    All statistics are meant to be broken; the truly wise, creative, and partially stubborn know no boundaries. Numbers are placeholders, I believe. Your 6.6 is only a holding spot until an 8.8 comes along, or a 15.5, you know?

    There's a saying in karate. Cliche as it sounds, it works. It is, "See beyond the board." When a student aims to break the board, he'll often stop at the board. Momentum is lost, thus power, and the board withstands. By aiming beyond the board, momentum will follow through and power will multiply.

    If you could imagine the 6.6 to be false, and suddenly turn into a 20%, then you'll have better success. Expectations of a given situation predict their outcome.

    Okay, enough of the motivational stuff. I treat my workers as family. I had people working for me as I took pictures of houses for a living. I had quotas, and so I placed the quotas on them. When they failed to meet those quotas, I came down hard on them and even threatened them with reprimand (which I never followed through on at the time). After awhile with no improvement, I nearly gave up. However, I one day decided to do something different. I told them, "Today, you can relax. We've met our quota for this week. It's friday. Go slow, enjoy the day." I bought them lunch, and encouraged them to have fun.

    Their productivity doubled. There was no 'board' for them to become so set upon. In enjoying their day they forgot to slack off! I continued this in the months to come and we saw drastic improvement in productivity. Our team was given an award.

    Sometimes you have to purposefully see something greater than goals or numbers or quotas. Only then will your true potential unlock.

    So, why are you pitching get rich quick/make money online stuff? Sell something real. I looked at your site - it gives the impression that you are making 50k a month. Which i doubt. So, the person coming to your site and becoming interested in your product is going to be either the newest newbie, a network marketing "junkie", or similar. This is why the numbers are so low. If you had a bunch of "real" marketers signing up for your biz opp then the numbers would go way up!

    But the problem is... Most of the guys who have been around the block a while arent interested in making a living selling pipe dreams to newbies. There are better ways to make a living online and still be able to sleep at night.

    I have recently looked at a lot of guides for making money online. Being new I was particularly impressed with one package I purchased where the creator of the package actually posted a schedule of what a person should do in an 8 hour day to make their business work. I thought that was great as sometimes the information is great but not everyone knows where to start or how to use that information they are armed with. It seems to me the more information a person can provide to someone who is looking to be successful online can make a difference in that figure you stated about how many people will follow through.

    Here is what the site says:

    "I'm not kidding...this is the FASTEST industry in the world you will find to become rich..."

    That isn't "get rich quick"?

    Really?

    And I know who Jonathan Budd is... I believe he got his start marketing "The Reverse Funnel System" which was a marketing program that cost $300 a month for a website to market Global Resorts Network which was a travel thing that they all sold. Now hes a guru in MLM. He can obviously rationalize in his head that its ok to promise people something that you know that they wont achieve and take thousands of dollars from them in the process.

    How long have you been marketing it?

      Hi Kevin,

      I watched the video, and I don't know why the headline only says $50,000 per month. At just past 2:49 into the video, we hear the following:

      "But somebody that can truthfully show you exactly how they've made millions of dollars (body language experts will note that the guy in the video can't even look into the camera at this point) in a matter of months..."
      This kind of steaming pile of stinky garbage is EXACTLY why the FTC passed the law that is being so flagrantly violated here.

      Hmm...

      All the best,
      Michael

          Thanks for setting the record straight, but please allow me to explain a few things and add some clarity to the situation...

          My experience - As you can see from my join date and number of posts, I'm new to all of this, so that is the main reason for the initial mistakes. However, I'm a bit of a perfectionist, so I've already started the process of making sure I'm writing and following proper protocol.

          My sig file - I was unaware of what is and isn't allowed in this forum and, as you can see, I've removed it for the time being and I'm talking to some folks so that I can properly apply a file that is within the parameters of the forum.

          My name - that actually is my real name; however, I do not use my first name (never have, even as a child). Everyone just calls me "Stamp" (hokey, I know, but it's a family tradition). Nice to meet you all

          My system - I've been using it part time for about two months now, and it has helped me generate three people on auto-pilot for my company. A major breakthrough? Maybe not, but you have to start somewhere, right? It has given me invaluable information in the network marketing world, and I have seen definite results. So, I'm ok with it.

          Making good money in this industry - I've been in this industry for about 7 months now, and I've seen my income steadily increase every month. I'm a very positive person, so I know that I can make a 5 figure monthly income. I try not to listen to naysayers. Call me cliché, but I believe you can accomplish anything you want if you put your mind, heart and energy into it.

          Thanks again guys for the crash course on proper etiquette and I truly wish you all the best in your endeavors.

          Have a great one!

          Stamp
          Hi Stamp,

          I wasn't sure if it was your real name or not. Having it in ALL CAPS had me leaning toward a business name; thank you for clarifying.

          I will let you in on a little secret. Part of the reason for the bluntness of my post was to see how you would respond. You'd be surprised at many guys self-destruct.

          You have stayed calm, and simply did what needed to be done.

          While I may not agree with MLM in general, and especially dislike the videos and pages I read, I am not anti-people. It wasn't personal.

          Thank you for taking the time to explain, it means a lot.

          I also understand that some of the Warrior Forum rules are less-than-obvious if not a bit confusing. Just do what you can to understand them.

          All the best,
          Michael

          p.s. Again, excellent response. Handled like a real pro!

    Everybody! Run away from this BS as quickly as you can!

    If you follow anything LM STAMPER says, you are only asking for trouble.

    They have already broken SEVERAL rules of the Warrior Forum, may not be using a real name (unless people normally call you LM), is promoting an affiliate product in the sig, is starting threads in the hopes people will click on the sig, isn't contributing anything of value to the forum, and clearly doesn't understand what the Warrior Forum is about.

    So, don't believe anything they say. There are plenty of REAL and PROVEN ways to make money and generate leads (and whatever else LM is desperately pimping) here at the WF, and the information is free, too.

    Good riddance.

    ~M

    MLM? No thanks. Doesn't really belong here, in my humble opinion.

    You've got the wrong forum, buddy!
