COMPLIANCE CORNER
I enjoy cooking. While a part of this joy comes from a delicious home cooked meal, there is a larger part that comes from knowing I created that delicious meal. When I watch others enjoy it too? Icing on the proverbial cake, folks.
French toast, lasagna, chicken and dumplings – oh man, I’m getting hungry just thinking about making all my favorite dishes.
Here’s what’s interesting. When I say “lasagna,” you don’t need me to say, “layers and layers of meaty red sauce with crumbles of beef and Italian sausage, chopped veggies and gobs of Italian cheese – mozzarella, ricotta, parmesan.” We all basically KNOW what a lasagna is, right? Some people like theirs with spinach instead of meat, some people even prefer some white sauce mixed in, but it’s all lasagna.
When you’re presenting the PlanNet Marketing Compensation Plan, you don’t have to explain every detail for people – you don’t need to say, “I made $250 when I sold five ITAs in my second week,” and you shouldn’t!! All you have to say is, “Every time you sell an ITA, you get paid $50. Every time. No exceptions, no limits.” Five ITA sales will always earn $250 in weekly commissions, and nine ITA sales will earn $450 and so on and so forth – they can do the math. Just like the lasagna, people can see the potential in all those layers. They don’t need your specific recipe to make lasagna happen for them. Right?
PlanNet Marketing discourages the use of personal earnings statements and suggested earnings potential, such as “I made X dollars in commissions from ITA sales” or even the more vague statements like, “I was able to pay off my debt and buy my dream house.” We are truly humbled that so many of you are experiencing these types of freedoms in your life. But we must be careful how we talk about it to prospects. Not every Rep will have the same story, not every Rep will work as hard as you work, not every Rep will earn what you earn.
Statements that use your past earnings or your lifestyle claims as an enticement to get new Reps to enroll or new ITAs sold are against Policies and Procedures. Don’t do it! You don’t NEED TO! We have an incredible product and a fantastic compensation plan. They can stand on their own. Just present the product we have and talk about the compensation plan that’s in place – don’t try to use yourself or your team as an example. It’s tempting, I know it is, because you feel like you just made a killer lasagna and you want EVERYONE to know how to make their own. Give them a piece – just don’t start handing out that recipe until after they enroll.

CONGRATULATIONS TO LYNDSEY GYNANE FOR ACHIEVING THREE-STAR DIRECTOR!
CONGRATULATIONS TO QUIANA BUTLER FOR ACHIEVING TWO-STAR DIRECTOR!
CONGRATULATIONS TO RAYMOND GANTT FOR ACHIEVING ONE-STAR DIRECTOR!
CONGRATULATIONS TO MARIA RICHARDSON FOR ACHIEVING ONE-STAR DIRECTOR!
Meet new One-Star Director Maria Richardson! Maria tells us, “I am from Tacoma, WA and currently reside in Warner Robins, GA. with my amazing husband, Eric Richardson. I am a proud mother, with our youngest son currently in AIT for the US Army, and I am also a Halmeoni (Korean for grandmother) to three beautiful granddaughters and a grand dog son.
“I love to travel and make memories with my family. Now that I have grandchildren, I completely understand how my mother felt with my children, and just watching them grow is what I cherish the most. I've been to Mexico, the Dominican Republic, the Bahamas, Canada and 20 states with Miami, FL being our favorite place to visit. However, there is so much more of the world that I want to explore and with this opportunity, my husband and family will be able to experience all parts of the world!
“A tip that I would pass along is there is definitely power in plugging in. This is the first time I have ever done network marketing and once I plugged in, everything shifted; I became more confident and postured up. I listen to my coach, Director Tisha DeShields, and bring the notes to life. What I absolutely love about this company is that people who have no financial ties to you will extend themselves to help you without ever batting an eye. However, the biggest tip I can give is to keep your WHY in front of you and remember WHY you are doing this, and to not give up on yourself, family, and most importantly your WHY.
“Simply just do the work, follow the system, trust your coach, read, and stay close to your core and those wanting to run with you will see the vision and remember it's bigger than just one person. There are so many people this opportunity can help; we just need to get out there and help change some lives.
“A fun fact about me: I enjoy scrapbooking, taking the pictures and making stories out of them. I try to capture as much as I can, because I know one day those pictures will be all we have to remember.”

PLANNET MARKETING WELCOMES FOUR NEW 20/20 CLUB MEMBERS!
MEET 20/20 CLUB MEMBER KEYONA GREGORY!
PlanNet Marketing is pleased to welcome Keyona Gregory to the 20/20 Club! Keyona is from and currently resides in Kansas City, MO. She shares, “I have been married to the love of my life for nine years! We have four beautiful children that range from elementary to middle school age. I am an IT Healthcare Professional and have been in the healthcare industry for the past 11 years.
“I love to travel and help others do the same!!! My favorite place to visit and book for my clients are the Caribbean islands and cruise line vacations. My first cruise was a 7-day cruise, and it changed my life forever. I immediately fell in love and just knew I would be back. For the past three years, I have gone back and booked large groups as well, which means I earned a nice commission every time!
“I also love helping people, so sharing this amazing opportunity with others just came easy to me. I really enjoy meeting new people and building relationships with folks that are like-minded! Helping people gain that financial, personal and time freedom is rewarding within itself! I encourage everyone in this business to be themselves, plug into the training, be duplicatable and have FUN! When you do something you LOVE it never feels like working!!!”
MEET 20/20 CLUB MEMBER ANNA HOPKINS!
PlanNet Marketing is pleased to welcome Anna Hopkins to the 20/20 Club! Anna grew up in Central London (down the road from HRH Lizzie) and moved to Chelmsford in Essex 19 years ago, which she says, in contrast, was like the countryside to her. “I am a mum to three gorgeous children: Frankie (21), Alfie (15) and Billy (9), who keep me very busy!
“Growing up, my family always either holidayed in the UK or we would visit my relatives in Sicily every year, as my dad is Sicilian. This tradition has continued, and I now take my family over there to see our Sicilian family and show them some of the beauty of the country. We have been lucky enough to have also travelled to Morocco and Tenerife as a family. I have also been fortunate to have cruised from the UK to New York, which was amazing and a lovely anniversary treat, as well as having our honeymoon in Jamaica.
“Through having my own travel business, I have recently also ventured to Las Vegas, which absolutely blew my mind and can’t wait to return with my family!!
“How am I achieving success with PlanNet Marketing? I am plugging into the amazing leaders that I am surrounded by! It’s not rocket science; they have all been where I am, and having watched them succeed, I listen to their advice and make sure I am coachable and consistent!! We all have the same tools, and I am using them to their fullest extent to ensure that I get that Jacket by the end of the year and that my team also claims their dreams and goals.
“Being a Formula 1 enthusiast, I was very lucky to have won a competition and to have interviewed Lewis Hamilton a few years ago when he was with McLaren; he was a very down-to-earth gentleman with huge goals and the determination to succeed. I was also fortunate to have watched the Grand Prix in Abu Dhabi, and of course Silverstone here in the UK.
“I made the decision to make this my full-time source of income and recently resigned from the school I worked at, so as of September I am working this business full-time!! Some of you may think ‘Why? You’re only at 20/20!!’ I am, BUT I have the belief, I have the work ethic and I have the determination to go all the way. Am I going to be aiming low? HECK NO!!!”
MEET 20/20 CLUB MEMBER ROGER LILLARD!
PlanNet Marketing is pleased to welcome Roger Lillard to the 20/20 Club! Roger is originally from Pittsburgh, PA and now resides in Baltimore, MD.

I have two decades of network marketing experience and I want to help as many people as I can win in this industry. I thank Donald Bradley for his courage to create this opportunity because it saved my network marketing career. PlanNet Marketing is a legacy company in the making and we all are blessed to be a part of it!”
MEET 20/20 CLUB MEMBER SOPHIE O’NEILL!
PlanNet Marketing is pleased to welcome Sophie O’Neill to the 20/20 Club! Sophie says, “A little about me – I lost my job this year due to Covid. I took the leap and joined the business in June, six weeks before achieving 20/20 Club. I have been focused and love spreading the word to sign people up. My passion is to travel, so a business where I could make money and help my customers save was a no-brainer!!
