I was on MySpace recently, responding to the usual add friend requests and receiving the usual dose of advertisements. While I was opening up my inbox to check for messages, I opened one which said Hi to me.

I opened it up, and the very first 3 lines told me the message I was about to read is just another MLM marketing pitch.

“Hi Kai Wei, In my first week of joining this business, I started getting personal referrals for free and I haven’t done a thing! how is this possible?

FINALLY…an unselfish system that consistently drives help where it’s most needed…right at the newest members on our team…”

I mean…COME ON… Doing MLM marketing is not like selling a product. You don’t smack someone you haven’t even see in person other than a “Hi Kai Wei,” and start spilling the beans about why your MLM opportunity will allow you to sack your boss in months or having professionals to do all the marketing for you.

In the very first paragraph on my profile…I specifically describe myself as someone who is

“Just another guy exposed to tons of SALES PITCHES selling business opportunities.”

Looks like the guy who send me that message never did his homework of knowing a little more about his prospect, that this particular prospect is rather sick of reading or hearing MLM marketing pitches from strangers.

If that guy appears to center the conversation around me instead of him marketing MLM opportunity, if that guy ask me about the books I read or chat about the latest episode of Top Gear, I will send a message back to him.

Normally I don’t give a damn to people who fills up my inbox with pitches. They’re wasting my time opening them up and having to close them and delete them.

But that day I just happen to finish a chapter of Clayton Makepeace/Tony Flores copywriting course…about understanding your prospect…and I felt inclined to pass him some tips I learned that day about MLM marketing.

Did that guy gain anything from sending me a MLM marketing sales pitch on the very first message? NOTHING. In fact I don’t think I will even bother anymore about him.

He didn’t give me any value on our very first greeting, will he give me any value if I ever join his team?

In fact…he will be better off joining my team for $10.75 upfront, gain access to a 45-Day training module that my upline and myself created for our downlines, use the skills we teach you to sponsor 2 downlines, earn the 50% referral commission and be in the BLACK straightaway.

And he’ll definitely learn that pitching to a stranger will kill off your chances of prospecting 99% of the time. Or unless that unfortunate prospect is someone desperate for money in which case he should get a job, not get into a business.

To that guy who send me that message, here’s two tips.

People will lend you their ears when you give value to them upfront. You want to be successful? Help others first. And I don’t mean helping others by presenting a MLM business opportunity up front. That’s pitching. Don’t bother covering it up as helping as many people who are struggling.

You want to help? Know what’s their problem and give them free advice that they can apply and see results immediately.

Here’s the second one. Go buy this book. You are obviously trying to, as my upline puts it, catch butterflies by netting them one by one. That’s is a very poor way to do MLM marketing.

Build a garden…plant some flowers, and butterflies will come to you. Prospects will come to you asking for your advice or asking to join your team because you proved yourself to be valuable.

This book that I recommend teaches you that and more. You’re get a free 7-day video bootcamp too. Once you watch those videos you’ll be hitting on your head why you send me that “pitchy” message.

Best Wishes,

Kai Wei
