HUB for MLMers

I made this video to speak to all of the MLMers out there who want to see something totally different:

Hunters vs. Farmers...

This is one of my favorites of Eric Worre's show "Network Marketing Pro".



Duuuuude- I have been SUCH a hunter, and have been looking for ways to go from a sniper shot to a BAZOOKA!
That's what a lot of the "Sponsor 30 people a day" people sell- the Bazooka.

I've recently been changing a lot of that thought process, but the truth is it's a difficult switch to make. While watching this I had a small epiphany. The action of "Taking it away" I saw as a great TACTIC to "use" on prospects to get them to join, but I heard a voice in my head (I hear them all the time, don't worry) say "Yes, Bones, maybe- but I would suggest you use the "take away" not as a tactic on them but on YOURSELF- to remind yourself that they may NOT be for it."

Smart voice, huh?

HUB has partnered with StarShine Academy, to provide a HUB/StarShine Quintessential Teacher Training Program to 400 teachers in Monrovia, Liberia August 19 to 21, 2009!

4. Music is the first language.



5. Beautiful, safe environments that are clean and include art, music and nature inspire creativity and help to secure man’s sustainability.

7. Celebrating local culture and global diversity allows for a rich life.


8. Practice Connect versus Convince; Exercise Compassion versus Judgment, Love versus Fear.

The Quintessential Teacher Training that will be delivered in Monrovia, Liberia August 19 to 21st was first taught on July 28, 2008 to 25 StarShine teachers. The focus of the training was to provide training for teacher’s individual, personal commitment toward body, mind, spirit, health, wealth and happiness and to give the teachers a foundation of support and vision for the change that they are creating within each of their students, as well as the world.

QTT has a proprietary and proven way to bring cutting edge solutions to administrators, teachers, volunteers or others who work, particularly in schools known for their high risk student population. Through reenergizing teachers, these students, in the US and around the world, are lead into the discovery and fulfillment of their very destiny. At the earliest ages students begin to live purposeful, passionate, prosperous…and peace-full lives.

CNN films HUB/YAI

HUB is to be on CNN!

CNN sent a film crew to feature Kimmie Weeks during the July HUB Purposing trip. The program, “Voices in Africa,” is projected to start airing worldwide on CNN towards the end of August 2009.

Kimmie has certainly become a major voice in Africa as probably the continent’s most acclaimed youth activist. Billboards with his picture and quotes to empower the youth of Liberia are located on road sides around the capital.

The feature was arranged by HUB UK’s Daniella Boutin and followed HUB and Kimmie’s YAI visiting multiple impact locations, as well as featuring one on one interviews. CNN is now in talks to produce a Social Enterprise program dedicated to the HUB business model.

Since its launch in 2008, HUB has attracted regular positive news features in the USA from FOX (Miracle on Main Street, Homeless in LA and The Obama Bracelet) as well as in Canada as HUB Calgary GAVE BIG http://www.divshare.com/download/5480143-5f7.

“As soon as we arrived in Liberia, Kimmie and I were featured on a 2-hour talk radio program across the country and then, after an initial press conference, HUB’s first year impact in Liberia was detailed prominently in the national newspapers. It is good to move from “we are planning” to “we have accomplished xyz and look forward to continued expanded programs,” states Charlie. ”The CNN pieces just continue to add credibility for our members to share HUB more effectively. Spryte and I were delighted to bring this attention to Kimmie and the extraordinary developments we witness in Liberia.”

Inspirational Tool Of The Week

Professor Muhammad Yunus

Medal of Freedom Recipient

HUB's birth coincided with us hosting two events for Professor Muhammad
Yunus, the world's pioneer of social enterprise. He encouraged Charlie with
words about moving forward as a for-profit business, circulating dollars
and focusing education and enterprise as our core impact. We have followed
this counsel.

Last week Dr. Yunus received the Medal of Freedom from

President Obama, and his long-time colleague and HUB speaker Sam Daley
Harris, chairman of the Micro Credit Summit, wrote this news item featured
in HUB News. Included on the page with the article is an interview with Charlie Rose.

Shine Week

August 16th through August 22nd

Greetings, HUB members!

When we birthed HUB, I had learned much as executive
director of the Sole of Africa with Nelson Mandela as patron, and was
influenced greatly by Dr. Muhammad Yunus.

The biggest lesson these great teachers gave us was that in our quest to make
poverty disappear, we must first see the developing world shift from just
receiving aid to giving valued products made within their own communities. This means both in farming and energy to
deal with malnutrition, and in the making of products for an expanding global
market place

This week, HUB's community, with your essential support, starts to carry
out a program which may have the greatest long-term impact in Liberia
emergence.

With Youth Action International and one of our education partners, Star Shine
Academy, HUB is embarking on a program teaching teachers... starting
with 400 of them!

Mandela stated, as many have since, "We must teach the fisherman to fish."

HUB is not only giving the fish until the fisherman gets the fishing rod,
BUT now we are teaching teachers to inspire and educate an entire generation.

As we all move together towards a Future Worth Choosing, HUB thanks you
and asks for you to embrace and take action around this vital program as we
unveil the details to you.
