How the Acupuncturist Met the Internet Guru and the Sales Queen

I hope you read Alicia’s post last week called, How the Internet Guru and the Sales Queen Met.

Wouldn’t you have loved to have been a ‘fly on the wall’ during that very first phone consultation between Ann Sieg, the Internet Guru, and Alicia Bausley, the Sales Queen?!

I am sure neither of them knew the deep friendship and strong business bonds that would grow from that very first phone call.

It makes you think, doesn’t it? When you pick up the phone to do consultative selling, you just never know what business friendships and relationships will develop.

And I guarantee neither Ann nor Alicia predicted joining forces with an acupuncturist!  Sometimes even I wonder how I got myself here.  (But just between you and me, I pinch myself every day because I can hardly believe my good fortune!)

The thing is, I am probably not all that different from you.

You see, I was not interested in gurus or queens in October 2007 when I was learning how to use the web to market my acupuncture practice.

I was happily learning how to build my very own Site Build It! website.  I was super proud of myself for actually creating a website that was earning me money!  Especially because I was a total web novice.  I was content to just keep building my acupuncture website.  End of story.

That is, until Ken Evoy of SiteSell, Inc., made an interesting post in the Site Build It! Forums.

If you are an SBI!er, you may remember Ken introducing us to a network marketing expert named Ann Sieg.  According to Ken, Ann had apparently unraveled the puzzle of how to generate an endless amount of qualified leads using the power of the Internet.

Ken does not endorse just anyone. So I paid attention.   He said that Ann Sieg bases her business on over-delivering quality information and offering value to her customers.  Hmm… that was very consistent with SBI!’s approach and it appealed to me.

Moreover, Ann taught network marketers how to shift their thinking from working for their MLM to becoming independent, marketing-focused entrepreneurs.  I liked hearing that too!

I started to wonder if I could actually fulfill my dream of multiple sources of residual income by following Ann Sieg’s system.

I decided that the only way I would know is if I gave it a try!

So I bought The Renegade Network Marketer ebook and attended the two live web classes on “How to Put the Net into Network Marketing” by Ken Evoy and Ann Sieg.

Ann Sieg said something very interesting in those web classes that changed my life.

Little did I know that a few words Ann said during those webinars would be responsible for the Sales Queen (Alicia Bausley) picking up the phone and calling ME!

What was it that Ann said? She talked about developing your business brand by creating your own product.  She stated that product creation can be as simple as taking someone else’s ideas and rephrasing them and adding your own perspective.

In that moment, “The 7 Great Truths of InterNetwork Marketing” was born!  I wrote this short ebook using information from Ken and Ann’s web classes and I added my own experiences.

I actually got up the nerve to send a link to the ebook to Ken and Ann, asking for their permission to use their information.  I also was worried about using the title (since it was a clear play on Ann Sieg’s, “The 7 Great Lies of Network Marketing”).

You’ll never believe what happened.

Ann called me!  And Ken emailed me!  They both gave me their full support to go ahead with the ebook.  I thought I had it made!

I had never written an ebook before and did not know anything about marketing or autoresponders.  I just did the best I could and put it ‘out there’.

Fortunately it landed in the hands of The Sales Queen, Alicia Bausley.  Alicia read my ebook and immediately called to invite me to join her on a “little project”.  That project was to write an ebook called, “How to Build Your MLM Business” with 6 other members of her team.

Alicia and I ‘hit it off’ as they say.  Although we have different backgrounds, we have very similar working styles.  It did not take us long to figure out that we were a good team.

Alicia has exceptional sales training skills, experience, and knowledge.  She really is the Queen of lead conversions!

I have a solid background in building an online business with Site Build It! and have teaching and writing skills that complement Alicia’s.

Joining forces to write “The Lead Conversion Kit” was born out of our desire to help struggling online network marketers and to duplicate the brilliant marketing model that Ann Sieg teaches.

Perhaps you are like many of the new online network marketers we have talked to who have made the transition from calling friends and family to using the Internet, but still remain stuck when it comes to converting website traffic into buying customers.

“The Lead Conversion Kit” is a comprehensive training manual to show you how to take the exact same steps that the big gurus are taking to generate income.

One of these steps is to repackage – or repurpose – content. We cover all of this in Chapter 11: Perceived Value and The Sideways Sales Funnel.

Learning these few tricks will totally change your business.

I want you to know that there isn’t any reason you can’t be just as successful as the Internet Guru and the Sales Queen.

Oh, and the Acupuncturist, too!

P.S.  We briefly cover The 7 Great Truths if InterNetwork Marketing in Chapter 1 of “The Lead Conversion Kit”… right after our section entitled, “Ken and Ann, Sitting in a Tree…”

How the Internet Guru and Sales Queen Met

Quite deservingly, Ann Sieg has acquired an elite Internet guru status with her breath taking success of “The Lead Conversion Kit”.   She’s a force to be reckoned with, too!  Her attraction marketing and multiple streams of income philosophies are teaching thousands how to make money in business.

I chuckle when I hear how Ann refers to me in the Foreword she has written for our new soon-to-be-released book, “The Lead Conversion Kit”.  Actually she explains that her own network marketing team fondly calls me the Queen because of my high sales conversion ratio with leads.
What does this mean for you, though, in regards to building a profitable business?  The answer in a moment! First, let me tell you a little story when the Internet guru and the sales conversion queen first met.

A few years ago when Ann was just starting to build an amazing presence on the Internet, I called and left her a message.   She called me back at my home.  I was lucky.  Her status no longer allows her the luxury of calling people back who want to ‘pick her brain’ for help.

Ann and I spent considerable time talking on the phone and I listened intently while she advised me on what I could do to solve my own problem of building a network marketing business.

It seems I had the answer already, but was not implementing it into network marketing.  It had to do with picking up a phone, calling people, and addressing their needs with a solution .  Heck, I’d been doing that successfully for years and bringing in an insane income as a result.  Geez!  This was going to be a no-brainer.

Based on Ann’s direction, I started using a sales approach called consultative selling in my network marketing business.  Immediately, I began building a cash flow.  Seriously, I was using some old leads and still converting them rapidly by approaching my prospects and solving their greatest challenge.

Within the first few weeks, I had made nearly $1,000 in commissions. Not a lot of money, but a great start.  And I wasn’t putting any cash OUT.  I was just picking up the phone and bringing cash IN.

Within a few months, I became the top performer on Ann Sieg’s network marketing team.  I still maintain that position today, even though I work two other home businesses, and while I focus on building an information product line for the business community.

I’m getting ready to introduce a new book to our industry with the support and backing of our famed Internet guru, Ann Sieg.   It’s called “The Lead Conversion Kit”.  I had the pleasure of writing it with my business partner, Lisa Hanfileti.  It’s been a labor of love for the last six months.

It’s based on Ann Sieg’s philosophy of attraction marketing, multiples streams of income and my high lead conversion ratio for creating a cash flow fast.  It’s actual hands on sales training from an experienced sales person using a comfortable and easy approach to selling!

What does this mean for you?

It’s a comprehensive training manual for you, your team, and it’s an affiliate program.  It walks you through the process of lead conversion from A to Z.  No college education required.  No special degrees.  All you need is to read the book, follow our direction, scripts, and take some action.  The results?  High lead conversions will provide you substantial cash flow in your business (and with just a small number of leads).

Ann doesn’t place her stamp of approval on just anybody.  You’ve got to earn the status to get her respect and admiration.  I’m grateful for that first day when we spoke on the phone and saw the light, from which I earned the friendship of a very special lady.

This book is so complete, so comprehensive, that Ann Sieg has written a foreword to the “The Lead Conversion Kit”.  And Ken Evoy also contributed his own foreword.

Take a look at just a few paragraphs of Ann’s written Foreword within the book.  Then look for our next email, where we’ll tell you exactly why you need to get your hands on this book as soon as possible.

In Ann Sieg’s own words . . .

. . . This book is about learning and implementing attraction marketing and using the entire sales funnel, which of course happens to include working the phone.  This is totally possible when you generate your own leads via attraction marketing.  The good news is that when you develop the right sales skills you don’t need an insane amount of leads to develop a thriving downline.  Lisa and Alicia explain all this in their 7 Proven Steps To Turning Online Leads Into Paying Customers And Downline Members right inside this book!

Alicia and Lisa call it consultative selling.  Selling is what you’re going to be doing and doing it proudly and comfortably knowing that you are genuinely and authentically serving your prospect with a true win/win solution.

While Alicia and Lisa cover an enormous amount of ground including the all important lead conversion process the most important part is that this is about becoming a rich network marketer.   Not a poor network marketer.  Let me explain.

In the spirit of the Renegade Network Marketer and Site Build it! their goal is to systematically help move you out of a state of dependency and increasingly towards a state of independence.  That’s why they chose the powerful symbol of the flag of the United States, along with the title of their book “The Lead Conversion Kit”.

Alicia and Lisa put it this way, “One of the most important lessons we hope you understand now is that sales do not begin and end with your network marketing company.”

Let me share with you why they tell you this. It’s because they care.  You see it’s about being truthful and honest with you so that you can make the most well informed decisions for your business and your future.

It’s great if you’re in love with your network marketing company.   Many distributors are.  But don’t become so starry eyed that you don’t protect yourself.  Through all your hard work you owe it to yourself and your family to develop multiple streams of revenue (not just a network marketing income).

We need to remove the emotional aspects of owning and running a profitable business and look at the hard facts of business management.  It simply is not smart business to put all your eggs in one basket.

I hope you’re as excited and eager to get going as I was when I read this book. . .

That’s just the beginning of where this book will take you in your business. This is not an ordinary book.  This is a comprehensive training manual to expand your mind so you can realize the FULL potential of your business!

Warm regards,

Alicia Bausley
