Giveaway: Win Tickets to the 2010 Market America International Convention Featured

The importance of building from event to event, and being at Market America's International Convention (August 5-8, 2010) is monumental and can’t be quantified. In fact, there is no substitute for it. There are so many new developments that take place; technology, promotional campaigns, new releases, products and building techniques that it is difficult to summarize. In fact, it takes months and even then there is a lot lost in translation and duplication is diluted as a result.The 2010 Market America International Convention will be here before you know it – and another magic moment will happen when that billionth of a volt sparks across the your cerebral cortex and you start to see the light. How do you quantify the effect and power of this experience? You can’t!It is not only what happens during the general sessions or at the breakout trainings, but in between meetings with the people you meet — the discussions, the relationships and friendships that develop. It is more than a seminar or just learning; it is a total experience, it is the reality of the business.Market America is moving fast. Are you ready?  Here are a few tips to help you out during this exciting time.

  • Plan to leverage your growth by utilizing the 2010 Market America International Convention by setting goals for yourself.
  • Set a measurable goal for the number of new people you plan to bring – remember, you’re filling your bean jar (link to bean jar post).
  • Duplication is the key -- there is too much going on to have to spend countless hours educating yourself and then bringing everyone else up to speed.

By getting people there, you expose them to a level of understanding that they would never be able to attain without being there. By setting goals for yourself and achieving them, you succeed in the process because you’ve met your own goals and helped bring someone closer to achieving their own financial freedom.  In the process, you become a "hopeless success" as a result!So my point is simple. With all of this excitement and growth, are you ready? Are you prepared? Do you have the necessary tickets you need so that you can experience the growth you’re looking to achieve?  Project out four months in the future, because he who hesitates is lost, and of course nothing could be truer than this: "you cannot lead where you will not go, and you cannot teach what you do not know!" Don't be stuck on a hamster wheel in the business, make this your year! To help get you started, I’m running a special giveaway – two lucky winners will win one (1) ticket each (valued at $200 each) to the 2010 Market America International Convention that is coming up in a couple of months. Entering is pretty simple.

  1. Become a fan of Market America on Facebook.
  2. Become a fan of JR Ridinger on Facebook.
  3. Leave a comment on this post and tell me how many International Conventions you have attended.
  4. Send me an email once you’ve completed all of the above requirements at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it and include your username, email address that you posted under.

Remember: The difference between success and failure is really simple. The individual who succeeds simply does what the individual who doesn't succeed does not do, PERIOD.

Keep growing! I believe in you.

    It would be amazing to win! I have been an Unfranchise Owner since September 2009. Putting all of my effort into educating others and watching the business grow has been incredible! The obstacle I am currently forced to deal with is lack of finances. I know it will be changing soon, I just hope the tickets are not sold out by the time I can purchase some. Thank you for the opportunity to possibly win JR! We all love you and Loren!

    The concept of two is genius. I have learned the hard way that to build two teams is there for a reason. when I was in MA in 2002 we did not follow that concept and I could not understand why I was not getting the support that I needed. Now that I am on a Team that believes in the team approach I can see myself growing more and more everyday. The team is everything and to build deep is to build strong..Thanks Jr., Lauren and the rest of the E Team

    I attended last year as a new distributor! I enjoyed it and learned alot!! This year has been a tough one - but continue with my head up and looking forward! Having a great team and great products help.. Extras have gone to my husband's chemo and raidation, medication and treatment. But I believe MA products have kept him stable as he can be and still alive to see his children play sports, play in concerts and plays, and have their art work displayed at the KIA Institute downtown.. Those have truly been my rewards. That's what this is all about !!

    Hello JR.

    I would really LOVE to get those tickets. My wife and I have been in the business for 18 months, and have attended two conventions, however, I decided to quit my job to do a 90 fast track in order to achieve our goals. I just got my tickets for the NeutraMetrix training, and we are hoping to be able to afford all our expenses until our 3 month period is up, however, CONVENTION is one of our goals (WE don't like to miss any) but we are unsure if we will be able to purchase the tickets this year.

    Since i started 2007, i never missed any convention. I attended about 3 International Conventions (all magic moments) & 3 World Conference. I am always looking forward for it and it gets better and better. It's been 5 years since i left home (Philippines) i do miss my family a lot & i've been wanting to see them for a long long time, & when they annouce the expansion in the Philippines last February 2010, i was so happy and excited. One day my husband asked me if he gives me a free trip to the Philippines during International Convention this coming august, which one i will choose...I honestly said i cannot replace or exchange international convention for going back to my native land.. thats how big the impact and my believe to our international convention. Because i understand the concept of this events, "let me do the things i have to do now so i can spend all the time on the things i love to do."
    It will be great winning a FREE ticket so i can bring more guest.:)

    There is nothing like being "in the moment" at the International Convention. This will be the fourth Convention I am attending. I am bringing my team with me, as well as... Mr. Mo Mentum. We are on fire. Can't wait any longer!!!

    Would love to get a free ticket - Hubby and I want to go again this year. We went last year (our first year with Market America) and were so blown away and had a great time and met a lot of wonderful people, including people on our team that we had not yet met face to face. We both want to go again this August and hope to bring some others with us. I just saw your post on facebook. Of course, I'm a fan.

    I have attended 4 International convetions and 5 Leadership/World conferences, the last one I did miss & it has hurt my business. It was very sadening seeing what was going on and not being there sharing in the excitement! The only way to grow is to attend the events and have 4 new people from your left & right there as well! See you in Greensboro!

    This will be my first International Convention. I am very excited about attending this. I went to my first World Conference in January and the fire was lit in my belly. I have sponsored 2 distributors since then and will hopefully be sponsoring 2 more before International Convention. I cannot tell you what a change World COnference made in my life and my business. I tell every distributor I meet that they must get to the conventions in order to grow their businesses. I am so excited about my business and where I am heading. I am excited that I am helping others work towards meeting their financial dreams as well.

    I have gone to Convention and Leadership School annually since 1998. I won the President's Challenge at Leadership in 1998. Since 2003, my parents have lived with me. My father died at 98 in 2005. He was the oldest Market America distributor. Now my mother is 98 and she I am sure is the oldest distributor. I have been so busy caring for her I have not done as much with my business as I want to. I am retired and still look at Market America as my business. Seeing how this business has evolved is both exciting and amazing.
