Empire Builder Pro is the platform designed by the Network Marketing industry’s Top Recruiter to empower you with the most effective third party tools that will help you become a top recruiter in your business. Shareable Recruiting Assets: You can send your prospects a trackable digital copy of Brian Carruthers’ book Making My First Ten Million, which has become one of the most popular and effective interest-picquing tools to ever hit network marketing. Your prospect reads this short digi-book in 10-15 minutes, and now they are primed to hear about your business opportunity. If you have not reached your prospect back in your follow up, the app will send them a series of autoresponder emails to keep them primed until you connect. There are three other powerful videos designed to generate interest in starting a business of their own - “Why Become an Entrepreneur”, “Part Time”, and “Tax Advantages of a Home-Based Business”. These can be used in the initial approach, or as a follow up method to help sell your prospects on WHY they NEED to start a business like yours. Shareable Assets for your team: So you have some team members thinking about quitting, or maybe they’ve already disappeared, and you need someone to talk some sense into them. What if you could send them a “Thinking of Quitting” video from best-selling author, 8-Figure Earner Brian Carruthers, who shares how he almost quit and how he decided to get back in the game and how that has turned out to be the best decision of his life? This video will help you keep your team members in the business and motivated to keep building their empires. You will also have an entire library of social media content (sample posts) that you can copy and share, making your prospecting efforts on social media more effective and turnkey. Training Content: Brian Carruthers gives you free access to some of his most popular training programs (which normally retails for $97 each). You will also get his Money Mindset audio program which will teach you how to get ahead financially by saving you money, reducing taxes, and steering you towards sound investing strategies and philosophies. Tax Deductr Software: You can use this revolutionary program to make tracking the dollars you spend more easily so that you maximize your business expenses to write off. This will eliminate tax-time stress, and take the guesswork out of the tax equation. Monthly Podcast with Brian Carruthers: What would it be worth to you to have one of the industry’s top all-time builders share his teachings, inspiration and ideas with you every month? These monthly podcasts will always bring you the freshest, cutting edge ideas… while building you a bank of content you can often reference to continue your development. EBPro will be a platform you will use daily to help turbocharge your prospecting, your recruiting, and your personal development towards becoming a top earner in your network marketing business. You will now have Brian Carruthers as your Foster Mentor with you in the palm of your hand every day on your journey.
