MLM Training - What Should You Say If They "Don't Have The Money"

As you talk with people about your business, sooner or later a response you are going to hear is "I don't have the money".



Don't try to justify yourself  and manipulate the other person with comments like "well it's not much when you compare it with..." you're setting yourself up for rejection and failure.

Do yourself and everyone else a big favor and don't make that mistake.

I recommend you continue reading the post by Michael Oliver and discover how to address this concern so that everyone wins and you continue building your business with effortless ease.

A common response many Distributors get from the people they speak with is, “I don’t have the money”.
The standard network marketing reply that most Distributors are taught goes something like this…
“I know how you feel. Many people I first spoke with felt the same way and what they found when they started, was that it was the best thing they did….”

Or they justify it with…

“Well it’s not really much money when you compare it with starting a franchise, yadda, yadda, yadda…!”
If you use these, or any other techniques designed to justify or manipulate the other person to say or do something… I suggest you do yourself, your potential partner, and the industry a big favour… STOP! Unless of course you’re only interested in using hit or miss strategies and attracting at best about 1% of the people you talk with and upsetting the rest!

So what to do?

Well how about allowing me to ask you… Do you know what someone means when they say they don’t have the money?

I think you may find the answer is no!

People’s words, statements and questions very rarely reflect what we think they mean. To think you know otherwise puts your potential relationship severely in jeopardy.

So instead of guessing, why not ask?

MLM Training - The Worst Words To Hear In Network Marketing

The worst words to hear in network marketing are:

GROUND FLOOR OPPORTUNITY!

Over 90% of the companies that get started, don't make it 2 years. And most of the rest are gone after 5 years.

Your chances aren't much worse playing the lottery.


It's important to choose a company that has proven it will be around long-term. Pre-launch deals don't qualify. Only a very small percentage of them will last even 2 years.


Your benchmark should be at least 2 years. It takes that long to knock the cobwebs out of it. It takes 2 years to get their ducks in a row, to get their campaigns together, to get everything approved in different countries, to get warehouses built, and all that stuff.


They've already survived a lot of the normal growing pains. They have much better long-term prospects than any "pre-launch". Make them prove themselves by being around 2 years before you commit your time & money to that business.

I am being straight forward and totally honest with you.

When you hear those words "Ground floor opportunity" then take time to think about what it really means.

It means the company is NEW.  They haven't made any money yet. Noone has made any money yet. Here you join this company and telling people to sign up to lock in their position.

Bling! Bling! Lock in your position to what?

People this is hype and the worst kind because they are building up your hopes and your efforts of promoting will be wasted. Your reputation is at risk because you are promoting a business opportunity that is based on hype. You haven't earned any money and so everyone is lying that is promoting this program.

What a waste of time. Over 90% of the companies don't make 2 years. Are you getting this inside your brain.

The only way you can find a good business is to get the skills and training needed to succeed online. People are so in a hurry to earn money online, they skip the step of education and training. They end up feeling like a failure and frustrated with online marketing.  They believe that network marketing is a scam. It's not!

YOU can earn residual income when you get Free MLM Training and Home Business Mentoring and get educated first.

I am offering you that right now.

You don't have to pay any money. I am doing it for free. I have helped many people online and offline by giving them the skills and training they need to succeed. You MUST NOT skip this step.


I just want to take this minute to let you know how much I appreciate you and the support – whether it’s from purchasing a product or commenting on my blog, it means a lot to me.

So I’m ready and willing to pay it forward so you can be successful in network marketing.

Social Networking Websites- Stop building the site owners list, you'll never have residual income by doing that.

This is the finale of what started out as one single post about social networking websites. But I had to keep going because I just felt like I had to get this out of my mind and I wanted you, my loyal readers to read this. It's been just about two weeks of steady working on this. I have to say I believe this is a worth while subject to be writing about.

I believe that it will leave you with some ah ha moments, and I want you to just really think about everything that I have said. Now if this is your first time here, then you should definitely read Parts 1,2, and 3 before reading the finale. Just click here now.

I firmly believe that when you join social networking websites that your focus should be on, getting to know someone first. The only way to do that is, by checking out their profiles and finding some things that you have in common. As I said in my previous posts, these new site owners have made it all about business. They want people to refer others to join their site and pay them a commission. Most people do that and they think they are going to make BIG MONEY doing that. Little do they know, they're just spinning their wheels.

The thing that gets me about all of this is, they are trying to turn social networking into a business. It's not a business. Who will win? Only the site owners because they have built a list and you don't have a list, and you probably didn't get paid anything either. That's why I am speaking out about this because it is very important to get the word out about this. Everyone should speak out and tell the site owners to stop doing this, they make you believe that referring others will help you. That's a BIG FAT LIE. The only reason they want you to refer anyone is to add them to their list.

Look at it this way, if you refer 50 of your friends. Just say one-third decide to upgrade, okay that's about 17 people and if you're a free member and the site owner says they will pay you 10% per referrer. YOU just made a $1.70. That's not much, when you do the math. But look what has happened for the site owners. All of your 50 friends you just referred goes to their mailing list and they get to email and pitch them on what ever offer they are promoting. YOU see what I'm getting at now, where's your list? You are doing all the work promoting their site and you are not being compensated fairly at all. There list is growing and well, yours is not.

Plus you have to wait to get paid if you ever do. That's not the way social networking is supposed to be. The name "Social Networking" is self explanatory, and it's quite plain and very simple. I have a video that I want to share with you by Perry Belcher. He gives a great illustration of social networking. Please take time to look at it now.

Wasn't that a great video? I know you are having an ah ha moment, then you need to tweet this on Twitter and like this on Facebook and share this post with everyone YOU KNOW and stop this type of behavior. It's all wrong and it's not WIN-WIN for all parties involved. This is just happening to much and I can't take it anymore. Are you in with me?

I need everyone to support me, and together we can STOP site owners from doing this to social networking. Let's keep it real and make it about getting to know, like and trust someone first. Thank you for taking the time to read what I consider to be very important. This should not be taken lightly, let's do something about it now before it's too late.

Don't forget to TWEET, LIKE and SHARE THIS WITH YOUR FRIENDS.

May God bless you and let's keep social networking websites real. No time like the present. DO IT TODAY AND DO IT NOW!

Social Networking Websites - Where is the Focus?

What do I mean when I say where is the focus? Most of these social networking websites are Web 2.0 marketing. 

All that means is when you see a share button on the site, every time someone likes, comments or shares your content from their site. It's a social signal and this is a good thing to do for getting your content more exposure, in the search engines and it means more traffic to their site and your content too.

Don't get me wrong, the site owners want you to interact and meet people, but on the other hand they want you to tell others so they can join the site and then guess what happens next. They're on the site owners list now and they get to send emails to everyone who joins.

These are people you have invited/referred to their site, and then they get to promote to them about some offer they are currently marketing.

Hmmm! Isn't that what you want to happen? Did a light bulb just go off? Don't get mad, it's just how it works, but the thing that sticks in my craw.

It's the social networking groups, a few of these sites want to tell you what you can talk about in your group. Some even have the audacity to remove your post if they feel like you are promoting your business. Well what the heck are they doing when they're mailing out to people that you have referred to them.

So how does internet social networking works, YOU pay a monthly fee to come to a location everyday and the whole purpose is to be able to come their and introduce yourself, start up a conversation and if you meet a lot of people, that's interested in discussing it further then you present them with your business card (a link to your website).

Example: Let's say you got about 4 or 5 people that you're talking with, and say the owner happens to pass and sees that you are passing out your business card, and he says that's not allowed and breaks up your discussion. Is that fair? What did he just do here? He stopped you from doing what you are paying him a monthly fee to do. Social networking is like a great big meeting hall, and if the owners are going to be so controlling as to tell you what you can talk about, then why bother paying them.

That's what you're paying them to do. That's why I avoid sites that you have to pay to do social networking because you're not building your list, only the site owners. I will be writing about this some more. This has really gotten my juices flowing and it's something that should be addressed. Just something that you need to think about.

You really should give this some serious thought, and if you would like to learn how to think, not what to think. I have a video to share with you, this will help you to get rid of all the negativity that gets in your mind. If I have piqued your curiosity then I advise you to look at the video and learn how to get focused so YOU will propel your business so that you will have success in network marketing.

Building Your Network Marketing Business - How To Have Fun Doing It?

Yes, YOU can have fun building your network marketing business. If you're not then you ARE NOT doing it right!

Big statement, yeah I know.

But here's what I know and learned from experience.


It's not about having the best product, or recruiting someone in your business to get that almighty BONUS CHECK.

It's more to it then that. If you believe otherwise you are sadly mistaken. How quickly you will learn the truth when the person that joined you doesn't do anything.

This is your wake up call, LOOK AT THIS VIDEO!
When the video is over, continue reading.



While that man was in the hole, someone sent a rope down to him so he could get out of that hole. I want YOU out of the hole you're in. Your lack of success is not your fault. Here's the HOPE you need to climb out of that hole of failure in your business, and climb the ladder of SUCCESS.

Here's what happened to me in one of my network marketing companies I joined in the past. I sponsored someone into my MLM company and they were all excited because I had convinced them that they was about to make BIG MONEY when they did so.

I didn't know what was coming up for me, they got there first order in and begin using it. They didn't like it because they said it didn't help them (at the time they had a cold) so listening to me they used it to help their cold and when it didn't, all I could say was, well it worked for me continue using it. You can probably guess what happened. They didn't do anything to build their business and they quit. But we're still friends and that's a good thing. Oh by the way all I got paid was $30. But it was a good learning experience for me.

A valuable lesson that's in my story I just told: If I had known then what I know now. The results would have been different. But when you don't know, you don't know. But I have learned a many things from a FREE source that I will share with you in just a minute.

But Here's How to Get Good MLM leads:
1. Meet Prospects and have FUN doing it.

One thing I do is, when I go into the grocery store and I'm getting ready to checkout. I always get into the longest line. Why? Because most people are in a hurry and want to get out, so when a person comes up behind me I always offer them to go ahead of me as a gesture. You know what they will say next-thank you, and that will give me a chance to start up a conversation with them. I always have my business card or maybe ask them a question or something. It's up to you what you want to say.

But that is a great way to meet prospects and talk to people. Who knows where it will go, but the main thing is that you will have an opportunity to present your business card and talk to them. They will acknowledge your card, and they will either ask you for more information or say thank you. In any case, you got to share your business. See what comes out of it. If you left an impression on the person, they will remember you the next time that you see them in the store and may later decide to call you back, and they will have your business card to do so.

If I had knew years ago what I just shared with you about getting prospects, I probably would have fared a whole lot better with that person I sponsored in my other MLM company years ago. Chalk it up as a lesson well learned. It's all because I read a FREE ebook that has changed every thing for me. If you would like to get it then just simply go here and GET IT NOW!

Is This the end of McDonald's?

I received this email from a friend, thought you should know. Read it and pass it along if you want to stop them from doing this.

--------------------------------------------------

THIS IS A GOOD DECENT MAN WHO TOOK THE TIME TO WRITE THIS AND: HE SIGNED THE STATEMENT AND: INCLUDED HIS CONTACT INFO:

READ ON,

I'm sure those of you who aren't in the cattle business don't understand the issues here. But to those of us whose living depends on the cattle market, selling cattle, raising the best beef possible... This is frustrating.

This will keep us from ever stopping there again, even for a drink.

The original message is from the Texas Cattle Feeders Association

American cattle producers are very passionate about this.

McDonald's claims that there is not enough beef in the USA to support their restaurants. Well, we know that is not so. Our opinion is they are looking to save money at our expense. The sad thing of it is that the people of the USA are the ones who made McDonald's successful in the first place, but we are not good enough to provide beef.

We personally are no longer eating at McDonald's, which I am sure does not make an impact, but if we pass this around maybe there will be an impact felt.

Please pass it on. Just to add a note:

All Americans that sell cows at a livestock auction barn had to sign a paper stating that we do NOT EVER feed our cows any part of another cow. South Americans are not required to do this as of yet.

McDonald's has announced that they are going to start importing much of their beef from South America. The problem is that South Americans aren't under the same regulations as American beef producers, and the regulations they have are loosely controlled.

They can spray numerous pesticides on their pastures that have been banned here at home because of residues found in the beef. They can also use various hormones and growth regulators that we can't. The American public needs to be aware of this problem and that they may be putting themselves at risk from now on by eating at good old McDonald's.

American ranchers raise the highest quality beef in the world and this is what Americans deserve to eat. Not beef from countries where quality is loosely controlled. Therefore, I am proposing a boycott of McDonald's until they see the light.

I'm sorry but everything is not always about the bottom line, and when it comes to jeopardizing my family's health, that is where I draw the line.

I am sending this note to about thirty people. If each of you send it to at least ten more (30 x 10 = 300) ..

and those 300 send it to at least ten more (300 x 10 = 3,000) ... and so on, by the time the message reaches the sixth generation of people, we will have reached over THREE MILLION consumers!

I'll bet you didn't think you and I had that much potential, did you? Acting together we can make a difference. If this makes sense to you, please pass this message on.

Why Do Some People Succeed, While Others Never Do?

The answer is simple.

Let's call them the 3 W's.

Successful people make the effort to understand:

1. What really makes people tick.

2. What motivates them.

3. Why they makes the choices they make.

If you're in network marketing, YOU should know this.

MLM is a people business, not a sales business.

If you want to be successful, get to know a person and find out what they want, it may turn out that they don't want to be in network marketing. Whatever there reason maybe, getting to know them first, it will be revealed to you in time. You may not want them in your business if you find out what they're reason is, and maybe you can help them work through it.

The kind of person you would want to join you in your business is someone you could go on a 30 day cruise with. You wouldn't want to be on a cruise with someone who just joined your business and you didn't make the effort in getting to know them first and then you find out later on something about that person you don't like.

Build your business for success by getting to know someone first, and having a good relationship. Then in time the person you have been in a relationship with may just want to see what you do for a living and by getting to know them, you can make your decision on whether or not to present it to them based upon your relationship with them. It may turn out that your decision is not to be in business with them and just be friends. On the other hand, it could be a perfect union for both of you.

It really is very important to understand that you must make the effort to find out first.

Wouldn't life be grand if the people in the world was perfect, but it's not and you really don't want just anybody in your business.

So in finishing this up, to say that everybody is different is an understatement. We all have our strengths and we all have our weaknesses. Some people are great when talking with people, then there's the person that's not so great it.

I want to help you be a successful person.

This is the KEY FOR SUCCESS:

1. Find the right people who want to join your business.

2. People who want to make a difference in their lives, just as you are doing.

3. Your team will be strong, loyal and work with you for a lifetime.

Successful people do things in order of their importance!

If being a success is important to you, then I will be waiting right here for YOU.

I WANT SUCCESS!
