When The Going Gets Tough - Stick to the Plan!
When The Going Gets Tough - Stick To The Plan!!
If you are like many marketers out there you can get discouraged when the
leads aren’t coming in as expected and your sign up conversion rate keeps slipping. Oh Woe is Me! What to Do? If those are the questions that you are asking yourself then ask one more… And Make It This Question! HAVE YOU STUCK WITH YOUR PLAN OF ACTION? Chances are that you have not. Why is that? It is because you have not stayed focused on the big picture. What is the big picture you say? Very simply put, The Big Picture is to Market YOU and be Persistent with the Plan.
Too many people when the “Going Gets Tough”, change the plan and quickly try something new. This new “Thinga Majig” that was advertised in the Internet guaranteed to send you thousands of leads daily and you have to do nothing (except reach into your wallet) Why do you need this? You DO NOT. Stay the Course and Stick with the Plan. If the Plan is solid then you must change your application of the Plan.
Network Marketing is simple but no one ever said it is easy. If you want
success you need a Plan and you need Persistence. Let’s talk a moment
about the Plan. The Plan is a set of objectives that you will be doing in a
well thought out manner on a daily basis. Yes a daily basis. This does not
mean you do the same thing everyday but rather a series of things every day.
Here is an example of some of the things I do.
- Review my daily plan from Outlook Express
- Check for any team phone calls
- Check my MFF Back Office for new leads
- Review any mails from Direct Matches
- Send out emails to Direct Match subscribers
- Review my Dlouhy Vita group New Blogs
- Take notes on ideas from these new blogs for my future blog articles
- Every 3rd day send out emails to List Joe and Viral
- Return Phone calls to new prospects
- Work for a minimum of 1 hour my traffic exchanges
- Start composing new article for Sunday blog
- Listen to archive calls and get new ideas
This is just a partial list of what you can be doing to market YOU.
To make matters workable I set the time for my tasks through out the day.
Where do you get ideas for your Plan? Well I have some very good
Masterminds that have helped me through out and a special thanks to Bob and Anna Bassett in Ontario, Canada and Daniella Riess in Florida. Also, thank you to the other Masterminds that I have listened to on archived calls as well as regular weekly calls. If you have questions about methods that you are using talk to your sponsor. He or she will be glad to help you. Believe it or not sometimes your questions and ideas help them as well. Information is always a 2 way street. Ask your own mentors what they do and copy them.
The next idea is Persistence. This does not mean that you become a single minded robot that does the same thing over and over. Rather it means a sustained effort with the correct plan to achieve success. The starting point for all success is the desire to be successful. It is this persistence that transforms desire into success. No matter what the plan, it has little chance of success without the persistence of effort.
If you start to feel overwhelmed and sometimes confused because you do not seem to be having success perhaps it is time to return to your roots and get re-centered. It has happened to me and I always go back to the
book Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill. This masterpiece is written by a true Mastermind and he seems to get me centered and re-focused on my task at hand. Check out the chapter titles and zero in on what you need and then kick off your shoes and sit down for a nice read or in my case a nice re-read or a re-re-read. If you need a copy of this book feel free to contact me and I will provide it to you free of cost. I can also provide you with the audio version of Think and Grow Rich, now that is a sweet deal.
Sometimes we all need some help in staying focused. As they say “Rome Was Not Built In A Day” and “All Good Things Take Time”. Keep the faith and it will work for you. Network Marketing is a fun filled business that will bring you great rewards and have you meeting really terrific people. It is worth the struggle! Remember this year is going to be your best year ever.
