PLANNET MARKETING WELCOMES TEKESHA ROBERSON TO THE 60/60 CLUB!
PLANNET MARKETING WELCOMES EIGHT NEW 20/20 CLUB MEMBERS!
Each week we will list the new 20/20 Club Members as soon as their pictures are received so that their recognition will be timely. The personal 20/20 Club features will continue; currently there are many 20/20 Club Members who have sent in their bios, but due to the growing number, have not yet been featured in the blog. Watch for your bio in future editions of PlanNetNow!
Recognition is very important and we hope this new format shows how much we value our 20/20 Club Members! Congratulations to everyone who has achieved this very important level in your PlanNet business!
MEET 20/20 CLUB MEMBER TJ HAYGOOD!
PlanNet Marketing is pleased to welcome TJ Haygood to the 20/20 Club! TJ tells us that she is originally from St. Petersburg, FL. “We moved to Mt. Clemens, Michigan when I was five; however, I would go back to Florida every summer through high school to visit my grandparents, which was awesome. I graduated from high school one year early at 16.
“Interestingly, I initially did not want to go to college. My "Plan A" was to become an airline stewardess so I could travel the world. Just in case that did not work out, my "Plan B" was to go into sales so I could make enough money to pay for my desire to travel all the time. However, my parents were very traditional and desired for me to go to college. Thankfully, I complied, which worked out in the end because I met my husband in college and he provided me with the opportunity to travel the world for 25 and 1/2 years during his active duty military career and thereafter. It has been an honor to serve with him as a military spouse.
“My interests are family, faith, and entrepreneurship. I love creating and running traditional and home-based businesses and serving others. It may be obvious by now, but I really love to travel, so the marriage between PlanMet Marketing and InteleTravel is an ideal opportunity for me. My travel experiences include residing in seven states (NC, DE, CA, MI, CO, IL, and TX), Washington DC, and England. For vacation and/or work, I have also had the opportunity to travel to over a dozen countries, including Canada, Mexico, England, France, Scotland, Norway, Dubrovnik, Croatia, Belgium, Italy, Greece, Turkey, Israel, Bahamas, Jamaica, Puerto Rico, Hawaii, and Amsterdam.
“You asked how I am achieving success in PlanNet Marketing. I would say initially it was definitely prayer and passion. However, as I continued to grow in knowledge, I had to learn to become more coachable, which has helped tremendously. The State of the Plannet Sunday night calls also have had a great impact on my success. I would definitely recommend to those who really want to be successful in either or both companies, that they must commit to reading the training manuals, policies and procedures, watching the training webinars and videos, attending weekly meetings when available, and participating in the Facebook group pages for both companies. Our virtual office online training opportunities are amazing!
“Fun facts: I am a mother of two adult sons, ages 35 and 34. My husband and I have been married 37 years on November 27, 2019. I am an official Yellow Rose of Texas and I twirled a baton in high school and college as a head majorette. I have always had a small business of some sort on the side over the years. I have even created, established, closed, and/or sold traditional small businesses and I have created a small nonprofit for veterans called LeftRightStep.org, a career education and training company. However, I am so passionate about this opportunity that I do not want to do anything else that distracts me from my goal of becoming a One-Star Director before the next Convention.
As a military spouse who moved around every two to three years with my husband, I never positioned myself to earn a retirement check. The PlanNet Marketing Pledge is a gift from God. It is my personal retirement program. I am eternally grateful for Mr. Bradley's vision and his servant heart, along with his wife, who supports this gigantic mission he is on. I also appreciate and thank Mr. Cauthen and the entire staff at PlanNet Marketing, along with Mr. Ferrara and the entire staff at InteleTravel. May God continue to grant each of us favor in this business venture.
MEET 20/20 CLUB MEMBER JEHANE THOMAS!
PlanNet Marketing is pleased to welcome Jehane Thomas to the 20/20 Club! Jehane is from Doncaster, South Yorkshire (UK). She enjoys spending every day with her baby boy, spending their days at the zoo, aquarium, and visiting friends and family!
Jehane shares, “I am living proof you do not need to actively travel to have great success with this business. Since having Isaac, I have not been able to travel as much as I’ve wanted to. We’ve been to Cornwall since he was born, but we have a long list of places we will be travelling when I go full-time as a travel business owner. Travelling Greece is at the top of my list as I absolutely love the island.
“My top tip is to remember your ‘why.’ Your business will get tough but you need to remember WHY you started in the first place. Do you want to replace your full-time income and sack your boss? Do you want to travel the world? Whatever it is, don’t stop until you achieve your goal. My ‘why’ is Isaac. Every day I wake up, get out of bed, and work hard because of him and I won’t stop working until my business becomes my full-time job and I can travel the world with him.
“Consistency is key. You can’t put one hour in and then nothing for a few days. You need to put in consistent work every day. I read the book ‘The Compound Effect,’ which has made a huge impact in what I do every day. Working on your personal development is very important! When you think positive, positive things will happen!
“A fun fact about me... I am the BIGGEST Harry Potter geek ever!”

COMPLIANCE CORNER
Keep it Social and Transparent
We allow our Reps to use many social media platforms – such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, and other blogs and forums within these sites and others. Each of these sites offers the Rep and prospect the ability to see who the other person is – it’s social networking. Network Marketing is our business, so it’s a perfect match! I love interacting with friends, family, and PlanNet Marketing folks via my Facebook account. Everyone knows who I am, and I can see who they are – it’s transparent.
Please do not use job posting websites or forums. We do not allow our Reps to use sites that exist exclusively for posting jobs, such as ZipRecruiter, Indeed, Monster, CareerBuilder, Reed, or Craigslist. These websites are not “social” media platforms and do not allow for a social or networking environment. They only allow for blind ads to be placed that can be misleading, deceptive, impersonal, not social, and not networking. It’s too easy for misunderstandings and mishaps to happen via these platforms. In addition, even the approved social media websites have forums or sections dedicated solely to job postings – please avoid using these areas of the website. PlanNet Marketing does not allow the use of “job” postings to promote your business – we aren't offering a "job," and that's a good thing because we offer so much more!
Not only do we want to be the Best Place on the PlanNet, we want to be the place best known for our integrity and transparency – no need to hide behind a blind ad – we offer an amazing product that anyone would want to purchase and an opportunity that can change lives.
So keep tweeting and instagramming and messaging and get the word out about your business – but do it the right way, through approved social media sites!
Please feel free to contact me at compliance@plannetmarketing.com with any questions about this or other compliance matters. I’ll get back to you super fast!

TOP 5 RACE TO FIVE-STAR DIRECTOR
CONGRATULATIONS TO VANIA REDD FOR ACHIEVING ONE-STAR DIRECTOR!
MEET NEW ONE-STAR DIRECTOR SANDRA REYNOLDS!
Meet new PlanNet Marketing One-Star Director Sandra Reynolds. Sandra is a native New Yorker and now resides in Locust Grove, Georgia. She shares, “My interests are my family, bowling, shopping, traveling, and PlanNet Marketing. Initially I was in PlanNet, and now PlanNet is in me. I love helping my sideline partners as much as I love helping my team. I'm traveling far more now than I ever had prior to joining this incredible opportunity, and my bucket list is now my planning list!
“I am achieving my success by never missing our weekly meetings and special events, by checking with my team on a weekly basis by phone, and by traveling to our teams in different cities and states to keep them engaged. Leading by example encourages your team to do the same. Whenever someone mentions traveling to attend one of our events, I ask where and when because that means shopping at a new location!!!
TOP 10 RACE TO FOUR-STAR DIRECTOR
THE PLANNET MARKETING SPOTLIGHT SHINES ON: SERESA AND DUANE CROWSON
1. Where were you born and raised; current city; family; hobbies; past business highlights...
Duane and I were both born on the north side of Houston, TX. It’s where we met, married, and raised our family. We just celebrated our 26th wedding anniversary. We have been blessed! We have four amazing sons, a daughter-in-law, a handsome grandson (our Peanut), and a precious granddaughter (our LadyBug).
Our family has always loved adventure. Camping, hiking, and all sorts of outdoor activities have kept us close to one another. Now that we have a travel business, our adventures have gone global.
We did not know about PlanNet from day one, but we did get here as quickly as possible (day 381!). Our lives will never be the same. With no experience in the industry, we accomplished Directorship after only three months and earned the Sapphire Ring after only two years in the industry. However, our greatest joy in the business has been the accomplishments of our team – builders and bookers throughout the US, México , and beyond. Watching (and assisting) our great México team lead the way in that new market has been exhilarating!
2. How have you grown or personally developed since joining PlanNet?
This business is truly a self-development program with a compensation plan attached. The more you improve yourself, the more your bank account improves!!
I’ve had to be honest with the person in the mirror. We all have room for improvement. Learning to handle adversity, lead a team, and manage my time have been my focus. Most importantly, I’m learning who I am through this process. As a wife and mom, it’s easy to lose your identity. This business has helped me rediscover my passions and learn who I am. For the first time in my adult life, I feel whole. I am independent and self-confident.
3. What drives you; what motivates you?
There are several things that drive me. First, my family. My husband has worked far too hard for far too long. I want him to be able to retire early and have a business that he enjoys every day the way we do with PlanNet. I want my sons to never have to know true struggle. Never have student loans or debt. I never want my grandchildren to have knowledge of tougher times.
Next, I wanted to know that if anything happened to my husband, I would be okay. Financially depending on one person put me in a vulnerable place. I wanted to know that I could support myself, support my sons, and spoil my grandchildren if tragedy occurred. Medical emergencies have been a reality in my life. I wanted to be prepared...just in case. That led me to realize there are so many women in this world who need that same peace of mind. I want to help them achieve that! There are also women in abusive marriages who need the finances to free their family. They should never have to stay in a bad situation simply because of finances. Whether personal or financial, there are so many people who need help out there. Helping them is a passion of mine.
Finally, my family has a heart for mission work. We want to help those in need around the globe, starting in Puerto Rico where multiple disasters have occurred in recent years. Doing that type of work requires finances. We want to be able to self-fund and not be dependent on others’ donations to do the work we know we are called to do.
4. Who would you consider a role model and why?
In life, I look to my faith for direction. As a Christian, I am a follower of Jesus Christ. He is the ultimate example.
In business, I have two men I follow (and consider coaches). Aquarius Jackson has been by my side since the day we met. His experience, guidance, and belief in me is responsible for the success I have seen this far. He never holds back and tells me what I need to hear, not what I want to hear. He is dedicated to this business and loyal to PlanNet. His example has taught me so much. If I can be to others a fraction of the coach he has been to me, lives will be changed.
The second would be Donald Bradley. He and Mrs. Bradley are the example of success I want to achieve. Their integrity and dedication to others has shown me that this industry is truly about relationships. They have created a culture of family and professionalism that sets the standard for my personal business. When someone has achieved what you want, you should follow them. That is certainly the case with the Bradleys.
A female role model in this business doesn’t take much deliberation. Eileen Ross sets the bar for class, poise and professionalism among women. It doesn’t matter that we are not in the same “pay line,” she has been an advocate, support, and example for us all. Her example shows the entire company how to truly put people above profit and help the entire PlanNet. I try to gauge most of my decisions as a woman in this company by asking “Would Eileen Ross do that?” She is my standard.
5. The three words that describe you best are:
Loyal, Driven, Competitive.
6. If you had some sound advice to give to anyone what would it be?
Get very deep with your why! Find the why that you NEED like you NEED to breathe and nothing can stop you. If you can think of something that would make you quit, your why is not strong enough! Quitting (or slowing down) is not an option. You can’t stop breathing for a few days and start again, so treat your business the same way. It’s constant and consistent.
7. What does your life look like five years from now?
We have no question about our five years. It was decided long ago. The goal is set and will be accomplished. We will be at $1 million/year by then and helping others get to that place as well.
