Triumphs and Tragedies-What it takes to become a Successful Entrepreneur-by Edward Bounds

My name is Edward Bounds and I have been blessed with many successes and failures throughout my career as an entrepreneur. I know what you are thinking, did he say “blessed with failures"?

As a man of faith, I am of the belief that failures are a learning experience and can be seen as a blessing at times. I believe that everything happens for a reason, and if we have faith, and an open mind, you can learn from those failures. Many times God is helping us, by "slamming the door shut" on that path you were taking, so that you will have to go another direction.

If you ask successful entrepreneurs around the world, I am confident they will tell you they have failed on many occasions. In fact, many have suffered bankruptcies in their financial, personal and spiritual lives, some more than once, at some point during their careers. You see, "what does not kill us will only make us stronger". Unfortunately, this is where so many people give up on their dreams of owning their own business, and run back to where they think it is safe working for someone else.

The road less taken (business ownership) can be scary and definitely will be challenging. However, if you stay the course, find a good mentor for sound advice and training, it is well worth the effort. One thing to remember is in your entrepreneurial journey, it is a marathon not a sprint, and success does not come quick, nor easy. If it were easy, everyone would be successful business owners, and there would be NO employees in this world.

Successful entrepreneurs usually have an adventurous spirit. I have always enjoyed the independence of working for myself and the thrill of a new challenge. If you possess that adventurous spirit, find the right mentor for guidance, you are well on your way. My mentor was my father, and he was the best. If you find the right mentor, the right opportunity, and you are coachable, you can be a successful entrepreneur. The final and most important things is to have the courage to take action, and “believe in yourself” that you will succeed. Mindset is EVERYTHING, if you believe you will fail, you will. If can vision yourself as a successful business owner, that is a great advantage. This takes time and effort to develop this vision within.

My passion, drive and integrity came from watching my father, Clyde Bounds. You see, he was also a God fearing, hard working man that loved helping other people as well. He always had a full-time job, and was moonlighting to develop businesses on the side. He died in 2006, as a successful cattle rancher and businessman, I miss you Dad! Thanks for the memories......

My determination to succeed and passion for helping people began at a very early age growing up in the Texas summer sun. In fact, I began working to earn money when I was 10 years old. I started helping my neighbor take out her garbage, and keep her yard clean each week. A few years later, I started my first business at 13, by securing agreements to maintain several yards, then came a contract with the entire subdivision. Then a banker friend of my Dad's, who lived in the subdivision and admired my workd asked me to come see him. Now I had a signed a contract to keep the bank grounds clean, but the bank was 20 miles from my home and I did not yet have a drivers license. So, I hired several employees, one of whom had a drivers license to get me to the job site. Fast forward 40+ years, and through faith, hard work, and determination I have built 5 successful businesses.

While always evaluating new business opportunities, I use my talents and experiences, to help others duplicate my successes. With the turn of the new millennium, came a new opportunity, "The Internet". So, I set out to learn how to utilize the power of the Internet, to become an online entrepreneur. I applied the same level of effort and enthusiasm that I had in all of my previous business ventures, and became a very successful online businessman.

In 2006, I took my business experience and passion for helping other people, and started a company called The Superior Home Business Consultants. Since then, I have been mentoring and coaching people how to duplicate my successes, as home based entrepreneurs. If you have what it takes, call me anytime. I am always willing to help those who possess the power to succeed.

2) Integrity
3) Desire to help others, more than yourself
4) Determination to be the best

someone who enjoys helping others, give me a call anytime!

My Formula For Success and Wealth Creation

Success Tip 1: Use a System that is Simple and Effective

Simplicity is the most important element to any system. A system must be so simple that anyone, regardless of their experience or know-how, can plug in and get results. The most common mistake many businesses and opportunities make, is their systems are complex....people take too much time learning instead of making money. We've kept our system simple, easy to duplicate and highly effective. Here's how it works:

1. Place an ad: Thousands of people are searching everyday for home-based businesses, internet opportunities and ways to make more money. I will show you how to easily attract the right people using our powerful, proven-to-produce marketing system. With this system, you can have a website just like this one in less than 5 minutes...and people contacting you about the opportunity within 24 hours.

As Seen On:

2. Share the Information: There's no selling, telling or explaining involved. People respond to your opportunity ads and then you invite the serious people to a live business presentation call hosted by one of the Top Earners in the business. On this call, the host will explain everything to your guest for you, so your guest can make an informed, educated decision to become your customer.

3. You Collect the Check: The person calls you back after the business presentation call ready to make a decision and buy the products. You three-way them to any one of the experienced mentors available to you to get any questions the person might have and then...you collect the check and pocket a profit of $1,000 - $8,000 or more.

There is no personal selling, telling or explaining. The system does it all for you.

Success Tip 2: Develop Yourself and Your Skills;
Learn from Leaders.

Personal Development Coaching: The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. To make a change you have to begin with you; how you think, how you operate on a daily basis. Many people are great at doing, they just need some help "being". Our associates are taught how to use the principles found in The Secret and the Law of Attraction every day to their business. We share with them the exact roadmap to achieve success in all areas of life and support them in doing so with training, coaching and team support.

Live Interactive Marketing Training: The company provides live, interactive tele-seminars everyday to support you in your business. When you need an answer it is just a phone call or a click away. A full, multi-media Online Business Center contains all the tools and education you require to be successful.

Learning to Communicate: So many people feel they just "aren't good at sales.". That's not true. Everyone sells everyday...you sell people on why they should hire you, why they should date you, why they should like you... So, everyone has the potential. It's simply learning HOW to communicate effectively to become great at sales. Sales is the highest paid profession on the planet...it's also one of the easiest when you know how to connect with people in a way that has them want to buy from you. Just by increasing your confidence level and ability to communicate you can substantially increase your income in any industry.

Success Tip 3: Use a Proven Marketing System

Marketing That Works: The #2 reason people would fail in any business is they don't know how to market. That's why we provide instant access to proven-to-produce marketing tools including websites, print advertising, scripts, and more. We also teach you how to market...knowing how to bring customers to you is the critical in any business. You'll gain access to the same tools and marketing systems.

Success Tip 4: Only Market High Demand, Proprietary Products

A $100 Billion a year industry: To be successful in business, you have to be competitive and have a Unique Selling Proposition (USP). What that means, is you have to offer something everyone wants and no one else has. What we sell is SOLUTION. Taking advantage of the $100 Billion/a year industry of Personal Development and Financial Literacy Education, we provide products to people that answer the question, "How do I improve my life?". Since 1990 we have experienced tremendous growth and increase...far beyond what most industries ever experience! You've seen it on Oprah, Larry King, The Ellen Show, Dr. Phil and more...personal development is THE buzz word. As the economy bounces around, corporations increase lay-offs and paycuts and jobs are outsourced to other countries, our industry explodes. Why? Because people want to make a change and they are looking for the fastest, most effective way to do it. We give them the SOLUTION, creating high demand and industry exclusivity.

Success Tip 5: Profit from Leverage

Work Less, Make More: There is a distinct difference between employees and entrepreneurs:

Employees: Trade time for money. To make more, you have to work more.

Entrepreneurs: Use leverage to make more and work less. Leverage means you are profiting from the efforts of others. So, whether you are sleeping, working or playing, you are making money. The more leverage you have, the less you have to work and the more you can make.

Without leverage, you will never get rich nor will you ever be financially independent. Leverage is the only way...just ask your employer. Lots of people get angry because they work really hard while their employer is living a jet set lifestyle in a big house, with nice cars always on vacation. Well...that's the choice the employer made. The person who chooses to take advantage of leverage gets lifestyle, while the person who doesn't gets to work hard.

There are different types of leverage. The most freeing type of leverage is provided by network marketing (not to be confused with MLM). Its' entrepreneurs benefiting from other entrepreneurs. So, rather than having dependent employees, you have self-motivated entrepreneurs who are working to build their own business while you financially benefit. It's brilliant!

Powerful Compensation Plan: You want to get paid, paid first and paid a lot. This compensation model has profits of $1000.00 to $10,000.00 paid direct to me. There's no sharing of profits, but still an incredible amount of leverage.

This is a direct sales compensation model: network marketing for grownups!
Unlike MLM which has little tiny profits and requires you to have thousands of people to make a few hundred bucks a month, with just one sale you have over a $40,000 potential. With our 75% profit margins, there is ADULT MONEY HERE!

Success Tip 6: Don't Miss the Boat

When the timing is right... Millionaires are made by jumping on board emerging trends and booming markets. They take full advantage of the "next big boom". Just think of all the people who made millions in the dot.com boom; the millions made in the up real estate markets...and all the people who missed the boat simply because they were waiting to see other people's results before they'd believe in themselves enough to make a move. To become independently wealthy, you have to become a risk taker. Once the boat leaves the shore, it's gone! There's always markets and opportunities that are ground-floor, jump on board and ride the wave of momentum and growth. Hesitation is for the weak and broke...don't let procrastination stop you from making your fortune.

Success Tip 7: Follow Your Heart and Trust Yourself

If it's to be...: It's up to YOU. Only you are able to determine your success and what is right for you. The system works, the products are awesome, the compensation plan is ridiculously lucrative. But, your results will be up to you. Are you coachable? Are you motivated? Do you really believe you deserve to multiple 5, 6 7 figures? These are questions only you can answer. Ultimately, you owe it to yourself to get informed so you can make an educated decision about your future.

The home based business arena has never been more attractive. People are tired of worrying about loosing their jobs. The stress of the sagging job market has made it more appealing than ever to be your own boss. However, with the credit line restrictions and high start up costs of most traditional businesses, most people just can't afford to start a business.

I was a casualty of layoffs in 2006. After increasing revenue across the board as a college administrator in Texas, I was told that my position was being eliminated. I had just purchased a new home and WHAM, no job, no extra cash and stunned beyond belief. I decided right then that I would do something different with my life an not allow others to dictate my family's financial future. I went online in search of the right "home based business", where a person can take a small investment and turn it into a very significant monthly income.

After completing my due diligence on many so-called "home business opportunities" I became very dismayed at the amount of people who were trying to take advantage of people. I decided to provide some real information for people who are serious about making a change for the better in their lives and becoming an entrepreneur.

There are some basic questions you need to ask when looking for a business opportunity:
1) How long has this company been in business (with the same company name)?
Longevity and Successful track record is imperative in finding the right business.

2) What is the product that you would be marketing?
You want to make sure there is a real product of value, in high demand and is not something they can buy anywhere else cheaper.

3) Is there ongoing FREE support and training? (Not just until they have your money)
