How do I set myself apart from the MLM crowd? I tell the TRUTH! Truth #1: Network marketing is all about YOU! It is NOT about products, comp plans, selling, recruiting, etcetera ... it is is about YOU!
In an earlier post "Own Your Life - Announcing The 2008 - 2009 Freedom Tour" I introduced the whirlwind tour being conducted by 30+ year success entrepreneure & life coach Michael Dlouhy.

Recently my wife received a sweepstakes notice of winnings. Well, as you can imagine our "BS" meters were on full tilt from the start. So we went by the numbers & did our due diligence. Sure enough the Federal Trade Commission told us it's a scam, & then they dropped the bomb on us.
If we had deposited the check that came to us in the envelope we received we could have been charged with "participating in a scam"! The FTC representative who informed us of this told us it did not matter that we had not initiated this scam - we would have still been "criminally liable".
This reminded me of my school boy days when I'd been punished right alongside another boy I'd gotten in a fight with. The other kid started it, but I got in trouble anyway. I guess the FTC follows the same policy my principal did, "I don't care who started it, I'm finishing it!"
So there you have it, just one more reason to make sure you don't get scammed. After all, my principal just gave us a few whacks with a paddle & told us to behave - the Feds on the other hand might lock you up!
Do you know anyone who got started in a MLM business, got all excited & bouncy, & then suddenly stopped dead in their tracks with that "dear-in-the-headlights" look? Heck, that may even have been you when you got alone with your thoughts and suddenly realized, "Oh … I don't have any prospecting skills!" This is a network marketing challenge I call "starting gate paralysis. This is very common syndrome among new network marketers, & there's a very simple solution.
This syndrome usually prompts the new comer to frantically call her sponsor & ask, "How do I quickly strike up a conversation with a cold prospect?" To best answer this question let's look at it again to see what's really being asked.
Q.: - "How do I quickly strike up a conversation with a cold prospect?"
A.: - Well, how about, 'Hi'. Or, why not mention a common interest? I think you'll find this works well with most folks. So, starting a conversation really isn't the issue, is it? The real question is, "How do I make the transition from, 'Hi', to, 'Do you want to be a distributor'?" That transition is an "ice breaker".
There's loads of ice breakers, all designed to introduce your opportunity or product to your prospects."
Ex.: Find lots of negative people. Yes, in this case you want to be around negative people. Now when the complaints begin then say these exact words:
"Would you like to do something about it?', or, 'Have you ever considered doing something about it?'"
A "Yes" makes the transition you want that will open the door to the presentation side of the conversation. Now show them how your product or service can solve that problem. It really is just that simple.
A "No" automatically tells you that person is not a prospect. Drop it and part as friends.
Ice breakers are very simple prospecting skills that eliminate the fear of talking to cold prospects. Look for lots of negative people to introduce to your awesome product &, or opportunity. Whatever their complaint is, say, "Hi", or bring up a common interest, & break the ice by asking, "Would you like to do something about it?", or, "Have you ever considered doing something about it?" Then, you can spend your time with the warm prospects (those who say "Yes"), & you can keep your friends & friendly acquaintances who say "No" by leaving them alone.
Lately it seems everything is going up in price daily, while our incomes stay the same. Sharks are everywhere waiting to eat the unsuspecting who just want to make additional money from home. That's why you need to learn to spot those creeps so you don't get scammed.
What you need to know:
1. Why "Gifting" programs are rat holes. 2. The definition of a "Pyramid Scheme" & why there's no future in them. 3. What a legitimate opportunity looks like. 4. What you can do to find one.
3. MLM Watchdog> - Your source for legal Network Marketing, updates on who's in trouble with the feds, & more.
4. Federal Trade Commission - offers the legal definitions of illegal businesses as well as past & current litigation actions.
5. Better Business Bureau - a place where folks can post complaints about bad companies & read up on scam alerts.
The key to your success Is knowing when a biz op is both good & legitimate. The resources listed above will start you in the right direction so you don't get scammed. I appreciate you,
I live in a small rural community with the love of my life Charlotte.
I am passionate about our life together, being the best role model for our children & grandchildren, & treating everyone I meet with honor, dignity, & respect.
I have little patience for bullies, liars, quibblers, & cheets.
I live by the law of reciprocity. In other words, "OK, so I did the right thing ... but can I do more?
That's why I love MLM. I get to bring good things to good people & save them the hassle of dealing with the stinkin' thinkin' of the 9 to 5 world.
One of the most successful network marketers in the industry, my good friend & mentor Richard Dennis, says it best, "MLM is a personal development program with a compensation plan attached."
