Mentoring for free is hands on step by step service designed to help people in whatever market they are in. Now the question is are you ready for the truth about network marketing? If McDonald's and Taco Bell has a proven system then would you follow it. Now let's say you take that system and tweek it to what ever market you are in. Do you think it has a better outlook on working. Yes!!!. Now, take in consideration experience. This is noted, if you help enough people get what they want and desire then your needs become second are met just by the pure aspect of giving. Not becoming religious on anyone but factual. Jer.29.11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Don't you dare let someone in your pocket until you read the whole story. For it is His Story. He said try him, for I will open the windows of heaven and pour out a Blessing on you, that you can not imagine. Have a Blessed Day!!!

I love how everone that responds to this and other threads about MFF has an opinion.

Basicaly i see 2 groups.

Those that are in the company and those that are not. It seems to me that both groups say the same things over and over.

At this point I think I have expressed my ... Feelings? towards MFF.
So, That being said, I do not wish to continue to post on these threads. If there are more then they ought not be more then links back to this thread.

I am going to end by restating what someone else has said already in this thread.

If you were to take a new prospect in to this training with the goa of having him join your company when he was done the training. How do you think he is going to respond to you after being told there is only one 5 Pillar company and you NEED a 5 pillar company for success.
It is not hard to see, If you are not in MFF and it is the only 5 pillar company... How is all the training in the world gonna help you reach people that are being taught you are not a good company?

True.

P.S - I still hold that I would gladly accept former members of MFF to join the team I am on in any MLM. Anyone that is that commited to a "fail" way of doing business could be taught ethical way to do business and I think they could be a real success.

I would like to extend my apologies for anyone that may have had poor experiences with MFF, I have not had any negative experiences with this. I think it is an amazing program. I have been in similar programs that cost $50+/mo and I had to jet to places for live training once a month at a minimum of $1000/ea for the tools and services that Mentoring for Free offers to me to build my business. I personally work with people from all businesses, some in Mentoring for Free may not, however that is not the overwhelming majority that are like that either. I just want to help as many people as possible to think for themselves and be more conscious consumers. I came to this point after conducting myself ignorantly and not knowing how to evaluate my company, I would just believe whatever people told me, thus I joined 26 companies over 19 years time and had a little success with one company, but could never reach my monthly financial goal that I wanted to. However, I have learned the skill to think for myself and because of that, I have been able to reach the success that I need to support my family during these tough times. While there are a lot of training calls, they are NOT mandatory, they are just available resources. I am only writing this to bring awareness that there is a good training program available that could be the one thing that could make the difference in whether you succeed or continue to be frustrated. Thank you all for participating in this discussion, it really helps me to not conduct myself like whoever it was that the people that have not had a good experience conducted themselves. I truly do want to help people succeed in whatever business is their choice. To Your Success, Roberta Boteler http://roberta.successin10steps.com/?mad=31669

Has nobody in MFF told you yet that "You need 1667 people to make $10K a month" or had this viewpoint pointed out to you "(Bas) We know an Isagenix rep who has never been paid and met another who generated $22K in revenue but did not qualify for a check." There are people full time searching through every other company to find what's wrong with it. The above is the party line about Isogenix so if you haven't heard it yet - you will and then you'll be gently steered towards the "perfect" company.
Be discriminatory what you take from MFF and definitely don't take your downline there as they will leave to go to the only "true" company as the "truth is the truth is the truth" you know.
To your success in Isogenix !

Hi Joyce,
I know that my profile still says I'm in Isagenix, but that is old. I have changed it on my profile, but don't know why it is still listed as my company. Isagenix has an amazing product, I was able to lose 60 lbs in 6 months and 12 days, but you are right it does take A LOT of people in your organization to make a decent living. I appreciate your observation, but I had actually realized that Isagenix wasn't a company I would build my business with, but again, I would recommend their products in a heartbeat. In fact I am still a preferred customer so I can get the product at wholesale.
Take care,
Roberta

Roberta, well done.
You have stood your ground with great dignity. I think that it is people like you that make this board (and this industry) what it is. Of course it takes all kinds to make a success of this type of business and it would appear that you have found your niche and it suits you. Thats great. I commend you for that and I am pleased for you. Obviously some people have found that this particular company was not for them and they have moved on to what they consider to be more suited to their style and pace. To each his own.
Roberta, if you are happy there then just keep on doing what you are doing. It is encouraging that those that were not suited for this particular company continued to persevere and they also found their various niches. It just goes to show that there is hope for people that try and keep on trying and do not give up, kind regards, Nemo.

Gosh Jim,

Looks like if someone is against MFF they are ok and you thank them for saving your time.

"I was approached by someone from MFF and I guessed right away that everthing about them was set to teach you they were the best MLM ever. So, i told him no thanks... Then I get an Email from a nice gentelman talking about his company being a mentoring company that has tried 100's of MLM and offeres advice to get past the pitfalls. He was also saying he was willing to offer me mentorship for free so he could use me to post about once I was a success. In exchange I was not to join an MLM till after the training. So off we went down the road and one of the first steps was going to this MFF site and listening to this book... So, I was thinking.. "Well, there must be some vaule in the book and I can sort it out as long as know they want me to join them and are gonna point everything to tell me I should. Well then I tried to listen to the book... 28 min of this dude droning on and on about How he HAD to write this book and offering almost no content of value and If they had condenced it you could have shortened it to 3 min or less... So, I stoped going and listening and forgot about MFF. Before long I got an email, Yet again it was someone new from MFF and he was offering me some friendly advice... He was careful never to respond to any emails and always send new ones. After 2-3 emails back and forth he had managed to ignore all my questions and told me what they were realy about.."

But when Roberta said they teach you "How to think not what to think" you thought she was arrogant for an earlier statement. Are you really interested in learning about MFF or just trying to smear a system that Has helped many people.

I understand that not everyone is going to like MFF. But what you learn about companies and compensation plans is priceless information. I am proud to say I am in MFF and I do help people everyday. I do not care if they join me in my company or just want help to get their business going. When they use MFF the complete the 5 pillars if their company has the other 4.

Why don't you download the book and read it. It is a fast read and fun to read also. If you don't think it is any good then move on. If you have questions call anyone in MFF or feel free to e-mail anyone in MFF and you will get the answer to your question.

I hope I have not come across as arrogant and that you will check it out for yourself.

Jim,
Thank you for your kind words, they are much appreciated. I wish you well in all your endeavors. If you need help building your business, let me know. I will help in any way I can.... and I won't push my company on you at all. I just want to share what I have learned because the lessons have been invaluable to me.
Take care,

The words you use impacts who you attract.

If you're attracting prospects looking for something for nothing guess what you'll end up with?

A team who does nothing but complains to you that they didn't get anything.

To make money, associate with value that you pay for, so you can ask for the same in return.
