When teams start growing and becoming quite large, it can sometimes be unmanageable to get new marketing affiliates properly trained when they come on board. One very effective way to make sure that they are trained to use the marketing tools that you use on your team is to have a Team Trainer. If your goal is to grow a large team or if you are already part of a large team, consider implementing this concept.



Imagine this scenario. You have a large team, say 150+ members. Of course within that overall team are “sub-teams” if you will, each with a sponsor who is trying to build their business. Wouldn't it be a great idea to put a Team Trainer in place who acts not only as sponsor to their own “sub-team” but who can be a resource for anyone who joins the overall team? This of course has to be someone who is familiar with the home business itself, but also with ways to market the business and with all of the resources that the team has to offer those who join them. A Team Trainer has to be able to answer questions and provide information.

Here are some great ways to utilize a Team Trainer in a successful home business:

• Host at least 2 Team Trainer calls each and every week

• Purpose of the calls is to introduce new marketing affiliates to the team and the marketing tools and strategies used by the team

• Team Trainer highlights current Team Co-Ops being offered to the team so new affiliates can tap into those marketing strategies (successful teams always have different Co-ops available for their team members to tap into)

• Team Trainer educates affiliates on how to use the Team Training Website

• Team Trainer provides an overview of the marketing website options available for affiliates to use (either replicated or custom designed) in marketing their business

• Team Trainer assists affiliates with back office features of their marketing system to use in managing their business and stream of prospects

• Team Trainer promotes the team's mission statement and philosophy

• Team Trainer helps affiliates with goal setting

• Team Trainer points affiliates to professional development resources to help them grow as a leader in their business

• Team Trainer walks affiliates through resources to set up their business – using 1-800 numbers, tax benefits, incorporating or establishing business as an LLC, etc.

Now might be the time to take a look at your team and determine if there is someone who is knowledgeable about the business and product/service, loves to teach, and willing to share some of their time to help others grow.

A Team Trainer can be an invaluable resource for any team. If you haven't considered this for your own business, you might want to give it some thought.
