Do you know why I make more than<br />

the average Network Marketer?<br />

Most of the time, I'm working<br />

when they are doing something<br />

else. Pretty simple stuff.<br />

When all compensation becomes<br />

performance based, people<br />

who hold traditional jobs will learn<br />

what the best Network Marketers<br />

already know – it takes real effort to<br />

be successful.<br />

I talk to a lot of people about network<br />

marketing. I talk to people who are<br />

thinking about getting involved and I<br />

talk to a lot who are already involved<br />

and wanting to know what they<br />

can do to improve their businesses.<br />

Without fail, the question I am most<br />

often asked is, “What is the secret to<br />

making a lot of money in this business?”<br />

My answer is the same for all<br />

of them: hard work. Work your butt<br />

off. Work your face off. Do it right,<br />

and there is nothing that can keep<br />

you from getting what you want.<br />

This might seem to fly in the face of<br />

what I have been saying about having<br />

the lifestyle you want without the<br />

obligations that come with a straight<br />

job. Believe me, there is a huge difference.<br />

Look at what “working your<br />

butt off” means in a traditional job.<br />

It means going in early and staying<br />

late. It means working weekends<br />

and nights to get through the tasks<br />

you have had to push aside while you<br />

<strong>Go</strong> <strong>Pro</strong> <strong>Academy</strong><br />

attend to group emails and attend<br />

status meetings. It means missing<br />

things like get-togethers with friends<br />

and the occasional elementary school<br />

play because you have a deadline<br />

that just can’t be missed.<br />

Now, imagine that all your hard work<br />

actually went toward achieving what<br />

you want out of life rather than keeping<br />

some corporate machine running<br />

smoothly. As I said before, too many<br />

people consider “work” to be a place<br />

you go instead of something you<br />

do. In network marketing, the work<br />

you put in today will pay off for you<br />

tomorrow, the next day and the day<br />

after that. You get back what you put<br />

in, but unlike other businesses, the<br />

reward continues to repeat and grow.<br />

Skeptics of network marketing<br />

always point to the image of the<br />

big-money-making Multi-Level<br />

Marketer as a false promise of<br />

a business that is just out to get<br />

their enrollment fee. And, I will<br />

admit, too many network marketing<br />

companies rely too much<br />

on parading wealth in front of<br />

prospective new recruits as a way<br />

to cultivate interest in the business.<br />

What the skeptics fail to do, though,<br />

is connect the dots between the<br />

introduction to a network marketing<br />

opportunity and that “finish line,”<br />

the image of the millionaire who is<br />

free to experience the best life has<br />

to offer.<br />

Work your butt off. Work your face off.<br />

Do it right, and there is nothing that can<br />

keep you from getting what you want.<br />

As I have said, I tell new Network<br />

Marketers to expect to put in five<br />

years of honest, hard work before<br />

they have the skills and the foundation<br />

that might ever put them in<br />

the league of the big earners. The<br />

millionaire image isn’t a false one,<br />

but I think more businesses should<br />

spend the time to tell the whole<br />

story. Those success stories that<br />

you hear from the deck of a huge<br />

sailboat or the pool of an expensive<br />

house? Those are real. I know<br />

many of the people they interview<br />

for the recruitment materials. And I<br />

can tell you that without exception,<br />

each of the success stories you will<br />

ever see is built on years of hard<br />

work. Years of hustle.<br />

I have a friend named Jeff Roberti<br />

who has made more than $62 million<br />

over the course of twenty years in<br />

network marketing. And based on<br />

the work he has done over time,<br />

that number continues to grow. He<br />

enjoys the kind of lifestyle people<br />

dream about, a lifestyle that includes<br />

the time freedom and financial<br />

resources to contribute to a long<br />

list of philanthropic causes that are<br />

important to him.<br />

Jeff could be the poster boy for the<br />

kind of recruiting materials that the<br />

skeptics point to as false promises.<br />

But talk to Jeff and he will tell you<br />

that if you just look at all he has and<br />

all he earns today, you are missing<br />

the biggest part of his story – what it<br />

took to get to where he is.<br />

When Jeff started out, he was, by his<br />

own admission, green. Now, some<br />

people get frustrated at this point,<br />

realizing they are in unfamiliar territory<br />

without the skills and knowledge<br />

that will allow them to be successful.<br />

Not Jeff. Jeff instead met the<br />

challenge head on. He took the time<br />

to learn the skills and acquire the<br />

knowledge, but he also did something<br />

remarkable. Jeff saw that in<br />

network marketing hard work could<br />

compensate for any deficiencies in<br />

ability. He saw what it would take to<br />

be good at this business and he met<br />

the challenge head on.<br />

Jeff began making calls, telling his<br />

story and sharing his belief with anyone<br />

who would listen. In fact, Jeff<br />

made 700-1,000 phone calls a week.<br />

And he did this for an entire year<br />

<strong>Go</strong> <strong>Pro</strong> <strong>Academy</strong><br />

– his first year – until his business<br />

was where he thought it should be.<br />

I’m sure there were frustrating moments<br />

along the way during that year,<br />

and I’m sure that there were times<br />

when Jeff doubted that he was ever<br />

going to reach the level of success he<br />

saw for himself. But Jeff answered<br />

doubt with hustle, and twenty years<br />

later he has exceeded even his own<br />

high expectations.<br />

Hard work is the magic bullet, the<br />

secret sauce, and the missing link<br />

when it comes to success in my<br />

business. But when you realize that<br />

the hustle you put in each day will<br />

pay off for you (not some corporation)<br />

down the road, it casts the<br />

concept of hard work in a whole<br />

new light. Do you have to make<br />

700-1,000 calls per week to be successful<br />

in network marketing? No.<br />

But I will tell you this, if you put<br />

in that kind of effort you can end<br />

up living the lifestyle that Jeff and<br />

dozens of others I know enjoy.<br />

Take heart. If you are new to network<br />

marketing you already possess<br />

the one thing that will make the difference<br />

between success and failure.<br />

You possess a drive to make your<br />

life better and your finances more<br />

secure. Let that be your motivation<br />

for putting in the effort. People tend<br />

to blame lack of skill, bad luck or bad<br />

timing for failure to succeed in business<br />

and in life. But I will tell you,<br />

hard work will compensate for any<br />

of these things. This is true in life<br />

and it is particularly true in network<br />

marketing. If you want success, go<br />

after it. If you go after it you will<br />

succeed. And this promise is what<br />

makes network marketing unlike any<br />

other business on the planet—anyone<br />

willing to hustle can get to a place<br />

where they can realize their dreams.<br />

All it takes is hustle.<br />

Use and love your product.<br />

Although you must focus on enrolling others in the<br />

opportunity in order to build a large network, a large<br />

portion of your credibility and integrity in doing so<br />

will be your passion for your products. The more you<br />

love them, the more you will talk about them and the<br />

more your whole network will use and sell them.<br />

Own the concept of Network Marketing.<br />

Most prospects have a strong opinion about this<br />

concept. They own their perception of what it is.<br />

They have conviction about it. If you are weak on<br />

your ownership of Network Marketing they will<br />

influence you versus you influencing them. One too<br />

many times of them influencing you and you are out<br />

of the game. You must have some successes – and<br />

have them quickly – to shore up your confidence.<br />

Study everything you can find on exactly how and<br />

why Network Marketing is an extraordinary wealthbuilding<br />

concept. Study those who have done it.<br />

Master their stories and their strategies.<br />

Learn to believe that everyone is a prospect.<br />

They don’t think they are. They are probably not<br />

even looking for anything. But ask yourself this<br />

question: If everyone knew what you knew, would<br />

they get involved? The answer is: Of course. So what<br />

is missing? They just don’t know about it. What if<br />

you could let them peek into your mind and into<br />

your heart to see it how you see it? Would they get<br />

Irrefutable Laws<br />

of Network Marketing<br />

involved? Yes, most of them would, and the ones who<br />

would not would pass in a way that championed you<br />

(not rejected you) and appreciated you for offering.<br />

Ask easy curiosity questions.<br />

The more you know about your prospects, the easier<br />

it is for you to design an offer they will not choose to<br />

refuse. Find out what is important to people. What do<br />

they love? What do they want more of in life? What<br />

do they want less of? Start with where they live (if<br />

you don’t know). What do they like about it? What<br />

don’t they like about it? Where would they live if<br />

they could move? What is holding them back? Ask<br />

about their work. How long have they been doing it?<br />

What do they like and dislike about it? What is holding<br />

them back from doing something they love?<br />

Ask them to imagine.<br />

Walt Disney was probably the last one to inspire<br />

them to imagine. It is our ability to imagine something<br />

that is not actually present in our lives that<br />

allows us to become inspired. Imagining a more<br />

peaceful, fun-filled, loving, abundant life changes our<br />

body chemistry immediately, whether we want it to<br />

or not. Imagining something specific that we like and<br />

don’t now have gives us a positive energy (motivation)<br />

to act; to choose to prioritize, to change and to<br />

embrace something like a new business that just five<br />

minutes ago we would have sworn we would never<br />

do. Ask them to imagine getting a check for $1,000<br />

(or whatever amount you have<br />

learned will motivate them) every<br />

month like clockwork.<br />

Show them the way.<br />

Once someone is motivated to<br />

move, they will take direction. Why<br />

not? Your wisdom, experience and<br />

position in the organization is what<br />

they need to get what they want.<br />

Take advantage of your posture<br />

and show them exactly what they<br />

need to do. Use examples people<br />

who they know who can do well.<br />

Show them their plan. Show them<br />

their money. Show them what they<br />

must do to get their money. If you<br />

don’t show them, they will not do<br />

what they need to do and you have<br />

wasted their time and yours.<br />

Wait for no man or woman.<br />

Make unreasonable requests. This<br />

will sort out who will work with<br />

you and who will not. You must<br />

ask people to do what must be<br />

done. Stretch them. Give them the<br />

opportunity to succeed or fail out<br />

of choice versus merely decaying<br />

over time right in front of you.<br />

Some people would rather whine<br />

than work. They would rather tell<br />

stories than succeed. They would<br />

rather keep you waiting on them as<br />

they “get around to it.” These are<br />

the Vampires of Network Marketing.<br />

They will suck the life out of<br />

you with their procrastination and<br />

excuses and brilliant ability to find<br />

ways for things not to work. It is<br />

much easier for them to justify<br />

their commitment to mediocrity<br />

if you stay down with them. Cast<br />

them off. And if they happen to be<br />

friends and family, keep them as<br />

such—and out of your business.<br />

Manage your motivation.<br />

Motivation is the secret to success.<br />

When you are on fire about<br />

<strong>Go</strong> <strong>Pro</strong> <strong>Academy</strong><br />

the inevitability of your quest you<br />

will be enthusiastic, courageous,<br />

energetic, persistent and creative.<br />

These are the fundamentals of getting<br />

things done and attracting the<br />

things you need. When you are in a<br />

funk, you repel what you need and<br />

you do just the opposite actions<br />

from what you need to be doing.<br />

When you are on fire success is<br />

easy, natural and fun. You get<br />

lucky and stay lucky.<br />

Get your car over the hill.<br />

There is a lot of inertia in launching<br />

a network. The analogy is like<br />

pushing a car up a hill. It takes proportionally<br />

far more energy just to<br />

get it rolling than at any other time,<br />

and it takes a continued Herculean<br />

effort to keep it going uphill. And<br />

what happens if you stop to rest?<br />

Right, you get run over and have to<br />

start over. And what happens when<br />

you stay after it and do whatever it<br />

takes to get to the top of the hill?<br />

Right, it starts rolling on its own<br />

and it would take another Herculean<br />

effort just to stop it.<br />

Lead like your life depended<br />

on it.<br />

And the rest of your life—the part<br />

you may have been missing up to<br />

now—does depend on it, too. In<br />

a successful Network Marketing<br />

career, first comes massive action<br />

and development, then comes massive<br />

money and then comes … Life<br />

Beyond Money. A life where you<br />

are present to those you love; life<br />

with the freedom to do what you<br />

want, where you want, with whom<br />

you want and the peace of knowing<br />

that you have crested the hill and<br />

although there will still be bumps<br />

in your road you are on the good<br />

slope. Network Marketing is like<br />

herding cats. Your job is to inspire<br />

a whole bunch of people to do<br />

something they are not normally<br />

inclined to do on their own and<br />

keep them doing it—thousands of<br />

them. Imagine herding thousands<br />

of cats to the <strong>Pro</strong>mised Land. You<br />

would need to be one heck of a<br />

trail boss yourself, and you would<br />

also need a lot of good hands to<br />

help you. Your leadership and your<br />

ability to inspire and develop it in<br />

others will determine how far you<br />

go and how self-sustaining it is<br />

when you get there.<br />

Network Marketing is a brilliant<br />

career choice whether you choose<br />

it at the age of 20, 40 or 80. Done<br />

smartly, you can be done in Four<br />

Years and then you get to design your<br />
