5 Year Plan for ISN Announced

Software Upgrade

- Easier team management- A clear ‘tree view’ of network team members- Granular analysis of team results

New Retail lines

With sales of ISN hand-picked coins going from strength to strength, now was felt to be the right time to develop a new range of products to help members

a beautifully crafted diamond signet ring for achieving Executive level, the latter of which will feature a new diamond added every time a new rank is achieved, right up to Prime Executive.

The ISN UK convention that took place in Crewe on the 6th and 7th July was attended by a large number of both existing and recently recruited members. The highly inspirational event led by ISN Founders Matt Barker and Vincent Roy, with major contributions from network leaders Chris Pomelli, James Browne, Ron G Holland and Peter Thompson, marked a turning point for the International Silver Network.

grow their retail sales, both inside and outside of the network. The new range is guaranteed to capture silver and gold coin collector’s imaginations as well as offer a number of products at the lower cost entry level which are designed to help kick start people into the habit of collecting coins on a regular basis.

New recognitions and incentives

The already significant ISN member incentive package will be further enhanced by the addition of exclusive holiday trips to Florida for top performers, an exclusive ISN branded Bulova wrist watch for achieving Platinum level and

“We’re so excited, we just can’t hide it! Over the next five years we will be putting more and more solid infrastructure in place to allow the smooth but rapid expansion of the International Silver Network. We are moving our global operations to ISN’s new Corporate Head Office in beautiful downtown Sarasota, Florida, which is not far from the beautiful Sarasota Bay area that is renowned for its natural wildlife and water sports. We are making substantial investment in both people and IT hardware and software that will put ISN at the forefront of our industry. To help bring this all together, Keith Neirodzinski has been appointed Vice President of Operations and Chris Pomelli has been appointed Director of Operations UK and Europe.Following member feedback, we have created the first round of exciting new incentives to further motivate and reward the network. As the business grows there will be new additions to the incentive program to ensure that the ISN membership is constantly buzzing, driven and focused.We have set a target to attract 50,000 new ISN business Pros into the network over the next five years. We can also confirm that a number our top networkers have already gone one step further than this and set their own goals which are even higher. That could be interesting, to say the least!”

Matt and Vincent outlined their 5 year plan for the business, together with a roadmap showing how it will be delivered:

Here are more details on just a few of the exciting key initiatives that Matt and Vincent announced to the UK convention delegates:

development and watch out for more news on ISN’s international expansion plans.

The Most Powerful Resource

Eureka! – The Modern Silver Rush

I’m very much a people person and ISN is all about people working together and helping each other out in order to achieve goals, much like any family.Human capital is what I really understand best and the funny thing about us humans is that we are all different. Some of us very different – some even diffident as I am sure you would agree!In building a network, whether from a corporate perspective or being an ISN Pro in the field, every day you have to deal with people; their ups and downs, disappointments, misunderstanding as well as their accomplishments and achievements. What is needed is patience and understanding by the bucket load. Careful listening is called for - especially in a network where you have quite literally hundreds of different dialects and cultures to deal with. There are also many other challenges. It is not always easy to recognize leaders and it hasn’t escaped my attention that sometimes leaders only come to the

fore in times of emergency and others come to the fore only when someone else has proved to them that a particular business model is actually working. We all need to learn from this. Many times for example, you will have to help people in your team become Silver or Gold Directors and it’s not until you have taught, trained and proved to them that the model really does work that they miraculously come into their own. Treat this as a valuable lesson because it will happen over and over again within your own team. I know this because so many ISN Pros have told me that they are delighted that they persevered until ultimately they achieved success. Many of them went as far to say that they felt they were “doing all the work” – however, eventually the person they were helping not only sprang into life but actually exceeded all expectations.All of this reminds me of two powerful things that I want to leave you with - adopt the attitude of ‘Whatever It

Takes!’ and you won’t go far wrong.

Also remember that network marketing is the only multi-billion dollar industry, that providing you help others achieve their goals and aspirations, all of your goals and aspirations will automatically fall into place! And that really is the key to network marketing.

The California Gold Rush (1848–1855) brought together over 300,000 people from all over the United States and further abroad. Now, in 2013, in this tough economic climate, individuals across the USA and the rest of the world are striving to create cash flow and find assets that are worth working for to build future wealth and security. We can already see that like the gold rush of the mid-nineteenth century, ISN is creating a Silver Rush all of its own as it offers an unrivalled business opportunity.The International Silver Network (ISN) has a significant advantage over many other multi-level marketing business opportunities because it is asset backed. Every month as your network grows you are not only rewarded with cash

commissions (residual income) but also with valuable silver coins that can be collected and treasured. At ISN we have packaged some of the very best numismatic coins from around the world that are affordable in price, many of which will go on to become valuable collectors’ items. No surprise then that coin collecting has been known as the ‘hobby of kings’ for hundreds of years.Coins and precious metals are currencies that have endured for over 6,000 years. ISN’s ethos is to strive to build a company that provides a genuine and strong asset based business opportunity that will also endure over the long term. To deliver that ambition, we have surrounded ourselves with an incredible team of highly skilled and very able people, many of whom you

will meet via this newsletter and others out in the field. We also have the best possible team of professional advisers and of course the best networking team that you could ever imagine!

Perhaps the X-factor of ISN Coins is the fact that we’ve “Cracked the Code” when it comes to precious metals and home business. There has never been a company so close to the industry, so entrenched in the product of coins and so sold out on the relevance that sits in the intrinsic art we all purchase every month. It takes a delicate balance and dedication to make a company like ISN work and work well. When I began my journey into the world of precious metals it was like a whole new world was opened up to me. Learning the markets, mints, strikes, grades, sets and the list goes on. But I knew that this was definitely something that I was falling in love with. I had discovered a lifelong “Hobby”.After spending almost seven years now in the wonderful world of coins, I’m filled with thankfulness that I now have the ability to earn a life changing income sharing what I’ve discovered with others. There has never been such a great concept in Network Marketing. When people ask me what I do I tell them. I collect world coins and get paid to share that with others. Seriously that sounds like it’s too good to be true and you have no idea how many times I’ve heard that statement.

Honing in on the subject of collectible coins I’d like to point out that ISN didn’t invent the idea. Let it never be said otherwise. Numismatics has been in our world for centuries and the art of coin creation has only got better and more sophisticated with technology. But today we find ourselves in a unique time in history. People now more than ever need more income to survive and are looking for a way to create it, they also are frantically looking for ways to preserve and increase their wealth. ISN has taken these two needs and concerns and merged them into an inexpensive vehicle for wealth creation using the “Collectible Coin” as the vehicle.The Collectible Coin is packed with “Energy”. I think of them as seeds with great potential to grow. At the core of the collectible coin is the “Intrinsic Value”. This comes from the underlying physical metal. Silver and Gold are money and always have been. This is ingrained into the human heart and nobody will deny this. So unlike most businesses that sell you juice, pills or cell phone bills, ISN in a powerful way is causing people to save in Intrinsic VALUE rather than taking your value.

Success in ISN doesn’t begin with a paycheck, it actually begins the moment you join the company and begin your journey into the wonderful world of Collectible Intrinsic Art. You can do nothing but benefit from participating in something that is educational, fun and adds to the list of important categories that can help build your family legacy. Bottom line, we get paid to promote and expand the precious metals industry, while we benefit from one of the most fair and dynamic compensation plans I’ve ever seen, so get involved, get educated, become a professional and enjoy the ride here at ISN Coins!

Keith has been in the networking industry for over 15 years. As a result he has seen what works and what doesn’t work. We are thrilled to have access to his incredibly valuable input on numerous aspects of the business, including websites, products, and compensation plans.

Keith now oversees all facets of the

From web development to inventory control, from overseeing staff to interacting with leaders in the field - we couldn’t ask for a better person to take on the task as part of the ISN Corporate Family! When asked what he sees as the future of ISN and his new role, Keith said: “ISN is already a great company for so many reasons and I look forward to working closely with the owners, the staff and the leaders in the field to expand upon these things. ISN is all about helping people achieve their goals of wealth preservation and financial soundness while coming together as a team with a common cause of feeding hungry children around the world through ISN’s Mission to “Strike out hunger, one coin at a time!” We have incredible owners in Matt and Vince whose focus is on the integrity and longevity of the company. ISN is not a flash in the pan.

We are here for the long haul. I am excited about this new chapter in ISN and intend to work tirelessly toward making ISN the best vehicle for people to achieve their personal and financial goals!”

Collecting gold and silver coins is a popular hobby that attracts more and more collectors every day because it is exciting, fun and hugely rewarding. The numismatic market alone is estimated to be worth over $130bn - that is one vast amount of coins being minted or changing hands across the world each year!Because the market is followed by so many people of all ages and backgrounds, stories hit the press or the Internet when the strange, unusual or amazing happens. Here are just a few great examples that Silver Eagle News wanted to share with you:

• In March of this year, a collector paid a record-setting $86,654 to acquire a Professional Coin Grading Service Proof 70 Deep Cameo 1995-W American Eagle silver dollar. The unnamed collector who purchased the coin had waited years to find a premium example of the key date for the entire Proof American Eagle silver series and was willing to pay what it would take, so quoted the head of the auction company that handled the sale. There are still a large number of highly collectable, rare silver and gold coins regularly being traded around the globe – hear are just a few more examples, together with the amazing auction prices they achieved:

• Flowing Hair Dollar (1794) sold for $10,016,875• Double Eagle (1933) sold for $7,590,020• Brasher Doubloon EB on Breast (1787) sold for $7,400,000• Edward III Florin (1343/4) sold for $6,800,000

• Class I Silver Dollar (1804) sold for $4,140,000• Liberty Head Nickel (1913) sold for $3,737,500• Ultra High Relief $20 (Double Eagle 1907) sold for $2,990,000• Brasher Doubloon EB on Wing (1787) sold for $2,415,000• Class III Silver Dollar (1804) sold for $2,300,000• Rolled Edge Eagle (1907) sold for $2,185,000

• Nelson Bunker Hunt and William Herbert Hunt, the sons of Texas oil billionaire Haroldson Lafayette Hunt, Jr., had the audacious plan of cornering the silver market.

The story goes that in 1979, the price for silver jumped from $6 per troy ounce to a record high of $48.70 per troy ounce - an increase of 712%. The brothers were estimated to hold one third of the entire world supply of silver (other than that held by governments). This made things very difficult for other prospective silver purchasers, so much so that jeweler Tiffany’s took out a full page ad in the New York Times stating “We think it is unconscionable for anyone to hoard several billion, yes billion, dollars-worth of silver and thus drive the price up so high that others must pay artificially high prices for articles made of silver”.

On January 7, 1980, in response to the Hunts’ accumulation, the exchange rules regarding leverage were changed. COMEX adopted “Silver Rule 7” placing heavy restrictions on the purchase of commodities on margin

and as the Hunt brothers had borrowed heavily to finance their silver purchases, when prices began to fall - dropping over 50% in just four days – they were unable to meet their obligations which caused mass panic in the markets.

• The largest silver coin ever produced is the Austrian Thaler which has a whopping 15.5 inch (39.5 cm) diameter. The Thaler was used all over the world as a ‘trade dollar’ and was still in use in parts of the world, notably Africa and the Middle East, after World War II.
