Cruel advice.

Cruel advice. by Tom "Big Al" Schreiter

I get a lot of calls asking for network marketing advice.

People ask if they should try a certain strategy, how certain leaders become successful, which type of presentation gives the best results, and what is my advice on their new brochure.

And who are most of these callers?

Many (but not all) fall into one category. They are people who spend time investigating, analyzing, and looking for an easy, cheap way to become an overnight success. They find it easier and safer to stay in a state of continuous investigation to avoid actually doing something to build their business.

My advice to many of these callers:

"Go out and actually DO something. Maybe even make your first prospecting presentation. Even if you make 20 more calls investigating networking theories, nothing will happen."

Okay, I'm not very popular with some of the callers, but I do feel I should at least tell them the truth.

What about you?

Do you have distributors who do everything EXCEPT contact prospects? Are they always putting together a new brochure or presentation that will fix all the problems of networking? Are they so busy with "busy work" that they don't have time to recruit?

What are you going to tell them?

Are you going to say,

"Nice brochure. You're really accomplishing a lot."

Or, are you going to tell them the truth? Will you say,

"Go out and actually DO something that will build your business. Make a phone call. Make a presentation. Sign up a new distributor."
