I saw a comment from a successful internet marketer this week that I think is very important to consistently remind yourself of.

Almost everybody we talk to about network marketing is an employee. They come from an employee mindset. Very few are actually business owners.

The employee mindset is: “OK. I really want to be successful on my own. I don’t want to have a boss. I want to make more money. What do I do?”

The employee mindset is NOT: “OK. I’m going to work this out for myself and come up with my own business plan.”

And the point this guy was making is, the most important word when you are talking to a prospect is “system.”

Let me repeat that. Heck, let me SCREAM that.

THE MOST IMPORTANT WORD WHEN YOU ARE TALKING TO A PROSPECT IS:

SYSTEM SYSTEM SYSTEM SYSTEM SYSTEM SYSTEM SYSTEM SYSTEM!

You’ve got to give them a step-by-step system. They have to see a system that can work for them. You have to show them how it has worked for others, and you have to show them, step-by-step, exactly what they will do with it.

But it’s more than just that. Your prospect not only has the opportunity to use a system that is tested and proven to work, but they also have the opportunity to talk to their prospects about that tested, proven system … which every prospect needs and wants. It’s really important. That is exactly what this guy is talking about.

You need to hammer prospects about the system. I mean, REALLY hammer them on this. Most prospects think, “Oh, this company has a great product. That’s what I need.” Or, “Oh, I’m personally sponsored by the heavy hitter. That’s what I need.” Or, “It’s been proven that this compensation plan pays out 80%, and over 90% of the people who use it are successful.”

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!

Most prospects need to use the Success In 10 Steps ebook by Michael Dlouhy to have success, but some won’t.  Everybody knows that a new person needs a tested, proven system to start with. If you can find a better, tested proven system, fine. We’ve used this one for 4 years, and it constantly produces the targeted leads we want.

That’s what those with the “employee mindset” need more than anything … good prospects to talk to. Just getting a few really targeted prospects a week can change their lives.

System? Yes. Use it. And talk to your prospects about it. Believe me, they know they need it.

Have you ever read the stories on the left column of the homepage of Mentoring For Free? There are some truly great stories there, about how people have benefitted from the “Success In 10 Steps” ebook by Michael Dlouhy and also from all the Mentoring For Free trainings.

Each person tells their own story and, of course, each story is different. And one thing all humans everywhere love is a good story.

So when someone downloads the ebook, they then get a series of follow-up emails. Each email gives a snippet from one of those stories featured on Mentoring For Free … with a link to read the full story. When somebody clicks on the link to read the full story, THAT identifies them as a very special prospect. And you get a notice in your Mentoring For Free Back Office that Joe Smith has done another action.

The more actions a person does, the hotter a prospect they are. Some people click on the “story” link in every email they get, to read someone else’s story. Those people are especially strong prospects for you.

This “Success In 10 Steps” lead generation system has worked well to bring in the real Warriors, those who are determined to succeed in network marketing, no matter how many failures they’ve had over the years. IMO, you won’t find a better system anywhere to generate EXACTLY the type of people who will build your business.

I appreciate you!

Stories are what make network marketing so much fun. I’ve been invited to be a guest speaker at our company Convention in a few weeks, and it will be easy. Over the years, I’ve written down the stories that have happened around me in this business. In my talk at Convention, I’ll be stringing together 25 of these stores, as quickly as I can get through them. They are good stories, and I believe those in the audience will be inspired.

In that spirit, here is a great story about “Success In 10 Steps” by Michael Dlouhy:

Jumpin’ Justin Draws Some Circles

Stories like this - and there are a ton of them now - help illustrate what makes “Success In 10 Steps” such an incredibly effective network marketing tool.

Big MLM Truths

When you look to find new business partners in a cold market, you should ONLY ever focus on people actively looking to make money from home. It is a waste of your time to pursue anybody who has not recently demonstrated that desire.

OK. Let’s divide “people who want to make money from home” into 2 categories:

1. Those who have experience in MLM.
2. Those who don’t.

For a lot of reasons, the “Success In 10 Steps” by Michael Dlouhy ebook is targeted to group #1. The book addresses their specific frustrations. This is a group you do not have to explain MLM to … they already understand the concept. (And sometimes, the idea of and the reason for seeking “residual income” isn’t that easy for people to get.)

You could come up with a lot of other reasons, but the bottom line is that group #1 is just a lot more targeted. And there are millions of names in that group. It’s just a matter of finding the ones who are looking NOW for the right opportunity, and offering them a free copy of your ebook.

So you want to target current network marketers with this ebook. You are NOT targeting

• entrepreneurs
• work-at-home moms
• business executives
• investors
• coaches
• home business people
• etc., etc., etc.

Now … some of the MLMers you target will fall into one or more of these categories, and that is great. BUT you want to advertise to them ONLY if they have experience in MLM.

Why?

Because “Success In 10 Steps” is written for them. If they don’t already understand MLM, reading this ebook is a waste of their time and yours.

I know you must have a question about this. What is it? Please post a comment below.

I appreciate you!
