MLM Selling the Dream or Creating a Nightmare
by
Cherrie Fishlowitz
The dream of business ownership is real. Owning a business gives people the ability to control their own destiny as well as their financial future. When sharing our business opportunity we are selling this dream.
A small number of us do realize the dream, but there are so many more that the dream turns into a money sucking nightmare. Understanding what causes so many to fail will help you to truly sell the dream and not become a perpetuator of nightmares.
We play a roll in both sides of this MLM coin. The information we provide on our products as well as the business building tools we share with our downline can be the deciding factors in the success or failure of our business and the business of the people we bring on board. Look at what you promise and what you provide and decide if you are a fostering a dream or perpetuating a nightmare.
Our willingness to portray our products and business in an honest light certainly will give these dreamers a clear picture of what they will have to do in order to realize their own dreams as well as give them the upper hand when they are getting started. We have a responsibility when we take these people under our wings as part of our downline to give them the best of what is available.
Our primary focus for our new business partners should be assisting them to get their new business into profit. The quick and easy way to do this is to help them market their products. In order to do this effectively we have to have a firm grasp on our product line and be willing to educate our downline on what our product is and isn t. Product education is the first step in becoming an expert and the ability to portray yourself as an expert will go a long way in your ability to market your product and your business opportunity. When we share this with our downline we are helping them to create a business that is product based and also helping them to become an expert on their products.
So many MLM company s have drifted away from the product line and turned their focus to just business building. Think about the things that attracted you to your business. Sure, the money aspect played a roll in your decision making process, but when you think back to your own early days, wasn t it the product line that got you excited?
Lets face it, there are a few at the top who probably make a good living simply by bringing in business partners, but all of us didn t have the gift of timing so we have to work our business. For the rest of us we need to foster our downlines dreams and teach them how to market their product line. Your ability to achieve this could mean the difference between helping to fulfill a dream or creating a nightmare.
