Foreword

The 2012 Spiral Notebook Plan update is better than ever!

My name is Bob Giddens. I learned about network marketing at age 28. I was within a few months of leaving the Navy and my first thought was to do Amway full time. Seven months later I picked up my last military paycheck, and it was obvious I needed a job. I had 100 people in my group (diversified into 4 main Legs), but Amway was not paying off...

I switched from Amway to Shaklee and was also about to take a job with Exxon—or so I thought. The job involved managing the recovery of oil from their South Texas oil fields. It sounded interesting, and I would have enjoyed it. But in my final interview, the bigwig in Corpus Christi asked, "Where would you like to be in 5 years if you take this job?" He caught me off guard.

"I'd like to be president of Exxon," I said.

The proper answer would have been, "I'd like to be a respected engineer with an opportunity to move up in the company." I knew I'd goofed when I saw his face go pale. He liked me; but a highly ambitious and competitive young guy is not likely to be happy as a seismograph analyst. The job was not offered.

Shaklee became a do or die thing for me. It was 1971, and shortly thereafter—after trying and not doing well with a couple of day planner systems—I came up with the Spiral Notebook Plan. Over a 39-year period it has been used by thousands of people. I've used it to build half a dozen networks.

The Spiral Notebook Plan is a getting started tool.

It can be used for a special campaign or blitz.

It is a great example setting tool and training guide.

And it's a marvelous follow-up resource.

Diligent spiral notebooking generates more leads than you can possibly use—and better leads!

Want to change your life? If so, read The Spiral Notebook Plan and follow it precisely. See if you have what it takes to stay on it for 45 days.
