My down line who held the meeting made it to Manager from this one night and I am on my way to Director.

Those who say traditional network marketing (warm market prospecting, meetings, etc.) doesn’t work are flat our wrong.

I could have 300 Internet leads and not even convert one of those but 3 warm market leads and they are signed up and already working to promote the business.

Some big name “gurus” are all over the Internet talking about how the old ways of network marketing and direct sales are dead and only those who use automated Internet systems can build successful businesses.

There is nothing farther from the truth.

The truth is that the traditional methods of MLM recruiting including using your warm market still work the best and allow you to create a huge down line much faster than using the Internet alone.

The truth is that those who are selling their ideas about “no personal contact” Internet marketing are simply taking advantage of those who are afraid of selling and desperately want to find a way to market by eliminating the personal element.

You cannot remove the personal element from direct sales and expect to be successful. That is just plain crazy and a lie. This is a people business and those who are successful at building their organizations understand that. I will say it again. This is a people business and people want to do business with people.

If you want to sell e-books and newsletters to network marketing junkies that is one thing but if you want to build a leveraged organization that is going to provide residual income and wealth for life then you must accept the fact that you will need to sell on the telephone and in personal as well as via the Internet.

If you want to really succeed in network marketing then stop believing the lies being told about warm marketing recruiting being dead and accept the facts and you will actually start finding success in this business.
