How to be in the 3% of network marketers that succeed

Let's face it, residual income is and has been for years the greatest way to make money. It's like a movie star making a movie once and getting paid royalties every time it airs. Most of us work at jobs in which we get paid for time worked and that's it. We get laid off or quit the checks are gone.

Network Marketing has gotten it's share of bad reviews. Mostly from people that tried it and failed. There isn't anything magical about how to succeed in network marketing.

1) Find a company that has stood the test of time and proven itself.

2) Make sure that the products they have are actually going to benefit the customers and is something that would be appealing to a wide range of people. ( make sure that the company is customer focused rather than representative focused, meaning that the money that the reps make are coming from products sold, not just from acquiring reps or self consuming....that would be a pyramid scam)

3) Get in for the long haul. Think of it as a 2-5 year plan. There is no get rich quick and those that make claims or promises you x amount of money in the first month are lying to you.

4) Make sure that you get sponsored under someone that is committed to mentoring you. This is very important. You cannot build your organization alone. A good mentor will walk you through it step by step, until it comes naturally for you. A good system will be simple enough to duplicate. Creating a strong team not only gives credibility to the company but creates momentum which creates success.

5) Networking is building relationships. It's not who's the greatest sales person but rather, who will people trust. You need to genuinely care about the customer to sell them your product just as you need to care about the person joining your team because they trust you not to scam them.

6)Don't push people into anything because they will be the ones to complain in the end. If you run your business with integrity and are excited about what you are doing, people will come. You treat them well and word of mouth travels faster than any other advertising or lead generating things because you have built a relationship and a reputation.


When I found the right combination in a company and a great mentoring upline, things really changed for me and got exciting. I had tried many different opportunities and it just didn't give me the results that I was looking for. I have a great team now, a company that focuses on retaining customers and a product that people use everyday. We have a foundation that with hard work can put people in that 3% success rate or rather 50% or even 100% ....why not!
