The #1 Rule For Success

If you look at most people in the world who are successful, they have one thing in common:  They have all failed. Lots.

The major thing that sets the winners apart is that they persevere through those times. Don’t believe what you may have heard about success in MLM — it does not come quickly. Getting rich quick is only possible through the lottery. For the rest of us, you need to work hard and persevere. The only way to do this is to Love What You Do. I think that Steve Jobs summed it up best in this short clip.

Everything he says here is directly applicable to Network Marketing.

1. You need to love what you’re doing. Otherwise, you aren’t going to be able to endure the tough times and all the people putting you down.
2. Get good at scouting talent. When you talk with a prospect, you’ll need to identify quickly, without knowing them well, if they will be a good fit for your team, or if you’d be best to just land them as a customer and make them as happy as possible in that role. If you’re going to need to spend more time on training them because you know that they aren’t leadership or entrepreneur material, then maybe you shouldn’t pursue them for your team. The faster you can do this, the quicker you can move on to the next lead.
