#1 Mistake by all network marketers

I have been doing a lot of online marketing lately and learning from some of the top network marketers in the world. There techniques are simply amazing and I wish I would have known a lot of this stuff when I first joined an mlm company. Some of the leaders I have been following are Mike Dillard, Gregg Davison, Mike Spencer, Josh Delaney, and the founders of MLM Lead System Pro. Of course I know there are more out there, but these are just a few of the leaders in this industry that I have been learning from.
As I have been moving through this industry one thing I learned is you don't promote your primary opportunity up front! It is the number one rule in my book for all network marketers, but I have been seeing it more and more. On my facebook wall, in my groups, on twitter pages. People please stop! No comp plan, no product, no company is better than the other. True there may be one that works good for you, but with so many out there how is somebody to choose. There is a better way of getting you opportunity out there to some body. If you don't believe me read Mike Dillard's book called magnetic sponsoring. You can check it out at this link http://jamiesmithinc.magneticsponsoringonline.com Trust me if you start looking at all the top producers in you company you will not find them telling the bag boy at the supermarket how their company is debt free and he can make X amount of money is X amount of days!

Until Next Time,

Work Ethic

It is about 12:13am on a Saturday night. Start of the college football weekend, which has been a great opening weekend! I was just thinking about the countless hours I say up late working. Sometimes I am up late doing things that deal with my real estate business. Sometimes I am up late working on self branding and online marketing. One thing that comes to mind is how many of the great entrepreneurs and great leaders of my generation have done the same thing! How many of them have been in my shoes; trying to work until your body just can think anymore and you have to force yourself to go to sleep. I know that most of the next generation (people my age are up doing the same thing)
This is what it takes to become successful people. There are no short cuts; just hard work combined with smart work! So as everyone else is sleep, just know that I am up putting in the work. Once my true success has came no one can say that is came easy or over night!
