“I’ve been in Network Marketing for about 3 years with very limited Success. Basically doing all the Incorrect Things my upline was telling me.”

“I’ve Been in Network Marketing for 2 years and I haven’t been successful.”

These are 2 of countless testimonials given by people who are in the 97% of people who don’t make any money in Network Marketing. There are many reasons why

people don’t make any money…

Fear

Lack out Action

Run out of Money

And the list goes on.

But one of the Main reasons many of us fail is because of the “Old Stone Age” Business building techniques that are still being taught, even as we speak.

Right now as you’re reading this there’s an upline telling someone

“Make a list of Everyone You know”

“Make sure your at the weekly meetings and on the conference calls”

“Put me on the phone with these people and I’ll close them for you”

And the sad part about it is that a lot of “Uplines/Sponsors” don’t even know what they’re talking about. They’re only doing it because their Upline/Sponsor told them to do.

These techniques DID work a LONG time ago, however in todays industry, these techniques have not only led people into more debt and frustration, Even Network Marketing Companies have gone Bankrupt. And they believe it was because the product was no good, or the Comp Plan didn’t pay out enough, or the people weren’t motivated enough. And that’s the farthest thing from the truth.

These same techniques that are being taught today were very effective back when Network Marketing was a pretty new concept, and before “Scams” and “Pyramid Schemes” weren’t being ran. Now those same techniques are now just flat out “Blantant lies”!

And a lot of Comanies know they’re lies, but tell them anyway just to get people to sign up.

You couldn’t imagine the amount of Companies that advertise things like:

“100% AUTOMATED, NO SELLING, OR COLD CALLING”

“MAKE 5K A MONTH IN 60 DAYS”

These Companies know they’re lieing. I’ve even heard a CEO of one of these Companies say himself “Well, we all know they can’t really do that, but it’ll get them to sign up.”

My GOODNESS!! It’s no wonder why people think Network Marketing is a Scam!

But let’s be honest here, You can’t totally blame the Companies, because if people haven’t learned by know that there’s no such thing as “Get Rich Quick” then there’s nothing you can do for them. Becoming “Financially Independent” takes hard work, sacrifice, and commitment, not by Clicking a Button. If it was that easy We’d All Be Rich!!

But some of the other lies are “Ignorant Lies”. The kind of lies that people are telling, but don’t even know it. Kinda like the “Blind leading the Blind”.

People are told that “Anyone Can do this Business” when they can’t. Everyone can’t do Network Marketing, because they simply don’t have what it takes to Succeed.

Too many factors come into play, such as Personality (Not Good with People), Laziness (Too lazy to put forth an effort), Aren’t Persistant (On Fire today, Cooled off tommorrow) ,and the list goes on.

Therefore everyone can’t do this business. There are leaders who have learned that everyone that wants to join their business, just don’t “Qualify”.

Just because someone wants to join your business, doesn’t mean they’re qualifed. But we’ve become so blinded by “Greed” that whenever someone says “I wanna join” we see Dollar Signs, and not a person who’s investing their trust and confidence in us.

People are also told “The Product Sells Itself” which is another lie. No matter how many problems your product will solve, or how popular it is, Everyone isn’t Gonna Buy it.

There are plenty of people who don’t own a Bank Account, Who don’t own a TV, and don’t want one. And that’s ok.

And by you telling people “They’d rather have it and not Need it, than to Need it and Not Have It” won’t make them buy.

As a matter of fact, they’ll want it even less. And if they do eventually end of needed it, You’re the Last person they’d buy it from.

Same rule applies to your Business Opportunity. It doesn’t matter how much money can be made, or how easy it is to make it. Everyone’s not gonna join.

Inspite of what you’ve probably heard, There are a lot of people who are happy with their jobs, they may even Despise Network Marketing, and don’t wanna own their own business. And Yea, they might even want to make more money, but not with Network Marketing. And it doesn’t make them crazy, or scared if they don’t join.

And New Recruits are being told that “Some will, Some won’t, So What, Who’s Next?” And that’s true, not everyone will, but they’re told that the way to find those that will is to talk to everyone. And if they experience “Rejection” then that’s just a part of business, and they need to get used to it. But what makes it even worse is the way they’re told to go about doing it is “Sneaky”.

Because you lure people in with small talk, or F.O.R.M. (Family, Occupation, Recreation, Money) and like a boxer, if you see an opening, BAM!!! HIT ‘EM with your business opportunity. And if that person isn’t interested, then just go F.O.R.M the next person you see.

People don’t want to be apart of a “Sneaky” Business. And I say Sneaky, because you don’t see a MLMer just walk up to someone and say “Hey, I got this Business Opportunity with this Company, that pays this much, and I want you sign up so I can make some money.” Of Course you don’t, because they know there’s a very good chance that people would Laugh in their face, and say “NO WAY.”

Even with family and friends, they’re told to say things like “Hey, I really admire your opinion, and I want you to take a look at something and tell me what you think.” or something like “Well I’m just telling you about this because if a year down the road I’m making a lot of money, I don’t want you to say I didn’t tell you.”

You see “Sneaky”. They won’t just come out and say “I Wanna make some money with this company and the only way I can make it is if you sign up, so will you?” Being a friend isn’t a good enough reason for people to buy from you. (More on that at a later time).

To be honest with you, there’s a lot of Network Marketers who are like the “Get Rich Quick Companies”, they could care less if the person actually worked the business, they just want them to sign up so they can get paid.

But they’re given these Sneaky ways to Prospect people, but all that “sneakiness” ends up with the same results. A wasted presentation to a person, who wasn’t really interested in the first place, and every time you follow up with them, they just keep blowing you off. But you’re told to keep following up, because eventually, You’ll get them.

And these “Old Played Out” Techniques only work 3% of time, but they try to compensate that ineffectiveness by telling you 3% is good by hitting you with the Law of Averages “Talk to 10 get 3″ and if you can do that you’re considered and Expert. But the only problem is, the average Network Marketer only recruits 3 people.

What we need to understand is that People don’t buy a Product, A Service, or a Business Opportunity. People buy “Solutions”!

But not just any kind of Solutions, “Solutions they’re looking for” because Solutions don’t mean a thing if no one’s seeking them.

For example, if someone keeps complaining about being broke, and they don’t have a job, then the obvious Solution for them would be get a job right? And all over the place there’s “Now Hiring” Signs, but the person isn’t looking for a job, then those signs won’t mean a thing.

So in order to increase your chances of Success in Network Marketing, you must have a Marketing System that brings “Pre-Qualifed Prospects” to you. People that are actually looking for what you’re offering. At that point, you’ll be perceived as an “Expert” because they came to you, not because of the amount of people you talked to, or how good of a “Smooth Talker” you are.

And also, by having a Marketing System in place, you’re able to prospect 10, 20, 50, even 100 times more people at the same time, versus doing it the “Old Fashion Way” which is “One By One”.

And your system allow you to only talk to people who either want more information, orwho are Ready to buy. That way you’re not wasting your time with “Window Shoppers” because your system will sort out the one’s that aren’t doing anything but “Looking.”

And there will be a lot of instances to where you won’t actually talk to anyone, because your “Marketing System” will close them for you. Not your Upline/Sponsor, Not the guy making $30,000 a month, but “YOUR” System. And think about it, that’s way more duplicatable and simplier than you calling you Upline, and (if they Answer) Make sure they’re not busy, and willing to do a “3-Way” with you, because you don’t know how to close them YOURSELF.

Whenever your business is dependent on someone other than you, you may want to get some “Network Marketing Insurance” because if something happens to that person, and you don’t know what they know, you’re in for a long haul.

But when you have a system that “Gives the Information and even does the Closing For You” WOW!! How amazing would that be for you and your team!!

Now having a Marketing System will not eliminate the fact that you still have to build relationships with people, because you will. If someone tells you that you can build a successful business without talking to people, RUN!! Run very fast in the other direction, because that has sSCAM written all over it. Because building relationships with people in Network Marketing isn’t just essential in Network Marketing. “IT’S A MUST”. That’s why it’s called “NETWORK” Marketing.

But having a Marketing System that reverses the Prospecting to where you have people asking you “Can I do what you’re Doing?” That’s far more powerful than you asking them “Wanna join my business?” Which one would you rather have?
