Welcome back!
Are you a confident person? If you are not confident, it will be very hard for you to succeed in network marketing because this business is all about leadership and motivation. How can you lead and motivate your downlines if your confidence level is shaky and weak?
Sometimes, it is very sad to find many network marketers struggling to sponsor their very first downline. This is normal, but you must not dwell in this stage for too long because it is detrimental to your confidence. You see, fear causes inaction, and inaction causes a lack of results and the longer your lack of results show itself, the more fear it creates because people in network marketing are getting ahead of you and you are still in the first stage!
Therefore, the first step towards becoming more confident is to TAKE ACTION. By taking action you will automatically gain confidence. They say that a skydiver’s greatest fear is not the jump itself but rather the wait before the jump. As they stare at the raging sky, their fear intensifies until the moment they step off the plane! Network marketing is just like that. You have to make that first phone call or show your first plan (or run your first opportunity talk). Whatever it is, just get the job done.
The next part about building your confidence is NOT to spend too much time reading network marketing books. A lot of your success depends on your knowledge in network marketing. This is true but too much analysis will lead to paralysis. Having too much knowledge without applying it is a surefire way to failure. The graves of many unsuccessful distributors are filled with people with all the knowledge about network marketing except how to take action and make money with that knowledge.
Another good way to build your confidence is to focus on building your network personally.
Sometimes, a distributor can spend so much time with their ONE golden downline, that they become too dependent on that one line. Very soon, you will find that downline moving up even to the point of surpassing you. When your downline starts making more money than you, your own upline will wind up spending more time with him or her and this could shatter your confidence! So dont rest! Always go out there and sponsor more people personally rather than by yourself.
Lastly, if you have little confidence when it comes to sponsoring, you can consider generating leads on the Internet. You face less rejections that way and you can still pitch your offer without the fear of people saying no directly in your face.
One great system of generating leads on the internet today is the MLM Lead System Pro. This is a fully branded, customizable lead-generation system which combines Attraction Marketing with the Funded-proposal concept. Using this remarkable system, sponsoring your downlines has never been easier even for the zero-confidence network marketer.
