Network Marketing Survival 2
Of course, there are certain timeless principles that will never change in the

Chapter 2: Network Marketing In The
21st Century
Sales Versus Marketing
Times have changed since network marketing was introduced to the world. We 
must be very careful how we approach our prospects, however.
Just because the profitability of network marketing is still viable doesn’t mean 
that using the same old techniques that are used in the 80s is not going to get 
you the same results in the 21st century!
Here is the irony part – when the term ‘network marketing’ was coined, everyone 
focuses on the first word rather than the second. In other words, they go around 
networking instead of marketing!

Network Marketing Survival 2
Most people who are in network marketing do not have a CLUE what marketing 
is all about! They go about recruiting friends and family on their name list while 
deluding themselves into thinking that they are ‘sharing’ or ‘marketing’ their 
products to people.
MYTH: Network marketers are not in sales, they are merely sharing products 
with other people
TRUTH: Network marketers who do not have a marketing system in place 
are actually in SALES.
What they are actually doing is that they are SELLING an idea to someone else. 
Whether they are selling the product or the opportunity, they are trying to 
convince someone to change their mind about what they have to offer.
Remember – Sharing is different from selling. It is totally different. If you are my 
friend and you are having a conversation with me right now, I would share with 
you about my passion for eating exotic food.
When I’m sharing with you, I’ve no intention to SELL you exotic food (unless I am
getting commissions the restaurant that cooks exotic food).
Get the idea? Selling is different from sharing.
So the question is: How do I generate business without ‘SELLING’?
I’m not saying that you do not sell any products. But what I’m saying is that the 
approach when it comes to marketing versus selling is totally different!
Take a doctor for example.
A doctor sells his or her services. But they don’t go around recruiting patients or 
sending out fliers and advertisements saying that they are the best gynecologist 
in town!
Lamar Schoell LLC

Network Marketing Survival 2
When people go to the doctor, they seek the doctor’s EXPERT advice. They 
listen intensively to every word they have to say and they will take whatever 
medicine they recommend. (So much different compared to network marketing 
recruitment, don’t you think?)
The same principle applies to marketing!
Marketers sell products, but not in the way sales people do. A person who 
markets their business effectively is a LEADER. They are EXPERTS. They don’t 
go around peddling their wares like a sleazy salesman. They are good at 
marketing themselves in such a way that they will always:
 Find the right target market
 Find the right people to join their downline (and their downlines will listen 
to them and do what they say)
 NOT waste their time on the wrong people
 Attract the right people to them.
Old School Versus The Google Revolution
There was a time in the past where people have NOT heard of network 
marketing. If you bring them to a ‘dog and pony show’ telling them about how 
network marketing will give them residual income and CHANGE THEIR LIFE, 
they will gaze in awe about this fantastic NEW opportunity.
Unfortunately, network marketing is totally different today! Times have changed 
and network marketing is nothing new.
An average person is approached by network marketing companies at least 10 
times. I personally have been approached by network marketing reps and 
opportunities once every month!
Lamar Schoell LLC
- 10 -
Network Marketing Survival 2
The fact of the matter is, network marketing is opportunities are like the sand at 
the beach. There are more and more companies springing up like mushrooms 
after the rain and the COMPANY : DISTRIBUTOR ratio is going to shift 
dramatically. In other words, competition is going to kill the average network 
marketer as a result of the Google revolution.
Today, someone can go online and Google the search term – Network Marketing
Opportunity or Home Based Business and get bombarded by countless business
opportunities… and they can do it in the comfort of their own home without 
having to drive out to Star Bucks and listen to a stranger as they ‘show the plan’.
The funny thing is a lot of network marketers do not realize that the Internet has 
revolutionized the way that network marketing is done!
Some people are sucking in paid leads like a vacuum cleaner and earning 
massive money online while the poor network marketing rep who are still making 
a name list of friends and family and going to be crushed by the competition!
Now that we know about the competition that we are up against, you have a 
better understanding on how to use the Internet to work FOR YOU rather than 
against you!

Network Marketing Survival 2
Attrition Rates Are Increasing
People who drop out of network marketing companies are quite common today. 
However, because of increasing awareness about network marketing recruitment
‘tricks’, information overload and saturation, more and more people will be 
dropping out of network marketing companies!
In the past, people are more concerned about supporting their upline and being 
loyal to their company. Today, there are so many business opportunities 
available out there that people are jumping from one opportunity to another in a 
heartbeat!
They don’t want to wait 6-12 months before they break even (or get their first 
commission check like some people do). They want fast, relevant results – just 
like what Google offers!
Being aware of the rising attrition rates will give a network marketer a realistic 
expectation about the industry rather than jumping in believing that motivation 
and hope will provide the ingredients for success in network marketing.

Chapter 3: Choosing The Right
Network Marketing Company
The Right Vehicle
Let’s be brutally honest with ourselves here.
Network marketing is all about making MONEY. 
You are NOT in charity. If you are building this business because of your loyalty 
to your company (because you feel that it is a good company) or because you 
are loyal to your upline, you will FAIL IN NETWORK MARKETING IF YOUR 
INTENTION IS NOT VERY CLEAR FROM THE START!
A network marketing company (or network marketing for that matter) is just
a vehicle for you to make money, full stop.
As an independent distributor, you are an entrepreneur! An entrepreneur must 
deal with partners, workers and suppliers. You are NOT in business alone (if you 
Lamar Schoell LLC
- 13 -
Network Marketing Survival 2
are, then you are not an entrepreneur but a small business person). As an 
entrepreneur, your network marketing company is your PARTNER.
Your business will survive if your partners are performing well. In business, 
people will break partnerships if it isn’t profitable! The same should apply in your 
network marketing business as well!
Remember, your company is only a vehicle. If the management team is stuffing 
up, the margins are low (and not profitable), and the other variables do not 
equate to a profitable business, then it’s better to find another company!
Remember this golden rule: Mixing business with emotions is a recipe for 
disaster!
The Right Management Team
The management team is the backbone of your business. They are your 
suppliers and your collection agents all in one. How can you survive in the 
network marketing industry if your suppliers are not delivering the goods on time 
or the company has cash flow problems?
In order to choose the right company with the right management team, you must 
do your due diligence on these factors:
 Their track record. Is the network marketing company backed by a solid 
track record?

Is the team here to stay? There are some network company owners 
who build and burn and build again. You don’t want to invested interest in 
a company that is there today but gone tomorrow!
Lamar Schoell LLC
- 14 -
Network Marketing Survival 2
 The vision. Does the company have a solid vision and are they actively 
working towards that vision?
 The capacity to expand. Sometimes, when a new startup company is 
expanding, they might run into cash flow problems when their sales 
volume increases! They need to build more warehouses, deal with 
shipment and pay MORE commissions and bank loans when more and 
more orders are taken. Just because the teams are growing and the sales
are coming in doesn’t mean the company is able to cope.
A Product That Is In Demand
This is a no-brainer. No matter how good your company, management team, 
compensation plan or your upline is, a company will NOT survive if their product 
does not stand the test of time.
For example, multivitamin supplements were a growing trend during the 80s. 
Because of the rising health needs due to pollution and people spending more 
and more hours in the office, it created a need.
But that doesn’t mean that the trend is still growing.  There are some companies 
which came up with supplements that do not require water for mixing or 
swallowing. It caters to those people who are always on the run.
Today, people are not just developing new products… they are engineering new 
product lines and creating new demands while diminishing existing ones. The 
question remains… does the demand for your product justify your efforts for 
promoting it?
The Right Trend

Network Marketing Survival 2
This chart below will tell you what stage you are at. Of course, there is no right or
wrong as to when is the right time to join a network marketing company, because
it is up to you to work out YOUR own growth.
Front Loading Companies
What is front loading?
Front loading is a bad way to build your business by ‘buying rank’ when you 
invest in an inordinately large amount of products – especially when you are just 
starting your business.
A lot of network marketing companies usually collapse due to unethical front 
loading practices disguised as a ‘shortcut’ to entice reps to invest more money.
Lamar Schoell LLC
- 16 -
Network Marketing Survival 2
If you find yourself investing in more stocks than you need for personal 
consumption and your monthly personal sales, then you might get yourselves 
into cash flow problems.
WARNING: AVOID FRONT LOADING COMPANIES AT ALL COSTS!

Chapter 4: Finding The Right People
To Work Together With
Supportive Uplines And Sidelines
Are your uplines supportive people? There are people who will be there for you 
through thick and thin. There are even sidelines that are willing to do the same 
for you and your network.
Having these people on your team will definitely grow your business and the 
ability to leverage on them is very important.
Here is one thing that will help you to understand whether the team you are 
joining will work out to your advantage or not…
 
Let’s say you have an excellent networking tool that you can use for prospecting 
online. Does your upline support you using it or does he or she restricts you to 
‘following the system’ given by the company?
You be the judge of whether this will work for you or against you.
Lamar Schoell LLC
- 18 -
Network Marketing Survival 2
Speedy Support
Network marketing companies with poor support will get in your way of success.
You see, there are company support staff that are willing to assist you when the 
products are faulty. It will affect your network even if they are downline because 
somewhere down the line, someone’s income will be affected if they are not good
at handling a situation (like a faulty product or filling in the registration form).
There are some companies that even construct an online prospecting system 
that will help a new rep to get up to speed. But if the new downline does not 
know how to utilize it, it will affect him and his sponsor because they are not 
maximizing the system to recruit more effectively!
If your company has a solid or speedy support team, you will be able to leverage 
on their support! Otherwise, you will need to manually coach your downlines on 
how to deal with administrative work!
Joining Networking Groups Outside
Life exists outside network marketing groups. One of the best ways to touch base
with other people and get more fresh leads is to join other network marketing 
groups such a business networks or Rotary clubs.
Even your church or religious organizations are great places to meet new people 
(but make sure your intention is sincere because God is ‘watching’).
One of the biggest problems with some network marketing reps is that some of 
them know NOTHING but network marketing (and network marketing jargon) to 
the point that they do not know how to relate to the outside world!
Lamar Schoell LLC
- 19 -
Network Marketing Survival 2
If you join networks such as those mentioned above, you will be able to relate to 
people in the ‘real world’ and you will be able to connect with them and expand 
your networks!

Chapter 5: Differentiating Between
Compensation Plans
The Importance of Compensation Plans
There are many types of compensation plans out there. Some of them are so 
complex that it requires a degree in mathematics to figure out how much money 
you will get in your next commission check!
Some people tend to neglect compensation plans. They feel that it is not 
important at the initial stages. But if you are not very clear how to ‘place’ your 
downlines, you will LOSE A LOT OF INCOME and in some cases, some of your
downlines will lose vested interest if you fail to place the right people under 
them.
Remember, losing 10% may not seem like a big amount but when you calculate 
in the long run, your sales volume could total up to THE THOUSANDS and it is 
even worse when it is not YOUR income because if you cause your downline to 
lose money due to poor planning then you will lose the trust in your leadership 
which is something money can’t buy back!
Lamar Schoell LLC
- 21 -
Network Marketing Survival 2
Single Level Versus Multi-Level
What are the fundamental differences between single level marketing and multi-
level marketing? Well for starters, it is more than the amount of tiers which 
commissions are paid.
Allow me to elaborate how the mechanics affect a person’s vested interest.
Single level programs – prevalent amongst the majority of the world’s pay 
scheme where it involves a merchant paying an affiliate or sales person, is more 
beneficial for the merchant (or in the network marketing scenario, more beneficial
to the sponsor).
Multi-level programs on the other hand, pay many levels of marketers. In some 
cases, the person who personally sponsors someone and gets a sale from him, 
only gets a small percentage because a lot of the commission goes to his 
upline(s).
So how does this apply to network marketing survival?
 Certain network marketing compensation plans usually pay more 
commission to those who personally sponsor someone. If their downline 
sponsors someone, the upline gets a lot less money.
On the other hand, certain plans pay MORE to someone who builds their 
group (in essence, volume generated by one’s downline – this ensures 
that the sponsor will not leave their downline without any help) It is 
important to recognize at which level you are getting the bulk of your
money!
 There are many programs OUTSIDE the network marketing company that 
that promotes supplementary material to assist the network building 
process. These programs are usually SINGLE LEVEL programs that 
Lamar Schoell LLC
- 22 -
Network Marketing Survival 2
provide a secondary income to the main business. 
Why this is very important to recognize is because these tools are helpful 
for prospecting and providing cash flow that more and more marketers are
using it.
Single level supplementary programs are also viable because a network 
marketing company do not allow the rep to build more than one multi-level
program at the same time.
 Single level programs allow the affiliate to make money for THEMSELVES
ONLY. You see, if an affiliate recruits another affiliate for single level 
programs, the ‘sponsor’ does not get any money as a result of his 
‘downline’s’ sale.
In other words, recruiting an affiliate only creates ANOTHER competitor! 
This is different for multi-level programs because the affiliate can take a 
cut from another affiliate so that vested interest is still there.
As a matter of fact, some network marketing companies even pay only a 
SINGLE level for the initial entry level sale of any new rep that is 
sponsored, so do NOT simply give away your sponsored downlines to the 
people in your group… you can lose a lot of money that way!
In the next sub-chapter, we will explore a number of popular network marketing 
compensation plans. 
You do not need to have an in-depth analysis but at least understand how the 
structure works so that you can maximize your network marketing groups.
Lamar Schoell LLC
- 23 -
Network Marketing Survival 2
Unilevel Plans
Unilevel plans are one of the oldest compensation plan structures in the world 
and their calculation is very straight forward. Basically you are able to sponsor as
many people as you can and you can draw commissions up to a certain level. In 
other words – unlimited width, limited depth.
A person in a Unilevel plan should focus on building as many team leaders as 
possible. Sponsor up to 4 to 5 people and focus on helping them build their 
groups (rather than building FOR them).
After all, there are only 5 days in a week, helping one at a time is enough to keep
one’s hands full. Don’t build too wide to the point that you can’t help your people 
and they are left all alone.
Lamar Schoell LLC
- 24 -
Network Marketing Survival 2
Stairstep Plans
The concept is similar to the Unilevel structure but the payment and building 
structure is a bit different. Basically you focus building your ‘rank’ by climbing the 
Stairstep ladder of success. You usually achieve this creating or helping your 
downline to create sales volume.
Once you achieve a certain rank, you can override commissions up to infinity 
levels.
Just like the Unilevel plan, you must focus on creating leaders in your 
FRONTLINE – those that you directly sponsor. Because it is worthless to have a 
large width of frontline when they are not producing anything.
Lamar Schoell LLC
- 25 -
Network Marketing Survival 2
Binary Plans
Binary plans and building structures are usually more complex because you are 
only allowed to have a width of 2 and place the people you sponsor under your 
downlines. In other words – 2 width, unlimited depth.
In a binary plan, you often have to balance both dies of your groups by ensuring 
that the volume produced on the left group is almost the same as the right group.
Placements of downline must always work towards balancing and you have to 
think not only about yourself, but for your downline as well.
Lamar Schoell LLC
- 26 -
Network Marketing Survival 2
The Australian Two-Up
  
Australian Two-up plans are a bit more complex but here is a simple explanation.
The FIRST TWO sales of your FRONTLINE (B) go directly to you as illustrated 
in the diagram on the left. But on the third (C) and subsequent sales, it goes to B.
Lamar Schoell LLC
- 27 -
Network Marketing Survival 2
However, the sales from the first two and their subsequent twos (as illustrated in 
the B1 group will always pass up two sales up back to A and NOT B) For your 
reference, the color of the sales will belong to the corresponding colors illustrated
above (e.g. B1, B3, B4 and B5 will go to A and C1, C2, C3, C4, C5 and C6 will 
pass up to B)
Practically speaking, this marketing plan should be built THIS way and no 
other way:
Because you need to give up two people to your upline, you must make sure you
leave your STRONGEST downlines to your upline.
People make the mistake by giving the weakest to their uplines because what 
they don’t realize is that if they drop out from the system, you will most probably 
not be able to draw commissions from your other groups because they require 
the first two to ‘activate’.
Network marketing is all about duplication – so you must teach the right culture in
your group by giving the two strongest downlines to your upline and duplicate it 
so that everyone will building a very solid network.
Lamar Schoell LLC
- 28 -
Network Marketing Survival 2
Matrix Plans
Matrix plans are often even more complex than the other plans above but 
basically you will need to fill a number of UNITS in a matrix cycle (consisting of a 
fixed width and depth – in the case above, it is a 2 by 2 matrix).
When a matrix is ‘filled’, you will be given a new account that you can use to build
a new matrix and earn more money.
Most matrix plans that I’ve seen usually turn up on illegal scams or High Yield 
Investment Programs (HYIP) or other shady programs. If the Matrix plans are too
complex and it doesn’t facilitate building a viable downline system, you need to 
consider building a business that is more long term.

Chapter 6: Prospecting Methods
Here are a couple of prospecting methods that you must be aware of if you want 
to survive in the network marketing jungle… after all having effective prospecting 
methods is your network marketing lifeline!
Cold Calling & Invitations
Cold calling (and going door-to-door) is one of the MOST INEFFECTIVE and 
DIFFICULT form of obsolete prospecting method in the 21st century. Some sales 
people might debate that this is still viable, but let’s be realistic…
 YOU don’t like to receive phone calls
 Cold calling has a lot of resistance and people turn their ears away if you 
are a stranger
 People don’t like being sold things that they don’t need
Lamar Schoell LLC
- 30 -
Network Marketing Survival 2
 They don’t even need to see YOU – a total stranger!
Invitations on the other hand might still work if it is done correctly. You can invite 
your friends to an event or a tea-party but make sure that your INTENTION is 
very clear when you invite him or her. People are not stupid and they can sense 
your intentions if you have promised them otherwise.
In other words, don’t trick them into coming to your network marketing 
prospecting meeting!
Classified Advertising & Google AdWords
One important thing about advertising is to ALWAYS go for direct response 
advertising. Do NOT burn your money on advertising that does NOT solicit direct 
response and a measurable way to calculate your expenditure, leads contacting 
you and conversion to sales!
When you advertise your opportunity on classified advertising, make sure you 
have a website or a phone number that they can contact you that MUST lead the
prospect to the next phase of your sales funnel.
Ad Impression  Direct Response/ Lead Capture  Build the relationship  
Pitch the right offer  Close sale or Follow up until the sale is closed.
The problem with people is that they dump all sorts of advertising without leading
to the second phase which is the direct response or lead capture phase. They 
think just because they leave a website or a phone number (like leaving name 
cards all over town) they will get a lot of people to sign up.
With Google AdWords, you must make sure you have a system that is designed 
to deal with those leads and execute the steps above.
Lamar Schoell LLC
- 31 -
Network Marketing Survival 2
Networking Swaps
In certain business networking circles, you are able to build a list of referrals for 
one another even if you are in a different line of work. There are Business 
networking organizations like BNI (which is one of the biggest networking 
organization in the world) are designed to facilitate this.
Of course, all this depends on the rapport and friendship between you and the 
other members.
Remember that must refer business to those other members and not just sit 
there and wait for people to give you leads.
Online Prospecting
There are many ways you can acquire prospects online without spending money 
on Google AdWords.
You can drop by people’s blogs, go to forums or build a mailing list of prospects 
in order to build relationships and meet new people.
Social networking sites like MySpace, Friendster, Facebook, MyBlogLog and 
many other web 2.0 sites are a great place to meet new people with similar 
interests and make friends with them.
You must be very careful of one thing, NEVER, NEVER EVER SPAM forums, 
blog comments or other people’s email. It is a very quick way to get a bad 
reputation or banned from those forums.

Chapter 7: Developing The Posture
Of A Leader
Posture Is Everything
One of the most important aspects of surviving in the network marketing world is 
to develop the ALPHA mentality in your business. This is very important because
nobody remembers who came in SECOND!
It is human nature to look towards a leader and if you are not the leader of your 
organization, you are most likely following someone else’s direction and you are 
not in charge of your business.
Bring a leader in network marketing requires you to prospect effectively. After all, 
you want to position yourself as an EXPERT and not as a PEDDLER!
Read this line very carefully:
Nobody who bought a drill actually wanted a drill.
Lamar Schoell LLC
- 33 -
Network Marketing Survival 2
They wanted a hole.
Therefore, if you want to sell drills, you should ADVERTISE information
about making holes – NOT information about drills!
– Perry Marshall
Remember, it is pointless to sell someone something they don’t want and appear
like a sleazy salesman in the process.
Ways To Develop The Winning Posture
Here are a few tips on how to develop the winning Posture:
 Dress sharply and ALWAYS be natural
 Don’t treat everyone around you as your prospect – the last thing you 
want to do is to appear desperate for their money
 EDUCATE people on the viability of using your product and become a 
living testimonial rather than pushing the products in their face
 Diversify your prospecting methods by going online

Invest in your education about the Network marketing Industry.


Network marketing is quite a challenging industry but the most important thing 
you must do is never to forget that you are the captain of your ship when things

Once you are certain you are back in the game, you must invest in a winning 
system and learn to take your business to the next level by using the right 
prospecting techniques and following the right team.

choosing the right company:
 Be aware of the changes in network marketing during the 21st century.
 Choose your network marketing company wisely and consider the factors 
such as the management team, the demand and the trend.
 Find the right people to work with – work together with your uplines, 
downlines, sidelines and even the company staff.
