Is There Luck in Network Marketing

There are numerous factors involved with becoming successful at network marketing, and one of them is tough work, another being dedication. What many of us fail to get is that network marketing is a job your business – it’s not a hobby. To be successful you must commit yourself to your business and work methodically toward your targets.

On today’s show, lets talk more about luck and how to create it!

Welcome to the show. At the recent Go Pro event in Las Vegas, a question was asked - is there luck in Network Marketing.

What do you think?

A big part of moving from the thought of luck to it really just being business skills involves success language, which we will cover in a moment.

The best resource I have on this is StreetSmartScripts.com and here is Holly from Australia's Testimonial on the product -

Thanks Holly, I am so glad you have uncovered some blocks and are making steps to get better. That’s really the trick!

Does Network Marketing success involve Luck?

We create our own luck through the actions we take.

We might see someone who has built a successful business; maybe they recruited the top real estate agent in their town, and that person is building a huge business. We might say - gosh, how lucky.

But, let’s think about luck. That “luck” was created when that person stepped outside the comfort zone and contacted, invited and presented.

So, what is lucky about that? I’m sure that person heard no plenty.

What are your daily, weekly and monthly targets? Do you know? Are they written down? How are you going to create luck?

Success in Network Marketing is not about -

Age

Education - yes, business skills are important but these are developed along the way

Background

Income levels

Success requires a system - everyone needs that and you have a proven one already.

Now, timing is another thing. There is something to be said about timing.

Right time, right place and right mindset to take action!

Opportunity must meet preparedness.

You catch someone with a big center of influence when their timing was right. Are you lucky? No, you are ready and in action, creating your own luck then.

Don't become a statistic of the times. In bad times, people join. In good times, people join. Fact is, I became a distributor when I did because I was scared.

Not because I might make millions of dollars, but I sure hoped I would.

Along the way I developed a deep respect for the profession and what I had my hands on. With a way of doing business that deeply aligned with my values.

Those of us who are lucky work like this - We get up every morning and we go to work.

That is the required discipline. Consistency on a regular basis. Have a strong work ethic. You get paid based on that work ethic. PERIOD. What you have done before does not matter. It’s what you do in THIS business that will pay yuo.

Always be on the lookout for others with a strong work ethic. Have a clear identity of yourself as a pro. I'm a recruiter, I'm good at it and getting better all of the time.

A recruiter goes out to search the best in the land to build a winning team. I'm looking for those people who desire what I have to offer.

How do you feel about what you do? What's your professional identity and how do you feel about that identity? Get clear on your thoughts around network marketing.

Have a big picture. Share the big picture.

Invite people to step into the big picture. Explain the full potential of the pay plan. Know how to explain the basics. Not everything, you’ll overwhelm people.

Lay out the marketing model and share how to get the numbers on the page. That is all that matters, numbers on the page, which includes -

Numbers on your list

Numbers you have contacted; invited; shared with; shown; followed up with; sponsored; trained and started.

It’s not the money. It’s what the money in the pay plan takes care of.

Shared by a speaker at the Go Pro event -

1989 started a Monday night call with 5 people, now 500-800 on call. Mon morn call is for leadership

4 fundamentals

Self responsibility - if you want the results you must accept the responsibility

Self determination - passion do what needs to be done to get the results. What's your dmo? The consistency of that won't let you down.

Self motivation - too many depend on outside motivators. Results motivate.

Self functioning - at what level do you function?

You are in control of the outcome.

Stay in a prosperous, positive, productive state

Then, luck will be yours!

ACTION STEPS

What “lucky steps” are you taking daily?

Have you made and contacted your lucky list? Your million dollar list?

Are you prepared when opportunity shows up, even disguised?

Are you sharing the big picture so others can create some luck, too?
