Growing Corn or Creating Leaders?

The leadership shift that turns six-figure earners into seven-figure builders.
By Bob Snyder
Two farmers owned adjoining fields of corn. The first farmer was known as Boss farmer. His fields were flawless. The rows were straight, the spacing perfect, the irrigation exact. Every inch of his farm reflected discipline and control. Workers followed his instructions carefully, and he inspected everything they did. Nothing escaped his eye. If his workers made mistakes, they were fired and replaced.
Next door lived another farmer. His fields looked… different. The rows wandered a bit. Some patches were overwatered while others looked slightly dry. From a distance, you could tell the field lacked the precision of Boss farmer’s corn fields.
Boss farmer eventually walked over to visit his neighbor, Dad Farmer. He pointed out the crooked rows. The uneven spacing. The imperfections in the crop. When he finished listing the problems, he shook his head and said, “You’d have a much better harvest if you ran this place properly.” The Dad farmer listened patiently. Then he smiled and said something the Boss farmer had never considered.
“Oh, I see the problem,” he said. “You think I’m growing corn.” He gestured toward the field where his five teenage sons were working.

Beneve Prioritizes Field Investment With Coaching Infrastructure

In a network marketing environment marked by compressed distributor lifecycles and evolving skill demands, Beneve has embedded professional coaching directly into its field development model. Rather than positioning training as a supplementary resource, the company structures ongoing mentorship as part of its operational framework for influencers.

Did You Know: You Lose 80% of Prospects the Moment You Open Your Mouth?

How to Turn Every Holiday Conversation into a Marketing and Recruiting Opportunity Using D.R.I.V.E.
By Bob Snyder
Have you ever walked away from a conversation thinking, “That went well!” only to have the person you were talking to seemingly slip into the witness protection program and ghost you? You’re not alone. Most people lose nearly 80% of their prospects the moment they start talking because they speak to a prospect based on what matters to them, rather than what matters to their prospect.
We’ve identified 5 different buying motivations called DRIVEs. You naturally speak one of the 5 Drive buying languages which, when you speak your DRIVE, creates a disconnect between yourself and the other 4 DRIVEs. Hence the 80% loss.
During the holidays, this becomes even more important. You’ll be surrounded by people at family gatherings, concerts, office parties, and neighborhood events, all perfect opportunities to connect, if you know how to communicate in a way that builds instant trust and likability.

And that’s exactly what the DRIVE Sales System was created to do.
Where DRIVE Came From
DRIVE wasn’t born in a lab or built around a catchy personality quiz. It’s the result of more than two decades of research and real-world testing, crowd-sourced from

Rob Sperry: The State of the Network Marketing Profession

OPINION | By Rob Sperry
No fluff. No spin. Just real perspective.
In the last two years, we’ve seen some big-name companies in network marketing take hits:

Tupperware – Filed for bankruptcy in 2024, but still in business, and with the restructure, many leaders have said they’re going strong.
Modere – bankruptcy; recently closed its doors.
Thirty-One Gifts – bankruptcy.
BODi (Beachbody) – switched to an affiliate model in 2024.
Rodan + Fields – switched to affiliate.
Seint – switched to affiliate.
Lorde and Belle – switched to affiliate.
Beautycounter – shut down.
Epicure – privately owned; closed operations.
Color Street – privately owned; also switched to affiliate.

Many of these larger companies (notably Color Street, Seint, and Epicure) are privately owned, while Tupperware remains publicly traded.
Private equity (PE) firms can be geniuses in many other industries; they know how to scale, raise capital, optimize and exit. But when it comes to network marketing? They “typically” don’t get it.
They don’t get the emotional side of this business.  They don’t get the single mom earning $400 a month to bridge the gap. They don’t get how real this is to the people building it. They look at bottom-line profit. They make short-term decisions. Those short-term decisions eventually catch up to them.
And when a business
