Home based business…

building is about CONVERSATION.

The words you use- and do not use- can determine much of your home based business success.

In network marketing, you must FIRST come across a certain way-whether social media, facebook, twitter, LinkedIn, or just over the cell. You must sound comfortable and make the prospect comfortable.

Opening up conversation with people is for many an uncomfortable task.

It shouldn’t be.

Conversation is the secret to this business, and there are 5 very easy ways to open up a Network Marketing conversation with someone that you would like to meet.

But I must warn you!

DON’T come across like you are “up to something”.

People will read right through that. Keep your focus on serving the masses, and helping people solve life problems with your business and products, and simply wanting to meet a friend you have not met yet.

These ideas are very basic, but few do them when they are out and about.

Here are 5 ways:

1) “Compliment them on something they are wearing or carrying“.

People like to be noticed. Simple and plain. They like to be noticed for what they are “displaying” about themselves. What they are wearing or carrying is telling you a little bit about who they are…

I always start a compliment with a question:

“Would it be ok if I paid you a compliment about something I have noticed about you?”

Or if it’s a guy….

“You know, I don’t give out a lot of compliments, but I like that suit you have on. Very professional. Good cut.”.

This will set up anticipation, and not come across like you are phony, or insincere which many folks do…they have the wrong intentions when they compliment someone.

Plus people will feel good that you noticed!

2) “Ask for directions”.

I use to do this all the time when in a mall in a town I was new to. I would ask if they knew were a particular store was, or a place to eat.

Then I would say I am from out of town, or new to this neighborhood, and asked if they lived around here.

Then I would ask them if they had a family,hobby…etc.

Then I would say….”Maybe you can help me…you may know who I am looking for…”

3) “Ask what they do for a living”.

One of the most powerful things you can do when Networking, is ask a person “What do you do?”

Then ask another question about what they just said.

Then ask another question about what they just said…..and you will start finding out about them and who them might know to help you.

“Gotta card?” is a great way to extend this conversation into a later time.

4) “Carry a book on Success or Leadership and casually ask people if they had read it”.

Then ask them if they like to read and if they read Success and Leadership books. If they do, discuss the last one they read, and one they would recommend.

Get them talking about Success and ask them if they are a Student of Success. You will be surprised at the people you meet that are! And looking for a new future!

5) “Ask for their name after giving yours”.

This one is so simple, but few do it.

“Hi, my name is Doug. How are you? I apologize for asking this, what is your name? I have never had the pleasure of meeting you.”

This is such a simple way to meet people. You even apologize for bothering them for their name, which is a soft way of asking for it, and you almost always get it this way!

Open up as many MLM conversations as you can, and your home business will skyrocket!

Oh…here is one final opener:

Smile.

Look in their eyes.

Nod your head.

Stick your hand out to shake theirs.

And say…”I am sorry,but I don’t know who you are. My name is Mary, I am with ABC Company. May I have your name ?”

Open your eyes wide..

And SMILE as you are starting to build a successful Home based business!

home business fire

Home Business Training

-A “Success Fire” cannot be Started without Something being Flammable.“

Doug Firebaugh

 

The SuccessFire.

In other words, you must become ” Success Flammable“.

You must have some “Success Kerosene” that can be lit, and then YOU must be willing to burn with the Passion of Winning at the game of MLM Success.

You must have a Passion and a Flame of Hunger, Desire, Focus, Ambition, and Willingess, burning within you when you begin your MLM Journey.

You MUST want Success in MLM so bad, that you refuse to live your life without it.

Period.

Here is the Million Dollar Question:

How honestly bad enough do you want Success in your business?

INFERNO Secret:

People will only want to hear about your business, as much as you want to tell them about it.

Do you? And how often do you sapeak to people about your business/ That naswer tells a lot about your true intentions in this business.

Whatever It Takes.

You will do whatever you must do to make it happen. It does not matter. You want it that bad. THAT is MLM Success Flammability!

Why do people fail so much in Network Marketing?

They are doused with the water of:

1) Doubt,

2) Fear,

3) Insecurities,

4) The Past,

5) Lack of Confidence.

No wonder they fail…

If you truly want to succeed, then you must IGNITE something inside, and let it burn…

Like an out of control, windswept, MLM WildFire in your Heart!

W ith the Winds of Hope, and Possibility, Dreams, and Change blowing hard in your life!

IGNITE.

The word IGNITE stands for :

“Inner Greatness Now Initiating Total Empowerment”.

There is GREATNESS inside of you!!!!!!

Ignite the most flammable thing you have in your heart and mind…

The Picture of what you TRULY want your life to be, and start small fires everywhere you go…

Fires of Hope and Possibilities within others, and watch your life catch FIRE till it consumes you, and transforms you into the Network Marketing WINNER you really are!!!!

FLAME ON!!!

To Greatness in your MLM Success Journey to build an amazing home based business success.

MLM Network Marketing Training MLM Success – Rebirth…

A person dies daily, only to be reborn in the morning, bigger, better, wiser.”

Emmet Fox

 

The List:

Criticism
Embarrassment
Rejection
Self-Doubt
Arguments
Stress
Jealousy
Hurt
Pain
Heartache

The list of pain in life goes on and on and on.

MLM Good News!

But there is Good News!!

At times during your day you will feel a little piece of you inside almost “dying” from someone’s words, anger, criticism, and the like with your Network Marketing business..

But –

A seed has to die in order to create the growth. Are you aware of that? A seed has to die to create the catalyst for the new growth to shoot forth.

Life is like that too – it teaches you lessons about growth from the seeds it plants in you daily.

And with the Morning coming, you will know that it is a brand new day and that yesterday has planted its seeds, and now you wait for the growth in you and your MLM business that will take place to propel you to greater heights.

MLM Hurt.

Life hurts at times.

We know that.

But when a little piece of you inside feels like it could die due to pain from other folks – Let it.

The growth of a better and wiser person will shoot up from that seed of hurt someone planted yesterday.

It may not sprout overnight, but it WILL grow.

And you WILL get through what you are currently facing in MLM, whatever seed that is and no matter how painful … how strong.

I promise.

Been there.

Done that.

Got the T-shirt.

I’m still here.

 

Blessings…

MLM Success Resources

 

 

 

1) THOU SHALT MAKE A DECISION TO LEAD.

Simply, there is nothing more powerful in this Industry than a True decision to Lead. It seems when that happens; you literally become magnetized to Success.

How can you tell a True Decision? It is a Decision from the heart, not just the mind.  You simply cannot imagine traveling down any other Path, because of the Success Power in Decision. 

Right in the middle of the word Decision is the word “Is”. If you are looking for the Secret of Success to this business, there it “Is’

2) THOU SHALT HAVE AN IGNITED VISION.

Your Vision needs to be more than just on course or on track. It needs to be ONFIRE! It needs to be Crystal Clear, Powerful, and Hot!  As my friend John Milton Fogg says, ” A leader when they meet people, should either Ignite them, or Melt them.”

It needs to be a consuming Vision OnFire that people are compelled to enroll in and buy into, whether it is wealth, helping people, or changing the world.

The real Power in your Vision , the real “Heat” is in the Fire in your Heart…where the Vision is birthed and ignited, and ignites others hearts with Hope, Possibilities, and Change.

3) THOU SHALT DIRECT, GUIDE, AND NAVIGATE.

You must as a Leader have a plan, a step by step trail, and direct your people down the MLM Power Path. You must guide them along the way to solve challenges, and navigate them through storms that do happen in this business and life.

How?

With your support, coaching, caring, instructing, and believing. Remember, the North Star of your organization and compass for your people is your Leadership. Navigation requires knowing where you are, but also where you are headed, and how you are going to get there.

The Last syllable in Navigate is Gate. You must provide the Gate to Success for others …It is up to them to open it and walk through.

4) THOU SHALT CREATE INFLUENCE THROUGH ETHICS, INTEGRITY, & SINCERE CARING.

There is nothing more powerful and compelling than a Leader who cares more about their distributor’s paycheck, than their own. People are magnetized to it.

And the influence that creates through the ethics that are needed to do it, is enormous. But as a leader, you must always display ethics and integrity to maintain respect with your people.

And sincere caring Leaders know, people don ‘t follow what you say, or what you do, as much as who you are.

5) THOU SHALT CREAT AN ENVIRONMENT OF HOPE, POSSIBILITIES, & EXPECTANCY.

You must create an environment that your distributors can grow and thrive in. An environment of hope and possibilities, and that the hope will be crystallized into Success. You must also create an environment of expectancy.

Leaders know that people usually rise to the level of their expectations. Believe and expect big things from your people. As oxygen is to a population, your belief is to your organization.

Let your distributors “breathe the air of Success“, in MLM, which gives life to every distributor, and creates an Incredibly Empowering environment.

6) THOU SHALT EMPOWER EVERYONE THROUGH BELIEF, KNOWLEDGE, & ENCOURAGEMENT.

Leaders have an incredible chance to empower people, and change their life through this business. And the greatest way to empower is to believe in them. The 4 most powerful words in network marketing are “I believe in You!”

And through the Power of Encouragement, like “You can do it!” and the proper knowledge of how to do it, you will become their biggest supporter, and cheerleader. Believe and encourage your people…through Heart Power and the Fire of Belief.

7) THOU SHALT BE OUT IN FRONT, NOT STUCK IN THE BACK.

Leaders are a lighthouse in a sea of adversity and frustration in network marketing. And your distributors must always be looking forward.

Being out in front also means doing what your teaching them and setting the example.  You must understand, your distributors quietly watch you, and observe.

You will never know it, but they are watching to see if you practice what you are preaching. If you are not, they will quietly duplicate what you are doing. Show them the way, and lead them through what we a PassionFire call “The New Distributor Fog”…the fog of doubt, frustration, and discouragement. You do that by leading them through the fog with your light of Leadership.

8) THOU SHALT STAND BEHIND THE SPOTLIGHT.

Leaders know: You make the Big Money from the back of the room. Do you understand that? Too many distributors get leadership and what we call “celebrityitis” mixed up. A lot of distributors become a celebrity when they get successful, and to the detriment of their group.

Leaders who build permanent downlines put the recognition spotlight on their people then stand behind it, and stay there. Yes, Leaders do need to be visible to inspire, but the Power lies in recognizing and celebrating every little attempt or success to encourage and build the distributor’s confidence in this business.

Why?

People will do more for recognition than money. That’s Leadership 101.

9) THOU SHALT CONSTRUCT, NOT CONSTRICT.

We at PassionFire believe in the L.I.A.C.P. Principle.

Leadership Is A Construction Project.

First, you must build you, and construct the skills; attitudes, habits, and thinking you need to succeed in this business. Then you must construct your people, through all we have been talking about in this article. And then you construct your business.

Most distributors constrict their business with a very limiting self-focus, and looking out for #1 attitude. The average distributor has a selfish focus. Leaders have a selfless focus.

And that brings us to what we call “The Leadership Paradox”. You must construct your business by building you first, downline second, and business third, but all at the same time.

If you understand what I just said, you are on your way to building a retirement vehicle.

10) THOU SHALT BUILD RELATIONSHIPS, NOT JUST DISTRIBUTORSHIPS.

What is the Secret to building A Million-Dollar Distributorship?

You build Million Dollar Relationships.

Remember that it is easier to walk away from a business than a friend. Get to know your folks, especially your Leaders as people, not just a paycheck. Get to know their dreams, what is important to them, and especially what they value. Spend personal time with your leaders, and develop that bond. Visit their house, their workplace, “Their world”, and make it a part of yours.

And always, always, always put their interests ahead of yours. That will create amazing loyalty, which will create amazing motivation, which will create amazing paychecks.

Get on a ship and sail on the sea of relating, and when people discover you are truly interested in them; that is when your paycheck becomes truly interesting. 

These are the “Ten Commandments of Network Marketing Leadership 2005.”

I encourage you in this new Millennium to start engaging your business through the eyes of a Leader, not just a distributor. The impact on your business will be enormous.

And once you discover how the journey of leadership will transform you in all aspects of your life, the year 2000 will be for you without limits, barriers, or failure, and you will be on a one-way track to all the success you ever dreamed of.

And that is what Network Marketing is supposed to be about…Unbridled, and unstoppable Success.

And the Secret?

Leadership!

In home business, one of the biggeest secrets to this business is not working SLOW.

Working this business slow, whether online or offline, will frustrate you and even possibly take you out of this business.

Every home based business owner knows this that has ever succeeded.

FAST is so much easier for some reason to work.

FAST stands for:

 Furiously Accelerating Success Today.

 That is exactly what happens when you go FAST.

I had an upline tell me when I was active, who has done 6 BILLION in this industry, that you need to work your business fast, not slow…and it would become easier…

Oh…he was SO right!

If you work this MLM business fast, and put the pedal to the metal, it becomes easier and more rewarding…

Why?

The 3 Reasons for Working Network Marketing Fast.

1) “The right people have a tendency to show up if you work this business fast….and the wrong people have a tendency to show up if you work this business slow…”

So true…

Because when you work this MLM business fast, you exude a certain energy that attracts the right people, and also they can see that you are someone that really wants to get things done.

2) “You have a tendency to be more focused, more determined, and more serious.”

People who are determined, focused, and serious, do not play with this business….they are like a heat seeking missile…dead on to the target and won’t be denied.

Working MLM slow has little appeal to them.

3) “Your thinking and mindset changes…”

When you kick it into overdrive, and do more activity in a day than most do in a week, you will find your whole perspective on this business changes, and you realize what it really takes to succeed massively in MLM, and life itself…

FAST MLM or Slow?

Fast Network Marketing or Slow?

Are you working FAST or slow?

FAST in MLM also stands for:

“Fuel Accelerating Success Track”

Truly, working this business fast is a Success Fuel for your life!

Slow stands for:

“Stagnation (and) Losing Overpower Winning”…

Seems that Stagnation and Losing many times becomes too strong of a force to Win at MLM…when you work slow…

Yes, you can succeed at network marketing working it slow…but most of the millionaires I have met(including my former upline’s success and mine) in the industry have worked it in overdrive, to overcome stagnation and losing in the long run…,

What is your choice???

IGNITE your Home based business and watcha fire start to burn like an inferno in your home business!

Do you understand the Power of one new thought?

One new thought at the right time can change a life forever.

It changed business forever.

Ask Bill Gates.

Ask Steve Jobs.

Ask Ross Perot.

Ask any entrepreneur that has had a new product or idea.

It has changed lives forever.

Ask Serena Williams or Tiger Woods.

Ask Mark Hughes who started Herbalife.

The MLM Perspective Change.

The Power of one new thought can radically change a person’s perspective of what can be done in an instant in MLM.

The mind is magnetized by new possiblities and new thinking…so is the heart.

That is THE Power of recruiting! You need to deposit one new thought of the life that your prospect COULD have,and take them there in their mind. Make it real and vivid. let them “feel” it in their mind and heart!

“Imagine the feeling of….” is the Power phrase that can release any amount of excitement in a person’s life.It can energize dead dreams and a loser’s mindset.

Not having enough Success in recruiting?

Here is a thought:

Paint Word Pictures of a Network Marketing Lifestyle.

“Let the prospect think of what their life and future could be with a direct sales business...with vivid words of what they want to happen in their life, already happening…and then attach their heart to it..”

Then get the application ready….for your home based business.
