The Single Biggest Mistake 99% Make When Starting a Network Marketing Business





After you found the product and company that excites and motivates you and started your network marketing program, your brain is in high gear. You can't even sleep at night. You are thinking of all the lives that your new opportunity can touch and change.

You are especially happy about presenting your MLM program to your good friend "Sally". Why "Sally"? Because of all the people you know, "Sally" needs it the most. She will now be able to pay her bills, buy Christmas presents, and most of all get back on her feet again, because she deserves it. After all, when you hit it big time, you especially want "Sally" to be right there with you! So, the first chance you get you go running to "Sally's" apartment, and shout, "Sally, I've done it. I'm so excited. I've found a way for us to hit it big time. I mean millionaires!"

You share your enthusiasm and program details of how "Sally" can benefit from network marketing. "Sally" says, "no". After you pick yourself up from the floor, your mind is spinning for an answer. You can't come up with anything that's reasonable. You keep thinking how "Sally", of all people, needs this business. After all, if she had been the one that found this opportunity you would have joined in a heartbeat (and thanked your lucky stars). You keep coming back to how she really needs this opportunity.

This happens all the time to beginners in network marketing when presenting their new business to their friends. You want to work with them. You want them to share in the success that you are sure you will achieve.

The problem is that they aren't interested. Not interested in the products. Not interested in the business. They are skeptical of your chances even. What's going on here?

It's simple really. You want them to be successful with you before they can see if for themselves. Or it's because someone has already soured them on network marketing and they can no longer see it as a viable opportunity. Either way, you see it and they don't or can't.

Anytime you want someone's success than they do, they will never come into your business. If they do sign up (probably from begging) you will find that you will also have to beg them to work. This of course is a mistake that we all make when we get started. It's never a mistake to talk to people about your opportunity. The mistake is wasting your time on people that are not interested (no matter who that might be). Your time is best spent looking for people that are looking for you.
