www.elitesynergyteam.com – our official SMG MAC 4.0 business website, all P1D business owners use this same site.  The MAC 4.0 system information tour is proven, tested, researched and most importantly DUPLICATABLE.  The concept of duplication of results is very important; we want to create successful teams!

www.elitesynergyteam.info- our official SMG MAC 4.0 movie introduction website

www.synergy-platinum-one-blog.com- the personal blog of Jani Teeter and Pierre Trudeau, founders of the Elite Synergy Team.  Want a snapshot of our daily lives, and some of our personal experiences and viewpoints?  This is the place to go!

www.p1dfaq.com- the official Platinum One Destinations and Synergy Marketing Group “frequently asked questions” website.  This is a GREAT place to go to get your questions answered!

www.p1dleadstore.com- another great tool brought to SMG members marketing Platinum One Destinations and NetTrav!  You never need to talk to friends or family, or figure out how to market yourself in the very competitive and complex world of advertising if you don’t want to!  The Synergy Marketing Group has partnered with professional advertising campaigns, and you can pre-purchase advertising, without huge development costs and time investment!  You can also “turn off” your advertising when you go on vacation, and ask to speak to as many a people as works with YOUR schedule on a daily basis.  There is nothing like having that kind of control over your time!  Its no secret- without people to talk to and show your product or opportunity to- you won’t have any sales!  Again, this is optional- but HIGHLY recommended!  There are also abundant alternate sources for advertising, including our exclusive Elite Synergy Team pre-screened and interviewed leads.  We have many different ideas, tools and resources to support all business goals and budgets.

www.smgmarketplace.com- great tools produced for Platinum One Destinations business owners by the Synergy Marketing Group.  Again, optional- but great when you have specific needs and goals in your business to have the tools right there, all ready to go!

Valuable Resources for Working from Home

www.flylady.net- Jani swears by this as single stay at home full time mom to a 2 year old running a very successful home based business.  Are you living in CHAOS (can’t have anyone over syndrome)??  If so, the superb flylady (Maria Cilley) will be a positive, inspirational real help to get your home in clutter free, comfortable state without cleaning constantly, or waiting until the mess drives you over the edge of sanity before you drop everything and go nuts cleaning.  Stop the cycle; regain control and piece of mind.  Your home is your castle, especially when you are home full time!  Best of all, this is FREE!

www.savingdinner.com Brought to you by flylady’s friend, Leanne Elroy.  Leanne is a certified dietician, and puts together a variety of healthy, easy to prepare, absolutely YUMMY meal plans- complete with recipes and shopping lists.  You do NOT need to order pizza or bring home take out routinely anymore!  Free sample weekly menus are right here on the site, as well as favourite recipes.  If you are just starting your home based enterprise, and still working full time- you can still have healthy, delicious sit down meals with your family.  You started your business; in part because you wanted less stress and MORE TIME- take small steps towards making your dreams a reality by saving dinner and FLY’ing through your house chores!

www.vistaprint.com- great business cards, reasonably priced

www.avery.com- design your own business cards; print them yourself on Avery business card stock.  Free templates to create professional looking marketing materials, customized for your business!

www.godaddy.com- the very FIRST thing you should do when starting your internet based home based business is go and get your own domain name.  That is fancy terminology for an internet address that starts with “www.” and ends with “.com”.  I HIGHLY recommend picking one up that is your NAME (www.firstnamelastname.com) and also one that will represent your business.  Try to keep it short, easy to spell and remember and to the point of what your business is or represents.  Yes, your SMG MAC system comes with websites- but it is so much easier to tell your prospective clients to visit your “www.       .com” website, and looks so much more professional in your email signatures and on business cards.  Best of all, a domain can be registered for about $10/year.  Money well spent, in our humble opinion!

www.greatday.com- sit down at your desk in the morning with your hot cup of coffee- and before even checking your emails get a daily dose of inspiration from The Daily Motivator!

www.whatisthesecret.tv- You don’t know the SECRET?  Oprah can’t say enough about it!  Enough said- watch the full feature length film right on your computer. 

www.whatthebleep.com- Already know and love “The Secret”.  This is the advanced version- and delves deeper into the science and research behind the LOA.  You really do need to watch The Secret first though!

www.entrepreneur.com- the ultimate resource for all topics about being self employed!  If you want to run a professional, creditable home based business, there are many great resources to learn from here!

http://www.emofree.com/newcomer.htm#What- Are you holding yourself back from finding true success and prosperity in your life because of emotional barriers?  Money (or lack thereof) is always a RESULT- if you haven’t had enough of it in your past, something needs to change- and more often then not- that “something” is the thoughts and actions YOU take!  Your business will only grow as much as YOU do- so free yourself from negativity and self limitation.  The Emotional Freedom Technique is simple, sensible, drug free and painless.  The beginner course is also free!

www.everythingpreschool.com- working at home with little ones underfoot?  Here is a great free resource- keep them busy with colouring, fun crafts, and great games while you get some work done!

http://www.electronicsforless.ca/electronics/itemDetails/101/item/tech- looking for a really GOOD cordless phone?  Its invaluable for multitasking- listen to training calls or take unscheduled calls from your team or prospects while around the house.  Do your laundry, empty the dishwasher, cook dinner and never miss a beat.  Jani swears by Panasonic phones for durability, quality and features.  You will want to look for a phone with the following features:  speakerphone, headset jack, mute button, flash button, digital (DECT) technology.  If you have a busy household a background noise reduction feature is lifesaving!  Pair this with a quality cordless headset, and you will be on the move in comfort, and no one ever needs to know you are working from home!

http://www.yourmobiledesk.com/products/proddetail.cfm?prodID=3374&catID=75&subcatID=731&sscatID=na&mfrID=159- the ULTIMATE work at home luxury- being able to enjoy cold lemonade on your sunny deck during the long summer days in August!  Jani adores having her cordless phone and wireless laptop and lounging in her hammock, working away while her daughter plays in the paddling pool and runs around the yard.  This marvelous little gadget makes it possible to actually SEE your laptop screen in the full sun!  Pair it with a long lasting laptop battery, and you are good to go ALL DAY!

www.vonage.com Pierre and Jani LOVE having flat rate, unrestricted long distance across North America.  Also includes call display, voicemail that can be delivered to your MAC System business centre email inbox, call forwarding (for your cellphone), call waiting and the ability to have a “virtual number” in another area code, comes in handy while traveling!  All for a predictable, low monthly rate!

http://www.intuit.ca/accounting-software/index.jsp- accounting software is invaluable.  This is what we use (you will need to find an alternate resource if you are not Canadian).  We find it fast, user friendly and most importantly SIMPLE!
