Why I Love Network Marketing Business?

Image
When I was introduced to the Network Marketing in 2003, I saw it as a health provider, but when I delved deeper, I saw my personal freedom—freedom to get out my stressful job, saw that I could have time and financial freedom and above all, I saw a way to help hundreds of people.  I saw the beauty of giving, and fell in love with the entire system. It is an amazing business model where a person does not need a big capital to start the business, does not require a college degree or an office, a shop or a warehouse. It can be done by rich or poor, young or old, working or stay home mom.          Freedom to Give     There are two things the entire world needs: good health and enough money to enjoy life and not be dependent on anybody. I have traveled to rich and poor countries and seen thousands of people benefiting in both the areas. There cannot be a better way to earn a living by finding the problems of people and providing them solution. The best part of the business is that if people

Challenges faced by most Networkers

In the beginning, most networkers face the same challenges, and if not resolved, these challenges continue to linger even after a few years. I received the following email from a Networker and the challenges he was facing in the business. Coincidentally, these are common hurdles most networkers encounter daily. I have decided to share his email along with the solution.   “I am working to become Star Diamond--just looking for advice on how to counteract apathy and inaction. I started weekly seminars/webinars and promoted it to distributors and new people, but only a few listen in. I am unable to get a lot of people to meetings. In your experience, what is the best strategy to get people to try and buy products, and come to the meetings or onto webinars?"   My reply with advice and solution is as follows:   Good Morning,  Thanks for the update. I want to wish you all the best in getting the status of Diamond, but remember, getting just the status without big bonus is pointless. Focu

You Are What You Think

I am sure you must have heard the cliché before that you are what you think , you are what you say , you are what you do , and finally you are what you attract and become .  Let’s start a normal day--you get up in the morning with positive thoughts and say to yourself before you put your feet on the floor, “it’s going to be a wonderful day!” and your positive thoughts with affirmation will make your day wonderful. On the other hand, if you get up with negative thoughts, chances are that you will have a bad day. The big dilemma is how to think and remain positive.    It is not easy to always think positively and do positive things when the news we hear or read and the people who surround us are negative—these factors continuously affect us. If you want to be positive, you have to work hard, very hard. In my opinion, your positive thoughts and actions are directly connected with people and environment.    You do have control over people, for example your friends. If you see they affect y

Importance of Coaching and Mentoring

Importance of Coaching and Mentoring  in Network Marketing Having coached thousands of networkers globally, I firmly believe that without proper guidance in this wonderful business, it is difficult to succeed. Why? Unlike traditional business, which offers BBA and MBA program, in network marketing there are no degree programs or diplomas.   Trained as an aerospace engineer, I was clueless about building a network marketing business. I quickly realized that in order to succeed I had to educate myself. I was fortunate to come across Networking Times and started attending their live webinars in January 2004. I listened to top leaders like Tom Schreiter, Mark Yarnell, and Randy Gage. I was fortunate that Dr. Josephine and Chris Gross connected me to a few of these MLM gurus. Tom Schreiter, among several others, became my mentor as well as a good friend.   It does not matter which profession you belong to, you must reflect on your practice. As a flying instructor, I regularly encouraged
