Your telephone rings, you say hello and the voice on
the other end of the line asks, “What is the specific,
number one reason you are building your Network
Marketing business?”
Could you answer immediately or would you have to
think about it awhile?
Strong organizations are built by leaders with strong
reasons. When you wake up every morning you are
thinking about one of two things: your reasons or
the work.
The work — phone calls, emails, follow-up letters,
3-way calls, etc — won’t turn you on and provide
you with the motivation needed to do your business.
Your REASONS focused upon WILL!
Stop for a minute and think about some of the
successful leaders in your company. What were
their reasons for getting involved with your company?
Over the years I have heard hundreds and hundreds
of stories about people near bankruptcy, high medical bills,
terrible jobs, unemployment, and many other strong
REASONS that motivated them to develop their Network
Marketing Business.
You can sit in training meetings every week, attend
Super Saturday Training’s for the next five years,
attend every company convention, and be on a
different mlm training webinar every night but:
UNTIL YOU KNOW WHY, THE HOW DOESN’T MATTER.
You have up line leadership that can teach you HOW
to do the business, but they can’t provide you the
REASONS for doing it. Your reasons are personal
and must come from within.
One of the first steps we teach leaders with every
distributor who sponsors into your company is to
have them complete a “20 Reason’s Sheet”.
We even have the forms available to those who
invest in our Start Right MLM program at
http://www.StartRightMLM.com
After they complete it, they make a copy and
give it to their upline leader. All network marketing
leaders should know exactly why their people are
doing the business, but more importantly, we want
all new distributors to know why.
This is an excellent management tool that I highly
recommend that you consider using. People do things
for their reasons, not ours. Their 20 Reason’s Sheet
can become your carrot or in some cases, your stick.
When you are talking to new associates, You should
talk about their reasons for doing the business, not
yours!
Once they know why, they are well on their way to
learning “how.” Until next time, make sure you
are prepared if the phone rings and the voice on the
other end asks, “why?”
Dawn and I must be getting old. Have you
ever noticed that the older we get the more
in a routine we become? Every Sunday night
we head to Starbucks. It has become our
ritual.
Anyway as we were heading to Starbucks
tonight I made the statement. “It is a lot
different now driving to Starbucks because
I know the road and what is coming nextâ€
When we first started driving to Starbucks
Dawn had to tell me every turn because I
didn’t know the roads. Through repetition
I have figured it out.
If you ever hear anything from me, hear this
“NETWORK MARKETING IS PREDICTABLEâ€
If you have been reading this blog or follow
any of my other mlm training programs,
you have heard me drive this point home.
In the MLM training DVD “The Road to $10,000
a Month in Network Marketing†I lay out the
entire process that you will go through. You
can see the video at the bottom of the page
here: http://www.mlmhelp.com/Products/PersDev.html
I talk about free lead generation learning
process you will go through in our free
publication 6 D MLM Training at
http://www.6DMLMTraining.com
I have discussed the entire concept of
predictability dozens of times with people
who have been around the industry a long
time.
Once you understand this concept it becomes
a game changer. You quit trying to change
THE WAY IT IS and learn to simply WORK WITH
THE WAY IT IS.
Our real product in the network marketing
industry is people. I can’t tell you what 1 person
will do but I can tell you what 100 people will
do. “People as individuals are very unpredictable
but the masses of people are very predictableâ€
We all follow the same path, and the road to
$10,000 a month is no different. After you
understand the road it is much easier to
navigate.
The key word in the title is “WORKING”. Most network
marketing organizations are filled with what I call
“Social Club Members”. They like hanging out with
the crowd, but have never really, CONSISTENTLY
worked their business.
This stage is predictable. It usually happens after
a distributor has been working for 2-3 years. They
have a group of 50-100 distributors or more, but very
few are producing.
These people have worked hard, but usually
feel over come with the question:
“Is it ever going to happen for ME?â€
I recently read a Facebook post by a well known
network marketer who made the statement, “In
network marketing you get paid exactly what you
are worthâ€
I respectfully DISAGREE. That is simply not true. You
must understand the reality of the Time & Money
Chart that we have shared on various mlm training
programs.
In the BEGINNING you do a lot of work YOU DON’T GET
PAID FOR, but Later on You get paid for a lot of work you
don’t do. THAT IS THE TRUTH!
Let me share an email I received last week.
******************
Mr. Calvert,
I just wanted to let you know that your Frustrated &
Anxious Training on CD along with your Power of a
Dream DVD, stopped me from making the worst decision
of my life and quitting my business.
I had worked hard for 31 months and felt I had little to
show for my efforts. I was ready to quit. I had a talk
with my upline and told them of my intentions.
They made me promise to watch 1 DVD and listen to
1 audio CD before I quit. They sent me your Frustrated
and Anxious CD from your Pure Motivation set and your
Power of a Dream DVD.
I decided to give it one more year, to make 4 “90-Day Runsâ€
as you teach in another CD from the set. My 3rd 90 day run
I recruited a lady, that wanted it bad. I start her right
because my upline has incorporated your Start Right program
throughout his entire team.
To make a long story short, her organization is growing and
more important duplicating. I have also recruited a young
man (he came from a $100 Bill Drop Card) that is also doing
a fantastic job and building quite a team.
You are so right, after you finally find your 1st person that is
willing to work and be teachable, EVERYTHING DOES CHANGE!
I am truly excited about my business, and please let everyone
know that the Frustrated and Anxious training is worth 100X
the investment in the entire Pure Motivation Set.
I look forward to meeting you personally someday.

Ladies and gentleman, you have heard me
say it 1,000 times, but we all do follow the
same path to success in network marketing.
IT IS PREDICTABLE.
I also like to call the Frustrated and Anxious stage
the “How Bad do you REALLY Want it Stage?â€
Persistence, is probably one of the most
overlooked factors of success.
Understand, that if you persist you succeed!

Not to worry, unlike 99% of the “consultantsâ€
and “trainers†in the industry, I DO NOT HAVE
an opportunity to pitch you. LOL
I was doing some research this morning and found it
interesting that over 6000 people a month search
Google for the keyword phrase New MLM Company.
That tells me there is a good chance that
frustrated distributors are searching for a new mlm
company to make them successful. I may be totally
off base here, but that is what the search term new
mlm company suggest to me, what about you?
The truth is if you have trouble building company
ABC, then you will have trouble building company
WXYZ.
Building a network marketing business is like
any other profession in life. It requires a certain set of
skill sets. More importantly in network marketing
is your MIND SET. Quite frankly very few professions
in life prepare you for the mind set it takes to succeed
in network marketing.
When a person finds a new “ground floor†opportunity
nothing good will happen if they bring to the new
mlm company the same skill sets and mind sets of
the past.
Yes, there is something to be said for being in the
right place at the right time. However, just because
you are there when a new mlm company starts
does not guarantee you success.
Focus on developing the proper mind set and
skills sets. Success in MLM happens when preparation
meets opportunity. Unfortunately many distributors
never prepare. It starts with understanding and
developing the correct mindset.
Companies, products, and compensation plans will
never marke you successful. Your mindset and
skill sets will ultimately create your success or lack
there of in network marketing.

Putting the MLM Pieces Together, “The Leadership
Development Philosophyâ€
Last weekend Dawn and I stopped at a road side stand
and bought several pounds of produce. Fresh Blueberries,
A Dozen ears of corn, tomatoes, cucumbers, etc.
This afternoon I was shucking corn on the porch and
couldn’t help but think about Jim Rohn’s story of the
parable of the sewer.
(At 3 Basic Laws http://www.3BasicLaws.com)
It is hard to believe that one cornel of corn can create
such a harvest. You have to plant in order to reap.
The problem with most network marketers is they
expect a great harvest with minimal seed planting.
Yes, when you plant, the birds are going to get some
and the heat will destroy some. But …..if you continue
to plant eventually the seed will take root and multiply
10 foe.
You have to continue to plant, daily, weekly and
monthly. Recruiting is numbers! We are all looking
for the right person at the RIGHT TIME in their life!
If you own 3 Basic Laws, it may be a good idea to
review the DVD set this week. Getting this conept
from my head to my heart was business altering
for me, and it could be for you as well.
