One unfortunate phenomenon of network marketing is the "revolving door" syndrome. This where people think that if one program is good, two are better. If you're doing two, why not add another couple? After all, one of them is sure to take off!
Not!
Success in the network marketing industry does not lie with the opportunity - it relies on the person. For example, a person with excellent skills can succeed and make lots of money in any organization -- even one with a bad compensation plan.
On the other hand, an unskilled individual can't make a go of it in an opportunity with top-notch compensation.
Well...how does one get skilled? It's both extremely simple and terribly difficult.
Step one is you have to truly desire to be a success in your business. Without that desire and determination, you don't stand a chance.
Step two is to ask your sponsor what training is available. Are there meetings, conference calls, online training? Does his or her team have a monthly meeting? Is there anything to read?
Step three is to get additional, generic training. Training that is applicable to any organization, and in fact no organization in particular is mentioned. The focus of the training is on the skills necessary -- no matter if you are selling nutritional products, telecommunication services or gas additives.
Step four is to get out and apply that training! Sure, maybe at first you feel awkward and unsure of yourself. That's common. But it's also necessary to build up your skills. For example, I can read day and night about playing the violin-- but when I actually pick one up I doubt I'll be playing in a symphony!
Skill and determination are necessary for any successful network marketing venture. Remember, it's not the plan.
It's the person.
