Mark Yarnell is without a doubt one of the most influential Network Marketers that has ever lived, impacting thousands of people around the world with his controversial trainings.  Let me share some insights that I learned in a recent question and answer session with this Network Marketing legend.

Mark Yarnell is the bestselling author of “Your First Year In Network Marketing”, “Self Wealth”, and several others that have been classics in the sphere of the Multi Level Marketing profession.  Recently, I had the opportunity to interview with Mark and ask him some questions about the principles that have allowed him to create such a dramatic amount of prosperity in the MLM profession.  I wanted to take a brief minute and share some of the insights that I gained from our conversation.

Mark Yarnell is simply not a traditional MLM distributor.  He doesn’t believe in the age old adage that ‘duplication is king’ in your MLM business.  The truth of the matter that Mark Shares is that you don’t need to copy your upline leader to be a success, but you need to be yourself.  What matters is that you sponsor as many distributors as you possibly can.

A few years ago when I was struggling in my own MLM business, I ran across Mark’s books and I read his controversial views on MLM duplication and I about fell out of my chair.  It was incredible to me that someone with this much influence was putting himself on the line with such strong statements.  One of the things that he told me was that the plain and simple truth that’s behind the success of the greatest Network Marketers in the world is that they all have built a business in a way that is entirely unique based on their own individual set of skills, beliefs, and talents.

He painted a hilarious illustration talking about how if you accidentally got in a car crash and sponsored the other person in your business, you wouldn’t go around town crashing into cars hoping that you’d sponsor another one.  It’s a stupid example, but one that paints a good picture.  Building a business in the MLM profession is about creating relationships, not copying your upline leader.

The most valuable insight I gained from my conversation with Mark was that the only thing that will truly make or break your success in Network Marketing is the numbers.  There are all kinds of ways we can try and justify other explanations, but the truth is that if you look into any MLM organization in the world, approximately one out of every 30 people who join an MLM business go nuts and start making a few thousand dollars a month.  About one out of every 100 people make a six figure income in most companies, and about one out of every thousand people hit the mid six figures to seven figure level annually.

Knowing the numbers simply creates one question: how can you get more people in your team FASTER than any other way possible? Also how can you coach people together in a team environment that allows everyone to learn the skills that they need to break through?  One thing I learned from Mark Yarnell is that although you’ve got to train people on how to be successful, in the end you just can’t fight the numbers, you’ve got to embrace them, and when you have enough people in your team combined with an EXCELLENT company and a great team culture, there’s magic that happens for everyone.
