Network Marketing Strategies & Tips For Best Results

There Is No “I” In Team..

Written by Marie on Oct 3rd, 2008 | Filed under: All Posts

Building a team is all about the team and nothing of it is about you.

This is where you stand to the side and look at the group instead.

Your team is made up of people you sponsored and if you check the word sponsor in the dictionary, it describes it as one for whom you take responsibility.

In other words their success is dependent upon you.

But there are criteria to judge before taking responsibility for someone else’s success.

These include:

  • desire: does your new business partner have the desire to succeed?
  • belief: does that person believe in themselves enough to get there?
  • commitment: are they ready to commit to a minimum of 2 years?

From then on, it sits in your lap to see that your team is successful.  Training is the key to success which will teach you how to sift, sort and qualify.

It will provide you with outstanding tools that will make your team a winner rather than a loser.

It will give you the opportunity for growth.

Now, not all companies will offer such opportunities for self growth.  Only the best do so.

Remember that if your main goal is to help poor people, that staying poor won’t get you where you want, but rich will!


Who’s The Winner? Belief Over Motivation?

You’ve gotta believe to make it big!

You mean to tell me that all I need is to really believe that my business will be successful and it will be?

I don’t think so.

Don’t get me wrong, believing in yourself is important but you don’t need a dream board to make that $40,000 per year at your day job, do you? Of course not!

It boils down to the tools you are using to be successful. You don’t use a shovel to dig a foundation, you get the backhoe. Well network marketing works on the same principle.

You need a system other than just word of mouth.

The right tools will bring you consistent, steady progress. Motivation will be the side-effect of a good marketing strategy.

Would not talking to highly qualified prospects every day be a good motivator?

But motivation hides behind shyness or lack of self-esteem when you have to personally go out there and find a prospect that would be interested in your offer.

Staring at your vision board or reading your goal statement to remind you of why you are doing this in the first place can get tedious.

It’s when you stop worrying about belief and apply yourself to learning about how to market your business that you will find the people you want for your business, because they will be searching you out and not the other way around.

Motivation Isn’t The Solution. It’s A Copout.

That’s what your upline will tell you when you get discouraged and are looking for answers. They just don’t know what else to say.

Instead they should be asking you what type of marketing strategy have you implemented. If they taught you how then this should never be an issue in the first place.

You cannot do without a good marketing system.

Internal drive will get you where you want and it’s the real results that will motivate you.
