How long do you need to recruit for?
Today
I wanted to talk about how long do you need to be recruiting for?
Sometimes new
people in network marketing or people who don't understand network marketing
will ask you questions like, “Well, how many people do I need to recruit? How
long do I need to be recruiting for? How long do I need to be selling for?”
And
you see, for me, if you understand that network marketing is a business, that
network marketing is a profession, then you shouldn't have that question because
it's same as a surgeon saying, “Well, how many more of these operations do I
need to do?” “Well, you'll be doing them for the rest of your career.” Or like
chef saying, “Well, how many more of these dishes do I need to cook?” “You’ll
cook them for the rest of your life? That's the job you chose. That's the
career you chose. So you'll be doing that, for the rest of your life.” If
you're in real estate, you're not going to go, “Well how many more of these
houses do I need to sell?” “Well, as many as you can for the rest of your
career?”
So same in network marketing, like being a surgeon, like being a chef,
like being a real estate agent, when you in network marketing, you don't ask,
“Well, how many more do I need to recruit?” “Thousands.” You're going to be
doing this for the rest of your career. You're never going to stop recruiting,
you're never going to stop sharing your products with other people because
that's your profession, that's the industry you chose, that's the business you
chose.
I
think the reason why a lot of people ask that question is because they go recruited
into network marketing on the wrong pretence, they got recruited in a tricky
way, where somebody said to them, “Well, all you need to do is just bring in
three people. And those three people bring three people and those three people
bring three people, and you're a millionaire.
So when a person comes with that
mentality, that I only need to recruit three people, then they keep asking, “Well,
how many more do “I need to recruit? How long do I need to keep prospecting
for?” Because they were not introduced into network marketing as a profession,
as a industry as a career where you're going to be doing this for the rest of
your life. And I've seen somebody, also, we were sitting with one of the top
leaders in the company making huge money, has a team, a massive team, and somebody else asked her, they said, “Oh, so you still recruiting? You’re still
doing your job?” And she went, “Of course.” But why did the person asked that?
Because their idea of passive income was that you do something once, and then
you stop working for the rest of your life.
And a lot of you probably have the
same notion of passive income, that you do something once and that's it, you
don't need to work ever again. But that's not how passive income works. Yes,
passive income is when you do the job once and you get paid again and again and
again, on the job, which in network marketing, that exactly how it works.
Like
I've introduced some people into the business eight years ago, and I still get
paid today, on their shopping, on the people that they bring into the business,
and so on, and so on and so, but that doesn't mean I stopped working, what I
bring that one or two people, I carry on bringing other people into the
business because as far as I'm aware, there's still people who need help, there's
still people who want to earn more money, there's still people out there who
need what I have to offer.
So
yes I do the job once that I get paid forever on that job but it doesn't mean I
stopped working. It doesn't mean I stopped introducing other people. It doesn't
mean I stop showing my products to other people. It doesn't mean that because
like who else is earning passive income? Well, authors, the write the book once,
and then they get paid forever on that book, but do they stop writing after
releasing one book? No, they keep writing new books.
Singers, they release a
song, and they get paid forever on that song, but do they stop singing? Do they
stopped releasing new songs? No, they keep doing that. So if you're a network
marketer and you’re going, “Well, I've recruited five already, how many more do
I need to recruit?” Then you’re bloody insane, because you don't understand how
the industry works. You don't understand how a career works. You don't stop
doing something, you keep doing it.
So if you’re in network marketing, and you
going to be recruiting people for the rest of your career, you're never going
to stop introducing people to your business, you never going to stop
introducing people to your products, because that would just be crazy. Like why
would you, if you were a doctor, why would you stop doing operations? If you
were a chef, why would you stop cooking? If you were to real estate agents, why
would you stop selling houses? You never stop that. Yes, you get paid on your
previous work, which is awesome, but you don't stop doing it.
So
if you are one of those people going, “Oh, how many more do I need to recruit?
How many more do I need to sell?” This career might not be for you. You may be
better off just doing a normal job because clearly, you're not getting the
network marketing industry.
