A letter for network marketers · About 8 minutes

If you’ve been in network marketing longer than a month, you already know the playbook.

Make a list of a hundred people. Message your friends. Post every day. Invite them to the call. Follow up until they buy or die.

I call that the chase. And in the next few minutes I want to show you, plainly, why the chase is the reason so many good people quit, and what the people who don’t quit are doing instead.

Chapter 1

What the chase really costs

In the chase, every result depends on you doing something today. Message. Post. Call. Invite. The day you stop, the business stops with you.

Think about what it takes to enroll one person the old way. Dozens of messages. A handful of replies. A couple of calls. Weeks of follow-up. Then they join, you earn a small commission, and too often they’re gone in ninety days, because the only thing you could teach them was how to chase too.

• Your warm market runs out. Everyone you know has heard it. Some of them have muted you.
• Your time is the ceiling. There are only so many messages you can send in a night.
• Your team copies you. If your system is chasing, you’ve just taught a whole team to burn out the same way.
• You get paid last. You do the hardest work up front, and the money trickles in months later, if they stay.

Chapter 2

Where I’m coming from

I’m Bryan Arias. I’ve been selling for 24 years. I closed my first big sale at sixteen, on one phone call. Since then I’ve sold door to door, on the phone and face to face: vacuums, supplements, phones, cars, credit, business funding and $25,000 workshops. I’ve run a sales room doing a million dollars a month.

Here’s what all those years taught me. The best closers I ever worked with didn’t chase. They had a system bringing them people who had already raised their hand. Their job was to show up, have a real conversation, and help that person decide.

Network marketing is one of the only businesses left that asks its people to do the marketing, the prospecting, the selling and the follow-up, all by hand, all at once. No real business grows that way. Yours shouldn’t have to either.

Chapter 3

The other way: the Mirror Code

The Mirror Code is the system we build for you, inside your own account. It does the parts of the business you’ve been doing by hand, around the clock.

Three jobs, done for you: bring in the right people, book them onto your calendar, and bring back the ones who said “not yet.” At 11 p.m. or during your kid’s soccer game.

You stop being the engine. You become the person people already want to talk to by the time they show up on your calendar.

Chapter 4

The part your upline never mentioned

When someone joins your team, what do they usually get? A starter kit, a list of a hundred names, and you, teaching them to chase.

Now picture this instead. When someone joins you, they get their own Mirror Code: the same system you use, set up for them and mirrored from yours. That’s the kind of setup agencies charge thousands for, and it’s the thing that actually gives a new person a shot at results in their first few weeks.

Because it’s real value, your people pay to plug in. Leaders who build this way typically set that between $1,000 and $2,000. Which means you get paid when someone joins, not months later, and whether or not they stick around.

One business owner we built a funnel and automation system for sent me this after his first 90 days:

“Integrating everything into [one system] has been a total game-changer. It is finally all automated and working! … Out of 1,500 qualified prospects, we just had 80 applicants sign on in the last 90 days!”

In their words · comments from real clients

“Before the Mirrorline Growth System, leads went cold with no follow-up and disconnected tools. The system Bryan created works 24/7 with next to no effort once running. Now prospects get followed up and calls book themselves. The biggest difference is time back and steady conversations. I stopped chasing and started closing. If you’re a network marketer tired of cold leads, get on a call with Bryan.”

Chapter 5

What this isn’t

I’ll be straight with you, because the internet is full of the other kind of pitch.

• It isn’t a shortcut. The system brings people to you. You still have to show up, coach your people and have something worth joining.
• It isn’t a pitch to switch companies. We build it around the company you’re already in, inside its rules.
• It isn’t a highlight reel. No rented cars, no “secret loopholes,” no screenshots of strangers’ bank accounts. A system, and the sales skills to use it.
• It isn’t for everyone. We only take on a few people at a time, so we’re careful about who we build for.

Here’s what to do next

Two steps.

First, get the playbook. The Obsidian Technique, Network Marketing Edition, is what to do the moment prospects start coming to you: how to answer them in minutes, sort the customers from the builders, walk them to a yes, and keep them from quitting in the first two weeks. It’s $47, and the Obsidian Scorecard team pack comes with it.

Then, we talk. Your purchase unlocks a free one-on-one strategy call with me. We’ll look at your business from the outside, show you exactly where the chase is costing you, and map what your Mirror Code would look like. If it isn’t a fit, I’ll tell you, and you’ll still leave with a clearer plan than you came in with.

— Bryan

P.S. Why the $47 first? Because the people who get the most from a strategy call already know the method. It keeps my calendar for people who are serious, and it means we spend our time on your business, not the basics.
