Are You Trying To Reinvent The Wheel?

Don’t try to reinvent the wheel in your network marketing business. Try not to be a stubborn pupil who insists on learning things the hard way. One of the keys to your success in this business is duplication.

The seasoned network marketers in your company and others who joined before you walked the road ahead of you. They have imprinted their footsteps along the way. Follow their lead, take their advice, and do what they have done.

You may not want to try EVERY method they recommend, but you should try several of them. Do what the successful people do in order to become successful yourself. They have left you a roadmap. You do not have to come up with all kinds of new ideas in order to build your business.

Take a cue from the leaders in your company and do things their way. They have paved the way; take advantage of it. There are certain marketing methods that others in my company use, including my sponsor, that I just don’t care for. So, I have chosen other methods they use that fit my personal style.

Network Marketing YOUR Way

Network marketing your way is the only way to go. Just like the Burger King mantra, “Have it your way”. If this is not the case, then you will not succeed. Even though this is a business of duplication, and you take cues from your sponsor and others in your upline, you must still do things your way.

Imagine trying to build a business, but you despise everything you are expected to do to be successful. Back in the old days of network marketing, we were told to drag family and friends to meetings, talk to everybody we came in contact with about our business, and pick up the phone and make cold calls.

Many people still use these old methods, but I would absolutely not be in this business if those things were necessary to build my business. I am fine with following guidelines and using training provided by my company, as long as it is in line with my ideas and my personality.

Don’t you feel the same way? Don’t you decide which of the marketing methods suit your style and use those instead of the methods that you find annoying? Nobody wants to build a business with a sense of dread. We want to enjoy this journey and have fun along the way!

Network Marketers Need Mentors

Network marketers need mentors, and the value of a good one is priceless. These people should be trusted friends and advisors who know the ropes. There are so many people in my company who I trust completely. I would probably jump off a cliff if they told me to!

Okay, I am exaggerating here, but you know what I mean. There are just some people who are not only successful marketers, but they are also brimming with honesty and integrity.

I have found that the best and most successful people in this business truly care about helping other people succeed. They are not just in this for themselves.

Avoid These Internet Marketing Pitfalls

If you want to be successful in internet marketing, you should learn to avoid a few pitfalls. This advice is meant to prevent you from following in the footsteps of those who made these mistakes. I hope that you will especially take heed to the first pitfall. It can put you in financial jeopardy in a hurry.

Don’t quit your day job too soon. Many people jump on the home business bandwagon and believe that they will soon be swimming in the sea of wealth. Believe me, this is usually not the case. It will take a lot of hard work and maybe even a couple of years before you will see a big jump in income.

Don’t jump from one company to another. There are exceptions to this one. There are times when leaving one company for another is the best thing to do, but you should not make a habit of it.

A distributor with my company recently left after four years, and she joined another. Some of those in her downline followed her, so of course a few feathers were ruffled. Even though this may have been the right decision for her, she may be known as disloyal and fickle.

Don’t become too skeptical. We have all heard the hype and been sold a bunch of lies in the past in this industry. That will probably never change. However, try not to become too jaded as a result. Sure, the scammers are out there, but so are the good guys.

Some people actually believe that every MLM is a pyramid or a scam, but we know better. We know that it is a wonderful opportunity to work from home and create better lives for ourselves.

Choose the MLM Business That Fits Your Personality

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.
