If you do not have the right network marketing systems in place there simply is no way you can ever achieve anything worthwhile in this industry.
You see with out any network marketing systems in place your success would be Dependant on you and only you! Well gang there simply is no way possible any one person can make it to the top of this business by themselves no matter how incredible they are.
People who let their ego get in the way and try to build their business based all about them are doomed. Ego equals broke in this business.
There is no way you can work with anymore then a handful of people with out having a duplicative network marketing system in place.
A system where you can simply plug someone into it and the system will do the work. You see gang?. People fail?. Systems don't! (good systems that is)
So the key is to create a business based around network marketing systems.
There are three types of network marketing systems I will briefly touch on that you need to have in place.
1) Training systems: You must have a system in place that will train your new team members! You cannot train them all yourself.
Websites are the best way to put this system together. Simply create a training website that overviews in a very easy to understand method how someone goes about getting started with the business.
Weekly training calls are also a great addition to a training system.
2) Recruiting systems: There are two types of recruiting systems that you must have in place. One for your warm market and one for your cold market.
Your warm market and your cold market both play as equal of a role in your business. People who tell you that one is better then the other or not to use one?. Are completely out of their heads. (to put it nicely)
There is a time and place for both.
For your warm market? I recommend creating a very duplicatable system that is based on walking prospects through a series of exposures to your opportunity via 3rd party tools. Such as websites, DVD's, CD's, magazines, 3 way calls, etc.
Then all you do is simply walk your prospect through this series of exposures to your business until they have enough information to make a decision on their own.
The 3rd party tools is where the power is in this system gang?. This allows anyone to become successful in your business.
For your cold market?.. network marketing systems are crucial at this stage of the game. You see where most people in this industry go wrong is they teach people how to build their warm market?. But they shy away from teaching people how to build in their cold market.
And what happens gang is that when the time comes for people to start working their cold market (and it will come) they get lost?. They have no guidance from their upline and they bomb! They try everything?. Cold calling leads, buying classified ads, plastering the mall parking lot with fliers, etc! And they go broke!
You need to come to terms with the fact that the cold market is key to continuing to grow your mlm business?. And creating network marketing systems around this concept is key!
Forget the cold market stuff mentioned above gang?. Learn how to harness the power of the internet to create a massive mlm organization! This is where it is at!
Learn this and then create a duplicative system around this knowledge so that your team can also do the same!
Keep your head down gang and keep driving forward?. Implement these network marketing systems into your business and this industry will work for you.
Although there no hard and fast rule or any magic formula that I can suggest, because any system you decide to create will differ from company to company, you can develop your own turn-key system within your organization.
Please remember that this system was created for your teams ease of use, so all downline members can "DUPLICATE" the general system easily. Everybody needs to head in the same direction as a team and a single minded focus on achieving the team objective is crucial.
Here are some guidelines I can suggest to you:
- Hold local training sessions besides the company's training sessions online or offline with all your team members
- Educate all the team members about proper cash flow guidelines when building the business. Give everyone free material to review.
- Everyone decide how much effort must be put in, for example, a weekly or monthly target volume to achieve.
- Training sessions on how to use online systems that generate leads or using affiliate websites (if your company sponsors one). You may even work together to create your own team website. - Buddy system to minimize prospecting costs (like driving to the meetings together or prospecting together)
- Brainstorming ideas on other ways to save costs (for example: joining a phone plan together as mentioned above)
The key point to remember is this:
Everyone must focus on following the same system in your team!
It is crucial for duplication. Can you imagine 100 people all going in their own direction? It could be the ingredients for a catastrphie.
The ultimate goal is to train a team of independent, cash generating downlines who are MAKING MONEY and helping their downlines to do the same.
Because in the end of the day, how good your turn-key system turns out reflects heavily on you through the success of your downlines.
Ask yourself this, why would you recruit 10 to 20 people one week, only to find 90 percent of them dropped out the following week? If attrition is very high in your network, it is even more so to create a system for your downline.
Let me make a summary of the principles of network marketing success:
1) Cash flow is more important than revenue (
2) Cash today means more leads, more posture, more education and hence: MORE DOWNLINE
3) Expenses can be minimized. Spend only on what you really need for your business
4) Make sure your downline succeed. When you help them make money, they will help YOU make money!
Some network marketing building journeys can be long and trying, however if you keep in mind the "WHEN" it will happen for you, you'll realize that it's the "HOW" that will get you there and "WHY" you're helping people to do the same and seeing them succeed also. Never finish the network marketing race alone without your downline.
