A Controversial View Of Network Marketing Training

Some of you might think I'm over stepping a line a bit here so before I go on I'll ask that you share any issues you may have in the comments below for discussion please.

To begin with I'm not about to slander anybody for providing value to their teams or anybody else for that matter. There is definitely a call for guidance in what works and what doesn't when it comes to marketing your chosen opportunity and I am certainly not going to suggest anybody refrain from seeking out what works. Providing value works.

What I am going to be emphasising is the over dependence that those struggling  in the networking industry have in the belief the answer will eventually jump out of that training and grab them. It seldom does.

I was as guilty as the next man at this so I'll do my best to explain.

Hopefully somewhere within your back office or equivalent area there will be detailed instruction on what those achieving success with your opportunity have done to obtain their results. It's standard practice if a company wants any kind of success to provide training so hopefully you've read or watched it all several times over. Still struggling?

On and off-line their are countless good books written by people highly successful within ours and other industries, Eric Worre, Matt Morris and Robert Kiyosaki to name but a few. If you haven't already read any of their material I suggest you go off and do so at your earliest convenience. Follow the leaders.

In truth, reading any of the top titles by those authors should give you all the understanding and information you need to go out and be successful at what you are doing, unlike any other industry network marketing is completely unbiased toward who results can come too but in truth, many who try still struggle. Questionable use of the word try.

What I basically want to say, and you can object with your excuses if you wish is that you simply aren't talking to enough people and those you are speaking to, you're not doing in the right manner. Self Interest.

In essence, if you've done any of the above and are still struggling it's not more training that you need, it's get-up-and-go. If you can't get excited about your product, find out why. Find something that excites you, something that you believe in and something that you know will benefit others. Don't look for quick fixes, get rich quick or this is easy opportunities. The people you recruit into these will want just that and when it doesn't happen or it's not easy, they will be gone or idle for as long as they like.... Wouldn't you?

What you need to do is get out there. Whether it's on or off-line and start providing service and value to your targeted market. Not continuous affiliated links that produce little to no interaction but answers to questions, fixes for (real)problems and the type of thing that your client would be looking for.  You've heard it all before haven't you? So what's stopping you?

What is probably stopping you is a lack of faith in the results that emerge. Some will call it fear of failure, some self doubt and others excuses.

If you are truly hoping for success in your network marketing opportunity, develop the attitude to achieve it. Stop being fearful of rejection, stop prejudging the results, stop procrastinating on calling, visiting, mentioning or doing what deep in side you you know you need to do.

What I love about the network marketing industry is the focus on self development. Many seem to think they are two different things but I believe one requires the other and not always in the order that most expect. I've heard it all to often said that I'll do it when I gain the confidence without thought to where that confidence is coming from.

Confidence doesn't come from knowing how to do something, that's understanding. That's why all of the training in the world often isn't enough. Confidence comes from within, whether it's through appraisal, self forgiveness or just getting the job done.

Go out there and be who you want to be without listening to the doubt inside, If you don't get it right, so what, you will feel the benefits of trying, you will feel worthy of reward for your actions, you will gain all of the confidence that you need and the training will all fall into place.

Network marketing is a social business, go out and be sociable. If your success it going to rely on consuming truck loads of training how do you expect your prospect to react to that. They want to see how natural and easily duplicable results can be obtained, we are not sales people, we are personal developers and our first subject is us. Go get your experience, ignore the naysayers, concentrate on positive outcomes and develop the understanding to keep going. The results will come.

I hope you've found that helpful and if you would like further help or advice please feel free to ask. If I can't provide the solution, I work with a selfless team of supporters who probably can.

Have a great day and an amazing future.
