Making a list of friends and family didn't sound like a good idea. But I did it. I signed up one family member who quit. No friends - ever. I started talking to strangers. I hated it, but I sponsored one every 4 to 6 weeks. But I never had two people on my team at the same time in three years. The last one always quit before the next one signed up.
I went to seminars, joined different companies. I learned from each failure, but never seemed any closer to success. Then the internet appeared. MLMers from wall to wall, looking for prospects. Most potential prospects had multiple businesses - and multiple failures.
I learned to get prospects. But converting them to team members was nearly impossible.
I went into a learning and testing phase. I sponsored large numbers of people into free programs. Of course, that never made me any money. But it was a start.
Then I found the ebook, "Success In 10 Steps". I had hundreds of unread downloaded documents, but this one interested me. I printed it out and started reading. Next day, I took it to work, finished it. Every idea seemed to be opposite what I had been told. I could look at some of my previous companies and see why I had so much trouble. I read the ebook 3 times in 3 days.
Email messages got me on free training calls. I never missed a single call for months. I never said a word ... just listened.
I knew I was onto something big. From my experience, I knew the people at Mentoring For Free were telling the truth about MLM. That was good, after 25 years of failure and frustration. I used the information from the calls to evaluate network marketing companies. I googled people using the Mentoring For Free system. I found companies they may have been in and/or previous companies. I added all the other companies I knew and started evaluating.
I quickly learned to find "deal killers". Some things are so bad they can't be overcome by good things. I narrowed hundreds of companies down to five - which I compared every day for over a week. In the end, one company came up on top every time. It was so superior that there really was not a second to consider. I hope you also find a company so clearly ahead of all others that you can make the choice and never have a second thought.
Still ... could I be successful at network marketing? I joined the company. I plugged into the MentoringForFree system and got some leads. Mostly I just watched and listened ... for 11 more months. Finally, I was ready to go for it. And it worked. I grew my business fast. I sponsored as many people in a month or so as I used to sponsor in a year.
And they didn't quit. I plugged them into MentoringForFree and helped get them started. We were a team, all using the system. People just like me who had experienced failure and frustration for years were now successful.
Florida - I was the oldest daughter of 12
children. I worked a lot from the time I
was very young. But everything I made
went to support the family. Since I was
a little girl, I always wanted to be free.
Later, While raising four children of my own, I signed up with the latest, greatest, can't-fail home-based business. I had house parties and called on family members, with no results. I switched companies and tried calling Aunts, sisters and cousins to buy my weight-loss products. No success.
I got divorced. After night school, I got a lucrative corporate position in the late 1980's. But it turned out not to be the dream I wanted.
Back to Network Marketing. I studied, analyzed and joined countless programs. I was told
After 14 failed attempts, spending thousands of dollars for guru "secrets", I was pretty discouraged.
In late 2007, I ran into "Success in 10 Steps" by Michael Dlouhy. I looked at the table of contents and thought, "Huh? Where is step 1, step 2, and all the other steps?" The chapters had titles like ëYour warm market has ice in their veins," and "Give your prospects a puppy".
Oh, right, Michael. This is REALLY going to help. NOT!
A few days later, the phone rang. Michael Dlouhy himself is calling me?? Must be someone using his name. Must be a sales call. Somehow he must know I have a few dollars left on my credit card.
We talked for a few minutes. He invited me to listen in on a free training call. Weird. He never tried to close me.
He called again, a few times. I was suspicious. But still no closing. At least it didn't cost anything. And somehow he began to make sense.
He called again and tells me he knows I am quiet, need data and then more data, that I'm slow to decide, well organized, and do not like calling leads. What is this guy, a mind reader? He says, "Sarah, you're perfect to do this business just the way you are." Now he has me. But I refuse to let him know.
Next call, I break. I tell him about my 14 failed attempts, my lead buying, my collection of no's, and how all 14 uplines told me I was not working hard enough.
Michael patiently explains how to evaluate an MLM company. Bam, wow I get it! My failure in MLM really was not my fault. So I ask, "How much to continue, Michael?" I mentally brace myself for his reply. "No payments. But you have to follow our training program."
After the call, I get an e-mail with four audio links, and no place credit card numbers. I listened to the audios several times. I have a notebook full of notes. On the next call, I asked questions. Hmm. Sounds like the real deal. I start to attend the training sessions. I get addicted.
Michael calls again. Now, it's like we're old friends. He says " Sarah, Linda and I will believe in You until You believe in Yourself" The most powerful words he could have said. How did he know I did not believe in myself?"
