<p>Ahhh, now we get to the good part.&#160; We have laid the groundwork, now time to make it all come together.</p>
<p>If you have not gone through the first 4 lessons, please go back and go through them all.&#160; It will all make sense.&#160; This lesson will be useless without those first 4.</p>
<p>Now&#8230;</p>
<p>Knowledge is one thing, but applying that knowledge is completely different.&#160; You have to set yourself apart from the rest.&#160; Most are going to read this information, agree with this information, understand this information, but will never apply it.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t ask me why that is, but there is an entire information industry in make money schemes built upon that fact.&#160; The fact that people will keep buying the next best thing to come out in regards to making money on the internet, but never get to applying it.&#160; Because if they did, there would be nobody to sell the next product to.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t let that be you.&#160; There is no need for the next best thing.&#160; There is no need for any new make money scheme.&#160; Understand these principles in building your MLM Network Marketing business and you will make an unbelievable income in this industry.</p>
<p>Now where do you start?&#160; How do you begin?&#160; My advice, start where I started.&#160; I started by buying <a href="http://FreedomWith.magneticsponsoringonline.com/?mad=3998" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff">Magnetic Sponsoring</span></a> by Mike Dillard.&#160; A lot of my understanding in building my MLM business is based upon what I learned from that small, condensed, but richly packed book.</p>
<p>In it, for a small $39 price, is the key to untold riches.&#160; What it will be worth to you in terms of the return on investment is immeasurable.</p>
<p>It will help you understand all that I have been teaching you.</p>
<p>Another big reason you need to purchase <a href="http://FreedomWith.magneticsponsoringonline.com/?mad=3998" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff">Magnetic Sponsoring</span></a> is it will give you a duplicatable system that you can use for your MLM to generate leads.&#160; All for free.</p>
<p>You will be able to use the &quot;funded proposal&quot; system in an instant.&#160; You will actually make money while you are prospecting, and the prospects that the system produces will be chasing you.&#160; They will want you to help them apply these principles.</p>
<p>After all, unless you are an MLM rockstar already, you need a place to start.&#160; You need to piggyback off of somebody else&#8217;s success until you attain your own.</p>
<p>And unless you have an unusual upline, who is applying these principles and techniques, your upline or your company will not have a system for you to generate leads following these techniques.</p>
<p>So continue to study my website and take my advice.&#160; Follow along in my blog as I continue to teach and update you on how to grow your MLM Network Marketing business.</p>
<p>If you need more advice or help, you can <a href="http://acquiretheskills.com/contact-me/"><font color="#0000ff">contact me</font></a> by just going to the <a href="http://acquiretheskills.com/contact-me/"><font color="#0000ff">contact me</font></a> section.</p>
<p>And by all means, begin the education process of becoming a skilled marketer and a dynamic leader prospects will die to follow by getting&#160; <a href="http://FreedomWith.magneticsponsoringonline.com/?mad=3998" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff">Magnetic Sponsoring</span></a>.&#160; This will begin your journey of Acquiring the Skills.</p>
<p>To the top,</p>
<p>Ernesto</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Network marketing is not what you think it is.</p>
<p>It is not finding the latest and greatest cure to all of our health problems.</p>
<p>It is not finding the greatest comp plan out there.</p>
<p>It is not showing my product is cheaper, better, faster.</p>
<p>It is not &quot;me too&quot;.</p>
<p>Sure, when you get involved in an MLM, you want to make sure your product or service holds real value.&#160; But beyond that, you need to understand something else.</p>
<p>Network Marketing is &quot;Marketing&quot;.&#160; The business you are in is marketing.&#160; You need to get that in your head.&#160; So forget about you being in health or wellness, or diet, or travel, or whatever.&#160; Those are products of our business, and hopefully great products.&#160; But your main home based business is Marketing.</p>
<p>Because you are in the business of marketing you need to learn true marketing principles.&#160; You need to become a true internet marketer who understands who your target market is, the people you are selling to.&#160; You need to be a marketer that knows how to convey a message to your target market.&#160; And you need to be a marketer that knows how to show your prospects that you have the solution.&#160; And when I say these things, I am not saying you are the one who will be physically saying these things.&#160; No, correct marketing messages will do the selling for you.</p>
<p>Do those things, and you will have no shortage of prospects to grow a huge business.&#160; You will have no shortages of being able to sell your products.</p>
<p>Fail in becoming a true marketer and you will continue to experience the painful rejection filled methods of the past.</p>
<p>Mike Dillard, an expert Network Marketer put it best when he said &quot;Most people don&#8217;t realize that network marketing is a business of marketing and promotion pursued by people who have no idea how to market or promote!&quot;</p>
<p>Huh?</p>
<p>Think about that statement.&#160; If you are honest with yourself, you more than likely fall into that category.&#160; Here you are involved in an industry with the word &quot;marketing&quot; in it, but do you really know how to market or promote?&#160; To go even further, does your upline know how to market or promote?</p>
<p>Even most of the top guns of a company fall into that category as well.&#160; They have no idea on truly how to market and promote.</p>
<p>It is not their fault, more than likely, they are regurgitating what they have been taught.&#160; And not that it doesn&#8217;t work.&#160; Obviously it has for some.&#160; But did it work for you?</p>
<p>We need to level the playing field.&#160; We need to create a field that allows the average person, who is not your super slick salesman (which is most people you get into your business), to be able to become an MLM rockstar.</p>
<p>Right now everybody is being taught and still doing all the same old inefficient &quot;so called marketing&quot; methods that just don&#8217;t cut it.</p>
<p>What are they?&#160; You know them and probably have done them.&#160; How about pitching friends and family?&#160; How did that work for you?</p>
<p>What about dragging people to home meetings or hotel meetings?</p>
<p>Or how about the old favorite (favorite for the lead companies) buying super hot, extremely qualified $5 or $10 &quot;exclusive&quot; leads?&#160; If you are like me, you ran into disinterested, broke, annoyed people because you are the 10th person to pitch them that day.</p>
<p>How many annoyed family and friends did it take before you got the hint? Or how much money did you shell out before you realized this will lead to bankruptcy?</p>
<p>So the problems with these methods are numerous, but one of the glaring problems that I haven&#8217;t mentioned is efficiency.</p>
<p>Didn&#8217;t we get involved in Network Marketing because of the leverage?&#160; Didn&#8217;t we get involved because of the time freedom?</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t think driving all over town to pitch one prospect is very leveraged.&#160; Or dialing hundreds of names and barely talking to 2 or 3 prospects in 3 hours is very leveraged.</p>
<p>Think about it.&#160; All of these methods require a lot of personal time and personal effort, with minimal results.</p>
<p>The old adage of earning 1% off of the efforts of 100 people don&#8217;t apply.&#160; Heck, at times it seems like it isn&#8217;t even an earning of 1% off of our own efforts through these methods.</p>
<p>So where do we go from here&#8230;?</p>
