Four Easy Steps To A Better Economy

The Economy and the four easy steps average Americans can take to help get it back on track.

Most Americans like myself are not in positions of such high authority that they can go out and instruct their peers to authorize another half a trillion dollars or some such to jump start the economy.

To do this you obviously have to been in one of the highest positions in the land.

But on the other hand there are a few things that people just like you and I can do collectively to go along ways to rectify the situation.

Yes indeed, the truth is if I could talk enough of you into actually doing the thing I am going to ask you to do, we can turn this horrific situation around that we have found our selves in.

Using what I am going suggest we could actually be able to add several trillion dollars to our local economies with out any government help what so ever in just a few months but it would take everyone pulling together to do this.

There are four steps that I recommend that we all need to take.

First: Make a personal budget and make sure your mortgage, utilities, car note, health issues and other absolute necessities are on the front burner to be paid every month.

Second: Set aside ten percent or more of your income for savings. The Japanese actually save twenty percent or more. They do this so they don’t have to depend on the government to save them. Learning to take care of yourself is a very satisfying and terrific feeling.

Third: The next thing we need to do is based on viral marketing and referrals. These are sales terms that you may or may not know are be knowledgeable about.

This is just to bring you up to speed.

Referrals are the one of the most important ways of doing business that there is. In fact referrals account for approximately sixty percent of all direct sales made in the United States.

For this reason referrals are the most important thing any salesperson, direct or retail sales company can possess.

So how are referrals going to help this situation?

Easy, all we have to do to make this work is look around the house at all of the processions you now own that work really well and provide you with the kind of service you expected to get when you bought the item or product.

Everyone has two or three items around that absolutely give kick but service and these are the items I am talking about.

You will be able to proudly proclaim that you own and use these products every day because they are fabulous and actually so what they are supposed to do.

These could be cars, appliances, food items, personal items or even the paint you just used to repaint your home.

Any absolutely excellent products that you have had some terrific results from that you would not hesitate to recommend to someone else you know.

After you finish making a list of all of the items then you can recommend these products to your friends and family if you feel that they to would have a use for any of the items on your list.

You should tell your friends or realitives about the store, company or salesperson you bought the items from.

And then the fourth step:

Tell your friends about what you have learned and ask your friends to go through the four steps with their friends so the chain keeps going.

If everyone you know recommends good quality products to their friends and gets them to do the same we are creating what is known as a viral market.

A viral market grows in a never ending cycle so that before long the whole country is caught up in this and more and more people are put to work making or selling the high quality products everyone is recommending to each other.

The beauty of this deal is everyone wins and the economy grows and the stock market grows so your 401K starts getting back where it used to be or better.

As a result of all of this, sales improve for everyone who is selling or manufacturing a high quality product in America.

Some other things you could do if you to have a Blog, is to put this story or your version of it out there for millions of people to see.

This project will work if enough people see and hear about it.

It will cost you absolutely nothing but a little bit of time and the benefits are great. Lets face it helps the people you are referring to your best buying experience to as well so that they to can also enjoy the benefit of having a good buying experience.

Let’s all get on board and help America WIN!!!
