PlanNet Marketing is pleased to welcome Alycia Moore to the 20/20 Club! She shares, “I am Alycia Gardner Moore, a native of Los Angeles, and still residing in Los Angeles County in Southern California. My late parents, natives of Atlanta and Alabama, took the infamous Route 66 migration in the 1950s to pursue small business ownership on the West Coast. Always a bookworm, I curled up in the back seat with Nancy Drew books during the family road trips that ignited my love for travel. I found it fascinating when I married my husband that he not only had a passport, he had an international driver’s license! I obtained my first passport to travel with him to Australia for business. Putting myself through college, I had so often bypassed opportunities for travel to continue working.
“After we became a family of four, we did once-in-a-lifetime trips to London, Paris, Canada, Cozumel, and a perspective-changing trip to Brazil with my buddy Helen Nicholson, who a decade later, I am thrilled to say, sponsored me into this business. (Thanks Helen!) My daughter caught her travel bug in college, arranging another once-in-a-lifetime trip to Thailand with her HBCU classmate, her mom, and me! I never would have dreamed that through the benefits of this business, in just my first two years, I would have traveled back to Paris with my daughter, back to Cozumel with my husband and both kids, and added trips through several more US states, plus Ensenada, St. Barth, Puerto Rico, Belize, the Bahamas, and Cuba!
“Yep, at first, I was all about the travel, tripled our initial investment in my first week just rebooking upcoming hotel stays, started booking our business travel and a few clients. Yet, curious about the marketing business, I left that option open. Team building started rather organically, in spite of everything wrong I was doing – sure I made a list, but I tossed out a text blast so unnatural that a friend called to alert me I must have gotten hacked!!
“Curious, I found myself extending travel to catch a meeting in Atlanta, a same-day turnaround to Women in Black in Texas, Blackout in California, both ITQ conventions, and I began to rank up! Bronze by my first PlanNet Marketing convention, and Silver by the next. I reached Gold Builder during PlanNet’s Third Anniversary event in Anaheim, and have consistently added one business partner each month since, including five during March Madness, qualifying me for Mr. Bradley’s coveted baseball! I hit 20/20 Club during the current 40/40 run, and maintained Gold Plus in time for my third PlanNet Convention!
“While my amazing upline Directors were all over 2000 miles away in Atlanta, they somehow found ways to connect and mentor me as they continued to rise in success, grabbing stars along the way. Thank you to Directors Eileen Ross, Patricia Johnson, and Keith and Dea Montgomery. So grateful for my amazing upline Director Rochelle Montgomery and numerous sideline directors in California who have reached out, embraced, and inspired me, including Tandisizwe Rhone, Sandy Myers, Eric and Dejoire Benson, Robin Loving, and Charles Kindred. I am grateful for the camaraderie and helpful conversations extended by so many other stellar leaders. As a legal consultant, never in my years of corporate life have I found a culture where everyone I have reached out to wants to see me grow and win. I am grateful to Mr. Bradley for providing the vehicle to introduce this opportunity and for those who choose to begin their journey in this business with me. Now, my goal is to pay it forward and help those who reach out to me to grow, to win.
“One of my sideline sisters in success once asked me what was behind my growth in business partners. I shared 3 Ps: Patience, Pipeline, and Posture. I’d like to add one more ‘P’ - Proximity. Whatever your goals are in this business, find someone who is doing it next level and do whatever you can to be in proximity. Stay for that meeting after the meeting. Dial in for that 6 am boot camp. Volunteer to drive visiting leadership around town. Caravan your team to events and introduce them. Make your way to that event with our Founder. The sideline relationships you gain at conventions and meetings can help leverage your reach to guests across the country. Be the one who reaches out to those name-tagged guests in proximity to you – you too are an integral part of the big PlanNet team. Catch those high level leadership nuggets. When they move, you move. What they read, you read. Find and copy the cat that's right for your goals.
“A few fun facts about me are I love to crochet, to oil paint, and every now and then, I get a little check in the mail from a couple of television episodes I was lucky to have acted in back when I was about 8 years old! Yep, I knew a thing or two about residual income! One is when I appeared as a friend of Buffy and Jody named ‘Albertine’ in Family Affair. Learning the basics of chess for that roll to ‘beat Mr. French’ started my love affair with board games - Monopoly is still my favorite!”
