I’ve also seen a lot of so-called experts who don’t really understand the important principles to being successful. The problem is they may succeed in gathering names but that’s it! They don’t have people skills, especially when their goal is to make money and they could care less about what the people want when they contact them.

A mistake I made was leaving the success of my business in the hands of my upline. I respected him, and his level of success was impressive. My husband did not support my efforts in the business at the time, so there was no male role model for the men who were interested in joining my business.

At first, I thought that men did not respect me leading them because I was a women. I realized later, that men respect an effective leader and being a woman had nothing to do with it. My own insecurities made it difficult for me to act like a leader for my downline, so I left that role up to my sponsor. That decision was a big mistake…..

THOSE WHO DO MORE THAN THEY ARE PAID FOR WILL SOONER OR LATER BE WILLINGLY PAID FOR MORE THAN THEY DO.

Be of good cheer. Do not think of today’s failures, but of success that may come tomorrow. You have set yourselves a difficult task, but you will succeed if you persevere; and you will have a joy in overcoming obstacles—a delight in climbing rugged paths which you would perhaps never know if you did not sometimes slip backward, if the road were always smooth and pleasant.

Leaders in Network Marketing must be determined to focus on their goals and to coach those they work with to do the same. The following are tips on coaching downline to persevere in the attainment of their goals:

Why isn’t your business growing? Why are clients shying away from you? Why is it that even our friends stay away from you? People do things sometimes that interfere with their business goals for a variety of reasons. A mistake that we most often make is we come across too strong with people and push them away from us.

We turn off people to the message we want them to hear if they feel that we are mostly intersted in them because we want to make a sale or we want something from them. Our power to attract will turn into the power to repel and they will run in the opposite direction when they see us coming next time. Of course, this is not what we want them to do? So what is the alternative?

Have you heard this phrase before: Some Will, Some Won’t, So What 6 Will?

I love this phrase because it is 100% true. I heard this phrase for the first time at a business convention with the Goads singing this phrase in a song. The “6 will” pertains to a level of accomplishment that I was striving for and so this song was motivating to me. There is a reason for bringing up this song now, it is because I read an email today from Mike Dillard that hits home on this subject. His remarks made me reflect back on this song and how true it is in Network Marketing.

Let me share with you the email I received today from Mike Dillard. It explains the number one reason why people can’t sell as well as they could or why, if they are in Network Marketing, they do not sponsor as well as they should. The points made by Mike Dillard in this email are true principles!
