Truestar Opportunity (link to my Truestar Site)

If you haven't already heard we are finally launching the BodyProud Social Initiative and relaunching the FAME World Tour! We spent years developing the concepts and the last 5-6 months strategizing with our mentor Casey Combden on how to use it to boost earnings -- for the entire team -- through Truestar. And now we are ready to press "GO"! 

As a result, the Truestar presentation is brand new. The response from the test group has been great. People are really excited to be a part of Truestar, as a result. 

Before we go any further… When NOW is a good time for us to show you this plan? We'll do it for you live, individually or in a group. 

If you like it, you can use it for yourself, you can modify it, or you can send people to hear it direct from us. 

Important Details You Should Know:

The maximum number of people you can have in your Truestar team is 29,523. Seems like a huge number, but it's NOT when you're a part of this initiative. You see, when our events were in high gear we inspired millions of people around the world to focus on themselves. Now, we're ready to do it again, but on a higher level… and with a full team, which can include you. That's why we are reaching out again. We want to see if you are interested in stepping up to the plate and in sharing in its success. 

In addition to the money that you can make, you also get to be part of an entire movement. You can help lead the charge. You can share your message, be featured in the spotlight, empower others, or even host or promote an event that's part of the FAME World Tour. 

Paul Zane Pilzer in his book the Wellness Revolution, talks about Corporations, government and people at large recognizing that health and wellness is one of the most important factors impacting society, especially with the obesity rates and rising medical costs. This system allows you to be part of the solution and benefit from this industry that is currently an over $500 Million dollar opportunity for the right people to get involved, in the right fashion!

Financial Goals

We have very specific goals and that is to reach the $50,000 bonus by July 31st. Doing so also unlocks our qualification to earn the bonus pool. When this program was in effect last year we qualified right away and received a share of the 1% that was allocated in the bonus pool. At the time the company was making $300,000 per month and that was a nice addition to our monthly income. Well the new bonus pool is even better. Once you qualify 2% of the monthly income -- which is now close to $2,000,0000! -- is split. 

Why are we telling you this? Because if YOU make it YOUR GOAL as well, then that helps us, and we'll help you! 

And of course, if this is your goal then you'll also earn your MERCEDES Bonus and $1,000/month LIFESTYLE Bonus.

$50,000 sound good, doesn't it? Let's do it! 

Opportunity Knocks

To achieve that goal, or any other financial goal AND/OR to get social and empower others, check this out:

1. If you are ready to activate your business; if it excites you to inspire others to take charge of their health, to nourish their bodies and enjoy life; if you believe in yourself and have a message to share; if you want to be part of our brand new initiative that is designed to revolutionize society, empower people and help make dreams come true, then jump in… 

HOST YOUR OWN 90 DAY TRANSFORMATION. HOST YOUR OWN PARTY, SEMINAR, WORKSHOP. HOST YOUR OWN BODYPROUD SHOWCASE. We'll guide you and support you. 

                                                                Truestar Free Health Portal
Best of all, they'll all be part of the new FAME World Tour!

2. Doing so generates money through Truestar (we'll teach you the formula) and sets you on the path to earn points as part of the BodyPROUD Ambassadorship program.

3. After months of behind-the-scenes prep work, we are finally turning on the engines now. Since we have no spots left at the top of our matrix, each time someone new joins our team it is going to benefit one of you, who is a product of the product. 

Success Requires Commitment

1. Commitment to you: you need to commit to your own personal development --> you need to nourish your body, you need to focus on you. You NEED to profile yourself and take the challenge. You need to lead by example. This is important because belief and conviction sells, not fluff. 

2. Commitment to those you wish to join your team: you need to lead by example. You must profile yourself, or even take the challenge, and be a product of the product. Doing so, you develop your own "story" about how Truestar changed your life, or enhanced how you feel. Having your story encourages others to follow your lead and develop their story. 

3. Commitment to your team: you need to commit to your team AND they need to commit to you --> it's simple in any business system, the way you earn money is if the people under you and over you are supporting you. That's why we chose Truestar --> because now you help your team by nourishing yourself! And since Truestar's products are quality ones, they actually do make a difference in how you look and feel, and for your long term health. Win-win!

Our Suggestion for Your Success

1. Watch our new webinar presentation so as to determine whether or not it's something that you want to show others as is. If so, we'll show it for you. If not, we'll help you modify it so that it's perfect for you. 
We'll help you figure out your story, your "why", your dreams, and then together strategize and determine how you should proceed. 

2. If you still have products left from your initial order, we'll teach you strategies on how to earn money using them as marketing materials. 

3. Determine which products mean something to you, which products you think others will enjoy. Then use these products as marketing materials. You get to reorder them for 40% off. John McFadden taught us his method "Simply hand out 3-5 packets of TrueLean Extreme with your business card, tell them to weigh themselves on Day 1 and Day 6, and not to do anything different (unless they want to). He says everyone is seeing results and it's converting to sales and enrolments. (and his team is always at the top of the Leader Board)

Activating Yourself

1. Share our Facebook Group with new people on your team. This is where we will be posting times for live webinars and live meetings. This is both for you, everyone on your team, and anyone you wish to join your team. https://www.facebook.com/groups/GoTruestar/

2. As per Truestar's policies, accounts that are inactive for 6 months or more are being closed down, come May 2013. You will be able to jump back in at any time for only a $20 re-activation fee. The one thing to consider though, is that your position in the matrix will be lost. You will get the next available spot. As you came in during pre-launch, going inactive may cost you a valuable position. Even if you're not into "working" the business right now, all you have to do to stay active is nourish yourself (ie. use the vitamins or protein). Do the vitamin profile and see what is actually recommended for you. Or take the Challenge and really transform yourself… become the artist to your physique… build yourself your own superhero body.

3. Get updates direct from Casey Combden, our mentor, a Human Potential Specialist and one of the top earners in network marketing! He has offered to share regular training advice with everyone on our team who opts in. If you'd like to take advantage of that, let us know and we'll add you to the list.

The Top 10 Benefits of Strength Training for Women

Here is an article I have on my fitnessgenerator site. One of the problems I noticed when I have trained women in the gym is the self confidence....it happens with men too, and I tell them the samething, no one is interested if you cannot lift this or that, or dont feel pressure because everyone else in the gym may be in better shape. NO ONE is born that way. True some women, and men have to work harder than others, but EVERYONE still has to work at it. 

So don't worry about trying to look like this person or that person, and set small goals for yourself like I want to reduce my cholesterol level by this date, or I want to fit in this dress or pair of jeans, by this date. Whatever it is, set yourself a goal. Not everyone is meant to be a size 6, 4, or 2, but everyone is MEANT to be healthier and happier with themselves!!!!! 

Train Hard! Train Smart!




"Women are finally warming up to free weights, and it is a beautiful thing!" It's true that women are recognizing strength training as a major player in the battle against fat loss. Here are the top 10 benefits women receive from strength training: 

1) Increased Metabolic Rate- adding muscle increases our metabolism naturally. 

2) Increasing and Restoring Bone Density- prevent and fight osteoporosis by building strong bones. 

3) Increased Lean Muscle Mass- each pound of lean muscle mass burns 35-50 calories per day. 

4) Injury Prevention- a solid foundation strengthens our bones, ligaments, and tendons. 

5) Improved Balance- strong leg and core muscles help stabilize us. 

6) Decreased Risk of Coronary Disease- strength training can reduce blood pressure and cholesterol levels. 

7) Aids Rehabilitation and Recovery- the best way to strengthen and recover from an injury is to slowly build your strength around the injured area. 

8) Enhanced Performance in Sports, Exercise and Life In General- climbing stairs, carrying the kids, or walking with your spouse becomes more enjoyable. 

9) Aging Gracefully- strong muscles build a strong body. Strength training and fitness can help keep aging bodies in well-working condition. 

10) Feeling Better and Looking Better- strength training reduces overall body fat, it tones our muscles and it builds confidence. 

These top 10 benefits all come for free when you begin a proper strength training routine. Be sure to check with your doctor before beginning any new fitness program.

Fitness Star International

YOU spread the word, WE spread the wealth!!!

If you know anyone who is interested in fitness or made a total body transformation with proper nutrtion and exercising and wants to do something with it, then Fitness Star international is where you should be. Great opportunities await you, as a competitor, promoter or sponsor!

Help me spread the word in 2013 about Fitness Star International. It's your time to shine!!

We here at Fitness STAR understand the costs and expenses associated with competing which is why we are continuously trying to configure NEW innovative ways to create PROFIT SHARING opportunitie...s for our athletes, models, and Fitness STAR Network members.

To showcase our Model Search in the best light possible we had a professional video team create WWW.FitnessSTARPromoVideo.com

The video brilliantly captures the feel and experience everyone gets from participating in our Model Search events; however it failed to illustrate the opportunities we are working to develop through the Magazine, the Network, and the Agency.

What many fail to recognize is that Fitness STAR Model Search is ONLY one division of Fitness STAR International.

We recognized the need to create a tool not only for our own sales reps but what could additionally be used by all our supporters to showcase the BIGGER VISION behind “Who is Fitness STAR International?” Where are they going? What are they doing? And answer how YOU could get involved.

For this WWW.FitnessSTARMediaKit.com was developed.

Together now we can, with the tools required to properly showcase Fitness STAR International, launch YOU SPREAD THE WORD WE SPREAD THE WEALTH campaign.

To show our love and support we will be offering ALL a more than generous 20% commission for their support.

A single referral could potentially earn you anywhere from $200 to $5000 with the BIGGEST supporter additionally awarded AN ALL EXCLUSIVE TRIP TO THE ARNOLD'S in OHIO March 1-3!

FOR MORE DETAILS: email me at Michael@FitnessSTAR.com

Today we LAUNCH, so get started NOW!!!
