Can anyone offer input on "Mentors in Motion"
 

"Mentors in Motion" is an educational program being offered through several conference calls to show effective marketing techniques and how to increase any direct selling business.

They want $499.99 for this course and if you can bring in one person to replace your "student status" you are elevated to "mentor status" that entitles you to earn a commission of $400 of that $499.99 tuition from any other person who buys the course.

It all sounds good, but as one who has been lied to and scammed so many times in the past - I'm very skeptical no matter how good an offering sounds.

Is any one familiar with this program?

Thank you very much in advance,

Scott

I was not familiar with it, but it does indeed sound very scammy (scummy?). So, I did a quick search on Google, and the first result was the link below.

IMHO, most of the marketing "secrets" (the valid ones, at least) revealed to prospects & newbie MLMers in such sessions, while they seem to be MLM-specific, are simply applications of the basic marketing fundamentals. These can be learned from products that are a heck-of-a lot cheaper than, say, the $499 that MIM wants you to pay.

Once in awhile, someone (e.g., Dan Kennedy and Gary Halbert) may come up with an innovative approach to marketing an MLM product (note, it's the product, not the biz-op). But, even then, it's really just the application of marketing concepts/methods that aren't usually done in the MLM world. (And I certainly don't mean to sound like I'm belittling such innovation; I wish I could come up with something like that.)
