February 2011

This month’s issue is about commitment. This is an essential topic for all who desire a successful business NOT another non-profit hobby. Pay close attention to the advice given by the experts and then make the commitment.

I want you to play close attention to one of my favorite contributors, friend and mentor, Jack Zufelt. I am also very excited to announce a joint venture between The Network Marketing Magazine.com and Jack as our spokesperson to the entire industry. As a contributor to the magazine Jack has shared his wisdom to our members through his 20 plus articles over the years. We are now going to commit to offering you even a more effective tool with TheNetworkMarketingMagazine.com that will help you and your team through our teaming with Jack Zufelt and his teachings revolving around The DNA of Commitment.

Aim high!
