Success Is A Commitment Not An Accident: A Real Expectation -- Part IV

What is it you are going to put into your business? You need to know ‘why’ you are doing the business, and you need to know how to do the business. When you know ‘why’ the ‘how’ can be learned. The ‘why’ has to come from deep inside. Nobody can give you a ‘why’ then give you a ‘how’ and encourage you. The ‘why’ has to come from within you.

You first need to know what you want before you can know what you are going to put into the business. Some people were sold the idea and false promise of making $30,000 per month in 12 months starting from ground zero without any knowledge, skills or know how to build the business. That is not a realistic expectation.

Most of the money made in network marketing is based on sales and recruiting. What is a realistic expectation for anyone entering this business? You want to think in terms of long term growth and stable growth. Studies show if you sponsor just 3 people every month, just average performance, it would get you an extra $70,000 a year after 4 years working 1 to 2 hours a day 5 or 6 days a week to prospect and follow-up with prospects.

Most people will quit the business after 4 months when they realize they will not achieve their financial dreams as quickly as it was presented to them. They are cheating themselves by trying to find a new and better opportunity. They don’t know what it takes to build a network marketing business, and they don’t understand the economic and tax benefits the business offers. That is why the right training is important for you to acquire the necessary knowledge, skills, experience and expertise to build your business.

Your consistent effort over a long period of time will bring you success. Consistency is very important, because it shows who you are and what you are doing. If you consistently work toward your goal, you will move forward.

Studies show 50% of new marketers never heard from their upline and 75% are dissatisfied with their upline. Who is going to help you? Are you going to be there for your downline? You don’t need to be a superstar to be successful in this business and to earn a decent income. You only need to be consistent overtime.

At Successful Network Marketing, we can align you with the right resources. We can align you with people who are leaders, people who are becoming leaders, and people who want to become leaders. You will be among people who are motivated to build their businesses. You will be among the top 10% marketers. King Solomon said “He who walks with wise men will become wise, while the companions of fools will suffer harm.”

The attitude and beliefs of the people you hang out with will rub off to give you the ‘how to’, to encourage and to motivate you. You will need to become positively aligned with successful leaders who can energize you about your business. Believe it or not, there will be days when you and others will question your sanity as your business takes time to get off the ground.

There will be days when you will doubt if you have the stamina and skills to make your business a success. There will be days when you will doubt if you will ever figure out the secret of creating wealth. There will be days when fear will tempt you to avoid the pain of prospecting and building relationships with your business partners. There will be days when the ‘nay sayers’ will try to erode your confidence in your company, yourself, and network marketing. And, yes, there will be days when you will reconsider your confidence in your own dreams.

But you and every potential leader in your organization can plug into quality training which is critical for your success. You will need strong leadership and coaching to keep you accountable to someone who can help you stay on course with your task to turn your dreams into realities. “He who walks with wise men becomes wise.”
