MEMBERS ONLY
Probably one of the most SIMPLE and OBVIOUS STRATEGIES that many people DON’T see is this:
Follow an ALREADY PROVEN specific business
program or system. (This is what average people are doing
everyday in network marketing).
I think we all know that most people that set out to make their fortune with MLM never get there. There are a lot various reasons why 95% of MLMers never get to their dream land. The compensation plan is not aimed at the beginner, the company disappears, a lack of specific training ( the blind leading the blind ), no duplicable system to slot new members into etc. etc. So how do you make real money in MLM?
It's a good idea to keep clear of middle man type MLMs. If it's at all possible go to the company and ask for a tour. Watch the staff and its operations. Is it a well oiled machine or just one guy and a fax machine in a rented apartment. By going to the head office, talking to the staff, taking a tour you'll soon know whether or not to stake your most valuable assets on that MLM company, namely your time and money.
Find out their policy for payments and billing of your account. This is very important if your trying to build an international downline. Let me give you an example. You get a downline member in Japan (MLM paradise). He is automatically billed $100 per month by company ABC. They then send him a check for this months commissions $40. He takes that check to a Japanese bank. The bank charges him 2100 yen ($16US) to process it and send it to ABC's bank. ABC's bank then takes a further $16 out to send the remaining money back in Japanese yen. Your new Japanese member is now left with $8. Just enough to cover the cost of him going to the bank. A good MLM company will deduct monthly payments from commissions and only bill you the remainder.
(a) No one or no company can build your downline. "Spillover" (do nothing get members from your upline in some forced matrix) sounds great but is extremely rare and if you happen to get one or two members then count yourself very very lucky. No MLM company can feed its members new members. This kind of talk is hype at its best.
(b) The average MLMer will only ever personally recruit 10 to 20 members first line.
(c) Never assume that any person you sponsor will ever sponsor anyone. Forget the hype that if you sponsor 3 and they sponsor 3 and they sponsor 3. Often seen in pay plans as 3X3X3X3X3 etc. That's all nice and fun to think about. But should never be considered when evaluating a compensation plan.
(d) If a new MLMer is not in profit after sponsoring 3 to 5 people first line then he will disappear from your downline.
Now you know the ground rules you are in a better position to evaluate a compensation plan. Work out how much you will be earning if you personally sponsor 20 people who all take the lowest position in your company and each spend $100 per month. How much are you getting and how much is the company getting? How many people do you need to sponsor to cut your monthly product/service costs to zero?
Personally, the ideal compensation plan should have the following:
OK, you've checked out the company and the compensation plan and you're happy.
So you've found a solid company, great pay plan, great product or service. Sounds good but it's only the basis of a money maker. How are you going to find people to look at this great opportunity?
In Summary:
What you need to make money in MLM is:
DID YOU KNOW?
If there is no enemy within, there is no enemy without that
can do you in!
DID YOU KNOW?
That most of us limit our accomplishments because of sub-
conscious conditioning.
DID YOU KNOW?
That good things are supposed to happen to you!
DID YOU KNOW?
That it is better to not need it, than to need it and not
have it!
DID YOU KNOW?
That "Character" is the ability to carry out a decision long
after the emotion of making the decision has passed.
We have the vehicle, the tools, the system and the market. The missing element? The Dream Maker! The AGENT of change. I would like to give you a few thoughts that may help you stretch your mind and hopefully add some fuel to the fire that is simmering under your dream.
The answer to why some people are successful in Networking Marketing and some are not is in these next few sentences...... Only if you really want your own home based successful business! We have built one and we have met many leaders in the industry. I do not claim to have all the answers, but perhaps we can help you think and then decide if you really want this or not. It is available, it is up to you. It is the difference between the $200.00 a month income and thousands a month.
"Without a vision, the people perish"...this is a biblical truth, but it also works in your business, your relationships and all aspects of life. Network Marketing is a people helping people business. You may say, "I am after it for ME", not my neighbor! Become a dream maker and be willing to go the extra mile, spend the extra time, stretch yourself, sacrifice a little to help your neighbor! Learn to ask questions. What is your goal for this business? Show sincere interest. Peoples dreams are the gas that drives the vehicle and will keep it going when the going gets tough. People come and go in this business, but if you can tap into their dream, you will have them for life! Freedom, this is what most people want. But freedom has a name, freedom has a face. When you ask someone what they want out of this business, more than likely they will say "freedom", to do this or that. Help them nail down the name and the face. This will give them their vision! If it is a new car or new home, have them cut out a picture of it and paste it on the frig door or somewhere they will see it daily.
Stay in touch with them as often as allowable. Remind them of their dreams. Most of all, be sincere. Sure you are going to benefit. Try to put yourself in your neighbors shoes and help him see his dream, place a name on it. It may be things right now, but someday they will be bigger dreams of helping people in other ways.
Do not pre-judge anyone:
There are 4 types of people who will come into your business or
to your web pages:
This is an old one, but a good one to remember daily as you
go about this "people" business:
THERE ARE THREE KINDS OF PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD:
DID YOU KNOW?
That what we "do" is what we "believe" we
deserve.
It is the hardest thing in the world to believe that I could earn a million dollars. What can we do to get our belief system up?
DID YOU KNOW?
That 85% reach their goals because of their
attitude, 15% because of aptitude.!
Now I'm getting down to where we are living. You are what you eat! Your body and your mind!! Feed your mind positive good food, out will come a positively healthy lifestyle. Some of us have to work on this more than others. Work? Here we are back to your dreams and your belief system. Work on that dream my friend.
DID YOU KNOW?
That 43 million people have been laid off
since 1979? Do you know what $500.00 dollars to an extra
$1,000.00 a month would make in peoples lives? Think about
it. You can be a AGENT of change for them. When you focus
on helping them, your life will change, your checks will
grow. This is an awesome business!!!
Find a person in your life that you can trust. We all have
"blind spots" and it is good to have a true friend to help
you discover your weaknesses and strengths. Always be
honest, keep your word, under promise but over deliver.
Build relationships. People can feel whether you really
"care", whether you meet them in a "cold" medium like the
Internet, or if it is your neighbor.
Decide whether you want to sell products or serve people.
The latter will get you to the top of this industry!
The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude to me is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness, or skill. It will make or break a company...a church...a home. The remarkable thing is you have a choice every day regarding the attitude you will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past...we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is ten percent what happens to me and ninety percent how I react to it. And so it is with you. You are in charge of your attitude.
The moment you accept responsibility for *everything* in your life, you have the power to change it all. When you recognize the truth in this statement, and too take responsibility for that, you will see what I mean.
Whatever is before you, you have chosen. Whatever is before you, you have created. When you know and understand this fully, a new view of life can emerge - a powerful view, with no sense of victimhood.
Through each and every decision you've ever made, you've helped to create our combined reality. We each also have the power to clearly choose again if we so wish. We do this each day, but few of us realize it. You don't need a "New Years Resolution" to change your life this moment. Just simply and clearly choose today.
When you do this, you may at first feel a great deal of weight on your shoulders, but if you see it through, you will recognize a sense of freedom you've perhaps only imagined. And perhaps most importantly, commitment means continuous choosing in the same ways, over and over. Commitment is a decision.
Did you know that having a simple five-minute intimate conversation with your spouse or partner following an argument can give your immune system a boost?
In two studies, researchers measured immune system function in couples exposed to experimental conflicts, and found that the simple communicative technique enhanced immune functioning for up to 18 hours after the clash. In the couples that experienced the most discord and didn't take the time to talk it out, one or both partners showed evidence of a repressed immune system for up to 18 hours afterwards.
So, take five and smooth things over. Your body, and your partner, will thank you for it.

If you seek relief from migraine headaches, you may want to try riboflavin.
Researchers in France studied the effect of high doses of riboflavin (400 milligrams/day) on migraines. Over half of the participants taking the mega doses of riboflavin experienced at least a 50% percent reduction the number of headaches. Only 15% of those taking the placebo experienced a similar reduction. Although the recommended daily allowance for riboflavin is only about 1.5 milligrams, past studies have shown that high doses of riboflavin are not harmful.

Do you know about the latest power food to prevent osteoporosis? It's the lowly banana. Researchers at Tufts University conducted a four-year study to test the effects of various dietary components on bone mineral density in elderly people. They found that greater potassium intake was associated with the highest bone mineral density. It is thought that potassium plays a role in inhibiting the loss of calcium from bones.
Eat foods high in potassium, such as bananas and leafy green vegetables, to keep your bones strong.

The adage may be old, but modern science proves that apples can help keep the doctor away. Apples are high in fiber and rich in the powerful flavonoid quercetin. Quercetin has been found to reduce the risk of certain types of cancer and may protect the arteries and heart through its antioxidant activity. Apple juice, however, loses 80% of its quercetin in processing, so choose whole fruit over juice.
RealAge Benefit: Eating a diverse diet--including four servings of fruit per day--can make your RealAge as much as 4 years younger.

Did you know that drinking a single cup of black tea or green tea per day can cut your risk of heart attack by nearly half?
Previous studies suggested that as many as 4 cups of tea were necessary to reap similar health benefits. However, a 1999 Harvard study concluded that a single cup of tea daily reduced the chance of heart attack by 44%. The researchers investigated the association of coffee, decaffeinated coffee, and tea with heart attacks and found that tea was the only beverage that actually lowered the risk for heart attack. It is the antioxidant power of the flavonoids contained in tea that is thought to be responsible for this benefit.Take time out for tea and help keep your heart in tiptop shape.
