Marketing

It is hard to believe that even with all of the penalties that could be imposed, a few marketers are still using and promoting Auto-Dialers! Over the past week I've received several calls from individuals using the dreaded auto-dialer.

You opt out of the system and they still keep calling, it's just amazing that some people either have not gotten the word yet or simply do not care. I have had one guy (we'll call him Bob, yes that's his real first name) call no less than 3 different times in the past two days...

...Lets see at $16,000 per call that is adding up very quickly. I had written about this on my network marketing blog, the post was titled "FTC New Rules On Robocalls
Will it Affect You."

Now he did say that he had visited my website and like my business but he had a question! We all know that story, he never really visited the website, this is simply a technique used to get you to call back...

...Now how Lame is that technique?

Smart marketers would at least tell you something about the site, what they like, what questions they may have. Yet, it just goes to show that had this individual spent anytime at all at LeadersClub he would have known that this approach does not work in network marketing!

When, you stop and think that this guy is now on the hook for possibly $48,000.00 in fines from the FTC he'd better hope that it is worth it. It really is sad that you have a few individuals and companies that ruin it for the rest of us.

By ruin I'm talking about creating a negative perception about what we do as network marketers. Now the real question is should I forward this information to the FTC, I've already left a message after the first call he made and still he called twice after that...

... Decisions, Decisions!
