HI Jason, this is Jose from two worlds “Tijuana/San Diego”, and to be honest every time I read what you have for us is great. And the reason to say this is that as a newbie myself on this MLM arena, anything I can grab from you and from all this awsome people making comments is just greeeeeat, really. So Keep up the good work and the good stuff. Thanks, Blessings.

His sponsor’s team was 83% so I was just saying stats don’t really mean anything without a reference point. The company had only been around 6 months.

Most people have a 100% retention rate over a 1 day period.

Dee,

I even read an article that claimed
internet interaction makes people
lonelier than they would be without
interaction at all.

I hope not!

I’ve met a lot of really cool people around
here too.

I’m always excited to see new comments
even though I get much more than I used to.

Lots of awesome people here.

Justin,

93% That’s crazy.

I would like to see how that goes over
time.

Hi Jason,

Great post as usual and a topic that us “old timers” are very familiar with. I just commented on a thread yesterday in response to a woman bemoaning the warm & fuzzy friendship desires of her down line.
I TOTALLY agree with you that these people are our family & our business partners. I think many of them want (need) hand holding for a while. If there weren’t people that did that for me in the early days decades ago I wouldn’t be here (in this networking arena).

Funny that with all this modern technology we are more removed from personal relatedness than ever before. That is why I like coming here—to your blog. We haven’t met but your= feel like a friend and I love reading everyone’s comments. Sometimes I make myself wait til later in the day to come for a visit—-delayed gratification ya kno.

Attrition is one of the thorns on the rose. As long as we have put our all into building solid business relationships we can rest assured that we have made the world (business & personal) a better place.

I was listening to a presentation a few weeks ago that was talking about 93% retention rate in his team – but he’d only been in the company 3 months.

If someone could come up with industry wide stats, I probably wouldn’t believe any of them anyway.

“I still think you and Monique have one of the coolest
blogs around.”

Thanks, Jason — it means a lot coming from you!

“I’ve noticed the same thing about old-schoolers. They love their
products to the extreme. It’s hard to keep your head on your
shoulders when somebody is so enthusiastic about what they
do.”

Yes! The hype is a turn-off — that’s why we got out of the old-school arena.

But there are still lessons to be learned from them, if only from a distance.

Trying to talk to the “old-schoolers” can be like talking to a robot who keeps repeating the same thing over and over –

“Our company is the greatest, our products are the greatest, make a list of 10 friends and family and hard-sell them each day…”

BLAH!
