S T O P Cutting Corners!!

    What is one of the worst things that any company should never do? It’s cutting corners in order to help increase production and revenue. In the beginning, cutting corners may appear to cause these increases to happen, but as with all things it will never last. WHY!? Because, eventually the truth will reveal itself either in the form of corruption or in the form of failing products and/or services; the truth always catches up with us.

    What do I mean by saying this? I remember watching an interview on GM workers at the time some car-makers were asking the government for bail out money so their company won’t shut down. One of the workers who had worked for them for years stated how in the past workers would cut corners when building the cars on the assembly line. To the interviewer’s and my amazement, we both could not believe what he was saying. He further stated that this is why in the past GM cars suffered in sales because of the cars performing badly due to shabby work. Just like I said it’s bad to cut corners because the truth will eventually catch up with you.

     So what does this have to do with Network Marketing? Just about EVERYTHING!! I have watched new Network Marketers get so excited when they join a company, and follow what their upline or sponsor tells them regarding recruiting others. Soon to only realize that growth occurs over time, so they get frustrated and try to find ways to cheat the system by cutting corners. For example, I knew a representative who worked for a Network Marketing company that sells mortgages. Her 9-5 job was working for a mortgage company in which they also sold mortgages. On more than one occasion, she would steal new clients and try to sell them a mortgage from her Network Marketing Company.

     Over time, in her Network Marketing Company, she was doing well. Her production was high and her income had increased. However, as stated earlier, the truth always catches up. One of her friends over heard what she was doing and informed the boss. This caused her immediate removal from the company and the boss almost filed charges against her for stealing potential clients. Do you want to what else happened to her? Because, she built her business by always cutting corners, she never took the time to become creative in finding new leads. This resulted in a decrease in her income and production which ultimately caused her to quit.

What lesson can you learn from both examples? Well, here it is…..NEVER EVER CUT CORNERS BECAUSE THE TRUTH WILL EVENTUALLY CATCH UP TO YOU!!

YEAH!! I’m Attending Drive-Time University

     What is Drive-Time University? When most people think about a University, they usually think education. A University is a place in which people can attend to receive an education. They attend these Universities for four or more years in the hopes of being successful in their career choice. Students study for long periods of time in order to get good great grades. Although, many people complete the educational programs at Universities however; becoming successful in obtaining a career and excelling in that career is no guarantee. Yet, so many people choose this path. There is absolutely nothing wrong with this path. However, I prefer to attend a different type of University that also does not provide a guarantee, but helps new Network Marketers in a big way. 

     What University is this you may be asking? Well, I call it a Drive-Time University. This is a University that every new Network Marketer should attend. So getting back to the original question, what is Drive-Time University? It is every time you drive somewhere you are listening to something in your vehicle that will help you obtain the education you need to become successful in Network Marketing. Education in a Drive-Time University is without limits. You can learn things such as time management, communication skills, positive thinking, & the list goes on. The next question is how do you attend? This is very simple. Obtain informational CD’s, or recordings of educational products that will help you become successful in Network Marketing. 

     In the past, I use to listen to music when I drove from artists who are already successful in their field. Others may choose to listen to talk radio or a news channel. Although, this may provide them with some form of entertainment as it did for me; there is no guarantee that the information will help them succeed in Network Marketing. Yet, if they change their habit of listening to music, talk shows or the news and decided to listen to educational information; in time they may learn something that will help them succeed in Network Marketing. So my call to action for you is to remove ALL of the non-educational CD’s or recording or radio stations from your vehicle that won’t help you in Network Marketing, and visit your local book store, shop online. Then, download as many educational informational products as you can. Congratulations on your attendance in your Drive-Time University. See You AtThe Top!!

You Will Never Know Who Your Next Superstar Is If You Stop Looking

     Most people start out in Network Marketing with the understanding especially if their company has a good system in place that the more people that they put on their business team working the business; the more money they will make. So what happens in the beginning? New Network Marketers go out and try to recruit everyone that they know. This is a good thing, but unfortunately when they run out of people that they know what happens? They either lose excitement, become frustrated thinking that they have no one else to talk to, and quit, or they seek out creative ways to find new prospects and potential recruits. 

     Both scenarios always seem to happen. However, us uplines, hope that the second scenarios happens more than the first one. Now let’s look at what happens when new Network Marketers try a numerous amount of different creative ways to find new prospects and potential recruits. Yet, they don’t seem to grow their business team fast enough. Once again, they become frustrated believing that these different creative ways don’t work. However, as a seasoned Network Marketer, we know that this is not true. WHY!? Because, we understand that Rome was not built in a day; it took many years to build. This exactly how long it will take to build for your Network Marketing business. I, along with most Network Marketers, advice that all Network Markets should give themselves at least five years to build a successful business.  

     Okay, now you have decided to give yourself five years to build your home business in which during your second year you recruit someone who is totally emerged into the opportunity and starts to build a large business team of their own. Some Network Marketers, not all, make a very fatal mistake in their business at this point. THEY STOP LOOKING FOR NEW SUPERSTARS TO JOIN THEIR BUSINESS TEAM!! This is bad, bad, and very bad for the growth of their Network Marketing business. What if their current superstar decides to let life happen, and cause them to quit working their home business? 

     Your income could possibly suffer. In order to maintain continually growth in your Network Marketing business; you MUST always be looking for new superstars to join your home business. This is why I believe that most Network Marketers have not found the highest income-earner on their team yet. This is especially true if the stop looking.

Choose To Follow Success

     All humans who are blessed to visit and live on this planet have been given a special gift in which no other mammals have been blessed with. This is gift is called, “Choice.” Other mammals that live on this planet mainly operate on instinct and humans don’t. For example, most bears are known for hibernating in the winter. Has anyone heard of a bear that chose not to hibernate in the winter? No right? Because it’s their instinct to hibernate in the winter and they have no choice but to follow this instinct. 

     Humans on the other hand, have the ability to choose, and act upon that choice. We can choose what to wear, how to act, what to eat, when to sleep, and the list goes on and on. The majorities of people underestimate the power of “choosing” and make unwise decisions that cause uncomfortable situations and conditions in their lives. Sometimes the right path have been laid out before them, yet they seen to choose the wrong one. Is this because of ignorance or stupidity or stubbornness? This is something that I believe we will never fully know. One thing that is completely true about me is that I choose to follow the right path; the one that was successfully laid out before.

 

     At one point in my life, I didn’t understand why more people did not want to choose to follow success. The success I am talking about was created by successful people. People who have gone out and made the mistakes, learned from them, and went on to become successful. Now, I choose not to focus on why they don’t follow successful people. However; I will constantly make sure that I do and NEVER deviate off course. Because I now know that if I want something out of life I must follow others who were successful in obtaining it before me and copy what they did; then obtaining what I want is inevitable. 

     My call to action to you is to make sure that in your networking marketing journey to success you follow the people who have achieved the success you want and never stray off course; no matter what.

Are You A Copy-Cat!?

I am a Copy-Cat. As a matter of fact, I am not only a Copy-Cat I am a Master Copy-Cat. I believe that you should become one too. Almost all of the most successful people in the world were Master Copy-Cats. I hope that you choose to be a Master Copy-Cat like me however; just make sure that you are copying the “Right Cats!”
