Women Are Better Network Marketers and Men Can Learn
Men and women are built differently. They are different physically and mentally. While men do not desire to ask for directions women will ask. Men love power machines, trucks and fast cars, and tools. Women love flowers, make up, and doing their nails.
Women tend to enjoy a trip more than men. For example when women walk from their car to a building they look at the flowers and make sure they are not walked on. They subconsciously care and love the beautiful scenery. Men will just walk through the grass and step on the flowers because they desire the quickest way to go from point A to point B.
Now this does not apply to everyone but statistically this is a small difference the way we think.
Are women better network marketers?
Women statistically are better network marketers. However, men have the ability to learn. Women care more about relationships and they listen.
Creating relationships is very important in order to be successful in network marketing. People need to know us so they can determine if they trust us. When people trust us they tend to listen more. Creating relationships will increase our network. More people will increase the chance for people to follow us. How can people follow us if they do not know us?
Men do not care so much about relationships. They want the quickest way to get a sale or get people on their down line. Men can learn by getting out of their comfort zone and start creating relationships. When they start the best tool in creating relationships is learning to listen.
Women have the art of listening. Most people desire someone that will listen to them. Think about it for a minute. I myself desire someone to listen to me. When I have someone listen to me I feel like I am on top of the world. Men love to be on the top so much they don’t want to listen. They desire people to listen to them. Men do have the ability to listen. Listening will help us determine what people need. We may have the ability to help them. People trust better when we help them.
Be a mentor with a servant’s heart.

Listen and You Will Hear
Hi Jared,
It's a very simple thing, but many people do not have listening skills. Yes, Listening is a skill. I don't know if women are better at it or not. All I know is that if you dont listen to your prospect you will never know what they are looking for or how you can help them. You will leave alot of money on the table!
Really listening is actually hearing what is being said, and not just blaa blaa blaa. Think about how you listen to others. One of the excercises to develop listening skills is asking yourself this question, "Am I really hearing what they are saying, or am I waiting to talk?" If you are only waiting for a break in the conversation to say something, chances are you did not really hear what they were saying, and they will know you didn't hear them.
Listening is a free way to make money from your prospect and I feel anyone can develop good skills. When your prospect feels as though you do relate to them because you know what is important to them they will be more apt to do business with you. Pretty simple stuff...or is it?
Great point you make in your post. More people should really listen or develop the skill to do so whether a man or a woman. Thanks for the post.

I AGREE!
I'm building my network through social media, taking time to get to know people because I am not selling anything, I'm offering help. My man sponsor sees things differently. It's sale, sale, sale.
