Why Gurus Suck at MLM

Branded as: Entrepreneur school Comments

Yeah, I said it, gurus suck at MLM.  The reason is because any time you appear like a guru in network marketing is will hurt your ability to build a team because people think they have to be like you.  This is a big problem on the Internet because the Internet gurus who can build a list and generate leads can easily become top recruiters but the big money in MLM comes from massive duplication many levels deep and that requires a simple system that anyone can follow. See what I mean in this video…

So if you are building an MLM team remember that people are watching everything you do and they will want to build the business the way you are building it.  So keep things very simple and remember this is a business of the masses. You only get paid when many many people take action.  The only way to get many many people to take action is to keep it very simple.

GOOD NEWS: If your primary goal is to make money online from home there are some very powerful options to achieve that goal in combination with your MLM business.  To learn more about this jump on a very special webinar this Wednesday at 5pm PST revealing the truth about making money online.

This is only the beginning and there is so much more to come. To stay in the loop about MLM and making money online put your info below and I promise to only share with you the TRUTH.

  • Great video! And dead on..... I love and hate the new internet tool for network marketing.
  • hard lesson to learn. You see the 'high rollers', those successful who built an organization of THOUSANDS in mere HOURS!
    The excitement carries you in, but if your goal is to match those who may have decades of experience and contacts to draw from, you'll soon run out of steam.
    Push yourself, but you must work ON yourself each and every day.

    Mia,

    I wish I could possess your videos, however, I am handicapped by the payment system you imposed. I can only use the WESTERN UNION or Moneygram to settle the required payment.

    Will it be possible for you to accept my proposed payment method?

    Great stuff !!! I network with many people in different network marketing companies, and we all agree that the foundation of MLM is duplication!

    Online marketing is awesome--no joke!! But it's not something people should do if they're new, and on a tight budget. I learned that the hard way.... If you're new, and on a tight budget, learn to make some money offline first. You'll be earning offline income as you're building your website and online marketing campaignes.

    So will you still be promoting MLSP to your new recruits?
    If not, then when would you promote mlsp or not promote it?
    Best.

  • Mia, Great training video! I've been in the MLM industry for 24 years (as my main source of income) and your video was a great reminder for me to continue doing what duplicates and not to get to caught up in the online hype! Yes, I'm working on mastering new online skills, as we move forward into the next decade, BUT the ability to build relationships and Develop People is a far more important skill. And when you become the issue (the guru) in your NWM business, your business is in decline.
  • Great video Mia! It is a fact that people are far too often putting to much energy and effort on short term gain, i.e. affiliate marketing. The truth of the matter is the "liberty" that residual income provides is what matters most and therefore should garner our highest priority in our daily activities if one desires financial success. Sometimes I feel that these online "How-To" systems tend to gloss over the face-to-face communication skills that are so necessary in creating a strong organization under them in their choose network marketing business. You learned early on how to communicate with your prospects. The message you brought was one who actually listened & cared about the prospect's needs wants and don't wants not just their hot button. This is key to your success yesterday, today and tomorrow (your video show that). There are some great off-line training courses from people like Todd Falcone, Tim Sales, Dani Johnson and Kim Klaver that can help individuals with their communication skills but unfortunately to often online marketing wants to create waves by saying off-line marketing no longer works. That's BS because every week I get success stories for my network marking company, and these revolve around doing it the so called "old fashion" way. On-line marketing should be recognized as a tool to attract prospects but it won't build your business. It is up to the individual to build it face-to-face via phone or in person and the key to doing that is to become a effective communicator.

    Networkmarketing is the way to go!!! Great Video!
  • Thank you Frank:-)
  • tysonsmith
    ABSOLUTELY!
    I totally agree. Not everyone can be a guru. It's not duplicatible.
    But the essence of Network Marketing lies in duplication.
    It needs to be something that everyone can do. Not everyone can be a "Guru".
    The gurus are making most of their money off product launches and affiliating with other gurus doing launches.

    Yeah, so I say be yourself and build a team of people who can be successful being themselves. Network Marketing should be something that everyone can do.
  • You are sooo right! Thanks for watching, have a great day!
  • MIA - you nailed baby. I love how you talk about recruiting quickly due to online tactics but the truth is - THEN WHAT.. what do people do once they get the leads and the conversions. Very (VERY) important to have a back end system to plug people into once they do join your team. great job.
  • Thanks Drew!
  • StuartLDennison
    Its videos like this Mia that make people want to connect with you!! You give the straight forward honest truth and nothing but the truth!!
  • Thanks Stuart, you are awesome and a great leader too!
  • Mia, this was a very straight forward - no chaser video! Thanks for keeping it real!
  • Thank you Monica, have a fantastic day sweetie!
  • Hey Mia, Great and honest video about Gurus, more people need to use common sense. I still believe the internet is a great tool and videos are the key to making it personal. But nothing can replace person to person and face to face relationships. I would rather have 100 good friends and associates than 1000 leads on my mailing list. Kevin
  • Hi Kevin, I totally agree! Thanks for watching, see you again here!
  • Love this post keep it simple.
    you realy tell it like it is.
    mlmsamurai,,,
  • Thanks!!!
  • Amyjo Neal
    Mia! I love that you are not afraid to just lay it out there, point blank, and tell it like it is. LISTEN TO MIA PEOPLE! She knows what she's talking about!!

    I'm so glad we're friends and business partners and, I can't wait to put our awesome event together for all the smart, cool marketers in SoCal!

    Hugs,
    Amy

  • Thank you Amy! You are such an amazing and I know that with your passion and charm, you will have no way but up! Thanks for the friendship, hugs to you!
  • Steveposa
    Thanks for clearing that up for everyone, you are spot on with DUPLICATION being the way to real residual income in network marketing. It also feels much better when your team is able to create their residual income too. More importantly, Thanks for the FREE training. You see, not everyone on the internet needs to make money when offering their knowledge

    Thanks again,
    -Steve Posa
  • Thanks Steve!
  • Dave "Action" Jackson
    Thanks Mia! Duplication is always going to be the key to building a large team in MLM. Gotta love the barking dogs when shooting outdoors! See ya on Jimmy's call tomorrow!
    Dave "Action" Jackson
  • LOL, barking dogs, yeah, they can't just keep themselves from getting attention:-)
  • Boy isn't this the truth. I've experienced the same thing building online and have began really hitting the pavements offline in addition to online for the same reason.
  • Vincent Cameron
    great video Mia, as an affiliate marketer moving into MLM your words could not ring any truer for me, the transition has been hard. I would like to say that my transition was a little easier when I got plugged into the community ie. going to events, meeting people, showing the plan actually talking to people you know "networking" ...go figure :D

    Love the blog

  • Thank you Vincent. That's right, the community is like a pool of great talents, the more you plunge and stay there, the more you get yourself wet with their amazing talents.
  • Ha ha.

    Ain't it the TRUTH Mia!

    The fact is that MOST 'MLM Gurus' don't even like MLM - BECAUSE they suck at it!

    Anyone who is on this post - plug into MIA - because she won't go M.I.A. on her team :)

  • Thanks David!
  • Rayhigdon
    Um, can you say awesome! You rock Mia!
  • Hi Ray, you are the MAN!
