From the BeeKeeper:
Spread the “buzz” around…increase the players in the “Hive”… and earn a “Passive Income” at the same time!
Finding ways to earn a passive income is always a good idea. At Neworld Coaching, we have an amazing referral program called The “Piece of the P.I.” Program. The concept is simple…”Contact the BeeKeeper” (that’s me!) and let me know that you want a “Piece of the P.I.”-if you have not already signed up for this. Then spread the word about the Beehive Game Online or any other product or service that Neworld Coaching offers. It is as easy as that!
Whenever someone new joins the “Hive” they are asked who referred them to this game. If they type in YOUR NAME you will be awarded 10%! But that’s not all…You will be given 10% each and every time that person purchases products or services from either Neworld Coaching or the Beehive Game Online! Our P.I. cheques are mailed quarterly. Sign up for this FREE program today and spread the buzz!
P.S.-you will also receive 2 “Honey Pot” points for each referral that joins the “Hive”
SUCCE$$ in the “Hive”:
(to have your success story printed here, submit it to the BeeKeeper-you will bee awarded 5 “Honey Pot” points!)
I have been meaning to upgrade my ancient blackberry for a while now, but never got around to shopping for the latest gadget. However, I’m not all about having the bells and whistles and I thought “someone out there must have upgraded their blackberry and would be willing to put their old one to good use”.
So I asked for one through the Beehive Game Online. Within the hour of posting my question I had a response! Granted, it is an “older” model compared to today’s standards, but much more advanced than the stone age version I was currently using. It’s amazing what you can get, as long as you are willing to ask for it!-Ron Plasschaert (MPRusso & Associates)

Come out to the “Please Take My Card” event! This unique networking experience is very similar to the Beehive Game in that it is promoting the idea of “giving”. There will be many contacts to be made and will also feature trade booths with exhibitors. Come out and hear Michael Fletcher speak about “Shameless Networking” and how to master this process!
The “Buzz” about one of our players:
Congratulations goes to Zelia Bester of Zelia Bester Studios in Cambridge Ontario! Zelia has absolutely embraced the concept of “giving” and has the most “Honey Pot” points in the game so far! Zelia is an amazing photographer and if you do not know of her work yet…you should. I have had the pleasure to work with Zelia on many occasions and she is in a class all of her own. Visit her website at www.zeliabesterstudios.com and see for yourself! Great job “Z”, and thanks for playing the game at 100%!
BeeKeeper’s Tip:
Follow up:
Your follow up techniques will directly determine your success in this game. Here are some tips to help you.
1 - Fellow Bees cannot see who has posed the questions, so if you receive someone’s business card, you should always reply with an email to them. Perhaps you have already met this person online and you have direct contact with them. It is still good form to click their email link on their business card and reply to let them know who you are and that you appreciate their lead.
This is simply a good way to communicate. The person who thinks they have a lead for you will not be left hanging. Bring each transaction to completion.
2 - Quite often people are very busy and will not always get back to you immediately. Give the person who has promised you a lead a few days to get back to you. After that, contact them again with a friendly reminder that they said they had a lead.
Failing that…contact the BeeKeeper for help. Everyone has promised to play with integrity and if you feel that is not in place, then I need to know!
3 - When contacting the lead you have been given, always be very professional. Explain to the person why you are contacting them and make sure that you find out more about what “they do”. You have a new opportunity to meet a fresh “contact” so make the most of it.
4 - Create a draft (or a similar system) for follow up on your computer. By systemizing the process you will speed things up considerably. Whenever you receive someone’s card to tell you that they have a lead for you, click on their email link on their card and simply copy/paste the draft into the email. Make sure that you also copy/paste the question that they have answered. (located in you’re my Questions section)
5 - Follow up on your leads quickly. If you wait for days and days to respond to a business card that has been sent to you the lead may have gone cold.
6 - Endeavor to check the “Hive” daily and give your leads to people. This game is designed for you to “give” of yourself. The more you give leads to other players, the more leads will come to you! That is a fact.
By systemizing, completing your follow up process and giving of yourself you will greatly increase your chances for SUCCE$$ in this game. Good Luck and “contact the BeeKeeper” if you would like some help. I am always in the “Hive”!
