Put your time and effort into things that are profitable not just things you like to do. Chris Doyle delivered this message during the Fortune Hi-Tech Marketing Spring Fling 2009 when he was speaking about how you should approach your Fortune business as a business. We all know that a real business takes time and you need to work at it every day. No one should join FHTM, or any other MLM, with the expectation of being rich overnight. Like all network marketing, you are starting your own business using the system/products of that MLM. In the case of FHTM, the back office, training support, tools, services, etc. are given to you on a platter, so to speak, reputedly the best in the industry. But your own business needs one more thing, YOU. You control how much time you spend on FHTM. You need to provide leadership for the team you are developing but first you must recruit. To avoid that, many new FHTM reps focus only on the things they don’t like about the program. Or they spend days and weeks ‘learning’ the program. Scott Aguilar often says “It’s better to be ignorance on fire than knowledge on ice.” Recruiting techniques should become second nature to the new rep. FHTM has an excellent duplicable formula that can be put in place and used over and over by FHTM reps. And it is extremely successful. This is why it is so valuable for reps to attend meetings. FHTM reps should take every opportunity to learn from the top earners like Joel McNinch, Ruel Morton, Chris Doyle, Todd Rowland, Pastor Jerry Brown, Gilbert Anderson, Bob Decant, JoAnne McMahon, Steve Jordan, Terry and Sandi Walker, Roger McKay or Sheri Winter. And what would be better than to learn from a man who consistently earned a million dollars a month, the founder of Fortune Hi-Tech Marketing, Paul Orberson.
