Honesty is the best policy when it comes
to network marketing.
There are a lot of MLM companies in the world
today that teaches their people to operate in
a manner that does not seem straight forward.
They believe that they would be able to close
more sales and sign up more downlines if they
do not use the ‘M’ or ‘N’ word (The MLM or
network marketing word…)
The problem lies in the fact that people are
completely embarrassed about their network
marketing opportunity!
They are afraid that their friends will reject
them even before they start to share about
their wonderful opportunity!
Some of the sleazy tactics that people employ
include:
A distributor calling their friend out for a drink
without telling them that a ‘friend’ will be coming
but that friend turns out to be the upline or
sponsor of the distributor and they spring their
network marketing opportunity on their
unsuspecting friend.
Doing the same thing as the one above except this
time, they are bringing their upline(s) to the
home of the person without informing about the
presence of these strangers (to the host).
Tricking their friends into attending a business
opportunity meeting without revealing what
the business opportunity is all about. This
is widely used by a particularly large network
marketing company and they teach their reps
never to mention the ‘A’ word.
Inviting friends and family to a home party
which also turns out to be a business opportunity
talk. It is time to stop the insanity.
The more you hide your opportunity, the more
your prospect will disrespect you because you
are acting in a shady and suspicious manner
about your business. It is as though you are
ashamed of what you are doing and you will only
tell them about it when you want to get them
to join you.
If you want to achieve success in network marketing
– don’t hide it… go public about your career.
After all, your career is no different from any
other businessman or doctor, lawyer, engineer,
etc… Here are a few ways to make sure you can
avoid the ‘business opportunity’ pitfall.
When someone asks you what you are doing, tell
them that you are in network marketing. Be up
front, be honest and be PROUD of your business.
You don’t need to be too desperate about
approaching somebody to join you. In fact,
when you take your time to educate and share
about your opportunity, it will ensure that
others will not run away from you.
Lastly, respect people’s opinion about the
network marketing industry. Don’t get into
an argument about it because a person convinced
against his/her will is of the same opinion
still. So take your time and focus on education.
