My Harvest America somehow got on your radar as a company that is worth looking at so you can make additional money from home, a possible career change, or to just save money on groceries. Because I know your time is valuable this blog posting will answer the following questions for you:

What is it?
Is it a scam?
How much is it?
How do you make money?
What’s the best way to grow the business?
What are the pros and cons?

I can not answer if you will make money or not. That is completely up to you no matter what company you join. I can’t answer if this is a good fit for you. You have to make an educated decision on that.

1. What is My Harvest America?

This company allows you to save money on name brand groceries nationwide. You shop online (U.S only) and it gets delivered to your door for free. There are over 10,000 national name brand items at a guaranteed low price. My Harvest America says that people will save both money and time with their program.

2. Is My Harvest America a scam?

My Harvest America is not a scam. Period point blank. There’s nothing more to expound on here.

3. How much does it cost?

There are two programs you can sign up for: Shopper and Super Shopper. If you are a business builder in my opinion Super Shoper is the only option you should look at.

The annual fee is $39.95. Shopper monthly fee is $29.95. Super Shopper monthly fee is $79.90. With your intial sign up you pay for the annual fee AND the 1st monthly fee. After that month you just pay for the monthly fee.

What’s the difference between the two?
The major difference is the cost per month ALSO with the super shopper majority of your income comes from the matching bonuses. Not only that but as a shopper you only get access to the grocery store. As a super shopper you get that PLUS access to discounts to over 250,000 retailers. That is why I say IF YOU ARE SERIOUS at growing your business that is the only option for you, especially at this ridiculously low startup cost.

4. How do you make money?

The best way to explain this is for you to look at the pictures below. Now I’m only showing you the Super Shopper charts because that’s the best way to make money with this company. It is a 3×8 Matrix payout.

My Harvest America Compensation Plan (The following is directly from MyHarvestAmerica.com website)

How The Matching Bonuses Work

The matrix is a 3×8.
This means there are 3 positions on your first level.
9 Positions on your second level.
27 positions on your third level.

81 positions on your fourth level.
243 positions on your fifth level.
729 positions on your sixth level.
2187 positions on your seventh level.
6561 positions on your eight level.
For a total of 9840 positions.

As you sponsor new Reps they will start to fill the above positions.
If you sponsor 4 Reps personally, 3 would go on your first level and 1 would spill down to your second level in the matrix. As everyone on your team sponsors new Reps, they will fall into the levels that are open and spill to the next level when each level fills.This means your personal Reps and your teams personal Reps could land on any available level in the matrix that has not filled yet.

The Computer pays matching bonuses on all of your personally sponsored Reps and all of their personally sponsored Reps of 10% 5 Generations deep of Sponsorship on the Shoppers Matrix and 20% 5 Generations deep of Sponsorship on the Super Shoppers Matrix.

No matter what level your personally sponsored Reps fall in the matrix, they are still considered 1st Generation to you on the matching bonuses.
When your personally sponsored Reps sponsor their new Reps, no matter what level in the matrix they land, the computer still records them as your 2nd Generationl for the matching bonuses.
This happens the same for all of their new Reps for 5 Generations deep of Sponsorship.

Example:
Let’s say you personally sponsored 20 new Reps. No matter where they fall in any level of your matrix they are still your 1st Generation for matching bonuses.
Let’s say your 20 personally sponsored Reps sponsored 5 new Reps each for a total of 100 new Reps. No matter where they fall in any level of your matrix they are still your 2nd Generationl for matching bonuses.

As you can see, you could have 100’s or thousands of Reps you can make matching bonuses on in the 5 Generations of Reps sponsoring Reps no matter what level they fall on in the matrix.

In order to be qualified to earn commissions on the Shoppers Matrix,
you must be on a $29.95 Shoppers Matrix Monthly Subscription

In order to be qualified to earn commissions on the Super Shoppers Matrix,
you must be on the $29.95 Shoppers Matrix Monthly Subscription and
the $49.95 Super Shoppers Matrix Monthly Subscription.

5. What is the most effective way to grow your My Harvest America business?

Option A
On their website they instruct you to:
- watch the movie
- sign up
- make your prospect list
- send them to your website
- tell them to watch the movie

I assume most people looking at My Harvest America have been with another network marketing company in the past. So you know the frustration, pain, hassle, and anxieties from building your business this way. If you have never been in network marketing before then you are at an advantage because you never experienced that and don’t have any emotional scars. Now in the past this approach worked more effectively. My professional advice to you is to look at Option B below.

Option B
- leverage your time by putting your business in front of thousands daily without you having to be there
- allow a system to do most of the sifting, sorting, and explaining for you
- develop a skill set so whether you join My Harvest America or not you know how to market anything, to anybody, anywhere; new skill set = more money
- talk to people that are already interested in what you are doing; literally never face rejection again

6. Pros and Cons of My Harvest America
Pros
- save money on name brand groceries
- make money
- program anybody can join b/c of the low pricing if they want to

Cons
- most people do not change their shopping habits even if they can save money
- honestly speaking there is no emotional appeal with this product
- no type of internet marketing training provided which means the failure rate of 97% will still be in effect

Now the ball is in your court. It’s up to you to make a decision if My Harvest America is a good fit for you or not. When making this decision never let ANYONE pressure you into joining NO MATTER what company it is.

If you are a SERIOUS ENTREPRENEUR and
- want to drastically increase your chances of success
- willing to be the student and do whatever (legally and morally) it takes to be a top earner
- learn how to use the internet as a tool to do most of the heavy lifting in your business

Then click here to see how I recommend exploding your My Harvest America business.

MLM Downline Building Formula: 3 Things That Will Make You Money

When it comes to building a MLM downline there are only 3 things that you deserve to master in order to make an obscene amount of money. Some may or may not agree with me and that is perfectly fine. I’ve adopted the new phrase to my life. You be right and I’ll be rich. What I am teaching you here is something that I’ve learned from some of the greatest online marketers.

Before you keep reading watch this short video.

Now back to the article……

What you are about to learn will only work effectively if you have an online sales and marketing system in place.

Let’s go ahead and dive into the MLM training so I can show you how to make some dinero.

MLM Downline Building Formula #1: Drive Traffic

are you driving traffic too? Your capture page that promotes you as a leader and puts the prospects into your online sales and marketing system. Not all traffic is created equal however. It does you absolutely no good if you get 10,000 visitors a day but only 200 are interested in what you are talking about. To avoid this when ever you post an ad, write an article, make videos, use Facebook marketing, etc make sure that you know who your target market is.

Know what ticks them off, why they struggle, what they are looking for, the language they use, the pains they have, where they hang out, etc. If you’ve had struggles building a MLM downline before then remember how you felt. The more personal and transparent you can be when marketing and driving traffic the better results you will get.

Understand also that when it comes to driving traffic you need a large amount going to your capture page and opting in each and every day. More on that below.

MLM Downline Building Formula #2: Convert Traffic

There are several effective ways you can convert your leads into customers after they have opted into your capture page. I will gloss over a few examples here just to give you an idea.

1. Include a link to your blog at the bottom of each auto responder message in your signature section. Make sure that your blog is well put together and doesn’t look cheap. You don’t have to pay anyone to do it professionally just make sure it doesn’t look like an old beat up Yugo. Have videos, lifestyle pictures, and testimonials about yourself plastered all over your blog.

2. When leads opt in to your site take their email address and search for them on Facebook. Then add them as a friend. Make usre you send them a little message that they opted in your site and you want to connect with them on a more personal level. They will be floored that you took the time to do this.

3. Always test and track different things on your sites and in your marketing. Do a little at a time not anything drastic. You may change a headline here, colors there, etc. I’m not going to go into detail here on this because this can be another article by itself. Please understand though that making a little change can increase your conversions by 20% which is HUGE in this industry.

MLM Downline Building Formula #3: Mentor Team

Noticed it says mentor, NOT: baby sit, beg, or do everything for them. It is not your job as a leader to struggle for your team but it is your job to let them know the struggle is worthwhile. Read that again and let it sink in. The best way you can mentor your team is by being the best leader you can be.

When a MLM downline member comes to you with a problem just act like an usher at a concert and point them into the right direction with your flashlight. You can not be a master problem solver for them. Its kinda like letting them struggle in the water but still offering a life preserve. They have to figure it out themselves. As you lead like this you are fostering a strong team so hang in there.

I’ve outlined a way for you to build a huge MLM downline.  I personally however have chosen to throw in the towel on trying to sponsor thousands of distributors. My focus is now on sponsoring quality over quantity. To see how you can actually have CEO type income by sponsoring 4 people a month and hang up building a huge MLM downline  put in your name, email address and phone number below.

Baby crying

Today I had the priviledge of helping a 77 year old gentleman. He came into get 2 phones for him and his wife. When he got out the car I noticed he used a cane to walk with. After conversing with the gentleman he began to tell me that he couldn’t stand for a long time because he had arthiritis.

Not only that but he was dealing with his bout with cancer. After the new year he said he will be back to normal. 1. He said to me that you gotta fight no matter what. If you’re not fighting you are dying.

WOW! At that moment I knew I was going to learn quite a bit from this customer.

He proceeded to tell me that he has been a lawyer for 54 years. He’s enjoyed his time doing what he loves and still works from time to time when he feels like it. The customer then asked me had I made working at AT&T my career. I expressed to him that I’ve been here 2 years. In my head I was thinking 2 years too long.

2. He then told me if you are not happy doing what you are doing do something that you like. Life is too short not to enjoy it.

I wanted to say AMEN brother preach!!! That is why I am working relentlessly to get up out of here. More on that later.

I told the customer after the sale that I listened to every word he shared with me and I am acting on them. I told him the two main points that I learned which I shared above.

This is where the story gets more inspirational. He told me that his dad had a saying. “Deal with the hand God dealt you.”

His dad had polio since he was four. He was crippled on one side of his body. Over time his leg that was once crippled started to work good but the arm never recovered.

His dad’s parents lived on a farm and thought since he was crippled that he would never amount to anything. So they never bothered to enroll him into school or anything.

Over the course of life his dad taught himself how to work on cars, had a good life, and made a decent living.

When my customer was a kid he like any other kid would go cry to his father when things didn’t go right, got hurt, or someone was picking on him. His dad would always ask him SO WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?

He told me that he thought his dad was non compassionate bastard. That was until he grew up and realized what his father was instilling in him. My customer told me that his dad lived in a way that he never realized he really only had one arm.

All this made me think about how so many people jump into the internet, network marketing, and or MLM industry with hopes of achieving success. Most come into it with a $10-$15 mentality thinking if they just work hard enough that they will soon see success. Unfortunately the masses don’t realize they work hard on the WRONG things.

TRAJEDY…….

When things don’t happen right away they are ready to quit and throw in the towel. These are the common complaints: the leads aren’t coming in, I don’t understand this whole keyword research, I can’t ever get anyone to try my products, my sponsor is not there for me, I’m too old to learn how to use the computer to market, my ads aren’t being seen, I can’t get help, I’m not technical savvy, this is too hard, why does it cost so much money.

SO WHAT? WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?

Wake up and stop complaining. If it were easy to make million dollars then everyone would do it. We have to take what comes with the territory. Its time to become solution focused.

If you have a problem in your business SO WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?

No leads are coming in….SO WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?

Taking you longer to reach your goals……So WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?

If there is ever any CHALLENGE in your life always focus on finding a solution to your challenge. Never moan, complain, or whine.

Don’t allow people like that to be around you as well.

This 77 year old guy inspired me to do more and take life by the horns……what about you?

Let’s make things happen,
Adrian

Mastering the skill of MLM network marketing lead generating can be one of the most frustrating but yet rewarding things in life. We all know the reasons why so many distributors in MLM companies are failing. It’s all due to their inability to market. Instead of branding themselves they ignorantly push their company, products, comp plan, management team, or pre launch status on individuals. Looking back hindsight this was not the best strategy for me (I’ve been there) nor for you.

Like so many others I ventured online almost 3 years ago to see if anything else was better. That’s when I heard about Mike Dillard and how I can generate my own mlm network marketing leads for free. I didn’t do anything until March 2008 however. That is when I got back into the network marketing world and decided to do everything online. My biggest struggle in life was learning how to master this one skill set.

That is why I want to share with you 3 Levels of Mastery that one must go through in order to be an expert at MLM network marketing lead generating.

1. Cognitive of understanding
This is the level where you have a basic understanding of what is going on. You go through the many steps that you are taught so that you can eventually get the end result. It is at this stage where most people quit and resort back to building their MLM business the traditional way. The reason why so many quit is because they don’t give it enough time to build momentum. Since they don’t get instant gratification they throw in the towel and say that internet thing just doesn’t work.

2. Emotional
At this level in MLM network marketing lead generating you get emotionally attached to your results. You start to believe that this can actually work. You begin to see the bigger picture. Because of this you will find people on an emotional roller coaster which can be dangerous. At this stage in the game people tend to get more involved or better yet take massive action only because they are seeing results now.

3. Don’t think about it it becomes who you are
This stage is the peak of mastering MLM network marketing lead generating. You no longer have to think about what you are doing, where you are placing ads, how you look in a video. It just becomes who you are. It is so natural you can do it in your sleep. This is the level that you should strive to get too because you reap the biggest harvest at this stage. At this point you realize all three stages you went through was well worth it.

Sad to say only 3% of internet network marketers reach this point in their career. The other 97% fall off in between stage 1 and 2. In order to see change in your life you have to change. Do something different. Go out on a limb because that is where the fruit is. Stick with mastering this skill because once you do, you can write your own check no matter what business you decide to do.

There is a recession going on in peoples MLM home business opportunity that has nothing to do with the current economy. This recession per se has been going on since the new kid on the block came on the scene. You used to be able to follow a ’simple formula’ to get a huge downline in whatever MLM opportunity you were in. But not anymore. It is taking more hard work and effort just to build an organization of a few hundred people.

If you blink they could be gone in a minute to the next big MLM home business opportunity that’s currently in pre-launch. So who is the new kid on the block? Why is it causing such an uproar in countless home based business opportunities? Will things ever go back to how they used to be in network marketing? A resounding NO will suffice. The internet has changed the way network marketing is being done. If you want to stay the traditional route then you will see the effects of a recession in your commission checks.

The reason why so many network marketers are getting small checks is because we live in the information age now. Anything that anybody wants to know about a particular company, product, leader, comp plan, etc can be found on the net. This means if your MLM home business opportunity is not what they are looking for after they do their own reviews then bye bye bye. That is why its so easy for someone to have a huge downline one day and the next day its gone.

People tend to have the mentality that the grass is always greener on the other side. So they leave and start a career of jumping from company to company thinking the new product, comp plan, of company being new will guarantee them success. I used to think the same way, need I say I was naive. It is ignorance for anyone to believe that.

The simple answer for this problem is to learn how to brand yourself first and not your MLM home business opportunity. Learn how to master MLM marketing online. People only want to know what can you do for them and where you will lead them. If you can’t show anyone your value you are dead in the water. It has been said before but is worth repeating.People only do business with those that they like, love, and trust.

The long answer is that there are actual pillars of success that must be in place to stop the recession in your network marketing business. They are as follow.
1. Learn how to brand yourself
2. Learn how to market online
3. Use a proven online sales and marketing system to drive targeted traffic through
4. Market a product that is extremely valuable, in high demand, and pays HIGH commissions with residuals on the backend

If you can have these 4 pillars in place then you are well on your way to stopping the recession with your MLM checks. Now click here to see the only alternative to an MLM home business opportunity that I recommend that has all 4 components.
