Before you read this article know that it's not meant to
discourage. The point of this article is to educate you on
the main pitfalls of the beginning network marketer. Once
you know those pitfalls you can better learn how to avoid
them. Education is the one thing that will set you apart
from the struggling new home business owner.
To start, the first main pitfall of new network marketers
is lack of action. Now lets make the distinction between
the two types of action. The first type is what I see most
new Networkers do is what I call busy action.
This type of action kills new home business owners. This is
the type of action where you can find 14 different things
to do other than build your business.
You know exactly what I'm talking about, this is what is
termed "getting ready to get ready." I suffered from this
for about three years and I try to help others break away
from busy work.
The second type of action is revenue producing action. This
type of action is how you make your money, mainly talking
to prospects and getting your advertising out there.
Well now that we're talking about advertising that leads me
to my second downfall. The second downfall is when network
marketers have a severe lack of marketing dollars. If
you're not investing in your business then you're obviously
not taking it seriously anyways. This is what Jeffrey Combs
refers to as a "hobby" not a business.
If you want a hobby income then treat your business like a
hobby. If you want a full time income that you can quit
your job with then treat it like a business. So a marketing
budget for every month is essential.
The third downfall is a general lack of people or prospects
to talk to. If you aren't in daily contact with people you
aren't being productive. Having a lack of serious prospects
will kill your business fast. On the other hand, having an
abundance of prospects will put you into a totally
different mindset. This will put you into a prosperity
mindset and will really explode your business.
The last downfall of new home business owners is
underdeveloped skills. You MUST learn new skills if you
want to be successful in this industry. New skills are
essential to your advancement not only in this industry,
but as a leader. Once you start adding value to yourself
you become more attractive in the prospects eyes. When
prospects actually think they can learn something from you
then they will want to join you.
I suggest you start getting yourself educated and learn new
skills. This will not only help your business, but it will
also help your confidence. In the end the skills you have
will decide your fate, so start adding value to yourself
today.
