It seems that daily I encounter a new sales person who has just started with the best company in the world. Their company has a compensation plan that is the best in the industry, their products/service are second to none and they are EXCITED!
Because I invest a considerable amount of time in various networking events this often happens when I am meeting these people in person for the first time. However, the same holds true for the Internet. Being separated by several thousand miles of Internet is not going to discourage this new and excited business owner.
While I stress the importance of

In working with a new business associate today we went through many of the questions that I always seemed to get when trying to help someone new to network marketing get off to a great start. For any of you that have been in network marketing for any amount of time you know exactly what I am talking about. You have someone new to your business that you want to get started on the right foot, they are excited about the possibilities that their future holds and they know next to nothing about their new business.
To complicate matters, many of these newbie’s have

For any of you that follow my ranting you obviously will know that in the past few days I was addressing the myths surrounding MLM and the Network Marketing industry. As a result of that writing and some discussions I have had with business partners since that writing, I felt compelled to address one of my all time favorites: The claims that I am involved in a Pyramid Scheme.

Everyone that I have ever met that just started with a new MLM business opportunity was excited and ready to take on the world. Then something happens to take the wind out of their sales and their ship to financial independence begins to sink. What happened to all of the excitement, drive and willingness to take on the world? I can tell two of the most damaging things that can happen to a new MLM business builder.

To succeed in MLM, you must be able to find and close a sufficient number of qualified prospects. The lack of that single activity is the biggest reason a large majority of the people in an MLM business will not make the money that they could. The reason they fail is that most of the presentations they make are with unqualified prospects (friends, family, etc) who cannot be closed. To make matters worse,

Yesterday, I was blessed to be able to speak with a group of network marketers that were attending a presentation put together by a friend of mine. While the point of my input was focused on marketing of their business and more specifically tapping into the power of social media, it got me to thinking.
