Two words come to mind with Russ McNeil: prolific and profound. He has done it again with a book that will rock your world. The ’Cookies Book’ is about as powerful as any book I’ve read in years. Readers should have their ‘Cookie Journals’ in front of them in order to take notes. Radically brilliant! Don't just read it–consume it!!!
As an IBO, being able to meet new people is an important skill to have. This skill doesn’t come naturally to everyone, but it is a skill that anyone can learn. In prospecting, posturing is the key; much like fishing. The fish are out there, you just have to know how to lure them. This book gives you the map. It shows you how to bait the hook, how to work the line, and how to reel them in. If you want to fill the boat and win the tournament, this is the one to read.
Russ McNeil's book `Prospecting Rules!' is very insightful, a real eye opener even for this sixteen-year Network Marketing on-line veteran. I just grabbed hold of a few more gold nuggets to start practicing and I plan to use it as a team training manual! We get a lot of bang for the buck packed into one little fast reading book. Consistently put these tips and real life scenarios into real action and watch your business come alive!
Russ McNeil has taken an important part of network marketing that is usually glossed over or ignored and broken it down so that it can be learned and practiced, much like learning to play an instrument. Now, when a rhino wants to charge, he or she can read this book and apply action that will produce results. Russ, thank you for making it easier to charge out in the jungle!
Successful prospecting equals network marketing success. Prospecting Rules! is the best book on prospecting I’ve read in my three decades of network marketing. It’s a quick, easy read (lot’s of pictures for us guys), but is packed with powerful ideas for approaching people. Every network marketer should read this book!
To the whole MLM World: As the 'MLM Watchdog' and 'MLM Oracle', I am always on the lookout for SUPER GOOD Transformational Training. Most MLM training stuff is MUSH as far as changing behavior goes, but Russ McNeil’s dynamite book, Prospecting Rules!, is a shining exception. This book contains transformational training that lays out a step-by-step pattern of prospecting that is both logical and DUPLICABLE. I don’t care if you’re a newbie in the industry or someone squeaking by on a $ million a year, I have one short sentence for you in my normal bone-breaking honesty: You’d have to be just plain dumb to not buy this book and read it from cover to cover!
Turning strangers into friends is the life blood of our business. Read Russ's book, Prospecting Rules!, to discover how. It's fun, easy to read, and insightful.
I have known Russ McNeil personally for over 20 years. I have watched him transition and grow as a man, author, and teacher. When I read Prospecting Power [aka Prospecting Rules], it took me back to my early days before the ministry when I was in the insurance industry. I found myself laughing and nodding my head at some of the heartache I went through when learning how to prospect. This book would have saved me a lot of hard-learned lessons. Prospecting Power will infuse you with confidence as it arms you with some time-tested principals of prospecting. Read and enjoy.
