I wanted to share the details of an interesting call that I received yesterday from a new member of my team.

I was on the way to getting lunch and my phone rang. It was answered by a voice that I had never heard before. This wasn't very surprising because I'm used to this now.

Actually I've gotten into the habit of answering my phone by saying "This is Daegan Smith" instead of the normal hello because I get so many call like this these days.

Well this guy introduced himself and told me that he was new in the business and he wanted to know if I would him conduct 3 way calls with his prospects and tell him where to purchase good leads.

I immediately smiled, but he couldn't see this.

I told him that I would be more than happy to help in this capacity, but buying leads and conducting three way calls is something that I am neither that good at doing or every really do.

I told him that I have never bought a single lead to grow my current business or talk to anyone on the phone about my business unless they call me or sign up in the business and that this is how things had been since I began promoting.

There was a short uncomfortable and then the guy let out a little chuckle and said "Really?"

I said yeah you don't have to do that kind of stuff if you don't want and honestly I wouldn't recommend it if you value your long term sanity and happiness in the process of growing your business.

He didn't know what to say.

I don't think that this guy ever encounter a business model like this for network marketing so he didn't know what to ask or say next.

I didn't get a chance to check, but he must have been so far down in my genealogy that the chain of communication was broken somewhere along the lines and he didn't get a copy of our team's marketing manual.

I told him to give me call later and we'll get him set up on the right track. He hasn't called yet, but if he's serious I know he will.

I know this may sound a little controversial, but in today's world if you don't to call leads you don't have to. That's just the simple truth!

That's the quick story for today!

I got a great email reply from yesterday's article so I will share!

Hi Daegan!

You are an "expert" so I am listening to everything you have to say having recently joined an MLM!

I get asked the following WRONG question all the time.

"How long until I make money?" you are right! I get asked this too! You have to follow certain steps of course, you can't just hear the testimonials and have a dream list, you have to WORK!!

Level of success depends on WORK, there is plenty of appeal but, there is WORK too! It's frustrating in this business because people think we are trying to ""sell them"", we are not trying to "sell" them on our new venture, we're not trying to get new recruits, people seem to think we are trying to persuade them when we're not, we are genuinely concerned about their health.

Everything is psychological I believe, I think that we are our own worst enemy! They say that most car accidents happen 25 miles from home, that means that it is PSYCHOLOGICAL.

I've seen it time and again with my mom, she will be close to home and start thinking about home and get sleepy, she even has to slap herself sometimes! Like it says in Proverbs, "as a man thinks, so is that man."

"I can't, they won't, don't know how etc" , that is why God gave us free will of course, it is free to think however you want. You are free to think, act, and say anything you please! That is the gift of Life, after all.

You create your experience completely. It's all you. If you're unhappy with something, if you're "suspicious", if you're angry, if you're happy as all get-out...it's all You.
