Got Support?

One of the vital ingredients of a network marketing business is good training & support.  I didn't have good support when I started out, and I knew nothing about mlm.  It took me several months - nearly a year - to get my business earning $$, because I trained myself.

I never want anyone to go through that.  In many ways, network marketing is the same no matter what the company.  So, if you have questions and no one to ask, please contact me.  You can post a question here or send an email.  I'll be glad to help in any way I can. 

With network marketing, it is so great that you need not go to your "supervisor" (enroller).  You can contact anyone in your upline within your own company, or join network marketing forums, or you can participate at blogs that pertain to our field.

I wish everyone who may read this blog the best of success with your business.

Surround Yourself with Optimistic People

Life is too short to spend your precious time trying to convince a person who wants to live in gloom and doom otherwise. Give lifting that person your best shot, but don't hang around long enough for his or her bad attitude to pull you down. Instead, surround yourself with optimistic people -- Zig Ziglar

In network marketing, it is not a team leader's responsibility to help everyone on their team.  Why not, you may ask.  It is our responsibility to help ONLY those who deserve help, those who ask for help and are actually working their business.

We need not chase down those team members who don't stay in contact with you.  We need not force training on anyone who does not request it.  No one who has a team of network marketers can say that their entire team is working.  Some do, some don't.  We must devote our time and energy on those who will actually benefit by our training.  Not those who "need" it, but rather to those who want it and are determined to succeed.
