Internet Network Marketing Resource

Today I am going to reveal one of the latest network marketing strategies involving the proper promotion of health and wellness products that many struggling network marketers are overlooking in favor of the latest gimmicks on internet marketing strategies that have not been proven yet.  Too many network marketers are so focused on the business side of the equation because of the intense competition surrounding a wide range of health and wellness products out there in the market place that can literally make your head spin.   Many network marketers mistakenly think that in order to stand out from the crowd,  they have to focus on promoting the business side of network marketing in order to attract the health and wellness mindset.   Today I am going to use my father as a perfect example of how an herbalist friend of his convinced him to  try an actual health and wellness product that is not part of the network marketing industry.  My father is a perfect example of how his friend has carefully staked out his target market of those who are passionate about health and wellness to generate highly qualified leads for the health and wellness product he was marketing. If you are struggling with the  network marketing strategies that you are currently using,  I hope this story will change your perspective on how to promote to the health and wellness masses in a unique way.

My father suffers from a bad case of skin rashes especially below the belt.  In other words,  he also had a bad case of jock itch.  After trying all the different kinds of ointments that sold over the counter in stores like Walgreens,  he came to the conclusion after numerous trials that those products didn’t work.  Every time I come over to visit him in San Francisco at his house,  I always painfully see him applying a different brand name ointment every single time.

In other words,  my dad was constantly buying all kinds of products that would aid him in his quest to stop the itching.    Being the internet marketer that I am,  I would personally ask my dad, out of curiosity, of how he had arrived to the conclusion of choosing the  products he was using.

My dad told me that he simply chose the products based on desperation.  In other words,  if something didn’t work,  he would constantly try something different until he found the solution he was looking for.  Obviously, he would not ask anybody he knew about a great product that has been proven to relieve jock itches.   It was such a touchy subject that my father never talks about it.  But I would bring it up in the conversation because I simply couldn’t help but noticed him in agony as he constantly applies the multitude of ointments that he has literally wasted his money on.

The point I am trying to make is this.  Have you ever heard anyone asking a friend to recommend a great product for relieving jock itches?   It is probably an embarrassing question to ask a personal friend.

So my dad decided to seek an herbalist in the San Francisco chinatown area to treat his problematic itch.  Due to the multitude of credible herbalists practicing herbalism in the San Francisco chinatown area, my father eventually chose one from the ads in the Chinese newspapers he reads every day.   He told me that this particular herbalist specialized in relieving all kinds of skin problems relating to itching.

The fact that my dad responded to an ad ran by the herbalist who treated him is a classic example of good old simple advertising that focuses on offering solutions to people who were desperate for one.   This is the classic principle of target marketing.

As a network marketer who is constantly looking for new education on how to implement effective network marketing strategies,  I decided to do my own research on my dad’s buying behaviors and what led him to the decision of choosing this particular herbalist out of the hundreds practicing in the city of San Francisco.   I find this exercise to be incredibly crucial because you never know what goes on inside the mind of the customer unless you ask him or her.  And the great thing about this is that I had the rare opportunity to conduct the survey myself.

If you had read any books on the subject of successful marketing, they will tell you over and over again until you are blue in the face that the best way to sell anything to anybody is simply to ask them what they are looking for and giving them what they want.  It is just that simple.  But the problem that most internet marketers have is that they don’t want to ask because they think that the majority of prospects are too busy to answer their emails.  When was the last time you replied to an autoresponder email?  Probably rarely.

And not only that.  They think that autoresponder emails are supposed to close the sales for them by simply keeping in touch with their prospects automatically until they are in the mood to purchase.   But what is missing from this marketing equation is the personal interaction that they can have with their prospects that can literally take their sales conversion to a higher level.

The point I am trying to make is that my dad responded to a classified ad in the Chinese newspapers that basically addressed the problems that he was having and offered a simple solution that was backed by the credibility of the herbalist who stated clearly that he specialized in skin rashes and itching disorders.

If you heard me interrogating my dad,  you would have commented how I sounded like an attorney.  I was so frickin’ curious about how he goes about his daily purchases especially when it concerns choosing one herbalist out of the hundreds.  Talk about competition!!!   What made my dad chose this one in particular?  I found out by actually looking at the ad myself and noticing how the ad stood out in terms of offering benefits on the subject of skin rashes and itching.

To make a long story short, my dad told me that for the first time he is finally finding relief at last.  And the next thing I know,  I saw him one morning consuming a bottle of a health and wellness product called Isotonix.  Out of curiosity, I asked him who recommended him the product and he told me that it was the recommendation of his herbalist friend.  My dad told me that it was rich in antioxidants and helps with high blood pressure and high cholesterol.

Despite the fact that my sister Winny already having my dad consuming the Monavie product consistently (an MLM Health and wellness product that I am passionately promoting currently via word of mouth),  my dad is constantly in the market to try new products.  That is just his personal nature.

So what is the lesson of today’s post?   It is proof of how you can sell more to your customers once you have earned their trust.  My dad trusted the herbalist because the herbalist provided him with some actual ointments and recommendation of dietary changes to relieve his jock itch.  And it actually worked.

And this same herbalist convinced my dad to try the Isotonix product ( a health and wellness product that is not part of the MLM industry based on my research).  My dad is a classic example of how he would continue to buy from you if you earn his trust!!!   There is no network marketing strategy for health and wellness products that is more powerful than what I revealed today.

Happy Father’s Day!!!

This is part 2 on How to Earn a Six Figure Income With A Proven Network Marketing System.  Today I am going to reveal more about Henry Tong’s proven network marketing system that has helped not only himself but his downline members recruit very effectively into their Monavie business.  What Henry Tong teaches goes against what is being taught online  right at this very moment.  He doesn’t know anything at all about web 2.0 social media marketing or any kind of internet network marketing strategy.  As a matter of fact, he is completely ignorant of it.  He has told me in person that he never believed in it.   Why change what already works for him?  All he did was simply gave away the bottles of the Monavie juice to people he cared about.   As it turns out that most of the people had health challenges that really benefited from that product.   What I am going to cover is how to go about sharing the product correctly to get tremendous results that could possibly and more likely lead you in the direction of earning a six figure income.  I also found out that this network marketing system is strictly a word of mouth marketing system that can also be implemented on web 2.0 if done properly.

What impressed me about Henry Tong is that he has always told me that he was a big believer in systems.  As a matter of fact, when he sold life insurance for 20 years,  he had relied on a system to help him achieve a decent income.  In the previous post,  I talked about how he casually gave away the bottles of Monavie juice to everyone he knew because he simply didn’t want the product to go to waste.   His good friend and upline sponsor,  Jimmy Mak, was the one who was paying for his monthly autoship.    Wasn’t that a good luxury to have?

So in essence,  the product was the star of the show.   If the product didn’t change people’s lives,  Henry would not have experienced the remarkable sensation of  people coming back to him for more product!!!  And that is what dramatically reversed Henry’s skepticism about the network marketing industry.

As a result of his success from the people who signed up under him,  Henry Tong created a unique system based on the MLM support system of Monavie to help his downline members achieve residual income streams quickly. This system is so simple that even a third grader can do it.  But the problem that he finds with most adults is that most of them suffer from analysis paralysis, and as a result, sabotage their success.   What exactly is this network marketing system that is capable of helping average joes earn a six figure income?   It is nothing more than sharing the product CORRECTLY.

Henry told me that a lot of people don’t know how to share a product correctly.  A network marketing system has to be so simple that it is duplicatable from a word of mouth marketing standpoint.  Let me give you a perfect example of what he is talking about.

For example,  if he found someone who can really benefit from the Monavie juice product,  his opening line would be something like this:  “Hey Gerry,  I have a product that I am promoting that is getting a lot of  people great results with their health.  I want to get your opinion about this product.  When can I stop by to drop it off?”

Most of the time,  his prospect will either say yes or they want to know more about it.  But what you want to do is to simply not to say anything else other than this: “I will provide you with plenty of literature and brochures that will explain what this product does.  They do a better job explaining it than me.”

Did you notice that Henry Tong’s presentation is very short and brief to the point where it invites a lot of mystery and curiosity. Do you remember this famous saying from a highly successful marketer:  Lead with mystery…Close with benefits!!!

The Close actually takes place later.  We are just focusing on creating mystery in the minds of your prospect.  This has proven to work every single time without facing the possibility of rejection.

Upon dropping the product off, he would say to the prospect:  “I need you to follow specific instructions in order for you to reap the maximum benefit of this product.  Can you follow instructions?”  The prospect would always say, Yes!!

And Henry would respond by saying: “What I need you to do every morning is to drink 2 ounces of the Monavie juice on an empty stomach the first thing when you get out of bed.  If you can drink 4 ounces, the better.”

Henry would then proceed to open up the bottle of juice and pour him or her a small glass for him or her to taste before he leaves.   He demonstrates the importance of getting the prospect to experience firsthand the remarkable tasting benefits of the juice.  In order to increase the likelihood of the prospect to use the product,  they need to drink a little bit of the juice on the spot.

This has already been proven to be effective from a  network  marketing standpoint.  When you give away samples of anything for people to try,   they will more than likely come back for more if they liked it.   That is exactly how Costco is capable of giving away large samples of  food to their shoppers and generate massive sales on the products that were being sampled.

Henry Tong talks about the importance of following up in about 3 days just to make sure that they are taking the product according to his instructions.    And when he does follow up,  he would ask this very important open-ended question: “So what do you like best about the product?”

If the response is positive, he would ask them this following question: “If I can show you how to get this product for free, would you be interested?”

If the response is negative,  he would ask them another series of questions like:  ” Have you been drinking the product consistently every day as instructed?”

The reason why this question is really crucial is that he wants to make sure that his prospect is reaping the maximum benefits of the product.  And in order for that to happen,  he or she must drink it consistently on daily basis preferably on an empty stomach the first thing in the morning.

The reason why these instructions have to be followed to the tee is because that is exactly how most of his consumers experience the maximum benefits of the juice product.  Why re-invent the wheel when you already have testimonials coming from people who have already taken the product and have benefited from it? So in essence,  they already know how to consume the product correctly.  And all you are doing is sharing that exact same advice coming from your testimonials with your new prospects!!  It doesn’t get any more simple than that!!!

Most of the time, they would say yes,  and that they are interested in learning more about how to get the product for free.  Then Henry would make the next step to close the sale by asking them how they would like to purchase the product: Wholesale or retail?  He would mention the enormous savings of ordering at wholesale.

Henry Tong mentions that these series of questions followed by a simple presentation that a third grader can do are nothing more than an effective system of doing things.  Although he does admit, many times, you will come across questions that you will not know how to answer. That is how you learn from your mistakes.   It is okay to not know all the answers.  We are human to begin with.

By staying constantly informed on the latest strategies on how to deal with tough questions is a never ending process.  You will usually learn that from your upline and downline members as they are more than kind enough to share with you their secrets on how to handle certain kinds of objections.

Just remember that network marketing system is not exactly a sales system.  It is more like a system that teaches distributors how to effectively answer any kind of question that would satisfy the prospect’s mind.  Just remember this.  If the prospect’s mind is not at rest, he would not buy your product.   And learning how to answer the tough questions is crucial.

Don’t look at your inability to answer a question as a roadblock.  Look at it as a challenge.  If you don’t know how to answer a tough question that may have caused you to lose a sale,  don’t fret about it.  Present that question to your upline and they will more than happy to help you as far as how to deal with tough questions.

Henry was saying to me that the more you do it, the more you get better at it.   Selling is not about convincing people to buy your product.  It is more about sharing the amazing benefits of what your product has to offer, and letting your prospects convince themselves that it is indeed a great product by educating them via brochures,  website information,  and answering their questions satisfactorily.   Education is power!!!!  We are in the education business !!!

This network marketing system for generating a six figure income can be applied to any network marketing business opportunity provided that the product is remarkably unique and has a track record of changing lives.   Once you have found that product,  then you can follow this network marketing system with PASSION!!

Just remember that Henry Tong would have never been a six figure income earner if he didn’t believe in the Monavie product in the first place.  Henry’s story is indeed so remarkable because he was on the verge of giving up on the network marketing industry until his friends and family told him about the amazing health benefits they have gotten from the juice he had given to them as a gift.   The juice works!!!  That is exactly what ignited Henry’s passion in the Monavie product!!!

Today’s post is dedicated to my sister’s upline sponsor by the name of Henry Tong of Monavie who has truly mastered the secret on how to earn a six figure income with a proven network marketing system that almost all struggling network marketers take for granted.   He is one of the top distributors of Monavie along with his upline sponsor, Jimmy Mak who is also a six figure income earner.  I was honored to attend a seminar in San Francisco conducted by those two top distributors of Monavie where they revealed their secrets on how to easily create a six  figure income in network marketing.  The same principles that they have taught can equally be applied to any network marketing business opportunity provided that the MLM company offers a truly unique product that solves your target market’s problems.

Let me start off by revealing how did Henry Tong got involved in the Monavie business.  He was very skeptical when his good friend of many years, Jimmy Mak, introduced him to Monavie four years ago back in 2005.   Henry was skeptical about the network marketing industry as a whole due to the fact that he still, at that time, had cases of Morinda’s Noni juice still sitting in his garage gathering up dust.  So you can come to the conclusion that he was not happy about the Noni juice he had purchased which he couldn’t sell at all.   And this had certainly left him with a bad taste in his mouth. Morinda happens to be an MLM company.

So you can see why he was skeptical about the Monavie product because he thought it was like another Noni juice copy-cat product.  In case you are not aware,  Jimmy Mak was a hair stylist who took advantage of the Monavie business way before Henry did.  Because he knew about Henry’s ability as a insurance salesman,  he actually signed him up without his permission.  So Henry was receiving, on a monthly basis, cases of the Monavie Juice product all paid for by his good old pal, Jimmy!!

Jimmy knew that the power of network marketing comes from knowing a lot of people.   Since Henry Tong had already built up his credibility in his insurance business by being in the field for over 20 years,  Jimmy Mak figured that Henry would be good at promoting Monavie to his insurance customers.  So Jimmy, in a sense,  was making a big investment in his friend’s salesmanship ability.

What was incredibly fascinating is that Henry had waited eight months of receiving the Monavie juice product before he made the decision to give away the bottles of the Monavie juice to everyone he knew.  Little did he know that he was using a very effective network marketing system by accident that would result in him earning a six figure income a lot sooner than he expected.

Henry just gave it away casually because he didn’t want the cases of juice to end up in the garage like the Noni juice product, gathering dust from lack of consumption!!!    So every month when Henry received his autoship,  he would simply give away the bottles of juice to friends, family,  clients,  and even perfect strangers.  He never even bothered to save at least one bottle for himself to drink.  That is how much he didn’t believe in the product at that time!!

Little did Henry knew, at that time, the power behind the network marketing system that he was casually working with a nonchalant attitude!!  This story is so remarkable that I had to tell it to you today.  So to make a long story short,  Henry Tong  just constantly gave away the Monavie juice product that his friend Jimmy Mak was buying for him every month.   But what really changed Henry’s mind was when his friends and family came to him to ask him where they could buy the Monavie product.  And these were the people to whom he had casually given away the bottles of the Monavie juice because he didn’t want the product to go to waste!!!

It was as if a light bulb in Henry’s brain went off, telling him to really take a serious look at this possible six figure income earning opportunity.  He started off in the right direction by consuming the product himself to see the remarkable health benefits that his friends and family had experienced.

What was so funny is that Henry had given away so many bottles of the juice without any risk on his part since it was his buddy Jimmy who was paying for it.  And as a result of it all,  he signed as much as 20 people effortlessly.  And these were the people who have told him how Monavie has changed their lives dramatically from a health and wellness standpoint.

The greatest benefit that Henry received at that time was that it didn’t cost him anything to give away the bottles of juice.  It actually costs me $30 to give away a bottle of juice to someone.  I wish I had a friend like Jimmy Mak who payed for my product….LOL!!!

To make a long story short,  Henry Tong never expected the people to come back to him so fast, bugging the crap out of him about where they can get the Monavie juice.   It took something this dramatic in order for him to change his mind about the network marketing industry!!!   He finally realized how effective this remarkable product was to his friends and family members.

Being the experienced salesperson he was,  he began to train his downline members to give away the bottles of juice to people they cared about.  And since most of them didn’t have the same luxury (free bottles of juice) as he did,  he didn’t want his downline members to lose money giving it away to people who weren’t qualified in the first place.  So he developed a system on how to prequalify prospects for the Monavie product.  He actually developed an exact science on how to go about prospecting for serious product users:  people with health challenges and people who take vitamins.

Please make a note that Henry was not promoting the six figure income opportunity to get people to sign up under him.  All he did was simply gave away the bottles of the juice.   So this demonstrates the power behind the network marketing strategies of promoting product benefits and the value his people saw in them.  This is the secret to generating repeat product sales with a proven network marketing system that focuses on changing people’s lives.

In the next post,  I will continue in part 2 on Henry’s remaining story of how he achieved a six figure income with his proven network marketing system that you, too,  can easily implement in any legitimate network marketing business.

See you on the next post.

Today,  I am going to reveal to you a commonly overlooked and proven strategy that many Facebook marketing gurus are not sharing with you with regards on the best way to make money in network marketing using Facebook as a credibility building factor.  I accidentally discovered this myself when I was searching for reputable business owners online, like doctors, attorneys, and other people with a high sphere of influence who didn’t have a Facebook profile.  You are probably wondering right at this very moment what does this have to do with the best way on how to use Facebook to make money through the network marketing channels.  Well, please stay excited because I am going to reveal a proven strategy that any one can use to leverage the powerful credibility factor of someone with a high sphere of influence to attract tons of friends in the form of prospects who will eventually buy what you are promoting.

A month ago, I contacted a reputable product development specialist who runs workshop that walks entrepreneurs through the process of product creation.  In other words, he works as a consultant.  Due to competition reasons,  I am not going to reveal his name.  This guy has been on the TV on numerous occasions especially in the news.

One day,  I was looking him up on Facebook, and as it turns out, he doesn’t have a Facebook profile!!!  So I thought to myself, CHA CHING!!!  Wow.  I mustered up the courage to contact this person over the phone and I explained briefly what I do and in the conversation,  I mentioned the fact that he didn’t have a Facebook profile.

To make a long story short,  this was my pitch to him:  “Hey John…if I can honestly show you how you can get more business through Facebook,  would that be worth a few minutes of your time to see how you can get it done without no risk whatsoever?”

The product development consultant was interested.  I met with him at his home in Santa Rosa, California where his wife prepared me dinner and treated me like a king..LOL…During dinner, I discussed in detail of how I was going to go about creating a Facebook profile on his behalf that I will manage for him.

Now do you see the power of the Facebook marketing strategy as it relates to a great way to make money in any kind of business you are promoting?

In case you are not aware,  I am promoting Monavie and I happen to have a case of product in my car which I gave to him as a gift.   I gave him specific instructions on how to consume the product.   As you can see,  I was determined to make a believer out of him about this product.   I already sold him on the benefits of getting 19 servings of antioxidant rich fruits in his diet.

Well all this happened about a month ago.  Recently he called me back asking me where he can buy this product.   I told him that I will be coming over after the Father’s Day weekend to spend some time with him at his home to build his Facebook profile with tons of photos of all the products that he has helped his clients developed on their behalf.

To make a long story short,  I am about to recruit him into my network marketing business and leverage the credibility that  he already has  with the major TV news stations and his overwhelming popularity to attract tons of people to his new Facebook page.  This is indeed a gold mine!!!

But there is one thing you must know.  I must bring  your attention to one important factor that cannot be overlooked.  In his Facebook profile,  I am not going to promote the product.  I am building the consultant’s profile around what he does for a living and offering content in the form of pictures that his new Facebook friends can truly benefit from.

You are probably wondering right now how can he possibly use Facebook to make money in network marketing if I am so focused on creating a profile around his product development consulting business?   Well,  one thing you must know is that people don’t like to be sold on anything.  They come to Facebook to look for content that has tremendous value.   Facebook , in a sense, is like some kind of short form of blogging where you can share what’s on your mind in the form of content, like pictures, videos,  audios, and etc.

Just remember one thing.  The primary objective of using Facebook is just simply to make new friends through networking.  And once you have build credibility with your new friends on Facebook,  the money making part will automatically come.  And I will prove it to you beyond a shadow of a doubt!!!

First of all, I must reveal to you about the history of Facebook, and for what purpose was Facebook created by billionaire founder, Mark Zuckerberg.  This lesson cannot be overlooked.  If you have not watched a segment of 60 minutes on Mark Zuckerberg before Facebook experienced unbelievably astronomical growth in terms of usage by people all over the globe,  then you should check out this episode of 60 minutes.

Mark Zuckerberg is one hellavu genius.  He was obviously smart enough to know about the power of word of mouth marketing through the internet.   He has built Facebook around the fact that we live in a world where people are so frickin’ nosy about what their friends are doing.

There has always been a trend where people always ask their friends for advice before they buy anything.   Why?  Because that is just human nature.  We have been so desensitized by all the advertising that is going on because many of them are so filled with hype.  So most people have begun to turn to their friends for a recommendation.

Have you ever recommended a movie to a friend ? …a restaurant?… a great product?…..And guess what?  Your friends trust your judgement and they always will believe you more than any type of expensive advertising.

Mark Zuckerberg created Facebook on the premise that anyone can freely share content in the form of videos, pictures, and last but not least,  recommendations of products.  Please note that the recommendation of products are done so in such a way that you are not coming across as a sales pitch.

On Facebook,  there are sections where you can list your favorite restaurants,  favorite movies,  favorite products and etc.   People are so darn curious as to what their Facebook friends are doing along these lines.   So they spend a lot of time looking at what they are buying!  Why?  Because they would rather trust the opinion of their friends than anyone else.   And Mark Zuckerberg has made this process so easy where friends don’t have to physically contact their friends anymore to ask for a second opinion about a product or service because all this information is available on Facebook!!

In other words, if you are shopping for a car and you have doubts,  you will most likely log into your Facebook page to get a second opinion from your friends!!

Now I hope you are getting the whole picture of how I am going about to promote the Monavie product through the product consultant’s Facebook page.   I am simply taking advantage of his incredible popularity to attract new friends to him.

And guess what?  I will definitely have Monavie listed as one of his favorite nutritional beverages that he takes every morning before he goes to the gym to work out with his personal trainer every day at 11 am.

As a matter of fact,  Ed Tong, a successful distributor for Monavie,  has personally recruited  a lot of distributors from Singapore and Indonesia through his Facebook page using these exact similar techniques I just described to you.   If you have not read one of my older posts titled Facebook Network Marketing Recruiting Tips For Effective Online Branding where I talk about the success of Ed Tong and how he has leveraged the maximum power of Facebook to recruit new distributors overseas,  then you should do so now if you are serious about taking your network marketing to a higher level.

Ed Tong, by the way, has recently sold his house in San Francisco, California and has moved to Indonesia to marry the woman of his dreams whom he has met on Facebook.  And yes… His fiancee’ is a Monavie distributor whom he had personally signed up through Facebook!!!

He is going to be actively growing his Monavie market share over there.  Congratulations, Ed Tong!!!!   My sister Winny Loi and her Monavie upline are going to fly out there this coming July to attend his wedding and also to conduct business meetings there to assist their downline members.

So if you have not done so yet,  please take the time to look up reputable business owners who do not have a Facebook profile and leverage the power of their contacts to build new relationships.   This is truly the best way to make money in network marketing through this commonly overlooked joint venture relationship.

Today I am going to reveal a remarkable toolbar that you can apply to your network marketing business.  It is an Ebay toolbar by the way.  You are probably wondering what does an Ebay toolbar have to do with the truth about network marketing success?  One thing about this toolbar is that it functions pretty much the same way like the Google search engines.  Just think about it. When you want to search for something online,  you can go to Google and enter some keyword phrases and get back search results that are relevant to what you are looking for.  You are not the only one who happens to be searching for high demand items online.  There are billions of people throughout the entire global population pool that are engaging in internet search.  The great thing is that Google is a remarkable tool that can let you know what specific items are people searching for.  You are wondering what does this have to do with the Ebay toolbar in relation to your success as a internet network marketer?  Stay excited for more details.

Are you aware that there are so many websites that are in the business of offering toolbars for you to download?  Despite the various features inherent in each one of them,  the whole purpose behind their  availability is to generate more awareness  about the usefulness of their website.  The main goal is to eventually try to sell you something that can be an upgrade to the free toolbar that you just downloaded.   This is what I call smart internet marketing that already have been implemented by a lot of successful internet marketers.

But today I am going to talk more specifically about the Ebay toolbar and how much of an impact it has had for the buyers and sellers on Ebay.  This toolbar is free and a lot of network marketers are beginning to see the power of what it has to offer in terms of the truth about growing their network marketing business a lot quicker than expected.

The Ebay toolbar has many different features with numerous advantages that can be regarded as a leverage for growth.  With it, you can search the internet and Ebay at the same time.

You also get access to your “My Ebay Page” that allows you to accurately track your online buying and selling activity, send and receive emails, and update your account details.   If you trade on a consistent basis, you’ll have to sign in through “My Ebay”.

Spoof web sites are becoming a problem for the internet user because they have a successful track record of persuading unsuspecting consumers to give out their personal information.  And they accomplish that with the creation of web sites that look just like the official website.  Have you seen those fake Paypal sites that are springing up all over the place?   This is the kind of fraud I am talking about.

The Ebay toolbar has a feature known as Account Guard that specializes in protecting consumers by confirming their identification on Ebay or PayPal.  And they have a mechanism that will immediately identify a spoof website upon entry.  Therefore, your Ebay account will be constantly protected against the fraudulent emails and spoof web sites.  And you will be notified too by Account Alert if you happen to end up on a website that is not considered an official Ebay web page.

And having the ability to see the status of the items you are bidding on is crucial on Ebay.  For example,  your Ebay toolbar has a feature that displays the button for Items Won, which represent all the items you have successfully acquired through the bidding process in the last seven days.   At the same time, the Selling button allows you to check on the status of all your items: sold or unsold.

One of the benefits of the Status alerts is that you will get a pop up window at the bottom of your web browser that serves as a reminder for you to bid on items that you have lost.  This way, you are not going to miss out on anything valuable that is worth a good investment of your time and money.   And you are also notified about the end time for a particular item being bidded on.

These are results that you will receive from the Status alert notifications:  whether you lost the bid on an item…whether you won the item…whether your item sold or not sold…a second chance offer to offer your item to another bidder when the original bidder fails to pay.

One of the greatest things about the Ebay toolbar is the search function that operates very similar like the Google search engines.  You can quickly get highly relevant search results upon entry of any search term.

You are probably wondering what does the Ebay toolbar have to do with the truth about network marketing success?  When you make a sale on Ebay,  you generate pretty much the same kind of leads as you do with your lead capture pages.  Let me give you a perfect example of what I am talking about.

When you have a customer who purchased from you on Ebay,  you can send them a thank you receipt via email. And in the email message,  there would be a link to your website which is an invitation for them to join your mailing list.  This is an excellent way to contact them with any other offers that are relevant to what you have sold to them on Ebay.

But in the email message,  you have to specify to them that you are CAN-spam compliant.  This will increase the likelihood of them signing up for your email marketing offers.   And by giving them the option of the number of times they want to be emailed in a month shows that you maintain high standards of business ethics.  In other words, you are giving them complete control on when they should be contacted.   This establishes trust and credibility between you and your customers who have the potential to join you in your network marketing business.

As a matter of fact,  very few network marketers are using Ebay as a way to generate high quality leads for their network marketing business.   Burke Jones happens to be one of those network marketers who have really cashed in on the Ebay toolbar phenomenon to launch his email marketing campaign for his network marketing business.   If you really want to learn how to master the use of the Ebay toolbar in relation to the truth behind building a network marketing business on the internet,  Burke Jones would be the person to go to.

Today I am going to reveal a telephone prospecting technique pertaining to following up with your prospects who have already opted in to your lead capture pages to request for more information about a work at home opportunity like a network marketing opportunity.  These network marketing secrets is something that I stumbled upon accidentaly as I was making contact with my prospects over the phone.   If you really want to know how to really increase your MLM conversion rate by at least 300%,  pay attention to what I am going to say.   Do you really want to know what kind of network marketing secret I am about to reveal?  It pertains to local leads that you have generated yourself.   Local leads are basically prospects who live in your area who have opted in to your lead capture pages and are waiting to hear from you.  The biggest mistakes a lot of struggling network marketers make is that they don’t take the time to follow up with their prospects on the phone for fear of rejection!!!   Just remember this.  The ultimate network marketing secret in recruiting people into your network marketing business is in the follow up via phone where relationships are  built.  Stay excited for what I am about to reveal to you today.

One thing that I decided to do that was not in the network marketing guidelines or handbook was to invite prospects to a local meeting in their area.  You might be shocked as to why I would want to do this especially when a lot of struggling network marketers refuse to attend meetings because they simply want to do everything online.  They all think that meetings at a reputable hotel, like the Marriot or the Holiday Inn, are based on the friends-and-family recruiting approach that result in what they believe to be tremendous amounts of rejection.  What I have to say about that is that they are so far from the truth!!!

I want to let you know that hotel meetings are crucial.  Why?  Because it builds credibility and trust with the prospects that the opportunity that you are representing is a legitimate business.  Most online work at home programs do not have workshops where the founders would not meet with their promoters!!  Isn’t that a shame?

Just think about it!!  If you are running a network marketing company yourself,  wouldn’t you want to meet with your distributors who are actually building your business for you.  It just makes business sense!!

If you are not involved with a network market company that does weekly meetings at a hotel,  you should think twice about getting involved with that company.  That should be a red flag!!!  Why?  Because there are so many scams on the internet, and people today are so darn skeptical about those work at home opportunities.  And the best way to get them to lower their guard and open up to you is to get them to attend a local meeting.  This is best kept secret of how network marketing relationships are built!!!  Have you heard the saying that people join people…not the company!!!

I am proud to be affiliated with the Monavie network marketing company because as far as I know, they are the only company that is conducting  juice tasting events along with seminars at reputable hotels throughout the San Francisco bay area (my local area).  As a matter of fact,  I just recently went to a big meeting at the Holiday Inn in the city of Concord where over 500 local Monavie distributors attended on Thursday, May 28, 2009.    I had two prospects with me at this meeting who had signed up with me on the spot!!!  I am going to reveal to you a secret strategy of how I was able to get these two prospects to come to this meeting.

As an internet marketer,  I am in the business of generating leads through the use of lead capture page devices.  The lead capture pages that I am using require the prospect to leave down their phone numbers and their addresses.  I am not going to reveal what kind of capture page I was using due to reasons of competition.

As it turns out , I had about 10 prospects from my local area who have recently opted in to my lead capture page.  I was able to identify them by the phone number area codes  and the city information that they left on the contact form of my lead capture page.

I decided to follow up with a retired lady who lived in the city of Pittsburg by the name of Pearline Stamps, who resides very close to the city of Concord where the big Monavie meeting took place at the Holiday Inn.  After a dozen of phone calls without an answer, I finally was able to get her on the phone.  This is the script I used below.

” Hi, Pearline.  This is Billy from the city of Oakland.  How are you today?”

“I am a currently doing business in Oakland, and I am just simply returning your phone call.  The reason why I am calling you is because you had recently requested more information about working from home.  The purpose of the call is to find out if you are SERIOUS or just CURIOUS?”

Regardless of what her response was,  I responded by asking her this question: “If there was some serious money to be made within the next 60-90 days with a legitimate company,  would that make you serious enough to come to a local workshop in your area?”

These are the results of my telephone prospecting via the follow up approach.  Out of those 10 prospects in my local area,  8 of them agree to come to a local meeting.    Is that amazing or what?   This network marketing secret alone  had an 80% response rate.

Once I got the prospect to say yes,  I would continue to talk with them and get to know them better.   My conversation with Pearline lasted for almost an hour where we both talked about health and nutrition.  In the process,  I learned something about her, and at the same time,  she got to learn a little about me.   This is what relationships are about!!!   Please  make a note  that I didn’t immediately hang up the phone after she said yes?

Most network marketers would have hung up the phone and start dialing the next number because they believe it is strictly a numbers game!!  If you have this kind of mindset,  you are not going to last very long in this business.  You will find out that you will get a lot of no-shows at the meetings.  So please take the time to build rapport with your prospects by getting to know them on a personal level.

What I am going to reveal to you now is something that a lot of struggling network marketers would have given up after an unusually frustrating and unpleasant experience.   If you are curious as to what kind of experience I am talking about,  stay tune and open your ears for some undiscovered network marketing secrets that many gurus do not know about especially pertaining to telephone prospecting.

After having the conversation with Pearline a few days before the meeting,  I tried to call her again to remind her of the meeting in Concord.  But as it turns out, she never answered the phone after calling her about 10 times and leaving her messages on her voice mail twice.   At that time, I felt rejected, but I was determined to get a hold of her.

Just think about this situation.  I was wondering why on earth would she not answer the phone after I had already built rapport with her over the phone.   I was about to make the assumption that she saw me as a telemarketer and was just being nice to me by talking to me on that specific day.  In other words,  she recognized my phone number on her caller ID and was not going to answer the phone.    At least, that was what I thought!!

On the day of the meeting,  I was about to give up on her until 8 hours before the meeting on Thursday, May 28, 2009.  I decided to make what I truly believed to be my last phone call to Pearline.  I told myself that day if she didn’t answer,  I was NOT going to call her ever again.

But guess what!!  Pearline finally answered the phone and I was able to get her on the phone long enough to get her to attend the meeting on that same day.  I am proud to announce that Pearline Stamps from the city of Pittsburg is now a distributor for Monavie!!

The point I am trying to make in today’s post is not to give up once you have already built rapport with your prospects on the phone.   There are so many reasons why they don’t answer the phone when you attempt to call them again.  Instead of trying to waste a lot of brain matter figuring out why,  just do it without thinking much about it!!  Most struggling network marketers would have given up already and make a claim that those prospects are tire kickers in the first place.  Well, they are flat out wrong.  I am speaking from experience!!!  Pearline was not a tire kicker as what many would have thought incorrectly.

And Pearline was the kind of person who would have never signed up if she didn’t come to this meeting.  It is hard for me to articulate in my post about the power of conviction that is present in these meetings.  There is something so magical about the Monavie meeting that got Pearline excited.  She is not the only one.

You will be surprised if I told you that the top distributors in Monavie have said “NO”  to their friends a lot of times before they finally said yes.  Does this shock you at all?  And I want you to guess when did they finally say  “YES” to the Monavie opportunity?   If you guessed ” At The Monavie Meeting”,  you are absolutely correct.

The point I am trying to make today is that local events are crucial to your network marketing success.  If you are involved with a network marketing company that is not doing seminar events in your local area,  then you should make an effort to find out why?  There is no better network marketing secret than the power of relationships built at local events.   I saw it firsthand myself!!!

Today I am going to show you the secret of how to get the best MLM sales training for you and all your downline members.  Contrary to what you may be thinking,  MLM sales training has nothing to do with the latest internet network marketing strategies that are growing in popularity like the use of web 2.0 social media sites (Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, etc. ).  Would you be shocked if I told you that the best MLM sales training that you can ever get is learning how to become MORE passionate about the product you are promoting.    Not only that.  You need to learn the ins and outs of your MLM product and how it compares with your fiercest competitors.  Yes that is right.  I am talking about MLM product education.   You will be amazed at how so many struggling network marketers are so focused on promoting their network marketing business opportunity that they have become so short sighted on the benefits of what their product has to offer to their prospects.  Let me give you a great lesson from a  famous television commercial and  infomercial salesperson of OxiClean products,  Billy Mays.   If  Billy Mays had a network marketing downline who was promoting his OxiClean products,  he would have had a massive downline organization who would have inherited the style of his passionate sales pitches.   Just think about?  If you had downline members who were as passionate as Billy May’s,  would they have any problems at all recruiting network marketers into their business?

You are probably wondering how can a person like Billy Mays sell million dollars of products so easily?  He has done it over and over again with a multitude of cleaning products.  Have you watched any of his infomercials or commercials?   Can you see how passionate he is when he does his famous OxiClean sales pitches?

One thing I can say is that he knew his product really well.  Knowing the product well is not good enough.  He knew how to communicate it to TV viewers as one of the best cleaning products on the market place.  We all know that in order to make a sale,  your knowledge of your MLM product is of the utmost importance.

As a matter of fact,  I remembered very vividly when I saw my first OxiClean infomercials,  Billy May’s has certainly done a great job promoting the remarkable stain cleaning benefits of his product.  What impressed me is that he had communicated  the value and the benefits so well in a passionate tone of voice that got me sold on the product.  I remembered placing an order immediately before the infomercial was over.  That is how much he had made a big believer in me of his OxiClean product.

I was not only impressed with Billy May’s extreme knowledge of the product.  I liked how he had communicated the value and the benefits about the product so well that it was incredibly memorable.  And in marketing,  you have to stand out from the crowd in terms of  being unique in order to make sales.   The quality of his marketing communications had no flaws.  That is how much he has perfected his sales pitch with passion!!!

As a matter of fact,  I don’t believe that there were other aspects of stain detergents that he did not know about.  He articulated it so well that anyone could understand him.  When you see little kids imitating his loud sales pitches, then you know he has done a terrific job branding himself as the OxiClean man!!

In the OxiClean infomercials, he has eloquently demonstrated the side-by-side comparison of how effective his stain-removing detergent is at removing the toughest stains from clothing.  I remember him talking about the art and science behind the amazing technology of stain removal.   He talked about the molecules of stains in such a way that you can understand it.  And molecules are elements of science and technology, a topic a lot of us are afraid to study.

He talked about why stains are so tough to get out and why the current detergents in the market place have a difficult time at the task of stain removal.  Billy May’s has perfected the art and science in explaining the stain removal process of OxiClean in a few persuasive sentences that would peak anyone’s interest and curiosity.  This is exactly what is missing in the so-called best MLM sales training today.  Supposed you had developed the exact same skills of Billy Mays and applied it to the presentation of your MLM product?  Won’t people be interested in what you are selling?  Of course, especially when you can articulate it so well with the same level of passion.

It is rare that I have seen such amazing qualities in a sales person!!!   I am willing to bet that there isn’t anything he doesn’t know about stain removal.  I am willing to go out on a limb to say that if anyone wanted to debate him on the subject of stain removal,  he would win every debate easily!!!   That goes to show you that he has thoroughly researched everything about stain removing detergents, including the pros and cons.

Impressed by his success and charisma, I have done some research into his background. As it turns out, he has been a salesman since he was a teenager.   He hung out with other successful pitchmen,  and that is how he developed his trademarked salesmanship as a pitchman for infomercial products.  This is proof that a successful guy like him had mentors to look up to as he was growing up.

Billy Mays has definitely carved out a niche in his extensive knowledge of stain removing detergents.  He knew what he was talking about!!!  He knew it inside out, backwards and forwards.   He sleeps, eat and drinks stain removal detergents.   And that makes him a well known expert in this field.

And you are probably wondering how does this relate to getting the best MLM sales training?  If you still haven’t got it,  you must be living under a rock!!!   My sister Winny Loi, a Monavie Distributor who has made the Silver rank (congrats, congrats, my little sister) has perfectly mastered the principle of knowing what she is talking about.  She knows how to handle almost any objection because she is so passionate about the Monavie juice product.   It seems like every time when she talks to me on the phone,  the first thing I hear coming out of her mouth is new interesting facts about Monavie.  She has what I call the same Billy May’s kind of passion!!!

The reason why she is so good at selling and marketing the Monavie product so well is that her prospects really admire her knowledge about nutrition, health and wellness.  And the fact that she can communicate her knowledge so well is what get them interested in the juice product.  I can honestly say that my sister Winny is the best MLM sales training coach when it comes to prospecting your warm market.

And let’s not forget that my sister does not have a degree in health and nutrition. As a matter of fact, she has never been to college at all.  This is proof that you don’t have to use big college-educated words in order to market a nutritional product.  Have you ever dealt with a salesperson who tries to impress you with so many big words?  You will be surprised that they are constantly struggling to make sales.

A good salesperson explains their product in an easy to understand layman’s terms.  They avoid big words that makes most customers feel stupid.   A good salesperson also knows about the flaws in their competitor’s product and communicate it so well in terms of why the salesperson’s product is better.

The point of today’s post is to put a lot of emphasis on the best MLM sales training for your downline members.  And that training comes in the form of extensive product knowledge and research.   If you have any doubts about the validity of this advice,  let me remind you again to take a hard look at one of Billy May’s infomercials again.   Why is he capable of selling massive quantities of OxiClean products?  It is his unwavering knowledge, belief and passion about the products.  Can you instill those same exact values into your MLM product?

Today I am going to talk about a secret weapon that you can use in your internet network marketing business to improve your search engine rankings on Google.  I am referring to an MLM software that you can easily install on your website or blog that is intended to boost your Alexa Rank.  Most of the tips that I am revealing to you come from webmasters who specialize in the usage of MLM software and have achieved great results in  helping fellow network marketers improve their search engine visibility.  These webmasters have conducted numerous experiments with Alexa Rankings and are not shy about sharing their positive results of search engine rankings with the network marketing industry.

The question you are asking is does an MLM software actually work?   A lot of network marketers have claimed that they do work.  But that depends on the individual.  Some of the techniques require a lot of effort, and they will continue to work in your favor as long as you make the necessary to track your marketing results.  In other words, you have to think like an online marketer.  What makes professional marketers different from the amateurs?  They track their results, and find ways to improve their marketing performance in terms of generating high quality leads.

One of the methods being used involves learning how to increase your Alexa rank.  If you don’t think your Alexa rank has a lot to do with you achieving a high search engine ranking,  think again!!!   A high Alexa ranking will get you plenty of search engine visibility.  And the key to getting a high Alexa ranking is to  focus your attention on developing high quality content that attracts your audience to keep coming back for more.

There is an increasingly popular trend of internet marketers using artificial means to increase their Alexa Rank.   This approach is not a very effective long term strategy.  As it applies to nature and anything else in life,  the more natural the better.  And  Alexa has always been a highly reliable MLM software for top notch network marketers.

High quality content that generates incoming links will naturally lead to a sharp increases of web traffic, resulting in gradual increases in your Alexa rank.  However, I should really stress upon the fact that you should be devoting most of your energy to growing your audience with the strategies listed below.

The first thing you want to do is to install the Alexa toolbar.  If you have Firefox as your web browser,  the Firefox SEO tool bar extension will suffice.   Make sure that you set up your blog as the homepage.  If you have a website,  try to move your website over to a blog platform since blogs are more search engine friendlier than websites.  And plus, blogs tend to get indexed much quicker than websites because of the numerous content that is constantly updated on a regular basis.

The next thing you should do is to install an Alexa rank widget on your blog or website.  I know a fellow network marketer who had done it before and have noticed a big difference in the number of clicks he had received.  Regardless whether the Alexa tool bar is used or not,  every click counts as a visit.   So in essence, you already have your work cut out for you in terms of tracking your visitors.

What you want to do next is to highly get other people to use the Alexa toolbar.  And you can easily do this by telling them about the benefits of doing so which can easily be achieved by having a link to a page that explains in great detail of how the Alexa tool bar and it’s tracking system works.  But at the same time,  you should also have an brief introductory explanation on page that describes the full benefits that they will get out of it.   You have to remember that people are sold on benefits!!

If you work in an office,  it is highly recommend that you get the Alexa tool bar or Firefox SEO extension installed on all your computers.  Don’t forget to make your blog or website the homepage for your browsers.  This will work only if all those computers have different IP addresses.  Sometimes a network of computers will have identical IP addresses.  And this will usually throw off the results.

Getting your friends to review your Alexa site info is an excellent way to generate awareness of your website or blog’s existence.   Writing a blog post showing people how they can increase their Alexa rank is a great way to generate additional traffic from your site’s visitors.  They will usually be more than happy to link to you and send you massive amounts of web traffic from visitors who already have the Alexa tool bar on their web browsers.  The positive impact that this exercise alone can have on your Alexa ranking is tremendous!!

And there are times where many of your site’s visitors can possibly be webmasters, and many of them already have the Alexa toolbar installed already.  And if they do like your content,  they will be more than happy to carry your content on their website which, in turn, will generate more web traffic for you that will lead to higher search engine rankings.   But your content must be related to the webmaster’s content.

And also learning about the forums frequented regularly by those webmasters  can definitely help you get some great exposure.  Just think about it.  Everyone who visits your website probably contributes to a forum regularly.  And that visitor, who already has rapport with the other members in the forum, can easily make a formal introduction by telling them about what you have to offer.

Promoting your content on social networking sites like Facebook, MySpace, and Twitter are also part of the strategy of generating more awareness for your blog and website.  One trend you may want to take advantage of  involves posting your articles in Asian social media sites.  Why?  Because  the current research statistics reveal that Asians are dominant users of the Alexa toolbar as evidenced by the presence of many Asian websites dominating in Alexa’s top 500 ranking.

And last of all, this is the most important section of today’s post.  Just remember that many of your visitors are in fact webmasters themselves.  And many of them might be interested in a network marketing business that you are promoting.   One thing that MLM webmasters have in common is that they are constantly in the market for new  MLM software or tools that can dramatically make a difference in terms of improved search engine rankings.  And by creating a page where they can download those software is an excellent way to get them to return to your site more often.

If you track your marketing results often,  you should be able to identify your most popular posts.  You can simply install an Alexa widget with a traffic history graph at the bottom of your post.  This will optimize your posts for higher search engine rankings.  If you are trying to monetize your website with advertisements,  this is an excellent way to attract potential advertisers.

I am going to close this post with the most important comment relating to usage of MLM software (like Alexa).  Regardless of any strategy you may have heard on the internet,  the best way to improve your Alexa ranking is to focus most of your energy in creating quality content for your readers.  It is the content that attracts the visitors in the first place.  This is called effective attraction marketing.

Once you have earned their respect, then you can start using the other Alexa ranking strategies I have disclosed above.  But one thing you must remember is not  to sacrifice content quality for a higher Alexa ranking!!

Today I am going to reveal a topic that a lot of online marketers want to shy away from.  That is regarding powerful MLM education on warm market prospecting that is often overlooked in favor of internet network marketing strategies.  Why?  Many people are afraid of facing the possibility of rejection from friends and family if they were to present to them a network marketing business opportunity.  They don’t want to be criticized for getting involved in what many see incorrectly as a pyramid scheme.   As a result,  they simply give up on targeting their warm market leads in favor of internet leads.  I hate to burst your bubble,  but it is much harder to prospect a perfect stranger on the internet than people with whom you are acquainted.   Want proof?  Out of all the prospects who have opted in to your lead capture pages, how many of them have you actually made contact with on the phone?   The point I am trying to make is that it is lot easier to talk to your warm market leads (your friends and family) than it is to talk to a perfect stranger.   Most struggling network marketers do not know how to properly present the opportunity in such a way to minimize the possibility of rejection.  It is the unique kind of MLM education that I am going to reveal to you today.  It  is going to open your mind to a whole new way of warm market prospecting that will lead to increases in your batting average!!!

I know you are probably dreading the thought of your upline approaching you with the request that you make a list of names of everyone you know personally so you can contact them about your MLM products or business.  Although the task may be difficult for some especially those who have tried network marketing before and failed,  if your upline is really doing their job,  they should be able to give you some excellent MLM education on how to come up with a list of warm market leads effortlessly.  It is a lot easier than you think.

Statistics already reveals that you should at least know a thousand people especially if you are over the age of 25.  You just need a memory jogger of who those people are.  The best way to accomplish this is by asking yourself a series of questions.  Who do you know right now that you keep in touch on a regular basis?  And I bet out of those people, they know someone who happens to have a large sphere of influence….like doctors, insurance agents,  realtors,  lawyers,  accountants and more.  It is not who you know that is really important.  It is who they know that will help you find your network marketing superstar.  Statistics already has proven this already.

Although statistics currently reveal that you at least know 1,000 people,  what it is really saying is that if you know 10 people and those 10 people know 10 people,  you can honestly say that you know 100 people.  And it can get even more exciting.  Those 100 people know at least 10 people!!  There you go.  You already know a 1,000 people.

If you are wondering where I am going with this,  my sister Winny Loi, a highly successful network marketer for Monavie (I am proud to announce that she has made the Silver rank in Monavie!!!!!) ,  already has demonstrated to me how effective warm market prospecting is.  It seems like she never runs out of people to talk to.   Do you want to know what is her secret?  I even asked her myself!!!

She told me that everyone who had rejected her at least know 10 people or more who might be interested in her Monavie product or network marketing business opportunity.  As a matter of fact, she has gotten a lot of referrals through people she knew that didn’t join her in her Monavie business.  Her former boss from New York Life Insurance, Henry Tong, another successful Monavie distributor,  told her that is exactly how he has built up his insurance business.  It is all through word of mouth marketing from the people who knew other people, and those people who knew other people and so forth.  It continues on to infinity.

Just think about it.  Every day when you leave the house,  you do run into people you see on a regular basis. Sales clerks especially.  For example,  it is so easy to get the name of the person who works at Walmart.  I know distributors who would have called that person at Walmart, and gave a great introduction that would have convinced the Walmart employee to take a look at the business opportunity.

The sales pitch would go along these lines: “Hey Jimmy. My name is Billy.  I was shopping at Walmart the other day, and I noticed that you are a good worker with excellent customers service skills.  Let me cut to the chase.  I am looking for some sharp people like you to help me bring a unique product to market.  Would you give me at least 5 minutes of your time?”

The above example I just gave is an actual sales pitch used by a network marketer in my upline with great success.  And you are wondering why does this approach work?  It is based on human psychology.  And I can speak from personal experience.  I remembered vividly someone once calling me at my old job at Macy’s when I was working as a women shoes sales specialist,  and a representative from Prime America used that exact same sales pitch on me,  and I did give him a few minutes of my time.  To make the long story short,  despite being very interested,  I was more worried about job security at that time.  As a result,  I didn’t join Prime America.  This was back in 2003.

There are tons of network marketers who are using this warm market leads prospecting approach to recruit realtors for the past few years. Those network marketers have taken advantage of the declining real estate market to capitalize on the low income levels of those realtors.  And right now as I speak,  there are more realtors who are currently involved in the network marketing business than ever before.   I know some realtors who couldn’t sell a home for an entire year back in 2008.   So I can honestly say that they do keep their income earning options open!!

Now does this open your eyes to a whole new world of possibilities of warm market prospecting?  It has been proven to work over and over again. As a matter of fact,  MLM legend Doug Firebaugh teaches it.

In terms of jogging your memory of who you might know,  I have a list that may possibly trigger it.

Neighbors,  accountants, bankers,  attorneys,  realtors,  sales clerks (Walmart, JC Penny, etc), construction workers,  restaurant workers,  car salesman,  insurance salesman,  engineers,  church goers, and etc.

You will be amazed how it is so darn easy to come up with at least 30 names easily.   I remembered once thinking that it was impossible that I knew 30 people personally. My sister had played the memory jogger game with me and proved me wrong.  At least I had a working inventory of warm market prospects that I can contact about my MLM product.

There are so many struggling network marketers who constantly complain that they are not very sociable and they don’t hardly know anyone.   What they are doing is self sabotaging their success by already making an assumption that those people they know are not interested in what they have to offer.  This is what I call analysis paralysis. If they had at least any kind of MLM education under their belt about how to generate warm market network marketing leads,  there wouldn’t be so much self doubt in the first place.

How do you know if your potential prospects are not interested if you haven’t asked them in the first place? Just remember that it is how you present the opportunity is what generates their curiosity and interest.  A lot of warm market network marketers are doing it wrong.  Do you remember the sample sales pitch above that I just gave regarding the prospecting of a Walmart employee?  Use that as a swipe file for your warm market prospecting.

Another good way to jog your memory of who you know involves asking yourself the question of where are you spending your money? Who do you deal with when you are making your purchases?  The things you normally buy for yourself and your family?

Who is your dentist?  Your accoutant?   Your hair stylist?  Your manicurist?  Car salesman?   Who does your taxes?   I think you can pretty much figure out where I am going with this.   In other words,  if you are spending money with them,  they should be open to hear what you have to say.

Just remember,  you need your upline to provide you with continuous MLM education, especially on how to talk to prospects in a professional tone of voice.   There are tons of warm market conversational openers that you can learn from.   Just remember, there is no one-size-fits-all approach.  Just like in any marketing campaign,  your warm market prospecting approach must be tested constantly and tracked on a consistent basis.   Just think of it like a system.  Without a system, you will not succeed in any business.   All successful businesses follow a system.

Today,  I am going to talk about a MLM scam artist that is lurking in the MLM industry that you should be aware of.  His name is Daegan Smith.  Contrary to what you may have heard,  I am going to show real proof that he is in fact a scam artist and I am going to back it up with solid proof.  For those of you that follow my blog on a regular basis,  I occasionally launch attack posts on MLM scam artists who are hurting people financially and emotionally.  I used the word “emotionally” because it does have tremendous emotional repercussions after the fact.  In the previous posts, I talked about the importance of positioning yourself before a big trend.  Daegan Smith is doing that with another guy whom he had partnered with in a pathetic attempt to duplicate  the success of the “Dream Team” , also known as On Stage Marketing,  run by highly successful internet network marketers,  Terry Duff and Gino Nicoli.   As a matter of fact, Daegan Smith’s program charges double the price of what Terry Duff and Gino Nicoli charges.   I have solid proof to back this up.  Stay awake for what I am going to reveal to you because it is going to have you in an outrage!!

The point I am trying to make is that Daegan Smith and his so-called partner is no “Terry Duff and Gino Nicoli”!!!  In case you are wondering who is Terry and Gino,  they happen to be running a highly successful internet network marketing training course that is designed to teach struggling network marketers how to use Google Adwords along with article marketing strategies to generate high quality leads for their business.

Terry and Gino are two remarkable personalities.  Terry Duff is gifted in the area of internet marketing especially with Google Adwords, and also copywriting.  Gino Nicoli, on the other hand, is gifted in the area of telephone prospecting.   So in case you are wondering why these two skills are incredibly useful,  they are.  The point they are trying to make is that even if you have the greatest internet marketing skills,  you will not be able to recruit people into your network marketing business without some basic telephone prospecting and communication skills.

A lot of MLM students have enrolled into their “Dream Team” (On Stage Marketing) course, and have gotten great success.   How do I know this?  The students ,who have purchased the On Stage Marketing courses,  have remained satisfied customers to the point where they have even attended the workshops of Terry Duff and Gino Nicoli.  That is what I call dedication.  These are serious network marketers who have already gotten successful with the training program they are currently in , and have this insatiable desire to take their network marketing to a higher level.

The point I am trying to make is that these students are continuously spending money with Terry Duff and Gino Nicoli because they have gotten so much value out of their Google Adwords and telephone prospecting program.   To reiterate what I just said,  Terry is the expert in Google Adwords and copywriting, and Gino is the expert in telephone prospecting. These are the critical skill sets that you will acquire when you enroll in their network marketing training program.

I have actually had the opportunity to listen to one of their workshops, and they do offer tremendous value in terms of benefits through high quality internet network marketing and telephone prospecting education.

For those out there that think that people will sign up under you without talking to them,  that may be true… but in the long run,  lack of personal contact with your prospects will eventually lead to MLM dropouts!!!   Network marketing is about building relationships through effective communication.  Terry and Gino has already proven this to be true and they have documented their results through the success of their own students!!!!  That is what I call credibility.

Now you are wondering how does this tie in with Daegan Smith?  Well let me explain to you what Terry and Gino are charging for their programs and compare that with Daegan Smith.  Just remember, that Terry and Gino had been in business for a long time way before Daegan Smith.

In other words,  they were originally the first ones to brand themselves in the niche market arena of teaching struggling network marketers how to use Google Adwords to not only generate high quality leads for their network marketing business, but also how to use trackable telephone prospecting techniques to close their prospects with a high success rate.

Just realize that On Stage Marketing has two programs.  They have the telephone prospecting program which sells for about $700 dollars.  In this program, you will get access to 8 weeks of live and recorded training seminars that are about 2 hours in duration per seminar.   Gino Nicoli is the one who personally conducts the seminars.  So in essence,  you are getting about 80 hours of live training.  Think of it as going to school to learn network marketing all over again the right way.

Terry on the other hand runs the Google Adwords and copywriting program which sells for about $2,000. In this program, you will get access to also 8 weeks of live and recorded training seminars with the same time length in duration.

If you think that On Stage Marketing is charging too much for what they are offering , think again!!!  They have tons of network marketing students who not only gladly pays them that kind of money, but have also bought additional services in the form of live workshops.  Yes!!!  These students actually take time off from their hectic schedule to fly out to meet with Gino Nicoli and Terry Duff.  That is what I call dedicated commitment!!

Now let me reveal how network marketing scam artist Daegan Smith is trying to copy the success of Terry and Gino with a program of his own.  How did I know this?

If you have opted in to one of Daegan Smith’s lead capture pages,  you are obviously receiving his autoresponder email messages.  And one of those messages invites you to a teleseminar where he and his partner are promoting a program that is similar to Terry and Gino’s.  But there is one big difference.  They have the audacity to charge almost $5,000 for their program!!!!

And they even have the nerve to offer a money back guarantee if their students do not make at least $25,000 within one year’s time from the date of their enrollment.  Is this a coincidence or what????   In case you are not aware,  did you know that Terry and Gino had been offering that money back guarantee to their students a long time ago???  Yes!!!   And now MLM scam artist Daegan Smith, along with his secret partner,  is trying to grab a slice of Terry’s And Gino’s market share.  How pathetic!!!

Let me say this once again.  You all probably still remember former vice presidential candidate, Lloyd Bentsen’s famous line to Dan Quayle in the vice presidential debates of the late 80’s.  “Senator,  you are no Jack Kennedy!”

Well, this is what I got to say to network marketing scam artist Daegan Smith.  “Daegan,  you are NO Terry Duff and Gino Nicoli!!!!”

For those of you who can’t afford those two programs being offered by Terry and Gino,  don’t worry.  They have a network marketing training program that is affordable for everyone for only $47 a month.  And you will get access to the same benefits of the Google Adwords program and the telephone prospecting program too.
