Day in the life of a networker. The foundation of success for MLM leaders

Time is one of the main and valuable resources of a person. If you analyze the lives of people who have reached the heights in the network marketing industry, one trait unites them all - a well-thought-out daily schedule. Leaders have a specific plan of action in which tasks are scheduled by the hour/day of the week.

Creating a work schedule is a task that newcomers in network companies often struggle with. We have gathered advice from experts and leaders in the multi-level marketing industry that will help you quickly advance your business and create a stable flow of new partners into the structure.

How to Create a Work Schedule. MLM Leaders' Advice

Charles Holmes

blogger, writer, founder Holmes Internet Marketing. Online since 2002

- Allocate at least 4 hours per week to search for new team members. Alternatively, you can work on this for 1 hour per day.

- Train and assist new distributors. You can personally write to the most timid distributors to clarify if everything is okay.

- Monitor incoming leads and respond promptly to them.

Each point in this plan may seem very simple and banal, but not every networker works on attracting new distributors daily. Attracting and training newcomers is important to do every day. Trying to tackle this task in a short period of time, you risk burning out quickly or losing potential partners.

Charles divides networkers into those who want to develop a business within 1-2 years and achieve a six-figure income (which, unfortunately, is a minority) and those who see network marketing as a source of additional income and do not dedicate enough time to developing the structure. Regardless of the income you aspire to, consistency is all that matters for success in direct sales.

Jackie Ulmer

business coach, founder of the StreetSmartWealth podcast. In network marketing since 1999

- Write to potential partners and ask them to review your presentation with a proposal;

- Remind those who have not yet responded to your team invitation email about yourself;

- Focus on self-improvement and skill development.

Business will most likely change your usual daily routine because for its development, it is important to do something every day. Formulate your daily plan, break it down into "blocks," and enter them into your calendar (for example, it is convenient to do this in Google Calendar). Ideally, reminders about basic daily tasks should come daily.

Set a goal to become the coolest boss you know. This will drive you in the right direction, constantly improving your business skills. A cool leader effortlessly attracts new partners like a magnet.

Ray Higdon

business coach, writer, speaker, and former leader of Numis. In network marketing since 2009

- Create new content for your blog (article, video, or podcast);

- Spend 30 minutes learning about sales, marketing, and psychology of human relationships;

- Meditate for at least 20 minutes a day.

In business, people should not be treated as "pieces of meat" from which achieving a specific action is important (e.g., buying a product or entering into a partnership).Study how business relationships and trust are built between people, and by applying new knowledge in your work, you will be amazed by their effectiveness. Some of the leaders of the Ray team asked to work in her network business themselves, not even suspecting that she had already noticed them as potential partners.

Promoting network business is a "long-term game". During the training phase, help the newcomer define a development strategy for 2-3 years and do not give false hopes regarding the speed of growth. Success in network business is determined by small but consistent actions.

Simon Chan

business coach, founder of the MLM Nation project. In the network since 2003

- Create 3 structural blocks of content;

- Meet 5 interesting people;

- Find 5 people to invite to the team.

- Ask 3 potential partners to review the proposal and arrange a meeting (online call).

Chan's advice may seem difficult, but by engaging in such networking daily, you will quickly achieve results - scaling the structure in geometric progression and, consequently, your earnings. The 3-5-5-3 method is a unique approach to building an effective networker schedule.

If you don't like sitting at work for hours, perform daily actions by distributing them throughout the day. The idea is to set specific and clear tasks that are important to perform correctly, regularly, but not necessarily all at once.

Tanya Aliza

- Find 3-5 potential partners;

- Meet personally with 3-5 new contacts;

- Create an intriguing post on social networks.

Choose a suitable time for performing routine work tasks, focus on completing them, and then you can do what you enjoy.

For example, Tanya does not work with her team "on demand" and does not spend the whole day waiting for responses to messages. She follows her work plan in the morning and returns to work in the evening to respond to people or help partners.
