5 Ways NOT To Build Your Network Marketing Business Like a Guru

Posted on by

Struggling to get real results in your network marketing business? Bought every cd series, ebook training and gone to every high cost motivational event across the globe? Have you even tried to emulate the top gurus in the industry and haven’t cracked the code?
Well today I’m going to expose 5 myths that can make the difference for you. You see the truth of the matter is you don’t have to be or become a guru to start making money and build a massive team. Actually if you grasp these truths in the following lines, you will never want to be a guru at all.  So how do you know if you’re doing things like guru and how to do the opposite…keep on reading.

You know you’re an mlm guru when…

1.) You never pick up the phone to speak to any one in your front line or down line team because that is for amateurs. Leaders who have contributed to the idea that to be a big player in mlm is by not taking calls or answering there phone are dead wrong. Not only will they seriously cripple their long-tern checks but more importantly training there teams for stunted growth because no one will ever pick up the phones to connect with other prospects.

2) You want to let a system replace your human touch and automate “everything”. No system as good as it is will ever do everything. The key to building a long-term thriving organization is connecting with people and your team. In the network marketing industry there are many systems that can solve problems but the one thing it cannot do is the build relationships. It is these key relationship that produce great leaders and ultimately monetary success into the future. The legendary John Maxwell has quoted “people don’t care how much you know, until they know how much you care.”

3) You view your group only as another big transaction when a new affiliate “flavor of the month program” comes out. This one really irritates me…When a so called guru only sees their team, group or list as a dollar signs ($) in my opinion they are committing a relational crime of trust. People who take advantage of their people by using their influence base and platform just to keep selling the latest and greatest or every program under the sun, confuses and hinders team growth. While tools and affiliate of value are worthy to be promoted, the  real issue is the motive of that guru s0-called leader. Good people who feel taken advantage time and time again will eventually quit and look for some one who won’t manipulate them but actually provide, protect and produce with and for them. This is true leadership!!

4) You have amazing skills to do what you do BUT no one else on your team can duplicate you. I’ve found that the greatest leaders in this industry in fact do have have amazing skills and abilities. They are exceptional presenters, great connectors and constant closers. However the liability I have also witnessed is these very skills not being transferred and passed on to others. The danger in being the “guy” or “gal” that is the only one, means that you are an anomaly or as we are discussing the unrelatable “guru” In order to have true duplication which leads to massive residuals many years into the future  is by not being the only person who can do it. That’s where walkaway income becomes  a reality. So teaching others to do is the 1st part of the secret and then teaching others to teach is the 2nd part…that’s a smart nwm leader!

5) You have a network marketing job because you’re always the super hero and have to keep performing to sustain your income. Having a job is one thing but many gurus simply have the same by not  duplicating their skill to their team. A network marketing job isn’t desirable either.  Who wants that? By being the sole guy or gal that does it all, the genius, the magic, the there is no duplication and as a result to freedom. However by training others to do what you do and better is how you have the very thing network marketing is all about. Freedom. “True Leadership is defined as making yourself increasingly unnecessary.”

So think you still want to be a guru,…thought you have a different perspective. Really the path to super star levels in any network marketing business is all about possessing  people skills, taking personal organic action daily, not taking advantage or your people, thinking about the interest and well being of your team and duplicating yourself by raising up other leaders.

Resolutions Vs Real Solutions: 5 Things You Should Consider Before The End of 2011

Posted on by
8

Are you ready? Prepared for the big event? What big event you ask, 2011 of course…I have to admit I’m pretty stoked about it myself!!

But with less than 48 hrs left before we blow party horns, lift our champagne glasses all over the world to toast, celebrate and ring in a new year, I’d like to ask you a few important questions. Are you content to make resolutions or seek real solutions?  These 5 key things I will cover in this post will ensure you maximize 2011 better than ever before. They can and will mean the world of difference because again after the new years eve party dust settles and the 2011 novelty wears off,  will you be the same person making the same old year-end resolutions  OR will you embrace a new you and create the real solutions that you truly seek?

 

Question: if you go back in a time machine to one year go New Year 2010, What is one thing you would do differently if you could and why? Now why would I ask this question? Simple. Because many people have not done what they said they were going to do. Many last year set some good goals but had bad habits. For example did you have every intention of loosing weight, improving their finances, bettering relationships but some how had 365 days slip away? Well, it doesn’t have to be the same story in 2011

Here are 5 simple things to consider doing to maximize 2011 as we wait for the bubbly to chill.

1. MAKE A DECISION TO  SET SOME GOALS
A Survey from Harvard Business School revealed that 80% of those in a graduating class who set goals early in their life and before their careers actually hit them 20 years later. What does this mean? You cannot hit a target you haven’t aimed for and can’t reach a goal you haven’t set. The message is simple stop procrastinating on what you know you must do. Just commit the goals to paper and put a date for when you will accomplish it.

2. CREATE A DAILY/WEEKLY ACTION PLAN
If you can’t see it, you can’t achieve it. What helps in most cases is to break the goals of 2011 down into bite-size realistic chunks of effort. That way the task won’t appear as daunting as it looks. While we want a goal so large it motivates us, we want it reasonable enough to go after it. As the old adage says: How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time.

3. STOP MAKING EXCUSES FOR ACCEPTING FAILURE
If your goal is a simple one, please do not let it elude you as so many have and let it get pushed to the back burner. Remember if it is simple to do, then it is simple not to do. The solution to achieving a simple goal where the task is more regular than difficult is to ALWAYS remember what you want & why you want it. Keep it in your minds eye 24-7. Cut it out and paste in on your fridge or dream board if you must. This way you will never provide for that scenario of failure or defeat. By giving your mind constant reminders you will automatically seek ways to make your goal a reality.

4. QUIT COMPARING YOURSELF TO OTHERS
The faster you implement this is the faster you succeed in 2011. While admiring and emulating great leaders and top performers is a good , comparing yourself to others is debilitating and futile. Why? Because we tend to compare our greatest weak point other peoples’ greatest strength. Never do this. Instead select good qualities you want to adopt into your life and character and build your self image that way. Choose  inspiration and not comparison in 2011. Oh yeah remember enemies compete BUT leaders and friends inspire.

5. GET ACCOUNTABLE IMMEDIATELY
The final non-negotiable point here as we prepare for a new year is to get accountable. # 1 to yourself but #2 and foremost to a trustworthy and bonified mentor or coach. The value of a coach in life and business is so invaluable. Remember the initial question I posed in the first part of this blog about what you would have done differently last year? The truth is this:  if you could have done it by yourself already in 2010 you would have done it…so that is why I suggest getting accountable to a leader who will not let you off the hook is VITAL. Find that leader who will commit to be  straight with you, real with you and sometimes even be tough with you.  Here is where true results  can be produced because  you can’t kid yourself when you start to make excuses in the new year. Just like exercise and training is hard and we hate discipline, you will grow to love the result(s) and that come from accountability.

Apply these 5 things and you’ll truly celebrate not just on the first day of the year, but all year long. By not just making the run of the mill garden variety “resolution” but go after “real solutions” in 2011, I guarantee you’ll have a brand new year filled with realized dreams and manifested goals. This is how 2011 will be your best year ever!

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!

2 Big Reasons Why I’m Driving 430 km To Eastern Ontario To Speak To Our Canadian Soldiers

Posted on by
1

I leave in under 4 hrs. I’ll be driving over 430 km east each way.

So why am I up writing this blog post? lol Well I’ll keep the two biggest reason short and concise. The first reason is that the  acquirement of gold & silver in our economy today by average people just makes sense. No one ever has too  much of it. People everywhere get that!  So with this fact a revolutionary company called Numis Network spear-heading high graded gold & sliver has grabbed the eye and attention of a team of military men in eastern Canada.

Yes soldiers…can you imagine? Yes trained, professional military soldiers located in Eastern Ontario are   pumped up and excited about creating wealth, collecting wealth & preserving wealth with this phenomenal category creating company.

The second reason why I’m going  is a personal one. When I think about what these great men and women have done and continue to do everyday in the line of battle, every month on their tour of duty, it’s a simple choice. As they serve our great nation, preserving peace, justice, liberty putting themselves in harms way, leaving friends 7 family behind, by laying the ultimate sacrifice on the line, I realize just why in 4 hrs I’ll drive 430 km to share this opportunity. It is becasue now I get my chance to become a soldier and can serve them back.

For their service to us. The least I can do is to share a rich opportunity that can better the family of a soldier. Create freedom for a father or mother who has many time risked his/ her life for my freedom. Make a difference for young veterans who are so often forgotten or one whose actions have gone unappreciated, unsung or unheard.

This is my awesome moment to  serve these soldiers now.  Private Carl Best let’s make a difference partner!

Who ever thought that gold & silver network marketing business could be so powerful, but now it has. I am so looking forward to being their in Pewtawa Ontario to give back to our troops in the way of an incredible opportunity for them to become personally and economically free!

Salut!
