MLM Network Marketing Excuses

Posted by: Joe Barclay | Comments (0)

Over the years, I’ve been amazed by the lame excuses that hold people back from the success they could enjoy in MLM network marketing.

When excuses are holding you back in your business, you really have 2 choices…quit the business or overcome the excuse. Assuming you have a big “why” for being in your MLM opportunity, and you are in it for the long haul, it just makes sense to clearly identify any excuse that’s blocking your success and learn how to get past it.

Although I have heard literally hundreds of excuses offered for lack of success in MLM network marketing during my career, all of the excuses revolve around a few basic themes. Here are the most common excuses networkers use and how to overcome each of them.

Time. Networkers complain they don’t have enough time, live in a certain time zone, or work a certain shift. The problem really isn’t lack of time, it’s lack of direction. Start by treating your MLM like a business. Establish a set work schedule, whether it’s 5 hours per week or 20. The only activities that matter in our business are exposing new prospects to the opportunity, following up with them, and enrolling and training them to duplicate the process. Eliminate other activities.

Prospects. The excuses networkers offer include not being able to talk to friends or family about the business, not knowing enough people, getting poor quality leads, or not being good at sales. The number one cause of lack of growth in MLM network marketing is not having enough good people looking at your business each day. There are a variety of ways to generate excellent prospects, both online and locally. Every networking company and team offers training on prospecting. Learn it.

Sponsor. The frequent excuses are that a sponsor left the business, the sponsor doesn’t know what he or she is doing, or that there are no leaders in a local area. Make it your responsibility to learn the business. Learn to be a leader. Many top income earners in our industry were orphaned years ago. Reach up-line for help. Reach cross-line for help. One of the best things about networking is the willingness to share with others. Ask for help.

Downline. The usual excuse is that the downline is not productive. Face it, some people will quit, many will never do any work, some won’t return your phone calls. When team members offer these excuses, my suggestion is always the same…enroll more new business partners and help them be successful. Focus on the winners on your team. Never waste time or fret over the losers.

Economy. This is probably the weakest excuse of all. Fact is, the down economy of the last few years has actually been a blessing for our industry. More top-quality people than ever are looking for another source of income. Take advantage of the fact that it presents an opportunity to recruit up to better prospects, and that nothing will grow your business faster than recruiting up.

If you are not having the success you were hoping for as a networker, take an honest, objective look at yourself. If excuses are holding you back, identify them and take the necessary action to overcome them. Don’t let excuses block your success in MLM network marketing.

For years, we have taught our business partners that the two essential elements necessary for big success in MLM network marketing are developing the right mindset and mastering an array of marketing skills. Developing the mindset of a leader is another topic in itself and is covered in a separate article.

Today’s article focuses on marketing. Everything in mlm network marketing depends on and starts with marketing. And unfortunately, most networkers have no marketing experience prior to joining the networking industry.

In its simplest sense, marketing is the combination of things you do to cause more people to buy your mlm product or service or to join your team as a business partner. It’s what creates sales!

To have real success in our industry, you must have a well-planned strategy for marketing your mlm. It should start with developing and maintaining a steady flow of qualified, motivated prospects looking at your business each day. The number one cause of networkers not enjoying the success they hoped for almost always traces back to not having enough good prospects looking at their business.

Today, most networking companies provide excellent training on how to build their business. And individual teams within a company usually offer additional training on their specialized approach. The initial training for any new networker should cover developing a marketing budget and setting realistic goals that you can measure your performance against. If you are in the process of selecting an mlm network marketing opportunity, the available training should be a major criteria in your choice.

While our team specializes in online marketing and search engine domination, most of which can be done for free, we still teach a number of offline and local methods also. We have found that a business will get the best results by applying a mix of several marketing methods.

In addition to marketing your product or service, or your company and its opportunity, it is vital to promote yourself too. This personal branding is called attraction marketing. When you learn to use attraction marketing effectively, prospects begin seeking you out instead of you searching for them.

The good news is that marketing is easy to learn. There are many different strategies you can use effectively in our industry. In addition to the training provided by your company and team, you can gain marketing skills through books, the Internet, and by closely studying marketing you are exposed to in your daily routine.

To have real success in mlm network marketing you must master marketing!
