What’s Working Now – Is It Really Necessary?

If you’re anywhere within 10 miles of an MLM opportunity and you have a modicum of a pulse, you’ve likely heard of Mike Dillard’s What’s Working Now. It’s his answer to the information overload we see everywhere on the internet. The MLM industry is no exception. Seems that, for a mere $37-$97 per month, he will sift and sort and give you the best of the best. i.e. What’s Working Now.

Honestly I have no idea of the content or the value of what he’s offering, but my initial impression is that we probably don’t need this. I’ve looked at thousands of ‘deals’ over my 30+ years of being a full-time entrepreneur. Although I’m not always right, I find that most of the time I am. Call it instinct.

The problem isn’t information overload for struggling entrepreneurs. The problem is not that we don’t know what to do because there’s so much that we can do. The problem is our inability to consistently do anything. We’re all looking or that “Magic Bullet” that will make it all happen. There’s isn’t one!

Network marketing and online businesses, Real Estate agents, insurance agencies, donut shops, any business really is simply the business of connecting with people. Yes, there are dozens, even hundreds of ways to do that. All you need to do is to pick a couple that feel comfortable for you and proceed. Carry out your plan daily, religiously and with great consistency and you will have success. (check out the Zappos Fan Page sometime…)

I’m reminded of a story from my ‘insurance life’ of an agent who never sold any life insurance. Said it was too much hassle. His company rep challenged him to do just one thing with every contact and phone call. Anything he wanted. So he decided to say at the end of every call, “Oh by the way, you don’t want to buy any life insurance do you?”

Lame. I know. Hopeless and stupid!

He sold 5 policies the first month. And 8 the next.

Most of his clients would answer, “Nah!” But a few would say, “I’m glad you mentioned that. My wife and I have been talking about that and yes, we would like to buy some life insurance.”

Point is simply this. Almost anything you do. That you do consistently. That you choose to do over a long period of time will bring you success.

So when people ask me, “Hey Dennis… What’s working now?”

I simply tell them, “I am.”

P.S. Here’s a little something else I wrote years ago on INFORMATION OVERLOAD! http://budurl.com/learnedit
