MLM Recruiting: The 5 Types of Network Marketing Recruiters in a Home Business

It is amazing.

Every where I have the honor of speaking, I see over and over the 5 types of recruiters on MLM….and they all remind me of animals. Animals have a particular way of creating in their habitat what they need to survive and live on…and to become what nature meant for them to be…

Network marketers are a lot like that too…

Last week I was deluged with emails about the article on “Recruiting the Wrong People..”

My good friend John Milton Fogg emailed me and said he was putting that article up on his Greatest Networker site…

“Wow Dougie! I am stealing this article for my site! Catch me if you caaaannnnn! Great stuff!”

Thanks for the kind comments!

So….

This week’s article explains a lot of WHY folks recruit the wrong people, and you may even see yourself in one of these Recruiting Animals that run rampant in MLM…

The 5 Types of Recruiters in MLM.
The first:

1) “The Snake”…

This is the type of recruiter that deceives and takes advantage of folks and is a cancer to this great industry… This recruiter has one focus….to TAKE and do whatever it takes to recruit you…including unethical things and practices…

Why?

Who knows, but they are out there, and it is a shame… A snake slithers around the ground silently and looks for prey…

Sound familiar? Know anyone like that? If you do…stay away from them as they are bad news…

2) “The Hyena…”

This is the person who simply cannot shut up during a recruiting meeting or call….they are focused on themselves and talk about themselves and like a hyena, run their mouths and laugh a lot all in the name of “look at me…and what I have done…”

Give me a break…

INFERNO Secret:

People come into this business for THEIR reasons….not yours… Keep the conversation focused on them and not you…don’t be like a hyena and dominate the meeting…

Don’t be like a hyena and look foolish to the prospect… Don’t be like hyena and constantly be engaged in bringing attention to you…

Keep your attention on them, and you will have a much better chance of recruiting someone…

For a HOT Training on Prospecting: “How to Create a Tidal Wave of Prospects”

3) “The Cow…”

The Cow is the “Lay around all day and do nothing and chew on CUD…” MLM recruiter… These folks are the less that ambitious people who wander around in MLM and chew on “Failure Grass…” and it ends up CUD….

Cows chew CUD daily…what does “CUD” stand for?

“Consistently Unproductive Daily….”

That’s what Cows do…they do nothing and get nothing in this business…

Brutal? Yes. The Truth? Absolutely!

Are you a Cow in recruiting? Do you MOOOOO? (As instead of working, you end up watching MOOOOvies?)

That is called a CLUE!!!!! GET BUSY and quit chewing Failure Grass and CUD! Success Grass tastes 1000 times better!!!

The Busy MLM Worker.
4) “The Beaver…”

These are the folks that are teachable, and are eager to work and are excited about the business. They have a great work ethic, and a great mental focus, and they are into one thing:

BUILDING.

They are into Network marketing to BUILD and build more…they like to build DAMS….

DAMS are what create success in MLM… The DAM of Belief… The DAM of Action… The DAM of Results… The DAM of Consistency.. The DAM of Prospects ….

You know what DAM stands for?

“Doing All Methodically….”

And that is what they do….ALL…what ever it takes, and they do it Methodically, step by step, daily, and never give up…They prospect, contact, present, follow up, get the decision, and train DAILY! Till they have built a DAM and resevoir of SUCCESS!

5) “The Eagle…”

The Eagle is a recruiter that is in a class all by themselves… They soar above the crowd when it comes to recruiting, and they are sharp and focused in their efforts…

They are totally professional, and have great Leadership skills…they are sharp in many ways and have great communication and building skills…

They recruit from a “what is best for you.. not best for me” standpoint, and always puts the prospect first and foremost.. The eagle knows who they want to recruit, and doesn’t bother with anybody else…

Eagles look for other Eagles, or those who aspire to be… Eagles search out for the BEST in people…and then when they find it, they know they have something to build on…and to recruit…

Eagles are head and shoulders above most in recruiting in their actions, consistency, attitudes, and work ethic…

OK….

Where are you in the 5 Types of recruiters? I hope and pray at least the Beaver…

The MLM Metamorphosis.
INFERNO Secret:

Many a Beaver has grown and evolved into an Eagle over time…

Where are you evolving to?

Your answer has just painted a picture of your recruiting destiny in this industry…

MLM Cold Market Prospecting – The 5 Magic Words

home based business conversation

home business words

Do you ever do Cold market Prospecting?

I inhaled it when I was in the business…it was GREAT!

Yeah yeah…I know…

“Doug…you don’t know how hard it is out there…people are mean…and ugly to me…”

Well…gee…I never had anyone be mean and ugly to me before….(smile)…

I always knew that there were a lot of people out there who were looking for me…and I was looking for them….

A few weeks ago, I wrote on the subject of Net-Working, and how to develop leads within the cold market and truly Net-Work….like a Professional…

I got a HUGE amount of emails asking all the same question…

“How do you open up a conversation with these people you are in front of…” “How do you get these folk’s attention?  And my favorite…”How do you not stick your foot in your mouth?”…(smile)…

When info is free…people do ask…(smile…) There are so many ways to develop an engaging conversation with someone…but in the 10 years I did Cold market MLM recruiting, I talked to thousands of folks, and recruited a lot of people… but one thing I discovered…

The Secret of what Business MLM is really about.

INFERNO Secret:

We are in a business of Communication…and verbiage plays a HUGE role in the success of your recruiting…

I cannot believe sometimes when I do Personal Coaching how lame some folks approach people…a total turn off…and they wonder why this business isn’t working for them…

And on the other end, someone has the words down…but whose focus is so off the mark that they blow a great prospect…

INFERNO Secret:

Iit’s the SIMPLE things in this business that create the Staggering results…and once I found these words I am talking about…I laughed…and said… “How blind can I be?…(smile)…

You see, if you have been on any TeleFire calls, and have listened to any of our PCRs….you would know that we are in the MLM business of touching and changing people’s lives….but that can also be reversed…

The Culture Secret.

INFERNO Secret:

People in our Culture are programmed to HELP people and assist whenever they can….it’s part of our culture… For example…if a friend of yours called you up, and said…

“Hey Joe…I need your help on something…” What would be your instinctive first reply? 

“Sure! What’s Up?” And we all are programmed to lend a hand…. 

INFERNO Secret:

Even to strangers…

So….we figured out that if that was true…could we integrate it into our Recruiting Process?

And the 5 Magic Words of MLM Cold Market Recruiting” came about…

They can be used:

On the Phone… In a letter… In an email… Face to Face… On a cassette… On a Post card… On a thank You Note… On a Birthday card.. practically anywhere you communicate your business in the Cold market….

And understand…

INFERNO Secret:

The LESS you come across like you are recruiting, the MORE you will have their attention….

Simply…people like to feel appreciated and liked, and also worthy… When someone asks you for help, in a lot of instances, you can feel flattered simply by the way you ask…

And verbiage again is important…

The 5 Magic Words of Cold Market MLM Recruiting.
And what are those 5 magic Words….? Check these out millsriversdaschool .

***** “Maybe You Can Help Me…..” ******* 

Simple…but INCREDIBLY EFFECTIVE in Network Marketing Cold Market recruiting…especially when you are Net-Working LIVE and in front of people at a social function….

You will hear so many times as a response… “Maybe you can help me…” “Sure…what can I do for you…”? or…”I give it a try!”

BAMMO!!!!! You are now engaged in an initial conversation of recruiting with a cold market prospect…

The question is….what do you say next???? or in a letter? or on a Post card?? To not BLOW IT???

What value would it be to you to be able to double your recruiting in cold market with knowing how?

I did….quadrupled it….

How?…

By knowing what to say..

Home Business Prospecting – 5 HOT Opening Phrases

home business phrases

home business phrases

Home business

requires GREAT comunication and GREAT conversations.

But they also must be MAGNETIC and draw the prospect towards you with powerful phrases. Many people use words and phrases that are weak and do not IMPACT the prospect at all.

That has to STOP.

NOTE: The Power of your Conversation will always determine the Level of yuur Elevation in this home based business profession.

In the Home based business profession, there are what are called the 5 Magic Words of Cold Market Prospecting…

“Maybe You Can Help me….”

I got more email about this than any other article in a  while.

All wanted to know…

Ok…What do you say?

This brings us to the Golden law of Cold MLM market Prospecting…

“Recruiting Starts after the initial Contact…”

What does that mean?

We found that if we didn’t try to recruit them right off the bat, but waited till the second meeting or even third, our ratio for success went up…

Warning:

Don’t become an “ATTACK RECRUITER”….

Give your cold prospect room to breathe…and let a rapport start to develop a little…if that is going to happen…a lot of times, it won’t due to lack of any interest on the prospects part…

Wait till the second conversation to bring up your desire to seek them for your business, or who they might know…

This is only professional…and you are giving the relationship time to solidify….

INFERNO Secret:

If you jump the gun too quick, you will end up shooting yourself in the foot….

Here are the “5 HOT Phrases for Cold market MLM Prospecting…”…these are mainly for people that you will meet in the business community when Net-Working your business…which you should be doing all the time…

For a HOT MLM Training Resource: “30 Second Flat Cold Calling University”

The 5 Hot Phrases for MLM Cold Market Prospecting.

1) “I am a professional in the community like you…”

2) “I am introducing myself to …”

3) “I love networking with other professionals…”

4) “Maybe there is a way we could help each other…”

5) “Would you be open to some coffee sometime?…”

1) “I am a professional in the Community….” This states an important fact: You are one of them…..

And this will create the start of a CONNECTION right off the bat, and also establish who you are to the Cold prospect…from one professional to another…

2) “I am introducing myself…” This sets up an important paradigm… You are taking the initiative to introduce and meet people in the community, and you are a take charge type of person… And it shows you really want to meet folks…and it shows Leadership…(CLUE!!!!!!!)

3) “I love networking with other professionals…” This states one thing: You value other professionals as a resource… And you also show that you appreciate the fact that networking does work in the business world…and that as a resource, a professional has value to you and your business, and vice versa…

4) “Maybe there is a way we could help each other…” This establishes that you are willing to Increase and Improve your prospects business and life… And also you do care about helping people… plus you are showing Potential value right upfront…

5) “Would you be open for coffee sometime…?” This is the proactive part of it, and it simply gives them a chance to engage the budding relationship…or not. Most professionals do have an interest in increasing their business, so you will get some interest, and some time with them…but if they say they are not interested …

Be a professional…and thank them for their time and wish them well….and see if you can get a card for a thank you note to send them…

“May I at least have a card in case I run across someone who would want your services?…”

Understand…you as a network marketer should be out weekly meeting folks who may need your products and looking for you…but most don’t do that as they stay tied to one or two ways to prospect…

Multiple Lead Vehicles in Network Marketing.

Millionaires in this business have multiple lead generating vehicles working for them…all the time…

In your Cold market Network Marketing Prospecting….make sure…

You put yourself on the other side of the table think about how would you like to be approached…and treated?

Then do it….with these phrases or variations of them… and turn your Cold prospect into a warming up prospect…then a Scorching HOT MLM Prospect.

That will do more for your Home based business then you could ever imagine. HOT prospects are critical and often hard to find. UNLESS- you know how to set their interest on fire.

Use the priceless phrase on your cold market and you will see a huge increase in prospects in your home business.

Blessings…

MLM – Creating a MAGNETIC MLM Recruiting Environment

home based business people

home business magnetic people

Many people in this MLM industry really try to sponsor and recruit folks….but simply never do…and they are not at fault a lot of times, as they are doing what they are taught… 

I have said over and over, I don’t have all the answers…and don’t pretend to…but I do have many due to 12 years of experience, giftings, and great mentors…

And I say this with all frankness, but a lot of folks out in MLM are being taught how to fail in MLM, not succeed…how to repel people, not attract…and no one seems to be noticing… 

I have the honor of working and personally coaching with a lot of people with PersonalFire…as well as TeamFire, and am absolutely amazed at how people are being taught to recruit and sponsor…

And I just shake my head…because they really think it can work! But more often than not…they find it doesn’t…. 

Why?

Who knows…most folks never focus on what REALLY matters in recruiting, only what is EASY to teach and get the new people out there hustling…granted there is nothing wrong with that, if you want them to fail miserably…as most do….

The $100,000.00 MLM Earner has a Question.
So last week I was asked by someone who earns $100,000 a month, what I thought was the reason so many people can’t recruit…and I smiled, as I said “YOU don’t have that problem…”…

He smiled and said…”No…but most do…”

So I thought about it, and came up with a very basic but HUGE problem that should be, but is never addressed, and is sorely needed in the recruiting process… 

And that is creating a MAGNETIC MLM Recruiting Environment. 

What is that? 

An Environment is what something exists and has it’s being in…it determines if it has life…or not. Just as our lives are determined by the quality of our earthly environment, so is the success of our recruiting efforts…

By the Recruiting Environment. It gives your Recruiting Efforts the Life of success…or failure… 

Our environment has Oxygen, among other things, which allow us to live…and the Recruiting Environment needs certain things within it to create a Magnetic and Powerful Recruiting Impact….it’s what we call “Recruiting Oxygen….”

What are those things?

The Three Recruiting Impact Factors in MLM.

1) HOPE. 

You need to create a sense of HOPE when you are trying to recruit someone, as HOPE is the Oxygen of the Environment. You need to create that Hope of a better life….of a better lifestyle….of a Richer and more fulfilling world for their family….and giving someone Hope where they have not had it before will Magnetize them to you and your business….

HOPE stands for:

Heading Onto (a) Path (of) Excellence

And that path needs to be something that is REAL to the person, and obtainable….if you create that part of the Recruiting Environment, your chances just went up 50% of signing them up…

INFERNO Secret: 

HOPE is GOLD in Recruiting….

For a HOT MLM Recruiting Resource: “The Psychology of Recruiting”

2) POSSIBILITIES.

Along with Hope, you must create POSSIBILIIES for the individual with your company and program…the possibility of Increase in Money….The Increase in Lifestyle….the Increase in Recognition…and the Increase in Growth….and it must be a REAL Possibility that can happen…not just some pipe dream… 

You MUST show your prospects HOW it is Possible to obtain what they want out of life….with working with you and your company…You MUST get them to think these Magic words…

“This Could REALLY WORK!”

The Power of Anticipation in MLM.

3) ANTICIPATION.

You must create a sense of ANTICIPATION with your MLM prospect…how?  Simple…

INFERNO Secret:  “Can you imagine the feeling of actually having what you truly want in your life finally? And knowing it CAN happen working with me? Does that excite you?”  “What would it feel like?”  Paint with word pictures as we went over last week….

4) ASSUREDNESS. 

Your prospect MUST feel ASSURED that you will:  Work with them.  Be there for them.  Train them.  Help them.  Support them.  Lead them.  Believe in them. 

INFERNO Ssecret: 

The more sure they are you will….the more Network Marketing MAGNETIC you become….

5) VALUE

You MUST create a sense of VALUE in your Recruiting Environment… 

INFERNO Secret:

No Value…..No Volume. 

People MUST see and feel there is VALUE to what you are doing…and you create that in this Environment by simply saying….  “What this brings and means to your life is…..” 

You MUST show them how you can INCREASE, EXPAND, ENLARGE, and EMPOWER their life and family’s life with what you have to offer…and that will go a long way to creating a MAGNETIC Recruiting Environment for your recruiting success…

If you GOT what I was saying today, then you will have a grasp of the very basics of the things that IMPACT and DETERMINE a HUGE part of your recruiting success…or failure…

MLM Recruiting Oxygen.
INFERNO Secret:

  Just as the environment determines whether we live or die…so goes the environment for your recruiting… 

If your Recruiting is suffocating… 

It may need a Huge Dose…

of Recruiting Oxygen… for your home based business.

Network Marketing Top 10 Prospecting Tactics to EXPLODE Your Business

A home business has rules.

A home business has it’s laws.

A home business has it’s MUSTS!

All three of the above are rolled into one phrase:

You gotta have people to talk to!!!!!!! 

INFERNO Secret:   You drive by more people in a week than you could possibly recruit in a year!!  

So….here is the question….do you have enough folks to talk to???   If not….READ ON!!!! 

These tactics are what we have found to be extremely effective in creating MLM leads and consistent people to call on.

There are hundreds of ways to Prospect…these are just a few to get you started and on your way. Take one which appeals to you…and start immediately…. 

The Ten Prospecting Tactics for Network Marketing.
1) ‘People that care about you.’  

A warm or Hot MLM market is a great place to start…but ask yourself a question…   who really cares about my success and future?

Start there and ask for their help.   You will be surprised how emotions can be of benefit to you…If they do care about you,   They will listen to you and try to help…… 

2) ‘People you truly care about.’  

 Who do you truly care about and want to see have a great life? Start there.   Your compassion and caring will come through and impact in a positive way.  

People liked to be thought of, and this is a way to make that happen, and also to   show your feelings towards their future and Life…… 

3) ‘People that you know that care about the same things… ‘ 

  Who has a commonality with you in caring for the same things? Maybe in a club or church, or an association…..

You have already established that you have something in common that matters to you both…..and your business would be a great way to expand that relationship…… 

Follow Your Dollar in MLM Prospecting.

 
4) ‘Follow your Dollar.’ 

  Who do you do business with? Who do give money to on a regular basis…   whether it is shopping or getting something repaired….or simply paying to have something done…

Who did you buy your car from?

Who sells you your clothing and groceries….  

Follow your dollar…there is a gold mine their in contacts and potential sales…..they may be hesitant about joining you …but ask for Network Marketing referrals…they owe them to you. 

5)’The Goldmine on your desk.’  

 Most folks have some form of a Rolodex or card case on their desk, or in their planner….but most have a listing of who they have gathered cards from…even in their palm pilot…Most Business owners have a great Rolodex…but less than 10% of the cards produce revenues for them….

Turn your or their Rolodex into a Goldmine that produces a secondary revenue source for them, by contacting the cards in the rolodex, and increase the value of their contacts…..   ‘What percentage of your rolodex is currently producing you any type of revenue source?   2%? 5%?   If there was a way to increase that to 15-20%…would you want to know about it?’ 

6) ‘Referrals.’ 

  This business is not for everyone…but everyone knows someone who it is for..   Ask. And it really depends on how you ask, that determines the response…….

‘ Obviously this isn’t for you….but if you were me…who would be the first 2 people you would call to share this with? …..’…and then call them….’ Hello Mary? My name is Doug…and I promised Tom I would give you a call…….to share an idea he thought you would enjoy…….’about a home based business… 

7) ‘Business owners you know…or someone else knows them.’  

Business owners, especially small business owners are always looking for ways to increase value to their employees, and to increase the bottom line to their company.

A lot of business owners have found Network Marketing to be a great secondary profit center for their business……..and they all have associations they belong to….with other business owners……

Good way to prospect them is to ask for their advice on Marketing…..and their help. Don’t forget the Goldmine on their desk. 

The Power of Stay at Home Moms in MLM and Home Businesses.

8)’Stay at Home moms.’  

One of the fastest growing sectors in MLM is the stay at home mom….many women professionals are starting to leave their jobs and careers to spend time with their family…

Values seem to be changing, and with that comes a great opportunity to help them reclaim the income they lost……and they already have proven themselves in the workforce… 

And over 70% of all network marketers… are women…… 

9) ‘Chamber of Commerce.’  

Every city has a Chamber…and most are all business minded….a goldmine for sales and referrals, and even some distributors…..join your chamber or at least attend some functions and get a listing of members……   and here is an INFERNO Secret to recruit….establish a relationship and ask for their help…….and refer business to them…

10) ‘Civic/Charitable organizations.’  

 Join a Civic group to first make a difference in your city…..not just to network. And become known as a go getter and helper, and as you do these things, ask for people’s referrals…..and maybe a time you could let them try your products…….

But understand…..FIRST make a difference in the group, and then you will have a better chance of making a difference with them with your business… 

The Master Secret in MLM.
INFERNO Secret…….. 

Become a Master Networker……..

Get a book/tape on Networking and how to do it……the secret is not who you know…….

But WHO KNOWS YOU…….

Networking is an art…and if you Master it, you will never run out of leads or folks who want to help you   …..

Networking is about bringing value to others First…then let them bring value to you…… and help you explode your home based business.

blessings….

MLM Frustrated – So… Your MLM Downline is Not Doing Anything? – Part 1

MLM Home Business LeadershipMLM Frustrated? So… Your MLM Downline is Not Doing Anything? – Part 1

 

We all go through it…the inevitable….we get some folks in our MLM group…and we get all excited…and we think…

“This is gonna ROCK!”

And they turn into a Rock.

Lifeless.

Listless.

Immovable.

Sets there.

Duds.

All of them.

Sound familiar? And you get to the point that you wanna scream…AAAGGGHHHH!

Been there?

Well…I got some good news and some not so good news….The not so good news is it’s partly your fault….The good news is …is that it can be fixed in a lot of cases…

There are what we at PassionFire call the “5 Downline Reality Questions”…and they reveal what you really need to take a look at when this happens…

INFERNO Secret:

If you are in Network Marketing….It WILL happen to you in some shape or form…it’s all part of Leadership in this business…

The Leadership Factor in Network Marketing.
As a Leader, and sometimes it’s tough being the Leader you need to be, you must ask yourself these questions and be honest with yourself…

I taught this in our group and sometimes we are more focused on blaming others for our weaknesses than ourselves…

“I have a weak downline!” “I have a bunch of Losers…” “I cannot believe I lucked out with such a sorry downline…”

I have heard it all….and even said some myself…we all get frustrated in this business and it is the Leader that is not afraid to ask these questions that can turn it around in a lot of instances…

The MLM Leadership Questions.
Here they are:

1) “What are you NOT doing?” A lot of times, we look at what our downline is NOT doing…and not us…and in reality, they are duplicating us…we get into a “management” mode…and expect the folks to go out while we sit on our “butts”…

INFERNO Secret:

It’s the “buts” in this business that will kill you….

Are you Prospecting? Are you Contacting? Are you doing Presentations? Are you Following Up? Are you Getting the Decisions? Are you Training your people?

Are you providing a growth Environment for your folks?(CLUE!!!) Are you sitting on YOUR Behind too? Take a look at what YOU are NOT doing, and then see if you have been duplicated…in most instances…you have…

2) “What is Missing?” What is missing in the Success Formula? Prospects? Activity? Focus? Belief? Follow Up? Resiliancy?

Does your downline have adequate training?

Does your downline have adequate support from you?

Does your downline have the Tools they need?

Does your Downline have the system they need to recruit?

Does your downline SEE YOU and HEAR YOU in All Out Massive Action YOURSELF?

Oh…I understand…you are too busy “helping” your downline to LEAD THEM…..(CLUE!!!!!)

The MLM Success Model.
INFERNO Secret:

You LEAD in this business by setting the Success Model and Path and Role so they can do what you do….are they missing in their business what you are?

Most of the time…when a downline is NOT doing anything….

What is missing…Is NOT them getting off their behinds…or getting them to DO More….

It is your….MLM LEADERSHIP.

Blessings…

MLM -3 Things in Your Home That Can KILL Your Home Business -Part 1

home business shock

home business shock

My Home Based Business is WHAT?

The fact that you have decided to build a home business is awsome!

And I congatulate you on a great choice…

But…let me ask you a question…

If you have spiders or bugs in your home….do you get rid of them?

Of course you do…and we all know anyone else would as well..

There are 3 things in your home that can KILL your Home Biz if you are not careful, and many times that happens…unknowingly…

An MLM home biz is a great way to build a future…but if you build a home, you surely don’t want to let termites eat the wood and destroy it…would you? of course not! You would get an exterminator for it amd make sure the house isn’t destoyed…

Isn’t your future more valuable than a home? So let’s take a look at what will KILL your MLM -home biz, and what to do about it…

What will Kill Your MLM Home Business.

1) “Life’s Distractions”…

 Life can be so distracting…with all that happens in a day..but most of the distractions are ones we can control…but usually don’t…I call them “Time Termites”…

They are what happen on a daily basis that eat away at our time and keeps us so busy with ‘Life” that our business suffers…if you are part time and working a home business, this is even more important!

Because time is money and if you are too distracted to work your business, then the “Time termites” show up and eat away at your b usiness…and your self uimage…

You know you should be working…but yet you have things that you need to do…that somehow take you away from your biz..like phone calls from friends, kids, home duties, etc…

You need to put a weekly SCHEDULE of when you are working, and let people know that you are not available for them (unless emergencies) and you will call them back, or get back to them…

If you don’t, then the “Time termites” will eat away at your business, and you will only have yourself to blame….

2) “Being BUSY…but not building”

….Is your MLM business a priority in your life? Is it something that you work DAILY?

I can tell when I coach someone that if they are working their business on a daily, and consistent basis,but not much is happening, then their Network Marketing business is in motion…but not movement…..

If there is a lack of effectiveness in your home biz, then you have been invaded by what i call “Busy Bugs”…

You are BUSY,…..doing all the wrong things that will not build your business…because it is not a priority nor a passion…

The Pretend Factor in Working a Home Business in MLM.
You may “pretend” to be working…but you are not really…you are simply acting out the motions, and fooling yourself into thinking you are building a direct sales business…

If you are not talking to new people everyday and following up everyday, you are BUSY…but not building..and that produces not much of a paycheck..

Building requires activities that communicate, market, and recruit…if you are doing everything else, then you are letting “Busy Bugs” eat away at your business, and soon your foundation of what you are building…will be weak…

3) “Doubts that this REALLY will work…”

 Do you REALLY believe that you will succeed in your home biz?

REALLY??

That alone will determine a lot of what happens in your home business…I call them “Doubt Daubers”….

They are the “Wasps of Weakness’ that can cripple your home business, and invade your mind and sting your thinking with the Venom of Victim…not victory…

You must think in your home business that it WILL work…because many spouse are negative because they sense youa re not 100% sold on what you are doing, and if you are not…

Why are you doing it?

“Doubt Daubers” can actually build nests in your home business…with the Mud of Mediocrity…in your mind…

And it will truly “Muddy Up” your business..Is that what you want for it?

NOT!

Take control of your home business and get the pest control Police out…to kill the ‘Doubt Daubers’…

And the best way is to read, listen to, learn all you can about what you want to happen…

Success…if you study MLM success, then your home will have less of a chance to be invaded by the pesty ‘Doubt Daubers”!

Blessings…
