If you do not choose the MLM business that fits your personality, you will not last long in the business. If you are forced to do things that you detest in order to build your business, you will never be successful.
Here is a perfect example. I do not like home parties. I don’t like jewelry parties, home décor parties, makeup parties, candle parties, or kitchen gadget parties. I would rather have a root canal than attend one of these functions.
Therefore, joining an MLM company that is based on home parties would be a foolish thing for me to do. Home parties are an option in my company, but they are not mandatory. Other distributors say that we should all participate in at least a few of these in order to be able to train new distributors.
I wholeheartedly disagree. Our company provides detailed training in home parties just as it does with other areas of our business. Why should I feel obligated to try each and every method that my company recommends? The answer is simple: I don’t.
Most people will simply not join a business opportunity that mandates how they should run their business. I would never join a home party business when my only interest is in building online.
On the other hand, for those of you who love home parties, then that type of business is perfect for you. You will do well because you will enjoy what you do. Those who attend your parties will see your excitement and it will be contagious.
There are companies who teach their distributors to approach their friends and family, or their warm market. My company recommends it, but I don’t spend much time on it. I have set up an email signature with a little blurb about my business. I also have a web decal on the back window of my car with my website address.
As a result of these two things, my friends and family know about my business. I never had to approach them and make them uncomfortable because I told them about my new candle business. Even if you don’t ask for a sale when mentioning your new home business, it is inferred in your message.
If my warm market is interested, they contact me and ask me questions about my products or my business. It is true both with your warm and cold market; prospects that come to you are better prospects.
