Network Marketers Should Be More Educated and Upfront With Their New Team Members
How does that catch ya? LOL
Maybe there should be a rule in place that states that network marketers can’t begin sponsoring until they’ve become worthy and valuable of such status. Instead of getting a little lucky and enrolling a few people through a likely semi-spammy, over-hyped pitch or something remotely close in nature!
It happens so much in this industry because it’s the way that MLM companies go about marketing themselves and their product. It just seems convenient for new, ignorant distributors to go about their business.
When this is the case, anyone that these particular distributors brings on, likely goes on to do the same. The end result usually leads to people coming & going through their respective businesses because no one has a clue how to market effectively.
It’s easy to learn about your company & product(s) but seriously.. there’s so much more to be learned that will never come from your MLM company training. They just don’t teach the right stuff and that’s all there is to it. They don’t even point people in the right direction and unless you join the right kind of sponsor, this same occurrence happens over & over in most cases.
This is why most people make very little or no money and then get frustrated after 2-3 short months.
MLM is all about residual income and if you can’t keep people then you get nowhere fast and unless you change the direction of how this needs to work, you never will see that dreamy residual “walk-away” income that you always hear the top 4% talk about.
Don’t kid yourself.. if it wasn’t the truth, I wouldn’t be talking about it!
Preparation for building this type of business is paramount because it includes not only your ability to enroll people but also your ability to guide and teach those same individuals that you bring in. Remember that your business grows through the leverage of the team members below you. You can’t do it all alone and if they have no success they will drop out anyway.
Why let majority of your hard work in enrolling people go right down the drain.. it’s like shooting yourself in the foot over & over again!
It’s always going to work out better when you take the time to work on yourself and only sponsor the few serious people that appear to deserve your attention, than it would be to become a sponsoring machine to the masses who will almost certainly drop like flies when they don’t seem to win the MLM lottery after a few months.
The main point I’m trying to make in this post is that by doing what we’re suppose to be doing to get ourselves positioned for greatness in this profession, we need to be upfront with prospects from the very beginning by interviewing them to see if we feel that they may even have what it takes to make it to a respectable level of value and also to let them know that real money can be earned but only at a professional level.
They have to have a strong desire and a willingness to learn new skill-sets and fundamentals so they can help others to do the same. These actions will ultimately determine their success. Anything less than that could result in wasted time & money on their part.
It’s like going to college for 4 years and doing more partying than learning. You get out of there just barely graduating and expect that everything on your career outlook is going to come together nicely without major struggles. Some people do get lucky but I wouldn’t bet my life on depending on the odds of that being the case for yourself and most of the people that you do happen to enroll. You’ll just be spinning your wheels like I see most distributors doing.
It’s nice to know what other people think, so be sure to leave a comment below.. thanks!
