End of October 2016


The first thing I want to address in this update is a

WARNING!

Our club is gaining MANY valuable, empathetic, sympathetic, selfless and very GIVING members. I thank God everyday! Making your dreams happen is making MY dream happen, I thank each and everyone one of you from the bottom of my soul and heart.
Unfortunately we will also run into the exact opposite as well and I encourage you to be very thoughtful BEFORE giving. Get to know someone for at least a month before you join any business with them, send them any cash or invest your heart wholly into any causes. You need to do your research on the people you run into that are 'in need' and even businesses you haven't heard much about. We will do our very best to keep our groups and areas scam free but when dealing with numbers in the thousands, some will slip past our screenings.

We have seen at least 2 questionable businesses this year that have disappeared and or cost many much needed dollars and time. These people were immediately removed from our club but are awful reminders that no place is 100% safe from the 'dark side'. I love you like long time friends, even though we've only know each other a short time. I NEVER want to see any of you hurt in any way and get fiercely upset when I hear that you are or have been. If I / we could keep you cloaked from all fraudulent activity forever, we would lol. Since we can not we are forced to remind you that we are providing a 'safer than usual' environment but ultimately it is you who must guard yourself in those private moments of messaging. Interacting and asking around in the club if you are feeling 'funny' about something or someone, is encouraged! Tammy Tomas and Shauna Schollaert are your 'founders' and can always be approached with questions or concerns.

UPDATES


October has been a busy and successful month for us from where I sit!

We've had a few set backs but have made more forward progress than backward!

 

The Go Fund Me Campaign


We have lost our go fund me account / campaign. They feel we are to 'salesy' to use a go fund me account to raise funds. Won't they feel silly once we are a legal non profit club! I try not to spend to much time on what I cannot control or that may suck the wind out of our sails, so we have left Go Fund Me and the (approx.) $500 in fees they collected, behind and are pressing forward using Squareup. This has proven to be quite the blessing in disguise as we can lay out the site in a easy to understand manner and hold all our donation and reward options in one place as well as payment plans! We love it back here so far! Please let us know what your experience on the new site is like so we can continue to improve it and keep it simple for all.

The Affiliate Program

For those of you new to the club, you may not even be aware but you can make cash money hunny! When you tell your friends about the club (and we are confident you will HAVE to talk about it because we are awesome lol) and they decide they are going to be just as smart as you and jump on board, make a donation and upgrade to a club monthly, yearly or life time member, YOU GET 10% of the donation as a thank you gift!

We have been trying to get this program up and running smoothly for some months now and have run into issue after issue but are finally on the right track!
We are now issuing the thank you gifts with in 48 hours of the referrals upgrade! It will be Tammy Tomas or Shauna Schollaert that has to make the transfer to you so it will only take as long as their schedules require, no more than 48 hours in most usual cases.

What about my past payments?
We are working on getting all the referrals logged so we can start issuing funds due. We no longer have the $25 minimum and will get everyone what they have earned HOWEVER, we are having a lot of trouble due to the Go Fund Me account being closed and it holding many of the upgrades names that we would then link with the payment information to find who referred them. (see what a pain the old way was lol) We will do all that we can do including contacting you to be sure we have everyone recorded and squared away with any balances due them.


Our new shopping events.

The club wants to be the only source of business building help, tools, items and anything at all you need for growing your business. It will be some time before we have everything covered but we are taking a step forward with our new online events!
We are going the extra 10 miles and making these different from your typical online events. We are setting them up in a easy to shop environment and investing a health portion into advertisements for each one. We are switching target markets at different points of the event/s and are reaching many people this way. We no longer send 'invites' to these events as we want everyone to see how well the advertising is doing, not gamble with how many 'invited' people might actually look at it. We suspect putting the event in front of those who have shown to be interested in shopping online, home businesses and other online shopping activity, will be more successful than invitations and crossed fingers.
Like many areas of the club this is new and experimental. We can not give you solid statistics or success rates because we simply do not know yet. If you use the exposure and event correctly, you will reach MANY, possibly hundreds,outside of your current networks.


It's your club too and we need your help!


With hundreds of members and 20 hundred things to do everyday, we need YOU, the members of the club to keep the Facebook groups going when your 2 main "leaders" are off doing this sort of work behind the scenes and cannot be in the groups keeping interest and conversation up. All you have to do to accomplish this is post questions, tips or other interesting content when you see the groups are slow or quiet. We have many new members who will 'watch and wait' before jumping in. We want them to see a productive and active atmosphere even when Tammy and Shauna are not present.
WE THANK YOU FOR ANY HELP YOU CAN LEND! 


CONGRATS

TO OUR LIFER, AFFILIATE TEAM LEADER, AND SOON TO BE DIRECTOR MONIQUE LLOYD AND OUR VENDOR JAMIE MAKIN !
Mo won over $100 in Pampered Chef products and Jamie was the lucky consultant she shopped with!


Experiments we are no longer doing at this time due to low success rates

Pop up sales
Fundraiser contact gathering for personal fundraisers

Coming up in November

We will be continuing to focus on the new events as well as getting the paid members webpage finished up. We are hoping to be doing some work on the $5 events (free to members) to get some exposure growing there and pushing our games group! Our member and volunteer admin Isabel is probably pretty lonely over there! We don't talk about it enough! Any help spreading the word about our games group would be GREAT!

SPECIAL THANKS

These people went out of their way for the club this month. Maybe they donated and item for give a ways or auctions. Maybe they made a sizeable cash donation. They may have shared our items more than anyone else or they may be working their bottoms off day and night on some part of the club or another but we want them to have special notice because they've given YOU extra ...
