Great Listening Skills for Network Marketers
How are your listening skills?
Did you know that the #1 Skill that all top negotiators and producers in the direct sales industry will tell you is devastatingly simple and can be practiced by anyone? Here it is:
The more you listen, the more you will recruit and sell!
Better still, learning to listen will improve your friendships and home life!
Sure, there’s a time to get enthusiastic and do the talking when you’re involved in network marketing but keep everything permission-based – engage your prospect first by asking questions first to show you care – I know you do care because you’re in this industry but..
…just don’t forget to show it.
So ask questions in order to find out what your prospects’ situation, experience, and goals are then…
Sit back and listen… develop great listening skills and build a relationship !
Also remember that you want to have a true impact on people’s lives, right?
So work from a place of integrity where you ask questions to ensure there’s a good fit between your offer and your prospects’ and new business friends’ needs.
Now, obviously, you don’t want to disqualify anyone because so often those that you may think will join your business will not and others will surprise you by joining…
…and that’s precisely why you have to ask those burning and important questions to help potential candidates qualify and sell themselves on your business.
By asking questions you shift the focus from yourself and onto your prospects and motivate those that have a strong reason why & level of commitment to step forward and take action.
Using great listening skills then makes the prospecting process less about sales, at least in the hard sell sense of the word, and more about network marketing in which you become a ‘professional inviter’ and provider of information to candidates rather than a pushy sales person who clearly has a greater interest in money and themselves than in providing a valuable service.
Wouldn’t you rather be a professional inviter, sorting through potential candidates with your great listening skills, than someone who will take money from anyone for money’s sake?
The most important question to consider in all of this for the sake of your sanity is this:
How will your team look in 6 months’ time when you have attracted and recruited the right people into your business?
You will most likely find that, with the right business partners, your enthusiasm and energy levels will be even higher in 6 months’ time than they are now with much high duplication levels than if you try building your business in any other way !
This is just a smart way to build a team and a business!
Watch the video below now and do me a favor and share with anyone you think would benefit from this information or who could use a subtle reminder
of how important it is to listen lol 
Now let’s help You build a team of motivated, like-minded entrepreneurs who share your passion and are exactly where they should be ~ on your team ~ and who over time come to support you as much as you supported them when they started out.
Work on developing great listening skills daily as part of your overall strategy to become a master communicator for higher conversions and a true life-style by design

Get Aligned to Escape the Rat Race !
Get aligned and be fulfilled!
Align what you do with your true interests and core beliefs or your glass will ALWAYS be half empty!
So many people cannot stand their job or even their business because they are doing the wrong thing and I can’t help
feeling sorry for them.
I absolutely know how that feels and also how hard it can be for anyone to break away from the daily grind of the mundane.
Most simply don’t know how to escape the rat race and keep chugging along without knowing how to get out of their current situation.
Yep, I’ve been there, and before I decided to take charge of my own life I remember working jobs that made 5 out of 7 days of my week a tedious and unpleasant gap between the fun at weekends!

Know the feeling?

Work from home business opportunities & Your Health!
Work from home business opportunities provide the kind of lifestyle that so many overworked commuters can only dream about:
a life in which you call the shots, set your own schedule, and have the freedom to decide what You want to do when you want with anyone you want.
However Staying Healthy As A Home-Based Business Owner is Key!
Most people pursuing work from home business opportunities put a lot of effort into being successful. So much so, it is easy to forget about taking care of your health. Many home-based businesses today are carried out almost entirely online, and that means a lot of sitting and very little exercise.
To stay healthy when you work at home, you really have to put in a conscious effort.
It is easy to get wrapped up into finishing a project so you stay glued to your computer and push yourself to stick it out. Did you know if you regularly take short breaks and get up and move around, you will be more energetic and able to think more clearly… and actually get more done?
How many times have you sat at your desk and fought to stay awake while you worked on your duties?
It probably happens quite a bit. To stay alert and focused, there is no need to rely on coffee or other stimulants. Just:
- Get more exercise instead.
- Set a timer to keep you focused and for great time management, and
- Get up periodically and get your blood pumping.
Take a brisk walk around the block or hop on your treadmill. In addition to those short breaks to recharge, you should also aim to get at least thirty minutes of moderately intense exercise every day. This will help you stay healthier and ward off obesity and other ailments that accompany a sedentary lifestyle.
Don’t forget to watch your diet too. Eat healthy snacks of raw vegetables, fruits, seeds and nuts, rather than munching on high-carb chips or candy while you are working. Refined carbs and sugar will only cause a rebound effect that makes you sleepy later on.
So remember, whether you’re already a home-based business owner or currently doing your due diligence on various work from home business opportunities,
in order to be at the top of your game, you have to feel alert and be productive. A good diet and plenty of exercise can help you get there.
Most importantly, don’t forget that all the wealth and freedom in the world are meaningless if you don’t have your health!
Dare to dream but choose your home-based business carefully – make sure the business model allows you to leverage your precious time and efforts so that you can live a full, healthy and happy life!

Why So Many Startup Home Based Business Owners Struggle and 3 Actions You Must Take to Guarantee Success
Why do so many startup home based business owners struggle and what specific actions must you take to ensure your own success?
I’d like to help you find the answer by introducing you to three characters you may recognize to some degree.
Perhaps you know some startup home based business owners who resemble the 3 characters below in some way.
I hope you find this fun but also valuable – heck, who doesn’t find this kind of exercise of reflection useful to their business ?
I know I did. So here are our 3 friends:
John is a complete and utter failure in everything he touches and his web based home business is no exception.
He has invested good money in his business but he is close to packing it in already after only a few months.
Ted, on the other hand, has the “Midas touch” and his computer is like an ATM to him that he takes everywhere on his travels as he works his web based home business while enjoying total freedom, from the white sand of the Cayman islands to the classy hotels where he frequently stays in Vegas with his wife.
Jane is 90% of the way there but is missing one key element that keeps her in the “poor house.”
They are all startup home based business owners, but to see their websites you would not know that their respective average incomes range from $150 per month to $22000 per month.
How can this be?
Surprising until you look a little deeper.
First of all, John has confused having a startup home based business with a J-O-B. He literally expects the cheques to roll in from the first month and, unlike success business people, is NOT working his “tail off” to ensure his business gets off to a fast start.
You have guessed it!
He has fallen for the get-rich-quick lie that the Internet is a machine that spits out money
as soon as you have a website. No long-term commitment or strategy = failure for 98% of Internet
marketers.
You see, John outsources his website creation to designers and sits back paying no attention to search engine optimization, expecting a torrent of customers overnight.
Now Ted, on the other hand, is what some people call an “Internet rock star.”
From day one, he treated his web based home business like any other business that required commitment and hard work.
Sure he knew that the Internet represented a unique opportunity since his business would
be running 24/7.
BUT – he recognized that to earn good or even great money he would have to work at it
relentlessly, perhaps even harder than a traditional franchise opportunity.
As you know, a Macdonalds franchise
can expect customers on the day of opening.
But Ted knew that his web based home business would at first be invisible!
Ted works tirelessly and on a daily basis employs a few highly effective marketing strategies,
performing income-producing activities, and developing a skillset that allows him to provide value
- the cheques follow and grow over time
but he also has a secret ingredient detailed below.
Now Jane has a beautiful website and is working hard to provide value
and build a web based home business. She has a long-term view and is developing skills in writing articles for her website, building up her social media lists, and studying a lot.
She is working hard and is 90% of the way there.
Her income is far less than 90% of Ted’s, however!
So what’s missing?
No-one knows her website exists, she has no articles outside her website,
and she is not taking consistent, income-producing action to establish an authority presence online.
So here are the 3 Steps You Must Take to Build a successful startup home based business:
1) Work harder on yourself than you do on your business -(as the late Jim Rohn says) develop leadership qualities that attract
people to your business and give you the self-discipline and
mindset that brings success
2) Find an experienced Internet success trainer who will kickstart your profitability
with effective marketing strategies and hold you accountable
to take consistent action and be persistent.
3) Find the right business model and compensation plan that allows you to be profitable.
The business model and compensation plan is the secret ingredient I mentioned above that largely explains why Ted is now averaging over $20000 per month.
He has found a company with integrity, selling recession-proof, highly valuable products in today’s new economy.
