There's a reason why she has the nickname "The Renegade Network Marketer."
Ann Sieg is one of the most controversial figures to hit the network marketing industry.
Her brutally honest, hold no punches style of writing is responsible for the success of her free ebook
"The 7 Great Lies of Network Marketing" as well as her paid ebook "The Renegade Network Marketer."
There are many reasons why she certainly lives up to the moniker as a Renegade Network Marketer.
Perhaps it is due to some of the profanity laced responses she has received.
For instance, here's an
example of one of the emails she received
"I read this whole thing (your website) and the whole time
I figured you were selling
something and I was right. You are a piece of [expletive deleted] and you have
to answer to God - good luck with that."
Maybe it's due to her unwillingness to "follow the system" as outlined by
many of the network marketing leaders in the industry. The system that is based on traditional network marketing strategies
such as making a list of friends and family, calling leads and prospecting strangers using the "three foot rule."
It could also be her unwillingness to deceive prospects.
For instance, in her book, "The Renegade Network Marketer"
Ann shares the story of how she was asked by a leader in a network marketing company to design a training.
That's not the unusual part.
The unusual part is that this company claims you don't need to talk to
anybody and that the system will do all the work for you.
What cannot be denied however is the level of
success she has created for herself as well as others based on the concepts she outlines in her books.
As a struggling distributor participating in network marketing on and off for almost 20 years,
Ann was the ideal distributor.
She came to all the meetings.
She attended all of
the trainings.
She plugged into the system and did everything her leaders told her to do.
The problem was, she just wasn't having any success with these methods.
When she asked her leaders
why she wasn't having success and what she should do, her leaders replied to keep going through the numbers and
keep plugging into the system.
She continued this endless cycle of success until finally, one day she had enough.
At this point the Renegade Network Marketer in Ann was born.
It was at this point of decision where
Ann decided that she would no longer follow the "proven system of success" as outlined by her network marketing leadership.
Instead, she made the decision to run her business like a sales and marketing business.
Instead of chasing after prospects,
she developed marketing systems to have prospects come to her.
Instead of talking to more people, she made a decision to talk
to less people.
These people would be people that demonstrated a level of seriousness about getting started in her business.
Instead of spending all of her money on the proven company system, she decided to create her own retail business surrounded around
the marketing of an information product.
The sales from this product allowed her to generate leads at a profit instead of
spend money on leads and never make any money.
The end result?
She became the #1 recruiter for her
network marketing company.
She build a multiple six figure income with only a part of that income coming
from her network marketing company.
Most importantly, she developed a following of other network marketers both
within her team and those who purchased her products.
These people tried the strategies and techniques she outlined
and had success with them as well.
Ann has cemented her place as one of the most influential and controversial
network marketing trainers on the internet today.
Who is Mike Dillard and What Is His Impact On The Network Marketing Industry?
July 8, 2008 7:23 PM
You Are About To Discover How You Can Literally Attract An
Endless Stream Of Prospects To You, Credit Card In Hand, Ready To Join Automatically.
This is the headline that made Mike Dillard famous.
As the creator of the "Magnetic
Sponsoring" book, Mike offers a very unique approach to building a network marketing business.
Most distributors focus on sharing their products & business opportunity with as many people
as possible.
Mike, on the other hand, has a completely different approach. He refuses to
share his product & business opportunity with anybody unless they ask him first.
This unique approach allowed Mike to go from waiting tables to a 7 figure income in only 18 months.
How did he do it?
He did it with his Magnetic Sponsoring system and approach to building the network
marketing business.
However, it wasn't always like this.
At one time, Mike Dillard had very little
success in the industry.
Mike Dillard got started in network marketing when he was only 20 years old.
He plugged into the system.
He went to every meeting that was available to him.
He went to all the company trainings.
He made an average of 100 phone calls a day.
He also spent a lot of money on marketing tools and advertising.
Despite his commitment
and dedication, he only personally sponsored a handful of people.
Five years later, he was
completely broke and had to get a job waiting tables just to be able to eat.
Fortunately for him, he read an email promoting the foundation of what would eventually
become his Magnetic Sponsoring system.
However, this approach was much different than
the advice he received from his up line leaders.
He decided to try it out and it literally
changed his business.
Instead of spending hundreds of dollars a month trying to get people
to let him show them the plan, he now had people paying him to see information about his business.
He started making money every day even if he showed no one the marketing plan because of the system he had in
place.
In addition to that, he also started having prospects track him down and ask him about his business
opportunity.
These prospects were serious prospects looking to join his network marketing opportunity
and work with Mike.
The end result was the birth of the "Magnetic Sponsoring" system and the
approach that revolutionized Mike's network marketing business.
Fast forward to today and
Mike Dillard now makes over a million dollars a year from this system.
He recently attended
his network marketing company's convention.
Out of the top five recruiters at the company,
four out of the five were personally sponsored by Mike.
Mike experiences a level of success
in the network marketing industry that he only dreamed about in the past and it's all thanks to his
"Magnetic Sponsoring" recruiting system.
In addition to that, he's not the
only one having success with the system.
Mike features a ton of success stories of
other distributors who have implemented his strategies with success in their own right.
One gentleman went from struggling to recruit people using traditional network marketing
strategies and techniques to recruiting over 1123 people into his organization.
All of this happened as a result of Mike's teachings and following the principles
outlined in Mike's courses and materials.
Mike Dillard now offers a number of different
courses and materials.
He has a home study course "MLM Traffic Formula"
where he teaches you how to generate leads online using internet marketing strategies and techniques.
He also has a book called "Building on a Budget" where he teaches you low budget
strategies to building your network marketing business.
Recently he also released his book
"Black Belt Recruiting" which teaches you how to use the phone with confidence and talk to those
who qualified and sponsor them for your network marketing opportunity.
However, none of this would
have been possible if Mike didn't make that shift a few short years ago to move from a traditional method
of building a network marketing business to his magnetic sponsoring philosophy.
This philosophy has allowed Mike to become a millionaire and has changed the lives
of thousands of network marketing distributors for the better.

There is currently a lot of
negative news going on these days.
With talks of the economy facing a recession,
people losing their homes to foreclosure and massive layoffs by some of the largest
corporations there is a lot to be discouraged by.
Despite all of these challenges,
there is also another side to America that is not being talked about.
For all the talk of negative economic conditions there is also another group of people who are living their dreams, earning incredible incomes and enjoying a lifestyle most others only dream of.
This is the side that Ellie wants to use to inspire people.
She certainly has the background and the experiences to talk about this side of America.

Jeffery Combs is the President and CEO of Golden Mastermind
Seminars Inc.

of training and support resources available to the network marketing
and work from home industry.
Jeffery offers a wealth of audio based
training on a wide variety of different topics to help a network marketing
distributor have success in his or her business.
Some of the topics
available include prospecting, creating a 7 figure income, mindset, prosperity,
closing prospects, connecting with people in the moment and more!
Jeffery and Erica train at a variety of different conferences and seminars
throughout the year.
There are two seminars in particular that they host
that offer incredible value to network marketing distributors.
The first is the Breakthrough To Success seminar.
Sometimes,
we as distributors have so much emotional baggage that it hinders us from
being successful.
This seminar helps you to overcome that baggage so
you can be free to build a successful business.
Held in an intimate
setting and limited to 30 people this seminar may be exactly what you need
to take your business to the next level.
The second is the More Heart
than Talent Mindset Conference.
At this conference Jeffery and Erica bring
together some of the top trainers in the personal development industry to teach you
how to get the most out of what you want in your life and business.
The next conference features two heavyweight keynote speakers in the form of
Jim Rohn and Mark Victor Hanson.
One of the highlights of their company
is the coaching program.
Jeffery has been coaching clients at all levels
for over 10 years now.
Prior to getting involved in the training industry
he built a direct sales and network marketing organization successfully.
As a result, he knows how to guide clients step by step through the process
and identifying the key changes the client needs to make to take their business
to the next level.
One of Jeffery's most impressive resources is
his conference call library.
Every Tuesday night Jeffery hosts a conference
call designed to help distributors develop the right mindset that is necessary for
success.
If you miss a call, he has all of the calls available in an
archive available for download right on the main web site.
Some of
the topics available for these conference calls include effective communication,
asking for the sale, how to deal with procrastination, self empowerment,
prospecting scripts and techniques, the psychology of people and more!
Like many of the trainers in the industry, Jeffery's primary focus
is on mindset, motivation and traditional network marketing strategies and techniques.
If you are looking for specific training on internet marketing based attraction
marketing strategies, you will have to look elsewhere as you will not find this
information with Jeffery's company.
However, even if you build
your business primarily using attraction marketing, you will need to develop
the right mindset and this is where Jeffery's tools and resources can help you.
If you are looking to take your business to the next level, consider Jeffery
Combs and his Golden Mastermind Seminars Company!
Dani Johnson - the personality behind http://www.danijohnson.com
and all of the training and resources behind this web site is a very powerful and very
inspirational trainer making a major contribution to the network marketing industry.
Entering the industry as a broke cocktail waitress she was able to build a million
dollar business in network marketing in only 2 years.
Dani has a unique style
to her training.
She is very "in your face" and comes off as very
authoritative but in a sincere as oppose to an arrogant sort of way.
This style works very well for her as she has built a multi-million
dollar training business as a result of it.
In fact, she may be one of the most visited network
marketing training web sites that does NOT offer some type
of affiliate program.
One of the major features
of her training is The Profit Zone.
At The Profit Zone you get access to free training
calls done by Dani Johnson herself.
She does weekly training calls that you can plug into.
There is also a training call archive that you can access as well.
Therefore if there is a call that you missed in the past you can retrieve
it from the archive.
In addition, you also get access to tools
and resources that Dani Johnson recommends to help you build your business.
There are even articles by Dani that you can read as well.
All of this is
available at The Profit Zone.
Dani provides a number of different training
resources you can purchase as well.
One of her premiere products is her
Dani Johnson Live In North Carolina set.
This 10-CD set covers a wide
variety of different topics related to building a network marketing business.
Topics include mindset, retailing, recruiting, identifying different types of
personalities in your organization, closing and more!
Another hot product of Dani's
is her script book.
In this book and CD set she shares with you exactly
what she would say to prospects for a variety of different scenarios.
These scenarios include cold market, warm market, referrals, follow-up calls,
voice mails and more.
If you are the type of person that benefits
from scripts and hearing specific verbiage and voice tone, the script book and
CD training is something you want to look into.
Dani is a Christian and
she makes that fact VERY evident in her trainings.
If you are also a Christian,
you will find her trainings very encouraging and will likely connect very well with her
philosophies around building a network marketing business as well as life in general.
If you are not a Christian but you are able to get the training content you need without
being offended by Dani sharing her Christian views then you too will get a tremendous amount of
value out of her training.
However, if you are easily offended by people sharing their
religious beliefs, this training is not for you.
In addition to network marketing and
home business training, Dani also provides training and resources in two other categories as well.
She has general personal and self development training.
She also has specific training for
Christians as well.
Dani Johnson training is an excellent resource that deserves a place in any
serious network marketing distributor's arsenal.
I highly recommend it for you and your organization
regardless of what company or business building style you use.
