My Journey Before Arriving at the Ultimate Marketers Guide

Life before the Ultimate Marketers Guide, where I was before
that and what experiences did I have that I could share with
you? Well lets just try to keep it focused on the online, IM,
MLM parts of my life, I will keep it short as it is really
something that most people that I know, have experienced.

What's that? Failure, and it's presented in so many different
ways. Well, my work from home first experience was one
that I would rather forget, I signed up, paid money, received
executive pack,lots of glossy bits and pieces to throw
around. A whole bunch of product to use and no training.
Just make a list of all the people you know etc etc etc. How
many times have you heard that, it has probably happened
to you.


So, that did not work very well, no training and heard from
my sponsor once after joining!


Now, don't get me wrong, I am not blaming outside
influences for the failure, but they were a contributing
factor. Anyway let's move from the blame to the history,
if you want to call it that!


We, my wife Karen and I, moved to another and another
and finally a fourth. We failed at all of them for various
reasons. The main one, when we think back on it all, was
that everything was portrayed as an easy way to make
money from home. So what happens then? When we find
something is harder than we think it is going to be, we
quit!


That is what we did.


Now, here we are back again, some years later. Why?
Well we need to make some more money than we have. I
am getting closer to my retirement and need more. Simple
as that! Guess what, not a lot has changed over the years.
There are thousands and thousands of promises out there,
how to in 30days, I made $273,000 in 6 weeks etc. There
are many who still fall for the QUICK BUCK but it is my
guess that unless you win the lottery, the quick dollar is
a myth! You know that too!! Or if you don't know it, you
at least suspect it. Right?


So, here I am, some years older and some say quite a bit
wiser. That does not necessarily follow does it? Just
because I am older does not mean I am wiser. On with it!


Get the bulldozer out and try to move all of the rubbish out
of the way. Do the best job as you are able in doing your
own due diligence. See if you can find out who is running
the organisation. Are they accessible? Do they exist? There
are tons of areas to explore. Be level headed and DO NOT
be attracted by HYPE.

Hard I know, but do it!


Another thing you can do is to check on testimonials, if
there is information other than the person making the
testimonial, such as addresses etc, try to trace them down.
Did they really give the testimonial, stuff like that. I have
been approached for that kind of information. People will
not mind.


See if you can chat with current members, get their point of
view, most likely their response will be positive. You will be
able to read through the lines and assess their comments.
Having done as much due diligence as you can, maybe you
decide to join an opportunity, take any advantage you can
on any offers the company may offer, such as join free and
upgrade later. Any offer that gives you more time to
complete your evaluation should be taken before your final
decision is made.

Having made your choice. COMMIT!!
