Summary: A Waste of Money
Review: A bit too much "story" and a bit too little "meat", but I suppose that's endemic to the MLM book community.Still, this is a good way for old-style MLMers to be gently made aware that Things Are Different Now and they'd better lose their irrational fear of computers if they want to Network-Market at their optimum. Poe does a good job reminding the reader that E-Everything doesn't replace human relationships as the foundation of MLM--that technology instead is more of a jump-start, lubricant, and market expander--but STILL Poe too often waxes hyperactive about MLM's shiny-new E-Mail/Internet Frontiers. In short, this isn't the Must Read it purports to be, but it does have a place on the right bookshelves.

Summary: Eh- not as good as the first.
Review: I was very excited about this book, as "WAVE 3" was really good. I feel that if you have read WAVE 3, you pretty much get the whole deal. WAVE 4 doesn't really expand well enough for me to recommend reading it.
Although the book needed to be written, to show how Network Marketing has grown, this book just doesn't have the belief and enthusiasm that the first one does.

Summary: A Waste of Money
Review: I wish I had paid more attention to the other reviewers before purchasing this book: at no time does it teach you how to build anything. It's merely another book giving mysterious stories of people who were down and out and then exploded into million-dollar success by network marketing. How? you ask? Who knows. There's just hints that "Susie" began paying more attention to her downline, or that "Bob" started using the internet to build his clientele base......
Skip it; buy Your First Year In Network Marketing by Mark Yarnell and just keep re-reading it.

Summary: Is EXPLODING MY DOWNLINE!
Review: If you are in MLM or want to be, this book and WAVE 4 are must reads. My downline has been exploding since I started adding these books to their starter packages.

Summary: Recycled info
Review: In my opinion, Richard Poe is an excellent writer and has become a master at selling the same information over and over. I don't say that is a BAD thing. Some people need a steady stream of such information in order to keep their minds fed with positive material. I don't have a problem with that. However, the titles of these books seem misleading as there really isn't any information in this book that wasn't made available in the previous three books. The examples are different, but the basic premise is the same: today's network marketing companies are VERY user-friendly and don't include the hassles that were dominant in the industry 20-30 years ago. Today, you can make an insane amount of money in MLM by working from home and not having to handle product inventory, paperwork, shipping, receiving, employees, overhead, etc. If you're just looking for some good info on MLM, this is a good book. But, since the title is "....way to build your downline", it's a bit misleading...there's not much new here.

Summary: Build Your Business Faster and Stronger !
Review: Just got done reading this my second book by Mr. Poe. I must say he writes extremely well for this industry even though as he says, "I am not a Network Marketer". Mr. Poe was a very sucessful writer for "SUCCESS" Magazine who has moved out on his own and covers our industry most excellently. This is the Book I was personally looking for even though I wasn't sure what I wanted from reading Network Marketing and Motivational books. This book will instruct you in clearcut ways on how to be a Leader in your industry and where to make your next step as a Network Marketer. But even better yet it will instruct you on your own personal motivation and how to pass that on to your Team ! I am now going to buy 3 copies for some of the best leaders in My Network Marketing downline and expect my business to explode because of it! Thanks Mr. Poe for your insightful look at our industry !

Summary: From the man who started the MLM revolution
Review: Richard Poe is without a doubt the most prolific, captivating and widely published author in network marketing history. His classic article, "Network Marketinng: The Most Powerful Way to Reach Consumers in the 90's", May 1990, literally opened the floodgates for network marketing articles and the wave of excitement for network marketing which has carried over to the new millenium. The book is split up into 3 parts and 19 chapters. What I found particularly interesting was part two: The 7 Traits of an MLM leader in which Poe starts off in chapter 6 discussing what makes a leader. He then goes on in detail the 7 traits which are 1) Drive
2) Persistence
3) Teachability
4) Thick Skin
5) Positive Attitude
6) Compassion
7) Vision Poe draws from the wisdom of Xenophon, Napoleon, Sun Tzu and other historic leaders and instructs the ambitious networker in the timeless art of leading others. He desribes the network ma rketer as a freedom fighter, a leader, a business leader, an entrepreneur. Poe is almost Reagan-like in saying that we cannot depend on the government to take of us, we need to take care of ourselves and he goes on to explain why network marketing may be the best vehicle to do that. I highly recommend this book in addition to Wave 4 and Mark Yarnells excellent book, Your First Year in Network Marketing.
