Hi Gary, Charlatans, however, flash it around like a rat with a gold tooth. Another really good tell tale give away are the ones that use Dr. I'MANut Phd. You don't use both Dr. 7 Phd. You use one or the other.

Good point Peter. ================== "Another really good tell tale give away are the ones that use Dr. I'MANut Phd." ================== So, what you are saying is you don't sign off Dr Dolittle PhD but just Dr Dolittle or, for instance, D Dolittle PhD. Gary

on the offenders website it is Dr. DoNuthin Phd.

Seems to have fallen into a hole. That would be a hole with a Phd. Dr Hole. Holy PhD's Batman. Gary

Hi Linda, I just discovered this thread and most of the messages were posted months ago. I read through most of them and I didn't see the one thing that I think is a great reason people do fail in network marketing. My networking career started when I lost of my job (thank goodness!) as a Paralegal over 10 years ago in a corprate downsizing. Even though I did work for a couple more law firms after that, I began searching for a way to create my own income from home - because I finally realized there is NO job security. After I re-married and moved from NC to MI, I began a serious search for the right opportunity. Like you said, I have been involved in a lot of companies with a lot of products and services... and I have had some successes along the way, as well as a lot of learning experiences (sometimes called failures). Right now I absolutely love what I do - a combination of network marketing and affiliate marketing, as well as sharing what I learn about using spiritual principles in business. One common thing I have found in those who do not experience success in their business is the unwillingness to be "teachable." Many people join a company and then they break contact... they just kind of disappear. I have learned that they believe they are supposed to be on their own now and should not "bother" me, even though I offer my assistance and our training systems regularly. So, to me that is not being "teachable." To be teachable one has to be willing to accept training and adopt proven systems and methods of creating success. So, late as I am to this thread, that's my take! Thanks for being you!
