Is Your Company A 5 Pillar Company? Part 2

Has the company passed the "early failure" Time Line?? Are the companies products Products timed with the beginning of a massive trend in consumer demand??


Beware of "ground floor opportunities" and start-up companies. There should be no rush to get in on the "ground floor".

Ninety-nine percent of companies don't last two years. If a company is good today, it will be great tomorrow.

MOST people don't make money in the first two years while the company is dealing with start-up issues. And note I said MOST people, not the Heavy Hitters.

Profit comes after two years, join then.

Avoid the companies that have gone on beyond their "momentum phase" and have become household names. The realistic potential for big growth is gone.

DO NOT join a company with a product that has no profit margin! ie: a Long Distance Service or a Vinyl Record Company.

Think like a boomer, (there is two groups of these now) what are they looking for... NOW??

Is Your Company A 5 Pillar Company? Part 1

The first Pillar is Company Management with Experience and Integrity.

Get to know WHO they are, and WHAT their backgrounds are:

Search Google for the owners of the company.

Do the owners have Integrity?

Add the word ’Scam’ to your search.

Do the owners have a Corporate background or an in-the-field Network Marketing background?

Read your "Policies & Procedures" and "Terms & Conditions"; both are part of your Legal Contract.

Look for the word "Ongoing".

Look for policies that strike you as "Unreasonable".
Like "Termination, with or without cause".

Ask yourself "Does this contract protect me or the company?"

"Is it clear which way it leans?"

Does the company charge you for training or a company web site?

Does the company charge you for each paycheck they send you?

These are the people who will be signing your checks. You are depending on these people to lead the company that will help you "Own Your Life". You are depending on them to have a solid business that you can build to pay your childrens’ children.

Are they dependable??

RULES OF THUMB:

The longer the contract, the greater the possibility that the policies important to you are being hidden in "Legalese"!

If it’s a "Cash Only" business...It’s a Scam!

If you can buy a position at the top...It’s a Scam!

If you are offered a "Special Deal"...the playing field isn’t level for all.

If the products are sold on eBay at a greatly reduced price...Buy there instead. If a company is publicly traded, Financial Decisions Will be made in Favor of the Stockholders at the Expense of the Distributors.

You want to protect yourself and the business you are building. You are putting a lot of yourself into your business. Get the facts. If you need a lawyer to read the company Policies, it’s probably not the company for you.

5 Pillars of Success

No Good Deed Goes Unpunished! Part 2

Another exert from Micheal Dlouhy's ebook:

People ask me:

° "Your e-book is great! Why on earth do you give it away for free??"

°"Your telephone training is great! Why is it free??"

°"Your 'Colors" CD is great! Why is it so cheap??"

°"Why do you help me for free when I'm not in your company??"
.... and a dozen other variations.

In the early 1990's, I joined over 100 MLM opportunities. I tracked, I cataloged,

analyzed and evaluated EVERYTHING they did: products, compensation plans,

marketing, distributor support, profitability, etc.

The Ugly Results

I'm a fun-loving, easy-going guy. But my teeth clenched and my fingers curled into

fists of rage. I was stunned by how many companies and "Heavy Hitters" make HUGE

profits NOT on product sales, but instead by selling a ton of worthless marketing

materials to the distributors who traust and believe in them!

I get mad just thinking about it. This is why you find widespread cynicism &

skepticism amongst network marketers.

I can't blame them.

But you should hear the calls I get from people trying to figure out how I'm going

to bamboozle them.

First, they figure I'm trying to steal their people.

Fact is, they don't HAVE any people. None who trust them, anyway. Many up-lines'

idea of support is to tell you the lies we'll cover in Chapter 1.

TRUE support is to take you by the hand and lead you through every step of this

business, so you can actually experience it in real time and get good at it. THAT is

what we do on our phone calls...No company is ever mentioned on those calls. No

product is mentioned. No one is ever recruited.

Some people figure our calls must be rigged so anybody who calls gets billed on

their phone bill!

Listen. Our MLM business brings good income, thank you. Our tools & phone calls

support our people. And they work their butts off. And Linda & I love them and

appreciate them.

We owe everything to this business. It tortures me to hear people denigrate network

marketing because of the greed of some companies and their "Super Star Reps."

I don't do ANYTHING in life that isn't fun. Whatever I do, I do it because I love it.

So I do what I can to balance the scales. I choose to support with every fiber of my

body ANYONE who invests their hopes & dreams & life into this industry. It

makes my day to help keep their spark alive.

I will train anyone for free. No strings. I am not threatened by anyone or any

company in this industry.

But I do understand that they are threatened by me. Most STILL don't take the time

and make the commitment to train their own people.

A word for the "Still Skeptical:" I get the skepticism. Really. But enough is

enough. Get over it. If you wnat to live your life distrusting everybody, then your

life is pretty much over, anyway. Goodbye, good luck. Don't let the door hit you in

the butt on the way out.

No Good Deed Goes Unpunished Part 1

An exert from Michael Dlouhy's Success In Ten Steps:

Listen carefully,

I'm well aware yor intentions were gallant: to provide for your family all the things YOU never had, to spend more quality time with them, to help others like yourself grow and prosper.

And remember what happened next??

You were lied to. You were "leveraged". The Heavy Hitters used you for batting practice. You got thrown in the muck, untrained, unprepared. Your checking account was drained. Your credit cards were maxed out. Friends and relatives screened your phone calls.

Then you looked in the mirror and called yourself, "Loser!"

I know, I know.

It started because you want the same things I wanted.

You want to be your own boss, answer to no one... and earn a good living doing it. You want to go where you want, when you want. You want to spend $200 on dinner without batting an eye.

You want precious time NOW with those you love. You want the money & freedom to take a day off-or 2 weeks off-and maybe fly away to some far away island on whim.

You want to work and socialize with people you like and admire, who share your outlook on life and your goals. You want the self-satisfaction of achieving your goals, and the self-fulfillment of helping others reach theirs. You want financial independence.

You DON'T want more rejection.
You DON'T want to have to sell anything to anyone.
And you sure DON'T want another MLM.

Good stuff. Holy mackerel, sounds just like ME!

So here I am. I have no choice but to write this book. Truly, no control. You'll read why in Chapter 2.

But here's what I do control: This book is free. No company is mentioned or promoted. No opportunity is mentioned or promoted.

You'll find 20 tons of e-books all over the internet, full of affiliate links. Trust them at your own peril, because they profit on every recommendation they make.

My purpose is to share what I've learned in nearly 30 years in network marketing, and present a 10-step success plan you can use with ANY network marketing opportunity.

The plan is NOT easy.

But it's simple.

It's NOT "I'll do all the work FOR you."

It only works if YOU do.

It's NOT "get-rich-quick."

But you can create a lifetime residual income.

What's in it for me, you ask? That question is answered in Chapters 2 & 5. Don't worry. Helping you helps me. It's part of my giving back to this great industry.

I wish you the absolute best, and I hope you use this information. It could change your life.

Are you game? Then read on!
