Don't let these converging trends overtake you or pass you by. Grab your chance to act and take advantage of the next huge business revolution. Billions are being made in the wellness industry. Legacy for Life has a proven plan to ensure you get your share.
Building Your Legacy for Life Business
So how are you going to build your Legacy for Life business? Will you pay someone for Legacy for Life leads? Will you call people who do not know you in order to build a massive downline in the Legacy for Life opportunity? Will you attempt to recruit everyone you know as a distributor? What about advertising?
If you are involved in the Legacy for Life opportunity, you have probably been advised to do all of these things to build your Legacy for Life business. How is this working for you?
When I was in the MLM game, I found that, for every 100 leads I called, maybe 1 or 2 were vaguely interested. The rest were not happy to hear from me, and many threatened or abused me on the phone. Not a great way to build a business.
And recruiting family and friends? Forget it! You will find that your family and friends are the last people who will have any confidence in you when you try to recruit them. Their answer will usually be: If you become successful then I will consider it.
As for advertising: almost impossible. The MLM companies are usually paranoid about allowing any of their distributors to advertise, especially on the internet. If you had an advertising idea, it had to be approved by the company.
Hey, I thought this was MY business!!
And when I discussed all this with my upline, the usual answer I got was: Get 100 no's and you are closer to the next yes! Just keep calling! Recruit everyone who comes within 3 feet of you (the Three Foot Rule)! Show the plan! Then show it some more!
This is a business plan?
After a while, it dawned on me that this MLM business model was severely flawed. The only thing we as distributors were taught to do was to recruit more distributors by selling them on the concept of buying from themselves and showing everyone they know how to do the same.
At first glance, it sounds good. But think about it: what we are really doing here is building a network of other salespeople who are buying the products simply to play the money game and allow them to earn commissions.
Is this a real business? What business in its right mind operates in this manner? Any real business will try to get customers to buy their products, not a platoon of salespeople. Regular customers who purchase the products simply because they like them, and have no interest in selling the products or becoming a distributor - this is what builds a real and stable business.
Yet whenever I tried to run my MLM business in this manner, my upline would put all sorts of obstacles in my way. And the company itself was no help. The message was always the same:
1) Recruit everyone you know or see as a distributor
2) Buy all our training books and tapes
3) Attend our conventions
None of this was of any benefit whatsoever in building a strong and stable business. It stands to reason that a network of salespeople will give up in disgust after a while, when all their customers are other salespeople! Unless you are really good at motivation and willing to work 24/7, you will lose money.
Another problem I found was that the company products were usually much more expensive than similar products on store shelves, which made it even more difficult to get customers anyway. The only way to sell the products was to promote the concept of buying from yourself and showing others how to do the same.
Does this sound familiar? Are you ready to give up? Have you already given up in disgust and vowed never again to venture into the MLM world? I know I did, after trying many different MLM opportunities and running into the same problem over and over.
Recently I was introduced to a new way of building an MLM business by a company that understands how a real business is built. This made so much sense that I joined up as soon as I saw it!
We do not buy leads. We do not cold call people who have no interest in starting a business.
We buy customers. Paying customers. Customers who like the products. Customers who buy the products on a regular basis. Customers that earn us commissions, for life.
We do not have to market to these customers. We do not have to follow up with them. We do not have to encourage them to buy more products. Our MLM company does all that for us. This is called co-operative marketing.
We also work together as a team to attract people who are interested in building a business. We show them a better way. And wow, are we building a big team!
It is so refreshing to talk to people who are interested and eager to start a business! The difference between how I was doing business before and how I operate now is like night and day.

2. Legacy for Life Leads Generation
Legacy for Life Leads Generation
- by Bill Brine-Lead Generation MasterAre you building a Legacy for Life business?
There are as many different reasons to be in this business as there are Legacy for Life Distributors. A Legacy for Life business can help with those tuition bills. It can help reshape your work week. It can help you build a future for your family. It's your life and Legacy for Life can help you build your own business - the way you want it.
Discover the tremendous opportunity that awaits you with Legacy's "Power of Teamwork" Compensation Plan.
Of course, to build your Legacy for Life business, you are going to have to recruit customers and distributors. How do you do that?
You will see many network marketers who try to recruit people by the use of hype rather than lead generation marketing. This is generally not considered to be a professional way of building an MLM business, and even though it works, I do not recommend doing it this way.
There are better ways to build an MLM business. But first let's talk about how NOT to do it.
1) As I said above, don't use hype. Provide prospects with the good solid information about products and services from materials provided by your MLM company. This is particularly important with Legacy for Life, where you must not make any income claims whatsoever.
2) Do not purchase leads. This is so important that I will repeat it: Do not purchase leads! This is a waste of your time and money. Unless you are a really sharp telemarketer type who excels at phone sales, you are wasting your time and money. Believe me, I've been there and it is not a rewarding experience!
3) Do not attempt to recruit everyone as a distributor. This only turns people off.
So what are the good things we can do?
1) Become an expert in your Legacy for Life business. Become familiar with all the products and services, and with the compensation plan and how that works. After all this is a business, not a hobby... You need to become knowledgeable in your business so you can talk to people about it with confidence.
2) Use the Legacy for Life products yourself so you can have a personal story to tell. Again, this gives you more confidence to recommend the products to others.
3) Concentrate on acquiring customers. NOT distributors. A business needs customers, plain and simple! do not make the mistake of assuming everyone automatically wants to start a business. 90% of the people you come in contact with will have no interest in joining your organization as a business, and in fact will be turned off by your business pitch.
4) Review the Terms and Conditions of Legacy for Life, and then start using various advertising methods that are in compliance with their terms. There are many avenues to explore here: articles, blogs, websites, and so on. An important tip to keep in mind here: no matter what you do, you will not be successful in using search engine optimization techniques to get your replicated Legacy for Life affiliate website to appear on the first page in Google. It will simply not work. If you are going to use Search Engine Optimization techniques. you must own and manage your own website.
Sure seems like a lot of work, right? Well, it is. Building a strong and stable business with walkaway income takes time, effort and patience. You will not get rich overnight, despite what you may have been told.
But there is a way to shortcut the process:
I am not involved in the Legacy for Life business, but I am building an MLM business. Here's how I do it:
I buy customers for my MLM business. I do not have to market to them. I do not have to follow up with them. I do not have to encourage them to continue buying products. My MLM company does that for me, and all I do is add more customers to my business by purchasing them on a regular basis.
Since I have a ever-growing and reliable source of income from these customers, I can concentrate solely on doing what is necessary to add new distributors by exposing like-minded entrepreneurs to this business model.
How do I do that? By working as part of a team who is building a huge organization by using internet marketing techniques and the most powerful lead generation system on the planet: Veretekk.
In this team, I only have to learn how to do one or two things. No longer do I have to know everything about everything before I can start building my MLM business. Everyone who contributes to the team will benefit from the efforts of the team.
This new business model is called Its Good Business, and it is breaking records at our parent MLM company. Many people who have never been successful elsewhere are having phenomenal success with us.

Here is just one testimonial from a recent team member. We have lots more!
-----------------
Are you worn out and tired from your MLM experience?
I know at times, I have certainly been emotionally and physically drained. It always seemed like I had to be out there recruiting every day to build my residual income. If I stopped for even a few weeks, I saw my income drop. I have been active for the past 10 years in network marketing and was actually introduced to the concept originally back in 1985. So until March of 2008, I thought I had seen all the different ways of building a home business.
When I was first introduced to Its Good Business in March of 2008 and the concept of Buying Customers, I was amazed at the simplicity. Tom Prendergast went on to explain how he was able to build his business approximately 7 years ago for a 3 month period and then had to leave it alone to work on completing Veretekk for the next 6 years. Yes, he left his business alone for 6 years. He didn't call his customers as the company looked after following up with them. Yet, his income kept going up each month. Sometimes by only a small amount, but nonetheless, it kept increasing. I don't know of any network marketing business that you could leave alone for 6 plus years and have an income afterwards.
Finally, I found a business model that made complete sense. The company operates as a traditional business, acquiring customers like any other business. However, they then allow you to buy those customers and they get placed in your data base. every time a customer orders, you make a commission. When I analyzed the business model, I realized that well over 90% of my business would be made up of paying customers and not distributors. The light bulb finally went on about why I had not had the level of success I had hoped and worked so much for during the past 10 years. I was following a business model about duplication which has a 95% failure rate in the industry.
With Its Good Business Team, we operate as a traditional business, delegating various tasks within the group, like all other successful businesses out there do. It's interesting, when you look at Network Marketing companies, they have a delegation business model themselves. They have an accounting department, customer service, training section etc. Yet, teach us the concept of duplication to build a successful business. Those companies go on to say, we should look at the successful leaders and duplicate what they are doing. Hmm? No thanks, that's a recipe for failure.
I really got it and hopefully you will take a look at what we are doing. There is no hype, lies and BS going on in this team. We use the power of Veretekk, advanced technology for marketing on the internet. We really are marketing at the speed of thought. We have broken all the records in the company we have partnered up with in 60 days.
Thank you Tom Prendergast for your leadership, vision and putting together the best team on the internet today.
Make it a great day

3. Its Good Business: A Ray of Sunshine in the MLM Industry
Its Good Business: A Ray of Sunshine in the MLM Industry
- by Bill Brine-Lead Generation MasterOnce upon a time. internet marketing was simply a way to create a home based business and make some residual income. These days, however, the internet marketing arena is filled with those who have it all and those who seem to have nothing and are continually losing money. Over and over again we hear stories of people who have had their hopes and dreams dashed, and have lost a lot of money while trying to build an online business. They have used all their retirement funds, maxed out their credit cards, and gone heavily into debt in order to chase that elusive dream of easy online profits which is promoted particularly by the Network Marketing (MLM) industry.
But there is hope. In this plethora of internet marketing hype, scams, shams, lies and greed, a ray of sunshine has recently broken through. A quiet little business is literally changing the face of how businesses are built on the internet.
Through the application of a proven and ethical business model that is offered by no other company in the world today, this business is putting an end to elitist MLM pyramid schemes which promise much and deliver only broken dreams and empty wallets. This business has found a way to generate long term residual income and wealth creation, ethically and responsibly, with no hype.
This new marketing group is simply called Its Good Business.
The model is brilliant, yet astoundingly simple: to build a business, buy customers first. Don't buy leads, don't cold call, don't try to sell the products. Buy customers who are already purchasing the products and start earning residual income from day 1.
So from day 1, your business is successful. You acquire customers who are already purchasing your products. This is the heart of Its Good Business wealth creation and long term residual income plan.
But that is only the start of the plan. Once you become part of the Its Good Business group, you will be become part of a team which works co-operatively in the areas of Search Engine Optimization (SEO) and lead generation. blogging, writing press releases, and sales. You do not have to learn how to do all of these things. Now you can concentrate your efforts in the one area in which you already have skills or which you want to develop. By working in your designated are of expertise or passion, you will benefit from the efforts of the entire team. You may get new customers from other members of the team. You will get new distributors (called Business Associates or BAs) from the efforts of the team.
Even better, Its Good Business trains their team members to become complete marketers and business entrepreneurs by providing information on how to properly use internet marketing techniques to grow any business successfully.
With this business model, you no longer have to learn how to do everything before you are successful. The team as a whole does everything that needs to be done. There is even a sales team who does nothing but provide information to interested parties and help them join the group. This eliminates the number one reason for failure of 95% of online business ventures: the new business owner is not a salesperson, hates rejection, and is frightened of that phone.
With the Its Good Business model, individuals get strategic placement based on their skills and the group's downline gets filled. No one has to purchase leads, make cold calls, or attempt to recruit everyone in sight. All you have to do is buy customers, which creates long term residual income for the life of the business relationship, and work at your designated team task or tasks.
You may think this sounds too good to be true. I know I did. But I can assure you, it is worth checking out. There is no other business model out there that works as well and as ethically as this one.
All you need to do is attend one of our weekly information sessions, given on Saturdays at 1 PM Pacific time. If that is not convenient for you, contact me and I can send you to a recorded presentation.
There will be no hype, and no-one will try to sell you anything. Just solid and proven information to help you make a decision as to whether you want to build a business this way.
You can register for our sessions and watch a short introductory flash movie at this site:
http://ItsGoodBusiness.net
Come join us, watch the presentation, and don't be shy to ask questions. We present facts, not hype.
Of course, this business may not be for you. But you won't know that for sure until you get all the details, will you?

4. Business Opportunity Lead Generation For Your Legacy for Life Business
Business Opportunity Lead Generation For Your Legacy for Life Business
- by Bill Brine-Lead Generation MasterBusiness Opportunity Lead Generation for your Legacy for Life Business - Simpler Than You Think
We all know that quality leads are the lifeblood of any business. Without a good reliable source of business leads, no business will succeed for very long.
This is especially true for those of us who are promoting business opportunities online, such as your Legacy for Life business.
As you know, Legacy for Life is a world leader in the health and wellness arena. The company has gone beyond nutrition to bring you the best, most natural health and wellness products; each uniquely designed to keep you feeling and looking your very best.
The Legacy for Life Compensation Plan rewards Distributors with one of the most lucrative plans in the global marketplace. In fact, there are 7 highly lucrative ways to earn money with Legacy for Life.
Of course, to earn in these 7 ways, you need distributors. Where do you get them from?
As I'm sure you have already experienced, generating quality leads for your Legacy for Life business can be a difficult process. How many times have you purchased leads for your Legacy for Life business, only to find out that most of these leads had no interest at all in your products or services? How many times have you purchased business opportunity leads and found that 99% of them were tired of getting business opportunity phone calls and are abusive to you when you called? How many times have you bugged your family and friends, to the point where they run the other way when they see you coming?
So what do you do?
As a Legacy for Life distributor, have you been told to purchase leads?
"Get 100 no's and you are one step closer to the next yes!"
Does this sound familiar? Are you tired of calling all those so-called quality leads and getting rejected time and time again? Have you lost family and friends due to your aggressive recruitment techniques?
Perhaps its time to consider a different approach to generating leads and building your business:
1) Buy customers to give your business a solid foundation
2) Learn how to generate your own exclusive quality leads.
Imagine the following scenario:
- To acquire customers, you simply purchase them on an regular basis from your parent company. You do not have to market to them, you do not have to follow up with them, you do not have to process their orders, you do not have to babysit them in any way. These are people who like the products, who purchase the products on a regular basis, and most likely have little or no interest in starting a home business. But that's OK, because you get commissions from their orders as long as they continue to order products. Want more customers? Just buy them!
- You work as part of a powerful team to market your business opportunity on the internet. You focus not on acquiring customers. but on getting good quality leads who are interested in joining your business as a distributor and participating in the team effort.
- Your lead generation system or your team leader notifies you that you have a new lead, and provides you with complete contact details for that lead.
- You call your new lead, and he or she is already familiar with your name and is expecting your call. In fact, you find you are talking to a lead who is interested in building a business, and is looking for some of the very products and services which you offer.
Or imagine this:
- You are notified by your lead generation system or your team leader that a new lead has come in.
- Before you get a chance to call your new lead, your new lead calls you!
Do you think this is a dream? Actually, its not!
There is a system available on the internet today that makes the above scenarios possible. I know, because I experience this daily. It sure is great to talk to leads who know I am going to call, who recognize my name and are expecting my call, and who are interested in what I have to say. No more rejection for me!
And it sure is great not to have to worry about marketing to acquire customers. All I do is buy them! I don't even have to know all that much about the products. This provides me with a growing source of reliable income while I concentrate on acquiring new business partners.
The system is called the Its Good Business model.

5. Lead Generation For Your Quixtar Business
Lead Generation For Your Quixtar Business
- by Bill Brine-Lead Generation MasterBusiness Opportunity Lead Generation for your Quixtar Business - Simpler Than You Think
We all know that quality leads are the lifeblood of any business. Without a good reliable source of business leads, no business will succeed for very long.
This is especially true for those of us who are promoting business opportunities online, such as your Quixtar business.
The Quixtar Sales and Marketing Plan is a low risk, low start-up cost business opportunity that is open to everyone. It allows you to build your business through retailing products and sponsoring other people who, in turn, can retail products and offer the business opportunity to others. By passing your sales and marketing knowledge to your developing team, you not only build your own business network but also enable others to build one of their own.
The core of the Quixtar Sales and Marketing Plan's income opportunity is the sale of quality products and services to retail customers. As your Quixtar business grows, the rewards you earn grow in proportion. The Quixtar Sales and Marketing Plan does not compensate anybody for simply recruiting others as Independent Business Owners.
Generating quality leads for your Quixtar business can be a difficult process. How many times have you purchased leads for your business, only to find out that most of these leads had no interest at all in your products or services? How many times have you purchased business opportunity leads and found that 99% of them were tired of getting business opportunity phone calls and are abusive to you when you called?
So what do you do?
As a Quixtar distributor, have you been told to purchase leads?
"Get 100 no's and you are one step closer to the next yes!"
Does this sound familiar? Are you tired of calling all those so-called quality leads and getting rejected time and time again?
Consider a different approach to generating leads and building your business:
1) Buy customers to give your business a solid foundation
2) Learn how to generate your own exclusive quality leads.
Imagine the following scenario:
- To acquire customers, you simply purchase them on an regular basis from your parent company. You do not have to market to them, you do not have to follow up with them, you do not have to process their orders, you do not have to babysit them in any way. These are people who like the products, who purchase the products on a regular basis, and most likely have little or no interest in starting a home business. But that's OK, because you get commissions from their orders. Want more customers? Just buy them!
- You work as part of a powerful team to market your business opportunity on the internet. You focus not on acquiring customers. but on getting good quality leads who are interested in joining your business as a distributor and participating in the team effort.
- Your lead generation system or your team leader notifies you that you have a new lead, and provides you with complete contact details for that lead.
- You call your new lead, and he or she is already familiar with your name and is expecting your call. In fact, you find you are talking to a lead who is interested in building a business, and is looking for some of the very products and services which you offer.
Or imagine this:
- You are notified by your lead generation system or your team leader that a new lead has come in.
- Before you get a chance to call your new lead, your new lead calls you!
Do you think this is a dream? Actually, its not!
There is a system available on the internet today that makes the above scenarios possible. I know, because I experience this daily. It sure is great to talk to leads who know I am going to call, who know a bit about me, and who are interested in what I have to say. No more rejection for me!
And it sure is great not to have to worry about marketing to acquire customers. All I do is buy them! This provides me with a growing source of reliable income while I concentrate on acquiring new business partners.

6. MLM - Truth or Fiction?
MLM - Truth or Fiction?
- by Bill Brine-Lead Generation MasterIn these day of high interest rates, high gas prices, credit crunches and job losses, more and more people are looking for alternative streams of income. Many will turn to the internet for their solution and Google terms like MLM, network marketing, home business, or other such keywords.
Mostly what they will find is a lot of sites that promise quick wealth without much work. The vast majority of such sites are promoting MLM opportunities.
These MLM companies promise quick wealth and overnight success with a minimum of effort. The concept is very attractive to those who are desperate to find alternative sources of income and who are not business savvy. Many people will put their hard-earned money and their valuable time into these opportunities, only to find out that the company is unwilling to help them build a real business, beyond selling them 'tools', which are usually motivational tapes and books designed to keep them from quitting the MLM business.
All that really happens here is that the MLM company gets richer. You see, their basic business model is flawed: all that new distributors are taught is to recruit more distributors. No-one is actually buying the products because they like the products - they are buying the products because they have to in order to qualify for commissions. And the winner: the MLM company of course!
An organization consisting of only salespeople will eventually collapse, especially when most of the 'salespeople' are incredibly uncomfortable with selling anything, as are most people who get into MLM opportunities.
Let's face it, the vast majority of us are not crack telemarketers, hate high-pressure sales tactics, and certainly do not enjoy the rejection that inevitably comes from cold-calling leads. No wonder 95% of MLM 'businesses' fail! No wonder that, if you look at the average distributor earnings as published by most MLM companies, you will see that the average earnings is only a few hundred dollars a year! And you can bet that those distributors have spent thousands of dollars on products and motivational books and tapes, and hundreds of hours being rejected, to earn those few hundred dollars...
You cannot build a business on salespeople alone. You need a stable base of customers. Customers who purchase the products on a regular basis because they like them.
I have been in many MLM businesses over the years. Why I kept coming back, I'm not sure. I guess I knew that there was something there, but I could never quite make it work. If I tried to get customers rather than distributors, my upline and the company would disown me, and sometimes put all kinds of obstacles in my way. And yet I knew, deep in my heart, that this was the proper way to build a business.
Finally I gave up in disgust, until I was introduced to the only company that does it correctly. I was extremely skeptical at first, but once I saw how it worked, I was captivated. Here at last was the correct business model.
We call it the Its Good Business model.
We don't buy leads to build our businesses. We buy customers. We don't try to recruit everyone that comes within three feet of us as a distributor. We don't need to. We only talk to business prospects that are already presold, who understand how the business works, and are ready to get started.
Our parent company is skilled in selling products to the end user, the customer, and then selling the buying customer to us, the business affiliates (BAs). Why would they do this you ask? This allows them to reduce their marketing costs and to create multiple streams of revenue at the same time. They call it Co-operative Marketing. We call it Good Business. It's a win-win situation.
As a consequence, this model has no failure rate. As soon as you sign up and buy customers, you start receiving revenue from those customers. For a one-time fee, you get commissions on their purchases for life. You don't have to market to them, you don't have to encourage them to purchase more products, you don't even have to follow up with them unless you want to. The parent company does all that.
This is the total opposite of the traditional MLM model, where 95% of people fail to build a significant income, because they are unskilled at selling, whether it be to leads or to potential business partners.
This is unique; a real paradigm shift. It requires your immediate attention. If you want to build a real business with real business people. come see us!

Quixtar Leads
- by Bill Brine-Lead Generation MasterQuixtar Leads - How Well do they work?
Are you building an Quixtar business? Quixtar is certainly a great product and a great business concept.
Quixtar is the North American version of Amway, a multi-level marketing, or network marketing company founded in 1959 by Jay Van Andel and Rich DeVos. The company's name was a contraction of "American Way." Based in Ada, Michigan, the company and family of companies under Alticor reported sales of US$7.2 billion for the year ending December 31, 2007, marking the company’s sixth straight year of growth. Its product lines include personal care products, jewelry, electronics, Nutrilite dietary supplements, water purifiers, air purifiers, insurance and cosmetics. The company conducts business through a number of affiliated companies in more than ninety countries and territories around the world. In the United States and Canada it now operates as Quixtar.
Building Your Quixtar Business
So how are you going to build your Quixtar business? Will you pay someone for Quixtar leads? Will you call people who do not know you in order to build a massive downline in the Quixtar opportunity? Will you attempt to recruit everyone you know as a distributor? What about advertising?
If you are involved in the Quixtar opportunity, you have probably been advised to do all of these things to build your Quixtar business. How is this working for you?
When I was in the MLM game, I found that, for every 100 leads I called, maybe 1 or 2 were vaguely interested. The rest were not happy to hear from me, and many threatened or abused me on the phone. Not a great way to build a business.
And recruiting family and friends? Forget it! You will find that your family and friends are the last people who will have any confidence in you when you try to recruit them. Their answer will usually be: If you become successful then I will consider it.
As for advertising: almost impossible. The MLM company was paranoid about allowing any of its distributors to advertise, especially on the internet. If you had an advertising idea, it had to be approved by the company.
Hey, I thought this was MY business!!
And when I discussed all this with my upline, the usual answer I got was: Get 100 no's and you are closer to the next yes! Just keep calling! Recruit everyone who comes within 3 feet of you (the Three Foot Rule)! Show the plan! Then show it some more!
This is a business plan?
After a while, it dawned on me that this MLM business model was severely flawed. The only thing we as distributors were taught to do was to recruit more distributors by selling them on the concept of buying from themselves and showing everyone they know how to do the same.
At first glance, it sounds good. But think about it: what we are really doing here is building a network of other salespeople who are buying the products simply to play the money game and allow them to earn commissions.
Is this a real business? What business in its right mind operates in this manner? Any real business will try to get customers to buy their products, not a platoon of salespeople. Regular customers who purchase the products simply because they like them, and have no interest in selling the products or becoming a distributor - this is what builds a real and stable business.
Yet whenever I tried to run my MLM business in this manner, my upline would put all sorts of obstacles in my way. And the company itself was no help. The message was always the same:
1) Recruit everyone you know or see as a distributor
2) Buy all our training books and tapes
3) Attend our conventions
None of these company and upline messages helped me to build a strong and stable business. It stands to reason that a network of salespeople will give up in disgust after a while, when all their customers are other salespeople! Unless you are really good at motivation and willing to work 24/7, you will lose money.
Another problem I found was that the company products were usually much more expensive than similar products on store shelves, which made it even more difficult to get customers anyway. The only way to sell the products was to promote the concept of buying from yourself and showing others how to do the same.
Does this sound familiar? Are you ready to give up? Have you already given up in disgust and vowed never again to venture into the MLM world? I know I did, after trying many different MLM opportunities and running into the same problem over and over.
Recently I was introduced to a new way of building an MLM business by a company that understands how a real business is built. This made so much sense that I joined up as soon as I saw it!
We do not buy leads. We do not cold call people who have no interest in starting a business.
We buy customers. Paying customers. Customers who like the products. Customers who buy the products on a regular basis. Customers that earn us commissions, for life.
We do not have to market to these customers. We do not have to follow up with them. We do not have to encourage them to buy more products. Our MLM company does all that for us. This is called co-operative marketing.
We also work together as a team to attract people who are interested in building a business. We show them a better way. And wow, are we building a big team!
It is so refreshing to talk to people who are interested and eager to start a business! The difference between how I was doing business before and how I operate now is like night and day.

8. Quixtar Leads Generation
Quixtar Leads Generation
- by Bill Brine-Lead Generation MasterAre you building a Quixtar business?
There are as many different reasons to be in this business as there are Quixtar® Independent Business Owners (IBOs). A Quixtar business can help with those tuition bills. It can help reshape your work week. It can help you build a future for your family. It's your life and Quixtar North America, part of the Amway global business, can help you build your own business - the way you want it.
But if you want to build your Quixtar business, you are going to have to recruit customers and distributors. How do you do that?
You will see many network marketers who try to recruit people by the use of hype rather than lead generation marketing. This is generally not considered to be a professional way of building an MLM business, and even though it works, I do not recommend doing it this way.
There are better ways to build an MLM business. But first let's talk about how NOT to do it.
1) As I said above, don't use hype. Provide prospects with the good solid information about products and services from materials provided by your MLM company. This is particularly important with Quixtar, where you must not make any income claims whatsoever.
2) Do not purchase leads. This is so important that I will repeat it: Do not purchase leads! This is a waste of your time and money. Unless you are a really sharp telemarketer type who excels at phone sales, you are wasting your time and money. Believe me, I've been there and it is not a rewarding experience!
3) Do not attempt to recruit everyone as a distributor. This only turns people off.
So what are the good things we can do?
1) Become an expert in your Quixtar business. Become familiar with all the products and services, and with the compensation plan and how that works. After all this is a business, not a hobby... You need to become knowledgeable in your business so you can talk to people about it with confidence.
2) Use the Quixtar products yourself so you can have a personal story to tell. Again, this gives you more confidence to recommend the products to others.
3) Concentrate on acquiring customers. NOT distributors. A business needs customers, plain and simple! do not make the mistake of assuming everyone automatically wants to start a business. 90% of the people you come in contact with will have no interest in joining your organization as a business, and in fact will be turned off by your business pitch.
4) Review the Terms and Conditions of Quixtar, and then start using various advertising methods that are in compliance with their terms. There are many avenues to explore here: articles, blogs, websites, and so on. An important tip to keep in mind here: no matter what you do, you will not be successful in using search engine optimization techniques to get your replicated Quixtar affiliate website to appear on the first page in Google. It will simply not work. If you are going to use Search Engine Optimization techniques. you must own and manage your own website.
Sure seems like a lot of work, right? Well, it is. Building a strong and stable business with walkaway income takes time, effort and patience. You will not get rich overnight, despite what you may have been told.
But there is a way to shortcut the process:
I am not involved in the Quixtar business, but I am building an MLM business. Here's how I do it:
I buy customers for my MLM business. I do not have to market to them. I do not have to follow up with them. I do not have to encourage them to continue buying products. My MLM company does that for me, and all I do is add more customers to my business by purchasing them on a regular basis.
Since I have a ever-growing and reliable source of income from these customers, I can concentrate solely on doing what is necessary to add new distributors by exposing like-minded entrepreneurs to this business model.
How do I do that? By working as part of a team who is building a huge organization by using internet marketing techniques and the most powerful lead generation system on the planet: Veretekk.
In this team, I only have to learn how to do one or two things. No longer do I have to know everything about everything before I can start building my MLM business. Everyone who contributes to the team will benefit from the efforts of the team.
This new business model is called Its Good Business, and it is breaking records at our parent MLM company. Many people who have never been successful elsewhere are having phenomenal success with us.

Here is just one testimonial from a recent team member. We have lots more!
-----------------
Not only am I an MLM junkie, but I am guilty of joining more sites and opportunities online than I care to admit to. I haven't dared to add up the total amount of money I have spent online over the last 18 months, some large amounts and lots and lots of small amounts on this and that. None of these things offered me the answer I was looking for, and so I kept searching and spending.
I am not one for giving up and my positive resolve to be successful online and find that perfect business opportunity kept me searching ever onwards.
Just three weeks ago I was sent a presentation by an online friend. That presentation has changed my life. While I was watching it I knew I had stumbled upon the Holy Grail, the answer I had been looking for, and although the cost to join was far more than I could really afford I knew that I had to make that commitment there and then.
Buy Customers Not Leads, was music to my ears. I had had my fair share of cold calling and the negativity that brings and so to think that my money would be wisely spent on buying customers made a lot of sense to me. I was also delighted to learn that part of the deal was using Veretekk to promote the business. Although I had not fully utilized Veretekk in the past I was very aware that it had great potential as a marketing tool and I was eager to get to know how to use it to best advantage.
I have to say that so far I have not been disappointed. The training and support are first class and I am thoroughly enjoying all I am doing and all I am learning. The approach to the business has a simplicity about it that is very appealing.
I am also delighted to be part of such a professional team. The potential here is quite mind blowing and I have no doubt that I am in the process of building the foundations for something really big.
Tom Prendergast and Butch Hamilton are 3 steps ahead of the game and I would like to personally thank them for all they are doing to master mind this team. It is a privilege to be a part of it.
Its Good Business is the best opportunity I will ever have and I intend to do all it takes to make it work.
Thank you

9. The Evolution of Lead Generation Techniques
The Evolution of Lead Generation Techniques
- by Bill Brine-Lead Generation Master
As a Lead Generation master, I keep my eye on the lead generation business. A recent news article caught my eye this morning.According to the CEO of a company called Incisive Media, online marketing specialists will have to turn more and more to new methods of lead generation to keep up with developments in the media industry and to stay on top of new models of marketing.
His company's approach is to build an online lead generation engine, where the company offers leading content in the form of whitepapers and webinars. People are allowed to gain free access in return for their contact details.
Hmmm - so what's so new about this? It is still basically the same process - offer something for free in return for contact details, which are then sold or resold. All that has changed is the free stuff! And not only that, but his company charges up to $100 per lead!
Veretekk has been doing this for years, with the added benefit that the contact details are made available only to the Veretekk system owner. Not only that, but the method used to sign up for the free service ensures that the Veretekk system owner's name is exposed to the prospective customer, so that he or she will already be familiar with that name when he or she is contacted by the Veretekk system owner.
And with a Veretekk system, you pay a low fee once a month to generate all the leads you want. Now that is a great deal!
Couple that with the Its Good Business model of buying customers to provide a solid income foundation for your business, and you can't lose.
If you are sick and tired of buying worthless leads, getting rejected by all the leads you call, and losing money on leads purchases, come see us at Its Good Business.
http://ItsGoodBusiness.net
We can show you how to escape all that drudgery and frustration and build a strong and stable business.

10. Business Opportunity Lead Generation For Your Quixtar Business
Business Opportunity Lead Generation For Your Quixtar Business
- by Bill Brine-Lead Generation MasterBusiness Opportunity Lead Generation for your Quixtar Business - Simpler Than You Think
We all know that quality leads are the lifeblood of any business. Without a good reliable source of business leads, no business will succeed for very long.
This is especially true for those of us who are promoting business opportunities online, such as your Quixtar business.
The Quixtar Sales and Marketing Plan is a low risk, low start-up cost business opportunity that is open to everyone. It allows you to build your business through retailing products and sponsoring other people who, in turn, can retail products and offer the business opportunity to others. By passing your sales and marketing knowledge to your developing team, you not only build your own business network but also enable others to build one of their own.
The core of the Quixtar Sales and Marketing Plan's income opportunity is the sale of quality products and services to retail customers. As your Quixtar business grows, the rewards you earn grow in proportion. The Quixtar Sales and Marketing Plan does not compensate anybody for simply recruiting others as Independent Business Owners.
Generating quality leads for your Quixtar business can be a difficult process. How many times have you purchased leads for your business, only to find out that most of these leads had no interest at all in your products or services? How many times have you purchased business opportunity leads and found that 99% of them were tired of getting business opportunity phone calls and are abusive to you when you called?
So what do you do?
As a Quixtar distributor, have you been told to purchase leads?
"Get 100 no's and you are one step closer to the next yes!"
Does this sound familiar? Are you tired of calling all those so-called quality leads and getting rejected time and time again?
Consider a different approach to generating leads and building your business:
1) Buy customers to give your business a solid foundation
2) Learn how to generate your own exclusive quality leads.
Imagine the following scenario:
- To acquire customers, you simply purchase them on an regular basis from your parent company. You do not have to market to them, you do not have to follow up with them, you do not have to process their orders, you do not have to babysit them in any way. These are people who like the products, who purchase the products on a regular basis, and most likely have little or no interest in starting a home business. But that's OK, because you get commissions from their orders. Want more customers? Just buy them!
- You work as part of a powerful team to market your business opportunity on the internet. You focus not on acquiring customers. but on getting good quality leads who are interested in joining your business as a distributor and participating in the team effort.
- Your lead generation system or your team leader notifies you that you have a new lead, and provides you with complete contact details for that lead.
- You call your new lead, and he or she is already familiar with your name and is expecting your call. In fact, you find you are talking to a lead who is interested in building a business, and is looking for some of the very products and services which you offer.
Or imagine this:
- You are notified by your lead generation system or your team leader that a new lead has come in.
- Before you get a chance to call your new lead, your new lead calls you!
Do you think this is a dream? Actually, its not!
There is a system available on the internet today that makes the above scenarios possible. I know, because I experience this daily. It sure is great to talk to leads who know I am going to call, who recognize my name and are expecting my call, and who are interested in what I have to say. No more rejection for me!
And it sure is great not to have to worry about marketing to acquire customers. All I do is buy them! This provides me with a growing source of reliable income while I concentrate on acquiring new business partners.
The system is called the Its Good Business model.

11. The Quixtar Business Opportunity
The Quixtar Business Opportunity
- by Bill Brine-Lead Generation MasterLooking to build a business online? Have you seen the Quixtar opportunity yet? Here is some introductory information from their website:
What do you want out of life? There are as many different reasons to be in this business as there are Quixtar® Independent Business Owners (IBOs). A Quixtar business can help with those tuition bills. It can help reshape your work week. It can help you build a future for your family. It's your life and Quixtar North America, part of the Amway global business, can help you build your own business - the way you want it.
Back in the 1950s, Rich DeVos and Jay Van Andel were sales reps for a vitamin company called Nutrilite®. They envisioned an even better sales and marketing plan, however, and created a little company called Amway to set it into motion. Working with a core group of Independent Business Owners (IBOs), they provided a new opportunity to people in the U.S., Canada, and, today, more than 3 million entrepreneurs around the world.
In 1999, Quixtar was launched to combine the best aspects of Amway with the power and convenience of the internet. Three years later it became the company's exclusive opportunity in those markets. Now, Quixtar North America is making a transition to the Amway Global brand to leverage the power of the $6.8-billion business Rich and Jay built.
This business opportunity features:
- An industry-leading compensation plan.
- High-quality products.
- Experienced support from an industry leader.
- The community and support you receive from other IBOs.
Quixtar is the number-one online retailer in the Health & Beauty category based on sales, and 22nd among all e-commerce sites, according to Internet Retailer magazine's "Top 500 Guide."
People who register with Quixtar today become Quixtar® IBOs. By 2009, following unprecedented improvements to all aspects of the business opportunity, the rebranding of this business to better align with the global Amway® brand will be complete.

Amway is a global leader in direct selling, with over three million Independent Business Owners (IBOs) in over 80 countries and territories around the world. No other direct selling company can compare with our longevity, stability, and global reach.
For more than 45 years, Amway Corporation has enabled people to have a business of their own. Originally known for direct selling of our household cleaning products, such as SA8 Laundry Detergent and L.O.C. Liquid Organic Concentrate, our business opportunity is now supported by an excellent portfolio of hundreds of high-quality products and brands that can only be purchased through our IBOs.

Here is just one testimonial from a recent team member. We have lots more!
-----------------
After spending a decade struggling with starting and running 3 businesses, I was ready for a change. Let's face it, dealing with all the issues that come up everyday (employees, payroll, permits, sales etc.) is enough to drive anyone nuts.
I was introduced to mlm about 9 years ago and I loved the idea of leverage and residual income. Isn't that the goal that all of us would like to achieve? The problem I have had with the industry has been bothering my friends and family, buying expensive leads, standing at street corners handing out flyers and all the other crap they tell us to do to be successful.
Come on, even if I had the time and money to do this - how many other people would be willing to do this on a daily basis. As I found out, not too many.
I have been left bruised, battered and a little cynical with the industry.
This all changed in April 2008. This was when I was introduced to http://ItsGoodBusiness.net and the concept of Buying Customers. Instead of begging family and friends to try the products, I buy customers and let the company market to them. What a concept. My business will be made up of primarily paying customers not distributors that I need to train and motivate. Plus the selling and questions from my customers are taken care of by the company. Every time a customer orders, I make a commission.
I have been equally impressed with the marketing plan that Tom Prendergast has created. I have always been looking for a way to utilize the Internet. The power and leverage that the Internet provides the average person to succeed is unparalleled. Tom has developed a way to harness that power and leverage with his Its Good Business team. The team operates like a traditional business by delegating various tasks within the group instead duplication.
Tom and the other successful Internet marketers on the team have been very supportive and willing to teach what they know to be successful online. This supportive team atmosphere at Its Good Business has been refreshing. I'm learning and having fun everyday. The lessons on how to market on the Internet have been very valuable plus I'm getting paid while I learn.
The team has broken all the records in the company we have partnered up with in 60 days with the Its Good Business marketing plan. I can't wait to see where we'll be in the next 60 days.
Thank you Tom and the IGB team for letting me be a part of something so special.

14. Lead Generation For Your Amway Business
Lead Generation For Your Amway Business
- by Bill Brine-Lead Generation MasterBusiness Opportunity Lead Generation for your Amway Business - Simpler Than You Think
We all know that quality leads are the lifeblood of any business. Without a good reliable source of business leads, no business will succeed for very long.
This is especially true for those of us who are promoting business opportunities online, such as your Amway business.
The Amway Sales and Marketing Plan is a low risk, low start-up cost business opportunity that is open to everyone. It allows you to build your business through retailing products and sponsoring other people who, in turn, can retail products and offer the business opportunity to others. By passing your sales and marketing knowledge to your developing team, you not only build your own business network but also enable others to build one of their own.
The core of the Amway Sales and Marketing Plan's income opportunity is the sale of quality products and services to retail customers. As your Amway business grows, the rewards you earn grow in proportion. The Amway Sales and Marketing Plan does not compensate anybody for simply recruiting others as Independent Business Owners.
Generating quality leads for your Amway business can be a difficult process. How many times have you purchased leads for your business, only to find out that most of these leads had no interest at all in your products or services? How many times have you purchased business opportunity leads and found that 99% of them were tired of getting business opportunity phone calls and are abusive to you when you called?
So what do you do?
As a Amway distributor, have you been told to purchase leads?
"Get 100 no's and you are one step closer to the next yes!"
Does this sound familiar? Are you tired of calling all those so-called quality leads and getting rejected time and time again?
Consider a different approach to generating leads and building your business:
1) Buy customers to give your business a solid foundation
2) Learn how to generate your own exclusive quality leads.
Imagine the following scenario:
- To acquire customers, you simply purchase them on an regular basis from your parent company. You do not have to market to them, you do not have to follow up with them, you do not have to process their orders, you do not have to babysit them in any way. These are people who like the products, who purchase the products on a regular basis, and most likely have little or no interest in starting a home business. But that's OK, because you get commissions from their orders. Want more customers? Just buy them!
- You work as part of a powerful team to market your business opportunity on the internet. You focus not on acquiring customers. but on getting good quality leads who are interested in joining your business as a distributor and participating in the team effort.
- Your lead generation system or your team leader notifies you that you have a new lead, and provides you with complete contact details for that lead.
- You call your new lead, and he or she is already familiar with your name and is expecting your call. In fact, you find you are talking to a lead who is interested in building a business, and is looking for some of the very products and services which you offer.
Or imagine this:
- You are notified by your lead generation system or your team leader that a new lead has come in.
- Before you get a chance to call your new lead, your new lead calls you!
Do you think this is a dream? Actually, its not!
There is a system available on the internet today that makes the above scenarios possible. I know, because I experience this daily. It sure is great to talk to leads who know I am going to call, who know a bit about me, and who are interested in what I have to say. No more rejection for me!
And it sure is great not to have to worry about marketing to acquire customers. All I do is buy them! This provides me with a growing source of reliable income while I concentrate on acquiring new business partners.
The system is called the Its Good Business model.

15. The Lead Generation Process
The Lead Generation Process
- by Bill Brine-Lead Generation MasterHave you ever purchased leads for your business? Did you ever wonder how these leads were generated and why they are typically so unresponsive? Have you spent lots of money on purchased leads, only to find that a very small percentage of these leads are interested?
The process of lead generation is actually very simple: offer someone a useful product or service in exchange for their contact information and permission to contact them. Then, you start sending them your marketing information. Or, if you are in the lead generation business, you will resell that contact information to companies who are willing to pay for fresh leads in whatever market you are targeting.
In many cases, the companies that do this sort of thing are bringing in a broad spectrum of leads that are not really all that interested in the offers that come their way. These leads just wanted to get something for free.
This is especially true in the home business industry. There are tons of lead generation sites out there that give away free stuff, and usually there will be a checkbox on the page (already checked off) that indicates that the person filling out the form would like to receive information on starting a home business, when all the person really wanted was the free stuff. Then the contact information is resold many times over. The result? The lead gets all kinds of phone calls from people he or she never heard of, trying to recruit them for many different kinds of business opportunities. No wonder these kinds of leads are almost worthless!
Now of course you can increase the quality of the leads by giving more targeted free stuff. Some lead generation companies all also 'survey' the leads by phone to further qualify them. These types of leads are of better quality, and of course are more expensive. But you still run into the same problem - when you call they have never heard of you and so are hesitant to enter into any sort of discussion. Unless you are a master closer you will experience a lot of frustration and rejection.
So what's the solution?
How about a completely new approach: instead of beating your head against a brick wall and sinking thousands of dollars and hours of time into worthless leads, why not buy actual customers for your business?
You don't have to market to them, you don't have to contact them, you don't even have to encourage them to buy products. They already are buying products, and all you do is purchase the lifetime rights to earn commissions on their purchases.
Doesn't this sound like a better solution to building a business?
Come see us at
http://ItsGoodBusiness.net
and we'll show you how it is done. No obligation, serious business builders only!

16. Business Opportunity Lead Generation
Business Opportunity Lead Generation
- by Bill Brine-Lead Generation MasterWould you like to know the secret to generating the best leads for your business?
There is lots of information, tools and software promotions online lately that promise to teach you the secret of generating good quality business opportunity leads.
What is this secret anyway? Is there really a secret?
Think about this for a second: if you were privy to a great secret that no-one else knew, and that was making you a lot of money, would you sell it to other people? Or would you continue to exploit it and continue pulling in all that cash? I know which one I would do!
There is no real secret. What there is, is knowledge or an idea which you yourself have not yet come across.
Do you want to generate quality leads for your business? Sure, there are great online systems that can help. But do not rely solely on such online tools. The process of generating leads, like any other discipline, is hard work. Automation helps, but personal effort is the real key.
The real secret to lead generation, is to establish yourself as an expert in your selected niche, and then to tell people about it!
Study leading sites in the niche you have chosen and get information and ideas from them. Learn all you can about your business and the niche you have chosen, and write about it. Issue Press Releases whenever something happens in your business. Write Ezine articles about your business. Set up a blog. Write, write, write and do it consistently! And never stop studying your niche. Become an expert!
And. most importantly, ensure that your name and contact details are included in everything you write, and that you state clearly that you are an expert in the niche you have chosen.
For example, look at my byline at the top of this article. My chosen niche is Business Opportunity Lead Generation. And so, I tag everything I write with the tag Bill Brine-Lead Generation Master.
Continue this consistently, day after day, and eventually your name will become associated with the keyword phrases you have chosen on the internet. People will start to view you as an specialist in your chosen market. When that happens, leads will start to call you!
And when that happens, your income will start to skyrocket.
Now, this will take time and effort on your part. But keep in mind that, if you work at this consistently, you will be far ahead of most other online business owners who are not willing to put in the time and effort required.
Be consistent. Be focused. Become the expert, and you will build a popular business!
Of course, while you are working at branding your name in this manner, it would be good to be able to bring in some income...
Here's what I do: I buy customers! That is what we do over at Its Good Business. We do not buy leads. We buy customers to provide a solid reliable source of income for our businesses. Our lead generation is focused solely on attracting business-minded people who want to become our business partners in this new business model We do not need to convert leads into customers. Because of the manner in which we generate our business opportunity leads, we do not have to work very hard to convince people to join our businesses. By the time we talk to them, they have already sold themselves.
I can tell you from personal experience, this approach sure takes away a lot of the pressure, stress and frustration associated with building a business on the internet.

and we will show you how it is done.

17. Business Opportunity Lead Generation and the Veretekk Platinum Control Panel
Business Opportunity Lead Generation and the Veretekk Platinum Control Panel
- by Bill Brine-Lead Generation MasterThose of you who have seen my articles before know that I am a fan of the Veretekk Marketing System. This system, which has always been very powerful, has now reached a whole new level of power with the release of the new Platinum Control Panel.
The Veretekk Platinum Control Panel is an integrated management system. It allows you the ability to configure all of your Veretekk Gold System portals, all 41 of them, from on central control panel. If you have more than one Veretekk Gold system, as you should if you intend to dominate the search engines, then you no longer have to log into each system and manually configure the system to target your select keyword phrases.
If you have not yet configured a Veretekk system, you may not realize the importance of having this function. Veretekk configuration is a time consuming process. It would try the patience of Job. I know, as I have configured a few of these systems for myself. Sitting in front of my PC, and having to click to add the title, meta tag and keywords, is a mundane, repetitive task, but it is essential to get your systems configured properly. This is how you dominate the search engines for your selected keyword phrases.
The Veretekk Platinum Control Panel allows you to do this process very quickly. This makes it extremely useful, especially if you have multiple Gold Accounts, which I highly recommend. Having this type of promotion tool working with your other online promotions boosts not only your URLs, but also your name recognition on the search engines.
Do it from one central place, daisy chain all the systems together (also automatic), submit one site to Google and you're done!
This frees up your time to attend to the most important element in marketing successfully on Google: writing keyword specific content. Keyword rich content is the key to marketing successfully on Google. Google is about one thing: good and relevant information. When you place benefits and solutions information on Google, in the right keyword specific manner, you will get visitors to view your information. The Veretekk Platinum Control Panel will allow you much more time freedom to pursue your writing routine.
The Veretekk Control Panel is all this and more, but let's talk about what it is not. This business management system will not make you rich quick. This system will not make you wealthy for no effort. If you think that you can simply come in here, spend $2970 for the beta version, and gain instant notoriety and presence on Google for no effort, then you will be sadly disappointed. There is absolutely nothing that can make you money instantly online. It all requires work, effort, consistency and writing good content. When you get out of the get-rich-quick mentality and start thinking as a business person, you stand a very good chance of making money.
In my professional opinion, the Veretekk Platinum Control Panel should be made a part of your marketing routine. It will supercharge your online efforts with a very compact and simple to use business system that will allow you to get your sites listed on the top of Google, Yahoo, MSN and all the other major search engines. I would highly recommend this service to anyone wishing to improve your online business.
Multiple Veretekk systems and the new Platinum Control Panel are a very important part of our strategy at Its Good Business. The new control panel makes it much easier for team leaders to get new business associates up to speed very quickly on what they need to do to contribute to the team.
Our strategy is simple at Its Good Business: we buy customers for our businesses. We do not purchase leads. We do not cold call anyone. And we use the power of the Veretekk system, now enhanced with the new Platinum Control Panel, to drive massive traffic to our main presentation site, from an ever-growing list of keyword categories and phrases.
Come join us as we make online business history!

Building Your Avon Business
So how are you going to build your Avon business? Will you pay someone for Avon leads? Will you call people who do not know you in order to build a massive downline in the Avon opportunity? Will you attempt to recruit everyone you know as a distributor? What about advertising?
If you are involved in the Avon opportunity, you have probably been advised to do all of these things to build your Avon business. How is this working for you?
When I was in the Network Marketing game, I found that, for every 100 leads I called, maybe 1 or 2 were vaguely interested. The rest were not happy to hear from me, and many threatened or abused me on the phone. Not a great way to build a business.
And recruiting family and friends? Forget it! You will find that your family and friends are the last people who will have any confidence in you when you try to recruit them. Their answer will usually be: If you become successful then I will consider it.
As for advertising: almost impossible. The Network Marketing company was paranoid about allowing any of its distributors to advertise, especially on the internet. If you had an advertising idea, it had to be approved by the company.
Hey, I thought this was MY business!!
And when I discussed all this with my upline, the usual answer I got was: Get 100 no's and you are closer to the next yes! Just keep calling! Recruit everyone who comes within 3 feet of you (the Three Foot Rule)! Show the plan! Then show it some more!
This is a business plan?
After a while, it dawned on me that this Network Marketing business model was severely flawed. The only thing we as distributors were taught to do was to recruit more distributors by selling them on the concept of buying from themselves and showing everyone they know how to do the same.
At first glance, it sounds good. But think about it: what we are really doing here is building a network of other salespeople who are buying the products simply to play the money game and allow them to earn commissions.
Is this a real business? What business in its right mind operates in this manner? Any real business will try to get customers to buy their products, not a platoon of salespeople. Regular customers who purchase the products simply because they like them, and have no interest in selling the products or becoming a distributor - this is what builds a real and stable business.
Yet whenever I tried to run my Network Marketing business in this manner, my upline would put all sorts of obstacles in my way. And the company itself was no help. The message was always the same:
1) Recruit everyone you know or see as a distributor
2) Buy all our training books and tapes
3) Attend our conventions
4) Buy more product to qualify for this special deal
The last point was a particular favorite of mine. I remember a so-called special promotion once, whereby we were told that if we doubled our product orders for 6 months we would get some special reward at the next convention. Having dutifully done that, I attended the convention. Sure enough, all of us who qualified were told to stay around after the main presentations were over for the day. I was excited! And the big reward? We got to shake the hands of our upline diamond! What a
