For Years I Struggled to Make Less than Minimum Wage Until I Found The Secret – My Story Revealed

Restored from the Empower Network archive (2011–2017), lightly edited to meet our current advertising standards. Views are the original author’s.

It wasn’t long before I started marketing on the internet in my home business.  You see to understand the why you have to understand the how.

So how did begin marketing on the internet?  Why should you listen to this random guy you happened to find talking to you?

Because when you take the time to read not only the why…

But the how…

You will come to the same conclusion I did and you will be able to find the answer that you are looking for to build your business…

While having a life.

I have a simple formula and a hand-full of commitments that I will give you if your willing to take action and have helped me:

Sponsor people in countries as far away as Germany and Norway without leaving my home or making cold calls.

Go on business trips to Costa Rica where I was able to sink my toes into the white warm sand as I stared across the bay with crystal clear water as I watched the sun set over the jungle and mastermind with marketing giants.

Having people call me to just get into my opportunity instead of the listening to a voice mailbox when I sure as hell know I am just being avoided.

It hurts doesn’t it?

But As crazy as it sounds…

I have literally watched money deposit directly into my bank account as I clicked the refresh button.

So why did I get into marketing on the internet?  Because I was tired of the, “I will think about it and get back to you later,” bull.

I was tired of the concept that if I got five people into my downline, that for some reason that was going to magically UNLOCK the compensation plan.

I was tired of being stood up when I knew for a fact that if the people I were meeting would  put as much effort into this opportunity as they do to make their boss happy

They would, in fact, multiply their monthly income…

In other words my friend… I was forced to get online and I will never, ever, go back.

Don’t get me wrong…

I have been in a fair share of standard and high-end multi-level marketing opportunities.

I have sat on the edge of a balcony staring down into the living room at strangers faces in my parents home as my mother pitched the opportunity of a lifetime.

I have ran around town to home meetings.

Been stood up…

Called people only to get a voice mail when I knew they were home.

I have struggled with my warm market and worked for a month to make less than minimum wage as sad as that is.

I am sure you can relate?

You see I got online to figure out how all these people in my MLM opportunity were doing all this work and getting all this money deposited into their bank accounts without lifting a finger.

These magical mystical creatures who live in a land far, far away who not only could walk over water but could also shoot lasers from their eyes and sponsor people just by looking at them funny.

Get real right?  Who are these people?

I came across what is know as MLSP which only confused me further.

It was literally like being locked in a room with a bunch of people,

successful people,

who were all talking about how they were marketing on the internet.

Sad thing was…

I am a plumber who just bought this little rinky dink computer, never ever had a Facebook account or knew why I would need one and sure as heck didn’t understand what the hell  a capture page was…

I was literally like being in a room full of people you were trying to learn from who all spoke Spanish when all you knew was English.

Have you been there?

I struggled for months thinking thoughts like,

“Maybe if I just get under a leader I will experience the wave of success they are having.”

All these people were creating results in their business and I wasn’t able to just,

Figure it out…

You see the thought of marketing on the internet was a new concept to me.

It was hard for me to understand that there were people out there recruiting and making money:

–On Auto-Pilot –

I was stuck in the old-school way of doing things which is what:

Call your friends and family.

Prospect on the phone.

Wonder around town, looking for opportunities to get people interested risking being kicked out of malls and stores for “harassment”…

Yeah those ways work…  But they are so limited you can’t expect to build a business like that.  I was fooled into thinking so.

Do not get me wrong…  I know this sounds like a rant but in order for me to give you the key that allowed me to unlock the secret to recruiting on demand and generating income on auto pilot

You need to know why I found the answer. How I unlocked the secret I am going to give you.

I know you understand. 

Marketing on the Internet for Dummies

Marketing on the Internet is very simple if you strip it down to it’s bare bones.  Marketing on the internet consists of 3 primary “pillars” as I like to refer to them.

1. Home Base

2. Advertising

3. Follow-up

We will cover number 2 and 3 but number one is where you have to take action.

Advertising isn’t as intimidating as it sounds.  Essentially what you want to do with your advertising is sell “your brand” and diffuse your prospect’s objections.

In English?

Essentially on the internet you have to understand that once you do the work once…  It stays there for a long time.

Some methods cost money and others are free.

That doesn’t make one better than the other and I have been highly trained to use both and so has my team.

Back to where we were…

Being that you wont be there to hand hold your prospective customer or recruit you need to give them all the information they need to know to:

1. Get started

2. Get thier questions answered

3. Show them that their objections are legit but your opportunity is what they need.

That’s really it…

Everything else is just icing on the cake…

Beautiful thing is… Here you can make your cake and eat it too?

lol

Whether you choose to step in front of a camera, write a blog post, create an ad or record an audio they need these elements or you will lose the sale.

Plain and simple.

The Devil Is In The Details…

The part a lot of internet marketers and newbie marketers forget it the follow up.  You see a lot of people believe that if they just stand in front of the camera and talk about:

How the owner of the company hiked through the mountains of South America to pick this magical fruit and started bottling it that people are just gonna be chomping at the bit to join you.

Fact is people don’t join companies they join people.  When you understand this concept-

When I understood this concept…

You can totally transform not only your life but your business and that is what we plan on doing here today.

So say you get someone to give you their email address and you just lose it.

Days go by…

Weeks – Months…

And that person who was so excited to just hear you present your opportunity has now faded away.

So what happened?

Part of the sales process includes follow-up and is one of the most crucial details when marketing on the internet.

You see people need to know you -need to trust you- they need to be comfortable and not feel like they are being sold but instead are choosing to buy.

What better way to do this than by telling them your story?

What story?

Well anyone that you can link or relate to why they should join you.

It is all about striking a chord within your prospects that makes them say,”I have been there and I know exactly how that feels.”

When you can do that your customer will feel like they know you.

Primarily this is done through email or social media.

That is where the prospect went in the scenario we just played out.

But now that you know that… You wont have that problem especially after I give you the 3 weird tricks I use to get prospects ready to buy and into my business.

Home Base – Where Are You?

This in my opinion is the most important piece of the puzzle when marketing on the internet.

This is where people come to see you. To read what you have to say.  To watch your videos. To connect with you. To ask you questions before they buy and generally where you will build “YOUR BRAND”.

To illustrate I have a cool story:

Man walks into a resteraunt and sits down like he has time and time again in the past.  As he sits there looking over the menu that he has memorized he can remember the taste of each dish.

You see this man has been coming to this resteraunt for years.  Eaten every meal it has to offer and has even had the opportunity to test out some new recipes.

As he sits the under the dim light and quiets atmosphere he can hear the sound of people talking quietly, enjoying themselve and enjoying thier meals.

A smile comes over his face as he sees the waiter make eye contact and begin to move across the room to take his order for the evening.

The waiter asks, “What will you be having tonight, sir?”

The man replies, “Give me old Garret’s special.  You know the one he always make special for me.”

The waiter immediatly gets a sorry look on his face and replies, “Garret has decided to resign here and go make carve his own path in the industry sir. I am sorry but you will have to choose another dish.”

The man sits there, speechless and instead of choosing another meal that will be made by another chef, not Garret, he folds his menu.

Lays it on the table.

And begins to push his way out of the booth and walks out of the resteraunt.

So what happened?

Why did the man just get up and walk away even though he knew exactly what he would get from the menu?

It is because the man didn’t care about the menu.  He didn’t care about the waiter.  He really didn’t care about the restaurant or the atmosphere.

He cared about the person he trusted that had been making his delicious meals for years.

He cared about the chef that would come out of the kitchen to make sure all his guests enjoyed their meal.

He cared about the chef that not only knew him as a customer but as a person.

Garret has a brand.

That man walked out of the restaurant to go and find Garret.

Are people going to do the same for you?
