The first step in network marketing success is to DECIDE that you are going to prosper no matter what. Observe, that I didn't say that you are going to "give it a shot" or "see if it's going to work". Your way of thinking is your supreme asset, so you must tap into that resource. Success is a habit, and unfortunately so is failure. However, with any failure teaches you lessons that build towards your success. If you consistently get back up every time you fall down, you will inevitably reach your goal, it's only at matter of time.
The second step in network marketing secrets is to RESEARCH the company that you are going to join. Look at everything from the leadership, compensation plan to the products. Look at it honestly and if it makes sense to you then it could be a good company. But do not pounce at the first company you see just because a person is making $20k per month. That person is making $20k per month not you. It does not matter what someone else can produce, it only matters what YOU and your team can accomplish. Furthermore, take a step back and study the company for what it is and not what you choose it to be. There are a few companies that are merely going to drain your pockets without a lot to show for it. You can watch a training I did on Top MLM Companies and how to spot one on my blog.
The third step is to FIND MENTORS in your life that you can have a sincere, truthful alliance with that will teach you what to do. This might be one or a number of separate mentors. Now this is a delicate one because there are a lot of people out there that could seem truthful, however have their own agenda in mind. A good mentor will not generalize your relationship with them. They will actually dive into who you are as a person and understand that you may require different kinds of training than they did to accomplish your goals.
The fourth step is to COMMIT yourself entirely to the business that you have chosen as well as the teachings of your mentors. If you are married right now, would your significant other have said yes to you at the altar if you inserted in your vows that you would be 99% committed to the relationship? Of course not. You'd see them high tale it out of there. Your business had best be treated the same way. Unless you are committed you will unconsciously find ways to sabotage your own success.
The fifth step in network marketing secrets is PROSPECTING and PERSONAL BRANDING. Let us get under way with prospecting because this is a category many people fail in, and this in itself requires a whole other article. For now, just realize that prospecting is not pitching your business to everyone. Prospecting is asking questions to find out if a person is even open to your opportunity. If they are not open, don't even bother because you are just going to tick them off. There are 3 separate types of relationships that everybody has which is warm market, sphere of association and business contacts. Each one of these must to be identified and approached differently.
Now let us talk about personal branding, which is essential because no person will join you in business if you have no clue on how to be successful. In the process of building your business, it is vital that you brand yourself as a leader in the industry. The most desirable way to pull off this is on the internet using attraction marketing. These marketing strategies allow you to attract targeted people to you on autopilot, while branding yourself as a leader and an authority in the industry at the same time.
I advise using a self branding attraction marketing system that is already developed so you don't have to blow your time on creating everything yourself. A well designed attraction marketing system that works, will act as a platform for you to market on the internet, brand yourself as a leader and equip you with a sales funnel for your leads to come through.
The sixth step is to learn how to PROMOTE. Not just your business but also affiliate products to your list of prospect in your attraction marketing sales funnel. Promotion pays substantial money if you learn how to promote the right way. You can promote your primary opportunity and affiliate products applying the principles of leading with value. With promotion comes affiliate commissions and sign ups into your opportunity.
And finally, the seventh step in network marketing secrets is to TEACH this course to everyone you can, even if you don't make any money. This in itself is the core principles of attraction marketing. By giving value away for free, it further brands you as a leader in the industry and hoards of people will want to be in business with you because of the value you bring to their lives. This final step insures a very bright and profitable future that will pay you for the rest of your life.
