MLM Network Marketing Training- 5 SURE Tips to Fail at MLM

5 Sure Ways To Fail In Network Marketing by Kathy Riley
.....And 3 to really slow you down!


When I opened up my emails this morning I had email after email, as I am sure you did with things to purchase to make me a success in Network Marketing!

Enough Already! People promising me the best leads, the best e-book, the best course, the best lead generating site. And we spend dollar after dollar trying to become successful in Network Marketing. Those of you who have been with me for a while have read training emails from me that tell you to be careful who you are following. We have some wonderful trainers in our industry. And if your not on their MLM newsletters, you should be. I am not talking about them. They are proven, a 5% person....... not a 95% person who is failing. Be careful who you are taking direction from.

I actually want to disclose some secrets to you today. How many of you look at all those successful people in Network Marketing and compare yourself to them? To their success, what they have........ you look at them with envy! Well, don't! For every truly successful person and their are a lot of them, their is one who you might look at as successful, but is he really?

What I have found in our industry, is that Network Marketing is a truly small industry. We all know the wonderful trainers, teachers, mentors........ we hear their names over and over again. I bow down to them, I admire them, I honor them in every way. The time and effort they put into making this a better place to be........... is amazing.

Then we have the ones who say how wonderful they are......... they keep telling us over and over again how great they are! What they have done, how much money they make! Do you hear those comments from the great ones! Think about it guys! Don't get hooked on MLM hype.

Get hooked on facts!

For example I let other people do the talking for me. The current edition of Upline Magazine, says, and I quote: Kathy Riley was a nine-time Network Marketing failure, about to give it up for good yet again, when a fundamental shift in her own approach made her a winner - only two months into her tenth company!"

Or Jan Ruhe, author of "Nuts and Bolts" wrote.........

"Kathy Riley will be a valued asset to my new book on Presentations. I am honored to have her in my book!"

Don't get suckered into buying something that sounds wonderful and tells you "This is it!" Quit wasting all your hard earned dollars. Only buy from reliable and recommended people and companies. If your not sure, ask your upline or ask me, I will tell you.

Here is another thing to watch out for! This was a lesson that cost me about $5,000.

I was with my old MLM company. The upline biggy in my line sold little blue books that we mailed out to lists we bought from her. She became a millionaire mailing out these books ........ at least that is what we were told. She encouraged us to mail between 2,000-5,000 of these books each month.

So, let me recap this lesson. First we had to pay her to register to be in this program, then we bought the books from her along with her mailing lists.......... Hmmmmmmm!

Now add in time and labor....... and don't forget the postage!

Who do you think was really making the money here! But I, like hundreds of others in her downline, wanted success and thought this was the way to do it. Come to find out later, she made as much off selling worthless dreams to her downline as she did from the company. Be cautious of a upline who tries to sell you something every time they open their mouths. Especially if it is their own stuff!

If you have a upline trying to charge you for anything that they should be giving you FREE as a great upline ............ maybe you should reevaluate that persons intentions. Wouldn't it be to their best interests to help you by giving you what you need FREE to succeed. Remember, they have no success without your success!

The beauty of MLM Network Marketing is your upline will make money off you, as you will off your downline. It's called a residual and comes every month in a form of a check from the company. So they are making money, the right way, the ethical way. Be very, very careful of this type of upline.

They DO NOT have your best interest at heart.

Why, you ask am I saying those things to you?

When you compare yourself to someone like that, and you feel inferior to them because you haven't accomplished what they have......... who is getting hurt here? Why allow yourself to feel less than you are, because your comparing yourself to someone who is less than he/she says they are! We have enough negative emotions we deal with in our life that is real....... why deal with false ones!

You have all heard me say "Get out of the EMOTION of Network Marketing and get into the BUSINESS of Network Marketing". What I actually mean is think and make decisions about your business from a business standpoint. But, Network Marketing is an emotion. An emotion of wanting more for yourselves and families.

I hear people tell me all the time about how they can't make it no matter how hard they try. I was one of those people. For 15 years with 9 different companies I failed.

The last company I was with for 2 1/2 years, I actually lost the most money with them. They are actually everything I now teach people to run away from. I had always enrolled with companies because I liked my sponsor or believed in the hype the company sold to us.

When people ask me if I don't feel bad because of all the money I lost and all the companies I failed at. My response is always......... absolutely not! Because if I hadn't gone thru all of those failures with all those companies........ how would I ever relate and teach you guys now. Those MLM failures made me who I am today.

I put up thousands of signs on poles, handed out millions of flyers and pitched my friends and family until they threatened to hang me. NONE OF THAT WORKS! Why do people tell us to do it? They ignore the signs, throw away the flyers and our friends left us and our family wanted to!

For everyone reading this email now that is contemplating quitting our industry, let me tell you right now. I was quitting this industry AGAIN, as I had 9 times before, when I found my current company. This was the person who was failing just 2 week prior. I broke records in my company going to the highest position in the company within 2 months. Coming in without an existing downline!

You owe it to yourself NOT to QUIT! You will always wonder........ what if! What if I had tried one more time?

What would have happened if I had walked away that last time and didn't try one last time? I would have never know success and I wouldn't be writing to you know. Think about it! Scares me when I think of how close I came to quitting.

So what if you had a person who was willing to help you with finding your success? What if you had a upline who has a 80% retention rate in an industry that is usually 20%

So what if you had a upline who has a 1 in 50 ratio of people in her downline reaching a top position. Instead of the 1 in 1,000 ratio like everyone else.

What if you had a upline who gave you FREE content, autoresponder letters, web site, a lead generating program totally turn key. Both on line and off line. Then followed it up with support conference calls for not only you, but your prospects!

So what if you had a trainer willing to mentor to you FREE and teach you the ends and outs of success in our industry. To accept you into her FREE 90 day mentoring program.

And more importantly......... What if you let this slip thru your fingers. What if she can actually do what she says?

What's that worth to jump start you and put you ahead 3-5 years in your Network Marketing career?

How much will you lose in income over the next 5 years?

How much income could you be making?

$5,000 per year? $10,000 per year? What's loss of income from your organization really costing you? How much further ahead of your goals would you be?

How much sooner could you quit your J-O-B with my help!

I ask you... where will you be this time next year?

More importantly......... where do you WANT to be this next year?

Are you willing to give me 90 days? Just 90 days of a total commitment to help you achieve your success.

And be totally coachable and willing to forget everything you think you know about Network Marketing, but didn't work!
