MLM Success – Know the SEEDS of Change in Network Maketing

In Network Marketing, You are in the business of Change.

That you have learned on this “BLASTFire” Series on “How to Become an MLM FireStarter” …

But we have mentioned 2 things that are the actual SEEDS of Change, and need to be planted every phone call, every email, every conversation, and every communication…

Every plant that grew to 20 feet tall started with seeds.

Every garden started with seeds.

Every forest started with seeds.

Every Field started with seeds.

Every orchard started with seeds.

Every animal started with seeds.

You and I had to have a seed to be conceived.

And in MLM, Change has to have seeds to be planted as well in people’s minds and heartsâEUR¦

The MLM Millionaire.

Every millionaire in this Network Marketing industry has figured that out. But you must also know in success what the seeds of Change are.

If Change were an apple, and you cut it in half, you would see the CORE.

And at the core of the apple, are SEEDS…

They are the seeds of HOPE and POSSIBILITIES.

Those two things are the seeds that you plant in people’s minds and heart when recruiting. You deposit the HOPE of an incredible future, and the POSSIBILITY of it happening with you and your company.

SEED stands for:

“Success Exponentially Empowering Deposit”…

Plant those seeds and you will grow quite a bountiful harvest in your MLM and Network Marketing paycheck…

MLM Success – MLM Secrets to Controlling Negative Emotions

This is the number one reason why new distributors leave Network Marketing. It takes them out by the thousands, and can be a cancer to your MLM business, if you are not careful. Just about all new distributors go through this challenge.

So will you if you haven’t already. We call it the “MLM Emotional Roller Coaster”, and it can be an interesting ride during the frustrating times in this MLM business.

You will be high as a kite on excitement on week, and then next week low as whale dung. All because of your emotions and disappointments.

INFERNO Secret:

You will be disappointed by people, and what you think is going to happen, but doesn’t, and it is part of this Network Marketing business.

A lot of folks cannot handle the Emotional Dynamics of this business, and your emotions can really be tested, but it is not innate to MLM. It is innate to being an entrepreneur and starting any business.

You must learn to let the downs be not so down, and the highs be not so high. This will give you an “Emotional balance” which will make your new enterprise more stable in your working it.

The M.O.N.E.Y Principle of MLM Success.

There is a Principle I have been training on for years, and helped a lot of our distributors, as well as myself to get through some rough times.

I call it The M.O.N.E.Y. Principle of Success in Network Marketing, and it is one that you can take to the bank.

What is the SECRET for Networkers to create a LOT of MONEY in MLM?

M.O.N.E.Y. stands for:

Management Of Negative Emotions-Yours.

DID YOU GET THAT?

Management Of NEGATIVE EMOTIONS-YOURS! In Network Marketing!

It’s all about managing what is trying to manage you! It is all about contolling what is trying to control you. It is about directing what is trying to direct you and your business.

And understand this:

INFERNO Secret:

Whoever is controlling your emotions — will control your business.

ARE YOU LISTENING?

WHOEVER is CONTROLLING YOUR EMOTIONS, CONTROLS YOU and your MLM business!

YOU ARE YOUR BUSINESS!!

Setbacks in MLM will happen and it will create major disappointment and discouragement, and you MUST not let it affect you long term. Sure, you will get down a little as you are human. That is all part of the business, but you always must bounce back. Every setback becomes a comeback.

The Setback Solution in MLM.

INFERNO Secret:

There is no disappointment so strong that 3 new Network Marketing Distributor sign ups cannot handle.

I had a Network Marketing millionaire tell me last year that she was so discouraged her first 2 years that she nearly quit 3 times, but she hung on to the dream, and learned a VERY VALUABLE Secret:

INFERNO Secret:

ALL Negative emotions are TEMPORARY, and they will subside.

Once she learned that, she knew that she was “In a Mood” and that would pass eventually and she would go to work harder than ever.

There are exceptions of course, but very few. Most new MLM distributors do go through a myriad of emotions the first year, and most never learn to control them. You must decide that what emotions would keep you down for 3 hours, will keep you down for 3 minutes. What used to keep you down for a week, will keep you down for a day. What used to keep you down for a month, only keeps you down for a week or less. Focus on becoming “emotionally quick.” Every emotion that is negative quickly disappears from your life, and is replaced with a positive one.

OK.

How do you control your lows that will come in this business?

1) Talk to Your Upline about how they handled the negative emotions.

2) Read MLM books and continue to learn new ideas and concepts.

3) Ask “What is worth learning from this?”

4) Know that WHO is SUPPOSED to be in your business will be.

5) Know WHO is NOT supposed to be, will not be.

6) Let yourself grieve for a bit if you need to do that. Call someone who has been there and get some understanding from experience.

7) Get back to work asap. Work MASSIVELY to replace the one who “got away.”

8) Continue to pour into your mind stories of those who have succeeded, and the tactics, strategies, and beliefs that developed that Success. Then copy those tactics, and beliefs.

Yep.

You have to control your emotions in Network Marketing, because they will determine about 80% of your first initial success, then they will determine about 80% of the rest of your success when you start your Network Marketing and MLM career.

MLM Success – Secrets of Developing a Winning Mindset for Network Marketing Success

They just have been convinced by others that it is not there, or Success is some thing that is for others, but not them.

People do not fail in Network Marketing.

They quit.

They embrace the lie that they really tried the business, but they will not succeed in Network marketing. They think they failed. If Success has not happened BY NOW, then it just is not going to happen.

Failure in MLM is the natural fruit of the mind as far as quitting goes.

Quitting is the fruit of a Losing mindset.

Most new mlm distributors lack the proper mindset to get through the tough times in MLM or any entrepreneurial enterprise, and they bring it into this business expecting to fail.

Most folks develop what I call a “Lottery” mindset and think that MLM is the lottery and they wait and see what numbers are drawn.

Dumb.

It is called The Winners’ Mind.

INFERNO Secret:

The Winner’s Mindset is a mindset of knowing that no matter what happens in your life and career, you will keep getting up off the ground and continue to move forward till the finish line is in front of you, and you cross it.

A new distributor in MLM often plays what I call the “Try” game.

They are going to “Try” MLM and see what happens. That is a Losing mindset. They make their mind up that they will give this business a certain time frame, and if it doesn’t produce what they want it to, then “it doesn’t work”.

They work their home business on THEIR terms, THEIR Time Frame, not the terms nor Time Frame that MLM requires. And they expect massive success.

WRONG.

Network Marketing requires you to have a “No matter what” mindset, and No Matter What, you will continue to work and do what is required till success shows up.

You see, success in MLM requires many things:

Skillset.

Mindset.

Determination.

Discipline.

Attitude.

Communication.

Focus.

Belief.

Action.

But…

The Winner’s Mindset requires:

DETERMINED PATIENCE.

You MUST create a Patience about this because there is a learning curve to all new skills and careers, and this learning curve is innate to Network Marketing. So that is why you need to look at what your Mindset is going to be, as it will be tested during your early months of your business.

If you study Millionaires in MLM as I have, and including my former upline’s Success and the Success I was blessed with, you will find that their mindset was like a run away freight train running down a mountain. They simply would not be denied, nor stopped, nor slowed down. They were focused on “All out Massive Action” and wanted to win like never before. Failure was not even an option.

INFERNO Secret:

Millionaires in MLM did not take their business for granted. They saw it as their “way out” and went for it.

As a new distributor, or veteran, you must keep your mindset focused on what you need to do to create your home business success. And your mind will sometimes think thoughts that are doubtful, and negative.

That is part of being human. We all go through that, and the Winners in life learn that they can control their thoughts and create the life they want from the inside Out.

The Learning Reality must set in.

When you start getting discouraged, and frustrated, as all entrepreneurs do, that’s ok. It is part of the process of the Learning Curve, and we all went through it. And that is the time your mindset will need to be “I will not be denied” because that is what it will take to get through it.

-Call your upline and talk to them and see what they do when they get down.

-Read a motivational book or listen to an inspiring tape, and see yourself succeeding in MLM.

-Go out to lunch with a successful upline if possible and talk to them and tap into their belief system.

INFERNO Secret:

You can do whatever you make your mind up to do in Network Marketing — as long as it is powered by the heart.

A determined mindset is a fruit of a determined heart. Is your heart really into your business?

Do you have what we call the right “Heart Condition?”

If your mindset is a result of the right “Heartset”, then your success will be well on it’s way.

A Winner always has the mindset of one thing:

CROSSING THE FINISH LINE!

And it takes heart to do that. Never give up and never give in to your doubts as you WILL succeed. But most have more faith in their fear than their future.

If you make up your mind and heart that you will Succeed, then it is guaranteed in MLM and Network Marketing.

MLM Network Marketing Success Training – The Biggest MLM Success Principle

Here is a little known Network Marketing secret….

Most people wake up every morning feeling that they are not truly appreciated, and what they do is taken for granted.

Sound familiar?

Are you aware that according to a recent study in psychology, that it’s only getting worse…not better?

It is impossible for someone to become successful in MLM and a Home Business life without someone cheering them on, and believing in them somewhere, sometime in their life…

But the sad part is….

Most never get any kind of praise, and never have, in their home business life….

And the Hunger for recognition and praise increases…Daily….

Start becoming an MLM “Praise Factory”
..and start finding great things in small and insignificant tasks…

Start saying,” Wow! You are great at this!”or,”Wow! You really look nice today!”or,” You know….I really do appreciate all you do, I just wanted to let you know…’

And if you are hungry for praise and for being affirmed…you become an MLM “Praise Factory”…

Why?

When you praise someone, it is planting a seed…Not in that person’s heart…but yours….because every time you praise someone in Network marketing, somehow in ways we will never understand, it comes back into your life in the form of increased strength, power, and confidence… the elements needed for MLM success in life…

The seed you planted with words in their heart… takes root in your own….

And a “Praise factory” magnetizes you to MLM Success in ways we will never comprehend…

But it does happen….

Praise has almost a “Force” to it that when engaged, it can bring to your life the things you hunger for…by giving to others what they hunger for….

The Power of PRAISE in MLM.

What does Praise stand for?

Power Releasing And Increasing Success Energy….Did you get that?????

Become a “Praise Factory”…go out of your way 5 times a day to touch someone’s heart..and let them feel appreciated..

And the Power you release in your life by simply doing that small thing….

Will bring some HUGE things back into your own life and Network Marketing business…

You’ll find out….

MLM Opportunity – The 7 Hidden Things to Look for and MUST HAVE in an MLM Opportunity

If you are looking for a good or the best MLM Opportunity, and really do not know what to expect or pursue, then this article can help you know what to look for, and what to demand for your future.

It doesn’t matter if it is a franchise, retail store, real estate agency, or MLM opportunity, you should embrace and become a part of only what you deem worthy, and demand that your future deserves the best and you will not settle for anything less. There is an MLM Opportunity waiting for you, and it is the one you really want.

But there are some hidden things that you need to look for, and demand from Your MLM opportunity. Not everyone looks at these things, and if they had, they would have had a different outcome in MLM.

Here are 7 hidden things to look for that you MUST HAVE in an MLM Opportunity:

1) MLM Opportunity – Timing.

Timing is everything in an MLM business. You need to make sure that timing is good for the company you are looking for, and timing is good for YOU. Is the company experiencing growth and momentum? Or is it going through a slow time that could slow you down? Is it succeeding in the marketplace, or struggling? There is a growth curve to MLM Opportunities. Where is it along the curve? That will determine a lot of the future potentia of rapid growth.

Timing in the marketplace is everything for you. Look at the market trends (anti aging, technology, skin care advancements, legal product improvements, insurance product advancements, weight loss advancements, etc) and see if the mlm company has products that contain ingredients or technology that are being talked about in the media. This alone speaks volumes of where the company is in the timing curve.

And how old is the company? If it is too young, it could fold, and if it is too old, it could be stale, and living on past Successes, not current. But there are some older MLM Opportunities that stay current with their approach to the marketplace. My suggestion is start looking for an MLM Opportunity that is at least 3 years old.

2) MLM Opportunity – Seriousness of Owners.

This is a Million Dollar Question: How serious are the owners about a LONG TERM business? If you are going to build a business for your future, you need to make sure that the owners are as serious about your future as you are. There are some that are not unfortunately.

They may talk about it, but you need to SEE it. They need to make sure they make decisions based on long term growth, not short term profits. This is a key sign to look for. Talk to people and see if they have made any recent changes to the compensation plan, or the requirements to qualify for your check, or consistent changes in product pricing.

If they have, and it is not the first time, beware. They are thinking short term profits. Owners that are serious, have proven to do what they need to do internallyn, in house first, and only as a last resort take money from the field. And ask around, and even see if you can talk to one of the top earners, or one of the owners themselves.

3) MLM Opportunity – Product Uniqueness.

Does the mlm product you are looking at have a one of a kind reputation? Does it have a unique marketing proposition?

Is it a truly unique product, or honestly, just another “me too” product or product line? Me too products can fade from view in the marketplace quickly in MLM.

Your products MUST be unique, and no other quite like it. Yes, there can be many skin care, weight loss, make up, nutritional products out there, but the product you are considering must have a unique “sizzle” to it that sets it apart. There are many vitamin products, but what does the product have that makes it unique? This is a HUGE test for long term product viability, as well as what the next products will be like.

An MLM opportunity may have products that come across as sleek, sexy, and hot. But if they are not unique, they will have a limited life span in MLM.

4) MLM Opportunity – Idiot Proof Training System.

A good MLM opportunity will have a training system that can be used 24/7 and can train anyone anytime, anywhere. It does not replace the role of the sponsor, but a good training system will train the new distributors quicker, and with more impact.

This is a brutal truth fact: Most sponsors do not train their people. That is just the way it is, and I wish it wasn’t like that, but it is. Ask anyone who has been in MLM for a while. They will say the same thing, if they are honest. That is why that a good training system, including training manuals, cds, online training, and live events and conference call training is a must. That gives the new distributors a “menu” to choose from and to start getting their training immediately.

And it must be step by step. If the MLM opportunity has these things, or working on them, that is a great sign that they are serious about their field’s success.

5) MLM Opportunity – The Better Business Bureau Factor.

Simply, in a good MLM opportunity, there cannot be a lot of complaints with the BBB. It is that simple. Yes, you will always have disgruntled distributors, that is part of the business. But a lot of complaints form all over on shipping, getting their checks, refunds, products, legal challenges, all must be considered when looking at an MLM opporunity.

Every company I know of that has had massive MLM Success, has had some things against it with the BBB. But they all were minor, and not really of the “you should be concerned” type.

If the complaints are consistent, and current and fresh, then you need to really look into that, as where there is consistent smoke, somewhere there is a fire.

Make sure you do not get burned with that fire.

6) MLM Opportunity – Is the company “product and customer focused?”

Understand this: Without customers, there is no business. Without good products, there are no customers. Without either, there is no use to look any further.

A company MUST be customer and product focused, but business driven. It is the customers and their purchases that create the volume for the MLM company. But it is the distributors driving the message out to the masses that creates the business vehicle. But it ALWAYS needs to revolve around creating a massive customer base, with a great downline helping to build that army.

Check on the MLM opportunity you are looking at, and if they are more business focused, and the products are a mere mention, then you may want to seek an MLM Opportunity somewhere else. Lots of loyal customers create wealth, not one time up front hits of volume, as that eventually goes away.

7) MLM Opportunity – What kind of people does this company attract?

This is HUGE. I have seen so many good companies that have attracted people who want to become scientists, and not distributors. They want to become Ph.Ds, not build a wealth producing business. Some MLM opportunites attract people that are more focused on short term gain, then long term stability. Some companies attract mostly the older crowd. Some network marketing companies attract mostly people under 30.

You MUST have a mix. Not too heavy on either. Why? Overall market viability. Today’s MLM opportunites that are going great guns, appear to have a great mix of ages, and the average age is not too young, but yet, not too old. This is a hidden factor that speaks volumes of the MLM opportunity.

Too much youth, or too much grey, will slow any company down over time.

These are 7 Hidden things you MUST HAVE in the best MLM Opportunity. Check them with who you are looking at, and see where they stand, and how they add up.

Yes, these things are what most people do not look for, and my suggestion is you do. They speak volumes about your future with an MLM opportunity.

You will be so glad you did in the long run, with your best MLM Opportunity.

MLM Products – The MLM Success Formula for HOT Selling Network Marketing Products

And your products and services must be the anchor of your MLM business.

If you are looking at a company that has bad products, so goes your business. You MUST be sure your company has QUALITY Products! QUALITY creates part of the VALUE in the prospect’s mind!

Your products create the value to the consumer, and you must be able to talk intelligently about what your are offering to them.

There are many types of products to market in MLM:

Nutrition. Skin Care. Technology. Vitamin Drinks. Legal Services. Internet Malls. Toys. Food. Cars. Real Estate. Computers. Educational Materials. Make up and Cosmetics. Water Filters. Air Filters. Cell Phones. Long Distance. Electricity. Diet and Weight Loss products. Anti Aging Products. Music. Books. Scrap Books. Religious Materials and Products. Clothes. Personal care items. Mortgage Services. Financial Services.

The list of MLM Product Possibilites is almost ENDLESS.

But here is a warning:

Do Not get too detailed about your products and services you choose, no matter what you choose to sell …you see, people really don’t care, for the most part, about the ingredients or technical aspects of your products and services…

INFERNO Secret:

Most people have one question about your products and services…”How are they going to improve my life..and do they really work?” This should drive your choice of products.

Your job is to educate, NOT SELL, the customer on the merits and value of your product and service line. If you educate them, and you will learn later in TrainingFire how to do that, you will find them much more open to trying them….

The Rules of MLM Product Selection.

What type of products and services does your company provide you? You must know what we at PassionFire call the “Rules of MLM Product Marketing,” to help you select the products right for you.

There are 4 of them:

1) “The Rule of Details.”

Don’t get lost in the details of your products and services…get lost in the VALUE that they bring to the customers life. Learn about what you are marketing, but then blend that in with how it will help CHANGE their life. (CLUE!!!!!!!!!!!)

2) “The Rule of How to.”

You must understand how your products and services do work, but only to the point of being able to talk intelligently about them. Don’t overwhelm the prospect with your knowledge, but EXCITEMENT about the products.

3) “The Rule of Focus.”

Keep your focus on the MAIN product and services….if there are a LOT of them, keep your focus on the ones that are the main ones, and learn about them, and master what you need to talk about them. The others, you need to be aware of, but keep your focus on the MAIN ones, and know how to talk about them.

4) “The Rule of Value.”

You will never market any products to anyone if they don’t see VALUE in what your products. Know what the value is to the consumer with your products, and know, when it is prudent, the overview details of the products to enhance the value of your products.

The 2 Kinds of MLM Products.

Ok.

What kind of products and services are there out there?

Basically 2:

1) Tangible

2) Intangible.

Tangible……

These are the products you can TOUCH, SEE, SMELL, and TASTE. They are the ones you can hold in your hand, like make up, vitamins, diet powders, cleaning solutions, part favors, toys, and the list goes on.

And the Tangibles are the biggest portion of the industry, especially the supplement portion,because most people like to market what they can TOUCH and FEEL.

Intangibles

Intangibles are the products and services you CANNOT touch, see, and feel. They are the services like Internet services, Legal Services, Tax services, Life Insurance services, and similar types of products and services. It is a very fast growing part of the MLM industry.

These products you need a little more detail knowledge about them as to show the customer they can provide VALUE to their life. And the understanding of HOW they work will provide some good conversation with your prospects on the benefits of owning your services.

You need to ask yourself some questions about your products.

“What would be my favorite product and why?”

“How would my products benefit people and change their life?”

“What products does the company sell the most of?”

“What is the average price of each product?”

“What has some great testimonials about your products?”

“”How large is the market for your products and services?”

“Who is your competition?”

“Why would somebody want your products?”

“What products seem to have the most SIZZLE about them?”

Most MLM companies have multiple products, and the one you like the most, you will be the most PASSIONATE about, and will talk about the most.

INFERNO Secret:

The product you have the most PASSION about, you will create the most value for.

The Passion Value Rule for Network Marketing Products.

That is what we call the “Passion-Value” Rule. Know what you are the most passionate about, and you will have the most “Emotional Attachment” to, and that would be the product you will be most likely to talk about the most.

Know your products ands services line that you choose. Understand the overview of them, and focus on the MAIN ones, and keep your focus on those for the most part. Have and understanding of the other products and services, but usually, 80% of your volume will be done by 20% of the products. Keep that in mind.

MLM Prospecting Success – The 5 Secrets to Power MLM Prospecting

Power Prospecting can bring in the results you desire for your network marketing business, and the number of prospects you are looking for.

Power Prospecting is a paradigm shift in what you do to prospect. It is a different focus than most. Most people in network marketing do not Power Prospect because there is no real power that they can connect to to energize what they are doing. Their Power comes from what thy want, and not what the prospect is looking for. And that produces NO power for the prospect to plug into. Many people get fooled into thinking that this new idea is “THE ANSWER” to MLM prospecting. I read about one recently that you are supposed to make it all about you and your Success and make them want what you got. Get them envious…sad.

Lot of prospecting ideas out there, but if they are not focused on the prospect…

Sorry, won’t work.

Sure, there are the “one site wonders” that promise you the moon,and guarantee all you do is send them money and they will show you the secrets to mlm prospecting. And to be honest, some do work, and should be considered. But POWER Prospecting comes from another source, not another secret, tool, book, cd, seminar, or even an mlm training article like this one.

MLM Power Prospecting comes from within you and you MUST CONNECT to that Power that attracts people to you.

And when you connect to these following 5 “Connectors” you will experience a new Power and Surge in your Prospecting that will blow your mind.

What are the 5 “Connectors” to the Power within?

Let’s take a look at the word POWER.

1) P stands for PASSION.

What are you passionate about in your life? That is the Success Driver behind your MLM Prospecting. Not only to find people that can become a part of your “Passion Walk” but also become a part of their own. Passion attracts people to you like nothing else can, and then weld them to your dream like a blowtorch. Passion is the FIRE that burns in the belly, that drives you to go way beyond what you thought was even possible. People are atracted to that like a magnet on steroids.

What are you truly Passionate about even if you are not currently pursuing it in your life? Start pursuing it, with your mlm business helping to drive it and fund it, and let other people be the doorways that will not only help create that in your life, but also their own passion in theirs.

2) O stands for OPENER.

Power prospecting is about being an “Opener”, not a closer. It is about opening people’s minds, hearts, eyes, and futures to what they can be, not what they are. Power prospecting is focusing the prospect on the power of their own dream, and then show them how to create the Opening in their life with your business. This focus relies on conversation, not just a network marketing presentation.

Opening someone’s mind up to what is truly possible is beyond just power, but now you have tapped into PURPOSE which carries with it a whole different realm of power. Talk to them about what they want in life. Show them the doorway with your network marketing company,and then open the door as you describe what their life will be like working with you. And then let them discover their purpose through the Power of opening their “CANS” in life, not cant’s. Be a “Can Opener” and watch people connect to your Power and your energy for Success.

3) W stands for WHERE They Are.

Start prospecting the person WHERE the prospect is, not where you are. Most people in MLM try to grab the prospects’ hand, and drag them into Network marketing. Not a good choice.

There is something we have taught for a while:

Start in their world, and then lead them to yours.

Where you start is as important as where you finish. Do not put pressure on the prospect. That is not Power Prospecting, but Poor prospecting. And you will lose the prospect just about everytime.

Ask questions and get to understand where they are in life, and what challenges they are facing. Understand them before you ever try to recruit the, Understanding turns the average prospect in to a willing prospect.

4) E stands for ENGAGE RADAR.

You have what we call “Prospecting Radar” and you need to keep it engaged at all times. You need to ask three questions:

“Who is around me right now and do I know them?”

“If I do not, do I want to?”

“Are they alone or with a group of people?”

Then simply go over and if they are with people, then listen, and comment from time to time on what is said. If they are alone, then simply go up and introduce yourself with this Power Prospecting Phrase:

“I don’t know you, and I really would like to introduce myself. My name is Tom, and if you don’t mind me asking, what would your name be?”

5) R stands for REASSURE.

Power prospectors are masters at reassuring people. They reassure prospects that they DO have the talent to succeed in life, they DO have the skills that are neccessary for Success, they DO have the personality that Success demands, and they WILL succeed at life if they work with you, work hard, and learn the Success trainings of your mlm company.

Reassurance is NOT hype. Hype is all over this industry, and it really is a turn off to most. Reassurance is simply introducing the prospect to a new world that they could be living, and explaining to them that you will be helping them and walking with them as they get their Success Journey started.

Let the prospect know you will be there for them, and will not disappear like others have. Assure them sincerely and with integrity.

That is what Network marketing Power Prospectors do. Everyday, and with everyone. The Power is in the focus. And their focus is simply to open new doors and options for people that will pour the Power of Success in the prospect’s life and future.

THAT is Power Prospecting in MLM and Network Marketing.

MLM Success Training- MLM Recruiter? MLM Sponsor? MLM Babysitter? MLM Mentor?

We have a tendency to go from one extreme to the other. Ignoring the new person to practically living with them, and everything in between.

There are 4 basic “leading” roles that you establish with your new person. As a Network Marketing Leader, you may move through all of these roles with each person you bring into your MLM organization.

1) The Recruiter. 2) The Sponsor. 3) The Baby Sitter. 4) The Mentor.

1) The MLM Recruiter

So what exactly IS the difference between a recruiter and a sponsor?

INFERNO Secret:

I have always taught that recruiting is getting them in, and sponsoring is keeping them in. One is a defined process for getting them signed up the other is growing their greatness in this business.

I never really got into a hairsplitting term. Call recruiting what you want, but understand:

INFERNO Secret:

Network Marketing Recruiting is the Education and Influence Process of getting to the point of when you become their sponsor, and a lot people who recruit folks in this business forget the sponsor part.

MLM Recruiting can be simply running the numbers, but that is how the average distributor does it. A Leader recruits to become a great sponsor and to build a long term relationship. Recruiting is the first phase of the MLM Leader Role, and Sponsoring is the second.

2) The MLM Sponsor, is the second.

When you have recruited them into your business, now you are their sponsor.

INFERNO Secret:

There is a reason why the word sponsor and responsibility have the same root word. It is your responsibility to become the Leader they need to create an environment for greatness, and for creating independence in your people.

That is Priority One!

You must get them trained. A recruiter rarely takes the time for that because recruiters are focused on recruiting, not growing., signing them up, not growing them up. A Leader always grows people first, then the business.

INFERNO Secret:

Growing people produces the biggest MLM Success harvest in this MLM business!

Be a great sponsor and take your new distributors where they want to go, but remember to also take them to the level of success you want them to lead them to.

3) The MLM Babysitter

Ahhh! This is the sponsor who does everything for their downline, and completely disables their distributors and cripples their growth.

You want to do it all. You don’t think anyone can do it as good as you, and so, you do it all. And what happens?

INFERNO Secret:

Babysitting creates a downline of babies. They never grow into their greatness in this business. They crawl through this business, and eventually out of it.

You as a Leader must become a great sponsor, but understand there is a HUGE difference between Sponsoring someone, and Spoon Feeding them.

IFERNO Secret:

Create a GROWTH environment — not a Kindergarten.

As you mature your people in this business, so matures your mlm business ultimately.

4) The MLM Mentor

This is the Pinnacle of the Role you play in the development of your Leaders, but here is a tip:

INFERNO Secret:

Mentor those who DESERVE it — not those who DESIRE it.

Your ultimate goal as a sponsor is to create a non-stop network marketing success machine. The only way you can do that is to choose 4-5 people in your group to mentor for greatness.

Choose people who have really stepped up to the bat and proven they are SERIOUS about their building this mlm business. Make sure they have shown you that they are worthy of you taking them under your wing and paying very special attention to them in Network Marketing.

Take them under your wing for a year and solidify and grow them into their greatness. Not by totally building it for them, as there are some things they must learn from experience, but totally supporting them in all phases of their business and growth through training, building, supporting, and BEING THERE for them. And creating an extraordinary relationship that will last a lifetime.

INFERNO Secret:

Mentoring in MLM is not for the weak-hearted.

In Network Marketing,it takes effort, discipline, a lot of caring, and also a ton of giving on your part.

You will have trying times, just like in any relationship. But you must understand that if you mentor a select few folks, they can create an enormous network marketing business with you, and will be maximized in this mlm industry. And will stay with you during the tough times. (and there will be some.)

The Recruiter grows In-discouragement.

The Sponsor grows Independence.

The Baby Sitter grows Dependence.

The Mentor grows Interdependence.

INFERNO Secret:

The Power of MLM lies in Interdependence.

And, it is true.

ALL great Leaders in this industry have mentored a select few special people in their downline to extreme success, in MLM and Network Marketing.

MLM Success Training- How to Find High Probability MLM Prospects

INFERNO Secret:

If you do the Memory Jogger WITH THE NEW PERSON-you will get at least 50% more names than if they did it by themselves.

You must RATE them to see who the “High Probability” prospects will be.

What is a “High Probability” Prospect…?

GLAD YOU ASKED!

It is simply the person in your MLM Memory Jogger who will most likely be more likely to do some form of business with you then not…and you need to call on them first to get some immediate success.

Most of the time it will be people who will truly want to help you and want to see you succeed, and they may be few, or you may know a lot of them.

Many people waste their time on “Low Probability” MLM Prospects and it can discourage you, and frustrate you from day one.

Ok.

What do you do to rate them?

You need to ask 7 questions, and rate them 1-5, with 1 being low. And 5 being high.

These are the questions:

1)Does this person care enough about you to help you if you asked them to no matter what?

2)Does this person have a contact base that they have credibility in, and would be willing to call them?

3)Is this person open to new ideas and open to change in their life?

4)Is this person happy and generally positive with their life?

5)Is this person ambitious and willing to work?

6)Is this person open to at least trying a new product to help you?

7)Would this person let you practice a presentation on them to help you?

These are the questions you need to ask yourself about the person. If they score between 30 and 35, they are a very HIGH Probability Prospect.

If they scored between 25 and 29, they are marginal.

If they scored lower than a 24, they may be a good customer, but probably not a very good distributor.

But understand:

Human nature is a very funny thing, and there will be folks that score high, that may not be as good as you think.

And then there will be others who will score lower, that could possibly rock your network marketing world and mlm downline.

But generally speaking, the rating system was very accurate when I was in the field, and usually right on, but again, there were exceptions to the rule, as there are ALWAYS exceptions to the rule in MLM.

The first question is the most important.

If they truly care about you, they will do what they can to help, and a lot of the time, the ones you think won’t be open to helping, can be.

Rate your Network Marketing Memory Jogger and then call the High Probability prospects…you will be glad you did in MLM and Network Marketing !

MLM Leads – The Top MLM Lead Companies in Network Marketing

In the pursuit of finding these top 15 Network Marketing Lead companies, there were some requirements and considerations that went into the mix. An MLM lead is only part of the MLM Lead Success Formula. There were 5 things that we looked at when we were considering MLM Lead Companies.

What are they?

1) Quality of the MLM lead.

Quality of lead is everything. There are some great looking websites out there that look totally rocdking, but we found that the quality of leads when we called them, were less than what you should expect in an MLM lead.

Beautiful site, great looking logo, lousy leads.

That is why we actually had people order leads, and we called them. We called more than one bunch of leads as well. This at least would give us a feeling of consistency or lack of it. The MLM Lead companies we chose were highly consistent in quality of lead, and people who truly were looking for a business. It took us 7 months to complete the research on MLM leads.

2) Training of working the MLM Leads.

Many of the beautiful sites offered no type of ongoing training, and that was something that really needs to be be a part of any good MLM leads programs. There were some that had online training, as well as cds and training series you could purchase. That was good, but the ongoing live training was the best idea, and we found many MLM leads Companies that did just that.

Training also includes scripts, handling objections, presentation, following up, closing, and other MLM leads topics. There are some HOT MLM leads sites out there that truly delivered on this qulaity of MLM leads training.

3) MLM Leads Support.

The support factor was key. Once the MLM leads were purchased, was there somehow support in case of need? Most had email support, some had live phone support, and some had live instant message support. There were sites that offered no support, and if you had a challenge with your MLM leads, then good luck.

The support should be somehow resolving issues that arise, including bad mlm leads, wrong numbers or emails, and general problems. The MLM Leads companies we found that were the best, had a support system. And some type of guarantee also should be part of the network marketing lead program.

4) Targeted MLM leads.

Many companies had different types of targeted mlm leads, including company specific, live tv leads, local leads, gender specific, product specific, area code specific, among others. Targeted mlm leads are the favorite of the Networkers I talked to, as it give people a more focused lead, and a more targeted impact.

5) Pricing of the MLM leads.

This was a huge factor in determining many people’s decision to buy. But to be blunt, you get what you pay for. There are many cheap network marketing home business lead companies with cheap leads, but here is a warning:

Be careful.

Ask if you can try maybe 15-20 leads to see if they are worth the money. Many compnaies give free network marketing leads away to try.

Understand that a great MLM lead may cost you several dollars, and rightfully so.

INFERNO Secret:

An MLM lead purchase is NOT a purchase, but an investment in your business. One good MLM lead can produce tens of thousands of dollars in volume and revenues. If you understand that, then the pricing should not be as important as the quality and training of the Network marketing lead company.

And of course, REPUTATION had a lot to do with the selection as well. Some companies that came across really well, when checked on, did not have a very good reputation for MLM Leads and service.

Soooooo:

What are the Top 15 MLM lead Companies? (They are in no particular order, as all are really great as far as our research would tell us.)

INFERNO Secret:

Do your OWN DUE DILIGENCE before you purchase, but these we found are pretty strong as all scored well in the above areas of requirement.
