Eben Pagan is edgy, and I am enjoying his style of teaching and interacting immensely. No hype what-so-ever! No "come to jesus" style antics. Just facts, concepts and fun.

I was just sharing with a fellow network marketer today that I feel one of the benefits I have had in my 9 years of learning, experiencing and succeeding with Internet Marketing is that almost all of my education came from INTERNET Marketers and not Network Marketers, even though I am a network marketer myself.

This has proven invaluable because I learned how to get inside the mind of my prospect, (just like any customer for any product) and solve a need. Unfortunately, most network marketers are never taught good marketing skills, they are taught advertising and "fake it til you make it" skills.

I am grateful that my training is continuing with another true Internet Marketer who teaches how to provide value.

So, Eben's Slap Fest. He shares a great segment on being "edgy-authentic." He teaches how to push the envelope a little and present yourself as a slightly idealized version of themselves. You don't want to be too far beyond them; too different or too better.  And, you don't want to be just like them either.

Get "real" about things.

He shares a story about coaching a guy on dating and instead of saying - "Dude, your approach was all wrong" he said - "Please take your right hand, raise it up close to your face and give yourself a nice, swift b#*ch slap." That gets people engaged.

It helps you get real in the eyes of your audience.

HMMMMM. I'll have to figure some more authenticity in that regard for myself. I am loving learning this stuff.

Are you edgy-authentic? Do you come across as "real" to your prospects?

EXPECT Success!
