Mistake #7

Not understanding what
really motivates YOU!
You will quit when you don’t know your “WHY.” When you come on a stumbling block,
maybe it’s a negative in-law or something, and you have a 71% WHY, but you hit a 72%
impediment, you’re done. You are toast.
But when you have a “kick-butt” WHY out in front of you, you will never, never quit.
For complete details on how to write up that WHY, read Chapter 1 in my ebook “Success
In 10 Steps”. To get your FREE copy of “Success In 10 Steps,” click here:

Mistake #8

Ignoring Marketing Principle #1
Business models drive the behavior in the field. You cannot change the model.

You can
only work with it. If your business model creates an atmosphere of “recruit, recruit,
recruit,” you’re setting yourself up for massive failure.
Think about this. Marketing Principle #1 anywhere in the world is that a business sells
products or services for a profit. If your business earns profits by recruiting people …
who recruit people who recruit people who recruit people … THAT is not normal! THAT
is absolutely not sound marketing.

THAT will end up getting the attention of the feds.

Companies that only recruit instead of retailing products or services usually have a very
good reason. Which is, their products or services are way over-priced, so no one could
ever actually sell them. Don’t put yourself at that competitive disadvantage.

“SUCCESS IN 10 STEPS”

It’s critical. You need a strong, written “WHY”, to stick around long enough to be
successful in this business.
Listen to me. Listen to me. Listen to me!!!!!!
Maybe I’m just weird. But to me, there is NOTHING in this business more fun
and emotionally stimulating and satisfying than to poke around the dark recesses
of your psyche, spot old frustrations and vengefulness and crazed hatreds
and lustful desires and unfulfilled dreams and long-time, unachieved goals and

all that other wonderful stuff that makes us who we are …

… and then HARNESS it all to help you achieve what you most want in life!
Look. You’ve been the EFFECT of this stuff long enough. Now it’s time to turn it
around and USE IT!
In fact, a nailed “WHY” is SO powerful, and I have seen it work so BIG so many
times, that I am absolutely unable to stop myself from helping you find exactly
the “WHY” that drives YOU.
WOW! I get REALLY excited when I dig into THIS stuff!
So when you’re happy with your “WHY”, email it to me.
We’ll talk about it.
If I can help you be successful … help you harness your demons and decide to
pay the price … then I’ll feel pretty good about myself.

Some People Wear Me Out!

On the other hand, it wears me out to work with someone who quits. I take it
personally. I wonder, “What can I do so this doesn’t happen?”
The answer I get? “Make SURE they have a “WHY” … and make sure it’s a 99.9
percenter!”
What motivates you to get up off the couch? What gets you to turn the TV off?
What would motivate you to call someone who has asked for information on
your business?
So my question is,

“How motivated are you?”

Mentoring others gives my life worth and meaning. It drives me. For my
personal “WHY”, I need YOU to know how motivated you are to do
whatever it takes to be successful.
First step is to write down your “WHY.” And if you won’t pay THAT small price, I
want to know now, so I can spend my time with someone who will.

So are you motivated enough to tell me your WHY? Can I help you make the difference in your life?

Mistake #6

Going after your friends & family.

Your friends & family love you. And they want to save you from this bad thing called
MLM … and they know nothing about it.
Here’s my belief: go build your business. Talk to like-minded people, target your market,
build your business, get into positive cash, get your car allowance, whatever your
company offers … and your family will still be there. Go talk to them after you already
have built a positive cash flow.
Or talk to them about your products. Maybe you have awesome products they can buy
from your website. Do that.
But do NOT talk to them about a business! Don’t do it.
Here’s what’s magical. When you’re in positive cash, you walk differently. You talk
differently. You have this attitude, this positive-ness. And your friends & family will
want a part of that. They cannot tell you, “This doesn’t work” when it’s working. You’re
driving your new bonus car, or you won a company-paid trip to Italy, how can they tell
you it doesn’t work?

To be long-term successful, you will need a marketing system anyway. You will have to

be able to tap into the cold market anyway. So you may as well go ahead and set that up

first. Get that working, get successful, and then your friends & family will fall in line.

Let us give you the marketing system and train your team for you free!!

“ALL IN SUCCESS TEAM”

There’s a husband and wife team that was with a network marketing company

for 2 years and never sponsored anybody. We’ve been coaching them 7 or 8

months. It’s amazing. They may win the top recruiter award in their company

this year. They’re sponsoring 10 or 12 people a month.

They’ve gone from their heads to their hearts.
You’ll hear me say this a lot. Network marketing is NOT a sales business. It’s
certainly not a thinking business.
It’s a LISTENING business. It’s a TEACHING/MENTORING business. This husband
& wife aren’t selling anything. That’s not just a line. Really, they’re NOT
selling anything. Today, they are reaching their hearts out to others who need
help.
They are mentoring for free.
I exist to mentor & coach you to success. Not MY success. YOURS! Your success
is a beautiful thing to me. If I can help you create success, then my future takes
care of itself.
So my first bit of coaching is, figure out your own “WHY”. Write it down. Test it
mentally. (Will it keep you going in VERY tough times?)
More tips to help you pinpoint your “WHY”:

What does your family mean to you?

What do you want for your own personal growth?

What you want to accomplish in your lifetime?

What scares you to death?

What would it mean to you to help others change their lives?

What really excites you in life?

What REALLY makes you angry about your life?

What would you like to give the people you love most?

What really, really gets you emotional?

Mistake #5

Not targeting people who

already know & love MLM.

When you target people who don’t know anything about MLM, you’ll spend all your
time trying to build them a dream, trying to convince them, trying to get them to believe
the way you believe.
It’s kind of like religion. Let’s say you’re a Baptist and I’m a Catholic, and you want to
convert me. Well, good luck! Why try to convert somebody? Just go find somebody
who’s already in your religion, and talk to those people.
Otherwise, you’ll spend all your time trying to motivate somebody, trying to get them to
have a dream … rather than building your business. When you work with people who
don’t already understand MLM, there’s a good chance they’ll head down the road the
wrong way. Often they’ve heard bad things, and that’s all they’ll focus on.
And so you spend ALL your time trying to change that person’s mind. It’s a waste of
time. What you need to do is find somebody who already has the dream. Your life will go
a lot easier.

#2, my second “WHY”, is to feel good about myself.

This one’s very personal … just as your “WHY” should be.
My mother was a pessimist. She’d tell me, “You’re no good. You’ll never amount
to anything. You’ll never have a pot to pee in.”
But I programmed my mind to reject what she told me.
My father’s sister, my Aunt Honey, would say, “Michael, I love you. I’m proud of
you. You can do anything you want. Look at that beautiful picture you drew for
me!”
At 5 years old, I made a conscious decision that I liked my Aunt’s reality better
than I liked my mother’s reality.
So when my mother started running me down, I’d just step into the theater of
my mind. I’d picture & hear my Aunt Honey saying what a great kid I was. I’d
literally feel her hugging me. I’d stop feeling bad.

And now, to feel good about myself, I need to

be “Aunt Honey.” I MUST help people.

I told this one would be personal!!

Go Catch Some Cannonballs, Boy!

In WWII, US soldiers took the “dog tags” from the necks of their fallen brothers,
to track who didn’t make it. General George Patton used to calculate how many
dog tags it would take to win a particular battle.
Now … preserving freedom for your children, your family, your neighbors, your
countrymen … THAT is worth the ultimate sacrifice.
But when you start a networking business, they line up to take your dog tag.
Raise your hand if you’re ready to give your life to increase some general’s income.
The generals send YOU to the front line to catch the cannonballs. They hope
you’ll get a few orders before you get blown to smithereens and they have to replace
you.
Now, generals get paid pretty good. But after awhile, if you have any sense of
humanity, all those dead bodies begin to bother you.
That’s why we’ve done mentoring for free for people in ANY network
marketing company for more years than I can remember. We’ve never
charged a dime.
My credentials? Twenty-six years of hard knocks, 26 years of life lessons. Fulltime
in network marketing since 1991.
I have scars all over my body, head to toe, from life experiences in network
marketing.

I’ve seen it all. Every time a company or distributorship explodes and goes

away, it’s because of greed and ego. Beware greed & ego. Stay away.

The people we attract don’t have a greed & ego problem. They are humble people,

people who want success.

Let us help you stay clear of those cannonballs!!!!

“SUCCESS IN 10 STEPS”

Mistake #4

You’re so desperate you’ll recruit
anybody who can fog a mirror.
Network marketing is about relationships, not selling. People feel it when you treat them
as a number. When you have to build that dream for somebody who can barely fog a
mirror, you will spend all your time trying to build them a dream.
Be selective about who you want in your business. My mentor once told me never to sign
up someone unless it was someone who I’d want to go on a one-month cruise with.
THAT is a very good standard for you. Nothing drains your energy faster than trying to
help an unmotivated person build a business.
Life is just too short to waste all that effort.

SHORT SIMPLE AND EASY TO LIVE BY, ATTRACT THE PEOPLE THAT WANT TO LIVE AN EXTRAORDINARY LIFE TO YOU.

A new business is always a risk. People risk to avoid pain, or to achieve pleasure.
Answering these questions may help you find your “WHY”.
What gets you REALLY excited?
How many hours a week do you work?
What do you LOVE about your job?
What do you HATE about your job?
What do you do with your free time?
If you had 2 months vacation and all the money you wanted, what would you
do?
How do you like the people you work with?
What problem scares you to death that more money could solve?
What do you just absolutely HATE about your life that more money could solve?
If you had all the money you needed, what HUGE problem would go away?
If you had all the TIME in the world to do anything you wanted, what would you
do?
Other than money, what are you looking for?
I’ll give you a starting point.
The #1 reason I am in this business, that I’m here on this planet, is because I
LOVE my family. I want to spend more quality time with each of them. People
say, “Michael, that’s nuts. You work full-time in network marketing, you work at
home. You’re already right there.”
Yes. BUT … I treat business as business. When I’m in the office, I’m in the office.
Same as if my office was 20 miles away.
But that lets me have that time I cherish with my wife Linda, my son
Matthew, and my daughter Amanda.
I realize that many husbands and fathers rarely or never get the chance to do
the things they want with their families because of the demands on their time
from simply earning a living. Or, they don’t have the money.
For me, the rewards of MLM have allowed me to build the relationships I
cherish.
Linda & I talk a LOT. It may be serious business conversation when we’re out to
dinner, or simple, crazy, “laugh-to-tears” talks late at night. We love to drive on
the beach at Daytona, or go snorkeling at Looe Key.
Matthew & I ride motorcycles & go scuba diving. We talk about business & computers,
engines & race cars. Sometimes he even wants advice!
Amanda has a T Top Camero with a “scoop” on the hood. I taught her how to
change her oil & service it. We have long talks in the boat out on the water or
after watching a movie together. I love to hug her at the end of the day.

Life is good when you get to do the things that make life really worthwhile.

Mistake #3

Not knowing how many recruits & customers
you need to earn the income you want.

How can you set an income goal when you have no idea how many people you need on your team?

I ask people that question all the time, and most of the time, I get a blank
look. They don’t have a clue. They’ve never figured it out. But the fact is, every income
goal set by any rep with any company requires a certain number of recruits. What is that
number in YOUR company? If you don’t know the answer, you don’t have a prayer of
achieving any income goal.

I asked a guy this question recently, and he said, “Oh, I need 5,000 people to make

$10,000 a month.”

I told him that was a very quick answer. How did he know it?
“Well, we make a dollar a bottle. And everybody goes on a 2-bottle autoship, so I’ll need
5,000 people to make $10,000 a month.
How does this play in the REAL world? First of all, 5,000 people … you KNOW not
everybody will be on 2 bottles of autoship. Not everybody will be on autoship at all. So
you’ll need way more than 5,000 people in the plan. How realistic is that?
But you’ve got to know those numbers.
Lots of people set income goals, but there’s no reality to it, because they don’t go that
next step to figure out exactly how many people it will take in their organization to meet
those goals.
They don’t know if they need 1,000, 2,000, 5,000, 10,000, 100,000 … they just don’t
know. Once you know the formula, you can apply it to any goal you want. You can have
a $1,000 a week goal or a $5,000 a week goal. You just need to understand what type of
group you want to build.

Let our All In Success Team help you understand what it REALLY takes to reach your goals!!

A nailed “WHY” can save your life.

Most people have a huge problem when they decide to improve their situation in
life. That problem is one or more of the people closest to you will NOT want to
see you succeed.

This is a FACT for virtually everyone on this planet, and you are no different.

You can argue with me until you’re blue in the face, but that won’t change anything.
There are people in your life who will be threatened when you make a
passionate push to success. They will complain and criticize and try to
suck the life out of you.

Why? Because THEIR life is a mess and misery truly does love company.

Your best option is to get rid of them. Next best is to have an AMAZING “WHY”,
a 99.9% “WHY”, that will keep you going through rain, sleet, snow, flood, pestilence,
nuclear holocaust, or the criticism of a “loved” one.
So why is it critical you do THIS business? And why is it critical that you succeed?
How To Get “Staying Power”
People always tell their goals.
Fine. You need goals.
But your “WHY” is a big, big, big reason that will keep you going.
Where’s your fire? What do you LOVE? What do you HATE? What is REALLY important
to you? What do you REALLY want? What situation in life do you want to
get out of so it never ever, EVER happens again?
It’s not goals. It’s not money, either.
When I started coaching, people would write their “WHY”… usually money.
They’d need to pay a big hospital bill, or replace a car. Whatever.
But your real “WHY” is never money.
It’s about who YOU really are.
Your driving factor must be WAY more than money.
It’s something you want … or something you want to get away from. Better yet,
BOTH.

If your “WHY” is a 70% and you come up against an obstacle that’s a
72%, you’re gone. You’ll drop out, disappear.

But when your “WHY” is a 99.9%, then you’re here to stay and be successful.
Why are you on this planet? In one form or another, you’re here to change lives,
touch lives, and help people. What were you meant to do?
