I am in network marketing for more then 5 years now, back at the end of 2010 I started with big goals, motivation and enthusiasm…because all I wanted was to fire my boss and to have more time for the things that were important for me: family, kids, traveling and of course being significant in this life.

My husband also saw the possibility of time and financial freedom and we started to build our network marketing business together…we have done everything it was necessary and everything that our up line taught us…

We called all our friends, family, colleagues, acquaintances, everybody until we finished our lists.

We had good results in our first year, we recruited 60 people directly, made all most $40.000 in our first year, we reached leaders team level in our business…and everything happened in our first 12 months of business.

But after the first year, our warm list finished and we started struggling… after 3 years of business we lost our downlines 3 times and almost all our sponsors left the company confusing our teams…

So with desperation we started prospecting online and offline, nothing seems to work, we were buying courses after courses, books after books, going to seminar after seminar, nothing was working for us…

But we were confident that in the end we will have success … so we put more time and more money on our business…

Our first child came in our life and we started making more and more debts and also it was time to re prioritize everything, because our daughter was needing all my attention…

So in this circumstances, my husband decided to leave his job for 1 year and build the business full time…something started to grow but not enough.

We were prospecting offline and online, calling 10-20 people per day and meeting 30 people per week, all most 1% from these people were joining us, but it wasn’t enough to create the momentum.

So in that year we recruited some new business partners and at the end of the year only 2 were still active.

For family’s financial sake my husband turned back to a full time job so we were at the point of quitting our business because I couldn’t continue building this way.

I was not having the time and energy to continue meeting people from cold market and gain their trust and make them to see the opportunity and also having time to raise our daughter and to prepare for the new boy that was going to come into our life …

And with the last resources of faith I started to search all over the internet “how to build your network marketing business online without having to leave your home”.

As a matter of fact in my heart all I wanted was guidance, I was hoping to find a mentor to show me what I should do step by step in order to make money with my business without continuing to waste my time and everybody feel pity for me.

And God heard my pray and sent me the right community with the right mentors and coaches (Elite Marketing Pro).

I saw an add about how a Guy recruited over 1732 people in one month, into his MLM, all via this one simple strategy, attraction marketing.

He made some bold promises, that once I understood this concept, I would never have to chase people again. I would never have to call a lead again and people would be knocking on my door to join me in my business.

I couldn’t believe a word, but I wasn’t in the position of not checking the information.

To this day, I am thankful for my curiosity and desire to keep going.

I stayed up all night studying what attraction marketing was and is today from a ebook that I had bought for ONLY $47. It was the best $47 spent in the last 5 years.

After reading the book, I discovered that behind this information is a community with network marketers and internet marketers and also that I have 3 FREE coaching calls that will help me to implement this concept into my business.

So I established my free first call with skepticism and in the same time with big hopes …

Keeping short I went through all these free coaching modules and calls, I made all my homework.

Everything was new and overwhelming for me: how to create a fan page on Facebook and why I should have one, how to start generate traffic on the internet in order to generate leads (prospects), blogging, how to attract instead of prospect, lots of new concepts and terms, etc…

But EMP has courses, articles, tutorials and technical guidance step by step so I managed to generate my first leads (prospects) online without even having to talk to them …

Now before I explain how this works for me, I just want to share with you what ‘attraction marketing’ is NOT!

Attraction marketing is not spamming people on social media with private messages and posting your sign up link on people’s News Feed. I did it, it’s a crap and if you’re currently doing that, please STOP!

I can’t tell you how many folks in network marketing think they are doing ‘attraction marketing’ or Internet marketing, by sending dozens or hundreds of private messages to strangers per day.

No!

In fact, ‘attraction marketing’ is a completely passive activity (i.e. you aren’t messaging anyone) where people actually send YOU their contact information, so they can learn more about your product or opportunity.

In some cases, it’s your opportunity and in other cases, it’s a product.

But here’s the deal, just because someone shows an interest in your business, doesn’t mean you’re going to sponsor them or want to sponsor them. It means that they need to demonstrate that they are a good fit your business and this is done using something we call in the online world a ‘funnel.’

A ‘funnel’ consists of a series of short steps, which is designed to replace the 1-on-1 interaction you would normally have with a prospect to qualify them.

The problem with doing it offline is that, if you are ‘qualifying’ people, you better be a person who can command a certain level of respect.

If you are already a great leader, who is confident, well spoken and successful in life, you’re off to a great start and will likely have good success.

But…

If You are Broke, Shy & Scared… You’re Pretty Much Screwed Building Offline

Online, it’s a whole different situation because when a prospect requests information from you about a product or opportunity, you already have posture. They came to you and have already told you they are interested in what you have.

Heck, they are probably super impressed by the fact that they found you online and probably want to know how you did it too!

I generate hundreds of prospects every month for my business, yet only a fraction of them qualify to be leaders in my business.

The majority actually become my customers, which is awesome, because they pay for my ad costs and overhead.

So the reasons I use Attraction Marketing instead of actively chasing prospects are:

through Attraction Marketing you provide value, education and by doing this people will start knowing you, trusting you, liking you and you will never have to chase them anymore. They will follow you and buy from you without having to pitch anything to anyone.
is a passively activity, you generate hundreds, thousands of prospects without sending them even one message or making any call.
you don’t waste time, energy and money with persons that are not interested in what you have to offer
with active prospecting you send one message at a time, with attraction marketing you can touch thousands of people all over the world with only one click
no rejections
no late night meetings
you earn money even though they join your business or not

If you want a breakdown on how you can setup your own ‘attraction marketing funnel,’ I put together a free 10-day Attraction Marketing Bootcamp, which you can access right here.

More and more top earners are taking advantage of ‘attraction marketing.’

Many top networkers already have a massive online presence.

And you know how the saying goes…

“If you want something, find someone who has what you want, do what they do and you’ll get what they got”.

To your freedom,
