Wasn't what I expected. Maybe the low rating?, April 30, 1999

This review is from: Confessions of a Multi-level Marketer (Networking from Your Heart) (Paperback)
As Pat has metioned, a lot of the material in his book he picked up from other books he has read. It does give a realalistic view of day to day frustrations of mlm. To me he lost my interest and turned me off when he started on about his "new age" beliefs. If your a strong Christian or don't care about new age doctrine, you can get some good info out of his book. If your looking for how to's on mlm, look elsewhere. If your wondering about common thoughts that mlmers think, it'll be a good read.

Insightful and to the point, February 8, 1999
This review is from: Confessions of a Multi-level Marketer (Networking from Your Heart) (Paperback)
I found this book to be a nugget. I do have a couple of other MLM books that are my favorites but this is definetely a must read for people in MLM. There were at least 3 chapters that catapulted my thinking: 1. Developing a Mission Statement 2. The $300 dollar solution. Wow! This simple little solution just blew me away. How could MLM be that simple. Why doesn't your upline ever tell you about this? Do they even know? 3. The following quote from the book really stimulated my thought process: "Anonymous marketing just doesn't work anymore. Consumers want to know not only what they're buying, but who they're buying it from. The people, not the logo. Consumer relationship is as important as product development." Think of all of the Dave Thomas (Wendy's) type of commercials on TV. Successful growing companies where we can identify with the owner. They are everywhere. Further proof that MLM is the future.

Mission Statement and MLM success -- Finally!, January 7, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Confessions of a Multi-level Marketer (Networking from Your Heart) (Paperback)
I've been in MLM for several years now and am delighted that Patrick Snetsinger has finally touched on the one tool REQUIRED for success in this business. His chapter on Mission Statements is my favorite! He states 'in a world in which we are daily forced to make decisions that lead us either closer to or further from our goals, no tool is as valuable in providing direction as a mission statement -- a brief and focused statement of purpose that can be used to initiate, evaluate, and refine all of life's activities. A carefully thought out mission statement acts as both a harness and a sword -- harnessing you to what is true about your life, and cutting away all that is false.' It is my experience that MLM distributors are presented with dozens of decisions; the proverbial "forks in the road" every day! With a mission statement in your hand and in your heart, you will be able to decide which road to take in order to achieve objectives -- harness and cut away as needed.
This chapter looks at several 'high profile' company statements and then takes the reader through a 6-step program <grin> to writing a personal Mission Statement.
I give a copy of Confessions of a Multi-level Marketer; Networking From Your Heart to all new recruits in my organization with instructions to read this chapter first!
