Exciting Plans for UNO!

Please check http://marilyn-williams.com/bbs-clubhouse/uno.htm for further updates to this blog. Thanks.


OK, much thought has been going into the new UNO Start. Please understand that UNO Start is not a program that is outside of BBS... it is created and owned by BBS.





UNO Start is a small feeder program for BBS, and it's like we have a second chance at building our matrix. I'm very excited about it. You know, we did things originally in a way which we believed would benefit everyone, but it wasn't to be.





We are so aware of the folk that are caught up on the bottom of the matrix, holding their hand up and crying "help!". We believe that if we go about UNO Start in the right fashion, we will be able to help everyone.





UNO Start feeds BBS, so new people are needed and wanted, but with what we have planned I think this is going to fly! What we need is momentum... not stagnation.





I want to thank Philip Beaton from Denmark for putting his head into gear and sharing his thoughts and secrets with me :-) He tells me he's been thinking hard on these things for years... on how to do it to benefit everyone!





Now, what I'm sharing with you now is not set in concrete, but I'd like to give you a pretty good idea on some of the things we intend to do.





#1 At the very top of the UNO matrix we will take out 4 positions and call them "Team". They will be owned and operated for and on behalf of the team.





#2 Immediately beneath there (on the row of 9) we will place 9 members. These will be members who will give it their absolute best shot at building. Members who can sponsor. Members who are not afraid to go "gung-ho"! This will benefit everyone.





#3 Although we have asked you to consider 4 packs (which is a great idea if you can), we are planning to spread those 4 positions around in the matrix, once again to benefit everyone. So, instead of the extra 3 positions coming in under yourself, they will fall under other members. Everyone will do this. Great for everyone!





#4 Then under the row of 9 we will file everyone else in, one position at a time. If, for example, we had 20 members buying a 4 pack each, we would enter each one's first position in 1 - 20, and then come in again with the 1st member at #21 etc. Ofcourse, we are believing for a great many more than 20, but just using this as an idea to explain.





#5. Now, as each TEAM position fills it's little matrix, more TEAM positions will be bought within the matrix from the monies earned. Also, each position automatically receives a re-entry as well.





#6 We will receive a list of people who are willing to PIF for others. At the same time, we will compile a list of folk who wish to be PIF into the team. These members, that you pay for, will be placed under YOU. Can you imagine what the situation would be if you paid for one new member per month... and everyone did the same? Whoosh!





So, all in all, we are doing combined TEAM building strategies, with individual strategies. Everyone you introduce will come in under you... so it's not TEAM build in that sense. But, we have TEAM business centres working on behalf of everyone... creating more TEAM business centres...etc etc etc.





This is what I need from you:





a) Do you wish to be one of the members placed on the row of 9? Can you get out there and promote this "big time"? Let me know why we should consider you for one of these positions.





b) Continue to send in your desire for 1,2, or 4 packs. You can have 3 if you want. You can have as many as you like. Maybe you would like to buy an extra position each month. These are just thoughts... and as I said, nothing is set in concrete at this stage. But let me know please.





c) Do you wish to PIF for others? Let me know.





d) Do you wish to be on our PIF list, so that another member will pay your way in? Let me know.





Now, on top of all this, I will still be buying extra positions under the TEAM as I don't wish to take advantage of being the Sponsor of most of you. So, between me and the TEAM business centres, there should be a lot of action happening.





Are you going to be part of this with us and help us to create a crazy momentum that will benefit all? I do hope so. Every one of you. There's enough of us to make this thing really fly, but only if you are willing to join us. Let me know... do I have your support?





Warm regards

Preparing for UNO Start


UNO is coming closer every day... may even be ready to go in about 1 week... (don't hold me to that as nothing is official... ha ha he refuses to give a date in case he can't keep to it :-))



As we already know, a position in UNO Start is $11 once off. But, I'm suggesting that everyone purchase a 4-pack @ $44 once off. This will send us through the roof!


Ofcourse, if this is really beyond you, then go for a 1-pack, or even a 2-pack.


So, I'd like you to reply to me at countmeinplease@gmail.com and let me know your intentions... will you purchase a 4, 2 or 1 pack?


For the benefit of those in our team who have continued to pay every month and haven't received any commissions, I'd like to place those at the bottom towards the top of UNO Start. Does anyone have any problems with this?


Please realise that not everyone can be on the top, but I would place you as near the top as possible.


Another thing for everyone to realise is that we are not building this to create lots of spillover, and therefore have no-one do anything to help. Been there, done that... don't want to do it again :-) Spillover will obviously occur, but we need new "bottoms on seats" as the saying goes.


Because I am the Sponsor of most of you, I'm intending to turn back any commissions made by myself into the team... not totally sure exactly how yet, but I'm working on it.


I'm trying to think of a way that I can purchase positions under you providing you find some new people... thinking.... thinking.... More on this as the time draws near.


A 4-pack will create 4 times the build, so please seriously consider this. It actually means that once 3 new members come under you, your small matrix will be filled. Remember, it's a 3 x 2 matrix. You would then be paid out, and given a new position... and away you go again.

It will not be hard to find new members to pay $11 once off, and then to have them enter into our BBS matrix where the true money and residuals lie.


Basically I'm just discussing all the pros and cons with you... I'd love you to have your say. You can either do it through our Countmeinplease Google Group (you can find the link to that over here on the right hand margin where it says "Please Leave Your Comment Here" ---> )or by sending me an email. Whichever is ok, but please respond quickly.

I'm working extremely hard to have things ready for the launch of UNO Start.... but more on this next time.


Warm regards

Splash/TMD/UNO updates


Hurray! Splash & Website now ready to go.

Well, I thought I had everything right with the new splash page and website, but it proved to be otherwise. Nevertheless, all is done now and I've made up all the pages for those that requested them. I am ONLY making them up according to requests.

If you are able and wanting to make your own, you will find the full instructions at the Clubhouse on how to do it.

Remember, there are 60 varieties of splash pages, each with endless possibilities for what they say on them. Feel free to make up as many as you like. Those that need me to do it for them, just let me know if you want a different version from what you have.

Rally around folks. If you are promoting then you need one of these website. Go to the last blog update for the informtion I require... or to the Clubhouse.

BBS has a very beautiful website. Really, all it needs is something to give a quick overview of what it's all about. My website, I'm realising more and more, has to do that. I will be making changes, but this won't affect the advertising link I gave you. It's evolving more and more as I get to realise it's role in the scheme of things. I'm going to incorporate UNO into it as well so that's it's a complete overview of what we are promoting.

TMD Update
Just want to tell you that I've been communicating with Fred Hill, and he said although he has experienced a rough start he still believes that everyone that has participated will be very happy they have. This is good news. He said it really hasn't even begun. He apologises to all that he's been slack on replying to their emails (he admitted that this was his weakness), but he will get around to everyone as soon as he can.

UNO Start
I don't have any update on the expected start of UNO Start. I do know that Mike has his head down and tail up working on it, so it will be asap. Just to reiterate a little here... it's a one time payment of $11, and each time you cycle you will be given another free entry into the matrix... so it's ongoing. If you are already a member you will be able to use the commissions paid to pay for your current membership. Only new people to the system will join up into BBS under you if you brought them into UNO. Just get prepared at the moment with having $11 in your account (over and above your monthly subscription to BBS) so you are ready just as soon as it is.

It is run on a follow your sponsor in, so it means, you cannot join until your sponsor has. Now in our case, I happen to be the sponsor of most of you... just because that's the way we ran the teambuild... so I'll have to put my thinking cap on on how best to do this. Anyway, I will let you know in plenty of time... and whatever I do, I will be fair, because that's the way I operate.

Warm regards

New Website and Splash Pages out Today!


OK, today is the day! We are rolling out the new website.

Just click through this splash page to the main website:
http://marilyn-williams.com/learn-and-earn

This is the information I need to have:
1
First and Last name
Skype
Yahoo
Email
MSN
City
State
Country
Phone (international)
Your photo - just send me a piccy of you
Your BBS id# - such as http://www.bbsglobal-diamond-elite.com/?aff=ca4e2309

You can leave blank any of the messengers you don't have, but I would definitely recommend you have at least one... ie... one that you have turned on so people can contact you :-)

2
Now, if you would like your own individual Splash Page, you can choose your own fully personalised one. Go to the Clubhouse and choose which header you would like... out of a choice of 60!

Then you can choose from the Titles, and text supplied... or write your own. Keep it short, sharp and snappy.

To get the idea of how your page will look, and enable you to change whatever you don't like, download the wizard at http://marilyn-williams.com//splashy/transformer2.exe . This will enable you to look at the finished product and allow you to chop and change whatever you think. (You won't need to save it unless you are actually making the page to host yourself.)

All this is very simple to do, so don't panic about it. Or, you can simply choose the text and titles as they are written and give them to me.

Send me this information and I'll make up the pages, and host them for you. I'm choosing to do this free of charge at this time.

If you have your own means of hosting etc, then feel free to make up your own by using the wizard above, saving to your hard-drive and then hosting to your server.

Changes will continue to happen to the website as new ideas come to my head. Once UNO Start begins we will need to have it added in. It will keep evolving. But, once I give you a link it's not expected to change, so you won't have to worry about changing it everywhere in your advertising. I'm trying to keep everything tidy and in order.

OK, I look forward to receiving your info so I can quickly make up the pages for you, and then you can get them out there working for you.

Warm regards
Marilyn

PS... I don't know why that link for the c&p centre didn't work last time... so strange... I suggest you try this link... just remember what I said that it may not show correctly in FF.

Support... Support... Support & More


Support Positions helping the matrix

Well, we were only one week late from the suggested timing! Last night I spent 3 hours with Mike as we organised almost 50 Support Level positions into the matrix.


Who got 'em? Well, I guess you need to go look to find out if it was you! They fell, where they fell.


Where do they come from? Mike has come up with a great idea. First he created 3 DES (DE Support) positions at the top of my matrix. Then, whatever is generated by those positions is then fed back into my matrix as further Support Positions, which in turn supports the members of the matrix. The more the top positions earn, the more DES's will be turned back into the matrix.


Some members received 3, others 2 and some 1. The Support Positions will work in exactly the same way as a real member does... paying $20 per month and generating income throughout the matrix.


This is really super exciting. Congratulations to all of you that received them... I wish so much it could have been everyone.


I want you to know that in some ways this was a backwards step for me (to begin with), but it means I'm now in a position to sew into the matrix more than ever before.


This deal is open to anyone that has 20 members in their group or more.


I believe that BBS is just about to take off. The last number of months has been slow, and I know a lot have given up... that's so sad when they go just before the big rise takes place. 45 - 50 positions have just spilled over into the matrix.


Just a mindset

As I said in my last blog... it's just a mindset. Sometimes a member will write to me and say "I just can't do it"... well you know what... so be it! You get what you believe. If you really believe you can't do it, and we can't change your mind, best off that you don't continue. No-one said it was easy, but with focused attention you will soon have your three.


Remember... if they came and took your kids example??? Yeah, you would soon do it. We can do anything we really want to do.


New updated C & P Centre

I have a new Communication and Promotions Centre with a lot more there for your easy of finding your way around... just go to http://www.madeinfreedom.com/dontworry/c&p.htm . Now, a word or warning... it has come to my attention that when viewed in FF it's all distorted... what a bummer! But, if you view it in IE it's fine. I've tested and tested it, and had others test it also. I wish I could understand how to fix the FF problem... I run into it a fair bit, but so far no-one has been able to tell me what to do. Anyone who knows, please share.... :-)
My thanks go to Ed Askmo, who originally come up with the idea; John Walsh, who took it and run with it, before I put together this model. The old model is still available also which is in a pdf format. It can be found at http://madeinfreedom.com/PDF.pdf . Use whichever suits you... but thing is, get used to using it as you will find it makes everything so much easier.


New Website

OK... it's my intention to have the new website out tomorrow. I will write a special blog about that. I will need to get information from you so that I can quickly make up one for each individual that asks for one. I will not make them for everyone, only those that request one.


Uno Start coming

This will greatly enhance our building efforts, and what I find so great is that there is nothing new to learn. We will be doing exactly the same thing except offering it for just $11 once instead of $20 per month. No confusion. What a boost this will be.


I'm thinking of doing something with this to give us a good headstart... but more on that soon.

That's enough!

Mike joined me in the Conference Room


We were thrilled to have Mike (CEO of BBS) join us in the Conference Room today. He took the time to share with us the story behind BBS Global; also a few of his graphics, and then took us into a training with the new UNO Start system that's coming within a week or two. Those that were present got a sneak preview of the new system.

UNO Start
For a once off $11 it's possible for a new member to make $50 worth of goodies:
  • 1 mth BBS membership; 1 mth Fast Track Marketing system + 1 re-entry = $50
  • or... 2 mths BBS membership + 1 re-entry = $50
  • or... $40 + re-entry = $50

A Sponsor will receive:
. $1 FSB (!)
. $30 for helping them fill their 3x2 matrix
. $17 FSB
= A total of $48

UNO will follow all the principles of BBS and it will be like a training ground for new members.

More on this soon, but get yourself prepared with $11 in your PIG account.

An Apology
I would like to offer a sincere apology for in any way encouraging members to join The Magic Diamond. No, I'm not saying it's not a good program, I really hope it is and that each one of you will receive what was promised. What I'm sorry about, is that I feel I helped take the focus off BBS. TMD sure sounded very good at the time. But with all the false starts, and the price increases, it began to get quite embarrassing.

What I would like to make quite clear here is that BBS has not been responsible for any of the changes. Nope, not at all... it's just kept going as it always has. Gradually the website is being populated with more than the promised products. It takes quite a lot of time to do this because of the graphics and professional look they are working on. But, it's happening, and will continue to happen for a long time yet.

Message Magic
I've given this much thought, and I believe I will be continuing to include it in the website as a tool. I've not got to use it much yet, but when I have I've been more than impressed. As for the Pulsating Matrix... I don't believe it's been proven yet. One of our members took out a membership and was paid 5 days later... $170!!! He was one very happy camper. As for me, I've now paid two subscriptions of $15.50 but only made $16. Only time will tell.

Stay with Professionalism
Many people are still jumping from one program to another... I wonder if it will ever stop, I guess not. The Internet will always be a place offering so much, but the reality is that none of these people are making any money, so they go to the next program... always hoping. The only way you will ever start to reap the benefits is when you find one program and WORK it. Therein lies your true residual income.

BBS is built on the same principles that are being taught in the universities. Strong, solid and proven to work.

Do you know that if each one of us brought 1 new member in per month, for 10 months, each of us would have a full matrix? That's $5,592 per month, month after month, year after year. But we are not asking you to bring in 10... we are asking for just 3. Hey, do you realise that if each of us knuckled down and brought in those 3 new members within our first week, we would have a full matrix in just 6 weeks!

Can this be done? Well, it all depends on the MINDSET! Many of us have a mindset that says we cannot do it. But, listen to this:

"They've Taken My Kids!
"They" have come and taken away your kids. Now, the only way you can ever get your kids back again is to find 3 new members for BBS! Consider it. How long would it take you?

A month? That's pretty good!
A week? Wow, now you're talking!
A day?
Now we are really humming!

I'm saying to you, I don't think it would take more than a few hours if it stood between you and getting your kids back!

So, don't go saying you can't do it. You can. We all can. Imagine if we all changed our mindset together. We really can do this... guaranteed.

Splash Pages and Websites
Once again, another sincere apology. With all the constant changes it's been impossible to keep up with it all. So now, I'm taking a good, hard look at what we have and will get it out to you asap.. hopefully within a couple of days.

Warm regards
Marilyn

The Bad and the Good


The Bad News first!

I want to tell everyone that I will NOT be going ahead with the Feeder Program. Everything was shaping up good until I dug into the legalities of it... and that's where the clanger came... what I was planning ran very close to a pyramid type scheme...ugh!!! No sirreeee, not for me.

Anyway, the exercise was really good to go through. It opened up thoughts and possibilities to me that I'd never considered before and I'm happy about that.


Now The Good News!

Funnily enough, I'd just come to the decision about the Feeder Program when Mike (CEO - BBS) contacted me as he wanted to show something to me. Guess what it was? A Feeder Program.... well, actually it's not a Feeder Program, but it's based on a one-off $11 payment. I'm not sure what you would call it as such, but it looks good from what I've seen.

The one-off $11 actually will pay back $48 in total to the sponsor... + re-entry. Anyway, I won't say too much because I need to see it again... I have a few things I'm unsure of.

Expected launch of it is approximately the end of this week. Hey, don't hold me to that, but you know... somewhere there!

What I like is that it will be totally professional in it's look and appeal... and legal to boot!
I would suggest you make sure you've got $11 in your PIG account!

Nice short one this time :-)


Warm regards
Marilyn
