John Piro

For over 25 years I stayed away from MLM's because I did not like what they did to my relationships with others. I quickly became a member of the NFL (No Friends/Family Left) and realized I couldn't continue. However with the development of the web 2.0 technologies this is not an issue any longer for any of us.

In April of 2006 I was sent my 1st video e-mail and felt forced to get back involved. Video E-Mail was revolutionary! I couldn't miss this opportunity! I experienced some immediate success but the 'old school of marketing/selling/promoting it wasn't producing the results I felt I should be having with a product like this. I mean to be able to broadcast LIVE to the world for pennies a day blew me away! I felt everyone would jump on this bandwagon. But the funny thing I found is people didn't feel the same way I did. This puzzled me. I knew there had to be a better way to approach this business rather than talking to everyone I met and turning every conversation I had into a 'sales pitch'. 

Then one day I was at a friend's house and she was playing on Myspace and I asked what she was doing. She said she was 'playing'. My response was 'what with little boys'? She said "ya know, you should take a look at this cuz with everything you are doing with your computer businesses you might be able to do well on this site cuz there's alot of people on here selling stuff".

 I looked over her shoulder and saw 170M people were on Myspace!!! OMG! I immediately created my profile and started to think how in the world was I going to market myself on this site. I started dreaming and thinking what kind of system or process I could develop. And then there it was....my answer right there on my HelloWorld bulletion board. I was invited to join a fellow affiliate on his journey to diamond. I immediately filled out his capture page and the next day I received a call and explained to me what he was doing to promote himself using the web 2.0 technologies (i.e. video & social networks). I found the answer I was trying to dream up myself!! Here was the blueprint which was eventually going to lead me to my 'computer business' success. I immediately joined DK's MLM GoldMine mentorship.

This mentorship exposed me to Mike's Magnetic Sponsoring system:

and just starting to read his course. MK & DK are the ones who are responsible for me knowing that I was finally on the right track and had found my answers. Now it was just a matter of implementing what I've learned and being taught. It's working for everyone else who employs their ideas. Why not me. I couldn't miss!

I would be remiss if I didn't pay tribute to 2 gentleman who gave me their hearts & souls in educating me in how to market online. Jeremy Leuchtag taught me how to dominate Page 1 with video & Mark Stevens shared his expertise in all other aspects how to market online! I met Mark in August '07 (shortly after meeting Jeremy) and I have to tell you both these men were 'Goldmines' of information. Mark taught me techniques in how to place banners, post comments, imbed content, etc to draw others to my websites that have given me the confidence to know when I couple what he was teaching me with Jeremy, Dennis & Mike's branding approaches there was no way I could not be successful. I also read a host of free E-Books and anything else which would educate me in what I need to do to be successful online. The biggest challenge I was faced with was "Information Overload"! It seemed everyone had something to offer & with the immediate access to one another Skype enabled I lived in overload mode.

Now that I have been on this campus for 6 years my suggestion to a newbie would be to find that one person you identify with and follow what they tell you to do & DO IT! The challenge is to know who to trust because today "everyone" is a mentor. The important aspect is to GET STARTED on your road to success & don't ever wonder if it will ever work - because there is no doubt it will. Allow yourself the time to focus, absorb, & reflect. Keep your Golden Blinders on. Do your best to not allow yourself to get side tracked. The challenge I had was so many self proclaimed gurus had so much success that they didn't have time for anyone. The best advice I can give the new marketer is find the person willing & able to invest in you and talk to you at your level. Then when you are ready your mentor will direct you to your next level mentor who will continue your advancement. The trick is to not squander your money listening to everyone. Pay the respect to your mentor who invests in you!
