Can you believe we are only 9 days away until the launch of Market United Kingdom? Our global community of entrepreneurs continues to grow as we officially open for business in the United Kingdom March 1st.  We are at the dawn of a tremendous expansion opportunity – but are you poised to take advantage of this? Are you running the cross-pollination play in your organization, or are you asleep at the wheel and missing out?

Your current organization genealogy already exists transparently in the UK. Utilize calls, counseling’s, corings, conference calls, challenges, webinars, and coach everyone to ask for referrals or contacts who know people in the UK. Ask your partners, customers, family, friends, relatives, classmates, club members, and coworkers who they know that either lives in the UK, travels there for work, has relatives there, or vacations there. If you are not doing this, you’re not doing your job as a UFO!

It is truly amazing to see what goes into events like the 2012 Market America World Conference!  In fact, I’m still amazed - and we’ve done over 40 of them!  It takes 16 hours to load in everything, 8 hours to rehearse, 3 days for the show, and only 5 hours to break everything down and leave the building. It takes a crew of world class individuals to pull off a feat like this – that’s why we work with the best of the best – Ashley Events.

Check out this incredible time-lapse video to see what this year’s World Conference looked like. It’s incredible to see these 4 crazy days compressed into a one and a half minute video clip.

There is a paradigm shift and marketing revolution taking place right now. Social shopping is the future of commerce, and if you want to be successful you must position yourself to capitalize on this paradigm shift. When you are able to do so, you will be leading the parade, rather than following.

Brick and mortar is being replaced by click and order, and we buy what our friends recommend, not what mass media advertising shoves down our throat. Much like retail, the music industry is in a similar state of upheaval, and recording artists are facing major challenges when it comes to revenue. In many cases, artists only make money unless they tour and do concerts.

Music downloads and iTunes is turning the game upside down, and everyone is scrambling to find the perfect solution. Why? Music is so important that redefining its distribution and monetization system is more powerful than TV, iTunes, Google, and major record labels combined.

Music “defines” people more so than any other attribute that can be used in One to One marketing.  Everyone loves music as it is a universal, timeless, and eternal tonic in life that the world will never be without. You don’t have to “sell” music - people already want to buy music!

I believe that the future of the monetization of music lies in two new paradigms: Lifestyle Marketing and Sponsorships / Advertising (similar to NASCAR, TV, or Radio). That may come after subscriptions and ala carte memberships, but it will come. It requires the best functionality, huge traffic, conversions (we have the key to that), and branding. It will happen because it is the only thing that makes sense and has the ability to break the iTunes monopoly.

All of your life you listened to radio and TV for free – but how? Who paid the actors, producers and stars or movie makers or content providers?  Advertising!!! It worked for years because it simply works! Imagine free music for a star tomorrow that you follow and love. How much traffic would that drive? The best part is its demographic-specific, and you can give the advertiser the data on the customers or visitors. I’ll get into the specifics on how it works at a later date, but in the meantime keep NASCAR in the back of your mind.

The media surge for MAWC2012 has been nothing short of spectacular – and the press just keeps on rolling in. Most companies only wish they could get this type of coverage! We get it because we are hot, relevant, cutting edge, interesting, growing fast, and have the support of many credible people who believe in us.

As an entrepreneur and UnFranchise Owner you have many roles. You are a marketer, publicist, brander, public relations director, customer service agent, shop consultant, product broker, online personal shopper, guide on the internet (avatar), trainer, distribution developer, and owner.  How many of these roles can be helped by using the media and press below? How can you reach more people, influence existing partners or customers, duplicate success, position and brand yourself, and develop new contacts? This is how you have to think!

This is great exposure for La La and Market America, as Kim’s blog has over 20 million users per month! La La is an incredible person - she is a gorgeous, smart, driven, loving, entrepreneurially savvy, glamorous trend-setter, and a fast-growing UFO. Showing all of this press and media exposure to friends will help you attract new customers and recruit a new demographic – so what are you waiting for?

Loren posted a picture of the flowers I sent her for Valentine’s Day, and the response on her Facebook page was amazing – just like her. She is such a beautiful and elegant woman, a driven entrepreneur, and a loving mother. She is intelligent, funny, crazy, creative, sexy, and is my WHY!!!

This is absolutely spectacular news! We’ve experienced an amazing amount of press coverage for the 2012 Market America World Conference, Motives, La La Anthony, Eva Longoria, Scottie Pippen, Gloria Estefan and all the other stars who took part in this amazing event. This is a truly exciting time to be a part of Market America and SHOP.COM!

This is your company, your UnFranchise business, and your opportunity. Do you realize how big this is and how difficult it is to generate this much press and excitement?  Do you realize the monetary value of incredible media exposure like this?  This is your future, your deal, your business and your dream. Do you know what to do with this? Businesses dream of receiving exposure like this - have you even gone through them and looked at them? This is your job! This is what a UFO does!

I hope that you are focused on a few key takeaways from last week’s World Conference. A few tasks or focuses that are paramount - such as the three plays that I called and asked all of Market America to run in order to win the Social Shopping “Super Bowl”:

Play 1: During the “shopping seasons” like Christmas holidays, when there is a torrential downpour of online shopping money being spent (hundreds of billions), you need to get your buckets out. You are in the business and simply offer to help everyone (family, friends, coworkers, neighbors, partners, customers) find what they want and save money. Either go online with them or get their list and comparison shop for them and show them the results, the deals, hot deals, comparison shopping, coupons and Cashback. They will love you! That play was called in December but can be run again at Valentines Day.

We talk a lot about the Staircase to Success, and just how easy it is to be successful when you commit to accomplishing those daily, weekly, and monthly result-producing activities. We preach the importance of social media to you at International Convention and World Conference, but there are still some of you who fail to take advantage of all the tools at your disposal.  This is mind boggling!

Market America has a World Class social media team that is here to help you achieve your goals through participation in social networking, but you have to make the effort in order to achieve your goals. Our team has been crunching the numbers, and it seems that only around 7% of our UnFranchise owners are actually FOLLOWING the official Market America and SHOP.com Social Media channels. This should be 100%! All in! How can we be successful as a company if you’re not fully invested in making a commitment to doing the little things?

One of the easiest result-producing activities you can do is to LIKE or FOLLOW our Social Media accounts on Facebook and Twitter. The MA social media team is one of the best in the industry, and if you are not engaging with them and sharing their messaging then you are missing a golden opportunity to help yourself and your business! This is a no-brainer!
