How To Fail Fast In Network Marketing
The title says it all.
Here are the steps.
Do them in any order.
Pick and choose the ones that appeal to you the most. Do them
consistently.
And – congratulations! – you can fail in MLM faster than you believe
possible!
1. Focus more on building a blog than on talking to prospects. Blogs are
fashionable. You’re nobody unless you have one. Besides, talking to
prospects opens you up to potential rejection. You’re better off not
talking to prospects until you’ve got your “brand” in place.
2. Spend your time writing lots of articles. These will not actually make
you any money. But they take up time and they allow you an outlet for
creative writing. Make sure to do this BEFORE you do any “income-producing
activity” each day. That way, when you’re exhausted from writing and submitting
11 new articles to hundreds of article sites today…..you can feel like you worked
your business. Even though you actually didn’t show your business to anyone.
3. Join a bunch of affiliate programs and focus on getting your leads to buy
stuff from them. They won’t actually join your “primary” business. But you can
feel good about picking up a check every once in awhile from your affiliate
business. Even though your MLM business is at a stand-still.
4. The Internet is the holy grail. Spend all your time mastering the Internet.
5. Be quick to label tried and true methods as “archaic”, “old-school” or
“old fashioned”. Sure….there are lots of people making tons of money in
network marketing with those methods but….well…..it’s not sophisticated
enough for you.
6. If you have a choice of putting a few guests on a business presentation
call…..or recording a new video for your YouTube channel…..don’t even think
about it. Recording the video is building your brand. You can show your business
to those pesky prospects anytime. Focus on your brand.
7. Avoid realizing that the top earners in your company are focused on
actual income-producing activities. Keep yourself occupied with things that
demand a high level of activity….but a low level of income. This is essential
if you expect to fail as fast as possible.
8. Continue to make the mistake of thinking that successful information
marketers are necessarily successful network marketers. When you talk about
how some MLM guru is making millions of dollars per year, make sure to avoid
the small fact that they’re not actually doing it in MLM. As long as you continue
to ignore the difference between info-marketing and actual network marketing,
you can continue to follow their advice without noticing that only one of you
is making any serious money.
9. It’s absolutely mandatory that you spend your time getting more Twitter
followers. That’s crucial to your success. Don’t let anyone tell you differently.
10. For the love of God, do NOT commit to actually making sure that
you’re putting prospects in front of a presentation daily….and then following
up with them.
After all….now that you’ve been “in the biz” for a few months,
have that big Twitter following, all those articles are online and you’ve
built your “brand”……shouldn’t you start working on your new home study
course teaching other people how to make money from home?
There you have it folks. Ten essential ways to fail fast in network marketing.
Knock yourself out.
Tongue firmly in cheek,
