My Stats Are Irrelevant To You

Every day on the net you see someone running around screaming how many people

they recruited or how many leads they generated…

And it always makes me chuckle that people do that and

that people STILL fall for this stuff.

Here’s the deal…

My stats are IRRELEVANT to you.

I mean…come on…

At this stage of my game I generate thousands and thousands of leads and put

person after person into the things I endorse…

Yet you will NEVER hear me spouting the stats…and you will NEVER hear a true professional doing it either…

Why???

Simply because the numbers are just too large to be believable…too daunting to the new guy…

and most of all…NOT FAIR to talk about.

I have been in business for over 10 years…

I have been building an internet list for 5.

OF COURSE I can put in 50 people in a night via a powerful conference call.

OF COURSE I can send a few emails and bring in thousands and thousands of dollars within a day or two…

Of course I can set up a new funnel and attract thousands of leads…

I am a very experienced speaker, writer and marketer…

But what about you???

If you are a new guy are you getting drawn into stuff by the numbers that these folks

trot around the net believing that it is realistic for you to do the numbers too?

If so…PLEASE…STOP..and THINK.

When you hear a crazy story there is ALWAYS an angle to it…

In my case…I have been around building a following for 10 years..

In other cases they neglect to tell you that the person had a four or five figure(or more) advertising budget..

In other cases the person is an experienced video professional who just picked up video marketing…

Or a model..or an actor who took to the you tube screen.

Then there are the people who have been in MLM for 5 years who move a downline over from

somewhere else and tell you they put in 100 people or more in a month but they forget to tell you

where they came from…

And of course we have experienced copy writers that tell you how they signed up a zillion people for FREE

with article marketing.

The list goes on and on…

But in the end…

The stories are all SLANTED and most of the time the people who are peddling them have not been around very long.

All you have to do is look at a KING or QUEEN who has been around and CONSISTENTLY making money for 10 years or longer and you will RARELY see them doing stuff like this.

Hyping people into a purchase…slamming people into a program…

Once you have been around the block enough times you just figure out that that kind of junk

does not work in the long run.

So no…my stats ARE NOT relevant to you.

But I will tell you what I DO recommend you look for…

What is known as a PINNACLE LEADER.

When you see a pro that is SURROUNDED by people that they have taught that are doing

what YOU want to do…

That is a WIN.

Anyone can learn a technique and have a flash in the pan success for a little while…

Heck….I could make a list of all the people who over the last 3 years have come and gone on the internet…

They looked like hot shots…

They were social media icons even…

And yet…

POOF…they disappeared.

Yeah..maybe they poke up their head once in a while to pitch you another time…

Take some more money if they can…

But in the end…

It’s the ones you see that STAY THE COURSE…

DO NOT desert the people who trusted them…

And who have developed an echelon of LEADERS underneath them…

THESE are the people you want to seek out.

And I can count on the fingers of my hands the people I consider to be

PINNACLE LEADERS…

Pumping out PROFESSIONALS as opposed to HYPE MONSTERS.

Pumping out the people that will STAND to lead the NEXT GENERATION.

As opposed to hyping up another flock of people…luring them with “prizes” and t-shirts

Getting you to promote THEIR businesses…NOT YOURS.

And leaving good honest people dead on the side of the road after they have been fleeced of all their money.

My stats are NOT relevant to you…

What IS relevant to you is whether you think I can show you the way…

And if it’s not me…

SO BE IT…

That is fine with me…super fine…

But PLEASE…

Whatever you do…

Find the leader that suits YOU and YOUR STYLE

Don’t buy the HYPE…

You are SMARTER than that.

And most of all…

YOU DESERVE BETTER.

The World ALWAYS Purges Itself of False Leaders

I was on the phone with Joe Schroeder today and he was reading me
a passage that he had written and it just BLEW ME AWAY.

It was SO true

And in fact I had just been discussing this very concept on
one of my coaching calls…

Get this:

The World ALWAYS Purges Itself Of False Leaders By Offering

Them The Taste Of Laziness And Offering Them PRIDE

I wish I had caught the next line…

I didn’t

But it was something to the effect of that when a false leader gets caught in
these traps they repulse the true leader (their teacher) and they are cast aside
by the kings and queens who held out their hand to them and in the end
the false leader will drop from prominence often to never be seen again.

I was just STUNNED as he read the phrase to me this afternoon as I was
trying to put into words some of what I have been seeing out there for the
past few years and closer to home in the past few months.

I could sit and rattle of the names of people who rose to prominence on the
internet in the Network Marketing circles almost overnight and then just as quickly
were swept away by natures fury.

I can list the people who were HERALDED not so long ago by big players
who were left behind as soon as the tide turned and they no longer had the
“mojo” that they believed they had.

Downlines lost…

Programs closed…

Innocents hurt.

I can account to you the people who swaggered around without humility

claiming to be THE NEXT COMING who are now yet a memory…

often having destroyed all the promise of their future.

Bank accounts stripped…

Egos destroyed…

Never to be recovered again.

I consider myself to be blessed that I have walked the line
between old school and new school Network Marketing.

I was brought up in a time where lineage and pedigree were considered
paramount.

Where HONOR and RESPECT for ones upline mentors and TIME and PRODUCTION got you a seat at the suite parties at the big events where secrets were shared and stories were told.

Where HONOR and RESPECT for ones MASTER COLLEAGUES at other companies
brought the industry together. It was these MASTERS that created the products
that we all studied and recommended to folks.

Today it seems everyone believes they can spit out a product after recruiting 12 people
or getting 120 opt ins….

And better yet…

They believe they can charge MORE than the masters
who went before them.

Today so many people think they are smarter than those that have lead for a
decade or more and built huge organizations.

Today people think they are all “COACHES” who can charge innocent newbies thousands of
dollars for marketing and “leadership” training when they themselves have accomplished
very little and are often BROKE living out of studio apartments and juggling their pay per click
advertising on 6 credit cards with $30 left on each one.

Anyone who can talk a good game can run around and claim to be the article king,
the video marketing queen, the blog giant, or the goddess of social media.

And please BE CLEAR…I am NOT talking about people who today have outrageous stories
who began as broke and made it big over several years…I am one of those people.
But I did not pretend to prance around like the Queen of Sheeba after recruiting
10 people and making believe I had a clue. I POINTED TO AND SERVED THE MASTERS as
did all of my colleagues who have gone the distance.

So…

How do I say this…

How do I feel about what I see going on out there?

Let me be delicate…

Oh screw it…

I can’t control myself!

It’s all BULL

It’s all a CANCER

And it makes me ILL

How’s that for blunt.

Remember:
The World ALWAYS Purges Itself Of False Leaders

And knowing that gives me solace as I look around and see all the insanity.

But then again I am still sad as I know thousands are hurt every year.
