True Leaders VS. Lemmings in MLM! Plus, “Bull Frogging”

True Leaders VS. Lemmings in MLM! Plus, “Bull Frogging”

Sad, but it never ceases to amaze me how closed minded so many people are in MLM once they choose a company to promote. I will not bring up any company names, but it all started with some juice programs I saw that I wanted to compare programs with. People have a tendency to defend their choices to the point of where it truly becomes ridiculous! I have never been this way nor will I ever be this way. Leaders know that it behooves them to see what their competitors are up to to make sure their company stays on top of it to remain in the game! If not, they should consider moving & taking their downlines with them. But, this really comes back to leaders who really care about their downline’s long term success, ease of duplication, products, quality, pricing, compensation plans, their owner’s ethics, and a lot more.

We truly need to reverse the huge failure rate out there today in MLM and keep people from “Bull Frogging” to the next so called hot deal out there. Most of these types of people never make it anyway & keep looking for greener grass elsewhere. The other sad fact is that the vast majority of people are only thinking about money first & not the longevity of the company! There are way to many scams or better known as pyramid schemes out there as well! All of them end up making the big guys & owners rich at the expense of the little guys! I guess we will never be able to convince to many people that they will most likely lose in these deals, but if we can rescue some, it is better than none!

So, what is the definition of a true leader in MLM? One who does their homework, compares programs to see what will work the best for the masses! Look at companies that will have a huge retention rate for true residual income, review compensation plans to see which one is the most rewarding, products that are truly economical and have high impact on others lives to keep them as customers, and an owner who has the highest of ethics to maintain a long term company without greed taking over later! There are just a handful of companies that fit this bill!

So, what is the definition of a lemming in MLM? One who is closed minded, simply blindly follows others without any regard to longevity, and unwilling to look around them with an open mind to see if there are programs better for them & their downline! Lemmings are not leaders, but simply followers who block out everything else. They will defend their decision using illogical conclusions regardless! Lemmings do not like to feel that they made a wrong choice on the company they are in even though they know it! I know how hard it is to admit you made the wrong choice, but better now than later after you have lost it all, right?

Sometimes I have made the wrong choice too, but in almost all cases it was good to start with, then the owners got greedy & changed things later. Those of you who have been in the industry for sometime know exactly what I am talking about. Here are the typical things that happen when the owners decide to make more money off of their distributors: Product quality drops, pricing goes up, compensation plan is changed for the worse, they turn the company from a privately held one to a public one controlled by investors, they decide they no longer need distributors after you bring in numerous customers so they don’t have to pay you anymore, charge for their websites, and so much more.

Solution? Be a leader to help eliminate the huge failure rate in MLM and finally give it a good name where people will be proud to promote it as a viable way to earn from home. I know MANY people who because they have had bad experiences in MLM will never do it again & tell others the same. We can change this if we are focusing on doing what is best, not just for our sakes, but those who follow us! Stop jumping from deal to deal chasing the almighty dollar! The only true way to retire is to try & make the best choice you can now & hope it holds up long term! Look for a mentor or sponsor who has a lot of experience in MLM and one who cares about your success long term! Finally, make sure you have a true passion for what you promote or you will fail.

What is the best way to help your body stay healthy longer?

Moderate exercise is crucial, but so is eliminating chemicals from your home & body. Finally, taking supplements to compliment your health.

We all know that “stress” is one of the major causes of a weakened immune system! To help reduce stress, make yourself feel better daily to cope with stress as well as reducing your chance to get disease! Several steps are needed to accomplish this.

First: Eat good foods LOW in fat & sugar! *Organic veggies, fruits, chicken (lean), fish (some are high in Omegas too like salmon), beans, nuts, and lentils.

Second: Exercise daily, even if only moderate. If you love the water, swimming is the # 1 exercise that works on the majority of your body all at once. If you exercise indoors, an elliptical unit is extremely effective! If you jog, I suggest you run, then walk, otherwise you will put a lot of stress on your joints (from bouncing) and later you will have joint problems.

Third: Take effective vitamins & supplements that “work” To often people rely on store bought vitamins that suffer in LOW bio-availability, hence very little is absorbed. This is very difficult to research sense so many companies claim that there products are the best.

Fourth: Eliminate toxins from your home & body! Chemical buildup over time in your system weakens your immune system, hence disease has a much better chance of attacking your body. All the cleaning products, body & hair care products you buy from the store, unless it is a health food or organic store, are toxic. So, you need to find non-toxic products to eliminate these from being absorbed into your body to put a lot less stress on your immune system.

*Organic means void of pesticides, but be aware that it does not mean there are more nutrients in it! People think that just by eating organic foods that they will get all the nutrients their body needs, but this is not true! You still need to supplement in order to make sure your body gets all it needs. Why? Simple: Soil nutrient depletion due to over farming.

To Increase Your Success Working From Home, Think And Research!

What Are The Success Variables You Need To Work From Home?

Being full time at home since 1990, I have studied most all programs and their pitfalls. I have learned which products are the most viable for long term income and which compensation plans are the most rewarding for people, especially the little guy! My primary focus is to give people the proper variables to succeed at home by choosing the right company based on success variables to give them. This is the most important decision you will make and if you make the wrong one, many will suffer! I am going to get right to the point here and give people the ammunition to find the right company to make it the easiest possible to achieve success working from home! Just remember that choosing the wrong company not only wastes valuable time that is lost forever, but also may burn bridges of those who you bring with you to the wrong program! We MUST make it easy for people to promote, duplicate, and have true value in what you offer!

1] Choose a company that has at least a 5 year or more track record of success! Anything less and they will most likely fail or go out of business (over 95% fail)! Make sure their management team are true long term visionaries, not just short term money people! Do NOT join a publicly traded company or you will be at the mercy of investors who many times decide to drop distributors later for a higher profit margin! One that is privately held and plans to stay that way is the best!

2] Choose the best industry that most people want which is health and wellness! This will impact people’s lives unlike other types of programs that don’t. Programs that don’t last are telecoms, travel, affiliate types, money games, cash gifting, buying clubs, and the list is long! There is only one problem with health and wellness! If you don’t have a passion for this for you and your family, you most likely will not do well in it!

3] Choose “Value Priced Products” This is extremely important! Consider placing yourself in a customer’s shoes! Would you not only buy the product now, but will you purchase it for a long long time since it is of great value to you. Is it either saving you money or the impact on your life is well worth the cost? Way too many people buy into HYPE instead of realizing the value first! I have seen this happen in many juice and energy drink programs or those with way over priced products!

4] Choose the right compensation plan! One that rewards everyone rather than only the big recruiters and the company! I have found a properly structured Matrix Compensation Plan is the best no matter what others might say! Some Matrix Plans do not make people money until late in the game, so call me with any questions about this! The worst in order are Binaries, Breakaways, Unilevels, Hybrids, etc…They typically make the big guys rich at the expense of the little guys!

5] Choose the right sponsor! This is equally important, especially if you need upline support! If you are like me, it is very important to find someone you relate to with a lot of knowledge & time with the company. Spend a lot of time with them on the phone to make sure they are a good fit for you as well as give you total support. One of the major problems we have today is that too many people are just “recruiters” who simply throw people in a program without support and move on to let you fend for yourself! The “recruiters” simply look at large numbers of people to recruit & know that some will be able to work on their own without support. Sad, but true & many get hurt by this!

6] Research and compare! Don’t simply blindly jump into a program due to high pressure salesmen who call you to try and get you to decide right on the spot! These people know how to toss out all kinds of bells and whistles to get you to join now! If it sounds to good to be true, it is!!! One of the major problems is people think to much about easy money rather than long term income! Today, the main reason people don’t succeed is they don’t take the time to research a company and interview their sponsor. I see a lot of people go into these cash gifting programs where a lot of people get hurt since so many at the bottom never make a dime and lose their entire investment!

7] Search the company and read the posts about it! A simple google, yahoo, or other search by typing in the name of the company first, then the name followed by scam to see what people have posted about it online. Here you have the opportunity to see how other people feel about it, what their experiences have been, their longevity, more about the owners and their background, plus a lot more! Just remember this a huge business decision for life, why not make the right one first! As they say, there are NO guarantees in life, but at least you can give yourself the best chance possible to succeed at home!

8] Finally, have a system in place to build your company of choice. I use a complete software system to harvest leads FREE online based on keyword searches, a phone broadcast platform to use that is reasonable at ONLY 1.8 cents/minute, and a separate email program called Jmailer Pro. It doesn’t matter whether you are using it for MLM, home based business, or even a brick & mortar business, everyone who needs new clients can use this! Here are the 2 web sites to review.
