MLSP Mastermind Team and Buck Reed

This past week, the top producers in MLSP were kidnapped and taken on an “almost-all” expense paid retreat (we only had to pay our airfare) to the mountains…specifically Todd’s Chalet! (Nic, that was for you, lol)

We arrived on Monday with so much excitement and on Tuesday we went snowmobiling. Now if you have never been snowmobiling before, it is off the hook! This was my first time and to be honest, I was a little nervous (as we all usually are when it comes to stepping out our comfort zones). Yet, I was rared up and ready to go!

While in Dallas, TX at the 2010 More Heart Than Talent conference, I had the opportunity to meet several online marketers, offline marketers..who are mainly all network marketers building organizations and thriving sales forces.

The key factor is that while most attend events and never get to meet or connect with the “top earners”…I make it a point to..in a unique way..and not by using the usual groupie style I’ve seen far too often.

In this particular case I want to share a story with you that I will probably never forget….

I was at the MLM Lead System Pro table, where I had the distinct privilege of offering/selling my book: The Power of Leadership. After making sales and talking to several people, this one guy in a baseball cap and a cool biker jacket walked up to the table.

As I hang out with some of the leaders in MLM Lead System Pro, I feel inspired, like really inspired to share this with you.

1. It’s not what you know it’s who you know.

See when you network and get to know people, you can learn what you don’t know from those who LIKE you! Don’t be a peddler, be a sponge!

2. Marketing is not rocket science, it’s hard work.

If you are not seeing the traffic and lead flow you want, stop complaining! Figure out what may be wrong, ask someone to help you identify the glitch and be tireless in problem solving. If you don’t figure it out, it won’t figure itself out…either you’re all the way in or you’re all the way out.

3. You have to take the time to win.

I get chills up my spine when people call me wanting massive success but then immediately say they don’t have any time. Now I know we are all busy, but your success depends on you. What you put in is what u get out. Money can help solve a few time issues, but if you are in network marketing, you have to think about your sales team. Take the time to master skills and focus on teaching your team skills. Skills can be applied to any business, and that leads to long term growth and duplication.

Take the time my friend, take the time.

So there you have it. My thoughts for the day. Use the 3 concepts above, seriously, and focus in on massive success!

My Alma Mater is Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University. And for those of you who don’t know, there is something very distinct about FAMU Rattlers! See, we have a few words that speak true to who we are, inside…deep down inside.

In this video, Dr. Humphries, speaks light of these words. So even if you are not a FAMU Alumni, please listen because the spirit of a rattler is what you must have in this business. The ability to strike and never give up must resonate in your soul.

So please take a look at this brief video and in the comment section, let me know if you are ready to Strike!

As I have been on the hunt for my new place in Atlanta, something just came over me. And it is the fact that this is just like marketing.

See, with looking for a new place, you start off with what you want and need the result to have. Like # of bedrooms, square footage, and location. Then as you go out, you look for things that only fit that criteria within your budget. Some places you look at will be close, others will be totally off. But at the end of the day, you have to keep looking until you find the few that really match up the most and then make your final selection. At that point, happiness is found and if you were true to yourself, you realize that all that hard work and going in and out of places and negotiating the right price was all worth it!

Marketing is no different. You may start off wanting and needing a result of let’s say 20 leads a day. You decide what those leads should have and what type of lead you want. So go out and you start marketing/fishing for the right leads. Some of them will be ideal for you to work with and some will not. Some will be great for your trainings while those few will be perfect for your primary business. But nonetheless, you can’t stop until you find the strategy that works best for you and makes you happy.

So, as long as I NEED a place to live and not just WANT a place to live, I must go out everyday and make it happen. Comparatively, as long as you NEED you business to work, and not just WANT it to work, you will do whatever you must to make it work as well.

So decide right now whether you NEED your business to prosper or whether you WANT it to. That decision and you being true to the man/woman in the mirror will help you move forward..but I will say this, most people who operate out of a huge need/why, get results, no matter what..excuse-less all the way down the road..

So what’s it gonna be?

It amazes me how people know that they need to make a change, but almost refuse to in the same breath. But you, as the professional must remember at all times this…

The world programs us all to be cows, not rhinos.

So now that you are a rhino in the jungle, and you meet another cow, you must always remember that and know, the mind didn’t get that way overnight, and you and your awesome business won’t get it the other way overnight either!

One thing my mom always taught me was to go for it…to just do it..to do whatever you want to do, no matter what. She taught me that nothing ventured is nothing gained. And all I can say is I am so grateful for that programming. And I urge each one of you do practice the same. But, if you are so happy where you are, that progress and development is not necessary, then stay where you are. That choice is up to you!

However, despite those teaching and beliefs, I want you as marketers, whether online or offline to know, that people will not join you until they are ready. Do not force, do not beg, do not even “handle objections” in a loose sense. See when you do those things, people see you as being in opposition of them, and that is never a position you want to be in.

You want to always be a team player and you want them to see you as that as well. Let them observe you, which means you must be working the business actively. Let them see and hear from those you have helped along the way, and that means you must be actively working the business. Let them see that you don’t NEED them, but to do that you must be actively working the business.

So to wrap this up, be sure of what you do, be sure of who you are and be sure of who you’re looking for. With those energies floating around you all day, when the time is right, that person will join! Until then, keep it movin and keep prospecting!

I am so excited to share this message with you today. See, the man you are about to watch is my Frat Brother, the husband of one of my beautiful Sorors, and a Man of Power and Inspiration.

I saw his video and thought I would be crazy not to share it with you. So please enjoy and be sure to leave me a comment on your thoughts about the message delivered in the video!

Thanks Freddie, luv ya!

I will be the first to tell you how much I love our industry. But I can’t help but notice that many people still come into the game like it’s not serious enough to take time out to learn some essential skills.

While in L.A. the last weekend in Sept, I heard a very successful mlm entrepreneur say that our industry takes everyone, and how true that is. Medical schools don’t take everyone, colleges don’t take everyone, and McDonald’s doesn’t take everyone either who simply “wants” to start a franchise.

But for some reason, network marketing does. And as a result, people come in, with no training and expect miracles to happen…just not so.

So the one skill that in my opinion is more important than anything else, is the art of closing. See you can have all the leads in the world. But if you can’t close them, or sign them up, no money for you.

So the question of the hour is, how are YOUR closing skills? If they are great, then you should be signing people up left and right. If they need a little tweaking, then get with someone who you can speak with who can tighten you up! And if you don’t know how to close at all, then my friend, go get some training first!

Once everyone understands that millionaires in this industry are made by sealing the deal, and that you must learn how to do it properly, I think we can overall help more people to succeed and achieve their wildest dreams!

Since being online, I have learned a few key principles:

1. Build Your List
2. Build a rapport with the people on that list
2. Then recruit From That List

In that order!!!

Now along the way, I have met people who were not prospects of mine in a sense, but where mutuality of friendship grew. I never thought that meeting people online and working with them, would be such a fulfilling business. I mean I knew making money online was the goal and that in network marketing you have to meet people, but I am so grateful for some of the relationships I have developed.

As you continue and press forward to build your business, always remember this is a people business. If you don’t like people or working with them, then network marketing isn’t for you. It’s true! Just like if you don’t like computers, IT wouldn’t be for you..no difference.

Learn all you can, implement as much of that as you can, and teach others to do the same. In the end, it will all make sense. So for now, JUST DO IT! Ready SHOOT, aim my friend, that’s the name of the game!
