These are some of the major factors which every network marketer has to look into and try to follow inorder to succeed.
Products! Products! Products!
- Start by using the products
- You must be convinced that they are good and have a story to tell
- What are the features, benefits and the advantages over the competitors?
- By drawing on your own experience of using the products in making these points, you will be convincing and persuasive.
Know Your Company
- Learn as much as you can about the company.
- Meet the management personally and visit their offices.
- The more knowledge you have, the more effective you will be
- Find out the following: Who are the owners and what are their track records?
- How long has the company been in business?
- What is the sales volume and how fast is the growth?
- How many distributors are there and how fast is the network growing?
How much am I paid?
- Understand the marketing plan
- Study the plan from the company
- Ask your upline to explain
- Know what bonuses are paid on sales made by you and the downline
- Find out what is the effective pay out rate
- Learn to work out how much money you and your group are likely to make, given certain assumptions.
You are your own boss
- You are now the boss of your own business, which means you can work as hard or as little as you want, and wherever you want, since there is no territory.
- But if you want to do well, you must be prepared to work hard and smart.
Things to do list
- The To-Do List is the time management tool that every time management book or guru will tell you to adopt.
- Do yours up every day without fail either in the morning at the start of each day or in the evening of the previous day.
Working from home
- You can work from Home.
- John Milton Fog, author of The Greatest Networker in the world started his business from the garage of his house.
- The fastest growing industry in US today is home-based businesses.
Involve your spouse in the business
- Make your family part of your team.
- Teach your entire family how to answer your phones
- Get them excited about helping you serve your downlines.
- Praise is the best motivator.
- Tell others ( in front of your family) how good your family members are at answering the phone.
Teach your family to answer the phone
- Smile and use a pleasant business greeting.
- Take messages.
- Convey concern to every customer
- Close with “ Thank You very much”
When you use the phone put a mirror by your desk
- Sometimes we are not conscious of our emotional condition.
- By looking at ourselves in the mirror, we will be able to see our mood at that moment.
- We could give a smile to ourselves
- Strangely, that will change your tone on the phone.
- If you feel better inside, you will sound better on the phone.
Be Accessible
- How easy is to find you?
- On many occasions when someone does mention that you are a bit difficult to locate, did not simply dismiss him? Pay attention.
- Make it easy for them to buy from or join you.
- Have a mobile phone, answering service, e-mail or voicemail; whatever it takes be accessible.
- If they can’t find you they will find someone else.
Getting Back
- Ever left messages and never get a return call?
- Talk about him – not about you!
- Leave a choice of timing when you are available to take the return call. Provide at least two.
- Your Weapon – The Notepad
- Keep a notepad with you all the time.
- Ideas will come to you at very odd times.
- Jot them down and don’t lose them
- Use Notes to jot down questions, ideas, reminders, or anything you would write on a notepad.
Success Journey
- Keep a journal of your dreams and goals.
- Keep a record – a journal – of each day’s plans, as well as a weekly, monthly and yearly plan.
- You are much more likely to achieve your dreams if you write them down and review them each night before you go to sleep.
- When you get discouraged, look back over your journal at all you have accomplished. Your spirit will rise. You will be ready to continue the Journey.
