Welcome to my blog.  My name is  Es Riggins and thank you for visiting.  Starting an internet business can be a mysterious and threatening journey into the vast cyber wasteland. At first glance, it seems a peaceful and friendly enough place. Everywhere you click you see page after page of opportunities for you to become wealthy beyond your wildest dreams, by tomorrow, working less than one hour a day.

There is much more involved in becoming successful on the internet than getting up the price of the product or opportunity and a month’s worth of advertising. If someone tries to tell you different, I will again refer you to the simplistic definition of HYPE.

I am here to help you navigate the ice fields and slip past the pirates that abound on the internet today.   Think of me as finding that message in a bottle that has the answers for you.

There will never be any high pressure sales tactics and no income claims will be exaggerated and no cost of doing business will be understated.  I do not represent, nor will we represent, any ‘get rich quick scheme’.

A PERSONAL PRODUCT EVALUATION METHODOLOGY

I would like to share my business philosophy with you today.

The ‘BEST Home Based Business Ever Offered to Mankind’

It almost seems that each and every business opportunity advertised on the internet makes a claim along those lines, some are just more ‘BEST’ than others.

Pardon the grammatical faux pas. I used to buy into a lot of those exaggerated claims of fame and fortune, far more than anyone with common sense should, and I like to think that I have common sense, but, desire almost always overrides common sense.

You know what, let’s leave out the fame part, I always wanted to be anonymously wealthy. Yes, I know, it’s asking too much, but a person must have dreams.

But, doesn’t it just make sense?

There are these great products, millions of people on the internet and a super duper delivery system, EMAIL.

All you have to do, is pay your money to get into the business, buy the products, send out loads of email to advertise your new business and great products, and watch the cash come rolling in.

Success is yours!

Right!

If it happened that way for you, congratulations, I am happy for you.

It didn’t happen that way for me and pulling from my personal experiences and the stories I have been told recanting the experiences of others, it just doesn’t.

It may have happened that way in the past, before everyone’s mailbox was flooded on a daily basis with 50 of the ‘new best business opportunities’ along with 100 of the latest ‘must have’ products.

Now I am convinced that it won’t happen that way again.

If it was ever there, easy and inexpensive internet success is gone.

Soooh, now what?

Jumping from the latest ‘Best’ internet business ever to the newest ‘Best’ internet business ever offered to mankind, doesn’t work, I tried that too.

I finally realized that I had to actually start looking at my internet ‘ad-ventures’ as a real business, what a concept.

I had to start thinking about what I was doing and what I was going to do instead of letting someone else tell me ‘all you have to do is…., do what I do’.

I listened to that line too many times.

Well, wouldn’t you, after all, this person is wildly successful doing exactly the same thing they are telling me, right?

Right Again…

Most of the people you are listening to are just like you, and are repeating the same phrases they heard when they bought into the business opportunity they are promoting.

Just to be fair and not sound too bitter or critical, some of us will get lucky and find a savvy business partner who truly knows how to build an internet business.

I’m pretty sure you’ve heard the term ‘Heavy Hitter’, everyone is looking for these people, finding a ‘Heavy Hitter’, insures your success.

It makes being in business so easy and enjoyable, all your friends will see you as the successful internet entrepreneur, your downline volume is so huge you win a free lease for the car of your dreams, how great is that? You made it happen.

What if you don’t stumble across a ‘Heavy Hitter’?

I mean, don’t get me wrong, it would be great and I hope you do find someone with those credentials, but, you must realize there just aren’t enough heavy hitters for everyone to have one in their business, what do you do then?

The point I am trying to make here is this, don’t expect someone else to be responsible to build your business, its’ your business, it’s up to YOU!

O.K.

Let’s say a great uncle you never heard of dies suddenly and you inherit a million dollars.

The only stipulation in the will is that you must use this money to buy or start your own business.

Are you going to just ‘try’ the first thing that looks good and see what happens?

I don’t think so, I hope not. I think you are going to see the opportunity that was presented to you by your benefactor; you are going to get serious and focused.

You realize that this is your shot, your one chance to really change your life and be truly successful, and the chance to provide a wonderful life for your family, just like you always imagined you would.

So why wouldn’t you take the same serious and focused approach with your own hard earned cash?

I can’t answer that question myself, it really doesn’t have an answer, but I have been there before, guilty as charged your honor.

It’s not a million dollars, but, you are looking at a business venture with the same intent; you want to change your life, you want to give your deserving family a better life and you want to be financially independent and live the dream.

So say we all.

Now, how did I get out of my ‘throw enough garbage against the wall and see what sticks’ mode of operation?

Well, the biggest reason was that I got tired of seeing the disappointment in my wife’s eyes.

I got tired of finding an excuse for the latest failed business.

Favorite EXCUSE

I mean, really, I only invested a few thousand dollars, and what did I actually think I was going to make from such a small investment?

That was my all time favorite. I never really invested enough money to make any serious money.

How about if I made a profit?

After all, it was a business wasn’t it, shouldn’t I have expected to at least make some kind of a profit?

STU PED

As you can see, I still have some anger issues with myself over my past business indiscretions.

If I ever offer to introduce you to my ex-business partner, Stu Ped, please turn me down.

I don’t need any further business advice from Stu and neither do you.

LET’S SEE WHAT STICKS METHOD

My personal business or product evaluation methodology was more or less born out of desperation.

Failure was no longer an option; my kitchen walls are too slick for my previous business selection method to be effective so, I had to develop another, one that required a little more thought and analysis.

I never wrote about my previous business selection methodology, so I didn’t have to give it a descriptive name, or for that matter embarrass myself.

If I had, I suppose I could have dubbed it ‘Sticky Walls’ or the SW Methodology so no one would really know what was going on, I know I didn’t have a clue.

Since I am writing about my current methodology, a descriptive name is in order.

I chose to call it ‘Tripodology’, further reading will reveal why.

It is still a work in progress, but it does serve to

(a) make me take a long hard look, and

(b) make me take a long hard look.

I hope you’re still with me and you take the time to read the rest of this posting.

‘TRIPODOLOGY’

A DEFINITION

What is ‘Tripodology’?

As the name suggest, there are three components, or ‘legs’, to my personal ‘product evaluation methodology’, that I like to refer to as ‘Tripodology.

In order for me to consider adding a new business income stream, the ‘candidate’ must have three legs to stand on.

You can run with two legs and still make money, but real stability and security comes with three legs, which is why photographers use tripods.

The first leg of the potential new opportunity is ‘real value’, the second leg is the potential for exceptional monetary reward, and lastly, there must be a delivery system.

I don’t know about you, but if I failed to mention it before, I am now, I don’t like selling.

The two key components of ‘Real Value’ and ‘Income Potential’ are the door openers.

Calling people on the phone day and night, going through a script time after time, is just not for me.

I know it works, it just doesn’t work for me. I will not try and ‘talk’ anyone into anything.

You are educated and intelligent, you either see the value in the products and opportunity or you don’t. It is either something you want or not.

If I could talk you into buying something that wasn’t for you, I am the only one who benefits, ‘one time only’.

That is just not good business, you feel cheated and I earned a demerit on some blog somewhere on the internet.

Enough demerits and I might as well become a Wal-Mart greeter, no insult intended to Wal-Mart greeters, it’s an honest job, again, just not for me.

In order for me to have you as a ‘repeat customer’, someone in business with me, I have to deliver real value and opportunity.

Helping you grow and become successful, helps me grow and become successful.

And now, to wrap this up, I will give the abbreviated conclusion.

Once again, apply the first leg of my ‘Tripod’, which is, ‘Value’ , coupled with a product that passes the ‘WAA Test’, increases the potential for sales, which generates greater monetary ‘Rewards’ , otherwise known as ‘Big Cash’, or leg number two, and last but certainly not the least, we have leg number three, an automated ‘Proven Marketing System’ .

An opportunity that puts all three legs of the ‘Tripod’ in place gives you a clear margin for success, which is my idea of Business Insurance .

The formula for success:

Value+Rewards+ProvenMarketingSystem=BusinessInsurance

TriVita is a business I chose because it has high quality products backed by science that help people to experience wellness.   I can just acquire customers from the company and they do all the follow up for me.  TriVita generates customers through infomercials, radio ads, direct mail and the internet.  But if you’re someone that likes to sell, they have a new product that have just rolled out called Nopalea that has had over 100 scientific tests proven to reduce inflammation.  It’s from their new Sonoran Bloom product line.  With the launch of the new product, TriVita launched an addition to their business model called the Share and Earn model.  You can get started for $35.00 and earn $500 to $2,000 within your first 30 to 90 days with the Income Accelerator.  TriVita is not a cookie cutter solution.  You can build the business the way you want to and that’s what I like about TriVita.

I hope you found my Personal Product Evaluation Methodology interesting, informative and helpful.

Take control of the future of your business success from day one.

Get Serious!

Get Focused!
