Ann Sieg & Mike Dillard- are These Opportunists or Renegade Network Marketers?

I discovered Mike Dillard And Ann Sieg on The Internet and I am not sure how. I found myself watching old smooth talking Mike on a video. The next thing I knew I was signing up for his members only website. The same day, I found myself reading Ann Sieg's sales letter for her ebook, "The Renegade Network Marketer."The next thing I knew I was reading it! Talk about getting caught in a "web" of content!

They Have An Appealing Message For Internet Network Marketers

Both Mike and Ann are veterans of the network marketing industry. According to them, they both struggled to succeed, particularly when they first started. The reason they struggled involved an inability to succeed using "old school" mlm marketing methods. These methods include calling leads, trying to recruit friends and family, the "3 foot rule", etc. etc. These methods are ineffective because many of these people are not prospects for an mlm business. Trying to recruit them is essentially a waste of time and leads to constant rejection. In network marketing, constant rejection correlates to high attrition. VOILA! Along comes Ann Sieg and Mike Dillard with the audacity to suggest that one should only try and recruit people who want to be recruited. What a concept.

Attraction Marketing And Web 2.0- What Is The Connection?

Actually, with attraction marketing, this method of permission based recruitment is taken one step further. Both Magnetic Sponsoring And The Renegade System train students to leverage the power of marketing on the Internet to attract prospects to their businesses.. Involvement with social networking sites is a key component of attraction marketing. The ability to "socialize" on sites such as Facebook and MySpace, allow network marketers to, well.... network!

So What Do Ann Sieg, Mike Dillard, & Eben Pagan Have In Common?

If you guessed that Mike Dillard and Ann Sieg are students of Eben Pagan, you win!

The growth of the Web 2.0 community was a fantastic opportunity to create a "brand" of more "social" network marketing. And to create controversy with a book called "The Renegade Network Marketer", generated great interest all across the mlm world! Controversy is one of the most effective means of creating "word of mouth" advertising. In this case, it is actually "word" of computer advertising, and it has a viral effect across the Net.

In Conclusion....

An opportunist is somebody who recognizes an opportunity and takes advantage of it. Mike Dillard and Ann Sieg certainly fit that definition. At this point, it might be more accurate to call them Internet marketers, as opposed to network marketers. I am not sure how much involvement both have in network marketing opportunities. Mike is involved with the mlm company, "Carbon Copy Pro." FREE attraction marketing training can be had at Renegade University.
