(EZ Wealth Solution) The Worst Question You Could Ever Ask!
73Don't worry I'm Guilty of this too!
Most of us when we start out in this network marketing craze we are of course looking to make some extra money. Some of us are looking to actually start our own business and do this full time, but in the back of our minds we are not really taking this industry seriously because we've been always told "Network Marketing" is a scam. However we set out to find our solution to eliminate of poverty situation from network marketing anyway.
The problem is we don't realize how vulnerable we are when we start out. We are actually more vulnerable than we realize. The reason why I say this is because there are professional Network marketers out here that are waiting for us to be professional "Buyers". They are waiting for us to arrive with our "Poverty Mindsets".
What do you mean Antonio, and what does the Worst Question has to do with this?
Don't worry I'm getting to that. This is what I mean. If you are frustrated with your financial situation whether you are in debt or your bills are high, or you just don't have enough money to do the things you want to do or go to the places you want to go.. And you take this frustration TO YOUR COMPUTER to find and answer to alleviate your financial situation, you are setting yourself up for destruction.
And thus leads you to ask the worst question you could ever ask while thinking with a poverty mindset. When you ask this question, professional marketers instantly know you are a "Newbie". Well here is the Worst Question you could ever ask in network marketing......................
How much Money have you made in this business?
Wow....Does that sound like you?. It sounded like me I admit it. So picture this scenario. You are starving for some extra cash or to escape from your job. You search the internet for a way to make money from home, and you come across a professional internet marketer who tells you can make $15,000 in a particular program in 45 days. They even have a video explaining how possible this is for anyone to do. You are easily impressed because you need money now.
You find the nerve to call the guy or gal, and you ask How much money have you made in this program? You have now opened yourself up for a lie that you will live with.
What happens now is that The expert internet marketer has you in the palm of their hand. They know by the question you just asked that you are a newbie and you are ready "To Buy" if he or she says the right thing to make you act.
If this is an unscrupulous person they will say that they made and enormous amount of money in a very short period of time and you can do it too if you apply yourself......and that's it.
Now since you are in a desperate mindset, you believe that all you have to do is join and you will experience the same success. There goes your life savings.
Please - Please - Please don't ask this question! I don't want you to lose any more money. It has nothing to do with the program....and it has everything to do with how well you market and brand Yourself!
Please Keep Reading.....
But if you were speaking to a good person who was willing to tell you the truth, he would tell you that he had ben marketing himself for a year now and have already built a strong list of people that will respect and act on any recommendation he gives. He would tell you that you must learn how to market yourself efectively in order to experiene the same kind of sucesss.
He would tell you to "Google his name" and see how his name is spread across the internet by articles, hub pages, social marketing sites, ezines....etc.
He would tell you that he also uses "PAID ADVERTISING" as well to get traffic and leads. He would also tell you that you should not ask this question in the future to decide if this business is for you. He would also tell you to not think about making money right now but to put yourself and mindset in a learning posture to learn as much as you can about "Marketing Effectively".
He would also give you Free information to learn how to market and to learn how to have the right mindset to be sucessful in this business.
He would Love People and Use Money......Not the other way round.
This is how you know you are speaking to someone who cares about your success. Not just your money.
You have now been empowered!

What you bring out is true, a good network marketer is going to share value and useful information so as to build a group who will continue to come back for more. Also a good network marketer is a teacher who is able to motivate and inspire others. Thanks for sharing.
Sorry, I disagree.
The web is full of people who have just bought the latest, greatest moneymaking opportunity, and in most cases the way they make their money is to try and flog it as an affiliate to pretty well everyone they come in contact with.
If I was interested in buying something like this, one of the first things I would be doing is searching for other peoples experiences with the product.
Then I would be asking the seller whether how they are making use of the product they are selling, how long they have been using it, and what sort of returns they have been getting.
And if you think that makes me a clueless newbie, then so be it.
I have a different take on it. I call it due diligence.

Eric,
Thanks so much for your comment. Yes Due Diligence is very important.
But if you don't know someone from a can of paint, and you ask them those questions. How do you know if they are telling you the truth? Really.......How would you know? The answer is "there's no way to tell"
What are you gonna do? ask to see their bank statements? and even those can be manipulated thru "Photoshop". You see you're making your statement with the "assumption" that someone will tell you the truth about their personal business. That's a big mistake in my opinion.
My point here, especially to the newbies, is that people will lie to you and tell you what you need to hear to make you react and spend your hard earned money. And in alot of cases there are people that spend their life savings. That's unfair.
You have to learn how to crawl before you learn how to walk. Then when you have the "walking down", then you learn how to run. The same with a car. If you've never driven a car before, you are not just gonna buy your a car and start driving, I don't care what the "salesman" says. You have to lean the "laws" of the road. You have to learn how to operate the car and then learn how to operate the car around other vehicles on the road. You get my point?
If you are going to get involved with a business that involves "Network Marketing", you have to learn "How To Market Yourself" You have to learn how to "Brand" yourself. You have to learn about the "mindset" of your prospect or your consumer. Not About How Much Money Was Made. That information will not help you at all. You also have to learn about the mindset "you" must have when starting this business. You must have a mentor.....This is a must.
I'm just saying that there are much better questions to ask than, "what sort of returns are you getting" Here's why and then I'll stop after this point.
If they have an advertsiing budget of $10,000 but they don't tell you, and you only have $100. How is their answer going to help you? You will be deceived. and then you will not get the same result. You will get frustrated.
And then you will quit. Again and again.
Do yourself a huge favor and take 6 months to a year and learn how to market and Brand yourself Effectively first. Read specific books that will teach you how to gear your thoughts toward success. I will e-mail these books to you if need be.
You do your "Due Diligence" by learning how to market yourself ...First.
If you want, send me a blank e-mail to abrutusmarketing@getresponse.com and I will send you a 5 part series of my blog that will teach some important factors on marketing and Branding.
Peace and Blessings!

Thanks for responding Antonio.
Of course I could be getting lies from people online when I ask questions.
And quite frankly, any financial amounts that they give are of far less importance than the dialogue that is opened up.
You are perfectly correct to say that initially you don't know anyone from a can of paint.
However, the way that they respond to queries gives you a wealth of information about them, if you are attuned to that sort of thing.
An important skill to develop, both online and offline, is being able to quickly determine the answer to the question: "Can I trust this person".
And then act accordingly.
Thanks for your offer of e-books, but I don't need any more material on that topic.
All the best with your endeavours.
Regards, Eric G.
