How to be a great Leader in Network Marketing

This is a post from my heart. I haven’t read any management style posts or corporate tosh on what makes a good leader. Everything I write here is completely Beth-made, so take from it what you will.

Why am I writing this way? Well, I believe successful leaders don’t just follow the rules, they won’t follow the path that has been made by others. They seek out their own path and walk the route less travelled.

Here are a few ways you can start to make yourself stand out from the crowd and start to attract and help create the leaders of tomorrow. (Whilst being a great leader in Network Marketing yourself.!!)

Listen More

Listening skills should really come with the territory when building your MLM. After all, you should be listening intently to your customers and working out whether you have the solution to their problem.

Where building teams and leaders is concerned you have to listen with different ears. If you are going to be a success, you need to be able to help others also become a success and one of the best ways you can do this, is to LISTEN.

Take the time to get to know your new team members. Find out what makes them tick, and find out what their goals and aspirations are. If they don’t have any, find out why and help them reach for the stars. Find out about their hobbies and interests and listen, listen, listen.

Trust your Intuition

Have you ever felt like you were brought to this planet to be more than a puppet on a string, working the 9-5 and lining up in the queue of life to get what everyone else has, a 9 to 5 job, married with 2 kids, watching 3 hours of TV every day and having $3752 in debt. Depressing isn’t it?

Or have you felt like me and always known that you came here to do so much more, only to have life throw you of course. The moment I started trusting my intuition and being more in tune with my soul, I finally started experiencing life in much more extraordinary way.

Intuition can help you make sound decisions and make the most of opportunities that come your way and with practice and patience, you can use your intuition to seek out the leaders of tomorrow. Soon you will know whether a prospect is worth pursuing or not.

Sometimes you will have a very strong feeling about someone and yet they might not jump at joining you in business straight away, but don’t be surprised if somewhere down the line they come in to your life again, either to do with your primary business or for some other joint venture.

When you know, you know and it’s usually when you have an extremely powerful connection with one another and just can’t put your finger on it.

Dare to Dream

Please don’t get caught up in the hype that joining an MLM or Network Marketing Company and duplicating what your sponsor tells you, will get you the life of your dreams. (I am sorry if I burst any bubbles there.) Whilst there are a small handful of successful network marketers that have made their wealth with one company and income stream alone, there are lots more who have diversified their incomes by creating, taking and dreaming up new opportunities as they go through life.

Leaders, (in my opinion) are people that never give up thinking about their next product, service, invention, business idea, joint venture etc. Not only are leaders opportunity seekers, but they are also creative in the mechanics of business, that being, how to find new prospects, using new technology, training techniques the list goes on. So don’t just dream it, live it.

Be approachable

Just because you are going to become a Leader doesn’t mean you have to turn your back on people when you get to that level. ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS, be approachable. Let people know it’s OK to contact you. Be available in as many different ways you can manage, whether on the phone, on Skype, on Facebook and twitter or by email. Let people know that you are available and that you will always find the time for them.

If you are busy (and if you are going to be a leader you will be…so get ready!), make sure your prospects and customers get the acknowledgement that you will schedule some time for them and stick to your word. Lying Leaders are Lame!

Lead the Leaders of Tomorrow

Recently I took a different approach to Network Marketing. Whilst selling products to potential customers and team members can work in helping build your business. The best and fastest way to build your business is to recruit Leaders!

So how do you spot a leader? Well you might need to be working in the same circles as others with similar passions as yourself…but look out for these clues. A Leader is someone who:

Is always busy
Built a business from the ground up
You consider to be a success
Knows everyone
Is a top sales person
Has multiple streams of income
Will stop at nothing to reach the top

Go after these people and you can never fail. I hope you found my post interesting, I would love to know what you think makes a good leader.

Yours in Success,

P.S. If you are sick and tired of trying to generate leads and making teeny-weeny commissions each month find out how I was able to make $5000 in commissions in just 30 days using this simple straight forward system

You are awesome Beth because you are teaching us how to spot leaders. We must use the description of what a leader is at all times.

It is great that you mentioned that leaders always think about their next project. We have to do what they do or else we in fact are not leaders.

We just have to listen twice as much as we talk. Without listening we will get nowhere.
