A friend of Tim’s told him recently that his family had been invited to stay at a client’s condo on the beach in California. Seizing the opportunity for free room and board at a luxury condo, they planned an exciting family vacation that included Disneyland, Sea World, and Hollywood.
They couldn’t wait until the kids got home, so they could make their thrilling announcement…
Yet to their dismay, their 8-year old son met their vacation announcement with little enthusiasm…in fact, he looked like he was going to cry!
“What’s wrong?” asked his Mom, incredulously.
To which the son blurted out “we have to FLY to California… I’m scared to go on a plane!!!”
Even though the boy was headed on the most exciting trip of his young life…he couldn’t “hear” that part…all his brain latched onto was that he was going to have to be 20,000 feet in the air on a big, scary airplane to get there…and he didn’t like it!
Why Your Prospects Become “Deaf”
When They Sense You’re Pitching M.L.M
This situation reminded Tim of exactly how prospects react when they pick up on the notion that the “exciting opportunity” you were so jazzed about showing them is “one of those pyramid deals”.
Their ears turn off. You might as well be speaking in a foreign language. There are words coming out of your mouth, but they’re not listening to a thing you say.
Why? Because they are fixated on their bad pre-conceived notions about M.L.M.
To them, it wouldn’t matter if you were selling a proven cure for cancer and you had made a million dollars in your first 30 days - they wouldn’t care…in their mind “it’s one of those multi-level scams” and they’re not interested.
How To Overcome the M.L.M Objection Without Saying a Word
You MUST effectively squash the “pyramid scheme” objection right off the bat if you ever want to be successful in this business.
The problem is, when YOU try to do this yourself, you can get tongue-tied, confused, or even defensive - all of which will drive your prospect even further away from you.
That’s why Tim created the “Brilliant Compensation” presentation. You may have seen the DVD version. Did you know there is also a CD version that is perfect for people on the go who don’t have time to watch an entire DVD? In this 30-minute audio recording, Tim presents a totally logical, low-key discussion of exactly what Network Marketing is and what it isn’t. It’s completely disarming to even the most cynical person, because it doesn’t come off as a sales presentation at all.
Plus, he interviews highly-respectable professionals, business owners and even educators to get their unbiased opinion of the Network Marketing Business Model, including Dr. Charles W. King, Professor of Marketing at the University of Illinois in Chicago, and a Ph.D. in business from Harvard University.
The Simple and Easy Way to Use
The “Brilliant Compensation” CD to Explode
Your Downline and Skyrocket Your Sales
With this CD presentation, it couldn’t be simpler to overcome the objections of even the busiest, most jaded M.L.M skeptic.
When you find yourself in a conversation with a prospect who is looking for a change (dissatisfied with their job or financial situation), simply ask if they would be willing to listen to a CD that might help them.
When they ask what it is, just say it’s a presentation by a number of successful entrepreneurs including a Harvard-Educated college professor, discussing various business trends and how regular people are making lots of extra money in today’s economy.
You’ll be astounded at the results. All of a sudden, the most hard-nosed critic of M.L.M is suddenly receptive - not only to Network Marketing as a legitimate means of distribution… but more often than not, they will be eager to discuss your particular opportunity!

You probably have an image firmly planted in your mind of what network marketing (also known as direct sales or multilevel marketing) is all about–housewives buying and selling Tupperware while gossiping and eating finger sandwiches, or a high-pressure salesperson trying to convince you how easily you can become a millionaire if only you and your friends and their friends and so on would buy and sell vitamins with him.
Both of these images couldn’t be further from the reality of network marketing. It’s neither a hobby nor a get-rich-scheme but an opportunity for you to earn money running your own part- or full-time business.
But what does it take to succeed in this industry? Vincent J. Kellsey, director of member services for the Direct Selling Women’s Alliance, an organization that provides a variety of resources to women and men in the direct-selling industry, offers these tips for making it:
Choose wisely. There are six key elements you should be looking for [when selecting an opportunity]. Number one: stability. How old is the company? Number two is excellent products or services that consumers will use and need more of.
Number three is the pay plan–how even and fair and generous overall is the distribution? This is really crucial as the pay plan represents exactly how you’ll get paid–or not get paid. There are really only two questions to ask [regarding this]: How many pennies out of each sales dollar get paid back to the distributors each month, and how fair is the distribution of these pennies between the old members and the new members?
Number four is the integrity of the company and the management. As much as possible, [investigate] the experience of the CEO, [their] experience in the network marketing industry, and their background. [Have] they been successful in other companies in the industry? Do they have a good reputation?
Number five is momentum and timing. Look at where the company’s at, what’s going on with the company, and if it’s growing.
Number six is support, training and business systems. You may have [chosen] a great company with excellent management, products that make a difference, a pay plan that’s uniquely fair and very generous, and momentum and stability, but if you don’t have a system in place that works, all of that [doesn’t matter]. Most companies will have a transferable training system that they use, and that’s where mentorship comes in.
Practice what they teach. [To succeed,] you need to be willing to listen and learn from mentors. The way this industry is structured, it’s in the best interests of the [MLM veterans in your company] to help you succeed, so they’re willing to teach you the system. Whatever [your mentor] did to become successful, it’s very duplicatible, but you have to be willing to listen and be taught and follow those systems.
The higher-ups. It can be called various things, but the general term is the “upline,” meaning the people above you. How supportive are they? Do they call you? Do they help you put a plan in place? Are they as committed to your success as they are to their own? You should be able to relate to [the people in your upline] and be able to call them at any time to say “I need some help.” How much support there is from the people above you in the company is very important.
Take up the lead with your downline. There’s a term in the network marketing industry called “orphans”–when somebody is brought in and then the person who brought them in is just so busy bringing in other people that they don’t spend the time to teach and train [the new person]. You should be prepared to spend at least 30 days helping a new person come into the industry–training them, supporting them and holding their hand until they feel confident to be able to go off on their own. You really need to ask yourself, are you willing to do that? Are you able to do that? This is really about long-term relationship building. It’s not about just bringing people into the business and just moving forward. It’s about working with these people and helping them to develop relationships.
On the net. People are utilizing [the internet] as their main marketing tool. [You can set up your site] with autoresponders so when you capture leads, the autoresponder can follow up with that person. One of the greatest keys to success in this industry is follow-up. Many people will have someone call them who’s interested or they’ll call the person and say they’re interested, but then they don’t follow up with it. Automation on the internet has allowed a much more consistent method of following up.
The only drawback with the internet is people who utilize it to spam. If there was one thing I could put forward to say, “Do not do” when utilizing the internet as a marketing tool, it’s spamming because that can give a very bad reputation not only to you but also to the company you’re working with.
Taking care of business. This is a business, and just like if you were running a franchise or a storefront, you [should have an] accountant. You have all the same write-offs tax-wise that you have with running a [full-time] business, so it’s very important to [do your research] prior to getting involved, before you start making money from it. How is that going to affect you tax-wise? What are your write-offs?
It’s important to set up a [support] team around you. I’d suggest seeking out lawyers who deal in network marketing, so they’re very versed in all the laws and how that affects [your business.]. There are also accountants who specialize in dealing with homebased businesses specifically in the direct-selling industry.
Don’t quit your day job…yet. Never leave your full-time position unless you’re absolutely certain that the income that’s coming in with this company is going to be there. [Be sure that] you’ve been with the company [for a while] and that you know it’s a stable company, and the income that you’re earning is equal to or greater than the income you’re earning from your job before quitting.
