Mentoring in Network Marketing

I love what I’m doing, I’m a leader, passionate about helping you reach your business goals. Nothing in business gives me greater joy than knowing I helped someone reach their financial goals

As a mentor in my online network marketing community, I help others learn to do their tasks more efficiently and effectively. What you may ask is the difference between mentoring and coaching? Mentoring is “relational,” while coaching is “functional,” so I guess I do both. Developing that relationship allows the mentor to encourage and uplift the mentee as well as coaching which would be giving specific directions to the member needing to complete a specific task. Good mentoring requires permission on the part of both people.

This is a new concept in Network Marketing. In the old school of Network Marketing, each individual was responsible for completing all the required tasks: buying or attracting leads, contacting the lead, converting the lead to an associate, training the new associate, and on and on. A new concept has been developed that encourages the strengths of each member of the community. In the community, one person may call new leads, another may close that lead, another does training for specific tasks, another mentoring to encourage the new associate, another does computer geek tasks. All these members are working for the good of the community so that NOONE can fail. That is definitely a new concept in Network Marketing as 90% of new recruits in traditional Network Marketing businesses quit after a very short time. The same would be true in online affiliate marketing although that would be easier to accomplish by oneself.

If you understand the benefits of residual income from Network Marketing but have never understood how to make it work, take a look at this now. If you’re like I was or just starting out please don’t go it alone if you’re alone, chances are you’ll fail. It’s almost guaranteed. Follow the advise of any networking company out there and you have a 98% chance of failure.
