“2 in 72: Speed, Momentum, Success…” Simple Ideas Can Have Profound Results With Network Marketing

This is going to be a simple, short, and meaty post that if put to action will have a profound influence over your network marketing business, finances, and the rest of your life.

For some reason the other morning “2 in 72” kept popping into my mind. I had seen a title to a video e-mail come through my in box several times that I had put on the ‘back burner’ and actually never watched. Now the title kept chiming in my ears… “2 in 72, 2 in 72…”

I have to be honest in that I’m not completely sure what that message contained, but I fabricated my own assumptions based on my experience and success with network marketing.

In a nut shell, it has to do with finding two business partners in your first 72 hours of joining a network marketing company and helping them do the same. You may be thinking, so what, who cares, what’s the big deal. Keep reading and I show you what it potentially could mean for you and your organization’s success.

Believe it or not between 5-15% will be ready to say “yes” if you invite them to look at your product or service the correct way. (Get this skill right away! I can show you how below.)

Does the company you’re promoting make this easy or hard? You’ll have to evaluate that for yourself.

This works for MLM, generating your own affiliate sales for your products, the membership sites you own, even growing a club, organization, or church congregation. It’s weird that way but true…

There Are Immediate Benefits:

  • Fast start for everyone.
  • It can be duplicated.
  • It’s simple.
  • It’s easy.
  • It gets people into significant money right away.
  • Everyone knows 25-30 people who could immediately benefit from your product or service to call right out of the gate.
  • There are incentives usually attached to having a fast start.
  • And most companies will show you a lot of recognition for achieving promotions quickly.

Choosing Your (2) Partners:

  • [Attributes] Action takers who are motivated, have a positive attitude, influential, entrepreneurial, energetic, have aspirations…etc
  • Get a commitment! Posture yourself and don’t work with people who are not 100% committed.
  • Are they willing to focus their energy for the next 72 hours/3 days to sign up their 2 people with your help?
  • Ask them why they want to do this…
  • What are they willing to do or commit to for the next 72 hours? (They’ll look to you to see what you’ve done or are doing.)
  • Once you help them get their two, do it again (rinse and repeat)!

Day 0 (You)
Day 3 (2)
Day 6 (4)
Day 9 (8)
Day 12 (16)
Day 15 (32)
Day 18 (64)
Day 21 (128)
Day 24 (256)
Day 27 (512)
Day 30 (1024)

Think about your marketing plan. Is it a binary or unilateral? Choose a cost of one of your company’s basic packs and estimate your team’s monthly volume. What would your check look like? Shocking isn’t it? Exciting, is the word that comes to my mind!

  • What kinds of incentives could you or your team earn?
  • What would be your income at the end of 30 days with that many people on your team?
  • What could you do with that kind of financial freedom?
  • Who could you help?
  • What charities would you support?

These are the kinds of questions that excite me and should excite you too!

Use Your Secret 72 Hour Power Source To Win Now!

When we talk with someone, we all have an innate ability to sense the other person’s belief level in what we are talking about. Have you ever noticed that ability in yourself?

In business, it is your belief level that will be a major deciding factor in your success.

If there is fear or hesitation it is because what you are doing or saying doesn’t match what you truly believe.

Have you ever been pitched to and even thought the product/opportunity/service was good, you just weren’t convinced? Think back to that moment.

The reason you weren’t convinced was because they didn’t believe it! They didn’t believe it and that feeling was transferred to you. And you could tell.

With that in mind, consider that right now, in the first 72 hours of joining, your excitement and belief are sky-high. It is a sense of utter belief in what you are doing and an anticipation of what’s possible and that is very, very powerful.

And that is why you must take action NOW.

Making a List (with a twist)

Most online marketers are fond of telling us that making a list of friends and family doesn’t work.

My 20+ years experience in the Network Marketing industry says that making a list is an essential first step for success in Network Marketing whether you’re building online or offline. The key to success is not the list itself, but how you use it. And therein lays the secret for jump-starting your business and achieving success fast.

When you build your list, you must approach it like a gold prospector. Your list isn’t the gold. It’s the ground in which you prospect for gold. You need to sift through it to find your golden nuggets.

Finding Gold

Now you have your list, it’s time to find your gold. Remember (especially at this stage) you don’t want to just ‘get people in’.  You are only looking to enroll two key people in 72 hours… Two golden nuggets.

So from your list, if you could, who would you choose to have on your team?

It is important that you don’t just list people who say ‘yes’ to everything and then do nothing. You want good people. You want action takers!

Items that hold people back from talking to the people on their list…

  • Fear
  • Limiting beliefs
  • Lack of taking action
  • Lack of skill/knowledge on what to say to potential partners
  • Lack of confidence in self and/or product
  • Lack of leadership/support
  • Poor marketing offer or message from company. Not compelling.
  • Laziness
  • Lack of vision
  • Lack of intention
  • No “Why” or verbalized reason for doing this venture.
  • Negative self-talk, “I don’t know anyone…My friends don’t have any money…”

Time to squash these beliefs! These are lies from the pit of hell!

In closing…

(#1) Are you one of these people with all the excuses?

OR

(#2) Are you ready to take control of your life, build a dynasty of wealth for your family, and spread the HOPE of prosperity to the world?

If you see yourself as a member of #2, message me and take action quickly. I’m only going to work personally and directly with two people this month and help them duplicate everything that is outlined here today.

Wishing you all the best in your ventures,

PS Don’t take my personal mentoring bonuses lightly… I’ll hold your hand and personally show you my exact methods for earning outrageous incentives in record time, how to get thousands and thousands of visitors to your blog each month, and how you too can grow an online network of colleagues rivaled by few… Give me a shout if you’re serious about getting the results you deserve.

“Take 5 With The Tribe” Face To Face With Val Wilcox

Continuing my “Take 5 With The Tribe” interview series today with Val Wilcox.

Val has been a member of the Tribe Mastermind Community since February. She shares her views on why discovering your passion is so important, connecting with people authentically and why becoming a member of the Tribe is so impactful to your business.

The first question I asked Val is regarding what she is most passionate about. What fires her up every morning as her feet hit the floor. Val is most passionate about supporting others in realizing their potential. Whether through coaching or blogging, she shares the opportunities that life has to offer to learn, grow and create. Val choose this path is because she feels that people can move through life letting the winds of fate bounce them here, there and everywhere, or they can take action and move towards their dreams. She believes that discovering your passion is the first step in creating a better life. Through personal development and self improvement steps, Val enjoys supporting others as they find their passion.

Since Val uses online social media and her blog to connect with people, I asked her to share one tip that you could use today to enhance your online presence. Her main focus is on being authentic, open and transparent in all your interactions with others.

Val shares these important tips:

  • Be yourself, allow people to get to know you.
  • Engage your followers in conversations and interact with them.
  • Maintain a high degree of integrity in all your interactions online.
  • Be positive and supportive.

To wrap this up, I asked Val what is the most important reason for being part of the Tribe.

Creating lasting connections with positive-minded people has enriched Val’s life. The sense of community within the Tribe is why she enjoys this so much. Opportunities like Mastermind groups and business ventures are key components that have enhanced her online experience.

Blogging For Beginners: “What is the best way to get people to comment and interact with me on my blog?”

Remember as you create awesome content, it’s also important to ask insightful questions to engage your readers. Do your best to keep the dialog open with your readers by commenting back. There is a great WordPress Plugin you can use to nest your comments under each commentator. It’s called WordPress Thread Comment. (see my post on it)

In the past with my WordPress theme, if I wanted to comment back my comment would end up at the bottom of the comments and not connected with the comment I wanted to respond to. Not any more. I use the Empowered Theme and nestles right with the person I want to reply to. This builds my direct relationship with that person and encourages them to come back for more interaction. If you’re not blogging with the Empowered Theme and you’re having issues like I was then you’ll definitely like this WP plugin.

CommentLuv is also a fantastic plugin to allow your commentators to leave a link back to their blog after their signature line in their comment on your blog. I see it as a kind thank you gesture or motivator to be a regular commentator. The benefit to them is potential traffic to their blog and it also gives them a back link which is valuable for Search Engine Optimization (SEO), as Google looks at how many backlinks are connected to blogs to determine their Page Ranking, etc…

As you visit blogs and comment on the content you want to be able to leave your picture behind. That’s called your Gravatar. You can go to http://gravatar.com and quickly upload a picture to be placed with your blog comments around the web. Make sure it’s the same e-mail that you’re using within the General Settings of your blog so that everything links up neatly.
