3 Successful Habits of The Richest Networkers In The World

by Bob Schwartz

Wouldn’t it be nice if making money in network marketing was as easy as cooking a hard boiled egg? I mean, cooking an egg is probably one of the easiest things you can do, right? You just follow the directions: Bring water to boil. Drop in an egg. Wait five minutes and you’re done. Easy, right? Of course, if you have the instructions right in front of you and you follow them precisely, you can’t miss.

Unfortunately, very few people realize that there is a simple recipe for success in network marketing too. So here it is, the “3 Successful Habits of The Richest Networkers In The World.

Habit #1

The Richest Networkers In The World USE THE PRODUCTS!

Build your 30-60-90 day story. Using the products will give you your own personal story. “I lost 10 lbs. In only one week using Slim Trim X product,” or “I saved over $39 last month on my long distance bill.” You must develop and experience one story in your whole network marketing career. Your personal story is everything. It adds believability and conviction to your presentation. The trick is to tell those stories 30-50 times a month. After that the money will follow automatically.

You must become a living, breathing testimonial for your products. The only way you can do that is to use the products.

Habit #2

The Richest Networkers In The World Expose The Opportunity!

The easiest way to expose the opportunity is by asking your prospects questions. What kind of work do they do, how much EXTRA money are they looking to generate? Find out what they’re looking for. Maybe they only want to buy products, maybe they’ve got money to invest in advertising if someone else would follow-up with the leads for them. Look for win-win relationships. Show them that you care about them! And always remember, the three best things you can say to a prospect are, “I will help you, I will help you, and I will help you.”

You have two ears and one mouth, so be sure to listen more and talk less. Your prospects will feel more comfortable talking to you, and you’ll like what your commission check looks like after six months of applying this tip.

We are in the sorting and sifting business. You only want to work with the willing. If someone is not interested in your business, that’s great. When your’re speaking with prospects, you’ll sign-up twice as many people if you’re not trying to get them to give you a “yes”. All you’re trying to do is get them excited. Have the attitude that you’re making $5,000 a month and that your business will succeed with or without them.

One more thing, remember to relax and have fun. As we preach at Cutting Edge Media, “You can’t say the wrong thing to the right person … and you can’t say the right thing to the wrong person.” Success is only a numbers game. To win the game, talk to more people.

Habit #3

The Richest Networkers In The World COMMIT TO THE BUSINESS!

Do 10% more. One of our good friends from Colorado currently earns nearly $4,200 a week with a nutritional company. Now, does she do 40 times more work than the person who makes $100 a week? No. She just does 10% more. All the pro’s do! She makes two to three more three way calls with her downline than she’d really like to; she goes to one extra meeting in a month when she’d rather stay at home and watch TV; she spends one extra hour a week on a Leadership Training Call when she’d rather be doing other things.

You see, these “little things” are easy to do, but they’re also easy not to do. Do you know why most people don’t do these little things? Because they know not doing them won’t destroy them today. Think about it, people will literally dig their graves with their teeth by eating fat-ridden junk food. You have a choice between eating a “Big Beef” w/cheese and mayo or a broiled chicken breast sandwich. If you eat the “Big Beef” it won’t kill you today, but 10, 15, or 20 year’s worth of this meal may.

Well, there you have it. Repeat all of these simple steps and teach your new people how to do the same. Your downline is not going to listen to what you say; your downline is going to do what you do! If you’re mailing 10 new exposures a day, so will they. If you take your business seriously, so will they. The reverse is also true. If you treat your business like a hobby and get a hobby check, so will your downline.
