Where the hell do I start with these 'monthly monsters'
Just get bums on seats they said...
Fill the room and let the monster 6 figure earners build your team they said...
I remember my first one. Turned up with no idea what was about to happen. Booked into the hotel, dumped my gear in the room and shot down the stairs to register.
I took my seat.
Holy shiiyyaaat!!!
Music was blasting and hands were clapping.
Do I run?
Do I join in?
I kinda just sat there, awkwardly enjoying it.
One fuckin hallelujah and I'm gone!
As the meeting went on and I heard income testimonial after income testimonial, I start to become hyper inside.
Filled with belief!
This cockeyed sheep farmer from the middle of nowhere with a suit hanging off him like the cinema curtains was earning £6000/month.
With my farming background, we got talking, great guy he was. Made it all sound so simple. To be fair he wasn't capable of making it sound anything else.
I soaked it all up like a sponge, maybe a naive little sponge, who knows. It was fun all the same.
There's something special about standing beside a man, just a plain man, breathing the same air, talking the same language but with one massive difference.
Knowing he is picking up a check for somewhere around £50,000/month
Every month!
I know you have felt the same, possibly feeling the same now. The hope attached to the short time spent in their company was immense. For that short time you forget all about your real life worries, even going through some of lifes lowest moments, you forget about it all and immerse yourself in their life of abundance.
That's the 3% story
As your time in the business increase's, so does your frustrations.
Hope slowly starts to fade.
I been there homie, I know all about it.
I been in fuckin tears over this shit!
So close but yet so far. It should be so dam easy. But it fuckin isn't!
I shared your excitement when your local shop keeper said he would turn up for one the meetings. You already have the plan made of how many people he will introduce with his contacts in the retail market, how he will lead you to contacts around the world.
In some short months you will have a team all over the world, you will shoot up the ranks in your company and gain the recognition you crave, desire and deserve.
Then the complete dick head doesn't turn up.
And he isn't answering his phone.
You smile and tell the other distributors some bullshit story as to why he isn't coming, just to save your embarrassment.
You pretend everything is ok.
But it fucking isn't, is it?
You're exploding inside. You feel sick.
2 weeks of dreaming, hoping, going to bed excited about what your new distributor is going to do for your business.
All taken away from you as the clock hits 10am and the meeting starts. There is no way he will appear. Everyone tells you how he will be at the next one.
But you know as well as I do he won't be, don't ya? You know deep down he had no intention of coming, probably only said he would so you would get the fuck out of his shop and stop annoying him.
Happened all the time.
We started a one day meeting local to us. My upline ran the show and I was to be speaking on the day. I was also told a company superstar was flying in from Brazil on his way home and would be attending the event.
Freekin awesome yah?
Sure enough, he showed up. I liked the guy. He did his thing and left. Did his thing well too may I add. Future meetings saw this superstar and I become good friends and a few years later, once we had both left the MLM company we were with, we were talking over times gone by, all the funny, stupid stuff we did and got onto the subject of how we first met.
As I explained the story of him flying in from Brazil on his way home, he burst out laughing and when he finally pulled himself together and started to talk...
...turns out he left his home in Glasgow, about a 3hr drive, at 5am to come up and meet some Nigerian kid who said he would be at our meeting.
Was he there?
lolllllzzzz
6 hrs driving just to meet me :p
The meetings weren't all bad I guess. I met some cool people and had a lot of fun.
But that's not what we're here for is it?
I wanted to build an empire and make some fuckin money.
The Home Business Accelerator we're about to release will help you reach your business goals without any of the nonsense. You can choose to show up at the meetings if you want, not in the hope of Pedro from the local shop turning up, but in the knowing you're building the empire which was once only hope.
sleep well partner
love ya
ewan
ps, part 2 will be with ya tomorrow, it's funny as hell so don't miss it and make sure you share this with your gang.
pps, don't ya think my share buttons are cool? it's worth sharing just to share the cool share buttons :D
