So I ran them too.



I didn't have any other ideas, and they said do that, and I did. I was excited.

I got hundreds of people to reply. And even some good orders from potential recruits. But almost no one stuck.

After almost 9 months, I finally decided maybe I should try something else.

At the time, I figured it was maybe my area, or that the ads just happened to pull the wrong sorts of people - they all wanted $10,000/mo but for some reason, they didn't have any staying power. All I could think was, "What is WITH these people?! Why isn't there anyone coming who's like me?"

I decided right then that maybe I'd try asking for people like me, in the hopes that maybe if they were more like me, they wouldn't quit so fast. After all, I was still there...

That's when I started writing ads asking for people with "experience in marketing, teaching, public speaking, owned their own business before...", i.e. people like me.

Immediately the number of respondents dropped. There were fewer of those types, I guess. But the good news was that the ones I got helped me build the fastest growing organization in the company's then 25-year history.

Moral: Don't give up on the whole business of NM if what they told you isn't working for you. Nothing works for everyone, even if it IS working for your upline. Always try something different, more suited to you, before quitting.
