THE KISS OF DEATH IN NETWORK MARKETING



Every time we have ever seen a company or downline explode and go away, it does so because of the same 2 reasons: GREED and EGO.

True leaders are the Mentors with the servant's heart. It's never about the money. No Money Focus = No Greed. Build people and people will build the business.

People are people. They are not a number. They have goals, dreams & desires. Network marketing is not a sales business. Network marketing is a teaching & mentoring business. So the track record & attitude of leadership is critical.

When you've joined a business and someone calls you, telling you to make a list of your friends & family, I can promise you that they do not have a system. "Friends & family" is what has been puked downline for the last 50 years, and that is the reason for such high failure rates in MLM.

It's Really All About Target Marketing

You've got to find people who will raise their hand, looking for you and/or your product, your service, your opportunity.

Too often, somebody calls you up, pitching you. They don't even know who you are. They don't care who you are. They don't care anything about you.

I've heard certain network marketing leaders say, "It's a relationship business." And many of these people have never built a relationship with anybody. Nobody on their team would want to go on a one-month cruise with them.

Some "Leaders" Don't Even Want To Be Around Their People At Convention!

Why? It's all about the greed & the ego. The fancy watch, fancy jewelry, fancy suit, exotic cars, being the superstar, all that stuff.

Do they ever help the person who's been squashed by life? Do they ever pay for the next guy going through the toll gate? Do they ever just freely give their time to mentor others, expecting nothing in return? Do they ever use their income to buy good tools for those in their group who are obviously trying to build?

No, they don't.

Instead, it's always about greed & ego, me, me, me. It's never about the other person.

You truly have to care about people. And then you won't have the greed and the ego. And THAT is the kind of person who can build huge in network marketing, because you will attract people just like you!

Does your company have a 1 year business plan or a 100 year business plan?



Everybody knows that you have to be "ALL IN" with your business, your marriage, your family, and in the case of the Minnesota Vikings your football team. There is no success the other way.... We all would agree that you can’t be "Half in the ball game either". I have been watching the NFL Playoffs this season ,and I noticed that the Indianapolis Colts are "All IN". I was very impressed by their aggressive style of play during this years playoffs. I was very dissapointed by the Minnesota Vikings because their players weren't "ALL IN"( they kept dropping balls like hot potatoes). The only person on that team who was "ALL IN"( Brett Favre the quarterback). It just doesn’t work that way does it? If you want success, you have to be ALL IN. Not half way in. The same goes for your network marketing business.

I have just one question for you?

Use "Success In 10 Steps" To Boost Your Confidence

A lot of what determines success or failure is NOT the obvious stuff that you see and are concerned with.

Studies have shown that whether you're talking to someone on the phone, or in person, their impression of you & what you say is based ONLY ABOUT 8% on the words you use!!

The other 92% is your body language and the sound & qualities of your voice. I'm sure it's easy for you to understand that if you sound uncertain, no one is going to follow you. To be successful, you must sound and look like you know exactly what you are doing.

That is one of the reasons that this blog is so useful to you. The more time you spend learning about the intricacies of Success In 10 Steps, the more certainty you will have when you talk to a prospect. And as you study & gain the ability to direct them to a specific page that answers their question, you look to them like someone who really knows what they are doing.

And when they see you that way, it's a big key to their desire to work with you.
This is something you just cannot afford to shortcut. So open a new text file. Read Success In 10 Steps again, and take notes by chapter. Write down what strikes you as really memorable, really useful, and note the page it's on. Talk about it out loud. Tell what you really like. Again, write down your notes.

The better you get at this, the more confident you will sound when you speak with a prospect. When they can hear in your voice that you are certain you know what you're talking about, you are in good shape.

To build your own big income in M-L-M, the people you sponsor will need a constant stream of hot pr0spects. I can help you do that for them, and for yourself.

To your success,

How do I know if my company has integrity?


Our afternoon Leaders call yesterday was full of powerful information about why you need to read your company Policies & Procedures.

The #1 feature you must have in place for success:

Company management experience with integrity.

How do I know if my company has integrity?

The answer is simple: read your company Policies & Procedures. If you can't find them on the website, it's a big red flag. Some companies say you can't read them until after you join. BIG RED FLAG

Why are they ashamed of their P&Ps? Why don't they want you to read them? The P&Ps are YOUR contract to be in business with them - written by the company lawyers! Every time any distributor ever gets a termination letter, it says, "You have violated the Policies & Procedures." They never say you violated "Terms & Conditions." It's always "Policies & Procedures."

Most reps never actually read their P and P's. You need to do it ... it may really open your eyes. At least you'll know exactly what to look for and how to protect yourself.

Now go and read your policies and procedures.

Mastering The #1 Most Important Network Marketing Skill


Why do some people succeed in network marketing, while others never do?

If I've heard this question once, I've heard it a thousand times.

And the answer that keeps coming up over and over again is, successful people made the effort to understand what really makes people tick - what motivates them - why they make the choices they make.

That is what first led me into the personality studies.

400 years before Jesus Christ, the Greek physician and philosopher Hippocrates wrote about the four basic personality types.

In 1921, Dr. Carl Jung wrote the most detailed book ever on this subject. He called the 4 personality types Feeler, Sensor, Thinker, and Intuitive.

Florence Littauer later named them Phlegmatic, Sanguine, Melancholy, and Choleric.

Years later, Jerry Clark made it easy - he tagged the personality types by color: Red, Blue, Green, Yellow

Many experts have written books and recorded audiotapes on the subject, including

Michael O'Connor
Kathryn Briggs
Dr. Tony Alessandra
Jim Cathcart
Tim Lahaye
Dr. Bernice McCarthy
Jerry Clark

My personal thanks to all who have contributed to the personality-type knowledge base. Their research & conclusions are the basis for our mentor training

Color To Success

I know of no other subject that when used correctly can have such a positive impact on your life and your business.

This stuff works. Best of all, it works fast.

People fall asleep when you say "phlegmatic, sanguine, melancholy and choleric". But they understand Red, Blue, Green & Yellow. And you can easily learn to color your way to the top

A Concept That Changed My Life

I can't even begin to tell you how different my life is since learning how to spot and work with each of these Color personalities.¬ "Color To Success" is the most popular, most life-changing training we do.

Maybe the biggest change is this: to spot these personalities, you must LISTEN to people! And wonderful things seem to happen when you actually listen.

Everyone is a blend of all these Colors. Personally, I'm 40% Blue, 30% Green, 20% Red, & 10% Yellow. But I've learned to be a chameleon to deal with people.

The Key To Success With 70% of Your Prospects

Used to be when I came across a Green (and they are 35% of the population!), I saw someone who took forever to make a decision. They'd analyze it to death

They drove me crazy. So I'd blow them off. I wouldn't even return their phone calls

But look at this - I was losing 35% of my prospects! And when a Green joins, they never quit. They're not like the Blues. You can put a Blue in the business tonight, but they'll never do anything. They'll never even activate their business. They'll just join, because they thought it would be fun.

But the Blues will put you in contact with a lot of good people.

So the biggest secret for me was learning that network marketing is not a sales business. It's a teaching & mentoring business. No wonder the Yellows & the Greens are so good at MLM. AND combined, they make up 70% of the population!

I've discovered that it's critical to let the Yellows & the Greens know that their network marketing struggles are not their fault. The cards have been stacked against them. The Reds have been telling everybody the whole time that it's a sales business. Sell, sell, sell

But MLM success has NOTHING to do with selling. It has EVERYTHING to do with teaching, training, coaching, and mentoring people

You Can Use This Training To Automatically Bond With Anyone!

This technology will connect you with the deepest desires and needs and fears of the people you set out to bond with. It won't be long before you actually know these people better than they know themselves.

The sad fact is that most people are too self-absorbed to ever actually use this training. It is worth an absolute FORTUNE to those who do.

When you listen to people and truly understand their personality, you have the ability to help inspire them to greatness. The rewards for you are way more than just financial

On the other hand, if all that matters to you is YOU, you really don't have a prayer in network marketing

For us and for many others, learning the personality color secrets has been a life-changer

This information is a very valuable resource to have when working with people, and it can be used anywhere, not just in network marketing.

I have been able to help a lot of people just by knowing what personality type I am visiting with.

How To Evaluate An Opportunity

Your Ex-Spouse Was An Optimist
OK. Listen. I’m NOT talking to you here. But
just be still and listen in anyway.

See, I’m talking to the guy who downloaded this e-book right after you. HIS exspouse
told him he probably was being a little unrealistic (not her exact words,
but that’s the gist) pinning his future financial hopes on a company that
promised him:

·He wouldn’t have to work - it would all be done for him.

·He wouldn’t have to actually deal with and recruit any yucky people – his group
would be built automatically through "spillover."

·He wouldn’t have to sell – his people who spilled over would do that.

·He could get rich just by clicking his mouse.

And other than that, all he’d have to do is deposit the checks!

In fact, our boy’s ex-spouse actually went so far as to imply that if a
person is lazy, greedy & gullible, they probably don’t have a bright future
in business.

She was right, of course. But that’s only half the story.

In some cases, it’s actually sincere people who make those offers, because
they’re so afraid nobody will join them if they know there’s actual WORK involved.

When you train people to do nothing but wait for you to do it for them,
you wind up with people who do EXACTLY what you've trained them to do...
nothing!

OK. Enough of that. It doesn’t apply to YOU, anyway. Let’s get on to the evaluation.
This formula has 5 parts. Each is important.

Here they are, in order of “easiest to evaluate.”

It Just SEEMS Like Brain Surgery

People ask me all the time,
"Michael! What is the BEST compensation plan?
Here's my answer.

The best comp plan has 2 key features:

1. It works "with" the numbers (I'll get to these in a minute)
2. Average people (part-timers) can build & prosper. (The vast majority in your
group will be average people).

Most network marketers are doomed from the get-go because the compensation
plan they are working does not work with the numbers.

Don't listen to me. Just listen to the numbers.

I used to race dirt bikes. When 59 motorcycles come off a 27-foot high jump,
not one single bike EVER "magically" floats up.

Fifty-nine out of 59 come crashing back to mother earth.
Gravity.
You cannot SEE gravity.
Makes no difference if you like gravity or not. Or if you understand it.

But if you jump motorcycles, you sure better learn to work with it.

In 26 years in network marketing, I’ve learned that you have to become a numbers-
cruncher or die. You may not LIKE the numbers, you may not understand
them.

Doesn’t matter.

The numbers are reality. Either work with them, or sayonara.
So … what are the key network marketing numbers?

1. If you ask virtually any successful network marketer about their success,
they'll tell you most of their income comes from 2 to 3 people in
their group.

I'm not making up that number. I have learned to work with it.

2. MLM industry statistics tell you that "average" distributors sponsor
2.7 people into any home based business in their career.

I'm not making up that number. I have learned to work with it.
Do you see a connection between these two sets of numbers?

Yellows make up 35% of the population. They don't like aggressive people.
Blues make up 15% of the population. They don't like being sold.
Greens make up 35% of the population. They don't like pushy people.
Reds make up 15% of the population. One-third of Reds don't like being sold, either.

3. So 90% of the population, 9 people out of 10, 900 people out of 1000
don't like pushy, aggressive people, or being sold.

I'm not making up that number. I have learned to work with it.

When I call prospects I have 9 out of 10 people 900 people out of 1000 leaning
forward wanting to find out, how I can help them reach their dreams.

This is because I lead with benefits, benefits, benefits,

I NEVER, never sell or close them.

People ask me all the time, "Michael, why do my people just SIT there? Why
don't they DO something?”

Well, brand this MLM truism on your brain:

If you sell or close your people to join your opportunity, you will have to
re-sell them every month to get them to do any work!

Logic & experience will tell you THAT statement is true.

So back to the compensation plan question. Just work with the numbers and
you'll never go wrong.

If the "magic" number that most people sponsor is 3, then any plan wider then 3
will not work for the masses.

Note to the Red “Super Recruiters:” I know, I know. You can sponsor 3 people
a day. Maybe 3 a minute.

The bad news is, you only make up about 3% of the population. Your best bet is
a plan that pays you fast-start money on everyone you personally sponsor and
that also pays leadership bonuses to infinity for unlimited income.

Pay Dirt! Get And Keep your people


People figure they have a great company, great products, excellent marketing
plan, good skills, proven track record, and on and on … so success in this business
should be like rolling off a log.

And then they get crushed UNDER the log!
Some facets of this business are so obvious, you may take them for granted …
and never actually DO them.

For instance.

We talked earlier about a huge, all-encompassing, powerful “WHY” that will keep
you going in your business, no matter what you come up against.

But you need ANOTHER huge, all-encompassing, powerful “WHY”.
THIS “WHY” is the reason your prospects should choose YOU over all
their other 650 home business options. Your job is to make an impression
on them that they will NEVER forget!

I don’t know your business. I don’t know what advantage YOU offer that puts
you head and shoulders above your competition.
I only know that if you can’t offer that kind of advantage,

You Are ROADKILL!!

You got NO chance.

So to help give you some ideas, I’ll tell you the advantage we offer our
prospects that elevates us above all the competition:

“I’ll provide a lead generation system that brings ONLY the most qualified
people into your group. Then I’ll train them FREE, 5 nights a week,
to build relationships and become Top Sponsors who will build YOU a
lifetime residual income!”
… or the short version:
“I will personally help you get, mentor, and keep your people – for
FREE, 5 nights a week!”

You are certainly welcome to become part of our group and use OUR advantage.
But in any event, you MUST be able to put YOUR focused advantage into a few
words to create a lasting impression and elevate you above all your competition.

“So What?”

There’s a very well-known Direct Marketing guy (See? I DO know some of
them!) who once told me that after he writes an ad, he reads every sentence to
himself and asks,

“So What?”

If he doesn’t have a good answer, that sentence is GONE!

“So What?” is a good benchmark for YOU to use as you build your business. Everything
you plan to do … every sentence you write … ask yourself, “So what?”

In other words …

Am I on-target?

Have I gotten hypnotized by a side-issue and gone off in some time-wasting direction?

Is this piece critical to the final picture?

Does this make sense? Can other people follow it?

“So what?” will help you execute.

You’ll learn to be surgical in focusing on what’s important.
You’ll get rid of much of the clutter in your life.
It will help you define your competitive advantage.

I strongly recommend it.
