The failure rate in network marketing is astonishing. 90% of all new network marketers fail with in three months of joining any online business. Should this make you feel guilty for the people in your downline who don’t make it? I am sure there are a lot of marketers, whether network, internet, or mlm marketers, that can relate to how frustrating it is to find serious prospects. Prospects, which have the drive and determination to succeed and have longevity in your business opportunity.

There may come a time in your marketing career when you feel none of the hard work you’re doing isn’t paying off. The help you are providing to your prospects to start their business isn’t working. You know that if you can’t help them make money within 3-6 months they will leave or quit. So you try to find way to motivate them, but you find the duplication process is not duplicating like it should. After this happens you may find yourself spending 90% of your time creating new systems of duplication: websites and tools. Thinking this will help them acquire success, they said they wanted. You may find yourself so consumed with your team’s duplication, that you stop sponsoring all together and go into a management state. However, the crazy part is you notice that even this is not working. It doesn’t matter how much you want someone to succeed. The prospects that are getting results continued to get results and the prospects who are stagnant continue to be stagnant.

You have to understand this right now. The only way your business and downline is going to grow is to be a leader and lead by example. Do what you need to do to build your online business, keep prospecting, advertising, following up, and beginner orientations. Only have one training a week for all your new distributors. Spend most of your time with your top producer’s one on one. It’s all about continuing to find new distributors as well as finding distributors with in your business that produce and succeed. The frustrating part about new prospects is that most of them will never be serious. They are just looking for the get rich quick over night biz. So there’s only one thing you can do and that is don’t indulge in their weaknesses, don’t waste your time and energy worrying, and don’t change your websites, tools or system if they work for you.

You have to develop a tough skin if you want longevity and success in this industry. Continue to build your business and lead by example. You will notice that the right entrepreneurs will find you and start to follow you. Except absolutely no negativity into your life, leave the welfare mentality out of the equation.   Your not here to save every person, you’re here to provide them with a way out. They have to be willing to take the reins of their lives and want to take action. It’s a better idea to find the prospects who take action. Then it is to turn the lazy and welfare mentality prospect into them. 

The last pointer I will leave you with is leverage. As a smart business owner, you will want to leverage numbers in your business growth.   Then you won’t even notice the people who have a welfare mentality. The easiest way to leverage numbers is marketing and advertising. Then develop a list that you can advertise to over time. The new contacts will bring new, interested prospects and reps to the table. So let’s recap, get rid of the welfare mentality. Continue to find prospects that want to take action. Worry about your business and the producers and you will have longevity and success for years to come. Here’s to your success.
