Before ADVOCARE, my life was completely different. A working mom with threechildren, I was challenged with being overweight and a lack of energy. Iweighed 223 pounds and was wearing a size 20W. I had been using anotherweight-loss program but wasn’t getting the results I wanted. Then I went to amixer held by Todd and Jacquie Pierce in August 2004. From that day, my lifehas drastically changed. My husband Scott and I instantly began experiencinggreat results. With MNS® Maximum Appetite Control, CATALYSTTM, ADVOCARESPARKTM and the Meal Replacement Shakes, I had more energy, and in just afew months I had to go out and buy new clothes! For the first time in 12 yearsI could buy clothes in "Misses" instead of “Plus Size.” About every 3 months Ibuy new jeans in a smaller size. My kids are so happy that we’re doing morethings together.

So far, I’ve lost 60 pounds and wear a loose size 10. The energy I’ve gained isterrific! ADVOCARE has given me a new meaning in life. With the increasedenergy, I’ve been able to spend more time with my children instead of headingto the nearest couch. My goal before summer begins is to drop one more size;with my rejuvenated spirit and ADVOCARE, I know I’ll achieve it in a shortamount of time!

Your success in ADVOCARE isdirectly and inseparably tied toyour planned, persistent andproductive daily activity. Wecall it the “DMO” (DailyMethod of Operation), butwhatever you call it, there isno doubt your short- and long-term progress is found here.

PLANNED: Each night beforebedtime, take a blank sheet of paper and plan yourADVOCARE activity for thenext day. Define precisely

how much time you have for ADVOCARE and exactly wherethose minutes and hours are in the day. Decide how you willactually use the time to retail and recruit. The methods for thatactivity are phone calls, personal contacts, mixers, 3-way callsand 2-on-1 presentations. Determine the people you willcontact, why you are contacting them and what you will say.Write it all down on that blank sheet of paper and you will wakeup “employed” the next day. Remember, proper planningpromotes productive performance!

PERSISTENT: The focused, disciplined use of your time for thosespecific activities will be where the rubber meets the road. Lifeis filled with daily distractions that can, if you allow them, stealaway those important moments for getting results and achievinggoals. Working “on purpose” and holding yourself accountablefor doing what you planned is a very simple and powerfulmindset; develop and reinforce it daily with action.

PRODUCTIVE: Maximize your best moments and hours withresult-producing, goal-achieving activities - defined as anythingwhere you are talking to people about the ADVOCARE incomeopportunity and/or the ADVOCARE products, and asking themto take the next step. Obviously time is required for deliveringproduct, ordering product, returning calls, handlingissues/problems, bookkeeping, etc. HOWEVER, put 80% of your efforts into the activities that move people forward, and find other moments for the rest. The real business happensface-to-face with prospects: stay there as much as you possibly can.

Your better future is in your hands!

During the last seven years, wehave learned that Membersstrive for individualrecognition. In fact, recognitionamong peers can have greaterimpact than a paycheck. Thekey for leaders is to keep itsimple and reward those whodeserve it. When Membersare rewarded among theirpeers, it can lift them toanother level of confidence.

As a leader, there aremany ways to motivateand reward your teamthrough your own

incentives. First,determine the goal of the incentive or reward.

Several types of incentives are possible: P/GV (personal/group volume)incentives, override growth incentives, recruiting and retailing incentivesand annual team awards. Choose an incentive that best meets your goal.Next, set a timeframe for the incentive with firm start and end dates.Gloria and I typically initiate a team incentive from one Success School tothe next, depending on the timeframe. Three to four months is usually agood choice. Another great way to help grow your team is to hold a majorconference call and empower your leaders to share in the unveiling of theincentive. This builds enthusiasm as well as encourages shared ownershipfor motivating the team.

Reward and recognition are vital, and are the most important aspects of an incentive. It’s important to choose rewards that get people excited.We have given out t-shirts, books, dinners, Success School tickets,trophies, special plaques and weekend vacations. We’ve awarded Members the opportunity to share a photo with important leaders.Whatever you choose, it should be special, fun and have wide appealthroughout your organization.

Lastly, celebrate success as a team. If at all possible, reward individuals in front of all team members. You really can mold a team with the right atmosphere.

Some of our incentives have been very successful; some have not. We learnby trial and error, and so will you. Don’t worry about spending a lot ofmoney – it’s not the amount you spend but the “buy-in” you receive fromyour team members. Keep it simple. Empower your leaders to duplicatethe reward system and you will build a team committed to excellence.

SUCCESS IN THE SOUTH

“It’s changed my life, bothphysically and financially.”– Ann Van Anne, TX

In October 2002, I was a little overweight andalways felt tired. My doctor handed me theADVOCARE card of Alison Blum, and I placed a$2,100 order the very same night I wasintroduced to the products. I started on HerbalCleanse, SPARKTM Energy Drink and MealReplacement Shakes and quickly noticed achange. In just three months, I had lost 25pounds. As a single mom with two kids myschedule is always busy, but with ADVOCARE Ihave incredible energy and never felt better! I’vekept the weight off with daily MNS® Max AppetiteControl and CATALYSTTM supplements, SPARKTM

Energy Drinks and Meal Replacement Shakes. I also absolutely love the entire DefiniteDifference® skincare line. It really helps me lookmy best. The products have been so amazingthat my mother and my daughter both use theproducts too: we’re a three-generationADVOCARE family!

Once I saw the power behind to products, itdidn’t take long for me to realize that here wasan incredible business opportunity. I’m building a very successful business from home withoutsacrificing what I prize above all else, time withmy children. I’ve achieved 3-Star Gold and amshooting for Ruby by the end of the year.ADVOCARE truly changed my life, and the futurenever looked brighter.
