A Review of ITV Ventures

Here's an unbiased review of ITV Ventures from I-Newswire

Seven years ago, ITV Direct positioned itself to be first the turnkey infomercial provider in America. After several successful infomercials later and millions of products sold, ITV Direct created ITV Ventures in 2006 to help individuals make money from home selling their line of successful dietary supplements, cosmetics and books on natural health.

(Here's how it works, guys:)

The entrepreneur who decides to work with them, called an IBO, waits for calls to be routed to their home phone by prospects who have seen an infomercial and are interested in buying. The IBO works from a script, and can make up to 100% profit from all the products they sell.

The benefits to this work at home opportunity are numerous. It is a lead-based program where all the IBO has to do is sell the product to customers who have all already expressed interest in one of the numerous products available. Many of them have already bought these products in the past, so are familiar with the process.

It is suggested that the IBO starts off working one product, but new options are available for IBOs who are comfortable switching scripts and can sell several different products. These options allow an IBO to handle calls from a customer who has seen any one of the numerous ITV infomercials.

Other added improvements this month include a new chat window, which allows an IBO to get answers to their questions in real time, from any other IBO currently working who sees the question.

(Here's a really really AWESOME part:)

Because the program doesn't involve cold calling or garnering customer's interest, it is much easier to begin seeing a profit because people calling are already interested in the product.

You also can see large residuals without recruiting anyone if you wish, though you will make income off of the people you sign up.

All you need to start is:

  • A little money to begin
  • An internet connection
  • A landline phone with a headset
  • A quiet place to work.

You will get all the support you need from other IBOs and other materials to help you out.

Before you sign up, find out all your can about the person who you are signing up under, as they will pay a big part in your success. If possible, try to find other people who are using the same upline as you and find out how well the support is. This makes all the difference in the world. The right upline is an important key to success.

(They're talking about me, guys! And don't worry--I'll give you soooo much support!)

Many IBOs have reported income starting to come in within a couple of weeks, changing their fates quickly.

ITV Ventures saves the time of building a customer base and finding a medium for advertising.

Television is one of the FASTEST and EASIEST ways to sell products, AND it is also expensive. ITV Ventures allows their IBOs to remove their high overhead on advertising costs by doing all the advertising for them and allowing them to concentrate on selling.

ITV Ventures is an easy program to begin, backed by a company with a commitment to improving people's lives and increasing your bottom line.

Prosperity and Freedom!

10 Things You Can Do To Be Effective With Your Time

If you find yourself constantly frustrated at the end of the day, with a pile of things that need to be done and wondering why you weren't able to do it, you're not alone. Plenty of people suffer from an inability to make the maximum use of their time, but there is a solution!

By implementing these simple time management tips in every area of your life, you'll be surprised at what you can accomplish – and how quickly things will get done – every day.

1)Know what you want – set goals.Since you can't change time itself, you need to change how you work with time. This can be done by making small personal goals to start with, moving to larger goals as you progress in your time management skills. For example, set a goal to not check your personal email while at work for one week. At the end of the week, evaluate whether you achieved that goal and add another one or try again.

2)Do what you need to – create a plan.This is a more overarching goal, but something that can be implemented as part of a plan for time management success. For example, your plan for trying these time management tips might be to increase your productivity or to lower your stress levels.

3)Learn about yourself – where are you losing time?For a week, track what you do every day. Take note of your activities, how long they took, and even the breaks you take for a personal phone call or for lunch. After a week, look at the areas that took up your time, and evaluate where you wasted time that could have been given over to more productive activities.

4)Use the available tools – write it down.Time management tools are an effective way to give concreteness to your goals and the tasks you need to accomplish. Whether it's through a daytimer or a computer program, physically manage your time by listing the tasks you need to do now and in the future.

5)Keep perspective – prioritize.Each morning, look at the tasks you need to accomplish and prioritize them. Figure out which ones are urgent and which ones can honestly wait if you don't have time for them. Do the important things first – don't put them off, or you'll be stressed and rushed at the end of the day.

6)Keep moving – create a routine.If you have an established routine, you'll be more able to complete your goals each day. When crises arise, move with them and deal with them – but don't let them distract you for the rest of the day. Once you've dealt with the problem, get back on task.

7)Don't dawdle – set time limits.If you only need an hour to check your email, set a timer for an hour until you can get used to that amount of time. A day can be easily wasted on one thing if you let it, so this will ensure that you don't waste extra time surfing around that could be spent on other projects.

8)Ask for help – delegate.You don't need to do it all yourself – no person is an island! Allow others to carry some of the burden for you, but be willing to help them along the way – that way your creative hand is still in the pot. You need to decide to delegate, and then just ask. What's the worst that could happen, someone would say no? It's not the end of the world.

9)Know yourself – don't waste time waiting.Whether it's standing in line at the grocery store, waiting for a doctor's appointment, or even if you're sitting in a lobby waiting for a meeting, realize that you don't need to spend that time waiting. With a task list set out, bring something with you at all times that you can work on – a report to read, a notepad, your checkbook, or your PDA to check your email. Keep moving, keep working on those tasks. Don't let a moment go to waste.

10)Be realistic – don't get discouraged.

If you've set realistic goals and you've followed the tips outlined here, there may still be some days that you just can't get everything done. That's okay! There are only 24 hours in a day, and all you can do is work with them and manage yourself. Time doesn't change – you can, and that's really the best thing you can do. Realize that some days will be successes and others may be a little more disappointing. That's life – and tomorrow is a new day!

10 Reasons to Start an MLM Business (Like ITV Ventures)

Here are some AWESOME reasons to get involved with an MLM business like ITV Ventures:

1. Small Amount of Risk:

There is a certain amount of inherited risk involved when you become an entrepreneur. We are confronted with losing money, wasting time, not being in profit right away, etc. In a traditional brick and mortal business, the startup cost associated with opening that business is what holds many people back from becoming the creators of their own destiny.

People do not like risk and try to avoid it by all means. We'd like a "guaranteed bet" and stay within "our safe zone". In business, you don't eliminate risks you learn to minimize them. The advantage of starting an MLM Program is that there is a small risk to get started. With a couple of hundred dollars, it is possible to get started with a company of your choice, marketing products that you consume already. The amount of financial commitment is insignificant compared to that of traditional business.

2. A Huge Demand for Good, Quality Products:

There are a myriad of network marketing companies that promote very good products. If I were considering a company to get involved with, I would always ask myself:

Would I still consume these products/services if there were no opportunity to market them? Do these products bring any benefits to a consumer besides the opportunity to make money? Would I bring "value" to my customers if they consume these products?

Every business needs repeat customers. Distributors only get paid when they have consumers for their products and when these customers continue that consumption,
then that creates the money flow.

3. Residual Income:

I am sure that you pay your gas, your electricity, and your phone bill every single month. These are the types of services that for the most part provide an ongoing stream of residual income for these companies. The greatest advantage of an MLM Program is that it gives you an opportunity to enjoy residual income just like those companies do. When the initial effort of getting a new customer is completed, you can enjoy the residual part of that business relationship.

We are so used to trading our time for wedges that we often times don't see the potential residual income of an MLM Affiliate Program. By direct selling your products, you can also claim your share of the residual income pie.

4. The Income Potential:

There is no cap on how much money you can generate. In my corporate jobs, my
big limitation was that regardless how hard I worked for these companies; my income was tied to a "market standard" for someone with my skills. In an MLM Program, that's not the case.

It is up to you to decide how much you want to earn. An MLM company doesn't hold you back in the same way the corporate environment does. As long as you have the skills set of a trained network marketer, you make whatever income based on your stamina, dedication, and your willingness to help others. The skills set is key.


Once you trained yourself to become a marketer, you can market anything you choose and generate that income you seek.

5. No Employees to Hire:

By far, this is a clear advantage over traditional businesses. An mlm affiliate program is a business of people independently working together. Without any employees, it's possible to build a business right from home. This industry gives you that added benefit, be in business without employees concerns, by having a network of independent business owners working together towards a common goal.

6. No Inventory:

Traditionally Network Marketing companies would have distributors stack up on inventory. This concept alone has given the industry a bad wrap for years. However, modern companies do capitalize on the technology and tools we have in place. We have:

  • Internet Telephony
  • The Internet
  • Drop Shipping Ability
  • Consumer Leads
  • Conference Lines
  • Web Conference
  • High Speed Internet Access

Not having to inventory products will make your business more agile to any market
condition.

7. Low Operating Costs:

The network marketing model makes possible to run a business at low costs compared to any other business model. This is where your upline's support should come in. A good upline mentor should allow you to piggyback on his expertise, on his knowledge, on his leads, and help you generate the funds to pay off your initial investment and get in profit early in the life of your business.

8. Leverage:

Your MLM Program is a:

  • People business
  • Business of appointments
  • Business of helping consumers find what they have the need for
  • Business of helping others create businesses.

You reap the rewards by leveraging the efforts of those you help. This develops a collective mindset that promotes "win-win" relationships.

9. Portability:

With the advent of technology, we can do today what distributors 15 years ago could not do and that's to make our business portable. We now have a phone technology that allows you to take your telephone and move it anywhere you like transparently to your customers.

As long as you have access to the Internet via DSL or Cable, you can take your computer, your phone, and continue doing business while you are on the road, on vacation, or visiting relatives whether that be in another city or another country!

10. The Attainable Freedom:

Imagine having a productive business in network marketing providing you with a lifestyle that only the rich and famous enjoy. When all the pieces are in place, the life of a marketer can be very fulfilling indeed. That's the dream every new distributor chases and it is only attainable when there is a clear understanding of how to get there and when your marketing skills are sharp.

It is not just the money, but the fulfillment of a lifestyle that makes an MLM Affiliate Program the best business to get in and your skills is what make it happen, period!

Time Management and ITV Ventures: Prioritize Your Daily Actions

From the desk of Wendy Hearn..

Many people have trouble fitting everything they would like to do into each day. Modern life can be pretty demanding when it comes to keeping up with our professional and personal commitments, never mind putting some hours aside for leisure time.

However, with a little forethought and a little structure you can make much better use of your time. The secret is to identify what really needs to be done in each day. If you look closely at how you spend your days you will probably find that there are many things that aren't really that important. You need to do whatever it takes to ensure that these never get in the way of the things that really need to be done.

So, at the beginning of each day or even the night before you need to sit down and think about what needs to be achieved from your day. I encourage you to write down the things that must be achieved and you could also make a list of things of lesser importance that maybe you would like to do, but aren't essential.

You need to prioritize the most important things you need to do and schedule them in as the first things you need to do in the day. This is a good idea for two reasons. First, it is good to get the important things done first. Second, you are likely to be more focused and energetic first thing in the day.

The important thing is that you do not allow any interruptions to get in the way of what really needs to be done. Once these tasks have been completed you can then think about other things you may want to do with your remaining time in a more relaxed manner.

Good Stuff! Thanks, Wendy!
