My Story
“I’m just an average kid who decided not to take what the world had given me.”
I grew up moving from state to state because my dad worked on boats as an engineer, so everytime a new contract popped up, he would re-root us up and away we went.
Throughout my childhood, we barely had enough money to get by. My dad made decent money compared to the average american but the debt was getting to them. I never really noticed it when I was a kid because that’s just how it was. Till I met some rich families….
We finally ended up in Oregon… My Grandparents agreed to pay for my mom and dad’s expenses while they went back to school. (Anybody who thinks this is their solution to money needs brain surgery)
I went through high school and got really good at guitar. After high school, I knew what I wanted…
A big house, a hot wife, a porsche, and 4 vacation homes…period!
My school consoulers told me to be serious and think realistic… They said I should become an engineer! In-turn, I listened, figuring they knew what was best for me. I struggled in college for 2 yrs…
Everybody told me it was normal to struggle in such a hard field. One day I went to interview an engineer to see what they actually do…
I was horrified! The guys I met were robots and not at all happy…
Shortly after, I left college and went to sell cars. Quickly I learned that the person who makes the most money is not the most educated but the person who produces. I was banking 5, 6, and 7 thousand dollar paychecks every month, more than my parents combined.
After that I opened a couple other businesses and did some other things. But one day…
When I was at the car lot selling, a guy who worked there approached me about a online business, and if I ever thought of making money online…
I said sounds interesting tell me more… He booked a meeting with his upline and we all met for coffee.
This guy told me how I was doing everything wrong and how successful he was…Being a young man, it made me curious enough to get me to a meeting with about 400 people …
The Caliber of people was awsome! Very Professional! So I got involved…
Sold my stereo and paid the $250 to get started, got my kit and the guy disappeared.
I knew nothing…I barely knew what I had gotten into, but over the coming months, I started reading books and listing to tapes…
They got my mentallity right…a priceless asset in this business.
I beat the street hard! After work, I would do plans, prospecting, one on ones, cold calling…you name it, I was going to make it work!
And I did! I did very well and got very high in that company…My main stratagy was putting on a suit and going into service type of environments.
Sometimes I would drive 3 to 6 hrs just to go prospect at a new mall…
That got old very quickly and I topped out! I decided to not listen to my upline and be a business owner.
So I searched the internet for Hours on end everyday on how to create names easier…
I ran into Mike Dillard. His Magnetic Sponsoring Course Changed everything for me!
That was just the beginning. During a six month span, I spent thousands on courses and seminars in order to learn how to market online.
I didn’t have the money, I went out and found the money!
And ever since I switched companies and have done everything online. Never have I looked back to the dark side!
Hopefully that shows my not too bright past…
If you’re struggling, just remember we all start somewhere, what matters is that you just don’t give up!
To Your Success,
Dwayne Phelps
