Polaris Media Group Kicks off 2010 in a Big Way with Three Foundation Live Events on 3 Continents

One of the newest products introduced to the Polaris Media Group is the one day Foundation Live Event and 2010 will long be remembered for three round the world events held on three different continents in January.

These inaugural events were held in conjunction with the traditional New Years Kick off Parties that Polaris Media Group Distributors have come to look forward to every year.

The new year kick off parties and Foundation Live events were held in San Francisco January 9th and 10th then on to the Gold Coast of Australia the 16th and 17th, wrapping up the world tour in Europe in the great city of Prague on the 30th & 31st.

Distributors from all over the world got together sharing successes from 2009 and high expectations for the coming year with the introduction of new products like Documentaries, Personal Development and Entrepreneurial Skills Education.

The first module of the expanded Beyond Freedom Home Study Course "Departure" began shipping just after the 1st of the year and many distributors had already begun a new study of the principles which are fundamental to success in all walks of life including entrepreneurship.

The second documentary film "Unbeaten" was released at the Foundation Live event in San Francisco and is now available for sale to the public for $24.95.

The Foundation Live guest speakers Scott Burrow and Oz Sanchez who is featured in the film "Unbeaten" provided inspiration and thoughtful reflection about life's challenges and hardships and more importantly insight on how to overcome even when all the odds are stacked against you.

In addition to the information, study, learning and thoughtful engagement those who attended these events were able to network with each other providing an environment where thousands of successful entrepreneurs who are achieving success in their home based business networked, exchanged ideas and contributed to the success stories of the new distributors who were attending their first event.

Polaris Media Group provides their distributors with a community of like minded people who are getting real results today where $5,000 to $30,000 weekly incomes are common using the Polaris Media Business Model and principles taught in the Beyond Freedom Evolution home study course. If the Harvard study that found 25% of a person's annual net income is directly related to the kind of people they have in their inner circles then it isn't surprising Polaris Media Group distributors hold industry records for monthly personal net income.

I know those who attended these events have headed back home with more knowledge and tools to expand their businesses and take the kind of actions required to make lasting positive changes in their personal and professional lives. The unique combination of personal development home study curriculum, entrepreneurial skills education from a proven business model, a community of successful entrepreneurs and ongoing mentoring, coaching and training of new distributors with top earners in the industry is helping attendees move closer to achieving their goals and the life they want.

One of the resounding messages given at the Foundation Live event is that each and every person has within them the power to re-create their lives and make the changes necessary to live a life of true freedom and abundance regardless of the barriers they may be facing right now. This is a brand new year and a brand new decade, don't hold back. Just go for it!

Polaris Media Group Is so Much More Than a Business Opportunity

With the economy in the tank and people getting laid off I've been getting a lot of requests for information about Polaris Media Group.

Interestingly enough more than half the people who ask me about my business already have a network marketing or mlm business of some kind that they're involved in but they are still looking for something.

It's with this in mind that I'm writing this post. I know the internet is chock full of people posing as Gurus and business opportunities to make thousands of dollars with little to no effort and if you have a facebook, myspace, twitter or other social media account you get bombarded with this stuff.

First of all, I'm different and so is Polaris Media Group. I am never going to claim to be a Guru or enlightened sage of internet wisdom. How much money I make in my business, is my business. How much money you make in your business will be entirely up to you and that is true no matter what business opportunity you run with.

Some people like to run fast, some run slow. Some people like profits of pennies per sale and are happy building teams of thousands to make some extra money. Building a team of tens of thousands of associates to earn a few thousand dollars a month does not interest me. That sounds way too much like a job and I started my Polaris Media Group Business to leave the rat race behind forever.

Personally I like to run fast, especially when it comes to business. If not for the mentors who taught me everything I know today, I don't know where I'd be. I took what they taught me, applied it, and it freakin worked! The trick is to meet and work with the right people with the right system. It took a money investment, hard work, determination, persistence and some hair pulling, but damn it was worth it! If anyone wants to know the nuts and bolts of how I'm doing this then contact me.

I warn you though and I'm not kidding here. I only want to work with people on my team who are serious and willing to work hard at achieving their goals. I work with people who are like me in this respect. I do not tolerate whiners or those who want to make fast money with little or no effort on their part. If you are like that please look elsewhere. I am looking for people that understand starting a business takes money (theirs), time and what could be called a Rock Star attitude. So let's get this show on the road.

Polaris Media Group retails and wholesales products to a wide range of people. Some are retail customers only, some buy at wholesale and some take advantage of the business model to create a business they can call their own with residual income and excellent up front profits.

So here's how it works. Are you currently looking for a business opportunity? If you are, the ball will be in your court to get back to me if you want more information. As I mentioned before I'm confident you already get barraged with the latest and greatest opps in the world and out of respect for your time you probably don't want me bugging you too. Plus out of respect for my time, I have other fish to fry as well, so here is a brief description of what I do.

Polaris Media Group and I specialize in personal development, free enterprise and positive media. I own what I like to call a lifestyle company building a customer base one person at a time with products that give much more value than the price tag requires for their purchase.

Our product line begins with $29.95 DVDs that introduce customers to the world of Personal Development and include interactive web based modules that actually engage the customer and challenge them to begin to make positive changes in their life by implementing principled actions in their daily life while interacting with other people who are at a similar point in the self actualization process. We're a community of people on a similar journey sharing our experiences and helping each other.

We also produce documentaries like this:

Trailer for the documentary "Unbeaten" hosted by Dan Aykroyd and featuring "A Better Life" by Clint Black. http://bit.ly/505xpc

We offer home study courses that range from 90 day study to 270 consecutive days. The best comparison of this product would be to say the above mentioned DVDs are High School or Jr. College courses and the Beyond Freedom Evolution home study course is two semesters of college where the subject studied is Personal Development and you interact live with class mates, your professor and people who have already completed the program.

Beyond Freedom Evolution is actually broken into three 90 day modules which are sold separately or all together, they are Departure, Decision and Action.

Here is a two minute trailer on Beyond Freedom Evolution:

Departure puts you with other entrepreneurs who have successfully "departed from the herd" http://bit.ly/4pm4yZ

Our entrepreneurial education curriculum combines the hands on education of starting a home based business following a proven system while participating in the "Beyond Freedom Evolution" curriculum. We provide the Business Model Blueprint, coaching and training (ie., marketing, mind set, prospecting) and you will work one on one with people who are getting results right now in their business using exactly the same tools you are using. You capitalize your own business; provide the willingness to learn and elbow grease to get the job done.

Additionally we have three conferences. They are the Foundation Live Event, Sovereignty Live and Influence Live Events. These conferences tie into entrepreneurial education by providing an environment where successful people associate with each other in exotic locations around the world several times a year. It is a proven fact that the people you associate with and identify with will have as much or more influence over your income as your education does so we put people together with people who are already successful and earning a substantial income.

Our product line is growing and new products are introduced regularly so your customers who have elected to purchase a DVD will continue to find new products of interest they can purchase from you be it another DVD, drive time CDs, books, home study courses or conference tickets. Some of your retail customers will even want to partner with you in the entrepreneurial education portion of the curriculum.

For these people, Polaris Media Group provides all the training and resource materials for you. You do not train your own business partners, instead they will receive their training from successful, experienced top producers in the company and most often they will interact one on one with their coaches and trainers.

I invite you to check out the other links and blog posts which should give you a better feel for who I am and my adventure with Polaris Media Group.

What Are the Personal Development Products Really Like? Departure coming January 1st 2010

Becoming an entrepreneur is a bold move to make. Moving forward with that decision takes action.




The first natural occurence as a result of this decision is a Departure from the expected, from the agreed upon, from the life you were leading.

Beyond Freedom Evolution's first 90 day home study curriculum puts you in the environment of other entrepreneurs who have successfully "departed from the herd."

It will give you a new outlook to make the transition much easier with insights that have been created from real experience not just philosophy.

When this product is used as directed, Departure will give you the personal certainity, courgae, viewpoint, attitued and overall perspective to see that you really are free to move in whatever direction you want to go and ultimately are capable of acheiving your most important goals!

Polaris Media Group presents "Kids With Cameras"

One of the things I really enjoy about Polaris Media Group is the fact they are always in new product development with much of the emphasis being placed on creating positive media to give consumers an alternative to the diet of "mass media" drama and negativity.

This combination of positive media, entrepreneurial skills training and personal development products makes an unbeatable package for individuals who are serious about making positive changes in their life.

The following is a trailer for a documentary (one of many) that will soon be released.





"This documentary follows the progress, challenges and triumphs of a group of children with autism and Asperger's syndrome participatin in a film camp hosted by non-profit Actor's for Autism and taught by award winning educator Brad Koepenick. This feature provides a window into revealing moments of the kd's private lives combined with interviews wth their families as they learn to express themselves throughcrating films, poems, painting and music."

This documentary is a good example of the kind of caring people who work in the background, everyday giving 100% of themselves to help other people.

I know you'll enjoy meeting the amazing people of Polaris Media Group, our community of entrepreneurs are real people just like you and me, getting real results in thier lives, using the principles taught in our products and seminars.

If your tired of the hype and unbelieveable claims that seem to dominate the home based business, direct sales, work from home, network markting and MLM industries then you may want to look at the Polaris Media Group a little closer, when you're ready I'd love to introduce you to some of my friends. I'v found this company has real integrity and that's a breath of fresh air.

Turnkey Viral Internet Marketing System

Some Straight Talk about what it really takes to make money online.

In an earlier blog post I mentioned I had a fairly extensive history of working home based businesses.

Many of those were before the internet came into its present relavance to success in marketing however, I'm not unfamiliar with what other companies in the network marketing, direct sales and multi level marketing industries are doing these days.

We all know that to be successful in any business endeavor you must be a successful marketer or have the resources to hire someone who is.

In addition to my past experience with the above mentioned industries I worked for over a dozen years as a real estate broker, business broker and consultant. During that time I helped many new companies get their feet on the ground with systems that helped them put together successful business plans. I have long realized that where people fail, systems succeed, every time. Just ask your accountant how important the book keeping system is (especially if you have a payroll to meet).

So when I found the Polaris Media Group (formerly Liberty League International) and I started to evaluate whether I would get involved with it, the first thing I looked at was their marketing system. I wanted to know if it had a proven track record, what kind of profits it produced and if it was easily duplicated.

So, what if I told you Polaris Media Group markets for their distributors, would you believe me?

Have you ever heard of a Company in this industry that actually markets on behalf of their distributors?

I hadn't either... until now.

Polaris Media Group actually markets for their distributors as a part of their business opportunity.

Needless to say, this is a huge advantage.

Can you imagine waking up in the morning and finding dozens of emails in your inbox that all have the same subject line... You have received and order!

Just for a moment try to think about what it would feel like to get dozens of orders that came in as a result of work you had done weeks or even months ago and because the Polaris Media Group's marketing system never sleeps it continued to market to your book of business or customer list, generating sales for you while you were sleeping.

You see, that's only a part of the system Polaris Media Group distributors enjoy and it isn't because of anything they did beyond making the choice to start a Polaris Media Group Home Based Business. That decision put them in business with a Company that markets on their behalf so all they need to do is focus on building their customer base.

So imagine a new customer of yours, say a lady named Mary decides to buy the Beyond Freedom Evolution home study course you'll earn the 40% of retail plus bonuses and Mary will join your list of satisfied customers. Somewhere down the line, she'll automatically get an offer from the Company to purchase the next level product that matches her purchasing preferences and if she hasn't already decided to take advantage of the business opportunity Mary will get information about making money with a home based business of her own.

When Mary makes another purchase, YOU get paid...it's that simple.

Polaris Media Group has a lot of products and many more in development so there is always something for everyone no matter who you are or what level of interest you have. With Polaris Media Group marketing on your behalf it's almost an unfair advantage.

People who have never earned a dime in a home business are achieving great results here.

The number one asset in your new business is your customer list but so many new entrepreneurs are too busy getting going to pay attention to this list and that's one reason the Company helps you out with that.

Therefore your number one business tool is the system you use to communicate with your customers.

Normally you'd have to spend lots of time and money to find the right software for managing your customer list. Often people who are on a tight budget settle for less than they really need which means the customer list just sits there long after the sale was made and no ongoing contact is possible without spending a lot more time to do so.

There's a bunch of auto responders out there and shopping carts for online sales, merchant accounts and shipping details...it can be really confusing even for someone whose been there and done that. That's another reason why Polaris Media Group provides a system for their distributors and you won't believe how advanced it is.

Picture this...

Over the weekend you get a dozen or so leads while you're at church or enjoying family time. The Polaris marketing system sends you an email notifying you that someone has requested information and at the same time the system sends an email to the new prospective customer on your behalf. The email is personalized, automated, and professional and it provides them with some initial information about the Company.

Now...check this out; let's say that in addition to requesting information on the Polaris business they have also purchased the 'Know For Yourself' DVD. The system automatically processes that order with no involvement from you and it immediately credits you account with the 40% commission.

Then on Tuesday this lead will get an email inviting them to attend one of our 50+ live information tele-seminars. Again, without you having to do anything.

Here comes the hard part...you give this lead a call, have a normal conversation with them about their interest in the product and business opportunity and simply assist them in getting what they are looking for.

Now a few days after the DVD arrives this lead will get another email inviting them to visit the special 'customer only' website where they can interact with the Company about the information they discovered on the DVD.

Let me re-cap briefly your involvement up to this point for the sake of clarity:

When you got your business started you took the time to learn by studying and implementing the online business start up kit which includes setting up a home office, marketing, scripts, schedules...

The whole nine yards so to speak.

You probably placed several ads some on the internet maybe a few in the local newspapers, which is how this lead found you...

you called the lead and had a normal conversation (NOT a sales call) gave them some helpful direction to find out more information.

That's it.

Meanwhile the Company has collected payment for the DVD order, sent out emails, followed up and promoted additional information to your new customer.

As a result of completing the purchase of the DVD this lead will be automatically moved to a NEW mailing list for you so they won't continue to get email about a product they have already purchased. This new list will later offer the lead exciting information about another product that matches their interests.

I think you're starting to get the idea about how you can leverage your own time to create massive results without having to re-invent the wheel.

When you talk with a lead (customer) who is interested in the business opportunity, you simply schedule the to a LIVE information tele-seminar that does all the telling, selling and explaining for you and when they get done with that call you'll have someone with Polaris available to answer all their questions so you don't have to know all the answers yourself.

When the lead (customer) decides to move forward with a business of their own the Polaris Media Group automated system will automatically send out an email with all the information they will need to get started immediately.

ALL this is completely automated!

In addition, as you learn to work with the tools Polaris provides, you'll be able to customize for your growing team, target niche markets like stay at home moms, do blasts to your list, run special promotions and much, much more.

The fact is that there is no other network marketing, direct sales company or mlm on the planet that offers what we just discussed and I haven't even gotten into the one on one personal conversations with top earners in Polaris Media Group who will take the time to coach, teach and mentor your success. You'll even have regular opportunities to ask the founder and CEO of the company any questions live on the phone, one on one!

Now that's what I call Company support!

I've attempted to keep this post from getting too technical and keep it simple because the system really is a simple proven system (9+ year track record). For those of you who are reading this and are interested in the 'nuts and bolts' well...let me say... this IS the kind of technology and marketing expertise you can expect from Polaris Media Group and what's more...

people who have no idea what I'm really talking about will find the tutorials, live training calls and assistance of their enroller to be all that's necessary to answer all the how to questions they can think to ask.

All a person really needs to succeed with a proven viral internet marketing system like this one is the desire to succeed, the willingness to put excuses aside, roll up the shirt sleeves and get after it.

What Are The Personal Development Proucts REALLY Like Part III: Sovereignty Live Conference

In my last post I outlined the Beyond Freedom Evolution home study course. If you were familiar with Liberty League International (original company that designed the course) you may also know they had two conferences, a Liberty Conference and a Summit Conference. The Polaris Media Group has taken the best of what Liberty League's products offered and expanded them as well as adding several new products. Beyond Freedom is becoming Beyond Freedom Evolution, the Liberty Conference is becoming the Sovereignty Live Conference and the Summit Conference is becoming the Influence Live Conference.

Essentially what this means to me and the customer is that the CEO and Founder of Polaris Media Group, Shane Krider, the Customer Service Staff and the Executive Marketing Committee have a ten year track record in the Personal Development, Entrepreneurial Skills Training, Direct Sales and Network Marketing arena. In other words, this isn't our first rodeo.

The Sovereignty Live Conference is a three day event held in an exotic locale that focuses on how to apply the principles taught and discussed in the Beyond Freedom home study course.

The Influence Live Conference is a five day event held in an even more exclusive location and it teaches everything from financial strategies to help you get your money working for you to really specific entrepreneurial education and it brilliantly ties in the principles taught in personal development.

All of the guest speakers are living and doing the same exact types of things we teach in our curriculum so the integration of information is seamless and often people will come home from a live event and begin experiencing massive growth in their personal and business life because they are able to activelyab apply the things they learned at the conference to their own lives and business. Plus when we get home from an event we are still plugged into this community and learning process so the conference never really nds.

I will take just a moment to digress here. I say digress because I want to mention that I have personally paid several thousand dollars to attend conferences that other programs offered. One such conference was hosted by Anthony Robbins and he was a great motivational speaker but...

Most of what I learned in those two days had no "integration" directly into my daily home and business life. Yes there were lots of principles covered and several how to sessions but the difference between what he offered and what I've experienced at a live Polaris Media Group event were night and day. My experience with other live events almost kept me from attending my first Polaris live event because I was comparing what I knew from my past to what I thought I would see in my future and that was almost a very expensive mistake.

Fortunately I didn't make that mistake or I wouldn't be writing this blog and I wouldn't have made thousands of dollars with the business opportunity because of my decision to be a Polaris Media Group Director.

Now back to the discussion about the products. I'll sum it up in two words... First Class

The Sovereignty Live Conference isn't your basic MLM conference in an aging Holiday Inn somewhere. It's not a deal where you show up at the Marriott in Orlando with a couple hundred people from your MLM company with stuffy company training or business building information.

We're not a bunch of stuffy business people, in fact you'll find a wide diversity of people from housewives and CEOs, to car salesmen, insurance brokers, former real estate agents (like me), former police officers and investment bankers attending our events and taking advantage of the products and business opportunity to get out of the rat race for good.

You could say that once you've made the decision to be a part of the Polaris Media Group, make financial and personal life changes that set your family free from the daily grind you let your hair down a bit and have some fun.

This isn't the kind of event where the CEO and Top Producers of the Company are safely staged behind velvet ropes and inaccessible. Not at all, in fact you'll shake hands with and enjoy conversation with most of the Executive Marketing Committee, Founder of the Company and top income earners and have time after the sessions to pick their brains pool side or just relax and enjoy a cigar while masterminding with millionaires.

The Polaris Media Group live events are first class events held in exotic locations and features world-class speakers. Past speakers have included Michael Losier the bestselling author of "the Law of Attraction," Randy Gage, Patrick Combs, Andy Andrews best selling author of "the Travelers Gift" a modern day Will Rogers who has done four command performances for four U.S. Presidents and consultant for companies like Microsoft, Bob Proctor, Doug Weed personal advisor to several Presidents of the U.S., and many more.

A week ago October 12th thru the 14th Polaris Media Group held it first ever Sovereignty Live Conference at the beautiful El Conquistador resort in sunny Puerto Rico.

Stormy Island

I'd love to tell you I'm writing this from my balcony overlooking the Atlantic at the El Conquistador Resort in Puerto Rico...but I'm not. I'm back home in my home office putting together notes from one of the most dynamic conferences the world of Personal Development has ever seen.

View from the balcony

The first full day was jam packed including a quick bite for breakfast and then off to Palamino Island on a tender. This place is really cool and has tons of activities like jet-skiing, snorkeling, and just relaxing on the beach.

Looking the other way on the balcony

The official start of the conference is a kick off reception with the red carpet rolled out in a dramatic way; lots of food, local entertainment and recognition for some of the company's leaders. The first full day includes a general session which runs from 10:00 a.m. to 2:30 ish with a break for lunch.

Neal Petersen

If you've never had an opportunity to see Neal Petersen live you're missing out on an extremely dynamic speaker. This guy grew up in apartheid South Africa where opportunities for colored folks were few. He built his own sail boat and basically sailed around the world. He started out knowing very little about navigation but was determined to succeed so he took with him a sextant and a how to book on how to use a sextant. He learned by doing and personifies the kind of entrepreneurial spirit and skill we teach with Polaris Media Groups Beyond Freedom Evolution and business model.

John Lavenia sharing and idea with an associate

This conferences line up also included Yossi Ghinsberg whose story of survival in the Amazon rain forest is worth hearing many times if for no other reason than to remind myself how easy my life really is.

Yassi Ghinsberg

Also Steve Donahue shared his accounts of crossing the Sahara desert at the age of 20 and the realization that maps are great if the landscape isn't always changing like the shifting sands of the desert. His recommendation is you get yourself a good compass in life and follow it no matter what map you're looking at.

Steve Donahue

This Sovereignty Live Conference was the best organized most professional and powerful live event anyone could ever attend. Words of course can't do it justice and pale in comparison to being there. The cost of the Sovereignty Live event is $7995 for two people not including travel, most meals and lodging.

When I compare what I get out of a Polaris live event to my experience with a Robert Kiyosaki (who by the way is brilliant) live event for two days at the "Pepsi Center" in Denver Colorado where I paid a very similar amount of money (excluding the travel and resort destination etc.), well...let's just say Polaris Media Group is in a class all by its self and I'll be attending many more of their live events. Robert is good in person and his books "Rich Dad Poor Dad" and "The Cash Flow Quadrant" are MUST reads if you want to really understand money, finance and real estate investing, but isn't good enough for me to keep going back to see him in person.

I'll review the other products in future blog posts, this one got kind of long because the live event occurred about the same time I wrote it so I threw both of them in together. By the way...if you're curious about where the Influence Live Conference is being held in March of 2010 it will be in Maccau, China right across the bay from hong Kong! We'll talk more about this conference in my next post.
