Three Key Facets of Successful Network
Marketing |
| By Kirk
Bannerman
Network marketing has many
aspects, but promotion, persistence,
and patience are
three key elements which are critical to
achieving
successful results.
PROMOTION is the lifeblood of
network marketing. Whether you
are using online methods or
offline methods, or a combination of
both, you must
constantly strive to get your offering in front of
a
targeted audience.
There are thousands of published
sources that deal with specific
methods of network
marketing (both online and offline), but the
key point to
be made here is that you must have an active
promotion
campaign designed to bring in a steady stream of
new
prospective downline members.
PERSISTENCE is a
key element in network marketing success.
You've gotta
"just keep on keepin' on", even though frustation
levels
can be quite high at times.
After you have been at it a
while, and have a downline large
enough to provide
reasonably accurate statistics, you will
probably find
that about 95% of your downline members are dormant
and do
nothing at all. Its easy to get down in the dumps or take
it personally when you encounter so many "do nothing"
people.
Therefore, it is really important work with and
actively support
the 5% or so that are serious about
participating. And clearly,
an active and effective
promotion campaign will continue to
bring in increasing
numbers of potential participants so that
while 5% is small
on a percentage basis, it can still be a
sizeable amount
from a pure numbers standpoint.
PATIENCE is vital. You
can expect that it will take about a year
before the awsome
power of geometric growth kicks in.
A classic
illustration of geometric growth is the frequently used
penny-a-day example.
If you save one penny on the
first day, and double it every
successive day, (day two
you have 2 pennies and day three you have
4 pennies, and
so on) how much will you have at the end of
30 days? The
answer, to the astonishment of many, is $5,368,708!
Amazing, but true.
Its a sad statistic that most
network marketers fail and it is
often traceable to the
fact that they did not exhibit enough
persistence and
patience to continue constantly promoting their
business
for the year or so that is required for
success.
Network marketers that stick with it for a
year or more often end
up becoming the proverbial "heavy
hitters".
In closing, I would like to encourage you to
increase your chances
of becoming a successful network
marketer by always keeping a
clear focus on "the three
P's" of Promotion, Persistence, and
Patience.
