Show Love to Your Network Marketing Team During the Holidays

December 24, 2013 by Toni Coleman-Brown Leave a Comment

The holiday season is a great time to show love to your network marketing team.  In case you didn’t know this, people join network marketing organizations for the friendship, recognition and the financial reward.  Pretty much in that order, but somehow we make the mistake of believing that it’s all about the money when it’s really not.

Mary Kay Ash taught us a long time ago that in a field dominated by women, (which the home-based business industry is 80% women) most are looking for that nice ribbon in recognition for their accomplishments.  Mary Kay is the only network marketing company today that focuses HEAVILY on rewards, prizes and gifts.  And people wonder why the company is so solid and strong.  It is because it is built on a foundation that recognizes reps who put in the work.

Network Marketing Reps are starving for recognition

The truth of the matter is network marketing reps are starving for that little bit of attention that they don’t get from home nor do they get from work.  It is the responsibility of the team leader to ensure that his/her team is rewarded and recognized for their efforts.  If you want a team that has a high level of retention, then show them the love and respect that they deserve and you will have a low attrition rate, which is something that most network marketing companies would die for.

It’s really a simple thing that is often overlooked by leaders who are often so focused on recruiting to fill a leaking bucket.  A lot of mlm leaders think that all they have to do is produce.  They make a big mistake in leaving the recognition up to the company, but the company don’t know the reps like you do.  The company can’t speak from their hearts like you can, so never leave recognition up to the company.  I don’t care how much it may cost you as a leader, but it is always a good idea to find a way to reward and recognize your team.  Here are some low costs things that you can do:

1.  Send a hand written note.

2.  Create your own “pin” incentive program.  Pins are not that expensive and they go a long way.

3.  Run your own contests.

4.  Pick up the phone and give your people a call.

5.  Host your own private mastermind/leadership events for your team only.

You will hear a lot people say don’t go into management mode and that these things that I mentioned are management mode and non-revenue producing activities.  But I beg to differ.  These things are relationship building activities, and relationships are the heart and soul of network marketing.  Therefore if you don’t take the time to build relationships, you will have missed the whole point of being involved in the industry.

There are 3 things you must do as a network marketer, which is create, advance and sustain momentum.  And building solid relationships is an important part of sustaining momentum.  And there is no better time for sustaining your momentum than the holiday season.

So, take some time to wish your key people a Happy Holiday Season, trust me, it will go a long way in helping you to grow in the New Year.

With your success in mind,  Toni

Not Making Money in MLM?

March 13, 2013 by Toni Coleman-Brown Leave a Comment

If you’re not making money in MLM then maybe you should consider this:

  1.  Maybe it’s time to change companies
  2. Maybe it’s time to for you to change. Period.

The MLM industry is probably one of the most exhilarating and exhausting industries in the world.  What makes it difficult is the fact that you have to deal with so many different people.  What makes if fun and exciting is the fact that you get leverage.  There are not too many business around that promotes the fact that you can earn money while you sleep or while you lay in the sun at the beach.  But this is exactly what you can do when you join an MLM company.

The biggest complaint that I hear from most people is the fact that they’re just not making money in MLM.  And in some cases they may very need to re-consider the mlm company that they decided to join.  Some companies compensations plans are so horrible that the reps end up having to work like a Hebrew slave in order to make a few hundred dollars.  This is especially true in party plan companies.

Party plan companies are great, because they allow you to put right now money in your pocket, but what happens when you host a party and you don’t generate any sales.  You end up expending a lot of time and money on activities that leave you with empty pockets.  If this happens to you a lot, then it is seriously time for you to re-consider the company and the products or maybe it’s time for you to change.

Not Making Money in MLM can be solved through training.

Training is the key to making money in any business whether it’s in the mlm industry or not.  You must learn to be that type of person that’s not happy unless you’re learning something new.  “Jim Rohn once said that “a formal education will earn you a living, but self education will earn you a fortune.”  And he was so right.  And to add the icing on the cake everyone knows that it’s not just the knowledge that gives you the power, it’s what you do with the knowledge or how you apply it that really gives you the power.

If you can connect with the right people who have the right information that could help you along he way, then you can and will have success.  If you sit at the feet of the right leaders and practice what you’ve learned, a strange thing will happen, you will begin to change.  It’s called personal growth and once you begin to grow so will your income.

You know that no matter how many times Donald Trump loses money, he will always turn around and make more money.  That’s because success is built upon many failures.  Some people call it failing forward.  And that’s a good thing because you’re moving in the right direction no matter how many times you fall.

So, if you’re not making money in mlm then you need to surround yourself with the right people and the right information to get yourself on the right track.  And before you know it, success will be yours.

With your success in mind,

Toni Coleman Brown
