Sun, March 19, 2006 - 2:32 PMMy main advice would be to treat it like a real business! A lot of people starting an MLM for the first or even 30th time, treat MLM like a hobby when it's really a business commitment. You need to set goals, have a written prospect plan or a list of prospects and a calendar scheduling out your time commitment.
Think of this: If you were at your current job, and your friend asked you to go to the movies, would you just pick up and leave your job? No way! Well, that's the way people treat MLM (weird huh?)...
So, my point is, treat is like a business and you'll go far! If someone calls and asks you to go to the movies but you have to "make calls" for your MLM business, you should let them know that you are busy and working your business.
My main bottom line to a newbie such as yourself is: Expect people to say, "NO!", expect people to say, "YES" but keep your goals aligned with your time commitment and keep doing your business consistently!
To your success,
Maria
