Five Characteristics of Success in MLM, Part Deux

Member: Keola Duarte
Years in Industry: 10
Location: Las Vegas, Nevada

I'm excited for this blog entry, and I hope you are too. In the last entry, I talked about five characteristics I've seen in my experience that have led people to real success in the network marketing industry. In my opinion, you cannot be successful without them. With them, however, you are in a strong position to achieve your aspirations in this industry.

I want to explain to you how The SpiderWeb Marketing System holds to these characteristics and will help you develop them yourself.

1. They used their own products or services and could explain why you should use them.

This is an easy one. Its easy to sell a product when you use it yourself. A personal guarantee based on experience is a powerful tool. As you use The SpiderWeb Marketing System, you'll see the success, and as you tell others about it, they'll see your success and want to be a part of it as well.

2. They had a reason for doing the business and a business plan.

There are more reasons to do business other than just to make money, right now. While SpiderWeb will make money for you right now, it can also be viewed as an investment, with immediate, and long-term returns. The business network that you build with people with similar goals in mind will benefit you for many years.

3. They let the tools do the selling.

Let us do the work. This system has been created to sell itself for you. The tools are in place to advertise, market, and sell this system, all with no extra effort on your part. Some things really are simple.

4. They were always learning more about the business.

I think this holds true in all aspects of life. Those who stay on top of things, always ready to adapt to the different challenges and changes that come their way, are the ones who make it. At SpiderWeb Marketing, we are daily seeking ways to improve. In fact, we never stop getting better. We've got the best product on the market, and we'll always strive to make it even better.

5. They stayed in the game long enough to have a chance to succeed.

Patience is a virtue in any business. Think of the exponential growth model, which is shaped like a J. It starts out slow, when patience is required, then all of a sudden, boom! Exponential growth. That's how a network operates. From personal experience, I can tell you that the longer you are involved, the broader and more expansive your network will become, until soon you have cash coming in from the farthest reaches of the universe.

I%u2019m convinced that there are keys to success in life. Five of those keys are listed above. For some, they come naturally. For others, they have to be developed. Either way, they work. They just need a vehicle to turn attributes into assets. The SpiderWeb Marketing System is the way to develop those critical attributes and find the success that you work so hard for.

Perhaps you joined MLM for some of the same reasons that I did. I loved the idea of flexibilityI was excited by the comfort of working from homeI wanted to supplement my primary incomeI wanted to supplant my primary incomeI desperately needed to do something other than my previous jobI had a desire to be my own bossI was interested in entrepreneurshipI have a knack for networkingI loved the productI was conned into it. Perhaps you tried to do some of the same things that I did. I made a list of my 100 closest friends and family membersI pitched my new life changing product to everyone I knew and everyone I ever metI gave away hundreds of dollars worth of Samples and promotional materialsI went to the local mall and practiced "The 3 Foot Rule" (Attacked every person that came within 3 feet of me and pitched them on my business)I contacted old high school friends who I had not seen or talked to in years and told them I wanted to "re-connect" over lunchI went door to doorI c!
old called people from the local phone bookI called local businesses and tricked whoever answered the phone into coming in for a job interviewI spent THOUSANDS of dollars on leadsI made 100 cold calls a day to my "Hot Opportunity Seeker Leads"I spent THOUSANDS of dollars on training courses and "Proven Turnkey Systems"I tried a different Company, then another, then anotherI placed "Sizzle Cards" on gas station pumps and windshieldsI passed out FlyersI went to weekly Hype-filled "Rah!-Rah!" Opportunity Meetings or conference callsI attended boring company training events. Either way, however, the point is that I know that through The SpiderWeb Marketing System I can accomplish my goal to Gain financial freedomGain time freedomSpend my time with my familyObtain economic independenceEnjoy my time and my life my wayBe a leader in my businessShare my knowledge with othersShare my success with othersWork less hoursQuit my J.O.B. and be FREERetire earlyBecome a MillionaireBuy my !

multi-level marketing (a.k.a. network marketing & referral marketing)

The idea behind multi-level marketing (MLM) is simple. Imagine you have a product to sell. A common MLM product is some sort of panacea, such as a vitamin or mineral supplement. You could do what most businesses do: either sell it directly to consumers or find others who will buy your product from you and sell it to other people. MLM schemes require that you recruit people not only to buy and sell your product, but who will also recruit people who will not only buy and sell your product but also recruit people....ad infinitum. Only there never is an infinitum to move towards. This may seem unusual to traditional business people. Why, you might wonder would you recruit people to compete with you? For, isn't that what you are doing when you recruit people to sell the same products you are selling? MLM magic will convince you that it is reasonable to recruit competitors because they won't really be competitors since you will get a cut of their profits. This will take your mind off the fact that no matter how big your town or market, it is finite. The well will go dry soon enough. There will always be some distributors who will make money in an MLM scheme. The majority, however, must fail due to the intrinsic nature of all pyramid schemes.

Multi-level marketing is system of marketing which puts more emphasis upon the recruiting of distributors than on the selling of products. As such, it is intrinsically flawed. MLM is very attractive, however, because it sells hope and appears to be outside the mainstream of business as usual. It promises wealth and independence to all. Unfortunately, no matter what the product, MLM is doomed to produce more failures than successes. For every MLM distributor who makes a decent living or even a decent supplemental income, there are at least ten who do little more than buy products and promotional materials, costing them much more than they will ever earn as an MLM agent. The most successful MLM scheme is Amway. It has millions of distributors worldwide with sales in the billions. At the turn of the century, the average Amway distributor earned about $700 a year in sales, but spent about $1,000 a year on Amway products. Distributors also have other expenses related to the business, e.g., telephone, gas, motivational meetings, and publicity material (Amway.com; Klebniov 1991).

The reason MLM schemes cannot succeed is because MLM marketing is, in essence, a legal pyramid scheme. The basic idea is for a sales person to recruit more sales persons. This is very advantageous to those who own the company and supply the products, especially since the sales persons in MLMs are also customers. But it is puzzling why a sales person would think it is to his or her advantage to increase the number of competing sales persons.

This is not to say there is no benefit to MLM membership. You get certain tax write-offs. You get to buy products, some of which you will be happy with. You get to go to inspirational meetings, some of which will make you feel good. You may meet new friends and you may even make a few bucks. But more than likely you will end up alienating some family and friends. You will probably end up buying more stuff than you sell. And you will learn a lot about deceiving yourself and others. You won't be allowed to tell anyone how you are really doing, for example. You will always have to think positive, even if that means lying. You will have to tell anyone who asks that you are doing great, that business is wonderful, that you've never seen anything go so fast and bring you income so quickly, even if it isn't true.

The dangers of MLM schemes have been well articulated by others. If you are thinking of joining any MLM program, I advise you to first read Dean Van Druff's What's Wrong With Multi-Level Marketing or Robert Fitzpatrick's False Profits - Seeking Financial and Spiritual Deliverance in Multi-Level Marketing and Pyramid Schemes (Herald Press, 1997).

How to Start a Home Design Business
Excerpted from a Home Design Services startup guide, this in-depth look at home design businesses on Entrepreneur.com is a good read for anyone with a flair for design who is thinking about starting a business offering home design services.

The piece looks at a few different types of home design businesses:

* Interior Design
* Interior Redesign
* Professional Organizer
* Restoration/Preservation
* Faux Painting

The article then digs a little deeper into what's involved with each of these home design businesses, including what that type of home designer does, a day in the life, estimating, setting rates, getting certified (where it's required) and startup costs.

Overall employment of designers is expected to grow about as fast as the average for all occupations through the year 2012. Actually, with the increasing popularity of home improvement networks like HGTV, D-I-Y and others it's easy to see that there's a great deal of interest in making one's home the best it can be, which would suggest that demand will continue to be above the average for this type of business that lends itself to starting at home.

When economic times are good and home prices are soaring, homeowners can see an excellent rate of return on home design projects and have plenty of home equity they can use to fund their design projects. When the real estate market is struggling, like it is today, it gets increasingly difficult to sell a house and sellers look for ways they can stand out in an overcrowded home resale market. Either way, it sounds like a potential win-win home business opportunity.

We all want to keep our tax bite to a minimum and a state's tax system can have a significant impact on an entrepreneur's bottom line.

10 Best and 10 Worst State Tax Systems for Small Business

Work at Home Scams Rising in the Face of Economic Woes
This article by Eve Tahmincioglu on MSNBC.com takes a look at how the number of work at home scams is likely to increase as the economy tightens. Because work at home scammers prey on people who are desperate for money but who don't want to or can't leave the house to earn the additional income, it's likely that a growing number of people will get scammed into believing that work at home jobs they see online or receive unsolicited email about are legitimate.

Tahmincioglu goes on to point out that complaints to the Better Business Bureau pertaining to work-at-home opportunities rose to 4,100 in 2007 from about 3,800 in 2006. Additionally, she tells us that work-at-home offers and business opportunities ranked 13th last year among fraud complaints received by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).

While it's one thing to get conned into paying for the privilege to work at home with these scammers and perhaps have your bank account drained in the process, those who get scammed also need to be aware that they could end up getting arrested for activities they thought were legitimate but were, in reality, rip off attempts by crooks who convince the workers to repackage goods and send them on only to find out the unsuspecting home worker was actively involved in fencing merchandise purchased with stolen credit cards.

Some of the specific scams mentioned in the article include:

* An email saying you were randomly selected to become a mystery shopper and you can earn $500 to $800 a week.
* An unsolicited email, or a job post about a work-at-home job involving freight.
* Offers of training and pay for filling out medical bills. Typically the scam requires you to make an upfront payment for the "opportunity" and you never get paid for your work.

Additional work at home scam offers I receive nearly every day

Occasionally I save the scam email offers I get. Over the past year, I've saved 93 messages. And that was just those I decided to save that weren't blocked as spam. Many say they saw my resume on CareerBuilder or Monster. In nearly all cases the messages are poorly written and reflect the grammar of non-native English. Why have I saved them? Well, I'm getting so fed up, one day I may just start naming names. Here are the most common type of offers I see:

* An email saying my resume was found on a job site and the company would like to offer me a job as a Transfer Manager processing on-line money transfers.
* An offer to become a PayPal Account Manager to process payments from the company's clients through PayPal. I would get a percentage of each transfer (5% - 15%).

Often, the email has a noreply address. Other times I'm urged to go to a website and fill out information, providing my personal financial information. Typically, the only requirements are that you be US-based, have a US bank account, be over 25 and be good with computers. Since you need to have a US bank account, you can bet the scammers are going to insist on getting your financial information before they can agree to "hire" you. Don't do me any favors!

What Kind of Home Based Entrepreneur Are You?
Entrepreneur.com/MSNBC provides an excerpt from Jeffrey A. Landers' book, The Home Office from Hell Cure. In it, Landers examines two types of entrepreneurs, what he calls Growth Mavens and Lifestyle Gurus. While I really enjoyed the article, it may be oversimplified because in reality there are probably many more than just two types of entrepreneurs.

Landers describes Growth Mavens as those who want to grow from a one-person business to a multi-employee corporation and beyond. He says Growth Mavens know there's no limit to the amount of money they can make. As a result, Growth Mavens are typically driven to move their business out of the house as soon as possible and into the corporate world. My argument would be that Growth Maven types are not really home-based entrepreneurs in the true sense of the word anyway, as so many of them go out to find venture capital and don't start their business at home in the first place.

I can relate more to the Lifestyle Gurus, and I suspect many of us with home businesses would. Landers says Lifestyle Gurus made their dream happen the first day they didn't have to go in to the office. "He is psyched to be his own boss, have a flexible schedule and decide for himself when to work and when to take time off. " Landers says that successful Lifestyle Gurus "Have a plan for making it work. They make themselves look big even when they're small. They outsource the things that both drain their time and aren't revenue-producing. And they get their customers' attention."

I agree that you need a plan to be successful. It may or may not amount to a formal business plan, but it's a plan nonetheless.

His categorization neatly breaks down these two types of entrepreneurs - maybe a little too neatly - into those who want to get big and those who want to stay at home and make enough money for a good living. Included with the excerpt is a quiz to see which type of entrepreneur personality you have - or at least which of these two groups best fit you.

President Bush Issues Small Business Week Proclamation

On April 18th, President Bush issued a proclamation officially marking April 20th through April 26th as Small Business Week.

In his proclamation, Bush states, "Small businesses are the backbone of the American economy, and my Administration is committed to fostering an environment in which the entrepreneurial spirit can thrive. " My question is, if your administration is so committed to small business, why so little notice? With some planning, events could have been planned to make the week what he says it's supposed to be: "A time to celebrate the many achievements of small business owners, entrepreneurs, and employees, who contribute to the vitality and prosperity of our Nation and create new job opportunities for our citizens."

The last sentence of the proclamation is, "I call upon all Americans to observe this week with appropriate ceremonies, activities, and programs that celebrate the achievements of small business owners and their employees and encourage the development of new small businesses." Well, isn't that special? With a whole two days of planning time, I wonder what meaningful ceremonies and programs could be pulled together. The other question I have is, why not make this an annual event?

How to Start a Home Design Business
Excerpted from a Home Design Services startup guide, this in-depth look at home design businesses on Entrepreneur.com is a good read for anyone with a flair for design who is thinking about starting a business offering home design services.

The piece looks at a few different types of home design businesses:

* Interior Design
* Interior Redesign
* Professional Organizer
* Restoration/Preservation
* Faux Painting

The article then digs a little deeper into what's involved with each of these home design businesses, including what that type of home designer does, a day in the life, estimating, setting rates, getting certified (where it's required) and startup costs.

Overall employment of designers is expected to grow about as fast as the average for all occupations through the year 2012. Actually, with the increasing popularity of home improvement networks like HGTV, D-I-Y and others it's easy to see that there's a great deal of interest in making one's home the best it can be, which would suggest that demand will continue to be above the average for this type of business that lends itself to starting at home.

When economic times are good and home prices are soaring, homeowners can see an excellent rate of return on home design projects and have plenty of home equity they can use to fund their design projects. When the real estate market is struggling, like it is today, it gets increasingly difficult to sell a house and sellers look for ways they can stand out in an overcrowded home resale market. Either way, it sounds like a potential win-win home business opportunity.

10 Best and 10 Worst State Tax Systems for Small Business
The Small Business & Entrepreneurship Council has released it's annual Business Tax Index - Best to Worst State Tax Systems for Entrepreneurship and Small Business.

The study looks at 16 different tax measures and combines them into a single score in order to rank the 50 US states and DC in terms of their tax impact on small businesses and entrepreneurs.

How does your state stack up when it comes to taxes? Are you planning a move? The results may affect your decision to start a small or home business in your current state or in one you may have considered moving to. We all want to keep our tax bite to a minimum and a state's tax system can have a significant impact on an entrepreneur's bottom line.

10 Best and 10 Worst State Tax Systems for Small Business

Work at Home Scams Rising in the Face of Economic Woes
This article by Eve Tahmincioglu on MSNBC.com takes a look at how the number of work at home scams is likely to increase as the economy tightens. Because work at home scammers prey on people who are desperate for money but who don't want to or can't leave the house to earn the additional income, it's likely that a growing number of people will get scammed into believing that work at home jobs they see online or receive unsolicited email about are legitimate.

Tahmincioglu goes on to point out that complaints to the Better Business Bureau pertaining to work-at-home opportunities rose to 4,100 in 2007 from about 3,800 in 2006. Additionally, she tells us that work-at-home offers and business opportunities ranked 13th last year among fraud complaints received by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).

While it's one thing to get conned into paying for the privilege to work at home with these scammers and perhaps have your bank account drained in the process, those who get scammed also need to be aware that they could end up getting arrested for activities they thought were legitimate but were, in reality, rip off attempts by crooks who convince the workers to repackage goods and send them on only to find out the unsuspecting home worker was actively involved in fencing merchandise purchased with stolen credit cards.

Some of the specific scams mentioned in the article include:

* An email saying you were randomly selected to become a mystery shopper and you can earn $500 to $800 a week.
* An unsolicited email, or a job post about a work-at-home job involving freight.
* Offers of training and pay for filling out medical bills. Typically the scam requires you to make an upfront payment for the "opportunity" and you never get paid for your work.

Additional work at home scam offers I receive nearly every day

Occasionally I save the scam email offers I get. Over the past year, I've saved 93 messages. And that was just those I decided to save that weren't blocked as spam. Many say they saw my resume on CareerBuilder or Monster. In nearly all cases the messages are poorly written and reflect the grammar of non-native English. Why have I saved them? Well, I'm getting so fed up, one day I may just start naming names. Here are the most common type of offers I see:

* An email saying my resume was found on a job site and the company would like to offer me a job as a Transfer Manager processing on-line money transfers.
* An offer to become a PayPal Account Manager to process payments from the company's clients through PayPal. I would get a percentage of each transfer (5% - 15%).

Often, the email has a noreply address. Other times I'm urged to go to a website and fill out information, providing my personal financial information. Typically, the only requirements are that you be US-based, have a US bank account, be over 25 and be good with computers. Since you need to have a US bank account, you can bet the scammers are going to insist on getting your financial information before they can agree to "hire" you. Don't do me any favors!

What Kind of Home Based Entrepreneur Are You?
Entrepreneur.com/MSNBC provides an excerpt from Jeffrey A. Landers' book, The Home Office from Hell Cure. In it, Landers examines two types of entrepreneurs, what he calls Growth Mavens and Lifestyle Gurus. While I really enjoyed the article, it may be oversimplified because in reality there are probably many more than just two types of entrepreneurs.

Landers describes Growth Mavens as those who want to grow from a one-person business to a multi-employee corporation and beyond. He says Growth Mavens know there's no limit to the amount of money they can make. As a result, Growth Mavens are typically driven to move their business out of the house as soon as possible and into the corporate world. My argument would be that Growth Maven types are not really home-based entrepreneurs in the true sense of the word anyway, as so many of them go out to find venture capital and don't start their business at home in the first place.

I can relate more to the Lifestyle Gurus, and I suspect many of us with home businesses would. Landers says Lifestyle Gurus made their dream happen the first day they didn't have to go in to the office. "He is psyched to be his own boss, have a flexible schedule and decide for himself when to work and when to take time off. " Landers says that successful Lifestyle Gurus "Have a plan for making it work. They make themselves look big even when they're small. They outsource the things that both drain their time and aren't revenue-producing. And they get their customers' attention."

I agree that you need a plan to be successful. It may or may not amount to a formal business plan, but it's a plan nonetheless.

His categorization neatly breaks down these two types of entrepreneurs - maybe a little too neatly - into those who want to get big and those who want to stay at home and make enough money for a good living. Included with the excerpt is a quiz to see which type of entrepreneur personality you have - or at least which of these two groups best fit you.

President Bush Issues Small Business Week Proclamation
President Bush

On April 18th, President Bush issued a proclamation officially marking April 20th through April 26th as Small Business Week.

In his proclamation, Bush states, "Small businesses are the backbone of the American economy, and my Administration is committed to fostering an environment in which the entrepreneurial spirit can thrive. " My question is, if your administration is so committed to small business, why so little notice? With some planning, events could have been planned to make the week what he says it's supposed to be: "A time to celebrate the many achievements of small business owners, entrepreneurs, and employees, who contribute to the vitality and prosperity of our Nation and create new job opportunities for our citizens."

The last sentence of the proclamation is, "I call upon all Americans to observe this week with appropriate ceremonies, activities, and programs that celebrate the achievements of small business owners and their employees and encourage the development of new small businesses." Well, isn't that special? With a whole two days of planning time, I wonder what meaningful ceremonies and programs could be pulled together. The other question I have is, why not make this an annual event?

"He is psyched to be his own boss, have a flexible schedule and decide for himself when to work and when to take time off. " Landers says that successful Lifestyle Gurus "Have a plan for making it work. They make themselves look big even when they're small. They outsource the things that both drain their time and aren't revenue-producing. And they get their customers' attention."

I agree that you need a plan to be successful. It may or may not amount to a formal business plan, but it's a plan nonetheless.

His categorization neatly breaks down these two types of entrepreneurs - maybe a little too neatly - into those who want to get big and those who want to stay at home and make enough money for a good living. Included with the excerpt is a quiz to see which type of entrepreneur personality you have - or at least which of these two groups best fit you.

President Bush Issues Small Business Week Proclamation

On April 18th, President Bush issued a proclamation officially marking April 20th through April 26th as Small Business Week.

In his proclamation, Bush states, "Small businesses are the backbone of the American economy, and my Administration is committed to fostering an environment in which the entrepreneurial spirit can thrive. " My question is, if your administration is so committed to small business, why so little notice? With some planning, events could have been planned to make the week what he says it's supposed to be: "A time to celebrate the many achievements of small business owners, entrepreneurs, and employees, who contribute to the vitality and prosperity of our Nation and create new job opportunities for our citizens."

The last sentence of the proclamation is, "I call upon all Americans to observe this week with appropriate ceremonies, activities, and programs that celebrate the achievements of small business owners and their employees and encourage the development of new small businesses." Well, isn't that special? With a whole two days of planning time, I wonder what meaningful ceremonies and programs could be pulled together. The other question I have is, why not make this an annual event?

Five Characteristics of Success in MLM, Part Deux

I'm excited for this blog entry, and I hope you are too. In the last entry, I talked about five characteristics I've seen in my experience that have led people to real success in the network marketing industry. In my opinion, you cannot be successful without them. With them, however, you are in a strong position to achieve your aspirations in this industry.

I want to explain to you how The SpiderWeb Marketing System holds to these characteristics and will help you develop them yourself.

1. They used their own products or services and could explain why you should use them.

This is an easy one. Its easy to sell a product when you use it yourself. A personal guarantee based on experience is a powerful tool. As you use The SpiderWeb Marketing System, you'll see the success, and as you tell others about it, they'll see your success and want to be a part of it as well.

2. They had a reason for doing the business and a business plan.

There are more reasons to do business other than just to make money, right now. While SpiderWeb will make money for you right now, it can also be viewed as an investment, with immediate, and long-term returns. The business network that you build with people with similar goals in mind will benefit you for many years.

3. They let the tools do the selling.

Let us do the work. This system has been created to sell itself for you. The tools are in place to advertise, market, and sell this system, all with no extra effort on your part. Some things really are simple.

4. They were always learning more about the business.

I think this holds true in all aspects of life. Those who stay on top of things, always ready to adapt to the different challenges and changes that come their way, are the ones who make it. At SpiderWeb Marketing, we are daily seeking ways to improve. In fact, we never stop getting better. We've got the best product on the market, and we'll always strive to make it even better.

5. They stayed in the game long enough to have a chance to succeed.

Patience is a virtue in any business. Think of the exponential growth model, which is shaped like a J. It starts out slow, when patience is required, then all of a sudden, boom! Exponential growth. That's how a network operates. From personal experience, I can tell you that the longer you are involved, the broader and more expansive your network will become, until soon you have cash coming in from the farthest reaches of the universe.

I%u2019m convinced that there are keys to success in life. Five of those keys are listed above. For some, they come naturally. For others, they have to be developed. Either way, they work. They just need a vehicle to turn attributes into assets. The SpiderWeb Marketing System is the way to develop those critical attributes and find the success that you work so hard for.

Perhaps you joined MLM for some of the same reasons that I did. I loved the idea of flexibilityI was excited by the comfort of working from homeI wanted to supplement my primary incomeI wanted to supplant my primary incomeI desperately needed to do something other than my previous jobI had a desire to be my own bossI was interested in entrepreneurshipI have a knack for networkingI loved the productI was conned into it. Perhaps you tried to do some of the same things that I did. I made a list of my 100 closest friends and family membersI pitched my new life changing product to everyone I knew and everyone I ever metI gave away hundreds of dollars worth of Samples and promotional materialsI went to the local mall and practiced "The 3 Foot Rule" (Attacked every person that came within 3 feet of me and pitched them on my business)I contacted old high school friends who I had not seen or talked to in years and told them I wanted to "re-connect" over lunchI went door to doorI c!
old called people from the local phone bookI called local businesses and tricked whoever answered the phone into coming in for a job interviewI spent THOUSANDS of dollars on leadsI made 100 cold calls a day to my "Hot Opportunity Seeker Leads"I spent THOUSANDS of dollars on training courses and "Proven Turnkey Systems"I tried a different Company, then another, then anotherI placed "Sizzle Cards" on gas station pumps and windshieldsI passed out FlyersI went to weekly Hype-filled "Rah!-Rah!" Opportunity Meetings or conference callsI attended boring company training events. Either way, however, the point is that I know that through The SpiderWeb Marketing System I can accomplish my goal to Gain financial freedomGain time freedomSpend my time with my familyObtain economic independenceEnjoy my time and my life my wayBe a leader in my businessShare my knowledge with othersShare my success with othersWork less hoursQuit my J.O.B. and be FREERetire earlyBecome a MillionaireBuy my !
