An In-depth Look at Some Popular Funded Proposal Systems

By Jeremy Standiford

Now that you know what a funded proposal is, let’s talk about a few of the systems out there. Mike Dillard’s Magnetic Sponsoring was one of the first. When you go to his site he offers a free 7-day boot camp, and of course, to enter the boot camp you must enter your name and e-mail address. This will subscribe you to Mike’s newsletter, which provides a slow drip of information designed to get your prospect to buy Mike’s book, “Magnetic Sponsoring” for $40. Mike’s newsletter is actually really good, and I recommend subscribing to it by clicking here. On the back end of Magnetic Sponsoring are multi-tiered informational products useful to network marketers. These products range from talking on the phone (black belt recruiting) to driving traffic (traffic formula). These products vary in price, but if you bought every product, it would total over $1000. My system contains the same information, as well as weekly training webinars on cutting edge techniques. You can give it a 14-day test drive right now for only $1.

Next, there’s The Renegade Network Marketer, created by Ann Sieg. This one is more basic than Mike Dillards, it involves offering a free e-book “The 7 Greatest Lies of Network Marketing” and of course, you provide your e-mail address in order to download. When you enter your e-mail address you subscribe to Ann’s list where she talks about various MLM related things and encourages you to buy a copy of her book “The Renegade Network Marketer” for $67. The book is similar to Mike Dillard’s “Magnetic Sponsoring” in fact I was talking on the phone with Jimmy Davis a while back, and he said that Ann Sieg had basically plagiarized Mike Dillard’s book. I’m not saying that it’s true, but that’s what he told me. In the back office of The Renegade Network marketer, there’s some information on how to build your MLM business online, it wasn’t too helpful, but I did get some value from it. That’s one of the reasons I started using my current system, the back office is packed full of useful information and video tutorials that will teach you every thing you need to generate leads for your business with both free and paid methods. It’s easy to get started and there’s an entire support team and community forum to help you if you run into any problems. To take it for a 14-day test drive for only $1 click here.

These systems provide valuable informational products that offer you a commission on each sale, and the contact information of the buyer so you can build your MLM business. The information is good, but I do have a few problems with systems like these.

The first, is that they are not self-branded, that is when you send someone to the their website, you are not anywhere on the site, your prospect does not get to know you in any way through this and as a result will have no idea who you are when you initiate contact. Network marketing is all about building relationships, if there’s no interaction between you and your prospect or if your prospect is not getting to know you better, there is no relationship, and building your business with this method will be more difficult.

The second problem is that if your prospect doesn’t buy right away, but does enter their email address, they will start receiving e-mails from Mike Dillard or Ann Sieg, but not you. Once again, you are not building a relationship with your prospect, and if they do buy the product, they will have no idea who you are when you initiate contact. Most prospects won’t even enter their e-mail address, and even some that do might not even be interested in what you have to offer because they don’t know you. That’s why it’s important to make sure every e-mail you get is on your list and receives e-mails form you. Ask any Internet marketer and they will tell you that the money is in the list. My system is completely self-branded. If a prospect clicks to your site, they will see you on the first page, and when they enter their name and e-mail, they’ll start receiving e-mails from you.

The final problem with these systems is that you can’t get in for less than $40, there’s no test-driving the system to take a sneak peak and see exactly how it works. It’s sort of a “mystery box”, you never know what you’re going to get until you fork over your hard earned cash.

If you are serious about building your MLM business you owe it to yourself to check out my generic, self-branded marketing system. It incorporates 11 different income streams in the system through various affiliate programs. It’s what we call a funded proposal on steroids. When they subscribe to your newsletter, they get e-mails from you, and in case you’re worried about having to constantly write e-mails, all of that is taken care off. We have about 2 months of pre-written ad copy that you can modify and use and modify as you please. It’s all done for you. My system positions you as the leader, because it is branded with you and only you. Click here to visit my website, you will see me on the first page and you will be able to sign up for my newsletter packed with tons of useful information. When you subscribe I’ll show you all the tools, training, marketing strategies, tips, and even confidential ad sources myself and other top earners in this industry use.
