5.0 out of 5 stars #1 Most Popular Network Marketing Book, December 1, 2000
By Kent Ponder (Albuquerque., NM USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Though various books are available on network marketing (I've seif-published four of them myself), Poe's is the most popular and best introduction. He explains WHY it works, WHY to do it, WHO is doing it, and HOW to do it. As past senior editor of Success magazine, Poe is not a network marketer per se, but as a professional journalist of high reputation he interviewed enough experts and top performers in the industry to understand and present, with great credibility and clarity, the industry that produces individual distributor incomes of up to hundreds of thousands of dollars per month, even from home.

Poe's respectability and conservative image has boosted network marketing's overall image and reputation since Wave Three was published a few years ago. Poe named me in Wave Three as analyst and watchdog of the industry, but this book has made my watchdog role easier in that the book has raised awareness of proper principles and also has reduced some companies' abuses by educating the public regarding what to expect from responsible MLM companies and how to choose one of the better ones.

Wave Three may be the most popular book ever written on the subject, and is "MUST reading" even though Poe followed this with a Wave Four title. If you want to read an insightful, solidly researched, responsible, credible, informative and engaging book on network marketing, you can do no better than with these pages.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wave 3, The New Era in Network Marketing, April 16, 2000
By Jason B. (Sparks, Nevada United States) - See all my reviews
After hearing for years, that MLM or Network Marketing was a 'bad thing', I happened upon this book. Once I started reading it I couldn't stop! I stayed up all night reading the whole thing. If you buy into the MLM is a scam idea, yet you really know nothing about what the business really is, this is the book to really tell 'ya what it's all about...

3.0 out of 5 stars The Most Critical Information Ever , August 21, 2005
It took me years to understand what it takes to be successfull in MLM and it has nothing to do with one's talents or the lack thereof.

One of the most sure ways I learned in becoming successful is identifing the right company to be a part of and one that is positioned at the beginning of a trend. Richard Poe's book, 'Wave 3 : The New Era in Network Marketing', page 69, teaches you the importance of knowing where a company is positioned within it's markets place.

Just knowing how to apply that chart to a network marketing company is priceless. Yes, I bought the book and THE most valuable information came from one page.

However, let me say this. Because I understand this information I'm able to make a more intelligent decision when analyzing and picking MLM companies. The company I picked as a result of this information alone allowed me to earn a full-time income in 7 months!

So buy the book and study page 69!

I hope this helps you!

Be Blessed and Properous
