Allegory of the Cave and your Job do they have anyhting in common?
Posted by: | CommentsMy goal with this post is to help other struggling Network’s to find hope, by bringing thought provoking ideas, marketing techniques, and just plan Motivational tips. I hope that this will be truly enriching to your life, and not just to your success, but spiritually and mentally. I think all of these have a huge factor in achieving great success.
I remember seeing Anthony or “Tony” Robbins a while back and he talked about the idea of being just a couple millimeters off from turning everything around. I think that is so true, and I hope through my studies, and just critically thinking deeply about certain things; that this will truly help you find out where you might be a couple millimeters off in life.
Also I hope that this can be a help for those who are at the edge of quitting. Owning businesses in both realms, I’m a 100% sure that owning your own business is the best way for people to make real income and change their families life’s for generations with the right company or idea. So I would love to be able to give my time to others who are really at the point where they can’t see the light at the end of the tunnel. This reminds me of the “Allegory of the Cave” by “Plato” I will give you short abbreviated version of it. Basically it’s a dark underground cave where people are all sitting with their backs turned to the cave’s opening, They are chained to the chair at an early age. Now this is where it’s get’s interesting. There are other people in the cave to and they are referred to as Puppet-Masters and they never see them. Well the crazy thing is that the people don’t even know that they are prisoners. Their reality has been shaped at an early age. Because this is all they have ever known. Then the Puppet-Masters hold objects that are flickering through the fire to produce shapes on the wall. The prisoners are only able to look forward because they are chained that way. Well one man escaped the cave “which “Plato” called an intellectual one”, and finally gets to see the true images, like trees and grass, sun, and ect. He is amazed, and tries to go back and tell others, and they say what are you talking about, we have everything here; why would want to escape this!
I hope this hit’s home and I would encourage you to read and think about it. Last time I remembered, this is the land of opportunity, not the land of job. So if I can help anyone be free from the Matrix, Cave and etc, please let me know. Again I will bring stories and thoughts like this to help people strive harder to get out.

Last thing I will say is this. What is your “WHY”? This is the most important thing, and it should be something that is convicting to you and personal. That you can’t quit, because that “WHY” will stare you in the face every time you look in the mirror. When the trials of life come and beat down upon you, and your telling yourself that you can never do this, I want you to stop yourself, and quit listening to “THE HOW” Quit asking How am I going to do this. “Les Brown” says give that “HOW” to God, and just do. Learn something new, try a new system, and ect. If what your doing is not working, try to learn something that can help you turn things around. Remember in the beginning of the first paragraph, you are just a couple of millimeters off having things turn-around.
How to fail in MLM marketing
Posted by: | CommentsA few problems that some new MLM marketing people have:
1. No upline support.
Once a person joins a new MLM marketing program, he or she is vulnerable and needs a lot of help from something or someone.
In many cases, the uplines are not actively helping them. This happens a lot when the uplines are simply sponsoring as many people as they can with no regard to what happens to them after they get sponsored.
In most standard MLM marketing programs, it is important that the new person gets immediate assistance from a local person, or tools that you have. Otherwise their chances for survival are very slim.
2. New MLM marketers cannot sell.
This is probably the major reason most people do not make it MLM marketing. By using standard MLM techniques, you have got to sell and learn how to speak at opportunity meetings and the like
3. MLM’er cannot generate good leads.
Next to the selling problem, this has to be the next biggest reason most people fail in MLM marketing.
Here is a picture of what normally happens. The new person has just signed up in an exciting MLM program. He is taught by the manuals, meetings and so forth, how he should “share” his product with his friends, neighbors and relatives.
Normally, he is not comfortable with this, and if he is typical, he will have many sleepless, tossing and turning nights. He just doesn’t want to “impose” on his friends! He would feel a lot more comfortable just presenting his opportunity to strangers.
4. No true duplicative system.
If the MLM marketing company must be promoted through expensive methods, this is not feasible.
Learning how to sell, or to speak and conduct an opportunity meeting is just not duplicative. Only a few people can do this. Here again, is a very important reason a lot of would be MLM’ers die on the vine.
5. Selling by mail using standard MLM techniques.
Traditional way to marketing MLM is to spend all spare time to call around and travel around to get prospects. A lot of people already have full time job, it is hard to find extra time to travel and make phone calls. This is why these MLM marketers cannot keep their program going.
6. The marketer is not sure about the MLM marketing company or service.
Often a person will sign up in a MLM marketing program in a “fit of excitement.” After the dust clears, he comes down to earth and reality slowly sets in.
Pick an established and financially sound MLM company that is at least two years old with unquestionable products or services. That way, you can feel good about the company and products that you are promoting. There is nothing quite like being able to “tell the complete truth” to your prospective customers.
7. They do not stick with it long enough.
Starting any company takes time, and this is true with an MLM marketing program as well.
By the time you study the program, write and receive literature: study this and sign up; get the literature, etc. a lot of time has been spent. And then you have to generate your leads and so on.
It will take several months before you can expect much of anything to happen to your MLM marketing. You should set in your mind that you are going to stick with this for at least sometime. That just makes good business sense.
