Are You Using A Sharp or Dull Axe In Your Network Marketing Business?

Imagine walking up to a man trying to chop down a tree in the forest. He's struggling with all his might and yet he's barely made any progress.

You look at him and you see that he is chopping at the tree vigorously and he's been at it for quite some time and he's intent on getting the tree to down.

He has a single focus and is using all the proper leverage and perfect technique, but as you get close you see there is one thing out of place.

He's using a dull blade.

You say to the man . . .

"Hey buddy why don't you just sharpen your blade, you'll get the job done twice as fast?

"He replies . . .

"No time, can't you see I'm trying to chop down this tree?

"Well, when I first started network marketing I was this guy out in the prospecting forest trying to chop down my tree of successfully building a downline.

I hacked at it. I tried all the techniques I was told were proper and I was intent on using them with all my might until my goal was reached.

Unfortunately, the guy in our example above had one advantage over me.

He had someone actually come up to him and point out his problem.

The sad truth is . . .If someone had done this for me I probably would have given them the same response that our man with the axe above gave.I would have said . . .

"Can't you see I'm trying to make cold calls and build a downline?

I don't have time for that!"

While in the act and exerting all our energy to a task we give very little time to reflection on what may truly help us be more successful. We think that if we just keep hacking away that sooner or later we will be successful in achieving our end.

While this may hold true . . .

Wouldn't a sharper blade make that struggle a whole lot easier?

I hear a question brewing . . .

"Karen, you say a blade, but what does this equate to in network marketing?

"HOW YOU MARKET YOUR BUSINESS...Silly!

All I'll say is this . . .

You can't consistently recruit 10 - 20 people in a month with personal contact or with the phone, but when you learn to leverage the awesome power of the internet using "funded proposals" to your advantage you end up with a mighty sharp MLM/network marketing blade that can!

Here's a super sharp axe I personally use to build my MLM with...

Network Marketing Recruiting - How Can I Get Better At Doing This?

Copyright © Karen Pore, Your Partner In Online Success

When it comes to the process network marketing recruiting many people give up on the first, second or third try and just end up thinking is way too hard for them to do.
These people are your perfect example of quitters, those who just give up at something and make up excuses saying it was just too hard. Those people blame everyone else but themselves and is very obvious why they are not successful.

Probably not just in network marketing either!

If you are one of these people then you better start dedicating yourself to get better by developing more skills. You must not wish it was easier you have to develope more skills and get better.

The only way to get better at something is to keep on doing it until you begin to get it right. Remember it's not all about sales talent but there has to be experience as well. Those who give up too easily are those who never get over the top and succeed.

If you are serious about being successful then you must have the mental strength to endure the rough times that you will undergo. I can give you some basic concepts on the whole recruiting method but when it comes down to it what matters is if you decide to stick around even through the struggles.

When you decide to recruit someone the worst way to do it is by approaching them with your business opportunity upfront. They will not pay attention to you and they will feel that all you care about is to sell them. This was the old school way of doing things years ago and sadly to say there are many network marketers still trying to do it today.

Only, the best and most savy saleman can do it (2% to 5%) today!

But, there is a much better way for the newbie. It's called a system and you need one to be successful in the new wave network marketing information age. A system that can create leads automatically, filter through and find the quality prospects worth spending time with. Plus, it must also pay you even if the majority of these lead don't join your primary MLM company.
Is that possible? You bet, I use such a system today and so can you no matter what business your trying to build.
