Consistent Effective Patterns = Long Term Success

Sounds simple right? So many people don’t understand this principle though. This year I’ve started a new series of daily habits. I wake up at the same time everyday, I exercise for 30 minutes, I eat breakfast (you’ve gotta try it), I drive to the office, and then I spend two entire hours doing only the things that are directly correlated with earning myself money. For me this is focusing on lead generation, contact vetting, and reaching out to event planners to book gigs and then following up. Here’s what it’s not — Tweeting, reading blogs, Facebooking, redesigning my website, writing an eBook, participating on forums, HR issues, attending meetings, checking email (unrelated to buyers), etc.

You found that great company with a service that you are excited about. 

You run through your warm market and sign up a few customers (just like your sponsor taught). 

Congratulations... You're on your way!

Here is where it gets a little tricky. 

You are almost through your warm list and now you need to meet some new people. 

Here is where ..."Consistent Effective Patterns = Long Term Success"... comes to play.

You MUST make a consistent effort to meeting new people and then place them in Your marketing funnel. 

This is a common practice that comes natural to many of the top MLM professionals.

They can casually walk up smoothly start a conversation with a perfect stranger and viola'... they have a new prospect.

Now seems like a very daunting task for an introvert like me... but I'm still a work in progress...(aren't er all) ;-)

That's one of the reasons why I've decided to utilize this blog as the primary platform for my business(s).

Here I plan to focus on keeping the main thing the main thing. (provide pure value)

One can easily get sidetracked with setting up and tweaking different blogs or focusing on other distractions that have nothing to do with one's business. 

The bottom line with MLM is that we are paid to gather both customers and customer gathers. If what your doing doesn't lead to that, it's clearly a waste of time.

So let's stop screwing around and get to work!

What Start-Ups Can Learn From a Crime Boss

‘Closed mouths don’t get fed,’ he would say. ‘If you want something, you have to either ask for it or walk up and take it.’ We can’t expect good fortune to fall into our lap. It’s our responsibility to create the circumstances for it and then capture that good fortune.

'Closed mouths don't get fed'...

These are words to live by... but I don't think blasting your Facebook wall or Twitter feed with your opportunity links is the way to go. 

Do you?

Notice the blog tag line... "Removing the Weirdness Factor from MLM"... 

My friend, that's exactly the type of shit I'm referring to.

I seriously doubt that their company's corporate training includes a module on spamming family and friends on the different social networks. :-)

Why do so many people do this? 

Hmmm... Maybe it works!

I know that it bugs the hell out of me.

'if you want something, you have to either ask for it or walk up and take it.'

Do you think that people wake up and say, "I hope someone comes up to me today and pitches me a business opportunity that may further complicate my life?" ...I seriously doubt it :-)

Don't you hate getting pitched on the "latest and greatest" when it's obvious that the person pitching doesn't give a crap about what you are doing or even cares if you're looking for anything.

Remember, everyone's a prospect... Right? :-) I don't think so

If people just took the time to ask the right kind of questions (before going into pitch mode) maybe people's perception of this industry would change.

Looks like we have a lot of work to do. 

Are you game?

Entrepreneur Success: It’s Not Always About You
http://www.caycon.com/blog/2012/01/entrepreneur-success-its-not-always-about-you/

Online businesses have removed the convenience of geographic connections. Today, remote relationships are far more important. The best way to turn someone into your devoted fan is to go out of your way to make them feel important. Put yourself first by putting others first as well. It really isn’t about how great you are but how you make others great.

Just like the last line from the quote above states... "it really isn't about how great you are but how you make others great"... 

This concept is the real beauty of the MLM profession. In order for you to become successful you must help others become successful.

MLM (Network Marketing) is truly a human business.

Until Next Time
