Training people in the MLM industry, I get asked asked this question frequently.
“What am I doing wrong?”
I often get emails that read like this:
Warren, I talk to at least 10 new, prospects a day, and no one is signing up. I keep sending e-mails with my company and product info. No one wants to close the deal. They’re not willing to join up, or I can’t get back in touch with them again. Most don’t review what I send them and keep putting me off. Regardless of how good the meeting or conversation goes, no-one signs up. I don’t know what my problem is. !
So…. what’s going on here?
The first thing that I question is this:
Are the 10 new prospects quality prospects, or simply targets?
Here’s the reality of the situation…
You’re either approaching cold prospects that are not interested in the MLM industry (and you didn’t ask questions to find that out to begin with qualification) or you’re “attracting” 10 new people a day with your so-called online marketing who are currently active in network marketing but aren’t actively looking for what you have. These online leads may become prospects in the future, but they are not today, so you’d best start attracting more that 10 per day!
If you’re buying mlm leads… best of luck to you! They’re more likely to be”suspects” at best.
However, if you have built a lead generation system like what I help people build at MLM Growth Explosion, or are using some other method like PPC, then we are talking QUALITY prospects … and 10 leads a day like that might just be the real deal!
I get questions about why people don’t sign up after getting company info and promotional videos and such.
Read this carefully – repeat it if you need to: people seldomly watch a “company presentation” you sent via email and and feel inclined to immediately sign up.
It doesn’t work that way.
Network marketing is a RELATIONSHIP business. You must reach out and connect. GET ON THE PHONE and make yourself stand out from the rest…
If your goal is to attract leaders… then be one by letting your prospects hear it in your voice.
You must be different from everyone else.
Don’t just rely on company presentations, inject some of YOU in the equations. People want to join with a leader…not a company. If you’re looking for MLM rockstars you must be THE leader they want to follow.
Simple as that.
Another complaint I hear often: them again. Or they complain that their “prospects” never review the information and continually stall.
So… why is this happening?
They were either never truly a real prospect to begin with (your qualification process involved whether they had a pulse or not) OR you never got to their REASON WHY and you didn’t create a RELATIONSHIP with your prospect. In other words, they were seeing you as a salesman instead of a leader who will help them get to where they want to be .
I also hear complaint of having good conversations with people but just can’t sign them up.
I see this a lot, especially with inexperienced networkers, mostly because they listen to the prospect but are unable to control the direction of the conversation.
You’re not there to be a sounding board, or to “chit-chat.”
Our job is to interview and qualify our prospects. In the process of doing this, we buid a relationship, but that doesn’t mean we become their friend.
Direct the flow, by asking GOOD QUESTIONS… and in the process qualify-qualify-qualify! If the answers you’re getting are not to your liking, your call should last no more than 2-3 minutes. Most networkers talk way too much to the wrong people. Don’t be one of them.
If your goal is to sponsor more reps, start with a critical review of your prospecting process. What’s good about your process? What’s bad?. And what are you NOT doing?
If you still have questions, get in touch with me. Let’s see if we can get you some answers.

Online forums are a fantastic reminder of the influence the internet has had on society. Using forums to connect with your market is a natural progression.
Forums are online communities where individuals can discuss topics ranging from fly fishing to breast feeding to internet business. Discussions are conducted by posting notes to the forum. A single discussion is called a ‘thread’ and most forums have several – even hundreds – of threads going at any time.
What is truly remarkable about the use of forums is the personal quality of the discussions. Read some of the posts on forums such as ivillage.com and you’ll soon see that the members become more like neighbors (and even friends) than strangers connected only by the keyboard and monitor in front of them.
Where brick and mortar businesses used to prosper based on their involvement in the community – online businesses now have a neighborhood all their own – online forums.
How can participating in a forum help YOUR business?
NETWORKING:
Online forums are a fantastic place to connect with others who are knowledgeable about your business. You probably cater to the same audience and share a common interest. If your businesses compliment one another you might just find a highly profitable partnership or joint venture.
Even if you don’t find a working relationship you may find the referrals or discussions highly beneficial.
TRAFFIC BUILDING:
Along with the referrals you may get when you’ve developed a trusted online presence with other members of the forum, you are also likely to attract targeted visitors to your website.
If the forum permits you to post a signature (your website URL) onto the posts then you can be sure that some of the members and quite likely some of the ‘lurkers’ (people who view but don’t post) will come check out your site.
EDUCATION:
Using the forums wisely can open you up to a great education. Whether it is from fellow entrepreneurs in your field or experts and other posters – you are participating in an ‘inner circle’ type discussion that may open your eyes to new developments and opportunities in your business.
ADDICTIVE:
The only downside is the highly addictive atmosphere. With members posting from all over the world it can be difficult to reign in your viewing time on forums.
On the flip side, other members are hopefully as interested in what you have to say and you may quickly develop a reputation as a reliable source for information.
Be very cautious to follow forum rules. Never spam a forum – your aim should be to participate in a conversation, not interrupt it. Have fun and watch your business grow!

?China Coating Online News U.S. scientists at Stanford University, made the use of nanotechnology-based fast-ordinary office paper for ultra-lightweight, flexible battery or super capacitor. Related Articles published in this week’s U.S. “National Academy of Sciences” on-line edition.
Materials Science and Engineering at Stanford University assistant professor Yi Cui (phonetic) said it would provide a paper covered with silver nanowires with carbon nanotubes and coating raw materials can be turned into a good conductive energy storage device. He said that these nano-materials with a diameter of a small three-dimensional structure, which enable nano-materials, dressing more closely attached to the surface of the paper fibers, making a more durable battery or super capacitor. This paper can achieve a super capacitor, or 40000 times charge-discharge cycles, or at least comparable to the number of lithium battery charge and discharge an order of magnitude higher. The nano-materials, more efficient charge transfer can also make it more advantages than conventional capacitors, the effect would be better.
Research team tried a plastic substrate made of nano-materials for energy storage devices, dressings and paper and as a close bond resistance, this paper as the base of the battery than the battery more durable plastic substrate. More importantly, the paper batteries are not afraid of crumple and fold, or even their being immersed in acidic solution, it will not affect performance, but also to effectively reduce production costs.
Cui Yi, said paper-based flexibility to achieve a variety of intelligent applications, such as brushes can be such a high electrical conductivity of the dressing smear on the wall above, and its fast becoming a large-scale energy storage device. When it with light-emitting diode (LED) and so connected, it can provide sufficient electricity for the LED source. In addition, this technology can be used for power distribution networks, will generate surplus electricity at night up centralized storage and ease pressure on electricity during the day time peak. In the wind farms and solar energy storage systems can also achieve similar applications. It is worth noting that the paper super capacitor may also be used to electric or hybrid vehicles into. Two kinds of cars depends on the rapid transmission of electricity, while the paper capacitor high ratio of surface area and volume, which created its presence in the automotive application of a great advantage.
As a leader in nanotechnology, the University of California at Berkeley professor of chemistry Peidong Yang, said the technology’s ability to achieve in the short term commercial potential. He believes that this technology will not just be limited to the field of energy storage devices, and its low cost and flexible properties make it fit with any electrical device electrode, the prospects quite broad. More importantly, we can use the most common life of the paper as a substrate, through a simple process, made of conductive features strong, which will fundamentally nanotechnology will be linked with people’s daily lives.
The public faces a barrage of newspapers, telephone and direct mail advertisements promising quick wealth and fortune through “too good to be true” opportunities.
Perhaps you have been among those invited to take advantage of such opportunity by entering a drawing for oil gas leases on federal lands. The ad says: write for details or send a check to cover the cost of filing fee and other services, and have your name entered in the drawing.
It is really possible to strike it rich? How slim are the odds and what are the risks?
The purpose of this report is to acquaint you with the procedures involved regarding oil and gas leasing form the Government.
TYPES OF LEASES
Lands that are not within any known geologic structure of a producing oil and gas field, commonly known as “wildcat” lands, are subject to leasing to the first qualified person making application for a lease. Such lease is termed non competitive since the applicant is entitled to the lease without competiting bidding.
LOCATION OF TRACTS
Many tracts offered for non competitive leasing are in the Western States where most of the public land is located. These are the states of Alaska, California, Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Utah, and Wyoming. Occasionally, a few tracts in Washington and Oregon are offered.
Tracts in the Midwest and East are also put up for non competitive leasing. The tracts are primary in Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Louisiana, Michigan, Mississippi and Ohio.
HOW THE DRAWINGS WORK
Each State Office of the Bureau of Land Management prepares and posts a list of lands within its jurisdiction that are available for releasing. These tracts range in size form 40 acres up to a maximum of 10,240 acres. These list a may be viewed in the State Offices or obtained from the State Offices by mail for a small charge, usually $5 to $10 per list.
If any lands are available for releasing, the Bureau of Land Management State Office posts its list on the first day of business for the months of February, April, June, August, October, and December. Applications are accepted until the close of business on the 15th working day after the list is posted. If more than one application is received for a given tract, a drawing is held to decide who will get the lease. All application for simultaneous oil and gas leases must be submitted to the Wyoming State Office, which maintains a central computerized system.
QUALIFICATIONS AND LIMITATIONS
Federal oil and gas leases may be obtained and held by any citizen of the United States; however, no lease may be acquired by a minor, but it may be issued to a legal guardian or trustee in behalf of the minor. Associations of citizens and corporations under the laws of the United States or of the State also qualify.
Aliens may not hold any interest in leases. They may, however, own or control stock in a corporation holding leases, if the laws of their country do not deny similar privileges to citizens of the United States.
No person, association, or corporation may hold, own or control oil and gas leases for than 246,080 acres in any one State.
HOW TO FILE
Applications may be filed on any of the parcels shown on the list posted in the BLM State Office. The parcel applied for must be identified by the number shown on the list.
Each offer to lease must be submitted on a official Automated Simultaneous Oil and Gas Lease Application (forms 3112-6), The applications must be fully completed and personally signed in ink by the applicant, or anyone authorized to sign on behalf of the applicant, during the filing period.
Each part B application form must be accompanied by a non refundable $75 filing fee for each parcel, and the first year’s rental of $1 per acre or fraction thereof.
Each applicant must contain the actual business or residential address of the applicant. Addresses of third parties filing on behalf of the applicant are not permitted.
An applicant may file, or have an interest in, only one application for any one parcel; however, an applicant may file, or have an interest in, one application each for as many different parcels as he or she wishes.
THE DRAWING
After the close of the filing period on the 25th working day after the list is posted, a computer-generated random selection is conducted at the Wyoming State Office. Because of the heavy volume of applicants that must be processed, selection does not occur until the following month.
One applicant is randomly selected for each numbered parcel. If the applicant selected is unacceptable or rejected, a reselection will be made by computer from the remaining applications. Each applicant is notified of the results of his application in the random selection. The advance rental will be refunded to nonwinners.
CHOOSING A PARCEL
It should be remembered that these lands have been leased previously and are not known to contain deposits of oil or gas. Neither the Bureau of Land Management nor any other Federal agency can make any recommendation concerning the potential value of any parcel offered for non competitive leasing.
Most applicants use a “Filing Service” to select parcels. Some service charge a fee to evaluate parcels on the basis of geological and marketing data; others offer maps and information about the activities of oil companies operating in the area where the various parcels are located. A third type of filing service charges a fee for selecting a parcel from the list posted by the Bureau and assisting the applicant in filing application.
Neither BLM, nor any other Federal agency, endorses any filing service. None are in any way with the Federal Government.
Be wary of filing services that paint an overly optimistic picture of your chances of winning and making money. Consider these firms may file for hundreds and even thousands of clients on a limited number of parcels, and the more interest these firms can generate in drawings, the more applications will be filed on each parcel, and the less chance each individual will have of obtaining a lease.
The names of firms or individuals that specialize as filing services may be located through business or professional associations, through oil and gas trade publications or chambers of commerce. They sometimes are listed under the heading “Federal Leasing Services” in the yellow pages of telephone directories.
Anyone considering the use of a filing services should carefully examine what services are offered and how big a premium is being charged beyond the required $75 filing fee and the advance rental that must be paid to BLM for each filing.
Possible source of information on a filing service are the Better Business Bureau in the area where the firm is located and the State, county or local consumer protection agency.
LEASE TERM AND CONDITIONS
The lease grants the lessee the right to explore and drill for, extract, remove and dispose of oil and gas deposits, except helium, that may be found in leased lands. Such leases are issued for a period of 10 years and so long thereafter as oil and gas are produced in paying quantities. The lessee cannot build a house on the land, cultivate the land, or remove any minerals other than oil and gas from the leased land.
Before any drilling operation can commence, the lessee or his operator must furnish a bond to assure compliance with all the lease terms, including protection of the environment.
WHAT IS THE LEASE WORTH
The value of oil and gas leases varies greatly. None of the tracts offered has known potential for oil and gas production. In certain cases, non competitive leases have brought substantial profit to the winners. Generally, however, these leases average only a few dollars per acre if resold.
SELLING OR ASSIGNING A LEASE
Many people who acquire an oil and gas lease through the leasing system do not intend to drill for oil or gas. Often the motive for entering the drawing is to sell the lease to an oil company for a profit.
If the lease is located in an area which may be attractive to industry, interested buyers may make an offer.
A willing buyer may offer a lump sum for a lease. In some cases, the original lessee can negotiate to retain a royalty interest in any future production from the lease.
CAUTION
Any person who considers entering the oil and has drawing should keep certain facts in mind:
* The land offered for leasing was formerly included in oil and gas leases that expired, terminated, or were relinquished or canceled.
* The land involved is not recognized as being within a know geological structure of a producing oil or gas field.
* Your offer to lease is strictly a gamble. Since a very large percentage of the tracts won are never drilled on, your parcel may not have any potential for oil and gas even if you win the drawing.
* the more desirable parcels may attract hundreds, even thousands of applications.
WHAT TO DO NEXT TO PARTICIPATE
After carefully reading this report, if you wish to participate in the drawings of your own, here is how to proceed:
Select the geographical area that interest
Locate the BLM State Office that is responsible for the area you have selected. Write that state for information. The State Office will send you application forms and tell you how much it will cost you to receive by mail the list from which you must select your tracts for the drawing.

Can you boost profits significantly by adding audio to your E-Bay auctions? According to a recent article on a net business site the answer is a definite yes. In fact, one e-book author suggested that adding audio to your auctions could potentially increase bids by as much as 22% over auctions without audio.
A recent trend showing up on a lot of websites is the addition of an audio clip. The clip is a personal message by the author or the website owner encouraging you to take advantage of what they offer.
The psychology behind this technique is really Marketing 101. It’s called personalization. An audio clip added to your Ebay auction allows you to personally tell the potential bidder about the product. Using your own voice allows you to make contact with the bidder on a personal level that written words cannot. Because, that’s what your E-Bay auction really is…It’s just a long written classified ad asking the bidder to make an offer to purchase your item.
Prior to the advent of the telephone the only reliable way to communicate long distance was by writing letters. It was not unusual back then for lovers to write each other daily or weekly. The decline of letter writing is a well documented event that coincides with the advent of the telephone. The power of the human voice to convey a message triumphs that of the written word.
With audio you can describe the item, tell the bidder why you are selling it or even communicate with them about your refund policy or provide your contact information. The possibilities are almost unlimited as a way to establish a rapport with the bidder.
There are some technical elements to adding audio to your E-Bay auctions. The simplest way is to upload a .wav or Mp3 file to a website and provide a link to the file. When the bidder clicks on the link his or her computer will automatically recognize the file and play it with the audio player on the bidders computer.
There are some drawbacks to this method. If the bidder’s computer doesn’t recognize the file it won’t play. The overall effect is not as professional as it could be and it distracts the bidder. If you are a reasonably tech savvy type you can easily deal with the drawbacks of this approach.
For the rest of us, there are a number of software solutions and websites that will simplify the task of adding audio to our E-Bay auctions. These different programs and websites range from charging a one time fee to monthly fee’s for the use of the program. The good news is that many of them will let try them for as little as $1 for a trial basis or let you download a demo version to see how well it will work for you.
