Yep -- that's my 'Mission Statement'. And I hope that after going through the information contained on these pages, you'll be able to get a pretty good idea of who I am, what I'm all about, and most importantly, how I can best assist YOU.

As you already know, my name is Lena Bjorna. I'm a full-time internet marketer and top earner in the industry working out of my home here in the beautiful, exciting, crazy, action-packed city of Los Angeles, California, from where I coach a rapidly growing (and very international) team of home business owners/network marketers.

I've been married to my wonderful, supportive husband Samuel for over 11 years now. Sam and his family are from El Salvador, so we definitely have a very colorful and cross-cultural marriage! You never know what to expect for dinner at our house - Salvadorian "Pan con Pavo" or "Pupusas", a Norwegian fish dish, or an all-American barbecue...!

And the holidays? They are usually a "creative" blend of Scandinavian, Central American and North American traditions, and are always certain to be an interesting experience for guests -- regardless of what part of the world they themselves are from!

Other than that I can tell you that I've been a committed Christian for the last 12 years, that I'm a zealous globetrotter, an information junkie, a nature lover, and a slowly recovering over-achiever. ;-)

I'm also the kind of person who never gives up. I truly believe that with God ALL things are possible. Which is why whenever I'm at the end of my rope, I choose to tie a knot and hang on...

I was born and raised in Norway, in a small town called Tromso above the Arctic Circle. Even as a child I was always coming up with creative ways to turn a profit. My mom could for instance tell you about how I would gather rocks and shells from the public beach, put them on display in my parents' living room, and charge family members an entrance fee to access the "exhibition". An entrepreneur in the making, indeed...

And I couldn't wait for the day when I would be old enough to move to the United States...the Land of Opportunity. I'd never been to the US, yet somehow I always knew in my heart that this was where I was going to end up, and where I would make all my dreams come true and discover my life's purpose.

In the mid-90's I moved to California to fulfill my childhood dream of studying acting and working in Hollywood. I graduated from college with a B.A. degree in Theatre in 2000, and spent the next several years working odd jobs in the film industry.

However, my acting career never took off like I had hoped it would: One of the major obstacles I faced was that, since I had entered the country on a student visa, I had been granted only a restricted work permit, and this in turn meant that my employment options were extremely limited. When I finally received my Green Card in 2002, I had already begun to dabble in network marketing.

Little did I know at the time that those years of going through the school of hard knocks -- learning to market and "sell" myself as an actress, networking, auditioning, writing screen plays -- would lay the foundation for a lucrative career as an internet marketer...a marketer specializing in (-what else BUT-) copywriting, personal branding, and video marketing!! God, of course, knew all along...

And after finishing two seasons as a 'regular' on the Emmy award-winning hit TV series “24” -- when my non-speaking role was cut due to changes in the story line -- I knew the time had come for me to step out in faith again. I had always thought that acting was my calling but had recently begun to question if maybe acting in fact was only part of it...

In my great hunger for financial independence I immediately dove into full-time entrepreneurship. A couple of years of trial and error -- and then finally, success -- followed, while I was learning all the ins and outs of marketing. "Warm" marketing, "cold" calling, direct mail, article marketing, pay-per-click, banner advertising, classified ads, blogging, social networking, SEO, video marketing...you name it, I've probably done it. Some of it works like magic. Most of it does not.

To put it simply, the magic is in the Internet and in the leverage that it offers. ALL the big bucks in marketing today are found on the world wide web. Period.

Now, of course, even with this knowledge an aspiring entrepreneur can still easily get lost in all the craziness online...the endless stream of "proven" strategies, "must-have" courses, "life-changing" free e-books, and densely populated social networking communities where a "new and better" opportunity is introduced practically every day. And getting lost online is not a good thing. Because in network marketing -- as in any other type of business -- time is of the essence...

After finally finding my own way to success -- and discovering what I believe to be my true calling -- I am now able to help the new consultants I bring in to my primary opportunity sort through the 'clutter' and focus on those activities that actually produce results, so that they go into profit quickly.

Because thanks to constantly tying those knots and hanging on, thanks to the thousands of dollars I've spent on books, courses, seminars and conferences, the tens of thousands spent trying and testing various marketing strategies (not all of it wisely I have to admit), the hours and hours spent in front of my computer screen -- thanks to all that, I now actually have something to offer the market. Something that can help others who are struggling to take their businesses to the next level.

"I want to thank you that your website portrays exactly who you are, and I want to thank you for being "real", and for speaking the truth in your online presence."

Lena, I spent 2 months of surfing the web, researching day after day, reading hundreds of websites looking for the "perfect" opportunity. I remember feeling helpless, frustrated and hopeless, broke and defeated.

Then one day I stumbled upon your website. While reading your story I thought, this is someone who seems to be truthful, humble, honest, loyal and definitely determined. I vividly remember that day. No more hype, no more reading you can "make a million tomorrow" websites.

That was only 3 months ago and my life is different, my life is exactly what I've always imagined. Because of that magical day I want to thank you that your website portrayed exactly who you are, and I want to thank you for being "real", and for speaking the truth in your online presence.

I want to thank you for: all that you do, all that you share, all that you care, who you are (your genuine soul is a breath of fresh air)...helping others even though they are not on your team...being patient even when I want to talk more than listen (you are a true leader in every sense of the word)...your constructive criticism; it's the compassion within the criticism that helps one grow...being a friend and a shining light not only in my world but a light in the world -- you are a woman of honor.

The list could go on...but most of all I thank God for you and I thank you for being you and staying true to your values, morals, ethics and faith.

How To Choose The RIGHT Business Opportunity

1. Find a mentor who shares your values and who you feel you resonate with. This is so key! This is a life-long relationship you are looking at... Don't get stuck with the wrong person!

2. Find a marketing system that works. Tragically, far too many network marketing systems today are completely broken. If it is an effective system, and if you work it properly, you should be able to start seeing significant money coming back into your pockets within weeks or at most a few months, not years.

3. With the right opportunity, you should be in an income-earning position from day one, and should not have to be passing up any sales as part of a qualification process.

4. If the company's primary business-building "methods" are the recruiting of friends and family members, or the purchasing of expensive "opportunity" leads, be aware. This is a big red flag. You will almost certainly find yourself running out of relatives and/or funds for leads long before you see any real growth in your business.

5. Instead of Multi-Level-Marketing, choose a direct sales company. By and large, in MLM the attrition rate is far too high and the commissions much too small. Which will only leave you with the frustrated feeling of "trying to fill a leaking bucket."

6. Make sure that what is being marketed are "stand-alone" products, that is, that they would sell themselves were they sitting on a shelf in a store, and aren't just there to make the compensation plan "legitimate".

If you yourself wouldn't be willing to pay at least twice the price for the products of what you are selling them for, they are not the right products.

7. Find something you love to do. Your business should not simply be "a means to an end" -- something you have to suffer through in order to reach your financial goals. The right business should make you jump out of bed in the morning, ready and excited to get to work!

8. Make sure the company and its leaders have a vision which goes beyond the mere material/financial. They should promote and model a "pay-it-forward" mentality. With wealth comes the responsibility of good stewardship, and only a person who knows how to share of himself and give back, knows the meaning of true riches.

"I've never seen another business where someone can plug in to a simple marketing system and generate a full time income within their first 30 to 60 days."

This is the only business model I can whole-heartedly recommend to anyone who wants to earn a significant income from home.

After reviewing every Top Tier business on the market, this is the only one I was willing to put my name on. Their products, mission, and compensation model are simply better than anything else out there which is why I became a Consultant.

There is no doubt in my mind that the Top Tier business model offers the greatest opportunity for financial freedom in this industry.
