As part of the November promotion, any Lightyear Representative gets to choose one of their free phones. Choices include a new LG phone or the w315 Motorola phone. You can also get the Motorola Razr for a $50 upgrade. Typically they sell for $100 to $150. That offer does end tonight at midnight since it was a November promotion. The $49.95 sign up fee however, is through the end of the year. Check out the free phones at MyWirelessRep
Note: If the $50 RAZR upgrade does not show online when enrolling, simply call or email me tomorrow with your Representative ID Number and Lightyear Wireless Account Number and I will see that they adjust your payment, so it is only $50.
I ran across this article about a cell phone gun that was recovered from an organized crime gang. Looks like a cell phone (well maybe not) but shoots 4 rounds! I don’t know about you, but that’s not like any cell phone I’ve seen for years. If I saw that, I would be immediately suspicious. It does look like the types of cell phones that were around in the late 1990’s and perhaps that’s when this gun was manufactured. Probably the manufacturers of this ‘gun’ thought that style of cell phone would be around for a while and they could get long life out of that gun. So if you see someone walking down the street with an old style looking cell phone; better look out! Especially if they slide it open in the middle.

Well today begins the official start of the holiday season - although I swear each year it seems to start earlier and earlier. In fact, Urban Dictionary has a new word call “Thankshallowistmas” which of course combines the three and implies that the season really starts in October. No matter when it starts, it’s underway now and you might need a gift or two.
A cell phone makes a really good gift, particularly for someone who doesn’t have one or whose cell phone contract is expiring soon. And if you join up with MyWirelessRep before the end of the year (for $49.95) you get a free cell phone. There is no requirement with this free cell phone that you use it yourself; you can give it as a gift to someone. The cell phone has to be activated by its recipient and they can choose from a variety of wireless plans at Lightyear Wireless. So stuff one of those in a stocking!
And be sure to take some time to turn off that cell phone so that you can enjoy some time with your loved ones. Yes you need that cell phone, but you don’t need it 100% of the time. Take some time to enjoy your family and loved ones. I decided!
When you look at phones like the iPhone or even a Blackberry, it’s easy to get feature overload. Some people become overwhelmed by the sheer number of features on higher end phones. Even mid range phones are becoming somewhat feature laden. While cell phone providers and manufactures are nudging consumers into more feature heavy phones, not all consumers want all those features.
Many customers just want a simple phone to use. These types of customers might be those who don’t spend very much time on the phone and just need to use a phone for what it was intended for: a direct communication device. Taking pictures, surfing the web, and sending email are all features that were unassociated with phones until recently. Land phones don’t have any of those features. A lot of customers are just happy with simpler phones. That’s why MyWirelessRep offers a full range of phones - from the simple to the sophisticated and high end (BlackBerry). Something for everyone! Lightyear Wireless has not forgotten about those folks. Apple has apparently.
It seems the recession is dragging everything down, but not the cell phone market. At least not so far. According to this report from Wireless Week, 309 million units were sold in the U.S. Market during the 3rd quarter (July, August, and September). That’s up 6% from the same quarter last year. Anyone interested in a home based business should be clawing to get into this market - perhaps one of the last growing markets. And you can for only $49 until 12/31/08 with MyWirelessRep. Oh, a side note on the report cited in that article. Apple is only in 7th place among phone manufacturers so despite all the hoopla over their iPhone product, it’s certainly not the best selling cellular phone product on the market.
There are two kinds of network marketing companies: Supply driven and Demand driven. Supply driven companies have plenty of product but have to create the demand. They do this by attempting to convince everyone why they should use their product. Demand driven companies other the hand, already deal in a product or service that is in high demand. Sometimes it takes years to create demand for a product; even if the product is great and works wonders. In the meantime, if you are in a network marketing company that is supply driven, you may be faced with inadequate demand.
It’s the demand driven companies like MyWirelessRep that offer good value in the products and service they offer and they will be more likely to stand the test of time. Yes supply driven companies do survive and sometime thrive. But which would you like to have?
Have you ever heard that from a network marketing company? Is it really ever possible for a product to sell itself? Hardly, and in fact that is one of the 7 Great Lies of Network Marketing. No product ever really sells itself. At some level, someone has to do some selling to get it off the shelf or off the website. The truth is, however, some things are easier to sell than others. While nothing really ’sells itself’ wouldn’t you rather sell something that nearly everyone uses and that nearly everyone feels they need? Try MyWirelessRep. Almost everyone has a cell phone and will continue to use them even in these difficult economic times. The cell phones and plans may not “sell themselves” but they’re close.
You’ve heard the term ‘fruits of his/her labor’ before haven’t you? What that is referring to is a long term commitment that after some time gives its payout. In terms of fruit, think of what would happen if you planted a pear tree in your yard. At first it would be a small sapling and in fact for two years it would be just a small tree not bearing any fruit. And during that time, you would have to pay close attention to it to see that it grows. You would have to attend to propping it up during storms and making sure it has enough water during the dry season. But once the pear tree becomes mature, it will begin to bear fruit. Not only once, but season after season. Once it becomes a full grown tree, it will require less attention and will increasingly be a provider for you, providing you with more and more fruit.
I’m sure you see the metaphor here when you consider what happens with a home based business. They generally don’t just take off right away. They require nurturing and lots of attention. Then one day, they will be profitable and give you the fruit of your labor.
One piece of advice often given to people who are starting a home based business (or any business for that matter), is: Know your target customer. That means get to know and completely understand who will be interested in buying your product or service. In most instances, that takes some thought. Most people starting out a home bases business have to spend a lot of time analyzing and role playing their ideal customer so they know the mindset of how their customers think.
This is one step that you can nearly eliminate with a MyWirelessRep home business. Practically everyone uses a cell phone, so there is no thinking about who might use the product or service. That leaves you with the time to think about HOW you are going to sell to that huge market. Selling to a huge market is much easier that selling to a micro market especially when the product and service is so unique.
