MLM Team Building The Right Way
If you really want to succeed in network marketing you need to build a strong team and not just a downline. Just stacking your network with new members won't help you achieve the financial freedom that you are seeking. You need to have a system in place that would take inexperienced newcomers from your organization and would turn them to result-driven smart workers that would aspire to become leaders.
People don't just go out and duplicate you, they need training and directions. Actually the concept of duplication is a big lie in multilevel marketing similar to the one of managing people in the corporate world. You can't manage people or duplicate someone. As Michael Gerber says in his book Emyth it's systems that people follow.
Your mission as the leader of your organization is to take the company's system, which in most cases is very basic and limited, add to it what you have learned from your experience and constant practice, and pass it to those your sponsor. Unfortunately, some distributors are building big networks and amass a great number of members but neglect their responsibilities as sponsors and leaders. They believe it to be counter-productive and time consuming to divert their attention to that task since most of them would eventually fail and quit.
Certainly is not a waste of time such a pursue, but there are efficient and inefficient ways to do that. The inefficient way of course is to not have a system in place and improvise every time you're trying to teach someone on a one to one basis. That way you can omit or neglect to mention important things when passing a prospecting method to someone else, or any other information.
The best approach that you can use at training your distributors actually starts from you. Your first step is to analyze and break down the methods you use to build your MLM business to its smallest component. Then write down step by step instructions for every method you use, mentioning the smallest detail without leaving any blind spots or room for assumptions and interpretations.
