To: Frustrated Biz-Opp Marketers

From: Mike Forbs

2.

Are you feeling bamboozled by, yet another “autopilot” money program that isn’t spitting out money at all?

4.

Are you tired of your biz op guru’s hustle-hard advice… because you know that no amount of effort is going to get you anywhere?

6.

Finally, are you beginning to suspect that the mantra of “duplication” and keeping the right “mindset” is all total bullshit?

& It might even prevent you from making

The next big mistake of your life! 

Have you ever stopped to wonder - now that it’s the year 2022 - why internet marketers are still singing the same ol’ song about leveraging “the power of the internet;” especially when the dotcom bubble ended well over a decade ago?

It was the year 2007 (or 8) when I first heard that noise…

That’s when I transitioned my exhausting MLM business away from Starbucks and hotel meetings and moved it over to world-wide-web, back when Myspace.com was the #1 social network in the world.

It’s been a long time since. Now the “Metaverse” is well underway. Yet, somehow,  the biz op crowd is still nowhere close to leveraging the power of the glorified “internet” to its full potential.

In fact, they’re not even close to leveraging 20%.

So, for these copy-paste mini gurus still acting as though the internet is some magical place that will make all your money dreams come true, I have absolutely no idea what they’re smokin’ - nor do I want any.

But here’s one thing I KNOW with absolute certainty:

I’ve seen biz-op marketers hyping and cheerleading for a dozen “done-for-you” marketing systems for years, many of which are now approaching the age of retirement, and the so-called “heavy-hitters” at the top of the leaderboards are barely breaking a Walmart manager’s salary.

Just the other day, I watched a sweet ol’ lady on YouTube showcasing the back-office dashboard for what has got to be her 20th autopilot money program within the last 8 months.

I just couldn’t help but laugh.

I ask myself, everytime…

1.) What happened to the last proven/done-for-you method that was so life changing?

2.) What is this culture of opportunity junkies promoting a dozen or more “autopilot” income promises and adding new ones to their collection every 9 to 16 months?

3.) Shouldn’t one be enough to make you a full-time income, considering that each and every one of those income opportunities features a sales presentation with a big money chart?

But I think you and I both know the answer to that question!

If you don’t, here’s a funny meme I made on imgflip.com that tells the whole story:

2.

 Forget about your LinkedIn connections and Facebook friends list.

4.

 Suspend your Google or Facebook Ad accounts.

6.

 Put away your junk “automation” tools that’s doing absolutely nothing but wasting your time and money.

We’re gonna go away on a little retreat; to the rooftop lounge atop the Benjamin Hotel in Midtown, New York; and get you a real bona fide marketing education.

By the time we’re done, you’ll have the capacity to write yourself a BORING monthly check for $37,000 before you set your eyes on a multi-million-dollar objective; when you decide you want to own a yacht and live in a 4-bedroom, 3-bath penthouse in downtown Miami, Florida.

Let’s start with subject #1 on the syllabus:

7 Deadly MLM Lies
That Might be Keeping You
Light Years Away from a Full-Time Passive Income

You see, from the very instant you pull out your credit card to join any MLM or internet franchise, you’re doomed to fail - right from the start.

No, there’s no conspiracy. No sinister plot to keep you poor and ignorant in our industry, as far as I know… The problem, however, remains…

All The Glitz & Glamor About ‘Being Your Own Boss’ In The Digital Marketing Age is Nothing But Media Hype… And It’s Overshadowing Reality! 

This poses a great big danger to your bank account, as newbie entrepreneurs fall victim to media hype and lose out on fortunes before they ever get a reality ‘check.’

Truth of the matter is this:

The internet or digital media; all the marketing systems, tools, browser extensions, funnels, and SEO tricks; is doing absolutely nothing for well over 98% of online direct sellers.

All they ever do on the internet is buy up every automated junk promising to solve their money problems while they scamper around fishing for leads out of every dingy website peddling “free-and-easy” traffic.

They are not entrepreneurs. They are consumers.

As a matter of fact, if you read my Free Newsletter, you’ll discover that the overwhelming majority of digital direct sellers are actually victims of GRPs (Get Rich Promises) selling them bigger and better “done-for-you” shovels while they waste away in the opportunity mines digging for potential gold.

In other words…

There are thousands of internet marketers wielding every apparatus for traffic and leads to feed to their automated get-rich promises, yet, and still, they remain light-years away from a better lifestyle.

Stings, Doesn’t It?

I know! I’ve been there.

I had gone through 12 MLMs, half of which were illegal copy-paste cash gifting programs. I started several make-money blogs before I had my agonizing rude awakening:

Only a handful of people will ever experience breakthrough results while the majority can never hope to achieve a single $1K commission check, even if they were given a full year to do it… before a mobster fires a bullet into their kidnapped child’s head.

(Graphic, I know! I’ve just finished watching “Dexter: Cold Blood,” and now I’m in the middle of “Ozark.” Ruth’s cousin was just murdered in an extremely horrific way.)

I Shit You Not!

The direct selling industry is not all sunshine and rainbows. In fact, it’s far from it.

It’s the wild, wild west. Anyone will say, do, and sell you anything to take your lot.

Internet biz ops, particularly, are in the business of profiting - not from the selling of business education and marketing tools, but from taking of the hopes and dreams of society’s most desperate and then repackaging it for sale for $300 (or more) + the admin fee.

The idea that you’re selling “digital products” is complete bullshit because the so-called “marketing education” is absolute junk. There’s no refund policy. Results are far from typical, they say. And the testimonials are probably the Ponzi scheming guru’s get-rich buddies from earlier ponzi systems. So, good luck! You’re on your own.

Just find yourself another sucker foolish enough to pay you $300 for your hot air franchise.

Wake Up!

I know this might be a bit unsettling, but this should serve as a clue as to why the majority of biz opp marketers think themselves unlucky, as they have been prayed upon by parasitic biz opps targeting inexperienced people with no real business and education.

And because they have no experience or education in business and marketing, they are easily fooled by marketing and entrepreneurial buzzwords.

Now, the big brand network marketing industry, however legitimate, has a booby trap far greater than that of your illegal copy-paste cash gifting programs.

Make No Mistake!

None of this is to say that I don’t love direct selling.

On the contrary, I’m quite obsessed!

Direct sales remains my all time favorite enterprise and no one can tell me different.

I’m merely highlighting the common and severely detrimental blunders that kill off millions of beginner direct sales entrepreneurs every year, as these people wind up going back to a life that they absolutely hate and chalk the MLM industry as a gamble or a game of luck.

So if you happen to be a leader and you want a downline of highly effective marketers who are not merely relying on faith, but are receiving positive, predictable results, then it’s in your best interest to share this material.

Now, I’m not done with my brutal honesty. Not even close! In fact, expect it to get even worse.

I suggest you don’t read any further if you have any heart problems.

Brutal Honesty Continued:

Let me tell you something else nobody likes to hear…

And if what I say next makes you squeamish, I invite you to click on the “X” at the top/right corner of this window and exit.

I’m only talking to the people who want to make lots of money very quickly - without wasting any more precious time, especially if you’re well past your 30s and desperately need to get your life together, yesterday!

The #1 skill in any direct sales business is SELLING! No “buts” about it.

If you want duplication to work, salesmanship is your biggest priority. Otherwise, all you’ll ever duplicate is incoherent garbage and crossing your fingers, hoping your downline doesn’t quit.

Sorry to break it to you, Yoga Yazmin & Teddybear Tom, but you’re never going to get rich sharing your passion for pinky toe creams that somehow whitens your teeth!

“...If You Want To Be RICH, Either You OWN SOMETHING… Or SELL SOMETHING.” 

- Tim Sales

It’s all completely ass-backwards!

That’s why the average rep has absolutely no chance at wealth following conventional MLM strategies (which, for reasons beyond me, is now mistaken for “Attraction” marketing in the online space).

Yes, indeed, it’s a brave new world for newbie direct sellers,

but have no fear…

You’re learning, right now, what direct selling renegades - the biggest losers in MLM with every disadvantage - have done to level the playing field, and become ridiculously wealthy overnight.

In other words,

How to “Get Rich Quick” And Be An Overnight Direct Sales Superstar

Contrary to the popular opinion of gurus (who are just being political and afraid of the FTC), there IS such a thing as a “get-rich-quick.”

No, I’m not talking about selling illegal narcotics.

To get rich, you need a set of specialized skills and knowledge.

The problem, however, is that it can take most people a quarter of a lifetime to obtain.

But…

What if I told you that, said “specialized skills, knowledge, and experience” were bottled up and made into a simple recipe that anyone can master over the next 45 days if they put it into practice?

What if I told you that, that recipe does exist and up until now, it’s only passed around to a tiny group of people - a secret society, if you will?

What if I told you that outsiders had to pay as much as $50,000 out of pocket (in today’s money) just for a 1-hour consultation at a remote location?

What if I told you that only a handful of network marketers, even famed internet gurus - before they were famous -, wore baseball caps, sunglasses, and hoodies - just to keep a low profile - as they copied and pasted this secret recipe, which almost immediately exploded their personal brands and money?

What if I told you that that recipe remains hidden until this very day, as no educational institution will ever teach you this?

“If it’s so profitable, why wouldn’t they teach this in business and marketing school?”

There’s two reasons for that!

For starters, the advertising industry makes billions of dollars from ignorant marketing professionals who gamble a company’s money away on “brand awareness,” which has no direct correlation to sales.

Your big-brand marketing professionals are trained to think that exposure, brand awareness, creativity, and ads that entertain brings customers to the door.

It’s not their fault. We’ve all grown up watching ridiculous tv commercials with puns, cheeky slogans, comedy, celebrity cameos.

Bad marketing and advertising is everywhere! In fact, ads are terrible by default.

The stuff that makes people abandon present emergencies to take action on a sweet hot deal are overlooked. It’s the smallest details that we assume are insignificant, when in fact they are the most important, but, again, we’re too distracted by the loud gimmicks; graphics, pretty pictures, and a stupid slogan or catchphrase.

Marketing professionals and creatives are only on the lookout for a bigger, better, and louder portfolio. They don’t know how to make advertising dollars count!

Advertising agencies, much like your ponzi-scheming charlatans selling “done-for-you” junk, can take money from clients without being held accountable for NOT delivering results.

That said, it’s not just MLM that is scared to death about these secrets. Even big brand advertising has everything to lose if these secrets ever become mainstream.

The second reason why this is not being taught:

It has the power to turn front porch lemonade stands into empires of wealth. It has the power to turn common everyday people into overnight money tycoons the minute they learn how to invest a single $1 bill.

This is bad for elites of the world who don’t want independent people making their own money in the coming age of A.I. and the One World Government.

And so it remains…

These secrets remain underground, and for many of these people you’re going to find out about, they had to actively seek it out and were only lucky enough to stumble upon a book or a name.

Most people “in the know” were only lucky enough - by the good graces of God - to have stumbled upon a name, a letter, or a dusty old $5 book that most people never think to read… because it was printed in the 1900s.

“The greater the technology, the dummer society becomes.”

The reason why these secrets are so potent, because unlike every other whimsical theory about marketing and advertising, this one is entirely centered on human psychology and the buying brain.

• Jealousy

• Prospect of gain and a fear of loss

• Gaining an advantage over competition

• Greed

• Recognition

• To be the envy amongst colleagues and peers

This secret indulges people’s most selfish, carnal desires and urges. There sanity is completely gone as they attempt a financial suicide by blowing away their savings on the most useless of objects.

Just imagine going out for groceries and coming back with a kayak:

How does it make you feel that people will rather spend dumb money on a kayak, but will never buy your $50 essential oil bottle?

This is why you need to learn these secrets.

How Does This Benefit Your Direct Sales

Business?

In my FREE Newsletter, you’ll learn about a 24 year-old restaurant waiter who failed at every network marketing biz op he ever joined, before stumbling upon these secrets by accident.

He came back into the network marketing industry with a secret weapon that earned $354,000 in less than 7-days before becoming a cash multi-millionaire in his MLM within 18 months.

And I gotta tell ya… his story is absolutely brilliant! It’s just insane. I continue to listen to his interviews and I reread his book, over and over again until this very day.

He was like the Jesus of network marketing who has come to save underdog distributors from complete starvation.

I was one of them.

I literally watched, as the elites band together to smear his name and curse his information as blasphemy; calling it nothing but a distraction. But it was clear that they were all very afraid.

So, my friend, I just can’t stress how excited I am for everything you’re going to discover (or perhaps rediscover) in the Biz-Opp Secrets Newsletter.

I hope you find this extremely valuable for you and I hope to be doing business with you in the very near future.

Now, let’s get on with what you really came here for.

7 Deadly MLM Lies...

If you are, indeed, a victim of any of these prospecting myths, I’ll show you exactly how you might be able to turn it all around.

1.

Brand Yourself:

Your personal brand is worthless if you haven’t achieved significant results. In fact, your cheerleading antics might be scaring away far more people than you’re actually “attracting.”

If you’re “branding yourself,” you could be at a major disadvantage from the beautiful, talented, gifted, and already rich elite who can get 100x more engagement just for batting an eye.

Lucky for you, there’s a way to bypass this. 

Secret: The hidden 1% of direct sellers are generally inactive on social media. They have no major following. They seldom advertise, much less send an email to their lists, and yet their incomes are at an excess of $100k a month.

Note: When I say, the “hidden 1%,” I’m not talking about your famed MLM gurus who, by the way, are nothing more than consultants making more money delivering keynotes and selling books.

Now let’s talk about the second lie that’s keeping you broke.

3.

Multiple Streams of Income:

Though it is true that you should never put all of your eggs in one basket, the reality is your copy-paste cheerleading gurus are deceiving you.

There is something inherently wrong with internet biz-in-a-box franchises that causes members to jump ship to a brand new system every 9 to 16 months and leaving innocent people to burn with an opportunity that doesn’t run anymore.

Secret: The hidden 1% of direct sellers are not promoting a bajillion dead-end marketing systems. They have complete stability. And unlike your copy-paste junkies who are nearly unemployed in between every new system they promote, the hidden 1% have legitimate investment opportunities that never cease to flow for many years.

Multiple streams of income from legitimate investment opportunities are stable. Joining a bunch of copy-paste biz ops is NOT. Your copy-paste guru is unemployed in between every sale and every system they promote. They want you to keep buying all of their bullshit. 

5.

Quitting Is The Number 1 Reason People Fail:

Quitting is not the number killer of success. Bad advice is. Bad advice leads to lackluster results, which then leads to frustration, which ultimately leads to people throwing in the towel.

The ones who stick around wind up spending years running around with their heads cut off, buying courses, and trying to find a method that works.

7.

People don’t like to be sold:

This is absolute garbage advice, and the most deadliest of all prospecting myths. If you neglect to learn sales, you will be vulnerable to over simplified promises, that will waste your time with false expectations.

This industry rakes in hundreds of millions of dollars selling “done-for-you” trash that seldom ever spits out a dollar, unless, of course, you’re one of the few with a large and ignorant following or a list who got in, in the very beginning.

None of this is to knock anyone’s hustle.

If anything I just said sounds anything like the biz op you’re promoting, I hope this gives you a sense of why you might be hitting an income ceiling that you can’t seem to break through…

And why you can’t seem to maintain sustainable income without pumping and dumping a dozen or more get-rich systems.

It is because the nature of these systems is a get-in and get-out business. Earlier investors typically run away when the pyramid scheme stops producing money, and the last recruits are left with the bag.

Now, on with the problem of MLM Prospecting Lie #7.

“People Don’t Like To Be Sold?” Yeah… Right!

It’s not that people don’t like to be sold.

What people hate are the antics of unskilled sales people who bud in and disrupt them with a “hey, how are you?” question that triggers the bullshit alarm.

Unskilled sales people use words and ask questions that reek of a clear agenda to gain something at the prospect’s expense, like the panhandling street beggars standing right at the doorway at your local bank.

It’s annoying, unpleasant, and there’s always a risk of retaliation when you don’t have quarters to spare.

Unskilled sales people occupy their prospects’ time while saying nothing all about what truly interests the prospect. They’re like the annoying pop-up display ads when you’re trying to watch your fetish porn, so I’ve heard.

All they try to do is cheer and convince prospects that the shit they’re selling is worth their money.

Hell, I hung up the phone on a network marketer, not that long ago, who found me on MLMGateway.

I entertained her for a bit. I was curious to see how MLMers are still managing cold calling in 2022. But very quickly, she showered me with obvious “yes” questions about being interested in making more money, and this is right after I told her I was very happy with the company I’m with.

I took great offense when her questions implied that her opportunity is better than mine and that I’m somehow an idiot for choosing my company. She didn’t listen to a word I said. Didn’t even bother to make a connection. She was like a very aggressive robot repeating rehearsed answers for every push back I gave her.

To her, I was nothing but a number for her personal quota. She could have at least offered me a free movie ticket or a gift card if she wanted me to do what she asked me to do.

Unskilled salespeople are all about themselves and their bottom line… while they interrupt you, invade your space, occupy your time and ask you to part with your hard-earned time and resources.

On the internet, they’ll send you clickbait emails reading, “Congratulations you made a sale.” They exaggerate. They deceive. They make noise. They deploy trickery. They make unprovable income claims.

They push websites that read, “Make unlimited $300 a day copy-pasting ads” and they come back months later with another website that says the same shit.

What unskilled sales people never think to do is deliver a valuable service:

• They don’t reward their prospects for their time.

• They don’t deliver any amount of value before asking them to part with their money.

• They don’t have an offer.

The worst of the unskilled salespeople are now hiding behind “done-for-you” marketing systems that make no money. They never learn to be effective sales people..

Effective marketing and salesmanship is your only real responsibility.

Highly effective salespeople provide a service. When a prospective customer walks through the door, the master salesperson simply asks, “Hello! How can I help you?”

After that, they shut up, listen and direct the prospect to where they want to go. The prospect does all the talking and asking. The prospective buyer feels in charge and in control.

The master salesperson does all the listening while the customer talks themselves into buying, if not ask to see more samples. The master salesperson is there to provide assistance.

The highly efficient salesperson has a full checking account with plenty more in his/her savings and can live for months without working; unless, of course, they’ve got a gambling habit with a drug and or alcohol addiction.

The point, however, is that desperation has a way to rear its ugly head in and destroy the deal.

Except we’re not here to talk about face-to-face selling, are we? No. Of course not!

What we’re talking about is master salesmanship in print or on screen, which can be mass produced to make you filthy rich.

We’re talking about the essence that forces people to respond to ads on-demand.

“The only thing you’ll learn in direct sales multi-level marketing is everything else… but sales and marketing.”

You pay whatever cost for entry, you go on a journey to start your home-based business, and you start to get excited because you’re learning valuable “marketing” skills like:

1. How to open an email account.
   
   

2. How to set goals.

3. How and where to post scripts.

4. How to use Facebook groups.

5. How to start a business page.

6. How to do keyword research.

7. How to navigate your business opportunity back-office dashboard.

8. How to publish an ad on Craigslist.com.

9. How to buy a domain name.

10. How to start a blog.

11. How to use a drag-and-drop funnel builder.

12. Where to get business cards.

13. Where to buy leads and or traffic.
    
    

14. Books to read.

15. What CDs or audios to listen to.
    
    

16. Other places to advertise.
    
    

17. How to edit and publish videos.
    
    

18. The best time to send out an email.
    
    

19. The best time of the day to post cutesy Facebook quotes.

You’ll learn all the dumb, time-wasting B.S.

You’ll never learn how to market and sell effectively.

They don’t teach you how to create offers that make people purchase in absolute panic to avoid missing out on a once-in-a-lifetime deal, even if it’s just for a freaking toothbrush.

Yes, the right offer will make people spend dumb-money on the most mundane objects that you could accidentally kick across the floor when you get out of bed.

The junk that people buy on Wish.com is living proof!

No method, medium, or platform is going to do anything for you… if you neglect to study the art of selling in print, in person, and or digital media.

Well over 95% of direct sales multi-level marketers have no real foundation in effective sales and marketing. Everything they teach you is absolutely useless…

Your back-door, roundabout “attraction marketing” tactics merely prioritizes how to get people to look at your business plan without scaring them away or getting banned from the platform.

How many people liked your videos, commented, shared, even sent you a friend request, or followed you has absolutely zero correlation to the amount of sales and money you make.

Just look no further than your “Boss life” cheerleading communities on facebook teeming with marketers who have maximized friends lists, yet they’re still getting up every morning to a job they hate.

They’re still faking it and never really making it.

This is the reason why I saw the need to create the Home-Based Business Opportunity Secrets Newsletter: to bring awareness to people, long forgotten, who have come forward many times to share these secrets with you.

Yes, none of this is theory. None of this is my own. I’m merely taking the collection of pre-existing knowledge - from the geniuses who wrote and mailed letters that sold billions, and wrapping it all up in a nice, pretty package and a $0 price tag.

And you’re lucky, because I spent $10,924.23 to hear about it… and I spent 10x more just to study put it into practice. However, it was well worth it because it’s not even a penny compared to money I make, as everyone in my team learns this.

“If it’s NOT New, Why Aren’t These Secrets Sticking?”

First and foremost, the network marketers that learn these secrets to ultimately leave when they realize they have zero ownership in their MLM company. And so they graduate from filthy rich reps to consultants and or start other businesses.

The second reason why people have forgotten is because the direct selling industry is largely full of people who get in to make money and then leave when they don’t.

The same people buying MLM books today will not be the same people reading MLM books next week, as people exit direct selling as quickly and as frequently as they come in.

I stopped being shocked and amazed when Network Marketers tell me that they never heard the name, Mike Dillard and his book Magnetic Sponsoring, as Mike Dillard was the Michael Jackson of network marketing and making millions by NOT network marketing.

So, not only are you learning diddly squat about what drives people to buy now, it doesn’t help that this industry is littered with self-proclaimed me-too experts touting copy-cat marketing jargon of which they have very little comprehension.

It’s become a game of monkey see, monkey teach with an invitation to check out their same-shit capture page at the end of their video review.

One of the things you’ll discover when reading Home-Based Business Opportunity Secrets Newsletter is that “Attraction marketing,” as you know it, has lost its power, especially now that everyone is following the same cookie-cutter recipe.

Sure, you might be hiding your MLM company, but you’re still a loud network marketer when your Facebook profiles read “Self-Employed,” “Entrepreneur,” “CEO,” “Boss Babe.” It’s a dead giveaway. Don’t get me started on the warm/fuzzy feel-good quotes and superficial comments reading:

“Boom!”

“Amazing!”

“Yes, I agree!”

“You’re crushing it!”

Now, I could go on, and on, and on. But I’ll save all the juice for the Free Newsletter, which I invite you to check out if you haven’t subscribed already: Click Here
