			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I few weeks ago I announced that <a href="http://www.adam-holland.com/blog/2010/05/17/mlm-launch-formula-bonus-jonathan-budd-and-mark-hoverson-have-done-it-again/" target="_blank">I&#8217;m giving away over $1481 in bonuses</a> to the people that get the MLM Launch Formula through <a href="http://mlmlaunchformula.com/?a=718131" target="_blank">my affiliate link</a>.</p>
<p>Well I&#8217;m not stopping there. <img src='http://www.adam-holland.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<h2 align="center">I&#8217;m going to show you how you can get Jonathan Budd and Mark Hoverson to &#8220;pay&#8221; for your Traffic Geyser account for 6 months.</h2>
<p>If you&#8217;re not familiar with Traffic Geyser, you can go to their website but it&#8217;s not even available right now.  They have a Main Street Marketing program that goes for $1997 per year, and even that&#8217;s closed.  (That program teaches its students how to sell internet marketing services to local businesses for thousands of dollars &#8211; it&#8217;s REALLY sweet and is worth the price just for the website builder that&#8217;s in the back office.. but that&#8217;s besides the point.)</p>
<p>TG basically syndicates your content&#8230; times a billion&#8230; haha.  Okay, take a video.  Upload it to TG.  It sends it out to all of the video sharing sites, posts it to your blog(s), rips out the audio and submits that to podcast directories, and then bookmarks all of it.  It&#8217;s INSANE.</p>
<p>Why I&#8217;m telling you about it is I&#8217;m going to give the first 5 people that get the MLM Launch Formula through my affiliate link access to their own subaccounts on my Traffic Geyser account for SIX MONTHS.  This is a REAL $1000 value and is not to be taken lightly.</p>
<p>AND I&#8217;m going to be throwing in even MORE bonuses.  The previously announced bonuses as well as the new ones are listed below:</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>NEW</strong>: First 2 people get 1 hour of 1-on-1 coaching with me personally – <strong>$500 value &#8211; <em>SOLD OUT!!</em></strong></li>
<li><strong>NEW</strong>: First 5 people get 6 months access to my Traffic Geyser/Main Street Marketing account – <strong>$997 value -<em> SOLD OUT!!</em></strong></li>
<li><strong>NEW</strong>: First 10 people get my Explode My Business Mastermind Marketing course – <strong>$247 value &#8211; <em>I&#8217;m Extending This Bonus To Everyone!</em></strong></li>
<li><strong>NEW</strong>: First 20 people get the &#8220;magic buy button&#8221; code and html template for their own video sales letter! &#8211;  <strong>$197 value</strong></li>
<li>4 Part FREE TRAFFIC Video Series – my covert techniques to steal free traffic from Google – <strong>$297 value</strong></li>
<li>4 Part LIVE WEBINAR Series – after June 9th I’ll be doing a 4 part webinar series to complement what is in the mlm launch formula, and add on my own opinions, commentary, and strategies – <strong>$297 value</strong></li>
<li>BEHIND-THE-SCENES: The Actual Recorded Webinars That Have Made Me 5 figures EACH – <strong>$497 value</strong></li>
<li>Psychology of the Sale: How To Get Your Prospect To Foam At The Mouth For What You’re Offering – <strong>$197 value</strong></li>
<li>OPTIONAL: first 2 months of my coaching club for $1. – <strong>$199.98 value</strong></li>
</ol>
<h2 align="center">This is up to $3400 in bonuses when you buy a freakin&#8217; $297 course! OMG!!  I&#8217;m NUTS!</h2>
<p>IMPORTANT!  If it&#8217;s not confirmed that you bought through <a href="http://mlmlaunchformula.com/?a=718131" target="_blank"><strong>my affiliate link</strong></a>, you get NO bonuses.  None of this &#8220;I thought I bought it through your link&#8221; BS.  Here&#8217;s how to ensure you get these bonuses:</p>
<ul>
<li>Clear your browser&#8217;s cookies.  If you don&#8217;t know how to do this, GOOGLE IT <img src='http://www.adam-holland.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </li>
<li><a href="http://mlmlaunchformula.com/?a=718131" target="_blank">Use my affiliate link!</a></li>
<li>Use a BRAND NEW EMAIL when you optin!</li>
<li>forward your receipt to support (at) explode-my-business.com</li>
<p> when you&#8217;re purchase is complete!</li>
</ul>
<p>Let me know if you have any questions and I look forward you see you all DOMINATE your company using the launch formula.</p>
<p>Rock on!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Okay LiveSmart 360 reps &#8211; before you go and grab your bats and barbed wire &#8211; this is NOT an attack on your company.  And for those of you that found this site because you were researching LockYourSpot.com &#8211; I&#8217;ll do my best to give you a fair representation, but understand this is MY opinion.  You&#8217;re free to leave yours in the comments <img src='http://www.adam-holland.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Okay, so here&#8217;s the deal and why I&#8217;ve got a little chip on my shoulder about this &#8220;new company launch&#8221;.</p>
<h2 align="center">Why Most Will Fail With The LockYourSpot Opportunity</h2>
<p>Yes, I love the network marketing industry.  It&#8217;s given me the opportunity to be a stay-at-home dad, pay off a bunch of debt, and start living my life on MY terms.  But one of the BIG downsides to mlm is how some companies and/or mlm teams feel that they need to really HYPE people up on their business in order to sponsor them.</p>
<p>What I mean is this: when I first came across the site, I looked high and low for a detailed comp plan.  Sure there&#8217;s a BMW bonus and &#8216;million dollar match&#8217; bonus, but <b>what the heck do you make <em>day one</em></b>???  I understand that it&#8217;s a binary compensation plan (2 teams, a &#8220;left leg&#8221; and a &#8220;right leg&#8221;), but the website is kinda vague as per the payouts.  It says that for every 240 on the larger leg and 120 on the smaller leg (360 total &#8211; cute, it fits the company name&#8230; hehe) it will pay out $20.</p>
<p>So if I&#8217;ve got a business that&#8217;s got 36,000 (24,000 in one leg, and 12,000 in the other) I&#8217;m making a whopping $2k??  Seriously?</p>
<p>No offense, but mlm comp plans SUCK.  ( :: me dodging the thrown tomatoes and garbage :: )</p>
<p>I did NOT write this post with the intention of doing a &#8220;my company is better than yours&#8221; but I can produce $6k in business with my company and make $2k.  It&#8217;s called GPT, not MLM.  (Don&#8217;t get too ticked off when you read <a href="http://oneyearplan.net/revolutionprofits/?site=CoffeeHouseLetterPro?t=360blogpost" target="_blank">this report</a> btw&#8230;)</p>
<p>Just go to that above report and that will save me from ranting about low paying mlm comp plans on this blog &#8211; thanks! <img src='http://www.adam-holland.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>But, seriously &#8211; if most of the site is &#8220;Look at our lifestyle! Aren&#8217;t we cool?  Isn&#8217;t this the best mlm ever!?&#8221;&#8230; RUN.  Anyone can sell lifestyle &#8211; especially if they already had a big mlm organization that was made YEARS before this launch, but I&#8217;ll get to that in a few moments.</p>
<p>Okay, moving on&#8230;</p>
<h2 align="center">Big Red Flag: &#8220;Secure Your Spot&#8221;</h2>
<p>Having different options to get started at different levels is a GOOD IDEA.  This allows the more serious (and well funded) entrepreneurs to get started at a higher level and it allows the reps that sponsor them to make more money as well.  Good.</p>
<p>Then you&#8217;ve got more affordable options for those on a budget.  Also good.</p>
<p>But then they throw in the &#8220;Secure Your Spot For Only $29.99&#8243;.  Are you kidding me?</p>
<p>Just follow me here for a second.  When Mercedes charges $50k for a car, they are going to attract a certain kind of customer&#8230;  a high end one.</p>
<p>Just like Starbucks attracts a certain clientele, or Armani attracts a certain clientele&#8230;  so does Walmart and so does McDonalds.</p>
<p>The kind of person you attract when you offer a &#8220;lock your spot&#8221; position is NOT GOOD.  It&#8217;s the lazy, non-committed, broke, skeptics that won&#8217;t make a stinking DIME when they get started anyway.  But what good does this do?  It makes the main company another $29.99 per rep for NOTHING.  You get a username for that fee, that&#8217;s IT.</p>
<p>Okay, they&#8217;re going to say&#8230; &#8220;well, you get a website&#8221;.. or something along those lines to defend the cost.  Well, I&#8217;m sorry to tell you that web hosting is around $10/mo&#8230; and that goes for unlimited DOMAIN NAMES.  I&#8217;ve got 2 different hosting accounts and about 80 domain names registered, all spread between 6 different servers.  And I&#8217;m only at $45/mo for ALL of that.</p>
<p>Coming from a semi-computer-nerd, HOSTING IS CHEAP! <img src='http://www.adam-holland.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Unfortunately mlm companies like to do this so they can make money from their replicated websites, in addition to their products.  Not a big deal, but for $49/mo you could get a totally customizable site through the <a href="http://www.explode-my-business.com/mastermind.html" target="_blank">7 Figure Networker program</a>.  It will be more personalized to YOU, brand YOU to your prospect, and also allow you to use your own <a href="http://revolutionprofits.com/members/aweber/" target="_blank">autoresponder</a>.</p>
<p>(Don&#8217;t want to get into it right now, but you absolutely NEED to build a list of prospects and potential clients.  It is a long term asset that will pay you over and over again, even if no one gets on your team.  I just can&#8217;t imagine building a business anymore without one..)</p>
<p>So, back to the point at hand: don&#8217;t fall for a &#8220;get in on the ground level, new mlm prelaunch opportunity&#8221; crap.  I get pitched at least once per week on some &#8220;new deal&#8221;.</p>
<p>Which leads me to my next point:</p>
<h2 align="center">Don&#8217;t Call It The Biggest New Company Launch If It&#8217;s Not &#8216;Really&#8217; A New Company</h2>
<p>If you&#8217;re not familiar with Cyberwize, don&#8217;t worry about it &#8211; I&#8217;m not either.  But what I did notice was that the CEO of Cyberwize &#8211; Mark McCool &#8211; is also the CEO of LiveSmart 360.  Hmmm..</p>
<p>I had heard about Cyberwize before, so I went to cyberwize.com to do some research about it and guess what?  It redirected me to Lock Your Spot .com!</p>
<p>Hmmm.. So much for &#8220;new opportunity&#8221;, huh Mark?</p>
<p><strong>Now &#8211; before I let the cat outta the bag on this one, I understand where Mark is coming from here!</strong></p>
<ol>
<li>In order to have a long-term mlm company, you need to have new products coming out to keep people excited about the &#8220;new stuff&#8221; coming out in their business.</li>
<li>If you want to get alot of prelaunch buzz (aka HYPE), you use new websites and new names for old products &#8211; typically&#8230;</li>
</ol>
<p>But in this case Mark decided to go &#8220;Quixtar&#8221; on us&#8230;</p>
<p>Back in 1999, <a href="http://explode-my-business.com/blog/mlm-company-reviews/amway-quixtar-review/" target="_blank">Amway</a> got sick and tired of the dark cloud of controversy following them around all the time.  Sure, their international business has been pretty booming, but their domestic business here in North America has been stagnant for YEARS.</p>
<p>They wanted to come up with a new concept, rebrand themselves, and start anew.</p>
<p>Quixtar was born.  They changed the name, moved to an &#8220;internet sales portal&#8221; model, and transferred all of the Amway reps to Quixtar IBOs.</p>
<p>Then, around 10 years after the switch they SWITCHED BACK TO AMWAY.  (Actually Amway Global, but it&#8217;s all the same to me..)</p>
<p>Why?  It didn&#8217;t really help business at all.  In fact, my old upline had a pretty decent sized organization &#8211; several hundred people in 5 platinum and up organizations.  He was very close to hitting the Diamond level.  Then they switched to Quixtar, his entire group quit, and he started again brand new after being in the business for 12 years.  (Crap, huh!?)  Don&#8217;t worry, he&#8217;s doing pretty well for himself now regardless.  Took him another 10 years,  but he finally went Diamond. <img src='http://www.adam-holland.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_surprised.gif' alt=':o' class='wp-smiley' /> P</p>
<p>So, to get back to the point here&#8230;</p>
<p>==> When I started in &#8220;Quixtar&#8221;, they had a really good pitch about the growth of the company.  I&#8217;m an engineer by degree, a salesperson and trainer by trade, and a marketer by occupation.. so I love facts and figures.</p>
<p>My upline had told me about how there&#8217;s only been 2 companies to do $500+ Million their first year online.  #1 was Amazon.com  (now a huge *bleeping* company) and #2 Quixtar.com.  They had used the credibility of Amazon to say that when they experience the same growth that Amazon.com had, WE will be able to share in the profits.</p>
<p>I liked the idea of that.</p>
<p>They just left out one small tidbit of information: that although it was Quixtar&#8217;s first year in business, most every Amway rep that wanted to continue pursuing a business with the company just switched their business over.</p>
<p>They essentially took their entire sales organization from one company to another company, both under the same umbrella.</p>
<p>So what am I getting at here?</p>
<p><strong>Don&#8217;t bring over 110,000 reps from one company to another and call it the &#8220;biggest and most successful mlm company pre-launch in history&#8221;.  Give me a freakin&#8217; break!<br />
</strong><br />
If the tv network ABC changed their name tomorrow to XYZ, what would you say if people were like &#8220;Wow!  XYZ just went from zero to a bagillion dollars overnight!  That company&#8217;s on the move, so buy your stock now and double your money by next week!&#8221;</p>
<p>C&#8217;mon, what would you say to that?  Obviously the company&#8217;s NOT on the move.  The just changed their name and just because the &#8220;new&#8221; stock went from 0 to $27 per share, doesn&#8217;t mean it&#8217;ll be $54 next week.</p>
<p>==> It&#8217;s the same thing w/ an mlm opportunity guys!</p>
<p>Now, again, don&#8217;t get me wrong here!  LiveSmart 360 could very well be a fantastic opportunity and have the most cutting edge products available in the industry.  But think hard to yourself if you&#8217;re just hyped up on the fact it&#8217;s &#8220;NEW&#8221; or &#8220;the comp plan&#8217;s the greatest thing in the world&#8221; or whatever kind of &#8220;fluff&#8221; you&#8217;ve been hearing&#8230;  or if you genuinely are in love with the company, the products, and your team.</p>
<p>Either way&#8230;</p>
<h2 align="center">No MLM Business Will Grow Without Leads</h2>
<p>If you&#8217;ve been in the industry for more than a month, chances are you&#8217;ve gone through your entire &#8216;warm list&#8217; of your family and friends.  You understand that if you&#8217;re not consistently building your own prospect list, your business will come to a screeching halt.</p>
<p>So, no matter if you&#8217;re promoting Live Smart 360 or any other mlm business, I *highly* suggest that you checkout the training I put together for you below.  It will show you how I create between 10-35 leads on a DAILY BASIS for my business on total autopilot..  <b>Fill out the form below!</b><br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Just got word that the guys are at it again.  Jonathan Budd and Mark Hoverson will announce to the world in the next week or so their next mastermind project: <strong><a href="http://mlmlaunchformula.com/?a=718131" target="_blank">MLM Launch Formula</a></strong>.<br />
What is it about?  What is an MLM Launch?  And why do we need a FORMULA?!?!<br />
<center><br />
<object width="400" height="224" ><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="movie" value="http://www.facebook.com/v/561076950306" /><embed src="http://www.facebook.com/v/561076950306" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="400" height="224"></embed></object><br />
</center><br />
First all of, you absolutely need to understand that this does NOT necessarily mean you can only use these tactics for the launch of a <em>new</em> company.  Of course you CAN, but I hope that if you&#8217;re reading this you&#8217;re not planning on jumping from company to company every 6 months to make a living.  Sure, you might be able to rack up a pretty penny in a short period of time, but you will NEVER build a long-term income being an &#8216;mlm company nomad&#8217;..</p>
<p>That being said, ONE of the goals here is to be able to use the MLM LAUNCH FORMULA to perpetually &#8216;relaunch&#8217; your mlm to your list and have a windfall of results over and over again.  This has several benefits:</p>
<ol>
<li>You can have the same mlm company LONG TERM and build your income without having to start over every 6 months because the &#8220;hype&#8221; of a new opportunity ran out.</li>
<li>You can have an explosion of profits every time that you launch and can leverage that influx of profits to scale your marketing even BIGGER!</li>
<li>You have a MASSIVE group -this could be 5 people or 50 people or MORE &#8211; <u>all starting at the SAME TIME</u>.</li>
</ol>
<p>Now, STOP and THINK for just a moment about that last phrase.</p>
<p>When you use the <strong><a href="http://mlmlaunchformula.com/?a=718131" target="_blank">MLM Launch Formula</a></strong> properly, you will have a large group of people all starting at the SAME point in their business.</p>
<p>Back in my old school mlm days you&#8217;d have to trickle in 2-4 new reps personally per month if you were lucky.  Even with <a href="http://explode-my-business.com/" target="_blank">newer online mlm techniques</a> you might be able to sponsor 10 per month&#8230;  But chances are it&#8217;s sporadic.  Someone gets started today, another couple in 2 weeks, and then 6 at the end of the month.  Now you&#8217;ve got 10 people that you&#8217;ve got to train who are all starting at different times.</p>
<p>Sure, this is a BIG reason why automation is so powerful&#8230; But in order to have a really successful team people still need direction through one-on-one coaching.  And when you&#8217;ve got 10 people per month coming into your business all at different times, and you start doing that for a few months or a few years, it becomes chaos.</p>
<p>That being said, there&#8217;s 2 parts of the MLM Launch Formula that are VITAL about the formula &#8211; that aren&#8217;t even IN the formula: what happens BEFORE the launch, and what happens AFTER the launch.  And I have a very specific strategy when it comes to BOTH.</p>
<p>So I decided I&#8217;ll offer up several sweet bonuses ONLY for those that get this product through my affiliate link.<br />
Bonuses will include:</p>
<ul>
<li>4 Part FREE TRAFFIC Video Series &#8211; my covert techniques to steal free traffic from Google &#8211; $297 value</li>
<li>4 Part LIVE WEBINAR Series &#8211; after June 9th I&#8217;ll be doing a 4 part webinar series to complement what is in the mlm launch formula, and add on my own opinions, commentary, and strategies &#8211; $297 value</li>
<li>BEHIND-THE-SCENES: The Actual Recorded Webinars That Have Made Me 5 figures EACH &#8211; $497 value</li>
<li>Psychology of the Sale: How To Get Your Prospect To Foam At The Mouth For What You&#8217;re Offering &#8211; $197 value</li>
<li>OPTIONAL: first 2 months of my <a href="http://revolutionprofits.com/coachingclub/" target="_blank">coaching club</a> for $1.  &#8211; $193 value</li>
<li>&#8230;possibly even MORE bonuses TBD&#8230;</li>
</ul>
<h2 align="center">Total Estimated Value of Bonuses: $1481</h2>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So at this point if you know who Mike Dillard is, hopefully you&#8217;ve found out about the upcoming Magnetic Sponsoring Inc launch of the &#8220;What&#8217;s Working Now Short Cut System&#8221;.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve only heard the smallest insider knowledge about this and who&#8217;s involved, but let me be the first to say it&#8217;s going to be a sigh of relief when people get their hands on this.  I can easily tell that from what Mike Dillard&#8217;s mentioned in his prelaunch notification video.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;ve been researching and studying internet marketing for a while, you&#8217;re probably on every guru&#8217;s list.  And you probably get about 100 emails per week about some new product launch, revolutionary new technique, or traffic-getting strategy.  Well, let me be the first to tell you &#8211; most of them are all rehashed stuff from 2 products before that one.  I know &#8211; I&#8217;ve bought most every one.</p>
<p>The thing that&#8217;s going to be different about this launch is that:</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>There&#8217;s not going to be any duplicate strategies in the back office.</strong>  This is only an assumption, but I&#8217;ve seen a bunch of Mike&#8217;s launches and the products don&#8217;t have a ton of filler and hog-wash.  And he&#8217;s not going to have 3 different leaders talk all about the SAME THING.  Highly unlikely.</li>
<li><strong>You&#8217;re going to be getting the &#8220;cliff&#8217;s notes&#8221; of the best marketing strategies&#8230;</strong>  All from the top earners.  All click-by-click, simple directions.  (Just like how I like to teach  <img src='http://www.adam-holland.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> .  This is why I&#8217;ve appreciated so many of <a href="http://explode-my-business.com/blog/mlm-leader-reviews/jonathan-budd-review/" target="_blank">Jonathan Budd</a>&#8217;s trainings&#8230; and this is also why my next course (The Personal Branding Blueprint) has 60+ tutorial videos.  Not just the &#8216;theory&#8217;.. the &#8216;implementation&#8217; too.</li>
<li><strong>All of the guru&#8217;s will be competing for your attention.</strong>  Not that I&#8217;m any sort of guru &#8211; I&#8217;m not &#8211; but if I was in the back office of that product I&#8217;d be sharing ALL of my best stuff.  I&#8217;d want to stand out as being the best high-value industry trainer in that project.  So, needless to say, my guess is all of the leaders will be giving their best stuff away.</li>
</ol>
<p>So, as of today (March 12th), Mike hasn&#8217;t told anyone the details yet.  We know it&#8217;s launching on the 22nd, but we don&#8217;t know if it&#8217;s going to be a $297 video training, a $997 marketing course, or a monthly continuity program.  *As I get these details, I&#8217;ll update this blog post.*</p>
<p>But one thing is for certain: when I get the details (and the affiliate info of course) I&#8217;m going to be coming up with a slew of bonuses for everyone who gets it through my affiliate link.</p>
<p>It could be my <a href="http://explode-my-business.com/embcourse.html" target="_blank">$247 Explode My Business Mastermind Marketing Course</a>, or an advanced copy of my Personal Branding Blueprint (150+ page ebook, 60+ tutorial videos, and other bonuses including interviews with Ryan Dunn, Mark Hoverson, and David King), or if this is Mike&#8217;s next &#8220;uber-project&#8221; I&#8217;d even give away my library of training products I&#8217;ve created.</p>
<p>All in all, this is going to be a REALLY cool launch.</p>
<p>Be sure to get on my list (optin to the right) or keep checking back for notice of the bonuses.</p>
<p>**Comment below on what you think of the idea of the product so far!!**</p>
<p>Yours In Success,</p>
<p>Adam Holland</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m not one to write long and drawn out reviews on the latest <a href="http://explode-my-business.com/blog/mlm-company-reviews/" target="_blank">network marketing companies</a>, so I&#8217;ll keep my review on Blastoff Network as brief as possible.</p>
<p>First, let me just say that this is NOTHING new!  Amway/Quixtar has had this same &#8220;universal online shopping mall with multi-level payouts&#8221; concept for a while.  Then other companies such as &#8220;My Power Mall&#8221; and &#8220;(crap there was another one, but I can&#8217;t remember..&#8221;) rolled out their versions.  It&#8217;s a great concept too: &#8220;If I&#8217;m going to spend the money anyway, might as well get paid a bonus back on it, right!?&#8221;</p>
<p>And then comes the realization: if you&#8217;re going to purchase from the 3rd party story (Best Buy, Target, etc) through the shopping &#8220;gateway&#8221; (in this case Blastoff) there isn&#8217;t going to be much of a margin that you save.  Usually payouts to &#8220;regular&#8221; online affiliates is 1-3%.  Not bad, better than nothing right?!  But now split that with 20 people in a downline?? Everyone&#8217;s fighting over 2 cents!?</p>
<p>Cutting to the chase &#8211; buying stuff from the 3rd party companies is NOT worth it.  Instead of having the product when you need it (NOW), you&#8217;re paying extra for shipping (some of the time it&#8217;ll be free) only to get 2 cents back on the product.  THAT is a waste.</p>
<p>Most companies that work this way have to have their own product line (Amway&#8217;s energy drinks, toilet paper, soap, laundry detergent, etc&#8230;) with a bigger profit margin so you can make more money.  Now instead of cutting up 1-3% into small little bits, you&#8217;ve got more like 10-30% to work with &#8211; depending on the company/product/etc.  But now you&#8217;ve got to get people to stop buying Crest and start buying &#8220;Blastoff toothpaste&#8221; or whatever.  Again, good concept &#8211; but it&#8217;s not as easy as they describe.</p>
<p>The worst thing with these companies is you need to recruit a small country in order to make any REAL money with it.  And it takes you between 5-20 years to do it ( :: cough -JOB- cough:: ).</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t get me wrong: I&#8217;m NOT against MLM!  I&#8217;m not against Blastoff or Amway or whatever company.  But you&#8217;ve got to understand that the fortunes are being made in more Direct Sales (or what many people call &#8220;GPT: Get Paid Today&#8221;)-type comp plans where you&#8217;re paid MUCH more early on in your business.</p>
<p>Example: when someone joins <a href="http://grnwealthplan.com" target="_blank">my primary business opportunity</a>, I get paid $1000.  And when they sponsor someone I get paid $1000.  Do the math.  How many people do I need to sponsor to make $5k/mo, and how big does your mlm business need to be to make that?  Usually it&#8217;s the difference between 5 people and 150 people.  Make sense?</p>
<p>Either way, I&#8217;m not here to sell you on a business &#8211; Blastoff Network or otherwise.  What you 100% need to realize is that without LEADS, your mlm business is going nowhere.</p>
<p>To find out how I&#8217;ve sponsored as many as 81 people in 4 months and made over $22k in a single month &#8211; all on AUTOPILOT &#8211; check out my free training resource: <a href="http://explode-my-business.com" target="_blank">Explode My Business FREE 7 Day Bootcamp</a>.  Enjoy!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Multi-level Marketing (MLM) as an industry has been debated over for several decades now.  Some say MLM sucks, some say mlm is a scheme.  Others say it&#8217;s a great way for the average Joe to make money&#8230;</p>
<p>And we could go over all of the stats about how 98%-99% of all people that signup in an MLM will never make money.  We could talk about the Amway tools ripoff or how Monavie sells overpriced bottles of juice (neither of these things are my opinion, by the way&#8230; It&#8217;s just the crap all over the internet that gets debated).</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s put all of that stuff to the side for a moment and hone in on this one personal experience of mine that totally sums up MY &#8220;truth about MLM&#8221;&#8230;  I&#8217;m talking about the secret that all of the big pins and heavy hitters won&#8217;t talk about.</p>
<p>One of my mentors mentioned this to me as to why he STOPPED growing his MLM business all together and started focusing on Direct Sales/GPT/Get-Paid-Today opportunities and passive income streams.</p>
<p>He said it was because he got tired of &#8220;babysitting adult children&#8221;.</p>
<p>Woah!  That phrase hit me upside the head like a two-by-four.  Babysitting adult children?</p>
<p>But he was right.  You see, I didn&#8217;t believe him until I started growing a downline of several hundred people.  Instead of spending most of your time golfing and on the beach like they show you in the lifestyle videos, you&#8217;re spending 8-10 hours a day coaching people, doing 3-way calls, training webinars, creating your own systems, and MANAGING all of it.  It just becomes a better paying J-O-B, and you get the opportunity to call yourself a &#8220;business owner&#8221;&#8230;  woopidy-doo!</p>
<p>You see, when the &#8220;price of entry&#8221; into your business is $50-$200, you&#8217;re going to sponsor a BUNCH of broke people with broke mentalities.  That&#8217;s not to say you&#8217;ll get some sharp people too.  But MLMs stay in business not because of the 100 leaders buying the products.  The stay in business off of the thousands of SHEEP attending their hotel meetings, quarterly functions, and team meetings.  Yea, I said it: SHEEP.</p>
<p>I know &#8211; I was one of them.</p>
<p>I was herded around for YEARS because I really didn&#8217;t have the GUTS to take the actions to build my business.  See, I&#8217;m honest  <img src='http://www.adam-holland.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' />     I was an &#8220;adult child&#8221;.  A big baby.</p>
<p>The REAL problem, though, was that I just had no want to take those actions.  I didn&#8217;t want to face that REJECTION that I got when I tried to get a phone number from someone I had just met at the mall so I could pitch them on my business later.  I wasted SOOO much time &#8220;pretending&#8221; to build my business because I just hated talking to total strangers and get them excited about my business opportunity.  Especially because they just weren&#8217;t the people I should have been talking to anyways.</p>
<p><b>Then, something happened.  <a href="http://www.explode-my-business.com/">I came across some information that totally changed my life</a>.</b></p>
<p>I figured out how people were actually getting calls from people that they had never met, and these people were BEGGING to become part of a business opportunity.</p>
<p>Yep, instead of wasting time at the malls you can actually attract people TO YOU.</p>
<p>In the last few months alone, I&#8217;ve been able to create over 700 leads for my business without leaving my house.  In addition to that, my leads have PAID ME to be my leads!  I&#8217;ve grown my business and created over $20,000 in profits over the past 2 months.  This is WAY different than MLM.</p>
<p>To see my recruiting secrets go to <a href="http://www.explode-my-business.com">Explode-My-Business.com</a> &#8230; just be careful &#8211; you may make a TON of money and have to go tell your upline that &#8220;MLM sucks&#8221;&#8230;  <img src='http://www.adam-holland.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Excuse me, but what the hell?  When I got registered with Success University it was because I valued the product and appreciated the concept of their business plan.</p>
<p>And now SU has &#8220;merged&#8221; with World Ventures?  Now, it seems by Matt Morris&#8217; letter to the company that it seems like SU was being bought out by World Ventures.  They&#8217;re &#8220;merging&#8221; the compensation plans, and everyone who started with SU won&#8217;t see any additional monthly fees.</p>
<p>So I guess there&#8217;s one plus&#8230;  And making more money is certainly a plus&#8230; HOWEVER&#8230;</p>
<p>Matt Morris states in his letter that the travel industry is the LARGEST industry in the world.  Well, Matt I totally agree with you&#8230;  But World Ventures may not have been the best company to choose.</p>
<p>You see, I shared Matt&#8217;s same excitement for the travel industry.  I looked over several companies and decided which one to go with.  And it was NOT World Ventures.  Sorry.  And definitely NOT YTB either.</p>
<p>(Good thing because YTB&#8217;s in some legal trouble in California w/ the Attorney General right now.. hmmm.)</p>
<p>So, now the company I thought I was promoting as a personal development company is losing the branding I was associating myself with, and I&#8217;d be in direct competition with my <a href="http://www.grnwealthplan.com/">Global Resorts Network</a> business.</p>
<p>This may be good news for SU reps, but not really good news for me..</p>
<p>Thoughts?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m an avid internet marketer, and I&#8217;ve seen probably 100 &#8220;programs&#8221; in the past year&#8230;  And when I saw the 1-2-3 Power System I simply passed right on over it and &#8220;threw it on the pile&#8221; of the other home based business opportunities I&#8217;d checked out.</p>
<p>And boy did that come back to bite me in the (you know what)!</p>
<p>I started looking in to the system more when I heard about the direct mail training.  You see, I know pretty much all there is to know when it comes to internet marketing &#8211; and what I don&#8217;t know I can just pay someone else to do for me, no big deal.  (Heck &#8211; I even have my own <a href="http://www.explode-my-business.com/">online network marketing bootcamp</a> and course for God&#8217;s sake!)</p>
<p>But when it comes to offline marketing, I&#8217;m a clean slate.</p>
<p>Then I started getting feedback from other people on their postcard mailing campaigns.  Put simply, they&#8217;re basically doubling whatever they spend on their ads.  You spend $200 on postcards, you&#8217;ll get $400 back in orders.  You spend $2000, you&#8217;ll get back $4000.  Of course, like with any marketing, there are no guarantees&#8230;  Could me more, could be a bit less.  But hearing from several sources, they&#8217;ve all never lost money on their direct mail ads.  Period.</p>
<p>Hmmm.  I was intrigued.</p>
<p>So, I bought the system.  I should be getting it in the mail in the next week or so.  When I do, I&#8217;ll give you more detailing info on what&#8217;s included.</p>
<p>In the meantime, I logged in to the back office to check out more info on direct mail and other marketing techniques their team is using.  And that&#8217;s when I noticed Brad Weinman&#8217;s name.  Now, I don&#8217;t know if this is specific to just his team (which I&#8217;m sure I&#8217;m on if I got access) or the entire 1-2-3 Power System Team&#8230; but Brad knows his stuff.</p>
<p>He&#8217;s been an internet marketer and &#8220;attraction marketing&#8221; guru for quite a while.  I trust his choice in programs, so I know I picked a good one.</p>
<p>As I start my own marketing, I&#8217;ll bring you up to date on what works&#8230; what doesn&#8217;t&#8230; And what&#8217;s going on behind the scenes with the 1-2-3 Power System.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you&#8217;re looking for a brutally honest review of Britt World Wide (BWW) (which is an Amway Global/Quixtar Training System) I made a video review and posted it on Youtube.</p>
<p align="center"><a href="http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=FEFA387E6BE8681E" target="_blank"><strong>Britt World Wide Review</strong></a></p>
<p>The video was supposed to be 15-20 minutes and separated out into 2 separate videos&#8230;  About 45 minutes later, I had realized that I had given you a totally open and honest idea of what kind of money you can spend trying to build an Amway business and why so many people lose money in network marketing in general.To give some comparative analysis, I compared BWW to <a href="http://revolutionprofits.successuniversity.com" target="_blank">Success University</a> &#8211; which is an online personal development program comparative to what BWW is &#8216;trying&#8217; to accomplish.</p>
<p>Enjoy!</p>
