads today, was not a very promising set of calls. You have Mom's and Dad's filling the survey out for their kids. Not good. Other people just wont talk when they pick up.

Short and sweet tonight. I'm tired and disgusted, ready to throw up hands and say to heck with it. Won't do that though.

Saturday Butter and Egg aay

Got off to a great start tody, didn't last long but was good while it lasted. I got three contacts right off the bat this morning while I was walking our dog. Car had a flat on it and the three ladies were trying to figure out how to change it. While I was changing the tire I talked about MPM and how it could save them some money. They took my card and said they would see what is all about.

Had some leads today but the wasn't much to report. Got to leave one message and rest was a no answer. Called some of the earlier leads I hadn't been able to get a hold of but still no answer. Don't know if I like caller I D or not.

Last contact was getting gas and we struck up a conversation. One thing led to another and I got to tell him about MPM.

Friday Not to cold

Had a really great day. Got my contacts and had time left. Wind was blowing pretty hard and people were staying in. The 4 H stock show is this week end so I will try and see if anyone is interested in a WCM.

Mm contacts were all pretty well into the MPM theme today. One lady had a tub of question, I think I answered right. Didn't go out on a limb. Might get cut off.

Followed up on some of the contacts not much luck. Called some of the leads from yesterday and had a positive response from a Police Officer. He liked the NPO and would use it for the Polcemen's Fund. He was at work and is going to talked to his wife and get back with me. If they don't call I will call them.

Didn't get an anaswe from the others, left a message and told them I would call back.

Thursday Cold and Windy

Not to bad a day got my contacts in a reasonable time. Then headed home where it was warm. The contacts were all bundled up but took the time to listen and take the information.

Called and e mailed yesterday;s contacts. No answer at some , one of the e mail's came back not able to deliver. Will check and make sure I have it down right.

Got a hold of the Superendent at the school today have to meet at 11 am Monday. she wanted to see what it was all about.

Called some leads to night not much going on with them. One hung up before I even got started good. Called her back and got couple more words in before she hung up again. One didn't speak English,gotta call 2 back tomorrow.

Interesting day Helps keep you on your toes

Wednesday Great Day

Had a great day, got my contacts faitly early and was able to work on other stuff. The contacts were a little gun shy at first but all of them took time to listen to what I had to say. Felt positive about one, she seemed really interested.

Went back and called three of the leads that didn;t answer yesterday . One lady had just got in from work but listened to the presentation. She would not give out her e mail address but took down the MPM web address. Said it would be this weekend before she would look at it. Ask me to call her Monday eveningabout same time.

Next one ask me to call back tomorrow he had been through the wringer today and just didn't want to talk tonight. Said he liked what he saw and wanted to talk more about it.

Last one hung up on me last night but tried him again anyway. When he answered he started wth some foul language then said he didn't want to date me. I told him darling I don't want to date you I just want to help you find finanical sucess in a home based business. He paued for a second then said man I was just pulling your leg and said he was sorry. Said he was not interested in a home based business. I told him that was great I would respect his wishes. He then said man your good not many people shut me up but you got me good, I like that. Before it was over he tool the MPM address and my e mail. Told him if he ever was interested give me a call or an e mail.

E mailed some of the older contacts still no luck.

Tuesday Not Best Day

I don't know how to describe today. It was one of those that if it could go wrong it would and it did.
Neighbor lady had a water leak and it took a long time to fix it. Then old pick up was orny and wouldn't start. Just one thing after another.

Didn't get my contacts today just wasn't enough hours in the day. Stayed around computer from 4 PM until 10 PM waiting on leads. While I was waiting I called some of my old contacts and e mailed some no luck. Talked to Well Supply Business from McCamey over the phone. Know him pretty well wants me to get over and talk to him about MPM.

This is one of those days that makes you want to throw up your hands and say to heck with it. Can't start thinking like that though or it will get me down. Gotta reach and get a little lower on the boot strap.

Have a great night.

Monday I Think

What a day it was busy as a one legged man in a behind kicking contest. Had heater problems but got that fixed. Made the call this morning, then worked on car.

Had leads to work with, one is in Denver and have to get back to him tomorrow, a lady in Missouri ask me to call back tomorrow. Had one that had their own home based business but I won't tell you what kind. One of the people said they did not fill out the survey, and one hung up on me.

Not to bad a day no one cussed me out or threatened to shot me so I feel pretty lucky.

Did not have time to go out and get the five contacts today. I did do some follow up calls and e mails. It doesn't look as though I made muck headway but I think it was alright. There were no sign ups but that will come.

All of you have a great night.

Friday O Boy

Hey I had a great day, but then again all days are great if you want them to be. Enjoyed the call this morning learned a few things.

Got my 5 today fairly easy. Had one gentleman that was talking about his Business and I told him about the business listing page and he seemed a little interested. He kept asking how many hits he would get off the MPM site. I told him that was impossible to predict an exact amount but the price was right. Wanted to know if people clicked on his site would it carry them to his home page, I was truthful and told him I just couldn't answer that at the present time. I will have to talk to Miss Jacki and finf out the answer.

The other 4 were nice ladies I talked to. One was interested because of the non profit part. She works with the Midland SPCA. One lady was a clerk in the shoe department at Dillard's and her charity was the youth at her church. I explained how she could sign up and then get her church under her for free.

Talked to four young people at a wireless phone sales booth. Two of them didn't have a com[uter, the other two gave me their e mail address. I told the other two they could go to the library and use theirs until they could get on their feet. One young man wasn't sure if he could to the library.

You know we are all better off than we deserve. Thank You Lord

Thursday

Listening to the call this morning was an eye opener. I have dilly dallyed around and now I need to get after it.

They were talking about the new leads and the people saying they hadn't signed up for anything like that is just typical. I bought some leads from the back office and you get the same thing there. A teenager will fill out the info then a parent gets wind of it and puts a halt to it. The one most often used is that person doesn't live here or you have the wrong number.

Got my leads today and did some follow up. Not much success. One lady wanted to sign up but her husband said no, so that ended that. Don't understand some people but we are not all susposed to be alike.

Have a great night

Great Wednesday

Listened to the phone call yesterday and this morning and makes me feel a lot better. Still running behind but things are looking up.

Got my contacts today wasn't easy but all things in life aren't suposed to be. Got names and e mails no phone numbers but that is better than what has been happening. One man was very reluctant to talk about the mall at first but got into it after a little bit. Not sure how he will respond but he left in high hopes.

Called a few old contacts to day, not much response. Sent out several e mails. Still haven't gotten my letter written.

All in all it was a good day.

January 6th Cold and Windy

Didn't get my 5 today,but contacted some old contacts. I have to call one back in 2 weeks , she thought a grand baby was more important. Don't blame her.

Had 2 that were on the verge but just not quite sure yet. Will get back to them in a couple of days.

I haven't gotten my letter written yet. Just won't come to me on what to say. Start one then erase it. Think I have some timers or some thing. Will see if the other alternates are having the same problem tomorrow night.

Been closing out two business for income tax and makes it a little slow.
All have a good night.
