Dirty Little Secrets About Offline Marketing...

Here's the problem...

You can't get from point A (where you are now) to point B (where you want to go) without living through everything that's in the middle.

Everything in the middle of reaching your goal is what teaches you, gives you satisfaction, makes it a struggle, hammers you in the head, knocks you down, gets you up, moves you forward, makes it worthwhile.

You can buy all the courses you want on how to be successful from someone who already has become successful, but it won't mean a thing to you because you haven't lived their struggle. You need your own struggle...it's what teaches you to be who you want to be.

Quit thinking all the problems and struggles your hero went through are suddenly solved because you bought their course.

If anyone tells you their course or book keeps you from getting knocked down a few times or maybe even knocked out...good luck with that.

This is why so many things that are bought on how to get rich fail.

Here's the best plan I can give you...

Get a plan...start tomorrow implementing it...fail fast if you need to...learn what you need to...advice isn't bad...realize it was their struggle to succeed and not yours...yours will be totally different and you'll have your own stories to tell.

If you are afraid to go door to door or business to business, just remember there were a lot of big companies that started this way.

You can do it.

I have no doubt in my mind anyone with a real attitude of making money can make at least $100,000.00 before the year ends.

Start now.

    What are your thoughts about promotional gifts for offline marketing campaigns? I have decided to try some lapel pins for my local store as I think that people will gladly like to receive such cool small things and it will allow me to keep my customers happy. Maybe you can recommend me something on this matter too, I would appreciate some tips

    The systems to do this are already in place and working. I have seen people do this in a week, starting from virtually nothing except a dream and a burning desire to achieve it. When your "why" is clear, the "how" will appear.

      From $0 to $100k in a week, with no "how" in place prior to that?

      Is that what you are claiming?

        Absolutely. It's 99% mental, and requires massive exhaustive action, but yes it happens with some of our new people in my MLM company. I did it myself way back in the day when I first started with Amway, thanks to my "recruiting beast" mentor and sponsor. I did it again my first week when I started with my current company.

        Basically, this is a fast start blitz where we begin having our new people obtain a minimum of 100 immediate business exposures a day for 7 days. It requires contacting 1,000+ business owners or professionals daily with a quick 30 second spiel about the business opportunity (simply a yes or no response to view a recruiting video or other tool).

        Among those who follow the system with no deviation, they recruit 10-12 distributors daily on average, about 8-10 who like the products only as a retail customer, and 1-2 who are serious enough to build their business (although generally not the same way).

        The new signups and retail customers will typically order in the aggregate that week in products resulting in commissions and bonuses of right around $715 per signup for an approximate average of $100k in earnings.

          Holy Camoly!

          I'm not an MLM fan, for reasons we've discussed.

          That said, this kind of concentrated, focused effort, will jump-start any new business or cure any sales slump. It's the magic that everyone seeks but few, very few, are willing to take action on.

          It's called w-o-r-k.

            Actually, to be more precise, we call this "net w-o-r-k marketing. We don't play around - until the w-o-r-k is done.

            My recruiting beasts who complete these week-long blitzes working 10-14 hour days in my network marketing company now have as a result highly motivated teams inspired by this example of massive action and high achievement, as well as each with an average 4,000 warm leads (out of 7,000 cold contacts) to follow-up and go through.

            Just one week of such high intensity focus sets the momentum and tempo for their career in MLM as well as perhaps for their entire lives. Over the next few years these warm leads will each open up an average additional 100+ of their respective warm market or referrals for exposure to 400,000 additional warm leads.

            As I said, this is 99% mental; success is mostly just getting past all the failures. And I teach how to get past the failures extremely fast. But very few people understand the principle that success rewards boldness and speed (nor the magic of the principle of exponential leverage in MLM).

            Tragically, most people don't even have the motivation or the will to make this type of commitment. Ultimately, it really just comes down to making a choice. Most people, as Thoreau observed, choose to lead lives of quiet desperation.

            "Men are born to succeed, not to fail. ... I learned this, at least, by my experiment: that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours."
            - Henry David Thoreau
