Younique Business Review

I am James. I’m the one responsible for getting my wife Louise into Younqiue. She just wanted the makeup. I’m the sort of person who always looks for an affiliate link, a join us page, a business opportunity.

When I presented Louise with what I think would be the best route for her to get this makeup, get it cheaper and share it with others she was more open to the idea of it purely because I have been involved in Network Marketing for a while now and she has had many conversations with me about it.

When I went looking, I wanted to know who Younique were, Did they have a Viable Product Range and did they have Customers.

So reading around Younique I found out that it is a cosmetic company that was founded by Derek Maxfield and Melanie Huscroft (who are brother and sister) in 2012.

Louise actually went to the 2016 Younique 2nd Birthday Party and met Melanie and her Husband, and a few of the Team Members in Younique.

When Louise came back she was so excited to be part of this “Venture”. She shared with me their vision and mission.

The Younique Mission, as stated on their website, is to uplift woman by creating cosmetic products that empower them spiritually and physically making it possible for people to look and feel their best. Louise said that is one of the Best Mission Statements she had ever witnessed.

Louise said “When I was in London, that is where i Truely understood the mission. I could see it working first hand, I could see the lives it had changed for the better and I could really see how this can be a positive force in any woman’s life.”

MLM is a Scam

So many people confuse what Network Marketing is, they mis understand MLM and associate it directly to scams because there are so many scams out there. We all know someone who has screamed SCAM about something they did online.

MLM/Network Marketing is a valid Business Practice and one that you are really going to see a lot more of in the future. It’s cheaper for companies to adopt, it’s better for individuals to get paid their worth.

Let me share a scam that most people today are part of, tell me where you are on this Pyramid.

corporate pyramid scheme Younique Younique Business Review CorporatePyramidScheme

Can you imagine the Greeters at the bottom earning CEO Pay? Not in a Corporate Environment, now you can see why Network Marketing, MLM, Online is a way out of pay cheque to pay cheque for many people.

Please don’t think it’s easy, like any JOB, it is a learning experience. The ONLY thing that is easy about Network Marketing is that you can jump from company to company, and that is where most people fail. They don’t commit, they don’t give it a chance. If they are not stinking rich in a month, then it must be a scam.

Network Marketing is a lesson in Growth and Personal Achievements. What is good about this system is that we are NOT sales people. We as Network Marketers are there to showcase the product, share how it works, how it affects our lives, how it makes it better.

Not everyone wants to get into Network Marketing to promote it, lots just want to get their hands on the products and as a Distributor, Presenter, Affiliate you can usually get access to it cheaper.

So what was the route into Younique?

The Presenters Kit – That  is the way in. When you look at the front end of the business and your looking at buying the product, your wants start to rake up a fair bit of money, I noticed this with my wifes wants from Younique. When I showed her the presenters kit the value of makeup you get and the price that you pay was really a Gift. Over £150 Value of Makeup for £69 plus postage.

The first thing Louise said was, she didn’t want to sell it. I explained to her that she was under no obligation to share, showcase or promote the products. She could get the kit and that would be it.

Let me show you what was inside the kit.

The Presenter Kit Younique Younique Business Review PresenterKit

As you can see with the amount of products there, that £69 Presenter Kit is the best way forward to get your hands on lots of quality makeup.

When you are looking at the Front end of the website and you are looking from a buyers point of view and your thinking “That is Expensive”. Compared to pound land, I guess it is, but the quality and the way it makes you feel, knowing you have something elegant on, that feeling is Inspiring.

So once you have the Presenters Kit, it allows you to earn a commission when you sell a product. STOPYou said I didn’t need to sell anything?

People are curious creatures, they want to be part of the pack all the time, they want to keep up with the Jonses, they want to do what you do. My wife put on the lipstick, little bit of makeup and went to the club.

The conversations that her Lipstick started with the compliments and the comments, she let a few try it and see what it was like, she told them how it felt etc and the next day she was contacted on Facebook and they wanted to know more, so she shared the link to the Lipstick she had and then she was getting in emails, You Made a Sale.

She hadn’t done anything, she just got dressed up and changed her makeup to Youniques brand. I heard her ranting and raving, I honestly thought something was wrong, but when I went to check and see, she was jumping around excited that she earned a commission from wearing makeup and talking about it.

That was when she decided that she wanted to take this on as a Business. Now you will hear many people say that

“If you are not a natural born salesman and you don’t know how to marketing online, then it will be difficult to earn a sustainable living with these type of business models.”

Remember the statement at the top, YOU are not a sales person.  Your not here to sell the product,  if you go into this as a business, then all you are here to do is showcase, share it and enjoy it.

If you are seriously looking at this as a Possible Venture, let me tell you NOW. No matter what you have read online, you are not going to join today and be making thousands per month within a few weeks.

The 40 Hour a week Job Scam Younique Younique Business Review TheJobScamBeing Real and Being Honest you can work this part-time and within a few years you can have a really good income and live the lifestyle you always wanted. Now you might scream “What A Few Years”, I’m not doing that it takes too long, but read the Scam Alert Above. Starting on yourself is a good thing. In under NO Circumstances am I ever complaining about a JOB, having a JOB is a great thing, it keeps you socially connected, it keeps you amoungst friends, it also keeps paying your bills, but one important thing. It allows you to build your Home Base Business whilst still earning. Once your business overtakes your offline, then it’s your choice to continue what you are doing. So do me a favor and DO NOT quit your  Job if you get into this.

So looking at this as a Business Venture you need to look LONG Term. Start Locally before you build Globally, work with your upline and get to know them.

Looking at this as a Customer. The products are actually very good quality. Younique make a lot of claims about their products and from the ones that Louise has used, the 3D Lashes and the Concealer, they have shown to live up to their claims. My daughters have started to use the products as well and they all have their favourites.

How to Create Viral Videos for Under $200

One common misconception of creating viral videos is that it needs to be expensive. In reality, your whole project can be launched for under $200. Justin Bieber, the teen pop star, started his claim to fame from his bedroom with an inexpensive camera. Today most of his videos have tens of millions of views.

So how do you create viral videos for under $200?

==> The Video Camera

Today, for as little as $100, you can get a high definition camera that shoots decent video. It’s not professional grade, but if your actual content is good, many web visitors will be willing to overlook that.

Take a trip to Best Buy or Costco, or check out price comparison sites online.

Also don’t forget that many smartphones today have cameras that are more than sufficient to record high quality video. For example, the iPhone 4’s 4 megapixel camera can produce videos that are definitely good enough for online viewing.

==> Shooting the Video

Your video is best shot with a friend. Trying to shoot yourself on video, while possible, is quite difficult.

Experiment with different camera angles to see what looks best. You’ll often have to do multiple takes to get something right. Don’t be surprised if a one-hour video takes you all day to shoot.

==> Editing Your Video

There are many different ways you can edit your video for free.

To start with, use iMovie or Windows Live Movie Maker if it came with your operating system. Though they won’t have special effects or color correcting options, you’ll be able to do most of your basic edits.

If your operating system didn’t come with a video editing program, there are several good free options you can download online.

==> Rendering Your Video

Finally, once you’ve shot your videos and edited your video, the last step is to render your video.

Rendering refers to the last part of the editing process where you actually create your new video file. Generally you’ll want to create a small sized, decent quality video rather than a large high quality video.

YouTube will re-render your video to a smaller size anyway once you upload it.

==> Distributing Your Video

There are several online video distribution services – some paid, some free – that’ll submit your video to a number of different video hosting sites.

Sure, YouTube definitely has the most traffic. But many other sites, like Dailymotion, Metacafe and others still have quite a bit of following. Getting your video on those sites as well can really increase your exposure.

At this point, you’ve bought an inexpensive camera, recorded your video, edited it for free and uploaded it to one or more video distribution sites. If your video is good and has viral potential, it might just take off. Best of all? You’ve spent less than $200 on the whole process.

Thoughts on Improving Self Confidence

Don’t be fooled. Even the most confident people have their insecurities and the most competent are flawed.

Though we may have dreamt of being the perfect persons we see in other people, we have to Confidence Thoughts on Improving Self Confidence confidence 1478299098understand that nothing can be perfect. The things we would want to happen in our lives don’t necessarily happen the way we want them to be however tactful our plans were. The very things we want to attain will not pass by us so long as we won’t work towards achieving them. It takes effort to make things happen though.

And the self confident people have acquired their attributes not out of luck. An author once said that the most beautiful people do not just happen. They must know hardship, they must know suffering, they must know defeat, struggle and loss before they truly understand the depth of their worth.

Everyone is built for recognition, for achievement, for fame. The capacity to be confident of oneself was not given by random, it lies in all of us. Like with all other things we are in equal standing with that of the fellow sitting next to us. The difference though lies in our personal treatments of the capabilities that we were endowed with.

Initial development of self confidence roots from our childhood, the fashion by which we were reared, the opportunities that honed us to be the persons that we are and our reactions to the challenges that were given to us.

At a very young age, we already know how it feels to be humiliated or encouraged. At a very young age, we are already capable of giving interpretations with the way things happen to us. If at childhood we failed to react positively due to reasons like lack of or improper guidance, poor models and insufficient knowledge, it is likely that the succeeding phases of our lives will become dependent with how the things went during these ages.

But with age comes maturity. And maturity arises from the experiences we are encountering. Experiences, as we know them, are among the great teachers we have. Failure to take advantage of the experiences we encounter will only send us back to the same circumstances until we are able to spot where we have gone wrong. Therefore, we have no excuse that we were not given the chance to improve with each experience.

You see, improving self confidence is just a matter of becoming mature. If you will become complacent with the idea of setting back to lack of achievement and recognition then you will fail to comprehend that life is more than mediocre living.

Everyone can improve self confidence regardless of how we were in the past. What only matters is now- the present. If you would take stock of yourself and believe that you have the capacity to be anything and everything you want to be, you are sure to be a step higher towards achieving self confidence.

There are lots of ways that you may take to help you improve your self confidence. The keys are to have the positive attitude that anybody can do anything and adaptation of the belief that you can be anybody and you can be anything you set your mind to be.

If all else fails, remember the moments when you felt good because you were able to achieve something by feeling good about yourself. That way, you will be encouraged to become a better person you always wanted to be.

Improve Self Confidence by Believing in Yourself

Low Self Confidence only boils down from low belief in one self. Now, the obvious cure would be to inculcate faith in yourself, enough to make you believe that things don’t happen out of course but because “you” make things happen.

Believing in oneself however, stems down from our childhood experiences. With lack of poor models or lack of encouragement from those we have learned to associate respect and trust on, it would be likely that our maturity would be marked by ambiguity of self image.

We know for a fact that parents only act according to what they deem appropriate or best for their children. However, doing the Confidence Self Confidence Improve Self Confidence by Believing in Yourself confidence 1478289088best don’t necessarily mean that they qualify to the universal standard of being the best. In fact, there are so many cases when their bests may have been a mediocre standard for others and in some cases, their best is no good at all. Nonetheless, they still perform them because they know nothing better.

No one could be blamed though. We were all brought up depending on the present means that were available at the moment of our growth. We are the products of the people, events and circumstances that were fated to fall as the exact pieces at the exact moment, at the exact place. The environment from which we have grown is sure to be the most perfect environment fit for our personal growth. Our reactions then to these events will determine how well we have understood and coped up with things.

The thing is, we are fully responsible for the state of Self Confidence we presently have. We were given all the artillery to face what lies in our grounds, we were given the people to which we may anchor our faith, we were given enough skills and attributes to help us brave the challenges of growth. The difference though comes from our innate drive to improve and to develop. It also lies in our interpretations and acceptance of things.

Say, we are too coward to face our very fears given that we are equipped with all the things that we need, then the problem now comes from our deliberate deprivation of the confidence we innately have. We have to understand that we are all capable of being confident. If we believe that our childhood did not become an effective means to acquire our Self Confidence then we must realize that it is never too late to improve.

If, however, you have become too comfortable in your comfort zone and could not muster enough will to improve your Self Confidence then be assured of an ordinary life, deprived of the real challenges and pleasures that everyone is entitled to.

Improving Self Confidence is not that hard to achieve. Your journey would be swift depending on your willingness to drive yourself to the end phase and to discard all that you have been acquainted to do (comfort zones).

But you see, in the end it would not really matter how long it took you to improve your self confidence. What matters more is that you have atleast removed yourself from the old ways that you have learned to embrace.

The only place from which we may start is within ourselves. For long, we fed ourselves with impressions coming from the people we are interacting with. For long, we have practiced comparing what we can and what we cannot do with other people. Enough with comparisons! There is nothing to compare. We were all built to fit a specific design that is different from anybody else.

Marketing Stunts: Coming Up with a Brilliant Angle

Throughout marketing history, one of the most effective and unconventional ways of marketing a product is to use a marketing stunt. The cake company that made the world’s largest cake, for example, launched a successful company off the back of a single marketing campaign. History is littered with such examples.

How can you come up with an idea like that for your company? Something that will really get the attention of both media and potential customers? Here’s how.

==> Start Journaling

The moment you decide to start coming up with potential marketing ideas, you’re going to start having ideas in some very strange places.

You might think of an idea while in the car. Or while in the shower. Or while on a jog, or while eating a meal. Write all these ideas down.

Come back to these ideas later and elaborate on them.

==> Brainstorm with Other People

Don’t try to do all your brainstorming on your own. Even if you’re the head of your company, try to get other people involved, even if they’re just friends in the same industry.

Many founders struggle with the belief that they’re better off doing things on their own rather than bringing other people on board to help. This is especially common when it comes to coming up with new ideas. It’s very hard to let go of the sole responsibility to come up with good ideas.

But if your company is going to grow, it needs to happen. That’s why companies like Google encourage their employees to spend 20% of their paid work time on their own ideas. Google knows that Larry Page and Sergey Brin can’t come up with enough good ideas to sustain the company.

The lesson: get other people involved with the brainstorming process.

==> Ask Yourself: How Can I Make This Even Bigger?

Anytime you come up with an idea that sounds good, ask yourself how you can make the idea even bigger.

Let’s say you’re promoting a marketing product and you decide to host a contest where you give away two all-expenses paid trips to a marketing conference.

Instead of just hosting the contest and publishing it on your website, ask yourself: how can I make this even bigger?

You might partner with the marketing conference to open the conference up to all participants. You might do an ad buying campaign to let everyone in the industry know about the contest. These two ideas could take your idea from a 500-person exposure project to a 10,000-people exposure project.

Always ask yourself: how can I make this even bigger?

If you follow these three tips – writing down all your ideas, brainstorming with other people and asking yourself how you can make things even bigger – you’ll quickly develop some winning high-impact campaigns.

Using StumbleUpon for Instant Viral Traffic

StumbleUpon is one of the most powerful websites you could utilize for getting viral traffic to your content. StumbleUpon can send tens of thousands of visitors to your site in a few hours, but it can also become a consistent source of traffic over time.

Because of the nature of StumbleUpon, content which people like has a very good chance of being seen by even more people.

Here’s how to use StumbleUpon for instant viral traffic.

==> Understanding the Mindset

Before designing a campaign for StumbleUpon, it’s crucial that you understand the mindset of Stumblers.

StumbleUpon is a lot like flicking through different channels on a TV, except it’s on the internet and people are flicking through different websites.

StumbleUpon will serve up unique pages and websites to people. If they like it, they can “Thumbs Up” the content, if they don’t they can “Thumbs Down” the content. At any time they can click “Stumble” and see a different site.

It’s very easy for someone who’s bored to “Stumble” away from your site. Likewise, if you get a lot of Stumblers to thumbs up your content, you can quickly get a flood of Stumblers coming in.

==> The Most Important Thing for Targeting Stumblers

The most important thing to keep in mind when you’re targeting StumbleUpon users is that they’re in a very “quick entertainment” mindset.

You need to catch their attention, and you need to do it immediately. In other words, the above the fold area of your website needs to have some sort of shocking or captivating headline or graphic.

People should feel immediately drawn in upon seeing your site. Remember, if you don’t catch their attention, they’ll be gone before you can say “Stumble.”

==> Keeping Their Attention

Throughout your page should be very interesting, emotionally engaging pieces of content. It doesn’t matter if it gets them to laugh, to be outraged or to be shocked – it just has to be emotionally engaging.

You’ll also want to tone down the ads on the page which Stumblers land on. Pages with a lot of ads tend to get downvoted, while pages with fewer ads and more engaging content tends to get upvoted.

==> Getting Your Content on StumbleUpon

So how do you actually get your content on to StumbleUpon?

StumbleUpon frowns on people submitting their own content. You can, but if you do it too often you’ll get your account disabled.

The best way to do it is to first spend a week or so using StumbleUpon yourself. That way you build up some usage history so it doesn’t look like you’re just there to promote; and you also get some experience with the StumbleUpon’s system.

Then, pick one of the best pages on your website and submit it to StumbleUpon. Ideally, you should get enough of a following from StumbleUpon that others will submit your content from then on.

If your content isn’t getting enough uptake, submit another piece of your own content a few weeks later. But make sure you’re also submitting other things and that there’s an interval between your submissions of your own content.
