I found a better way and fired my sponsor

By John Wallen

I love being a part of a work at home opportunity. I have no doubt it's one of the best industries to belong to. Affiliate opportunities are plentiful with a lot of great companies, but what always seems to strike me as strange is, that only a very small percentage of net workers actually get to a full time level.

Now of course there are those that join opportunities, and let them fall by the wayside, or treat them like a hobby. But I'm referring to those that focus, and put in the time doing what their sponsor or up line is teaching, and never get the results that I know are possible.

I fell into that last category myself, so one morning I woke up and fired my sponsor! No, I didn't call him up and exactly tell him that. I just stopped doing everything he had taught me. Because for almost a full year I had hardly any success in my business with what he was recommending.

I kept sitting in on training seminars that are online, with as many companies I could find that were offering this for free. I believe the more I learn about this industry, there might be one good idea that can be put into motion to try and get some good results for my business.

But it was crazy to keep duplicating things that don't work. I don't even make phone calls to purchased leads anymore. Why waste my time on things that have given me terrible results, It doesn't make sense.

As I said before, looking for new information and learning new things about this industry, I think is important. So I like to look through different ezines, and that's when I found something that blows the old school ways out of the water, and breathed new life into my business, big time!

If your dealing with this kind of failure, and keep getting told by your upline to keep at it, you'll get better it's just a matter of time. You might want to do what I did (fire them) an move on and put this system that has been working great for me to use in your business. - 16738
