Hello everyone! We’ve just passed our first milestone towards our goal inviting 100,000 new empowr citizens. (Here’s more information on the goal and how you can earn a lot of coins in the process) While we’re picking up momentum, having surpassed the number of invites that came in January already this month, we still have quite a lot of work to do to hit our goal in the next 30 days, as we’re currently just shy of 25,000 newly invited citizens (25% of where we need to be). So where do we go from here?< /p> Starting today and over the coming days we’re set to launch a series of upgrades and new features focused entirely on helping you invite new citizens and help them succeed (by earning 100+ mission points). Specifically, you can expect the following: - Improved Mission Point Visibility
- Hitting your mission goals
- How many months in a row have you hit your mission goal?
- The Mi ssion Wheel is back! And now it’s DAILY!
- Mission Wheel Dream Calculator
- Empowering Success Coaches to help their students become productive
- Next steps for empowr countries
- Cleaning up the community
- So, what’s next?
Let’s get right into the details of each: Improved Mission Point Visibility As we recently announced, it’s now twice as easy for your invitees (and yourself) to earn mission points quickly, as their (and your) sales and purchases are wort h 2 mission points for every $1 bought or sold. In addition to making it easier to earn mission points, we’ve also tweaked the mission point calculations to update more frequently – so that you have constant visibility into how your invitees are doing. Each day everyone be credited mission points based on their efforts from the previous day, including the purchase of mission roles. You’ll also soon have visibility into how many coins you’ve earned from each of your invitees when they become productive from the invitee section of your mission points page: Hitting their mission goals By having mission points credited quickly, your invitees can always know how close they are to hitting their monthly goals. How do they know how they’re doing? Based on the color of the ring around their profile photo, your invitees can tell how close they are at hitting their mission goal at any point in time. For example, since this current month is now over 50% complete (February 17th), if their ring isn’t orange, light blue or green – they’re less than 50% of the way to their mission goal and now need to work to catch up before the end of the month.
How many months in a row have they hit their mission goal? Beginning March 1st, if they’ve hit their goal for the previous month, they’ll see the number of months in a row they’ve hit their goals directly above the arrow on their profile photo. For example, look at the “3” above the arrow in the image, below. That means that Ashok hit his mission goal 3 months in a row: By hitting their mission goals multiple months in a row, your invitees (and yourself) begin to receive a wide range of benefits – such as lowering maturation all the way down to 0 days (meaning they’ll be able to transfer their empowr coins to external wallets where they can hold or even sell them, if they like) so they should be sure to finish up the month strong so that they hit your goal! Good luck! Note: If you’ve noticed your mission performance ring increase or decrease in the past 24 hours, that is because you either purchased your last mission role in January (and have retroactively received full credit for that month), or in February (and have now received full credit for this month). Let me know if any of this is unclear, using the comments below, and I’ll provide more details. The Mission Wheel is back! And now it’s DAILY! As promised, the Mission Wheel will be making its return in the next day or couple days (just waiting on engineering) – fully revamped for empowr coins and ready to give out TONS (millions) of empowr coins to everyone that hits their Daily Goal. And guess what? Now, your invitees (and you) will ALWAYS see the mission wheel EACH AND EVERY time they hit their Daily Goal! The Mission Wheel will now become THE MAIN WAY with which empowr spends its coins and distributes them to the community. Mission Wheel Dream Calculator In addition to the revamped Mission Wheel, they’ll also notice a fun, new way to se e what they can do to increase their prizes on the wheel. To do that, simply click the link “See how your prizes grow”… … to be taken to the new Mission Wheel “dream calculator”: By adjusting the sliders on the “dream calculator” above, you and your invitees will see exactly how large prizes can get by taking very specific actions. Prizes grow by: -
Growing the number of mission points they’ve earned in the past 30 days -
Advancing their mission role With the return of the mission wheel any moment now, we’re looking forward to seeing all the new winners each day. Empowering Success Coaches to help their students become productive As you know, Success Coaches are the best resource for any new empowr citizen to succeed. Soon they’ll be even more empowered, by having the ability to schedule 1-to-1 video chats with their students – with a focus on helping them earn their first 100 mission points. As each new citizen joins empowr, they’ll be prompted with a calendar of their Success Coach’s availability: From there, students simply need to enter their contact information and they’ll be notified via email how to contact their success coach via Skype or Google Hangouts at their scheduled time. Want to schedule a call with your Success Coach? You can do so from the “Ask me” page at any time beginning next week. Note: This scheduler is intended for new citizens to get started - everyone else can still contact their Success Coach via their inbox. Success Coaches are all about helping your invitees succeed As a reminder, Success Coaches are now heavily compensated based on how successful their students are (meaning how many of them are earning 100+ mission points each month), and they are just as focused as all of you on helping your invitees succeed. You can view which coaches are doing the best job to help their students get productive by visiting the Success Coach Leaderboard and clicking on the “Student Success” column: Next steps for empowr countries In addition to the help that Success Coaches bring to help your invitees succeed, the founders of empowr countries are also highly motivated to ensure every citizen in their country succeeds. Why? Because the countries with the highest average 30-day mission points per citizen will receive the most coins to distribute to their citizens – meaning that the countries with the most productive citizens will be the ones earning the most coins every month. Here is the roadmap for finally launching empowr countries: February 17th: Starting today, country founders can now update the information that describes what their country is all about: (1) What's your country's purpose or mission? (2) What are the shared beliefs and core values? (3) Why should people join your country? To do that, simply visit your “Communities I Admin” tab on the Communities page and click “Edit Information” under your country name. If you haven’t already put your best effort into explaining why other empowr citizens should join your country, now is your chance to do so. February 20th: After giving country founders a couple days to update the information about their country, every empowr citizen should take the time to decide which country they wish to be a citizen of. You can only be a citizen of 1 country at a time, so once you’ve selected the country that best fits your needs, you’ll need to remove yourself from any additional countries you are in – by clicking the “You’re a citizen” b utton next to the country you no longer wish to be in. You can see a full list of the countries you are in by visiting the Communities page, choosing “Communities I’m a Fan of” and then filtering by “empowr country”. February 26th: Any citizen that is still in more than 1 country will automatically be assigned to the country they are in that has the highest average 30-day mission points per citizen and removed from the rest of their countries. With all empowr citizens assigned to 1 country (or no country if they wish), each country will then be provided a page that details a wide range of metrics for each of their citizens. This page will be used by the country founders to determine how many coins to distribute to each of their citizens. Feb 28th: The highest performing countries (defined by those with the highest average 30-day mission points per citizen) will have the ability to choose whether they want to compensate their citizens with the mission wheel, or if – going forward (starting on March 1st) they want to distribute coins based on their own approach and values. April 1st and beyond: On the 1st of every month, countries that have chosen to not compensate their citizens with the mission wheel will be granted coins based on how productive their citizens were in the previous month. More details on how countrie s will be able to compensate their citizens will be coming, but for now, just know that you should focus on the following things: · Country founders: Now is the time to update the information about your country to explain why yours is the one they should choose above all of the rest · Country citizens: Now is the time to decide which country you want to be a citizen of and remove yourselves from all other countries. Failure to do so will result in you automatically being assigned to a country on February 26th Cleaning up the community Lastly, as more new empowr citizens join the community and start to succeed, it’s time we made sure they are succeeding in an environment that isn’t filled with spam. Just as frustrating as it must be for many of you, you can only imagine how new citizens must be turned off when they encounter profiles filled with affiliate or multi-level marketing, scam or get-rich-quick scheme offers. With you r help, we can clean up this mess in a very simple way. Here’s how: a) Once you’ve reached a certain number of mission points (proving your experience to the community), you’ll notice a “report” link at the top of every profile b) When you come across a profile that violates our terms of service and/or looks overly promotional with online money-making posts (like the one shown below), simply click “report” and empowr will be alerted of the profile to take any necessary action to remove it So what’s next? While the above items are sure to help us move faster towards accomplishing our goal, we’re certain that there’s a lot more all of us can do to improve empowr. What other ideas do you have? Should we adjust the timing of the March 15th invitations goal to give us a better shot at success? If so, what do you suggest? We look forward to hearing your thoughts – and as always we are here to help in any way we can. Your president, Brian P.S. If you haven’t visited the Central Collaboration Hub (CCH) in a while, be sure to do so as there are some great approaches, tools and knowledge being shared by those that are successfully inviting others and helping them succeed.
