Hey everyone,
We are creating the first flat rate barter system for Charlotte NC. Don't miss out. There are so many things that we are going to be different on than all the other barter companies. Before you join one be sure to contact us first in order to see how we are different.
Next Generation Barter
Top 10 Reasons to join Next Generation Barter:
1. INCREASE SALES … Next Generation Barter will promote your company through our network and affiliates. You’ll reach new customers with our sales force. Our members choose to patronize other members, instead of paying cash outside of the network.
2. CONSERVE CASH … Reduce cash costs by paying for them with revenue generated by new barter sales. When you purchase something using Next Generation Barter, it will be paid for with new sales . . . new sales that would not have happened without us!
3. INCREASE EFFICIENCY … Fill idle time and sell excess inventory. Our trade brokers match you with businesses and individuals looking for your goods and services and, in return, you’ll have access to goods and services locally and worldwide!
4. BARTER SALES LEAD TO CASH SALES … Do a good job, and you will be referred to cash-paying affiliates, friends and family. Growing your company will be linked to referrals from your satisfied customers!
5. WHOLESALE BUYING POWER … Using barter, the real cost of the products and services is the wholesale cost of your trade dollars earned. Making sales with built-in profits makes the expense of your purchases more economical on trade!
6. NO BAD DEBTS … We remove the hassle of billing and collections. Call us or use our on-line authorization system to get approval before providing the goods or services.
7. EASY ACCOUNTING … Next Generation Barter works like a bank, providing control, keeping records, and supporting an administration for your barter activities. You need not keep track of the dollars traded. Next Generation Barter provides you with an easy-to-read detailed monthly statement. We make it simple for you!
8. NO INTEREST CREDIT LINE … Apply for a no-interest barter line of credit. We offer your company the chance to buy goods and services at 0% interest!
9. EMPLOYEE INCENTIVES … Offer trade dollars as an employee benefit. You could offer your employees vacations, dental, or optical services, health club memberships, restaurant vouchers and so much more!
10. IMPROVE YOUR LIFESTYLE … Indulge in a more luxurious life-style with the barter you earn. Send your kids to camp, go to the spa, take a limousine for dinner and a show ALL ON BARTER … the opportunities are endless!

Next Generation Barter
You may be asking why we picked our name? It has to do with where we see barter companies going down the road. Our goal is to help it get there because it is the right thing to do. We are the next generation of barter company owners.
You may be also asking how are we different? Well it has all to do with our fee structure. Most barter companies have an enrollment fee that is usually between $295-$495. They also have a transaction fee that is between 6-7% on EACH transaction so for every barter dollar that comes in you have pay 12-14%. They also have a monthly fee that is usually around $20 a month cash and barter. The some even have an annual fee of around $100.
I (Chris) have been around the barter industry for around 15 years. I have seen so much and have come to realize that a barter company can run without all those extra fees. They tell you it has to do with maintenance of the accounts and everything. It used to be back when barter first launched because you had to do everything by hand but now most things are automated. So that means it is more cost effective to run a barter company than ever before.
Next Generation Barter
Here is where we come in. We have only two fees and that’s it. It will be an enrollment fee and a small monthly fee. That’s it!!! It doesn’t matter how much you barter. We are still going over the numbers but we almost have the fees down. When we fully launch we will let you all know. Also if you would like more info on this then contact us. Imagine unlimited trades for one flat rate? I don’t know of many companies doing that but not only do we feel this is the right direction but this is the right thing to do.
By just trading back and forth of products and services of only $200, you already save with us on the fees! If you aren’t willing to trade back and forth at least $200 then you probably shouldn’t be a part of a barter company anyway.
The goal is to help bring you between $3000-6000 in new business per year or more. Our company will be focusing on the Southeast right now with Charlotte, NC being the first place we focus.
It is August 7th right now, we will be launching in the next 2-4 weeks. We just wanted to let everyone know how we are going to be different and get the ball rolling.
We look forward to help you bring in more business.

We are in the process of launching a marriage challenge that will be based on God’s ways. We feel that no matter where you marriage is at this point, this will help you go to the next level.
Our challenge will be partly based on what we have done plus a few more things added because my wife and I want to take our marriage to the next level too so we will be doing everything that’s on here.
We know that there are many marriages that are just existing but not thriving. We feel that you can change the direction of any marriage in only 90 days. Anyone can do anything for 90 days.
90 Day Marriage Challenge
If after 90 days you feel nothing has changed for your marriage then just go back to what you were doing BUT we know in that time with God’s help and our challenge, you can have the marriage you always dreamed of.
Of course this is 100% free and only between you, God and your spouse. But we would like to see some testimonies from you who take our challenge and this helps so that we can post them on the site.

Our Mission is to build stronger families in Christ one marriage at a time. My wife and I feel that our purpose and calling is to help marriages grow to the next level so we are taking our first step with this.
Chris & Sandy

The Yoli Products
Finally someone has done it right - a nutritional drink that really has in it what the label says. Yoli is bringing the TRUTH to the functional beverage industry and to network marketing. Interestingly enough that is the name of their first product, which is an extremely tasty citrus health blast. It's packed with a great mix of antioxidants and other nutrients including the patented Alka-Plex formula, white tea extract, resveratrol, acai, gogi, pomegranate, and more.
 |
 |
A GREAT TASTING and revolutionary nutritional beverage. |
 |
Patented Blast Cap Technology that locks in the nutritional value! |
 |
All Natural and High in Antioxidants! |
 |
NO Harmful Preservatives, NO Sugar, NO Artificial Sweeteners |
 |
High pH - Healthy Alkalinity! |
 |
Low Glycemic Index |
 |
Affordable! Yoli beverages have a price point that competes with retail beverages! |
|
Yoli owns the patent on the Blast Technology! It's the first new and unique technology I've seen in network marketing in the last 20 years! This BlastCap technology is going to rock the functional beverage market. Yoli is able to preserve nutrients and flavor that other companies kill in processing!
Yoli's mission is to educate the public and unveil all the hidden stuff in this industry - hot filling and pasteurizing that kill nutrients, SUGAR - the #1 cause of the obesity epidemic in America, artificial sweeteners that are toxic, preservatives that are harmful if swallowed, artificial colors and flavors, fillers and binders, and more. You're not going to find any of this JUNK in the great tasting Yoli beverages!
|
Yoli is producing delicious and healthy beverages that will change the industry and help people by promoting a better alternative to the nutrient degraded products that are prevalent in the beverage industry today. Not only are Yoli products filled with nutritional value, but it's going to encourage people to drink more water, which is always a good thing. Yoli's water source is rated the best in the USA and has a pH of 7.7.
|
 |
The BlastCap Technology not only preserves the nutrients, but makes the Yoli products tremendously demonstrable and FUN. Imagine going to the health club and blasting a Yoli drink in front of other people. They've never seen anything like it and are going to want to know more. Or what if your child or grandchild took a Yoli drink to a sporting event and blasted it in front of all their friends. Every kid is going to want one, because it's cool. Plus, the parents are going to love the Yoli drinks because they are good for the children. How about a health and wellness fair - blasting Yoli drinks in front of attendees and then giving them a bottle. That would be the most popular booth at the fair!
Yoli is also an extremely environmentally aware and environmentally friendly company! They care! The bottles are made of a special plastic to be dishwasher safe for reuse. This is why the blast caps are also sold without bottles! Plus, they have a plant a tree program and much more! So, on top of everything else, Yoli is GREEN!
The #1 Yoli Team
Yoli has a compensation plan for people who wish to share this product with others and earn an income. It is a revolutionary and lucrative plan that caters to experienced and novice network marketers alike. Before going into more details regarding the compensation, it is important to note that team selection is vital to your success in any business. It's a partnership.

 |
NO PRESSURE! Creating a sense of urgency is a proven tactic to get people to join. Great for some, but not for us! We'd rather provide information and allow the prospect to make an informed decision. Don't we all dislike pushy salespeople anyway? We believe our team, the product and Yoli compensation speak for itself, so we do not pressure people into decisions! |
 |

Create a Yoli Income
Thank you for taking the time to consider starting your own Yoli business. It's a big step and anyone with the drive to create an income online, whether full-time or part-time, should be congratulated. We hope to be able to gain your trust in our team and help you achieve your goals in a very realistic way. If you have not done so, please take a minute to review our team philosophy.
To be successful in your own home network marketing business, the product must have a true retail market whether it's a pet food or a nutritional beverage.
Let's take a minute here to emphasize this need for a true retail market. A network marketing company cannot sustain income for its members if EVERYONE is a distributor. That's common sense. Everyone cannot earn money. The "have nots" will significantly outweigh the income earners and in traditional network marketing companies 97% WILL FAIL to earn enough to pay for their own product. That's 97 out of 100 people in a network marketing business failing to earn enough to even cover the cost of their own product.
This is not meant to discourage you, but this is what is prevalent in online networking businesses and why so many people fail. Products simply do not have mass appeal. This is NOT the way it should be, but most companies are built on income hype, turnover is extremely high, and only few people in the company benefit. It is with pride that we are happy to say that Yoli has a true retail product and business model to give back to its distributors.
Yoli has rolled out a revolutionary unilevel/binary hybrid pay plan. Sounds confusing, but it's really quite simple once you understand and our team has special training to help you with this. What is important to note is that Yoli founders have "leveled the playing field." The features of the Yoli plan are going to attract many networkers (new and experienced) and take this company to a whole new level.
Yoli has added a Break Even bonus that will enable distributors to quickly cover their autoship and dramatically increase distributor retention! Remember that 97% statistic above, DOES NOT APPLY HERE! This solves a HUGE problem that has existed in network marketing since its inception! Check out the compensation video in the video section near the bottom of the following web site: (Coming Soon)
Yoli has also rolled out five times as many ranks as the average network marketing company, which means that distributors are going to get recognized early and often. Sometimes it's the recognition that keeps people going long enough to make money and stay in the game. This is the first compensation plan that is totally fair to the average person and yet lucrative enough to attract people who want to be leaders and earn significant income working with Yoli.
Leadership is vitally important in any business and the Yoli founders are doing everything right! They have not cut a single corner or spared any expense. These guys have been successful distributors and business people. I've been with network marketing companies that were started by corporate guys who had never been distributors or one man hacks! Frankly, they made decisions that destroyed my business and that of others like me. Robby, Daren and other leaders of this company know what it is like to be out in the field as a distributor and they are and will continue to make decisions that are good for the distributors and the customers.
Yoli is the brainchild of some of the very best minds in the world of network marketing including: Corey Citron, Daren Falter, Robby Fender. It's a company that is changing the face of the nutritional beverage and network marketing industries.
There's plenty of time to get involved early, so don't feel rushed into a decision. However, if you see the opportunity that we have here and you're serious about getting an early jump on what will become a network marketing giant, I encourage you to consider locking your position now for premium placement. Contact us and I'll tell you how to get in now and reserve ideal placement!
Look forward to working with you to reach your goals and supporting you in your business! Please feel free to contact me with any questions.

What makes a strong marriage?
I wanted to post this since I know so many marriages are hurting. My intention of this post is to show you from our perspective NOT to sound like we are bragging or saying we are perfect because we aren't.
We were told by so many people that we would never last because of how we met and how fast we made decisions but here we are married for 8 years this coming Oct 05.
We met on a singles Christian website on 02/02/02. We talked on the phone on 02/04/02 for the first time. We set a wedding date on 02/18/02 and met in person for the first time on 03/04/02. Now was this crazy fast? Of course but we just knew and many people told us how crazy we are. Believe me we understand why they said that especially with how most marriages are today.
One of the reasons we feel that our marriage is strong today is communication. We have always had communication because at the beginning that is all we had. She lived in KY and I lived in GA so the only communication we had was the phone. We spent maybe 20 days total together before we married but we talked for 4-5 hours every day on the phone so there was almost nothing we didn't know about each other by the time we married on Oct 5th of that year.
To this day we stay communicated. We know communication is one of the glues that holds us together. Without good communication relationships fall apart.
Second, we always keep God first in our relationship. Nothing comes before God. We have to have that spiritual guidance in our relationship or we will not stay strong.
Third, we always make decisions together. I never have to worry about wondering what decision my wife is going to make without me. She also doens't have to worry about that. We have seen so many couples fall apart because of some of the decisions that one spouse makes without the others knowlege. Well to us that is wrong. In God's eyes we are supposed to become one so we also make decisions as one.
Fourth, we still have fun together. We are goofy together. We laugh a lot together. Laughter is one of the greatest things you can have in your marriage. We also still have date night. It is every Friday sometimes we do move it to Saturday when we need to but we always have 1 day for that. We have to keep that spark alive. If you don't then the spark will get washed out with life.
Fifth, we remember and do the small things. It is always the small things that mean everything in the relationship. I still open the car doors for her 8 years later! Most of her friends told her to give me 6 months and I will quit on that. Because I treat her with the respect she deserves, I have never went without sex when I wanted? Yes I said that! Sex is great in a marriage especially when both parties want it because of the love you two share. There is nothing like that.
Sixth, A lot of people may disagree with this one but here goes, we don't go clubbing or anywhere that is usually a place for singles. We have seen so many people say I have to have my night out with the girls and nothing wrong with that BUT it is always at a club, why is that? We aren't sure why but it happens alot. They say that is their time to unload. BUT why a club where so much can happen? Like to dance then find a better place. You don't have to agree with us but this is from our perspective and how we stay strong.
Seventh, we NEVER take any marriage problems outside of the marriage. We see a lot of people do this especially with the opposite sex. They get guidance with the opposite sex and it is not a trained professional or their spouse. Feelings will always arise and things tend to happen once you cross that line. Keep your marriage problems between you two and God and if you need help then find a pastor or someone like that who can help guide you two in the right direction.
Of course there are more things than this but this gives you a basic idea of what we do. We hope this helps. We aren't asking you to become us, we are just showing you why we stay strong in tough times.
Living Our Story,

P.S. We don't chat with all these people online. When we do chat we are 100% together and it is usually short. Chatting is another situation that can get you in a lot of trouble!
How do you look at failure?
When I say the word failure, what do you think? You probably think of someone who never done anything with their life? Maybe you thought of yourself, thinking from the past? Maybe you think defeat? In reality, none of them are actually true. The only way to be 100% a failure is if you give up totally on your dreams.
When I think of failure, I think of a stepping stone to success. You may be asking how is that? No matter what you attempt in life, you will always fail before you succeed. Think back from your past, When you first tried to ride a bicycle, did you just jump up on the bike and ride away? Probably not, more than likely, you got on and fell to the ground. Then got back on and fell to the ground again. Then again, and again until you eventually got the hang of it.
When you think of Babe Ruth, you probably think of someone who had the most home runs for many years, did you realize that he also had the most strikeouts? Probably not. There are many successful people out there who failed many times before they were a success. In fact I would be willing to bet that 95% or higher of the successful people failed many times before they made it. I read a survey that showed a lot of multi-millionaires went bankrupt several times before they became a millionaire.
When I look at my past, I definitely failed more times than I have succeeded. My wife and I are building several businesses now that are growing but before this we ran a local newspaper that failed. I also did a lot of things in my past where I failed but never gave up.
Failure is the foundation of Success. If you can say that I have never failed, then I can also say you haven't accomplished much. The bigger the success of a person, the more they have failed. All I am trying to do here is help you realize that failure is a part of life and if you learn from your failures then in reality it isn't a failure at all.
Here is a poem that I found about failure. I have no idea who wrote it but it is a great one!
FAILURE DOESN'T MEAN YOU'RE A FAILURE
Failure doesn't mean you're a failure, it does mean you haven't succeeded yet.
Failure doesn't mean you haven't accomplished something, it does mean you have learned something.
Failure doesn't mean you've been a fool, it does mean you have a lot of faith.
Failure doesn't mean you've been disgraced, it does mean you were willing to try.
Failure doesn't mean you don't have it, it does mean you have to do something in a different way.
Failure doesn't mean you're inferior, it does mean you're not perfect.
Failure doesn't mean you've wasted your time, it does mean you have a reason to start fresh.
Failure doesn't mean you should give up, it does mean you should try harder.
Failure doesn't mean you'll never make it, it does mean it will take a little longer.
Failure doesn't mean God has abandoned you, it does mean he has a better way.

Our Mission in Life?
February 6, 2010 by http://www.livingourstory.com
It is 5:41 AM and right now I can't sleep. I have been just thinking what is my mission in life? We all have a mission. I really feel that this blog is a part of our mission as a married couple together. There are several points to that.
First, our story on how we met has always touched peoples lives. We truly feel God brought us together in such a crazy way to show people not to always think in the box. Do we encourage people to meet online? Heck NO! This was how God used us. He may want to use you in a different way.
Second, we all know that no matter what our story counts. We are all creating our story as we speak. We want to be able to help people realize that no matter who you are, you have a story. Maybe to some people your story isn't much but it is your story! Stories touch peoples lives. Just think about all the songs that touch you? Don't they all tell a story? How about the movies that touch you? Don't they tell a story too?
Third, we also feel that if you are married you should find a mission together. Here is the part that some of you will say "whoa, I am not sure if I agree". Remember you don't have to agree with everything we say but this is from our view and how we feel.
Think about it, we are suppose to become one in Christ right? Well how do we become one if we are living separate lives? We can't and we won't. I am not saying you can't have different passions in life. What I am saying is that if God led you together then maybe, just maybe he has a mission for you as a married couple too.
You have no idea how close having a mission together brings you. I love my wife today more than the day I married her over 7 years ago. How many people in this day and time can say that? I wish more could say that. We have done so much together and finding ways to be in business together has been one of the greatest blessings in our lives. I can't imagine living my mission without her. She is the joy that I look to each day. I hope and pray that you find the love that we share. When you do, you will know it can only come from God.
Our goal is to show people a different way of thinking with our life. If people read our blog and they say to themselves "I never thought of it like that" then we did our job. We don't want to make you become us, just think a little different sometimes.
Living our story,
Chris Benton
