Gloria is right. You should never take advise from people you’re not willing to trade places with. Gloria knows that the reason why people don’t have success is because they don’t take action.

Network marketers who jump from company to company should know that there is a diminishing value on your integrity as a leader that occurs with every move. It’s sad to say but I’ve seen it time and time again in today’s network marketing environment where leaders will move from company to company and take their team and people with them (not all, but some). I remember when I first started working on this blog, one of the first posts that I wrote was that Cedrick Harris was leaving Visalus. Well now I hear that he’s going to Organo Gold. It’s pretty much confirmed that this is where he is going. I heard him say on a call that was hosted by Larry Beachum that this time he was following leadership vs chasing money and that he was going to a company with the number one money earner in the industry, which of course we all know is Holton Buggs.
But isn’t there a big contradiction in his statement?
First, he said that he was no longer chasing money, then he said that he was following leadership, but the leader is also the no. 1 money earner in the entire network marketing industry. Hmmm…
Then he said he did his research and that he was going to plant his flag and stay with the company for 5 years. That’s interesting too, because if he knew anything about Holton Buggs, I think he’s been with OG for longer than that and he will be with OG for life. I give it up to Holton Buggs and his team at OG. They’re doing their thing. But they have the same problem that most of these network marketing companies have. ATTRITION.
The way Holton has been able to beat a lot of this is due to the fact that he was able to create a lot of success around him. He is someone who gets it. He knows that the way to beat attrition is to help about 12-20 people around you to achieve overwhelming success. So he helped to create other top money earners and that has been one of the biggest keys to his success. He knows that it’s not about him. He understands the importance of not only having him as one of the top money earners in the industry, but to also have some of his team members to appear on that list.
Here is my personal opinion about jumping from company to company and about what I heard on that call. It’s not about following the leader, it’s about BEING the leader. I don’t personally know Holton Buggs, but I’ve checked him out. He’s a quiet storm. He’s knows his stuff. You never hear him out there bashing folks or anything like that. He’s not an internet marketing genius. He knows that network marketing is a belly to belly business and he knows how to create a T.E.A.M. environment. He looks like he was trained by Delxino Wilson Debriano from TAG Team Marketing back in the old ACN hay days. : )
Being the leader in a networking marketing company means this:
1. Being 100% sold out for the company.
2. Being 100% sold out for the team.
3. Being 100% sold out for the product.
4. Being 100% sold out for the compensation plan.
5. Being 100% sold out and knowing that if you have 1% doubt , then you’re out.
You have to eat, sleep and drink it 24/7. No if’s and’s or but’s.
When I went to the top of Warm Spirit back in 2005, that’s what it was all about. I didn’t look at anything else, I didn’t get distracted by anything else. All the systems that I had were company systems or home grown systems that I had created for the team. I taught my team members how to generate leads. I got on calls and I trained them on personal development, and I taught them the principles of leadership and how to make money. We had team outings and closed door meetings. We knew how to start a grass roots movement that exploded from the inner circle out.
Organo Gold is lucky to have Holton Buggs, Mary Kay is lucky to have Gloria Mayfield Banks, and Send Out Cards is lucky to have Jordan Adler. These are network marketing leaders who will never stray. Other people may come and go, but these leaders have their flags firmly planted in their opportunities and that’s the difference. They’re determined and they won’t quit. They have increasing value because of their leadership, because of their integrity, because of their willingness to stay with one game and see it to through to the very end. You see when you sign up with a network marketing company, it’s like signing a marriage certificate, it’s a binding agreement with rules and like a marriage it’s til death do you part. Understand these basic concepts and WIN!

Lawrence Tam will probably end up being one of those guys that will go down in Internet Network Marketing history as a legend. He is someone that I have personally watched transform and grow over the past 4 years. I remember when he was a part of Cedrick Harris’ Team Takeover and he was a member of a group and I had the opportunity to ask him at the time what was the key to his success and he said to me “blogging”. Back when he said it to me the answer was so simple I didn’t want to accept it. I asked him, “What do you blog about?” and he said, “Anything.”
I must say that Lawrence Tam is one person that I admire in the network marketing and internet marketing industry and the reason why I admire him so much is for the fact that basically tells it all. I think the one thing that he realized was that even if he revealed everything that he did, people still wouldn’t do it, so why hold back. I’ve discovered the same thing. You can reveal step by step ALL of your secrets and people still will not follow what it is that you say. I don’t know if it’s because they still don’t believe you or what the reason is, but for some reason people just don’t seem to believe anything.
Lawrence is probably one of the most honest and sincere upfront guys that you would ever meet online. He is open and he shares freely, but people still give him a hard time. Network Marketing is simple and pretty easy when you put it into practice and incorporate some online skills into your prospecting efforts. But here is the truth of the matter, IT TAKES WORK.
To create a blog post on a regular basis takes time and effort. Also, to make sure that your blog post are optimized for the keyword that you’re targeting also takes some time and effort. To get to the level of skill that successful network marketers who are marketing online like Mr. Tam does, also requires a budget. It costs money. It also requires time for you to learn new skills and how to use new tools.
Lawrence Tam initially made his money with My Lead System Pro, Empower Network and Visalus. I know that he’s still with Empower Network, which is a hybrid Affiliate/MLM company. I don’t know if he’s still with Visalus because they don’t want their leaders involved with anything other than Visalus. But Lawrence is smart. He’s honed his internet marketing skills and now he markets other affiliate programs and has become like one another one of my mentors, Daegan Smith a master of multiple streams of income.
Lawrence Tam is definitely a legend and will go down in history is a master of the internet network marketing universe. I would urge anyone to follow him and his teachings because I know that he’s taught me a lot and I know that you can learn a lot from him too.

The answer is simple. They don’t earn enough income.
The truth of the matter is 90% of the people in this industry never actually reach a full-time income. And of those that do, only 6% of them earn over $35,000 per year and out of that group only 3% ever go on to earn six figures.
Another truth is they spend more money than they earn and they don’t understand why.
So here’s the reality of it all. Every new business owner MUST invest in their business, whether it’s network marketing or something else. The initial investment is always more than the return.
Statistics show that it takes the average business owner 3 to 5 years to turn a healthy profit from a new business.
Why do network marketers believe their experience will be any different?
Here’s a fact: Most network marketers enter the industry with no business experience at all. They don’t understand that building a successful network marketing business takes time and money and they quit before they ever really get started.
Most people in the industry earn on average $300 per month. But no one ever tells them what to do with that money.
A good 3-step strategy for someone entering into this industry is to:
1. Keep your full-time job.
2. Take the income you do earn and save 50% of it and re-invest the other 50%.
3. Set yourself up to earn additional streams of income by tapping into your passions and resources available to you.
Why is it that most people don’t tell anyone this? Well, I would guess that it’s simply because most people don’t know.
The average person enters the field and quickly becomes disenfranchised because they don’t make enough and they spend most of what they earn investing in products, business tools, sales conferences, buying leads and training.
Let’s be clear, I am not saying that this is the wrong thing to do, because it is absolutely – THE RIGHT thing to do.
The real problem is that most people do exactly what the 90% who fail do. They get all of the information, training and tools and they sit on it and never take action
As a matter of fact, 90% of the people who read this article will not take one action to achieve success.
Network Marketers can put a plug in the hole in the bucket that is literally causing them to spend more money than they make by following the My Lead System Pro program which teaches how to generate upfront cash on their prospecting process and creating multiple streams of income.
This upfront cash can then be used to fund your advertising, business tools, sales conferences, and other costs associated with your business. This is called a funded proposal and was first introduced by several big time network marketers like Mike Dillard and Daegen Smith. If you’re in the industry, you too can take advantage of a funded proposal without having the technical know-how by following the My Lead System Pro plan.
Take advantage of it today and never fail at Network Marketing again.
