The System is Your Savior, not the products or the company

Most people, even the moderately successful ones in Network Marketing, don't have a system.  It's because they built a network based upon their sales talents, or because they give great meetings, or simply their sheer strength of personality

What these people do works.  It just doesn't duplicate.  They work hard and mean well, but the average person cannot duplicate what they are doing to build their business. 

People who duplicate use a system.  They have a step-by-step process for how to approach people, what marketing materials to use, how to enroll people, train them, etc.

A system gives you security, it helps you build depth faster, and most importantly, it allows you to leverage your time and talents for maximum effect.  It gives you the opportunity to bring in people who can replace you quickly

The true success of your business comes from training other people to replace yourself.  And then teach them how to teach their people the same thing.  This is when you can get some tremendous exponential growth taking place.

The secret of a system is that every stage of the business building process is spelled out.  So anyone who joins the network can follow the same successful process that brought him or her in, instead of having to go through a trial and error scenario.

This also makes the business work for people who are not natural sales types, and have fear of rejection.  In other words, it is more duplicable for more people.

Having an effective system is so important. Systems ARE duplicatable because they level the playing field for everyone. People don’t join a company; they join you, which mean you will have a massive impact on your sponsoring success. In the end, when it comes to MARKETING a business opportunity, your results will eventually fall onto your shoulders…

Your system should completely delineate and spell out the entire process that a distributor will follow from where to find prospects, how to approach them, how to sponsor them, and how to train them to reach the higher advancement ranks.  Each stage in this process should be written down somewhere, and taught to the distributor at the appropriate time.

Do you have personal value to offer this new person? Are you a leader? Will they gain power by associating with you? Do you have an effective system in place that everyone who joins you or your team will follows, regardless of their geographical location, gender, race or age?

Do you have a system that teaches people how to promote, follow up, build a customer base, recruit, launch a new Team member, start a 90 day plan etc…

Your ability to get a large group of people to do a few simple things consistently over an extended period of time is the formula for financial independence in network marketing

Without a duplicatable system, you are setting up your new recruits for failure instead of success.

“Those individuals who grows their businesses by teaching their Team a system that is duplicable will be the ones who experience the power of exponential growth and residual income in network marketing” Richard Pole. The breakdown of the six key elements that should be included in your system to provide strong duplication is what we learn at the extreme team

MLM/Network Marketing: An Answer to These Economic Times

[Reprinted from the December 2010 issue of the Network Marketing Business Journal, the industry’s oldest, largest newspaper for network marketers]

In these times, many people wonder if they will be laid off, or how they will manage inflation or retirement. Some want a Plan B, and some have found one with network marketing. They may start a business as a backup while working, or upon retiring. Although there challenges to multi-level-marketing businesses, I’ve collected a list of advantages for those considering one.

Answer to recession:

It can provide job security backup in these uncertain times.

You can grow this business while you keep your current one.

No pressure to succeed within a certain time. Work at your pace.

Replace your current career with one you love.

More job security working for yourself than working for someone else.

Answer to inflation:

Extra income to fight the cost of living growing faster than people’s cost of living raises.

Low start-up cost, low risk and investment.

No employees, inventory, or store overhead.

Training provided. Almost anyone can do it.

Answer for aging parents who need more money.

Keeps them healthfully active and engaged.

Provides a monthly income when you don’t have capital to invest:

How long will it take you to save $50K to get $200 interest a month income from it? vs.

Security for illness:

Keep getting paid by residual passive income.

Other Advantages

Thrives on the new technology that connects the world now.

Live where you want, anywhere in the world, pr even travel continuously.

You grow by becoming a manager/coach, and helping others succeed, vs. profiting off low-income labor.

It’s built on support vs. competition, as in corporate.

You have support as you change from employee thinking to business-owner thinking.

You are not alone. You have a team to rely on.

You can leave the business to your family in your will.

It’s a lot of freedom: more money, time, creativity, and fulfilling service to people.

So why is skill development the foundation of network marketing success?

Do you want to achieve the pinnacle of network marketing success?

Don't you often feel like you are chasing that elusive pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, moving ever closer but you can never quite get your hands on it!

Achieving the pinnacle of success in network marketing begins with building a solid foundation based on skills and competence.

In my experience, finding a network marketing skill development program is like unlocking the keys to network marketing success and finding a treasure chest full of gold.

Unfortunately not everyone discovers gold, but with a road map of priceless clues you can open the treasure chest and discover that network marketing skill development is in fact the foundation of network marketing success.

As a network marketing professional and coach, I have seen people start out on a network marketing career wide eyed with expectation about what this industry has to offer, their dreams are big and they are filled with enthusiasm. But somehow the success they dream about just never seems to happen and it becomes as elusive as that pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

So why do network marketers find themselves in this situation?

Simple answer………

They either don't have a system or they don’t follow a network marketing skill development program in the first place or the system/process that forms the foundation of their business is not rock solid. In other words, it is not built on skills and competence and therefore doesn't contain the FOUR ESSENTIAL BUILDING BLOCKS of a network marketing success system!

YOUR Skill development should be YOUR first priority in network marketing business!

Achieving the pinnacle of success in network marketing begins with building a solid foundation based on skills and competence.

So what are the four essential building blocks of a network marketing success system?

The four essential building blocks form the basis of the Network Marketing Success Cycle illustrated here and are as follows:

Skill Development

Career Planning

Leadership

Coaching

SKILL DEVELOPMENT! It's a very general term and can apply to a lot of areas. The problem is it's not used much in network marketing, which is one of the reasons why people often don't see the connection between building a network marketing business and building a business using other business models.

For some strange reason there seems to be this little myth that gets passed on from person to person within the industry that somehow network marketing is different from other business models - it has a unique character all of its own and its only the "special people" who truly "get this" that succeed!

So I ask myself:Why is it that some people who join network marketing think they don't need to access skill development, career planning, leadership development or coaching programs specific to the industry in order to achieve their business goals?

Why is it that a great number of network marketing leaders think they don't need to support their new business associates with programs specific to the industry and to their company - programs based on skill development, career planning, leadership development and coaching which are fundamental to business success no matter what industry you work in?

Why there is a popular misconception that anyone joining network marketing only needs to talk to every person that comes within 3 foot of them about their products and their business and the riches will come pouring in?

Well, sadly I think many network marketers find themselves victims of this "old school" approach to industry success because of the way the network marketing industry evolved over time.

However I am pleased to say that there seems to be a ground swell for change. Some network marketing companies and independent network marketing leaders are moving away from this old school of thought. They understand that network marketing success is based on the success principles used in business generally.

So why is skill development so important?

Well the way I see it………every industry has specific knowledge and skill sets that people who work in that industry should be able to perform to a level of competence!

So think about that………how do YOU know what you need to be able to do and to what standard in order that you might achieve the success you truly desire in your network marketing business?

Consider these questions:

If you don't know what you need to be able to do then how are you going to do it?

If you know the things you need to do but can't do them because you are just not sure how, is your business going to be successful?

If you know the things you need to do but can only do them with guidance and support, what happens if your helper is not around?

If you know the things you need to do and can do them competently on your own, then what would this mean for your business success?

Let's take this a step further………

Imagine you are brand new to network marketing………maybe you are brand new, in which case you won't have to imagine too much, you are living it right now!

You have decided you want to start a network marketing business. What network marketing fundamentals should you be aware of, what do you need to know and be able to do to get your business off the ground?

YOU NEED TO GET YOUR HANDS ON A NETWORK MARKETING SKILL DEVELOPMENT COMPETENCY FRAMEWORK

Your overall skill development is contingent on you being able to identify the knowledge and skills you need to build your business. A competency framework should help you to identify the information you need to know and the skills you must be able to perform competently. This information is important just to get your business off base one but is equally vital for your long term business success.

Think about this………

You don't know what you don't know………right

Yes, that's right!

So if you are new to network marketing you will need to access some skill development - that's for sure. No matter how many skills you bring with you to this new venture you will need to learn SOME new stuff. So you need to find out what that is exactly!

The only way you are going to do this effectively and not just rely on what you hear on the grapevine, is to follow a skill development program or system which clearly defines the skills you need to be able to perform competently.

This skill development competency framework should provide you with a complete breakdown of the skills you will need to perform competently in the following areas:

·         Network marketing fundamentals,

·         How to build a network marketing customer base, and

·         How to build a global network marketing business

Let's beak this down even further

What are some categories of skill development that you would expect to be included in a competency framework for network marketing fundamentals?

Orientation - how are you going to get orientated about your company, your products, and your business opportunity so that you know how to take the first steps?

Business systems and processes - what business systems and processes do you need to have in place and be able to use so you are organized and make best use of the time available to you to build your business?

Resources - what network marketing tools and resources do you need to be familiar with and know how to use to get your business going?

Branding YOUR business - remember you are in business for yourself, even though you represent your network marketing company. So what's unique about what YOU have to offer your prospective customers and business associates? How are you going to set about letting people know who you are and what you offer in your business - what's Your USP - Your Unique Selling Proposition?

There are tons more, but this is just to give you an idea………

Before I go any further I want to be sure you are clear on what I mean by competence.

Are you crystal clear………?

Your understanding of how competence relates to a network marketing skill development program is pivotal to your short and long term business success.

If you are competent in a particular skill it means you can perform that skill to a required standard, on your own, without help and be able to do this on an ongoing basis. This will make you self sufficient.

So that's what you want of course in order to achieve your network marketing business growth goals.

In your network marketing business you need to be aware of the skills and knowledge required at each level of your career. Without skills you’ll end up with nothing. Focus on skills, become better on inviting, master the follow up system, and get better in handling objections and enrolling prospects. If you don’t learn these skills, how are you going to keep up with those that master them? How your team is going to duplicate what you do?  Do you have a step by step process for your new people to follow or you are going to tell them to pitch your opportunity as the best in the world? Are you ready to build your business now? Get the skills on this blog. Or, you could spend 40+ years doing trial and error

 

A message from Eric Worre

Eric Worre is currently on a cruise ship heading to the Cayman Islands, so loading a new video is difficult, and He decided to send a message to All of us  here it is... 

You can do this.  You have it within you to go all the way to the top in the Network Marketing Profession.  You are capable of learning and improving every single day.  And don't ever let anyone convince you otherwise.

The world is filled with skeptics, cynics and pessimists.  So many people have lost sight of their dreams and are threatened by people like you.  The people courageous enough to do something different.

They act on this threat to their model of the world by trying to discourage you.  Sometimes they are gentle and subtle.  Sometimes they are downright nasty.

I've learned that the nasty ones are actually easier to take.  Anyone that says you are going to fail actually end up providing some extra motivation.

But the subtle ones... THOSE are the most dangerous.  They sound so concerned, so reasonable, so friendly.  Don't buy their story.  They don't need to buy into your way of life, but no matter what you do, DON'T buy into theirs.

You are deserving.

You are worthy.

You are capable.

Network Marketing is a better way.

And your dream is worth fighting for.

Don't every forget that.

If this message was for you, I hope it came at a good time.

Your friend & partner,

Eric Worre - Network Marketing Pro
