I have a question for you.  If you can answer it correctly you’ve impressed me.

What REALLY creates duplication and success in business?

Is it:

A. a simple system, or

B. your ability to influence people

Think about the most successful people you know.

In your networking company, think about the most successful people ‘under’ the most successful people.

They all have the same system everyone else uses and yet their results are significantly different.  Why?

What’s the difference?  What do they have that others don’t?

It’s called Influence.

Now think about someone else–you’ve heard a lot about this ole’ chap:  Ray Kroc (founder of McDonald’s franchise).

It’s often said that McDonald’s is successful because it has a simple system. Now that makes for a simple sales pitch but it won’t help you much if you put the shovel down here.

If it were actually true that McDonald’s system is the key to its success, why do they change the menu so often?

And if were true, wouldn’t all duplicatable systems be successful?  Of course they can’t all be successful, just because they’re a system that was built for Your Success!

There are lots of failed franchises.  In fact, after the franchise model took off in the 1970s, the FTC almost shut the entire industry down because so many of them were purchased with the belief that ‘it’s a system, its going to make me money,’ when in fact they lost their house, car, and shirt.

It took Ray more than a system to make McDonald’s successful, just as it takes McDonald’s corporate leaders more than its system to keep McDonald’s on top.  Notice how they took the ‘Super Size It’ option away and added a salad menu.  Why would they change the system?!  Because they have to.  Because the answer is not in the system, but in their ability to Influence us to buy.  Having a system in place is a small part of the equation.  .

It was Ray’s influence that allowed him to inspire others to buy his franchises.  It was influence that allowed people to sell unsuccessful franchises (and networking opportunities).

It takes influence to lead people to do anything.  Don’t be fooled.

“The System Pitch” is Like Fools Gold… Looks Shiny But It’s a Waste of Time to Mine.

A system is only a part of a process, and not the most important part.  It’s like a tool (like having a computer).  It’s important, but pales in comparison to what you should be focused on and talking about.

So What REALLY Counts?  What Should You Be Focused On?

Whether you’re in a networking business or a more traditional business (as a coach, service provider or consultant, etc) your “Influence Factor” will determine whether you’re scratching and clawing for every dollar and sell, vs. making more than you need, with ease.

Are you on the right track?  Are you paying attention to what REALLY counts–your “Influence Factor?”

I’ve written a very in-depth article on the topic.  What’s sad is the people who need it most often resist it.  They just want a simple system, when what they need is to be looking at their Influence Factor.

Complete Interview Ann Sieg talks with Mike Klingler on Network Marketing

You may have never heard of Mike Klingler before, but what I am about to share with you about him will potentially change your life by way of how you market your business online.  When Ann Sieg launched her very successful system with her new book The Renegade Network Marketer, there were a few areas that the Renegade system didn’t cover.  It essentially gives you all the tools, but not the training on how to use them.

This is where Mike Klingler comes in.  Mike has been an internet marketer for 15 years prior to coming accross Ann Sieg’s Renegade network marketer system.  He personally sponsored over 4,000 distributors in his Network Marketing company using online methods.  When Mike had learned about the Renegade System, he was very excited that Ann had made this tool available to the masses.

Because Mike specializes in coaching people, he decided to create a training program for those who found it difficult to understand how to use the principles taugh in the Renegade System.  So, he created Renegade University.  It has become the #1 training site for internet markters.

Mike has most recently co-sponsored the soon to be launched “Renegade Professional” with Ann Sieg-which I might add is expected to revolutionize the internet marketing industry.  If you want to know more about the launch and how you can take advantage of it, just download the free e-book The Attraction Marketers Manifesto.  Once you opt in, your e-mail will be on a list of subscribers who will be alerted once it launches.  I believe it is set to launch on March 25th.

When my buddy called me to tell of of this amazing tool he had come
across for generating MLM leads online, my first thought was less than
enthusiastic. However, after reading, I set the book down and thought
about what this book might mean to the world of Network Marketing. I
don’t know how else to describe it except to say that this is BIG.
Let me lay it out for you. Ann Sieg believes that sales is a process
and that you must have a steady stream of people entering the pipeline
in order to create sales. Ann also believes, like I do, that Network
Marketing is sales. So Ann set out to create a system that allows
anyone to create a pipeline of prospects for their business. But that
is not all. The system is also set up to create an income that will
fund your advertising efforts. Here is the cool part. Ann actually
wants you to have success with her system and then once you have a
great understanding of how a system like this works and once you have
created financial success utilizing her system, she wants you to branch
out and create your own system so that you have better control and are
better able to serve your team. I know, its wild. Let’s look at the
pieces to the system: 1. Landing Pages – where you send prospects and
internet traffic to. Here are the links to my landing pages:

• The 7 Great Lies of Network Marketing
• The Renegade Network Marketer

2. The 7 lies eBook is free and designed to be viral. When a person
signs up for the 7 lies eBook, you get their eMail address. This might
be a good time to send out a quick email and introduce yourself,
offering to answer any questions the person might have.

3. The Follow Up System – this is an email drip system that
continues to send messages on autopilot. The messages provide good
business tips and advice, but also sell them on taking the next
step…buying the Renegade Marketer eBook. 4. The Renegade Marketer eBook
is over 100 pages packed with very specific information related to how
this type of system works and why it was put together. Even though I
have a lot of experience with internet marketing, the book was an eye
opener to me. When a person purchases the Renegade Marketer eBook from
you, you get a commission and you also get the persons information,
Name, Address, Email, and Phone. This allows you to build a
relationship with the person and see if you might be able to do
business together, (Your MLM Business!). I’m sure that some people will
already be involved with a company, but some will likely be looking for
a company to join. You build a relationship and perhaps a future
business partner emerges. I should also mention that the commission
structure is actually a two tiered affiliate, meaning that you also get
paid a smaller commission on sales that your affiliates make.

5. The Back End – the back end of the system is filled with links
that are very helpful in terms of marketing your business, particularly
online. Check this out. Anyone that purchases the Renegade Network
Marketer eBook can become an affiliate, for free and when they become
an affiliate, the links in their back office point to your affiliate
codes with different company like Amazon, Clickbank, Aweber, and other
helpful links related to marketing. This takes some time to set up, but
might be very lucrative over the long haul. I should also point out
that these are not fluff links put in place to make the optimum amount
of money. They are good solid companies that many online marketers use
every day. Remember: The purpose of all of this is to fill your
pipeline with good quality leads. However, wouldn’t it be nice to make
$200 a week or a day through the Renegade System while doing it? The
other thing I should mention is that while much of this system is
automated, the relationship that you build with potential business
partners is not automated. Ann is great at making this point in her
book. A long term business is built on relationships. Lastly, if you
don’t have a clue about online marketing, traffic generation, copy
writing and sales. No worries. There is a complete training section in
the back office. The training section is worth thousands on it’s own.
