Are You Waiting Around for Success?

Many years ago I was listening to a company conference call. The speaker used a quotation that has stuck with me all these years.

“Those who want milk don’t just sit in a field and
wait for a cow to back up to them.”

I love the above quotation. I heard it several years ago & it has always stuck with me. It is funny but it is true. Sad to say, many people join a network marketing company & think that is all they need to do. There are always people hyping the “No Work Required” business opportunity. Don’t be fooled by that. There is no such thing.

People, let me tell you a secret to success in this business. . .
Treat it like a business & stick with it!!!

Actually, on second thought, maybe it would be better to treat your Network Marketing business like a JOB. Would your boss keep you around if you worked your job the way you work your Network Marketing business?

That reminds me of a wonderful article I have had in my files:

“Do You Just Show Up at Your Job and Expect to Get Paid?”  by John H. Kirk

Five important things that will help you build a successful Business:

1. Familiarize yourself with the company and the products. Any time you start a new job, there are things to learn. There is training involved. A successful business person is always learning and improving in their skills.This includes attending any company events.

2. Use the Products. This one seems like it shouldn’t even need to be said but I am always amazed when I see people buy a distributor kit, then never buy a single product. I have even seen people working at building their business who have yet to buy products from the company. Really, how can they in all honesty, recommend a product they aren’t even using.

Which brings me to the next point . . .

3. Autoship – If your company offers autoship, you should be on it. Most companies allow you to change your autoship order every month.

4. Be Prepared to share information – Make up a 30 second commercial that tells who you are, what your company is, and what you do. I plan an article on that in the future. Make sure you have something to share: a brochure with your phone number and web site.

5.   Have fun. Find a way to do your business that is enjoyable to you and that fits your personal style. If you like what you are doing, people will see you enjoying yourself and will be attracted to you like a magnet.

Well, there are actually more than 5 but these are some of the most important to get started with.
