452: The #1 Reason Why People Fail in Network Marketing
Your Virtual Upline Podcast
Feeling stuck or frustrated in your network marketing business? Watching your team struggle and wondering if you’re doing something wrong? You’re not alone. I recently had a conversation with a past client, friend, and fellow leader who’s been feeling the exact same way. In this episode, I’m diving into a problem that’s plaguing in our industry: mismanaged expectations. We have a lot of unrealistic expectations, which are often fueled by hype marketing like I talked about in the . When we measure our success by the wrong metrics or fail to celebrate the progress we have made, we risk...

451: Are You Marketing Your Business With Heart or Hype?
Your Virtual Upline Podcast
Let’s be real: social media is packed right now with what I like to call “hype marketing.” You know the posts—“biggest launch in the history of network marketing,” “a compensation plan like nothing you’ve ever seen.” It’s constant. But here’s the truth: these tactics aren’t just overused; they’re actually driving people away and undermining your business’s credibility. If you’ve been caught up in this approach—maybe because it’s what’s being taught or you’re following what everyone else is doing—I want you to know that it’s ok and you can start doing...

450: Lessons to be Learned From Beachbody
Your Virtual Upline Podcast
As you may have heard, recently Beachbody was the latest company to announce that they are moving away from their current business model to affiliate only, and essentially eliminating the incomes of all of the leaders and coaches that have built businesses with them over the years. Today, I want to use Beachbody as an important case study of what we are seeing happening across the profession today, and ultimately, what’s wrong with our profession today. In this episode, you’ll hear what this situation means for our profession, and I share the key lessons that we can pull from it that...

info_outlineToday I want to talk about what is happening right now with SEINT, a popular company in our space and one that I’ve worked extensively with. If you haven’t heard already, SEINT just announced that they are changing their compensation model to a pure affiliate model, which means that SEINT will be getting rid of the team building side and focus solely on product sales.
This is a big deal and sad news for our profession, and I want to share my thoughts on it because as a company, it’s our mission to elevate the standards in this space. Not only by the way that all of us practice business, but also to hold the companies accountable by having some of the difficult conversions that need to be had, so we can educate you in what to look for in the companies that you align with.
Although people are seeing this as a sign that our industry is falling apart, you’ll see why I think this could not be further from the truth. With the fear and uncertainty out there, I’ve spent the last few days gathering my thoughts so that I can speak to you about what is happening, and I went live to do that.
Today, I’m re-sharing that livestream that I did here on the podcast. The big message I want to bring to the SEINT artists who are feeling afraid is that I’ve been through this situation myself twice in my career, and we’re here to support you. Whether you’re in SEINT or not, if you’re in this profession and serious about building a future in it, this is going to be a very important message for you to hear today.
