MLM Books | What Daryl Hannah Taught Me About MLM Books
Let me start by saying that I’m not a great reader of MLM Books. When I was in college (a few years back) I spent three years reading somewhere between 10 to 15 books a week, from William Blake to William Shakespeare to William K Dick (of Blade Runner fame) often reading into the small hours and regularly running three or more books alongside each other. It was a lot of fun in the beginning and my mind grew like a body builders biceps on steroids but after a while it became work and hard work at that. So when college ended and I hit the road with my English Lit degree firmly tucked beneath my arm, I decided to take a well earned rest from literature for a while.
Twenty years later, I found myself heading away for a two week holiday with my beautiful wife and our three children in need of some light reading – I had thrown my copy of Blade Runner away (“Do Androids dream of Electric Sheep” for anyone wondering what the book was called) after watching Daryl Hannah with her legs wrapped around Harrison Ford’s neck. It was never quite the same after that

So, science fiction cast to one side, my need was fulfilled with a handful of network marketing or MLM books.
If you’re in a rush and don’t want to listen to me (that’s okay, really) and want to see a great book about network marketing…
Okay…
Back to Daryl Hannah
Sorry, couldn’t resist that one.
Now, for those of you who have the time to improve your mind and increase your knowledge of the network marketing industry I must warn you; this wasn’t an easy list to draw up and it is by no means the only list of MLM books you’ll find online. It’s a place to start and one which I would recommend for anyone serious about building a network marketing business.
There’s a line in the book (Bladerunner that is) that goes ; They don’t advertise for killers in the newspaper. That was my profession. Ex-cop. Ex-blade runner. Ex-killer
Searching for useful, practical, usable network marketing tips can be a little bit like that at times; with so much hype and so many self-proclaimed MLM Mentors out there fishing for your business the good stuff often gets sunk beneath a sea of junk.
There are a few tried and true classic books on MLM that have stood the test of time and helped thousands of successful MLM professionals jump start their careers (or stay on track if nothing else) and the list below has taken a few of those and offered them up for your appreciation. Let me know below if you have any other suggestions to add to my list of MLM books.
