SHOULD I ADMIT THAT I'M A "NEWBIE?"

Sure, I have to start somewhere!
It all started one evening about 3 months ago. I was on eBay and decided, just for fun, to enter the search words, "MLM Marketing." I had no idea that so many ads and banners would pop up. The only one that caught my eye and "hooked" me was the one on Magnetic Sponsoring. This is the one that drew me in like a "magnet".
I listened to the video on the capture page. The message made sense to me of how things have changed via the "internet revolution". I immediately filled out the opt-in fields and excitedly waited for my seven free boot camp videos. I received my videos, then ordered the MS book. I spent hours on the MS website learning about all the features and materials to help me learn more about becoming a better networker.
With that in mind, I knew I had to get the Black Belt Recruiting video series. So...I purchased the material and started my second journey of learning how to move from a "NEWBIE" to a more valued networker. Subsequently, I read all the materials and watched the videos over, and over, and over. That's when I realized that this "NEWBIE" had OTD! (Old Timers Disease)
Fortunately, I was bound and determined to keep on trucking. I spent on average 8-10 hours a day implementing the strategies identified in the MS material. I feel I have technically come a long way, but my "NEWBIE" status still stands..... with regards to being a valued member of any social networking community.
So, that was the beginning of my "NEWBIE" experience of becoming a networker on the internet. Frankly, I have learned that it is O.K. to admit that I am new to all of this, and that I will make mistakes that the "Seasoned" and more experienced marketers may find offensive. But that's alright! Why? Because they give me valuable guidance and feedback that helps me learn from my mistakes and allows me to grow as an individual.
AND THAT MY FRIENDS IS WHY I AM HERE AT THE BETTER NETWORKER.

LMAO Judy ODT - that's what

ODT - that's what it is. I never knew there was a name for my illness. Thank you.
You know what struck me about MS and being a 'newbie'. I'm not sure which page it's on (hangs head in shame because my copy is by my bedside and not my computer, and ODT prevents me from going upstairs to get it) but when Mike confessed to being " a newbie who was too dumb to quit" I knew this guy was right on my level!
Mike Dillard - creator of the number one lead generating system on the planet, mastermind behind the number one networking site on the planet, mentor to thousands - and he's just as dumb as me!!! (ok so he didn't have to contend with OTD)
By posting your own personal story up here, you've done a good job of helping other newbies see the light especially about working 8-10 hours a day. Many of them think 10 - 15 minutes is all it takes.
That's adding value - thanks.

Thanks Susan

You are a new expert.
Hi Judy,
You will find that compared to the 95% of people who fail in MLM you are already classed as an expert because you have found a system in Building On A Budget that works!
So don't be afraid to have an opinion. Anyone who is successful is always learning, so don't feel like you have know it all before you can be an expert.
All the best,
Dean.
Thanks Dean
