WANT TO EXPERIENCE IT FOR YOURSELF?
EACH WEEK for this month, we’ll be giving away SAMPLE PERSONAL ASSISTANT GIFT CARD for VIPs like you so you can have access to your VERY OWN PERSONAL  ASSISTANT and see just why we LOVE THIS SERVICE.

NOT SO FAST…

Being a member of the network is the first step to qualify (join here: www.ownyourpower.ning.com) and  you must STATE YOUR CASE.

 
In 100-300 words post in our message board  called, “I NEED A PERSONAL ASSISTANT “ why YOU need a personal assistant to help you out. Let us know what your major time issue is, what would you use your assistant to help you with, etc..?
Please note: This is a “virtual” personal assistant so,  they can’t pick up your kids from school,  do door -to -door sales, run errands, wash dishes, or  stuff envelopes.  So Sorry! I wish they could too. LOL

OUR FIRST WINNER!

Sonja Denyse, Radio Show Producer/Owner was our first winner of the Personal Assistant contest!

“I called and set up my new personal assistant and it was sooooooo easy! What a relief it is knowing I have a helping hand that really makes me look bigger and better. I will be signing up for the service! Thanks Simone and Own Your Power!”

Our second winner, Ajike Kendrick who is a spiritual coach says: “I just used the service. I had the VIP concierge follow up with two clients about appointments. I received a text as confirmation, and it was done. It was good to not have to do that myself! It made me realize that though it only takes a couple of minutes to do it myself, those minutes add up and multiply–why not use that time for something else? I don’t HAVE to do it! I can scratch that off my list. Thanks so much! I’m hooked. The possibilities are endless.”

Winner number three, Barbara  Roman said, “I was so happy that I won the virtual assistant! I am the type of person that has to try before you buy. I was so impressed by their customer service. The 24 hour service is great! I was working late (11:30 pm); sent my email script so they can follow up with my current appointment and they confirm that they receive my email in minutes. They did the work, that I didn’t have the time to do. The stress of doing it all is now over. Defenitly signing up. It’s worth the money. Thanks Simone for the hook up and for giving me the peace of mind I was looking for! Call me so I can get started.”

 Barbara Roman, Mary Kay Consultant, Florida

Each Friday by 5PM EST we’ll pick a weekly  winner. Own Your Power’s team will be the judges each week!

DON’T WAIT POST NOW!

Did you know that approximately 85% of Fortune 500 companies use barter as a way of obtaining skills and resources without spending a lot of money? These companies include Donald Trump’s Enterprises, McDonald’s, Pepsi, Sara Lee, Dole, and many, many more!!!

Are you a Give ‘N Take Network Member who hasn’t started bartering yet? Or are you someone who’d love to join and take advantage of the oldest currency in the world? Well then, SHOW US YOUR GOODS!!!

Participate in the SHOW US YOUR GOODS!!! contest and you’ll get the chance to win prizes valued up to $500!:

- $100 BARTER BUCKS (aka Give ‘N Take Trade Dollars) so that you can go shopping in our barter exchange. You’ll have over 40,000 merchants to choose from, with the opportunity to barter everything from printing services to lavish vacations!

- 4 COMPLIMENTARY Coaching sessions with your choice of 4 coaches from our round table of hand-picked experts! (1 session per coach)

-A copy of the “Best of” The Own Your Power Radio Show CD

How Can I Play?
All you have to do is create a barter store page. A barter store page is similar to a profile page in the Own Your Power community (www.ownyourpower.ning.com), only you will need to sell a service or a good. If you don’t think you have anything to offer, consider items in your home or office. A computer, vacuum cleaner, cool vase, or a used digital camera. It’s similar to Ebay, but instead of cash, you sell things for BARTER BUCKS!

Step 1: If you’re not a Give ‘N Take Network Member, take advantage of our FREE registration!

Step 2: Once your membership has been approved, create your page and SHOW US YOUR GOODS!!! Don’t worry, you don’t have to be a web designer! A panel of Give ‘N Take judges will review your page based on the following criteria:
-Company Logo
-Photo of item with description (always a PLUS). If you’re selling a service a headshot is always good.
-Contact information; website address if you have one (if you don’t have a website, you can always use your Own Your Power Community profile page, ex:
http://ownyourpower.ning.com/profile/SimoneKellyBrown
-Testimonial (s) Depending on service/goods
-Shipping price (if needed)
-Quantity on hand: Even if it’s a service you want to list what you’re willing to barter. For example: Our Give ‘N Take Network Founder, Simone Kelly-Brown has 4 hours of coaching as one of her items up for barter.

Once you join, make sure you call our Marketing Coordinator, Salima Smith, to set up a 30 minute orientation to help you with any questions you may have. Salima can be reached at 877.545.7352.
