Make Money Even When People Say NO!

*UPDATE 06.06.06 1:31 PM EST *

It was brought to my attention that my autoresponder
service, Getresponse, included my List Dragon PDF as
an attachment in todays email broadcast. How it got
attached to the out-bound email is still a mystery to me.
It shouldn’t have happened. I’ll be more careful about
what I’m sending out.

Please accept my apology.

06.05.06

I’m going to give you a lesson today that’s potentially
worth tens of thousands of dollars to you over the span
of your Internet / Network Marketing career.

Yes, it’s worth that much to you so drop whatever it is
that you’re listening too or reading elsewhere and feast
your eyeballs on the next few lines of text.

Even if you’re a “NEWBIE” ( we all were at one time )
and regardless of the program…

* Coastal

* Liberty League

* Xooma

* Xango

* Prosperity Automated Systems

* Veema

* Herbalife

* Country Club

* World of Wealth Today

* Shaklee

* Eniva

* Mentors in Motion

* Life Force

* Formor

* AmeriPlan

* Pre Paid Legal

* 1 Step System

* Amway & Quixtar

* Whatever…

If you’re not offering your prospects and customers
a “BACK-END” offer, you’re losing MONEY!

I’m seeing a lot of folks ( especially those in deals where
the start-up is $1000 or more ) with no BACK-END structure
in place and NO Follow-Up system in place.

Can you scream… “That’s MADNESS Tim”!

Exactly!

Just today…

I spoke with a Phase 1 & 2 Director in XYZ Corp.

You know what he’s doing? He’s calling $7 “movie leads”
and those that don’t buy ( that would be the over-whelming majority ), he’s importing into his programs “automated
system”.

Never to be personally contacted again.

That’s it.

No back-end.

No opportunities for additional cash-flow.

No relationship building.

HUGE MISTAKE!

Listen…

If you want to spend your hard earned money buying
“leads” and allowing your programs “automated system”
to follow up, that’s fine. It’s your business. Literally!

But if you want to turn those “leads” into CASH-FLOW,
then you need to be implementing the idea I’m about to
share with you. And today would not be too soon!

Here’s the idea…

Say you’re generating 100 leads from your Google Adwords campaigns each week.

Out of those 100 real-time, search engine generated leads,
95 – 96 will NOT join your primary deal.

( I know, I know… the truth hurts! )

This leaves you with 4-5 prospects out of every 100 who
MIGHT be potential business partners.

Focus your time on these people.

But…

What do you do with the remaining 95-96 out of
every hundred who tell you NO?

Do you allow them to slip through the cracks?

No way…

They’re looking for something to do from home.

That’s why they replied to your ad.

But you know that most of them won’t join your deal.

And that’s OK.

Why?

Because you can offer them something that’s 100%
generic, that will help them achieve their goals in any
program they choose.

How do you do this?

You keep EVERYONE in your own personal database.

One that you control.

Use an autoresponder like Getresponse.

It’s a simple approach to managing your growing lists.

Then what do you do?

( Here’s where the fun starts! )

Once they’ve rejected your initial offer, you offer them CHOICES.

Like what you ask?

Like other peoples information products.

Or leads.

Or tools they would use to build any program they might join.

Like autoresponders or websites.

Why do you think I’m a reseller of Gold Calling, Magnetic
Sponsoring, List Dragon, ListFX and other opportunities?

Because I know for a fact that the over whelming majority
of the people I meet will NOT join me in my primary deal.

So I throw “BACK-ENDS” into the mix.

Gold Calling made me over $30K.

Magnetic Sponsoring brings me $200 a month.

List Dragon has brought me over $7K… so far.

Most ( if not all of it ) came from people who said
NO to my primary deal.

What would have happened if I forgot about or discarded
the thousands of names in my pipeline who didn’t have
an interest in my deal but ended up joining XYZ program?

The answer…

A ) I would have missed out financially.

B ) I would have missed out on creating dozens of
relationships with folks who ended up buying from
someone else because I never asked them to buy
from me.

( You don’t want to make these 2 mistakes! )

Ask yourself this question…

How valuable would a pool of prospects and customers
who know, like and trust you be worth to you?

Answer…

Priceless!

I know that when I jump into my new deal, I’ll have maybe
10-20 serious prospects knocking on my door wanting in.

All because I treated them like a person and not as a “lead”.

( More on that later )

So…

Here’s the game-plan for YOU to follow right now.

I will assume that you already have an autoresponder
going and have a few prospects in your pipeline.

Good.

Next…

Send them an email about YOU.

Better yet…

Create a Who is “YOUR NAME GOES HERE” page.

( Coming Soon –> http://www.WhoIsTimBerger.net )

Complete with pictures and a brief story of who YOU are.

People love that stuff.

I spend hours finding out about the people I work with
more so than the actual program itself.

Anyways…

Once you have that up, share that link with your list.

You’ll be amazed at the number of people who will be
checking you out at 3 AM!

Next…

After you’ve established the very important “Know me, Like
me and Trust me” factor, let them know you’re involved with other programs.

The quickest way to do this is by selling other peoples
information products. For me, I’m a huge reseller of
Joe Schroeders materials. Pick someone you resonate
with, buy their product and if it meets your standards,
then offer it to your list. Chances are good that if you
liked it, your prospects will like it too.

Especially if you’re hitting your target market.

( This is a subject I’ll cover later this week! )

This is how you can create extra income streams from
that same list of people who said NO.

Plus…

Not only are you creating cash-flow, but more importantly,
you’re establishing quality contacts / relationships with your
prospect list.

That…

If you haven’t picked up on it yet…

Is your biggest ASSET online.

Remember…

* Keep EVERYONE in your own database.

* Offer your list items of value.

* Establish relationships with those customers.

* Join future deals together.

This is how the game is played.

Now you know how to make money when people say NO!

Here’s Wishing You Loads of Success,

Tim

PS: Want to learn more about how to get people to
send you money even if they don’t join your primary deal?

You’re invited to join one of our 100% Generic Coaching & Development calls each night, Mon – Thurs @ 9:30 PM EST.

Phone: 1.641.793.7000
Pin: 600088#

Listen in on Monday nights call with Diane Hochman:

If you like what you hear, grab the $400 A Day PDF HERE!

Don’t Forget About 7Search

I was on a call earlier tonight with 3 individuals who
are doing very well in their respective MLM programs.

We got to talking about generating traffic.

The usual was mentioned…

* Solo Ads

* Article Distribution

* SafeLists

* Traffic Exchanges

* Pay Per Clicks ( Google )

Then I chimed in with “How about 7Search”?

Complete silence for what seemed like an eternity.

Not one of the 3 had heard of 7Search.

I couldn’t believe it.

7Search is #4 on the Search Engine popularity chart.

1) Google

2) Yahoo

3) MSN

4) 7Search

If you’re running any programs, affiliate, MLM, Direct Sales, etc… don’t overlook it.

7Search is a low cost alternative to the Big 3.

You’ll find a lot of the same keywords available on 7Search
for a fraction of the cost that Google or Yahoo is charging.

Keep in mind…

You won’t get as much traffic from 7Seach as you will
from Google or Yahoo.

And that’s OK.

7Search would be in addition to, not replace of, your
present marketing campaigns.

I’ve included the Keyword Suggestion Tool for 7Search.

Go HERE for it

Do a sample search using any keyword.

You’ll see EXACTLY what your Top 5 competitors are paying.

You can instantly take over the #1 or #2 spots for any of
the keywords you want.

Play around with it.

If you want to get started with 7Search, open an account
for $25. ( That amount is applied to your campaigns. )

One more thing…

I’ve included Overtures Keyword Selector Tool
( Use it to locate additional keywords )

As well as Overtures Bid Tool
( Use it to find out what other people are bidding for the same keywords you’re wanting to use. )

The information you’ll find from using Overtures Keyword
Selector and Bid Tool will be a fair comparison to what’s
happening on Google. Not always equal, but close.

Final thought…

Keep your keywords targeted to the audience you’re after.
The more focused your campaigns are, the fewer leads you’ll
attract. But the trade off is that with a focused campaign,
you’ll attract the people who are looking for you.

On Tuesday, I hired a personal trainer to assist me
in getting back into shape.

His name’s Brent.

Cool guy…

Young, hip, tan and strong.

During my first lesson with him on Thursday morning, he
said something to me that hit me like a spider web on an
empty trail.

He said…

It’s your life, your health, your decision.

WOW!

How simple and true that statement is.

It got me thinking about the other areas of my life too
besides health…. personally, professionally, financially.

It’s my decision to do the things I know I need to do
in order to achieve and receive the things I want to have.

My decision to NOT work out won’t affect Brent.

It will affect me.

It’s my life.

It’s my health.

Not his.

So when Tuesday morning rolls around and the alarm goes off
at 6:30 AM, I’ll be thinking to myself that it’s my life, my health,
my decision.

Will I get up or hit the snooze 7 more times?

I think…

I’ll be at the gym by 7:30 AM.

Brent will be there at 5:30 AM.

For him, it’s a lifestyle.

For me, it’s a decision I have to make every day.

How about you?

What decisions are you making that will impact your life,
health and finances?

What decisions are you ( PUTTING OFF ) making that
will have an impact on your life, health and finances?

Sometimes things that are easy to do are also easy NOT to do.

That’s why everything always comes back full circle to…

It’s your Life. Your Health. Your Decision.

Take Care, Tim

Talk about total dumbness….

Network Marketing / MLM Leads / Affiliate Marketing / List Dragon

24 HR Rec. Message –> 1.800.772.9781 Ext 10

06.01.06

Hey Guys…

Talk about total dumbness. I wasted over
$3,200 and maybe like four (4) years asking
ALL THE WRONG questions.

WRONG QUESTION:

–> Does your program sell inside of other countries?

WRONG QUESTION:

–> Does your upline earn $50,000 per month?

WRONG QUESTION:

–> Does your company manufacture their own
products oh and, does your nutrition products
have X,Y,Z ingredients?

WRONG QUESTION:

–> What percentage of opt ins does your
affiliate site capture? Give me ratios.

( The Bloke asking about ratios doesn’t even know
how to raise his own opt-in list to over 100 people
and yet he is asking about ratios. )

Think about it. NONE of that adds up to money.

It’s just an indecisive re-run wasting your time.

BETTER QUESTION:

–> Before I enroll with you fax me your MLM
geneology report, I want to enroll with someone
who is doingthedo, not a blow hard yakker-upper.

Here is what that means:

BE a BUSINESS person and only work and
enroll with someone who is earning at least
$2000 to $5000 per month or more.

Set higher standards for yourself and for
the person TRYING to recruit you.

MISTAKE: Do you falsely think that enrolling with
a MAJOR PLAYER is your answer? Guess what, most
major players (with gold implants) are so busy
running their army that they have little time for
newbies.

So, think twice before you search for the
Holy Grail and look for a Millionaire to enroll you!

Mistake: DO NOT JOIN and be sponsored by
a STRANGER who has yet not proven to you
that they ACTUALLY make money in what
they are TRYING to sell you for dag-gum sakes
already.

Oops. I already told you that one. Next,

You need to build a business, not to make
new friends on-line.

Logic. Just logic.

BETTER QUESTION: (ask this)

–> DO YOU have an off line system and if you
do, mail it to me for FREE to look at.

Look guys, let me give you the [MLM] WISDOM of the AGES:

ALL and I mean ALL great programs have a GREAT
off line sales process. From Herbal Life to ForMor
to Nu-Creations to Melaleuca. Plus that Noni company
too.

LEARN THIS:

YOU DO NOT build your MLM on-line.
YOU do not run a TV Network on TV.
YOU do not sell books at Amazon.com

MIND-SHIFT: You purchase books at Amazon
that were sold to you off line.

Here is what I mean:

TV Networks are BUILT outside of and off TV.
BOOKS are sold through word of mouth and
marketing that happens between people, not
between clicks and your PC.

YOU do not BUILD an MLM on-line. Ever.

You capture leads and much of your
Incubation with prospects is on-line, but
they are sold OFF line. Ask any Pro.

Also, you market and people incubate on-line
and off line and they use multiple
sources of media to plant their
consciousness into your program.

Hence, without OFF Line tools and tapes and
a true DIRECT RESPONSE media plan for
MLM direct response and you [IS] dead.

HISTORY says so, not me.

Here is a SECRET and a hidden MLM factor that
the brand NEW people never think to INVESTIGATE:

1) ALL great MLM plans perpetuate and explode
FIRST off line. Moreover, all GREAT MLM’s and
significant downlines have a POWER PACK of
off line systems and tools.

Don’t they.

BE SMART: Look at that and investigate that
BEFORE you join a program.

2) The only people attempting to sell you
an INTERNET MLM are get rich quickers who
have TERRIBLE social skills, who can’t recruit
others and lead, and who HIDE, literally, behind
their computers.

Every hear an SFI conference call?
Think about it.

Does the “hot” MLM site that you use have
an off-line audio tape? No? That’s because
they do not have any true DIRECT RESPONSE
in their system.

Tsk. Tsk. Tsk.

Does the white hot “affiliate” web-site that you use
to build your MLM also have post cards and tapes and
drop cards and off line systems to BRING people [back]
to your site?

If not, that because you are using a reflection of a
business model, not an actual proven tried and true
business plan.

Dumb and getting dumber. I used to be. Then
I learned HOW TO EVALUATE any opportunity
objectively. Then I learned how to take that
information that I accumulated and turned that
into a F/T income for my family and me.

YOU certainly can too. You can and you
know you can!

Next,

DUMB: I was so dumb, that years back I was sucker
punched into believing that PRODUCTS made
the program. Go ahead, mock me out for that,
my girlfriend did.

[ WINK ]

Because guess what…

Products DONT make you money, leadership does.

If products made you rich, you’d already be living
in a Castle because how many HOT PRODUCTS have
you tried to sell over the years?

And where are you today, are you full-time yet?

IF hot-hot internet sites were the answer, you
would already have 500 ACTIVE under you and
you would be F/T by now.

BETTER QUESTION:

–> Is the leadership of your company that
STARTED your company STILL visible, active
and in place?

WHY is that a good question? BECAUSE that
question identifies whether or not the company
can maintain it’s original leadership.

Look, if you are THINKING like a legitimate
business person and not some re-run get-rich
quicker, you are THINKING long term.

SO ask intelligent LONG term questions.

Last tip and this will challenge your logic.

Watch this…

When choosing a program to WRAP your
FAMILY name on, not to mention your families
TIME and money, choose 2-3-4 programs and
JOIN all of them.

That’s a paradigm shift, isn’t it.

Do this:

Pick 2-3-4 HOT PROGRAMS and just flat out join them.
Join them for the single intent to GET INSIDE.

Do that to learn.

How is their customer service? You won’t know until you join.

Will you.

How long does delivery of their products take?

You won’t know until you join.

Are the products actually any good and hey,
HOW will I be treated by my sponsor and upline
AFTER we consummate the signing and the prospecting
dollar dance?

One never knows, does one, until you are in
and you have already invested hundreds of dollars
and it’s too late to look back.

So instead,

INVEST $300 and join 2-3-4 hot deals
that you are seriously looking at.

Then, take 2-3-4 weeks and kick the tires.

Real world logic. That’s all that is.

I lost well over $3,000 and years of my
life asking all the dumb questions.

Now I make twice that in a week. But it
didn’t happen without knowing what
to look for, knowing what factors
actually makes a program a success
and doingthedo.

How many GOOD earning years do you
have left, maybe a dozen?

So why WASTE such precious time!!!!

But instead, most people spend all of their time
TRYING TO REASON everything out and they
never actually DO THE BUSINESS.

All of a sudden they are spending $300 per month
BEING a LURKER in other people’s business. They will
buy course after course and Ebook after Ebook and
do nothing but waste their time trying to REASON
everything out so it fits nice and neat into their brains.

But that’s a whole nother story, isn’t it.

Hope this helps, I am sure it did.

Take care,

Tim
