Review: "Magnetic Sponsoring"

Steve Lauri — Sat, 27 Jun 2009 00:32:30 +0000

If you've been in the network marketing industry for any length of time then you most likely have stumbled upon Magnetic Sponsoring by Mike Dillard. Mike went from waiting tables to 7-figures in less than 18 months, and has helped thousands of people achieve financial freedom with his marketing system.

This is one book I would recommend above all others when it comes to learning about how to build a business using 21st century Internet marketing techniques. His principles work for not only network marketing businesses but almost ALL businesses. Excellent information. Mike knows his stuff.

I found Magnetic Sponsoring a very interesting and provocative read. Dillard has an entertaining yet conversational writing style that had me laughing out loud at times. His material is very convincing and very eye-opening. As a network marketer, I related so well to his message.

One of the most exciting concepts he reveals is that of the "funded proposal". The whole idea of never having to pay for another lead again, definitely hit home with me. He explains in detail how he set up a marketing system on auto pilot that basically provides "endless leads" while funding 100% of his marketing efforts. Sweet.

Throughout Magnetic Sponsoring, Mike has a unique way of explaining complex strategies in very easy-to-understand terms of how they work in the real world. And he does it in 54 pages.

I was also impressed with his knowledge of advertising (my expertise) and marketing—especially his ad copy skills. He covers a lot of ground including customer psychology, how to become "the hunted", who's your target audience, how to write great ads and much more.

I absolutely loved Magnetic Sponsoring! If you're serious about your network marketing career—get your copy today.

Review: “The Renegade Network Marketer”

Without a doubt, The Renegade Network Marketer by Ann Sieg is one of the most important, and at the same time, one of the most controversial books within the MLM industry.

I soaked this one up. I tried to make my brain into one big sponge. And, you should too—especially if you’re in the process of building a network marketing business, or any business for that matter. The Renegade Network Marker will have your neurotransmitters firing like a championship ping-pong match.

For one thing, you’ll have a hard time putting it down. I read it, cover to cover, over a weekend. Ann has a refreshing and effective way of communicating her ideas and they make so much sense.

If you’re just getting started in the MLM industry, you have no idea how fortunate you are to be reading this article. This book could literally save you months and years of effort and give you the short cut to success in your business. I know it sounds cliché, but I truly believe it.

For those of you who have struggled for months, or years like I did for that matter, consider this your life preserver.

The Renegade Network Marketer spells out, in a very compelling and interesting way, why most people fail in this industry, how MLM has developed such a negative connotation in our society and what you can do to turn it upside down and stack the odds in your favor.

At the same time, Ann Sieg has gotten quite a bit of flack. Some of the things she writes about have upset the “old guard”, if you will. For decades, the old school belly-to-belly, drawing circles, hounding friends and family type methods, have been the primary ways being taught on how to build your network marketing business.

Aside from being as Ann says, “about as pleasant as giving blood”, these ways simply do not work and are the reason for almost single handedly destroying the industry.

She’s changed all that. And, a lot of traditionalists don’t like it.

She then describes in great detail—with a very helpful flow chart—how to apply professional marketing and business building techniques that harness the power of attraction and the Internet. Like, how to get dozens of highly targeted leads to come to you—everyday on autopilot. And, how to generate an income even when they don’t join your MLM business. Now that’s exciting.

If you’re drowning in the deep end of old school MLM methodologies, I’m tossing you The Renegade Network Marketer. It will save your networking career. It did mine.

To your success,

Review: “The 7 Great Lies of Network Marketing”

Steve Lauri — Wed, 15 Oct 2008 03:34:58 +0000

Chuckling and nodding in agreement is how I would describe much of my experience in reading Ann Sieg’s ebook, “The 7 Great Lies of Network Marketing”.

I think 99.9 percent of all network marketers will relate to this book. I thought Ann did a wonderful job of capturing what many of us have gone through at one time or another while building our MLM businesses.

And, she’s right on the money as far as I’m concerned.

The book isn’t a “bitch session” or “sour grapes” by someone who’s given up on the industry, but rather, a serious look at what’s wrong with it and how to change it.

Some have criticized Ann saying she’s off the mark in telling people they’ve been lied to by their uplines. Although the label may seem harsh, I think it’s valid. For instance, the first of the “lies” she talks about is when your upline tells you, “Everyone is your prospect!”

Ok, in all fairness, maybe your upline didn’t lie to you because they actually believed it when they told you. After all, it’s what they were taught also. It really is a case of the blind leading the blind. If it’s not a lie, it’s an untruth.

However, she’s absolutely correct. When everyone is your prospect, it leads you to believe that anyone within an arm’s length is suitable for recruiting.

Ann says, “This insane belief has led to such ridiculous practices as the “3 foot rule” and the “when in doubt, blurt it out” technique.”

I personally think trying to recruit everyone you come in contact with is just exhausting. For me, it’s uncomfortable trying to introduce my company’s product to someone sitting next to me on a plane, for instance. You know, making conversation and asking certain questions (always with the end goal in mind) while waiting for just the right time to bring it up. Yuck.

The point is, everyone is NOT your prospect, and you’ll be surprised to read who is.

Ann’s book is refreshing and validating. If you’ve struggled to build your network marketing business, you’ll find “The 7 Great Lies of Network Marketing” by Ann Sieg a very enlightening and humorous read. It’s short—only 35 pages—but it delivers.

Best of all, she gives you a professional, eye-opening solution. And, if the light bulb doesn’t go on at that point, something’s wrong.
