Training for Network Marketing

It is very easy for a person to tell you that network marketing will transform your life for good, but it is important that you know that there is no magic when it comes to the network marketing field. Just like any other field, you need adequate training before you go out and start building your network. Otherwise, you will get frustrated and disappointed when you get into it without training. Network marketing training will make you more confident, because you cannot succeed unless confidence is part of you. 

 

This is because you will meet many people, who you will be selling the idea to, and nobody wants to follow a person who is not confident. In the most successful network marketing companies, those who are more experienced in the company usually take those who are new through practical training sessions by accompanying them to their field work sessions and letting them actually see what goes on in the real world.

 

Different companies have different network marketing training, but the trainings usually revolve around the same thing; confidence and motivation. Some network marketing sessions are usually charged, especially the ones where expensive motivational speakers are invited. Some network marketing training sessions, however, are free, and are usually paid for by the company. Going for such trainings is vey important, because you get to meet other people who are running the same race as you are, and this motivates you. Also, you get to learn from the experiences and ideas of others, so that it will be much easier for you. 

 

Network marketing training also helps you develop yourself. There are many skills that one has that are underdeveloped, and others just lie there dormant and undeveloped. However, network marketing training acts as a developing tool to those skills, and they benefit you in the long run. 

 

For instance, some of the skills that are developed in network marketing training are public speaking skills confidence. This is a skill that every person needs, not only for use in network marketing but in everyday life. Also, the confidence to stand before many people is gained through these training sessions. Also, depending on the level of training you get, you can apply the knowledge of the human psychology, such that you are able to know what every person is thinking or what their attitude towards something is when you are speaking to them.

Why People Misunderstand Network Marketing

Network marketing is a strategy that can take any company and individual to a much higher level that they currently are, but this can only happen when network marketing is clearly understood. Companies need to understand network marketing, and marketers and distributors need to understand it too. When these two parties get the right understanding of network marketing, then consumers will understand and appreciate network marketing.

 

One of the major reasons why people misunderstand network marketing is the fact that they have friends or relatives who have been in it before, and they have failed miserably. Others have relatives and friends who have lost a lot of money on network marketing schemes that turned out to be scams or frauds. This gives them cold chills every time network marketing is mentioned to them. 

 

They therefore get the wrong perception of it, and they also become biased against every product sold by network marketing, no matter how good it may be. Most people miss out on products that could change their lives simply because it is sold through network marketing. It is shocking to know that if these same people would find the same products on the shelf of the convenience store, they would believe everything the product is said to be, and they would purchase it without any question. 

 

Another thing that makes people have the wrong understanding of network marketing is the fact that network marketers are known for bothering and being insisting, such that they become a nuisance. They are very pestering in telling you to either buy the product or join the network or do both – at the same time, in the same stride. So, when a person sees a network marketer approaching, they run in the opposite direction, hoping to turn and see him no more. But like a shadow, the marketer follows the person till he “catches” them or is callously turned away by the person.

 

The first thing one need to do is to have a clear understanding of what network marketing really is. It is a strategy used by companies whereby instead of using the normal supply chain which uses middlemen, a distributor network is used. Therefore, absolutely no middle men are used, and no commercial advertising by the company is done. 

 

As a result, the supply chain is a manufacturer – distributor – consumer chain. The middle men excluded include the transporter, distributors (depots and warehouses), wholesalers, retailers and others like advertisers, sales people and promoters.

Are You Reborn Every Day?

Every year we celebrate another year of life. We make special plans for the day and appreciate knowing that on this one day in the year, our life becomes the focus of the significant people with who we are privileged to share our life. There is a child inside all of us when it comes to the celebration of our birthday, with its sense of fun, of friendship and of celebration of all that is good. 

 

Someone once said that it is a shame that we can’t have a birthday every day. How true are those words? We put so much time and energy into preparations for that day. Imagine if every day of our lives was spent with the same feeling of preparation and anticipation. Seize the Day is a saying made popular in movies, but it’s equally applicable in our lives. When was the last time you lived each day as if it was potentially your last day on this earth and packed it full of experiences, celebrations, friendship and fun? 

 

We often let days pass without really thinking too much about how we spend them. Weeks pass without us realizing how many wasted opportunities we have let slip past us because we are so focused on surviving the day and all we try to pack into it. 

 

Try to re-focus your life this week. Take a few minutes at the beginning of the week to put a plan into action that reflects the things and the people that are important to you. Create some short-term goals of things you would like to see accomplished with week and plan a celebration with family and friends for a week from today. 

 

As each day ends, look at the goals or the ideas you had for that day and ask yourself if you accomplished them. Reflect on how they affected you and what they added to your life and how good they made you feel. Allow your inner self to be reborn as you reflect with excitement the beautiful butterfly you saw when you went on your walk, or the delightful coffee you had with a work colleague you hadn’t seen in a while. 

 

As the weekends, call your family and friends around you and celebrate together not just your birthday, but also your week of rebirth days, and make this a life habit.

Have You Treated Yourself to a Cappuccino Today?

Maybe you don’t like coffee and that is okay. The question is really asking whether you have given yourself permission to do something for you today. Maybe you went to the shops or had a game of golf with the boys. Maybe you decided to go see the latest movie by your favorite actor. If you did it for yourself, you are on the way to stay healthy. Many of us feel guilty if we do things for ourselves or we may do them out of a feeling of guilt. 

 

Whilst this may prove to be immediately justifiable, the problem over time is that if we constantly deny ourselves things for the sake of helping others or because we question our right to do things for ourselves, eventually we can become quite burnt out and resentful about our circumstances. 

 

Allowing ourselves to self-care means we allow ourselves to have that cappuccino with a friend rather than stay home and do the dishes. It means giving ourselves permission to go to the gym rather than feeling that report that needs writing can’t wait. Most of the time, with a little planning we can care for personal wellbeing and that simple step is guaranteed to increase our productivity and well-being both at home and at work. 

 

Next time you decide to think twice about something you want to do ask yourself why you are considering saying no to doing it. Of course, there are times when saying no is a necessity, but if it’s something your routinely say, try saying yes to a few things. 

 

As you look after your own needs first, it becomes easier to look after the responsibilities that consume most of your day. Saying no to going to a gym regularly increases your energy and concentration levels. That report that may have taken 2 hours to complete, may now only require an hour of your time, and your body will thank you for it too.

 

Socializing with friends has been shown to increase emotional well-being considerably. Taking time to socialize will improve the quality of time you spend with family and friends and in your attitudes to everyday activities in your life. Over time, you will find it gets easier to look after your own needs, and you will realize it’s not selfish to do this, and the feelings of guilt will diminish.

Is the Perceived Lack of Happiness Robbing You of Real Happiness?

Do you often feel life has left you short? That somehow you have been robbed of the right to be happy and content. Maybe you have financial or relationship issues in your life or you are facing chronic health problems. You look around and see happy faces everywhere you look and it can be easy to slip into a feeling that everyone but you is happy. 

 

There is no one on this earth, no matter how rich, famous or successful who does not suffer moments where they feel that life has served them a difficult basket of trials to deal with. The smiles on many people’s faces may be masks that are worn to cover up the internal pain. Other people wear smiles because they have learned to deal with their pain and problems and focus on the good and not the bad in their life.

 

There are very few people who feel that life is not difficult and the circumstances they find themselves in difficult. However, finding the blessing in life and focusing on it rather than the negative, is the key that opens the door to contentment even when things couldn’t seem to get worse. 

 

Perhaps the area that causes most problems for people is in accepting other people’s faults and making excuses for them. Every person is a unique human being and is the product of their past experiences. Very few interpersonal relationships will ever be without some level of differences of opinion. The potential for conflict is always there when people interact with each other. As we focus on the good in the other person and the benefits of our relationship with them because of the unique person they are, it helps us put a different perspective on those areas that we find difficult to appreciate. 

 

Happiness in marriage or any other close relationship, is not the absence of problems. It is maturing in our relationships to accept the differences and enjoying the differences between people and finding our happiness in those differences. Sometimes differences may be irreconcilable, but often-true happiness is not the same as perceived happiness and constantly comparing our relationships or our life with others circumstances will only serve to drag us down and not lift us up. As we learn this essential life lesson we can learn to explore and find happiness where we least expect it. 

Look at the Clouds for Inspiration

Have you ever had the pleasure of lying on your back and looking up at the sky and contemplating the clouds? They are constantly changing color, shape and size. Sometimes they are puffy and white and float around in the blue sky in dazzling whiteness. Suddenly and without warning, they appear to take on grey angry looks and become storms that can build up to an intensity that produces lightening, thunder and natures vengeance. We marvel at their beauty and their power. As quickly as the storm develops it returns to its peaceful state and the clouds once again float past without a care in the world. 

 

Our lives can be like the clouds as we learn techniques to help us deal with whatever circumstances come away. We, like the clouds can learn to adapt to the conditions around us and even to thrive in the storms of life. Our true potential can be seen not in the calm days we face, when there are few problems in our world, but in the inevitable storms of life. 

 

When we allow frustrations and problems dictate how we feel about life we will often feel defeated and hopeless. When we take the opportunity to develop resources that help us weather those storms and even to find the inner strength to overcome the storms, we can face them with a new determination to grow through them and not be defeated by them. 

 

The key to building this inner strength is to understanding that just as a thunderstorm passes, so will the difficult situations we are facing in life. Every situation we find ourselves in, will only last a few hours or a few days, maybe even as little as a few minutes. With patience and perseverance, we can ride the storm and enjoy its fruits as the earth does when a storm has ended. 

 

Perhaps you are facing a tough situation right now. It may even be the result of something that is a potential failure, the result of a poor choice or bad decision. The key is to understand that the resources to deal with the situation are within you. You can learn from your mistakes and grow from them. A baby learns to walk by falling over and standing up again. As adults sometimes we need to learn from the baby and take risks that will make us strong. 

What Makes You Feel Loved?

What things that others do for you make you feel loved? Do you like to have people give you special gifts, or to send you cards and messages that assure you that you are loved and appreciated? Maybe you are the type of person who appreciates a hug as a way of feeling loved, or really enjoy spending time with your spouse or best friend.

 

The way we give love to others is often indicative of the way we want to be loved ourselves. Most couples enjoy expressing their love to each other. However, many of us have yet to learn a golden lesson. We all give and receive love every day. Often what makes us feel loved is different to the way others give and receive it. Learning what makes our spouse or children feel loved can be the key to making even great relationships even better.

 

We all enjoy being told we are loved, but for some people, the spoken word is not enough. Telling your spouse or child you love them but never following it up with the things that make them feel loved can create feelings of confusion and concern in even the best of relationships. 

 

Keep a record of what you do for others to show them your love and note the reactions you receive to those actions. As you observe the significant people in your life and their responses to the different ways, you express love to them; you will soon see how they best “hear” you. 

 

If your wife sees help around the house as evidence of how much you love her, each time you help her you confirm to her you love her. In just one action, you will speak louder to her about your love than if you verbally assure her of your love every day. If your husband wants your physical touch, giving it to him will assure him you love him, more than any number of meals you may cook for him.

 

Learning to recognize the things that make us feel loved and then identifying what the significant people in our lives need to feel loved is a beautiful self-growth adventure that will revolutionize our relationship. It takes little time and effort to learn how to do this, yet as we learn and use this simple technique, our significant relationships can be transformed.
