Are You Able To Save People’s Life With Network Marketing?



Read More: Leadership  |  Personal Development

 The network marketing industry is often seen as controversial. When you join a network marketing company you are then faced with the intimidating job of telling your friends and family – what will be their response?

But why would one be so afraid of confessing such a thing? Is a career in network marketing really so bad?

The problem is that when a network marketing rep tells others about their work with a sense of shame, however hard they try to hide it others can sense it straight away. This isn’t a very encouraging way to talk about an exciting business opportunity! It reinforces the wrong impression about MLM – an impression many people wrongly hold.

Network marketing can be likened to a knife. What is a knife – what does it mean to you? Is it a useful tool, possibly for saving people’s lives? In the hands of a skilled surgeon it certainly is. Or is it a weapon to be feared and dreaded? This is what it would be in the hands of a murderer! But the knife is the same, it is just the use and the impression that changes.

Network marketing is much the same.

Network marketing reps who treat their prospects as a resource to be exploited are not using the network marketing tool in the right way. Like the surgeon, the network marketing rep should be careful and precise – and use their tool for good. Network marketing is a career which works best for those whose intentions are honorable. If you really want to help others achieve their true potential then you will truly be like the surgeon.

How exactly does one do this? The secret is not to be shy or seem embarrassed when you talk to your prospects. Talk about your network marketing opportunity with conviction and confidence – why would it be otherwise? Believe in your own mind that you have a way to release people from poverty and lead them to a better life, and this will shine through whoever you talk to. If you feel yourself that you are exploiting others by sharing your network marketing opportunity with them then you will! Your belief will betray you and you will look bad – the murderer using the knife, not the surgeon. Be proud when you tell others what you do.

The same applies to your product. If you believe it is a great product that can deliver what it claims (and why would you be selling it if you didn’t?), it would be a crime to keep it from others. You have a responsibility to tell as many people as possible, and to allow as many people as possible to benefit from the product and the opportunity to make money from it.

Don’t forget, as a network marketing leader your job is to help others succeed. You must do your best in trying to help your downline achieve the best possible success. And if they see you being ashamed of what you do, how will they react? Show them that you are the surgeon and take the lead.

Remember, in network marketing, the greater the number of people in your network, the more opportunity you have for spreading the good fortune and helping others to benefit from a great product. Use it in the right way and believe that you have in your hands a great tool to do good.

Haha Joe. I used to behave

Haha Joe. I used to behave like you too until I realized that there is no need to do that.
Right now when I feel that I am actually trying to help people, the belief is totally different.

When you have the right belief, your results will increase many times over.

All the best

Take Pride

I agree with your article. Taking great pride and having strong belief gives me the confidence which makes sharing so easy.
