Persistence and patience are the two virtues of a network marketer who will be successful in the business.
Success begat success
You have to be successful first before you can find people to join you in your organisation to become as successful, if not better than you are.
Not everyone is a born leader. Even you have to learn the ropes of the business like everyone does before you.
To teach and to coach your down-line to be as successful as you are is easy. Here are some tips:
One-man show
Everyone has the same amount of time every day. You can only put in some hours in a day in your business. There is a limit of number of people you can recruit or customers. Remember the Law of Diminishing Returns? There will come a time where the same of amount of effort you put in will not yield the desired results as when you are just starting out. The reason is that the amount of people you can prospect and see around you have reached a saturation point.
You need a fresh perspective and resources to recruit more business builders and customers into your network. So, the next obvious step is to find someone to carry on to support and build your organisation.
Knowledge transfer
The person you should look for is someone who can duplicate what you do to be successful. Transfer everything to them about your work etiquette, abilities, motivation and work culture as if they are your clone.
Develop skills
When you are able to clone a new business builder to develop the skills you have and become successful in his own right you have made yourself a good leader.
Business builder are people you will be cloning as they will be able to expand your network further and exponentially if they are able to clone themselves and repeated what you have done to them. Unlike customers, you can recruit them any where to buy your products and services. You do not have to spend much time in the intricacy of the business to them like you do for those who wish to make a career out of it.
Long-term goals
Spend more time with your business builder so that your skills, prospecting ethic and energy rub off to them. Watch out for those who are too enthusiastic who wish to make a lots of money and profits overnight.
People who set too high a goal which is unachievable will not last long in the business. They are too impatient and probably they are not in for the long term.
Network marketing is not for those who want to be in the business for the short-term gain, make some fast money and move on to another business. They will be very disappointed that network marketing is for people who have a long-term plan, at least for 4 to 5 years in order to build a successful organisation and are able to reap the residual income they have generated.
Committed to success
Look for a business builder who has a burning desire to learn from you. Of course he must have sufficient time put aside each week, not just a casual part-timer who has no commitment for the business. Of course you can train part-timers if they have the motivation and the will to make a change with their life.
Duplicate cloning
Your commitment and hands-on in running your business will show them that you meant business. Network marketing is all about team work. You cannot be successful alone provided you want to sell to the same customers over and over again. Your down-line also can be successful alone too. Everyone needs to build their organisation. It is important that you can clone your down-line just as they would clone themselves with their own down-line.
