I was in the store today doing a little grocery shopping when I was approach by a gentleman. He asked me was I from around here…you know trying to make small talk.

In the midst of this, I am wondering why he has decided to interupt me. Because to be honest, I was pretty focused on what I was doing. So anyway, he talks a little longer that proceeds to ask me if I was open to an opportunity.

After talking to him and getting his card of course (because there is a better way), I started thinking about when I first started in MLM and was told to the house parties, approach people, cold calls, you know what I mean. I also remebered how they refered to these techniques as ‘duplicating success’.

Let’s get real…

I can’t begin to tell you about all the NO’s I recieved using this ’so-called’ duplicable system.

This is system is not duplicable by a long shot. Now I’m sure it was at one time (maybe back in the 60’s or 70’s) but today is a new day. No wonder the network marketing industry gets a bad wrap.

So here is what I discovered….

If you sponsor is teaching you these ‘old school’ techniques, then you are being set up for failure. You see, these strategies lack one MAJOR component – LEVERAGE!

Let me explain…

Network marketers are so concerned about ‘duplication’ that they are willing to try to duplicate anything. But it doesn’t take a genius to figure out that people hate to cold call and chase after people like puppies. Yet they continue to teach these methods (knowing they aren’t having much luck with them either) because they are trying to duplicate success.  WHAT SUCCESS?

Let me let you in on a little secret… a duplicable system is no longer duplicable if it’s not being duplicated.

So understand this, if you don’t like the ‘old school’ way of doing business then  your recruits won’t either. The fact is, it is not about duplicating set you up for failure stratigies. It is about duplicating what works. And I promise you, approaching people in the store is not it.

You must have control over you business. You have to put yourself in the drivers seat of your network marketing business by, not only, controling how you generate your own leads but how you interact with them.

The best way to do this is by leveraging yourself by using the internet. The internet has absolutely changed the way the world does business. It has leveled the playing field for all businesses, big and small.

By using the internet, you can generate your own leads, make money(even if people don’t join your business), and let the leads contact you. So instead of you chasing your leads, they are now chasing you.

It’s time to harness the real power of the internet to take your business to the next level.
