Finding 30 People Per Day
You could say nearly anything about MLM to thirty strangers a day and sign up one of them. I learned that lesson by cold calling people in Austin, Texas. As I stated earlier, my mentor told me that to find network marketing success I needed to sign up one person a day for six months and that all I needed to do was approach thirty a day. He was right. Ultimately that group, created my first six months, expanded my efforts and resulted in over ten million dollars income.
So the next step is to pick a number between one and fifty. That number will represent precisely how many folks you intend to prospect each day. Remember that each approach will last no more than two minutes.
There are two facts about MLM which must be remembered by distributors who are truly eager to earn the big checks. The first is that there are plenty of prospects anywhere in the world at any given time. It is impossible to avoid bumping into thirty people a day unless you are chained to a tree in the wilderness. I’ve been amazed by the number of folks who ask me how in the world I find thirty people a day to approach with a network marketing opportunity. I don't get it. Last year a hiker was lost in a snowstorm up in the mountains by Lake Tahoe.
Eventually, hundreds of people joined the search and by the second day a search team of nine rescue workers found him holed up in an old abandoned shack halfway up a mountain. I thought to myself: “Isn’t that interesting, even a lost hiker has nine prospects come to him in under forty-eight hours.”

Network Marketing Words of Advice
The path of MLM is strewn with the skeletons of successful leaders who threw it all away for short-term relationships. Even if you become President of the United States, you can never prevent a partner from publishing your most personal writings once you’re mentally incapable of comprehending the invasion of your privacy. Pray that your ex waits until you are too old to care before violating your privacy. Some are too eager to make another buck quickly and may actually publish tabloid type inaccuracies regardless of how demeaned that might make you feel. That’s the worst case scenario.
I would never attempt to improve on the words of a great writer like Shakespeare, but I have found one line in his work which needs revision. He once wrote: “Hell hath no fury like a woman
scorned.” I beg to differ. His comment was sexist and occurred in another era. Update: “Hell hath no fury like a person scorned who has $25,000 a month in passive residual income with which to express that scorn.”
In summary, if you’re married to a supportive spouse at the time you enter network marketing; don't cheat them out of the best alimony and child support that ever existed. If you’re married, but divorce has already been planned for some time, wait until it's final before you sign up. If you are single and find network marking success, suggest a prenuptial to any adoring future spouse and see how they react. If that concept disturbs them, that means they are willing and eager to grab half of something they never earned. Use a little common sense. Anyone willing to take half of something they never created will probably never become the loving partner you’re seeking. Those who act indignant about a pre-nuptial are planning to take something they don’t deserve because a pre-nuptial simply acknowledges, in advance, who has built what! If they are insistent on no pre-nuptial and you are still intent on marrying them, why not remove any economic incentive and give your downline income away to charity and start over and build something together.
The truth is this: the only real fulfillment in life is building a dynasty, not retiring and being unproductive. One of the best ways to determine the character of the person with whom you’ve fallen in love is to tell him or her that you want to start over and build something together from scratch. If they agree, you’ve got a winner. If they don’t, you definitely need a pre-nuptial or someone else. Failure to consider these strategies has caused many decent people to spend their worst year in network marketing. I speak with authority.
