Productivity in Network Marketing
December 24, 2019Today
I wanted to talk about productivity in network marketing. I love how Ray Higdon
says that it's okay to have a low production week but it's not okay to have a
no production week in network marketing. So what does that mean?
Well it basically
means that for me, I always look at your network marketing business, like a
shop. So if you had a corner shop, if you had a grocery store and you didn't
roll up the shutters in the morning, then how much money could you expect to
make at the end of that day? And if you are not insane, your answer should be
zero. Since you haven't opened the shutters clearly nobody can come into your
shop and buy anything. So same way I look at your network marketing business.
If you haven't opened your mouth today and spoken to anybody about your business
or about your products, that means your network marketing shop was closed
today, your network marketing business was closed today.
So you cannot expect then
to earn any money. So if you're prospecting, if the amount of people that you
speak to about your business in a week's time is less than 10 then you’re just
not serious about growing your network marketing business, you just not serious
about making money in this business. We have a group of business partners called
millionaires in training and their goal is to do a minimum of five contacts a
day, on social media, and then a couple face to face. But then again, that's a
baseline level of activity, which means minimum level of activity. Most of them
do a lot more than that. They do maybe 10 contacts a day, 15 contacts a day, 20
contacts a day, some of them are very committed and they will do 50, 60
contacts a day in order to grow their network marketing business because not
every person that you reach out to on social media or face to face not every
person will respond to you, not every person will be interested etcetera. You
know that you can only control your activity you can't control your results.
So
the more people you reach out to, the more results you're going to get. My personal
goal is also to reach out to 50 to 150 people a day. So on a good day I might reach
out to like 150 people on a not so good day, if I'm super busy, then I might
just do maybe 40, 50 a day. But the idea is that that's ideal world and it's
not always going to be like that, so some days you are traveling to another
country or some days things just happen in your life where you got swamped with
activity.
But what I want you to think always is that there should be
no days of no activity; so it's okay to have a low activity but it shouldn't be
a day with no activity. So you might have a super crazy day. But at least you
sent five messages so that you can go to bed in the evening thinking I still
did something for my business, you know what I mean? Maybe you just message one
team member today instead of five, maybe you just ask one person to take a look
at your product or whatever but you then at the end of the day, you feel that
you haven't wasted that day, that you still did something to grow your
business.
So it doesn't mean that as a network marketer, you should be grinding
day in day out, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Yeah, if you have
a huge goal, if you want to have a breakthrough maybe for a short period of
time, yes, you have to really go at it. Like Eric Wore trains their recruiting
20 people in 30 days where you have to do like 16 hour days of intense work to
really have that lift off because Eric Wore talks about the airplane, when the
airplane is on the runway, if you just do 50% acceleration, airplane is not
going to take off, if you do 60 is not going to take off, if you do 80, it's
still not going to take off, you have to go hundred percent to take off the
runway to get the airplane off the ground but you don't have to go the hundred
percent all of the way through until you get the destination because you’re
just going to burn through the fuel. So once the airplane is in the air, you
can go, “Woo.” Put it on the cruise control a little bit, but then if you want
to take it to the next level, guess what, again, you have to increase the
throttle.
So
same in your network marketing business, in order to take off, you might do
some intensive work for some short period of time, but you're not going to go
16 hour days for the rest of your life because you’ll just burn out, but what I
mean is that you should always do at least something to push your business
forward, to put at least something into the business, to roll that shatter up
at least a little bit.
So that's my
message for today. Low activity is much better than no activity. Do not ever
accept no activity from yourself. You should never allow yourself to have a day
of no activity towards the business because I believe, especially now with
social media, there's no excuse. I've been reading Frazer Brookes, I dare you
and I love his toilet technique. So he goes every time you’re on the toilet,
you should be with your phone in hand reaching out to some people. So he goes,
the only thing you shouldn't do, you shouldn't go live while you're on the
toilet, but a part of that you can send some messages, you can interact with
other people, you can reach out to some people as you on a toilet and
it doesn't take much, it doesn't take a lot of time, it’s just few minutes. So you
should always do at least some activity in your business. So that's my message
for today.
That’s my training and tip for you. Hope you got value some value in
