IF this article does not apply to you, great. However, as you prospect others, I promise you this WILL be an issue for many of them. So read on.
One (not only) but one of the big hinderances to growing your InCruises business is TIME. So, what takes up too much wasted time for many people?
The answer: The Electronic Income Reducer (or EIR). You may be wondering, What is the Electronic Income Reducer? The answer is: The Television or TV.
There are 2 areas of the EIR-TV that will address: Time and Cost
Time:
The average person in the USA spends between 2 hours – 4 hours 45 minutes each day watching television. Wow! What could you accomplish if you turned OFF the EIR-TV and spent that same amount of time on the phone prospecting?
Answer: In my professional opinion, 2 hours per day on the phone prospecting and following up and in 12-18 months you will have your highest income ever on a residual basis. Use our VIP Activity Report to track your activity and progress.

Cost:
The actual cost of Cable TV or Satellite TV is based on many factors. Where you live, which package you buy, which options you select. However, it is very common for people to spend $100 per month for cable or satellite TV. Many spend more than $100 per month, and yes some spend less.
So, if you’ve not yet sponsored 5 members or partner-members to become membership-free (aka: Team Leader), then canceling your cable or satellite TV would either cover your Incruises’ membership every month, or at least greatly offset the cost.
IF you still wish to have some FREE TV, like for the news or weather, you still have options:
1. MOST IMPORTANT FOR YOU – is for you to GUARD your time. To do this, use our VIP Activity Tracker – and discipline yourself to watching ZERO TV or Movies until AFTER you have met your minimum daily goals for calls and personal development and not during prime calling times.
2. A digital antenna – these cost as little as $12 one-time and most people can view dozens of channels for free over the air waves.
3. Free streaming via your internet connection – there are too many to list all of them here. Some of the paid streaming tv or movies are as low as $5 per month.
