MLM Training- Keeping your MLM Team ONFIRE and Motivated
Author: Doug Firebaugh
MLM Motivation.
Two very misunderstood concepts. The average network marketer
today wants to keep their team motivated and FIRED UP! That is
normal, as you always want them to be mentally and
psychologically elevated for Success in Network Marketing.
But here is the challenge:
INFERNO Secret;
You CANNOT motivate anyone to Success. They must motivate
themselves. We waste so much time, even a lot of trainers that
teach motivation, trying to get the team and people pumped,
juiced, jammed, onFire and motivated.
It simply is not going to happen unless you follow the Rules of
Reality in MLM Motivation. These rules are based in reality, not
hype, and honesty, not empty enthusiasm.
Ok...what are the 5 Rules of Reality in Network Marketing
Motivation?
1) You MUST INSPIRE, not just Motivate.
The greek definition for INSPIRE is "breath within." This means
that you must create within the person the "breath" of
confidence and energy that they can connect to and embrace.
How?
Modeling.
You must be the role model and guide to show your mlm folks that
you are worthy of following, and are a leader. Do what you ask
them to do, and do it BIG. Show them that you believe in what
you are saying, and you do it daily. And through your actions
and words, let them "breathe" into their hearts, and keep them
inspired and wanting to follow you into a greater life of
Success in MLM.
2) You MUST Praise, not just Promote.
Praise is the secret weapon to motivating people. Many times, we
will promote the new folks who went up a pin level, and that is
important. But praising someone for a valiant effort will
motivate 10 times more.
Why?
People will always appreciate being appreciated for the effort,
not just the result. Motivation must have a foundation of praise
and recognition. If you have that foundation and praise and
recognize your people for their efforts, you will find that
there will be more pin levels to celebrate.
3) You MUST pour into them what has been ignored.
Most people never get much of any encouragement. That is out job
in MLM. We must encourage those who not only need it, but all
who are on your team. There is nothing more motivating than the
right word at the right time. A word of belief, or a word of "I
am there with you" can go a long way in keeping people onFIRE.
You must pour into your team Big Thinking, Big Belief, Big
Vision, Big Future, Big Life. You must constantly say the 4 most
powerful words in network marketing: "I believe in you."
If you pour into the person what has been ignored most of their
life, they will follow you wherever you go, for the rest of
their life. They will become 'addicted" to your encouragement
and hope that they feel from you.
4) You MUST introduce new Success ideas and Bigger Possibilities
into their heart.
New ideas that enlarge a person are worth their weight in gold
in MLM. Have you ever seen someone get ignited when they had an
"aha" moment? You need to become the "aha master" and
continually introduce new Success and possibilities into their
life. Most jobs and family cultures are limited and shrink most
people's dreams. Enlarge your teams' dreams.
The Million Dollar question: WHY ARE YOU THINKING SO SMALL?
Ramp your team up with some Success ideas that will expand and
enlarge their brains beyond where they have ever been!
5) You MUST give personal time and attention to those who
deserve it.
Nothing motivates more than personal attention in Network
Marketing. Focusing in on one person for a time, maybe over
lunch or coffee, and pouring into them individually. Personal
encouragement is a great way to give personal attention to
folks. Find out what is meaningful to them. Find out what they
TRULY want in life, and listen to why. Discover what is
important in life to them and why. Ask what they want to change
more than anything about their life. Ask about family, kids,
faith, hobbies, interests, etc.
Find out WHO THEY ARE.
Discover what trips their trigger, and get them so excited that
they would be 24/7 to get it. That is giving someone personal
time and attention. It is worth it's weight in gold.
You cannot motivate anyone. But you can inspire and pour into
them so they will motivate themselves to create an MLM business
that could make them wealthy.
Now THAT is true motivation in MLM and Network Marketing!
