The Renegade Network Marketer, by Ann Sieg

This woman Ann, gives you dish on all topics I was floored by the things she said about Pampered Chef. I am thinking wow how could you live with yourself. I was just totally amazed I had to share.
 
I haven't read all of her stuff yet but I think she just inserts each Network Marketing company into her "reports". On G-mail there are "ads" based on something from the email you are reading. I keep seeing her ads whenever I read a Stampin' Up related email. She says the same thing about them. Here is the link I found about SU.
The Renegade Network Marketer, by Ann Sieg
She lumps all direct sales & network marketing & multi-level marketing etc. companies into the same boat...even when they don't fit the "profile".Here's her link about Partylite.

did anyone notice on there, there is one of our Canadian CS people quoted on there? Is this thing actually legit?
 
I looked at her stuff way back when. As a former pr/marketing consultant with 16+ years, I was looking for something new to learn. I'd have to say she offeres a FEW good points -- but, us cheffers already know them: it's about offering good customer support and offering value not just repeated sales pitches that keep customers loyal. Really, no new info for those who receive the training PC already gives!

Her real business is getting hits on your website with links and such. I think most of it is so unuseable for cheffers and real deal direct sales companies-- so save your money for someone like Belinda Ellsworth who gets our biz.

I had just finished looking at that & then noticed the pic of the woman looked familiar. Found her on here & questioned her about it. Of course she said it was GREAT training...;)
 
I actually bought her package and after reading through it asked for my money back.

Once good thing I can say about it is they gave me my money back promptly!

Again, speaking as a pr/marketing gal -- not worth a cheffers money :) If you want interesting marketing tips I highly reccomend the lemonade lady. Her book "Presentations for Profits" taught me a bunch of new and original marketing ideas. And the book was only $14.95. A bargain!

She applies her 'theories' to all DS companies. Never found it useful - never paid for anything - had just signed up for her FREE info.

If someone from CS has signed up/given testimonial - then PM them and ask????
