Support From Professionals

Being a network marketer means that oftentimes you are working on your own. You need to stay motivate and focused on the job at hand, even on the days that it feels like you're swimming upstream. Often your family and friends don't truly understand what it is that you do and how hard you need to work. Many people drop out of the network marketing profession due to frustration and lack of support.

I read somewhere that the people who ultimately succeed in the MLM/Network Marketing world, are those who stick with it. They pick a good company based on doing their research and due diligence. Then they make a commitment to learn the business and keep working. The successful people in this field are not the one's who go into it expecting to be earning 10K a month after six months. Some people do hit the jackpot and experience that velocity of success. Most however work steadily over a period of a few years to build their downlines and their knowledge base. Most people who stay in it and work consistently, will be successful.

There is a great free newsletter called Healthy Freedom Secrets that provides an outline for everything from choosing your network marketing company to understanding the type of prospecting that fits best with your personality, to how to get organized and get support. You can find it at healthyfreedomsecrets.com.

Start at the beginning ...working from home

It’s really amazing!! The day before I was planning on beginning this blog I found a book by Mark and Rene Reid Yarnell called Your First year in Network Marketing. For those of you who don’t know, Mark Yarnell is considered a master Network Marketer. I believe at one point he was named the best Network Marketer in the WORLD!! Anyway, I’ve just started reading the book and the first thing that struck me was the idea that success in network marketing is about staying with it. He wrote that so many people get discouraged and drop out of the business in the first year, but that those who stick it out are usually successful.

Hmm….The focus of my upcoming website and soon-to-be ebook, is the idea that It’s All Success. What I mean by that is that even something that feels like failure, can be success if you learn from it and use it to propel you forward towards your goal. It appears that Mr. Yarnell might be saying a similar thing. In the field of psychology there’s something called “reframing”. It’s a fancy name for taking an event and using the power of your intellect to change the meaning that you give to that event. An event or situation has power to effect you emotionally, either negatively or positively depending on the meaning that you give to it.

I like what I’ve read so far in this book because it helps me feel that my results so far after only 6 months as a network marketer are actually OK. So many people in my company have catapulted to the top levels in 6-9 months. I’m doing well, but not that well. Mr. Yarnell says that the goal of the first year as a network marketer is just to stay in the game…not to quit. I’ll let you know what he says next, as I keep reading. Meanwhile…stay positive and stay with it. We’ll learn how together, as we become successful in our work at home businesses.
