July 02, 2021 03:39 - 13 minutes - 18.8 MB

There's really only 3 roles to know in Network Marketing and I'm doing an event Aug 25-27, 2021 in my studio to brain dump on each of them. It's called Modern Downline Live (ModernDownlineLive.com) and we'll be focusing on the major problem EVERY business faces... Leads. Control leads, you control the game.

125: Why I Closed Secret MLM Hacks - Part 2

January 01, 2020 14:00 - 29 minutes - 40 MB

In Part 2 of this two-episode series, I talk about what the future of my MLM business looks like and an opportunity for people to join me. Secret MLM Hacks is closing, so I tell you about a backdoor that we're going to leave open for those of you guys who are huge fans of the show. And also about where the remainder of my network marketing-related services and products are actually available. How did I create an exit, a product-closing campaign? Right now, I'm really big on the campaigns...

124: Why I Closed Secret MLM Hacks - Part 1

December 25, 2019 14:00 - 32 minutes - 44.3 MB

In Part 1 of this two-episode series, I talk about my decision to close down my Secret MLM Hacks program after running it for the past few years. There was a lot of thought that went into the decision, but strategically, there are some big reasons why I closed it. I also talk about what's ahead. In the last four-five episodes, I've shared with you guys specific things that have been going on in my business. I’ve talked about the way I've built Secret MLM Hacks and the systems that have b...

123: Modern MLM Pt. 4 - How Top Earners REALLY Recruit

December 18, 2019 14:00 - 17 minutes - 23.7 MB

In this episode, I talk about the truth behind how top earners succeed in network marketing. Instead of doing home parties and talking to their family & friends, the people who have grown their business quickly have their own products on the "front end" of their business. They don't talk about their downline until someone buys from them. The way you bring somebody into your downline, the way you sell somebody, often determines what they do afterwards. That’s true for any business, any prod...

122: Modern MLM Pt. 3 - How To Stand Out In MLM

December 11, 2019 14:00 - 16 minutes - 23.1 MB

In this episode, I talk about creating a unique offer to stand out amongst other network marketers and your upline. In MLM, if somebody walked up to you right now and you were hanging out with your upline or downline and said, “You know what, I'd like to buy.” And there indeed are people out there who just are looking for your product and they truly want to purchase it - They'll just be the easy laydown sales.  But if you're hanging out with a bunch of other people who are your upline or...

121: Modern MLM Pt. 2 - One Of The Biggest MLM Hacks Today

December 04, 2019 14:00 - 23 minutes - 32.4 MB

In this episode, I talk about an often-overlooked "bridge" that the top network marketers use to grow their business online. I first got started selling online back in college when a buddy and I spent a semester doing affiliate marketing. The same principles of affiliate marketing apply to network marketers. In fact, these are very simple principles that every other industry on the planet is using online. For some reason, in a lot of network marketing or MLM, there's this negative connotat...

120: Modern MLM Pt. 1 - When I Gave Up On MLM

November 27, 2019 14:00 - 21 minutes - 30.2 MB

In this episode, I talk about how when I first got started with MLM, I was extremely reluctant to even join a company. Money was tight for my wife and me. It really started challenging my manhood and my marriage. This is the story of my struggles and why I decided to give up on MLM for a while. I was in college, while she had already graduated. I really didn't have time to be in a job. In fact, we were living on student loans.  I started looking for opportunities to make some extra cash....

119: Onboarding Fuels More Recruiting

November 20, 2019 14:00 - 12 minutes - 17.4 MB

When you sell a product to somebody, that's half the battle. It's a completely different thing to get them to use the product. Well, there’s a danger if your customers don't actually use the product. If they don't use the product, it means you don't get any testimonials because you're not getting any success stories. People think that it doesn't do everything that you thought it would. They even start to wonder why they're paying you. People don't think it could do everything that you sa...

118: What Makes MLM Simple Today

November 13, 2019 14:00 - 23 minutes - 32 MB

The Internet is powerful. Well, I actually believe the Internet is a little bit of a distraction until you understand what marketing actually is. Otherwise, we fall into these fallacies that posting on Facebook is marketing. No, that's posting on Facebook, right? That is not marketing.  I'm a little bit obsessed with going backward in history and finding these really cool stories of marketing. And then we add on the power of the Internet, the automation of the Internet. And the game gets r...

117: The Easiest Sales

November 06, 2019 14:00 - 17 minutes - 23.4 MB

Just because someone has the money and a heartbeat, doesn't mean you should sell to them. Let me tell you why, in this episode.   Well, when I have no criteria on the kind of person I want to bring into my downline or sell my product to, I have to be very good at varying levels of education.    And when I go and I sell somebody who's already been in an MLM, that means I don't have to go and answer questions such as - Is this a pyramid scheme? How does this work? What is a downline? W...

October 23, 2019 20:00 - 16 minutes - 23 MB

Today I wanna talk to you about why they didn’t buy your product…    I'm excited about today's episode. I just got off a webinar and I've done this webinar three-ish times now.    Two of those times have been in the last few days… Come to think of it, it’s probably my fourth time doing it.    But what's interesting about it is… When you do a pitch over and over and over again, you start to notice things that make it more or less effective.    So I’ve been able to see what thi...

First of all, if you wanna see me riding a bike and doing a podcast episode at the same time, head on over to YouTube and watch this episode ;) https://youtu.be/dFaFYxx1cVg I've had a ton of fun in the last two months.

SMHR 112: Is MLM Oversaturated?

October 02, 2019 21:12 - 20 minutes - 30.8 MB

Today I want to address a VERY big question that people ask me…     "Is MLM saturated?"   There’s something I've started doing a lot in the evenings…     I just go for a 10 - 20-mile bike ride.    I also like to walk quite a bit so I can just listen to podcasts.    I'm studying    I'm thinking    Sometimes I'm just jamming out to music   … It's become my ME time.    I'm sure it won't always be in the evenings, but it has been for the past little bit… Especially ...

111: When Does The Sale Really End?

September 25, 2019 20:01 - 23 minutes - 32.7 MB

The last episode I did was standing here as well… I had two big thoughts on my mind so I wanted to do another one here. About two or three weeks ago I hosted an event called OfferMind. I sold 650 tickets We sold about $1.9 million on stage … Which is awesome! It was a screaming success and it was a lot of fun. We'll continue to sell that program which is exciting.

Today I wanna talk to you guys about HOW you follow up with the leads and the people that are actually interested in either your downline or purchasing your product.   We're gonna talk about FOLLOW-UP.    This is something I've talked about quite a bit in other places that I publish… But the follow-up is EVERYTHING.    Whenever I'm at an event, this is one of the BIGGEST questions I get asked.

June 12, 2019 20:00 - 28 minutes - 40.3 MB

Six years ago when I joined my first MLM... I was so mad!   I went in and I was like, “I want to be successful.”   And the guy is like, “Hey, you really want to be successful?”   I said, “Absolutely.”   He said, "Well this is what successful people do.

June 05, 2019 19:56 - 23 minutes - 32.8 MB

I'm very pumped for PART 2 of ‘How to Rate Your MLM Business’.   Like I said in the last episode, this is not about rating the MLM that you work for.

Now that you are able to go in and treat this as a compan...

April 24, 2019 20:02 - 28 minutes - 40.3 MB

It’s no secret that a lot of strategies in MLM are broken and outdated...   The MLM model has undoubtedly changed over time…     In fact, I just spoke about this in an interview I did with Lynn Thomas from Create Your Dream Life…   The Internet became publicly available in 1991…   Over 10 years ago!    A lot of the tactics in MLM were developed BEFORE the Internet…    And a lot of MLM companies are moving forward as if that's not a reality...    Which I frankly th...

March 27, 2019 20:06 - 15 minutes - 11.5 MB

MY MLM TOP LEVEL STRATEGY   I have a program that I make available to everybody in my downline (not just those who are directly underneath me).   It's a program where that helps with auto recruiting in MLM. It takes care of 90% of the heavy lifting involved in onboarding somebody.   The program helps you set up all these funnels and the downline automation that we use.   What's cool about the MLM I'm in is, they're super-psyched about all the stuff that I do.   They're li...

March 20, 2019 20:00 - 12 minutes - 8.95 MB

HOW DO I FIND MORE PROSPECTS?   One of the topics I get asked about the most is, "Steven, how do I find more prospects?"   Obviously, this is one of the biggest questions that ALL MLMers have. It makes sense.   I remember the first MLM I ever joined. I went and I talked to friends and family… This was years ago. I literally walked down Main Street.   When I was done, the biggest question that I had was, “How on earth do I find more people to go and pitch? How do I find more p...

If you're like me you know MLM is an amazing opportunity to grow a REAL asset for yourself. But you also see that there is HUGE issues starting to emerge. WHY haven't big MLMs let tactics change in over 30 years? Or why have they been cutting commissions smaller and smaller?
