Tapping Into Your Full Potential

In online as well as off line marketing 97% of the folks are failing. Why is that? For starters most people don't take their business seriously enough to develop and incorporate the necessary business building actions. Many are working their businesses as if they were playing with their hobby. Success in any business venture requires going the extra mile...reaching beyond the comfort zone. In MLM and Affiliate Marketing, going the extra mile requires going beyond attempting to satisfy our own personal needs, wants and desires, and reaches outside of self. It requires going that extra mile to focus on and helping others achieve their needs, wants and desires. You'll note that successful MLM and Affiliate Marketers are taking the time and efforts to focus on their team. They are positioned to offer nurturing through leadership to their down-line.

How can you do that? * Have faith in your team * Encourage them * Show appreciation for them * Trust them and their judgments * Openly and honestly share with your team * Offer a system of support and training * Take responsibility when you make mistakes Leadership calls you to be an example to your organization. It calls for taking time to get to know the members of your team personally discovering what they need to effectively build their business, and offering acknowledgment for a job well done. It requires you to put your actions where your mouth is...actions speaks louder than words. Stop for a moment and give this some thought.
