5 Scandalous Misconceptions That People Make About Network Marketing And How To Avoid Them

It seems network marketing has taken the world by storm.
This inventive manner of direct selling allows the customer to
become a representative of the network marketing program.
As a result, the customer turned sponsor would be given the
opportunity to earn from his efforts.

Network marketing has been misrepresented to the online
audience in recent years, further elevating its popularity to new
heights. Enticing a lot of people to join so called network marketing
programs in this day and age.

But only a few are succeeding.

The reason? It’s because countless network marketers are
committing the same mistakes over and over again. Instead of
learning from the errors of their predecessors, they fall victim
to the very same faults, thus jeopardizing their chances of
attaining success in the business of network marketing

What are these mistakes? And how can you avoid them?

1.Believing that MLM is a “get rich quick” scheme.
The fact is, you will have to work – and you will have to work
hard – to be able to achieve success with network marketing,
whether it is conducted online or offline. Though eventually,
you’d be able to receive recurring income from the sales that
would be generated by your down line.

You will have to extend a lot of effort to establish a solid team
of committed individuals who will share your devotion to the
program. Though all of this may seem like hard work, network
marketing remains a very rewarding opportunity for anyone who
would be wise enough to invest their time and energy to building
their network marketing homebased business

2.Believing your own hype.
And this haughty disposition could very well be your number
one obstacle to attaining success with your network marketing
business Don’t get me wrong. A certain level of confidence will
serve you well. After all, and you have to believe in your network
marketing business to be able to convince others to join the cause.
And this requires confidence – the right kind of confidence, that is.

3.Leads are useless.
This kind of attitude is doomed from the very beginning. Leads
are the lifeblood of any network marketing campaign.
Leads represent your prospects, your future recruits. Without
leads, your network marketing campaign is sure to be a failure.

4.Generating a certain volume of leads is enough.
Again, this is an attitude that would spell doom for your success.
Lead generation is, as it should be, a continuous commitment.
It should never cease. Even if you feel that you have generated
enough leads from which you could convert some into new team
members.

There will come a time when all those leads would be exhausted.
What then? Where will you gather your earning potentials if you
have stopped looking for leads? A network marketer’s task is
to continuously – and unceasingly – discover and educate new
prospects everyday.

5.Lack of focus.
Many network marketers are being led to believe that they
should join as many MLM programs as allowable to provide
for themselves multiple streams of income from which they
could diversify their earnings.


This could prove dangerous.
Spreading yourself too thin by engaging in multiple programs at
the same time would make you lose your focus. Instead of
concentrating all your efforts to achieve success with one
program, you’d be dividing your limited time among several
platforms.

The best way to deal with things is to firmly establish yourself a
solid down line from which you could earn some reccuring
income in a sustainable system at a substantial level. This way,
you’d be ensuring that you’ll receive some income from your
business even while you’re vacationing on the beach.

Knowledge, they say, is half the battle won.

Knowing the common mistakes that uneducated network
marketers make is the first step towards success, as it will
guarantee that you won’t fall prey to what has caused their
failure. Learn from them, and succeed where they have fallen.

To get the knowledge necessary to be successful in your
network marketing business. You need to be learning from
a team of people who are using and teaching a proven duplicatable
system. The system that I recommend is Mentoring for Free.
