COMMON PITFALLS FOR FRESH NETWORKERS

In my opinion, active marketing is one of the most delicate jobs to do because just a little misuse of words could result in a downturn of events, while products that don't even match up to half the quality of yours make the sales. But as a rule of thumb in the business of marketing, keep your product out there. Same goes

for networking. As a networker, you aren't marketing goods, your basic commodity is 'opportunity'. Here are a few pitfalls to avoid in your quest for network expansion. I'm going to try and be as pragmatic and concise as possible...

Education factor: In our scouting for downlines, it is often the case that we tend to profile our prospect, sidelining those who appear to be uneducated judging from the angle of formal education simply because we feel that the dynamics and tenets of the business will be abstruse to them. But in the wake of recent events, we fin that many of the guys who sit at the top of these chains are people who will get discombobulated and eventually exasperated just reading a line of my articles. Never confuse for professional literacy for shrewdness. These are the guys who grew up in extremely harsh conditions, hustled their ways into decent lifestyles, they're more aggressive than you are, more passionate than you are for financial liberation. One such red-hot prospect can change the destiny of your network. Bottom line, never look down on your prospects.
 

Poor paper skill: It takes a sedulous attitude to concurrently keep a journal, and sadly that is one thing that most networkers don't do. The human mind is built to spontaneously explore the realm of thoughts, buffering and downloading ideas, reminders, etc, which you cannot all recall in latter times. Besides the epiphanies, it is highly imperative for a diligent networker to keep track of his activities, appointments, and even appraise his performance on marketing presentations, and generally scrutinize his success. If you want to succeed as a networker, inculcating the lifestyle of scribbling is not an option. Scrutinize your ploys first on paper before execution. Your tablet or smartphones can be explored for this purpose.
 

Going solo: My dear friends, mother nature has taught us that no branch abscised from its trunk can survive on its own except it be fallen vertically deep into the ground, else it decomposes makes a good manure for its mother tree. That's exactly what happens when you choose to go solo  in the cradle stage of your business, you gradually lose the momentum, suffer in ignorance, until you eventually retire and have your money be taken for a generous gift to your uplines and not an investment. No matter how much you know, never be too grumpy to work in a team. Even the holy book says verbatim 'where no counsel is, the people fall, but in the multitude of counselors there is safety - Proverbs 11:4.'
 

Surreal expectations: For most of us, immediately after the business presentations that convinced us to sign up, we fantasized of becoming filthy rich in 3 to 4 months from the time. Personally I've found that early retirement of networkers is most often an epiphenomenon of unrealistic dreams. It is absolutely good to dream, but when your dream cannot be logically understood, it has become a fiction. For some people, situations and circumstances happened to congruently work so fast in their favor, the right people came along, they were at the right places in time, and so their success was unrefutably swift. But in above 85% of the case, success in MLM is steady but sometimes intermittent.
 

Lending to prospects: There could be a very strong temptation sometimes to lend to your prospects who show encouraging levels of enthusiasm because of the passionate desire to make quick profits. As enticing as this can be, it could also be very counterproductive. I personally gainsay lending to prospects for whatsoever reason there be, except on very rare and dire conditions where you're extremely confident in your prospect. In the much inchoative stages of my MLM career, my mother happened to sponsor my fiance and she's never regretted that step ever since. In summary, thoroughly and meticulously vet every lending situation like it's a life-threatening investment.
