MLM Training – The #1 Thing That Drives Prospects Away

Thursday, July 30th, 2009
Tim Sales asked:

This one action can and will certainly stop prospects from joining your MLM business. You may have the greatest product, or the best compensation plan, or top-notch MLM training techniques; but none of that matters if you do this one thing to alienate your prospects.

Making your prospect feel dumb is probably the most counter-productive thing you could do when trying to get them into your MLM business, yet so many people do it without knowing they do it.

Of my list of Ten Communication Qualities (which is a list of qualities every network marketer must know and possess in order to truly have success in speaking with MLM prospects), “Communicate at the Prospect’s Level” is number nine.

When you communicate at the prospect’s level they “get” you. They feel the two of you are on the same ‘wave length.”

Don’t communicate at the prospect’s level and they feel dumb and that they can’t do it. (meaning, they won’t be able to successfully build an MLM business.) They also feel very “different” than you. Have you ever sat around people speaking a different language? You felt alienated…and you were.

If you use esoteric terms (the word esoteric means – Intended for or understood by only a particular group) that your prospect doesn’t know, then you’re going to have partial or no communication. What does that mean?

Partial communication is when parts of what you say are understood by the prospect and parts are NOT understood. So they only understood a part of what you said. An example could be that you say breakaway compensation plan. They only understand compensation plan so they know it has something to do with making money but it’s not clear to them exactly what you mean. That’s partial communication.

No communication is when you say something and the prospect has no idea what you’re talking about. You say phytochemical (means: nutrients in plants that have health promoting properties) and they think “dog chemicals.”

You might think I’m exaggerating, but I’m not! I’ve surveyed people about what they think the word Network Marketing means. Six out of 10 (60%) think it’s something to do with selling networking equipment, as in computer networking! That’s NO communication.

When you’re talking about your MLM business and/or your product, you must communicate only with words that are in your prospect’s vocabulary. If you really think about it, a dictionary merely describes an unknown word with words already in a person’s vocabulary. That’s the reason there are different levels of dictionaries – children’s dictionary, collegiate dictionary, medical dictionary and so forth.

Vocabulary – what does that word even mean? One definition is – All the words of a language. That would be good if everyone knew all words – and all their definitions, but they don’t. The second definition of the word vocabulary is the sum of words used by, understood by, or at the command of a particular person. That’s a much better definition for what we’re discussing here.

So where did you get your current vocabulary? You got it from things you’ve heard or things you’ve read. It does you no good to create your own words because no one knows what they mean except you. That’s like if you had the only fax machine in the world – who could you send a fax to?

Contrary to what your English professor told you, you do NOT become a great communicator because you have a large vocabulary alone. It’s part of it, but not the whole package. A larger vocabulary allows you to communicate to a larger audience – meaning you have more in common with a greater number of people. It gives you diversity.

Let’s suppose you knew the entire English vocabulary – you could then carry on a conversation with anyone on any subject. Until you ran into someone who spoke Spanish – then you have no communication again. You learn all the words of the Spanish language and then you could communicate to anyone in Spanish on any subject also.

What point am I trying to make here? Two points actually. One is I’m driving home your understanding that good communication is not something one is born with. Every person had to learn the definition of all the words in their vocabulary.

And the other point I’m making here is that you can communicate with people only to the degree that you know and USE THE SAME vocabulary they do. If you knew all the words of a language, its value would only be known by the one other fellow who knew all the words.

Most of the time you will never use more than about 10% of the vocabulary because that’s what most people know – and for you to be a good communicator you must, I repeat, you must only use words that the person you’re communicating with knows – otherwise that prospect will walk away from you, or hang up the phone on you, or fail to return your phone calls, or quit network marketing!

And don’t think for a second that people will say they don’t know something – even if you ask them if they understand. This is something wrong our society has taught us to do. It’s the craziest thing I’ve ever observed.

A person not knowing something will pretend to know something so they don’t seem dumb – but they are dumb on that word or subject and will forever stay that way because they would rather appear smart and be dumb, than be smart by asking, “What does that mean?”

So don’t use words to describe your MLM business or products that prospects don’t know. If you need to use a new word, only use words to define that new word that your prospect already knows.

And…please, please, please when you hear something you don’t understand – ask what it means. :)

Essential DJ Equipments To Create Great Beats And Tunes

Wednesday, July 29th, 2009
Susan Jan asked:

Whether you aspire to be a disc jockey, just starting out as an amateur DJ or have the talent and desire to be a professional DJ ready to churn out a career in the world of music remixes, you need to have some knowledge of and experience in the basic DJ equipments. This is essential because these are the tools of the trade that will get you going in this world of mixing and matching beats and tunes.

There are a number of aspiring youngsters who want to start out as a DJ, but do not know enough about getting started and what to start with. For those who are serious about becoming a DJ, the first step is to invest in the basic but essential DJ equipments that you cannot do without, that being turntables, headphones, speakers and a DJ mixer. Of course, as you gain experience and popularity as a DJ, you can then upgrade to more sophisticated DJ equipments.

The most important DJ equipment for you to master is the turntable. For your first set of turntables it is always a good idea to start with a used version, or if you decide to purchase a new one, at least to purchase an inexpensive model. Getting to the level of spinning the turntable in front of a packed audience and wowing them with your great beat and music requires much work. In fact, to many beginners, that is a nerve-wracking prospect, as being great on the turntables requires a lot of practice and dedication. So start out amongst friends and friendly crowds before stepping up to bigger and less familiar audiences. Once you become quite good at it, you can start upgrading the turntable. The Technics 1200 or 1210 is a popular model to start with.

The next important item on the DJ equipment list is a good pair of headphones. According to the more experienced DJs, the Sony headphones make the best choice for beginners.

If you are on a tight budget, you can postpone your purchase of a DJ mixer as you can manage without one in the beginning. Once you have made a mark in this business and started making some money, then you can think about investing in a good DJ mixer.

In order to get started in any profession you have to make some investment and the DJ profession is no exception either. A beginner in this profession should expect to set a budget for basic DJ equipment purchase of approximately US$2,000, as a turntable sells for about $1500, and the mixer, headphone and speaker for about $100 each.

Fitness Equipment

Tuesday, July 28th, 2009
David Mcfarlane asked:

Whether you are involved with running a commercial health club, are an entrepreneurial fitness coach looking to start your own personal training studio, or are a home owner looking to build your home gym with quality equipment, you can get commercial grade exercise machines at a fraction of the cost with refurbished fitness equipment. If you are looking for an all-in-one strength training workout, Weider fitness equipment may be the answer that you have been searching for. If you are in the market for home fitness equipment, you might be surprised by the variety of choices available.

Most fitness equipment that you would expect to find in your local gym or fitness centre can now be purchased for home use depending upon the space you have available and the type of fitness equipment you require. Whatever type of home fitness equipment you choose, the most important thing to do is select something that you will find enjoyable, convenient, and easy to use. With so much to choose from, take the time to consider which type of gym fitness equipment you are most likely to use long-term.

If you are the type of person that prefers using fitness equipment for your exercise routines, here are few tips to consider before purchasing. Some of the types of fitness equipment available for use can be classified according the type of exercise for which they are built. It is true that the world of fitness equipment can seem like a maze at times and that there are literally hundreds of different types of fitness equipment pieces that might work well for your home arrangement.

You can hop right out of bed to go use your home fitness equipment – you do not need to make sure that your hair looks all right, and you do not need to waste time and money driving to the gym. When choosing home fitness exercise equipment, you need to concentrate on the three s-areas: strength training for muscle toning, stretching for flexibility, and sprinting or a related activity for cardiovascular fitness. Cybex fitness equipment includes devices for cardiovascular exercise, as well as strength training.

In addition to the aforementioned strength training units, Weider fitness equipment includes a wide variety of weight benches and weights, exercise mats and other accessories. Well-known companies such as Reebok offer a variety of other tools and props to help you to gain the most from your home fitness exercise equipment. Some of the large manufacturers such as Cybex, offer their own fitness equipment leasing options.

Documentation involved when leasing fitness equipment for the first time, includes filling out a credit application form, copies of tax returns for principals, personal financial statements, equipment listing, and business plan copies. Once a machine is chosen for a home fitness program, keeping motivated will often depend on the equipment’s ability to grow along with you and your own personal attitude. If a piece of fitness equipment is on demo or display at a store, often it is replaced by a new unit and the demo is removed from the sales floor.

For the best results you should choose at least one piece of fitness equipment from both the cardio fitness equipment & the strength fitness equipment, with a home gym being the recommended piece of equipment for the strength work.

Elliptical machines are one of the most popular pieces of home gym and fitness equipment for cardio workouts now available. A common piece of home fitness equipment is the home gym. While in the past it may have been standard advice when purchasing home strength training equipment to buy a multi-station gym, the latest concept in the fitness industry however is functional training and functional training equipment.

Things To Do At Mount Rushmore, SD: Big Thunder Gold Mine

Tuesday, July 14th, 2009
Ameen Kamadia asked:

Located at the foot of Mount Rushmore is the tiny town of Keystone. Here you can eat, stay, get your souvenirs and take advantage of some of the local tourist attractions. One of which is the Big Thunder Gold Mine.

Big Thunder Gold Mine, originally named the Gold Hill Lode, was discovered in 1893. The mining work was done by two German immigrants, W.B. Krupp and J.A. Engle. Mr. Engle owned several mines in the Keystone, four of which remain on the Big Thunder property. Current exploration shows positive potential for future gold mining in Keystone. Exploration companies have been working in the area and have leased mineral rights on the Big Thunder property.

A visit to the mine allows you to tour an authentic gold mine and have tour guides take you on an adventure which includes Black Hills gold mining history, geology, museum displays, and the opportunity to take home your own gold ore sample.

Placer mining is the retrieval of free-gold from the sand and gravel of the creeks. That is how the first gold was discovered in the Black Hills. Big Thunder Gold Mine offers individualized gold panning lessons next to Battle Creek, where gold was originally discovered on historic Reeds Placer Claim during the 1880s. The Big Thunder gold mine panning experience is guaranteed for you to leave with genuine 24k gold!

The mine also contains a museum which is a replica of the Tycoon Gold Mill built in 1895 on the Big Thunder Property. The museum contains one of the largest displays of original gold mining equipment in the Black Hills. See a Stamp Mill, Crushers, Winches, Assay Office, Cooper and Wilfrey tables, and hundreds of artifacts. Discover the method of how gold is processed from hard rock.

The museum is cool, but the best part of the visit is panning for real gold that you get to take home.

I remember when we went to Alaska for our honeymoon one of the excursions on the cruise was the ability to pan for gold. We did not choose it, because it was way too expensive. But at this mine, you are guaranteed to find something. That is the best part.

The mine also started a new tour where they take you on a candlelight tour of the mine. They are not sure if it is haunted or not, but it sure is creepy. Walking through a bunch of cave like passageways in the dark with nothing but a candle to protect you is not for the faint of heart. But it sure is fun.

The mine also has a couple gift shops, and a restaurant where you can get a quick lunch, or pick up a box lunch for a picnic nearby. If you are staying at Keystone for a few days, this is one place you should check out
