Steps to Network Marketing Domination!
If you don't have guidance you'll spend precious time trying to figure it out. Eventually, if you stick with it, more than likely you will.
I did. I figured it out... but it was painful. And I'm sure you could spend the hundreds of hours figuring it out too... or... you could be smart and get the guidance I wish I had when I was first establishing my business.
Let me explain:
Once you get a person interested in the earning potential of NETWORK MARKETING there are a set of questions plaguing this prospect's mind.
Professional sales trainers teach "a confused prospect never buys".
Well, where does confusion come from? What causes it? Even better, how can you eliminate confusion in your prospect?
Confusion comes from unanswered questions and inaccurate information.
If you allow unanswered questions to exist in your "hot" prospect's mind, they'll never sign up as a distributor.
And, more than likely, your "hot" prospect, who's interested in the earning potential of NETWORK MARKETING has heard false horror stories or thinks this is a "pyramid scheme" that's illegal.
Obviously, you must overcome these questions and inaccurate statements before you turn this "hot" prospect into a "hot" distributor in your network.
This is the next set of problems.
Real pros - people who make "dream money" in NETWORK MARKETING - have a special skill.
It's simple to acquire. Anyone can easily get it. And they learned it in elementary school.
It's called recall.
Do you remember in elementary school where your teacher would either ask you to stand up at your desk or call you to the front of the class and ask you to "recall" information?
Doesn't matter if it was the year Columbus set foot on the shores of America or what a verb was.
You were either right... or... you were embarrassed because you didn't know the answer and you were "wrong".
As it was in elementary school, so is it with successful NETWORK MARKETING.
You either know what to say, or you lose the prospect.
You either have a creative answer to those questions that get to the core of the issue, or every new prospect you generate will walk.
Disheartening isn't it?
Well, real pros acted like little children - that's how they became real pros.
They did their homework. They spent a few moments everyday memorizing answers to all the common questions they get from "hot" prospects.
So when a prospect posed their question, they'd have a ready-made answer to deliver.
Having a great answer to a common question gives you confidence.
When you have confidence in what you're saying, you'll establish trust with your prospect.
When your prospect knows you're telling them the truth, the doubt created by the question will vanish. You'll have a convinced prospect who will become your distributor.
That's the process.
But now you have a problem. How are you going to get your hands on a list of common questions people ask about network marketing opportunities?
And, how are you going to get well crafted answers - honest answers you can stand on?
Luckily, I have the solutions!
Over the course of years, I've received dozens upon dozens of questions about how to rake in the dough in NETWORK MARKETING.
And, I'd address one or two questions during my meetings with my network members.
Over the course of two, three or four years, you could have gotten great guidance to serious problems any network marketer faces.
Of course, waiting two or more years to get it could also mean serious frustration or giving up entirely.
I reveal simple solutions to major problems and I give you great answers to common questions "hot" prospects have.
But That's Not All...
Remember when I told you that creating a successful network marketing business is a step-by-step process that needs to be solved in order?
Well, I also discuss in detail the next set of problems you'll face after you've developed a system to generate new leads and what answers to give to common questions:
The problem of managing a team of winning distributors.
If you don't master this skill, you'll never achieve your big financial dreams.
All the answers to these most common questions you must face and overcome to build your team... and... how to take the team and make them hyper-successful.
Unless you're already earning over a million dollars every year, you need this information.
Don't delay your dreams by trying to "figure it out yourself". That's a mistake in the information age.
You'll be surprised and thrilled when "hot" prospects become your next "hot" distributors.

Motivation is everything, and nothing...
I’m probably stating the obvious when I say that you can’t succeed in business without motivation.
Still, one popular network marketing guru says that's a lie - you are already motivated enough – so you don’t need to think about motivation.
The statistics don’t back that up.
Over 80% of the people involved in network marketing today don’t EVER promote their business. They don’t talk to a single prospect, place a single ad or take even the smallest step beyond joining their company.
Are we to assume these people are motivated?
Motivation by definition is all about the inner strivings of individuals that direct behavior. It’s our unsatisfied desires that create within us the motivation to act with purposeful behavior to achieve our goal.
Lack of action is evidence of a lack of motivation. Period.
The key to network marketing success lies not only in our own motivation but also in our ability to motivate others.
Maybe that’s what’s missing from the popular training formula – the focus beyond ‘why’ something isn’t working and on to ‘how’ we can make it work.
Lee Iacocca said, “Motivation is everything. You can do the work of two people, but you can't be two people. Instead, you have to inspire the next guy down the line and get him to inspire his people.”
Network marketing is a business that hinges on duplication. And no matter what your own level of success and action is, it will duplicate through your organization. Your activity (and attitude) will duplicate into an active downline.
Your inactivity (and attitude) will duplicate into an inactive downline.
One thing to remember is that duplication is never exact. Once in a while you will find someone who will outshine your level of action, but this is rare. Generally your downline organization will do less than you do. This means that if you want to increase the average level of action, you must increase your own level of action even more.
If you're trying to get your downline into action, start by looking at the motivation cycle:
First: Are you motivated to build this business and achieve your goals? If you are having trouble getting into action it's probably not actually due to external influences like lack of time, health issues or financial struggles. You might think that it is but it's not. After all, if you need an excuse not to make a phone call, listen to a training session or build your skills, you will always find one. Rather than make excuses about your inactivity, look for ways to motivate yourself to greater action. Discover a reason that will make you do what you don't want to do right now. Look for ways to stop procrastinating. Also look at what may happen if you do not take action today. If you're happy with what your life will look like in three years, chances are you'll continue to procrastinate and make excuses.
Second: Once you have yourself motivated it's time to start motivating your downline. Notice that I said 'after' - you cannot motive people if you are not motivated! Help downline find a reason in their own life that’s big enough to get them into action. This could be as simple as a pain they have right now they don’t want. Knowing the reason they joined your business is your number one tool in communicating with them. Revisit it often.
Third: Once your downline members have learned how to motivate themselves, teach them how to motivate their own people.
Becoming motivationally fit is much like becoming physically fit. Start with 10 to 15 minutes of positive thought a day. Listen or read something that is uplifting and makes you feel good about yourself and your future. The point isn't to become fit overnight, but to build a habit and make a lifestyle change. Over time you'll find your outlook becoming increasingly more positive. The result will be that you not only feel in charge of your own future, but you'll also have the power to actually take charge.

Are You a Rock and Roll Star? or do you have to work for a living?
No? No musical talent? No skill at writing hit records?
Well, are you a famous novelist?
Are you interviewed on all the television talk shows? Do publishers bid record amounts of money for the rights to your next mystery novel? And, because of your captivating writing talent, do you receive thousands of dollars in royalties from your publisher every month?
Or, do you own a couple million dollars worth of high grade stocks and bonds? And, every month do you receive a dividend check for thousands of dollars, conveniently sent to you from your broker?
Or, did you arrange to be adopted by a rich family? And did that family leave you thousands of dollars in monthly inheritance income from their many trust funds?
If you are like most people, you have to work for a living.
What's different in the above examples?
Well, if you were a successful rock star, novelist, rich investor, or lucky heir, you would receive money every month even if you didn't go to work.
What's residual income?
It's a lot different than linear income, the kind most people have. You see, linear income continues only as long as you continue the work.
- If you are a surgeon, you get paid whenever you perform a surgery. If you don't perform a surgery, you don't get paid.
- If you are a construction worker, you get paid when you work. If you decide not to work for the next 12 months, chances are your employer is not going to pay you.
- If you drive a bus, you get paid. If you quit driving buses, you don't get paid.
That's how linear income works. You receive income when you work. When you stop working, the income stops coming.
The best way to describe residual income is that when do something right just one time, you get paid over and over again for what you did.
So, you wrote a hit song ten years ago. Every time it plays on the radio somewhere in the world, you get a little royalty. Even though you completed writing your song ten years ago, every month you receive a royalty check from people who play your tune. You did it right one time, and now you collect every month.
When you wrote that hit novel five years ago, you finished your work. Now, you receive regular royalty checks from continuing sales of your book from your friendly publisher. You did it right one time, and now you collect every month.
You invested the few million dollars you had lying around in your checking account six years ago into high grade stock and bonds. Now, every month you look forward to your monthly dividend checks. You did it right one time, and now you collect every month.
You called every duke, queen, business magnate, and rich sports star twenty years ago and asked to be adopted. Finally, one accepted your proposition. Every month your inheritance check reminds you that the adoption letter campaign of twenty years ago really paid off.
You did it right one time, and now you collect every month.
Residual income sounds nice, doesn't it? Unfortunately, most people have trouble developing a residual income.
Why? We can't sing or write music. We don't have publishing contacts for our hit novel. We don't have a few million dollars sitting in our checking account waiting to be invested. And, worst of all, we can't find any rich people in failing health ready to adopt us.
However, there is hope.
There is another way to develop residual income. There's a way to get monthly checks for thousands of dollars so that we can do the things we want in life, so that we can achieve our dreams. And best of all, almost anyone can develop this residual income.
Tens of thousands of people have already developed lifelong residual incomes through the power of network marketing . . .(and the best thing is you don't have to give up your current job security to attain it!)
