That’s the name of a training series that my MLM mentor, Randy Gage, put out. Honestly, I never bought the training (I’m sure it would have been a good investment, despite the training that I was getting from him anyway as my MLM upline – but you can’t buy everything, I guess), but boy is that title the truth.

I think that, somewhere, the only real difference between the MLM world and the Internet/Affiliate Marketing world is that the MLM world teaches you the importance of duplication (likely because the latter world generally doesn’t let you benefit from anything that you don’t do yourself, so duplication isn’t the point)…

But yet, that’s not quite true.

After all, isn’t duplication the main sales pitch behind any piece of “point ‘n’ click” solution? Or more accurately, the affiliate pitch?

It’s so easy to use, you’ll have no problem making tons of money by selling this thing to complete newbies!

Something to that extent, anyway.

I recently posted some praise for Clickbank Pirate, which focused entirely on duplication – that’s one of the reasons I love it so much, by the way.

It’s a bit extreme for some people, I suppose. Some “advanced marketers” don’t like the fact that you don’t get to collect the email addresses of your prospects in their system.

I personally disagree – it’s what I like best about the system. It’s pure duplication, because every single email that you put out, will be the same email that everyone else puts out. I can sell that, as a system, in confidence, because I know fully well that once someone’s on a list, it doesn’t matter if they were signed up by a complete newbie or a guru – the expected results, the expected conversion, will be exactly the same! And really, how hard is it to get someone to fill in his name and email address? Really?

So, trying to get back to the original point – after all, this is an “informational post” (or was supposed to be, anyway) about duplication, the fact remains that folks don’t advertise duplication for what it is. And I’m kinda surprised why not? I do feel a wind of change, as more IM systems move closer and closer towards duplication, but I don’t see the systems as advertising themselves as such.

Maybe someone should pick up the baton and educate more Internet Marketers on duplication.

Any voulenteers?
