The Gold Mine, Story.
In the great old Gold rush days of the 1800’s fortunes were made but was it only the hard working gold miners that made the fortunes ? I mean these old miners worked long hours in really harsh conditions to try and make their fortunes with very little comforts of life.
In the great old Gold rush days of the 1800’s fortunes were made but was it only the hard working gold miners that made the fortunes ? I mean these old miners worked long hours in really harsh conditions to try and make their fortunes with very little comforts of life.
Many miners came away empty handed through misfortune and bad luck. However they said once gold fever had you, you were set on a path of endlessly trying to make a fortune by running to every place on the news of a gold strike to stake your claim and start digging for your fortune.
In all this mad rush however, there were a group of 
people that made incredible fortunes that never got their hands dirty, never did a hard day’s work in a mine, lived in comfort, made money whether or not a single piece of gold was found and they helped millions of miners go after their fortune by suppling all the hopeful miners with the tools of trade (possibility) to mine out the gold.
Who where they?
They were the merchants, that supplied all the miners with their picks, shovels, boots and supplies and the merchants made money wether miners found gold or not and the miners were more than happy to buy whatever the merchant had to help them get the gold.
Many more merchants made their fortunes compared to the fortunate few miners that struck it rich in the gold rush. Meanwhile the merchants made their fortunes without breaking a sweat and the only difference between the merchants and the miners was the merchants were content to make a little bit of money from a lot of miners by supplying them tools of trade, whereas the miner just wanted to strike it rich using the tools that they purchased.
The merchants were happy to make less and leverage of many miners whereas the miners were only happy to strike it rich leveraging of their own individual effort. The merchants made money all the time and the miners were lucky if they made money and when the miners made money they went back to the merchants to get bigger and better tools.
As it goes those that supplied the ever increasing band of hopeful miners during the gold rush with all their tools of trade made fortunes, in contrast to the ever hopeful miners using the tools to hopefully strike it rich. Miners would strike out all day everyday but not the merchants.
The merchants were the ones that helped the miners get closer to their dream by supplying the tools they needed. The merchants even told the miners where the best places were and showed them the best ways to mine. So no matter how many different mines a miner worked he would go back to the same merchant time and again to whom he thought had the best tools, the best advice and the knowhow.
Modern Day MLM Analogy.
The Gold Mines are MLM companies.
The miners are the networkers / members
The Gold is the new sales (members / distributors).
The merchants are the ones providing marketing tools mentoring, training, the lead generation and recruiting systems that help MLMers build their networks and groups.
Modern Day Marketing & MLM Gold Miners.
Today we have millions of network marketing people working the MLM company (gold mines) in the hope of striking it rich. They work hard but with mainly with ineffective outdated tools, systems, techniques and practices that cause people to abandon one mine (company) after another in the hope that in the next mine (company) they will strike it rich.
For me I have mined a lot of gold and tons of dirt from over 50 companies and gained invaluable experience along the way. The thing that I despaired at the most was the new people coming in and disappearing in a cloud of disappointment after they ran out of family friends and money trying to keep the hungry recruiting machine going just to try and qualify for the silly volume targets most companies put in the way of people success.
People join people but only good business systems that work, will keep them together.
Thus in the latter half of 2008 I made the switch from trying to recruit people into my latest MLM deal, to actually helping and mentoring people already involved in MLM. My goal is to build their businesses by showing them how to avoid the common pitfalls and where to find what works and to have some fun with it all.

Sometimes if you can just avoid the typical mistakes that knock people out, you can last the distance to the big paydays that the MLM is so well known for promoting.
Instead of positioning myself as just another MLMer peddling the latest pre-launch deal, I am going to position myself as business builder & mentor who directs people to real solutions for building big MLM organizations no matter what company you are in or will be in.
Build your own organization of people with unique systems and support,
Build it once,
Build it big,
Build it so it lasts and pays you no matter what companies you switch to in the future.
"I don't want your money now. I help you first, pay me later."
