(Hide Review...)  Daring to Dream
Reviewer Permalink
Great book on multi-level marketing or MLM! Written by a MLM veteran, this has numerous tips and practical information on running the average MLM company from the comfort of your own home or small office. The information isn't specific to any one company but that increases its usefulness. Chapter 1 speaks about what to do about the "fog" encountered by so many at the beginning of their MLM experience and helps you through inevitable tough times you'll encounter. Later chapters help you navigate in MLM and stay the course to become successful. Very encouraging, informative, and practical. Well worth the low cost and the time to read, with an easy reading style.

(Hide Review...)  The "Bible" of Network Marketing
Reviewer Permalink
I've read 50 or more books on MLM and this is the definitive text. Dr. Barrett captures the MLM business as it "feels" to those of us who are involved in it. Self-motivation is often a lonely and depressing venture. Dr. Barrett understands this and speaks to it with more insight than anything else I've ever read.

On a personal note, I was privileged to meet and speak with Dr. Barrett. I found him to be knowledgeable, humble and truly interested in helping others to learn and grow.

This is the book I recommend to my own MLM team as well as the one I go to for inspiration and answers. If I could give it 10 stars, I would.

(Hide Review...)  One of my all-time favorite books!
Reviewer Permalink
If you are a network marketer, this is a must read!
You get a realistic look at the business and what it takes to make it.
The author points out what it takes: consistency, duplication and enough time. Discover the four ingredients for success and the three fuels to get you there. He says you need vision, courage and stamina to make it in this business and I couldn't agree more. This book has helped me to stay positive and stay with it as I built my team from 10 to 590 in under 10 months! It's a must-have! I loved this book. Mindy McCortney

(Hide Review...)  Excellent Book, and Not Just for Network Marketers
Reviewer Permalink
This is terrific book. And, although it's written for Network Marketers in particular (and can truly help both the beginning and veteran Network Marketers to reach significantly higher levels of success within their companies), the wisdom contained in Dr. Barrett's teachings are applicable to any person in any field; assuming the goal of that person is to become a top producer and/or top leader.

While I found myself learning and re-learning ideas throughout the book that held significant value (highlighter and pen were used often and lots of pages are dog-eared - the sure sign of a book I found to be very valuable), there were certain chapters that were of such help, I had to realllllly slow down and be sure to absorb them.

While I won't spoil it here by trying to summarize in just a few sentences what he taught in an entire chapter, I will say that his concept of the "jelly in the donut" brought an entirely new understanding of "belief systems" and how they either help us or hurt us . . . usually, without our even knowing. He then expertly explained how to get the bad jelly out and the new, life-enhancing jelly in. If his explanation and teaching of just this one concept was all you read, it would still be worth many, many times the price of this book.

However . . . don't stop there. There is so much more to read and learn, as well. I tried to read just a bit at a time but couldn't do it; the more I read, the more I wanted to read and the more I looked forward to knowing.

What a great teacher. Thank you, Dr. Barrett. I'll be recommending this book a lot, both to Network Marketers and non-Network Marketers; I guess, then, I'll be recommending it to everyone.

There is so much to learn, psychologically, about building a Network Marketing business and Dr. Barrett does a wonderful job explaining to people how to deal with this. The concepts are simple to understand and extremely valuable to anyone who wants to stay the course in Network Marketing. I would recommend this to a beginner and a veteran of this industry, outstanding book! I would also recommend getting the CD or Cassette version so you can listen to it over and over again.

Great amazing book about the in and out of Networking Marketing!
IT is NOT PYRAMID SCAMS.. but it is a legit business opporunity and this book help you determine which company is legit and not legit...

u do not get rich overnight.. you have to work hard and as a result of hard work you get compenseate CEO's salary...that is a fact... sure beats slaving away for a paycheck to paycheck lifestyle.. I feel that the present economy, high unemployment's rates and corporate's scandals left a bad taste in everyone. So go into business for yourself and as an IBO.. the sky is the limit and you can only go as far you can go!

Anyway - this book is awesome! Very informative and honest and direct!

(Hide Review...)  Great book about the "Ins and Outs" of Networking
Reviewer Permalink
This is, hands down, one of the best books I have read on Network Marketing. If you have never encountered MLM or perhaps have had a "bad" experience in MLM or have some preconceived negative notion about MLM, then read this book and it will help clear up the "bad" and confusion.

Dr. Barrett had spent years researching the different MLM systems and the people who work them (both successful and those who have been unsuccessful) and compiled his final research in this book.

Dr. Barrett describes how those who have been successful in MLM gained that success, what they did "right" to be successful and describes it in great detail in part one. In part two, he moves into the psychology of failure, doubt, etc. and how to overcome some of these "obstacles" in order to be successful in MLM. Finally, in part three, Dr. Barrett discusses the various approaches used to help others be successful - good leadership skills. Teach, lead and coach is the right track and Barrett details this. Putting others first is the principle behind Dr. Barrett's leadership method.

This is a great book for those who are considering a Network Business. In fact, this is a great book for those who are considering any type of business because what is taught in these pages is practiced by every major chain corporation in the world.

Reviewer Permalink
I literally couldn't put this book down. Dr. Barrett tells readers frankly why most people quit MLM. Whenever I feel down, I go to a highlighted place in my book and read it and I am completely boosted! I help my team members do the same. Because of this book, I don't doubt my success ... I KNOW I will be successful in MLM. As Dr. Barrett says, it's simple (not easy, but simple) to become successful beyond your wildest dreams.

Always feeling that there was something missing from my business, I kept on searching, trying to figure it out. Recommened reading from a recent seminar was Dare to Dream....WOW! This was my "missing link" and because I now understand what I intuitively knew, I can explain it, change it, and pass it on. My team is exploding!

Reviewer Permalink
The main thing about being able to reach your goals in network marketing is understanding the way it works from inside yourself. This book is great for the new distributor, the distributor almost to the top of their company, and the distributor who thinks it is all too tough and is ready to quit ! He shows you what to expect, the problems that happen and how to get over them. If you read this book and understand the methods and get the attitude, you will be a Royal Diamond. It goes to all my downline as REQUIRED READING !

This is the book that has kept me going! Great for new network marketers! I include this as a gift to each new distributor at sign-up time so they know what to expect! Dr. Barrett explains how to reprogram your mind so you think and live like an entrepreneur, and encourages you to dream big! Helped me understand how entrepreneurs are paid for their vision, courage and stamina! I've read them all [ok, just most ;-)] and this is the best!

Dr. Tom Barrett gets it right. This book gives the straight scoop on network marketing and what it takes to be a success this industry and in life. Reading this book validated for me that I made the right choice when I chose my network marketing company. He gives advice on what I need to do to attain the next level of success. His advice on what it takes to be a great leader has helped me be a better mentor to my organization. I will recommend this to all my friends in the business.
