This weekend I took some time to relax and headed down to one of my favorite places - Barnes and Nobles. I was browsing through my preferred section – Business Motivation – which is right by the Investing section.

I found a real interesting book by Robert Shemin titled “How Come That Idiot’s Rich and I’m Not?” The title caught my attention right away so I began reading it (still in the Business section)…

I’m always watching out for who else hovers in this section because I seem to “accidentally” run into someone who thinks they know me!

It’s the gutsy pitch of the Amway / Quickstar IBO.

Yesterday was NO exception. So I was reading my book, happily relaxing and sucking in some gold nuggets when another guy (probably in his thirties) picked up a book right near me and 5 seconds later I heard – “Excuse me, are you in management?” I looked up and immediately saw the logo on his shirt which was “Nutrilite Team”.

I felt sorry for this particular IBO because he was doing exactly what was taught to him - maybe even the same way he was introduced to Quickstar.

So I heard him out in hopes of returning a ‘new way of thinking’ to him. Unfortunately, Quickstar / Amway reps are SO single minded (which can be a good trait to have) that nothing sank in for him…

Probably because he was so interested in getting his message across to me – it seemed like every time I said something, a reply was returned with.. “We have this product that can help you out…”

It reminds me of someone that I used to know in Amway about 10 years ago – if you mentioned toothpaste they would say “Amway has toothpaste!”…

Are you building your business like this? Are you “bumping” into people at the bookstore in hopes of gaining a business partner?

This is probably the most ballsy way to build your business – I have to admit though – this guy had guts and courage.

When I first started in this industry I did attempt the three foot rule. I was completely out of my comfort zone as this was something out of my personality type….

There is an easier way – and fortunately I found Magnetic Sponsoring and started to apply the strategies taught in the Magnetic Sponsoring Book and the rest changed… I only speak with prospects who are truly interested in what I have to offer. It makes for rejection free sponsoring!
