One quack is the mad focus on recruiting. For years, it's been all about getting people to sell and recruit.

Customers, if someone earns 10-40% on the orders, will be smaller potatoes, yes, but they also last long term.

  • Get customers (earn a percent on their orders)
  • Get sales reps who want to get customers and more sales reps (earn a percent on their orders)

The other quack that's recognizable instantly is the urge to turn every person you meet into a recruit, including all customers.

99 of every 100 are pushing their palms toward you and saying "No, I don't want to sell."
