I
congratulate those of you who are taking your business seriously and taking
advantage of whatever training opportunities your company offers. It is unfortunate, but the majority of
network marketers do not do so. I’m sure
that no one is surprised that those who do not attend training calls or
webinars or watch their company’s training videos rarely succeed with their
business.
Training
is important for everyone. We can never
learn too much. No matter how long you
have been with your current business or been in network marketing, you do NOT
know it all!
I host open
weekly team training calls. My calls
cover a wide array of topics pertaining to our company, our products and
network marketing in general. I have
devoted entire calls to one product, going into great detail that may not be
available on our training sites. I have hosted calls teaching how to write an
ad, how to write a blog and marketing techniques. Goal setting is a topic I cover a couple
times a year, along with ways to stay motivated.
After
three years with my company, I have covered myriad subject matters, and each
call is designed to help increase team members’ knowledge. Some people believe that they “know it all”
and don’t need training. Sorry folks,
but if your knowledge is not growing, neither is your business!
We also
learn from one another. We share our ideas
and tell others about how we benefited from using our company’s products or
service or a new marketing method. Everyone
on the calls can help everyone else. Other team members’ feedback on what we
say may lead us to learn even more.
Team calls
also help us get to know other team members better. People who attend training calls often become
friends with their team members. It is
great to have friends within your company to help you grow as a person as well as
a company representative.
Those who
try to “go it alone” often do so because they have worked with other companies
and believe they can work every business in the same way. Having worked with other network marketing
companies myself, I know that is not true.
Methods one company uses are often not effective with another company.
Anyone striving
to build a successful business must take advantage of any and all training
opportunities available to them from their company and their team.
If anyone reading this post is between companies right now or is
seeking an additional business opportunity, I invite you to dial in to my team
calls. Guests are always welcome, and
there is no obligation to join. I have
team calls every Monday and Thursday nights at 8 PM CT. If you would like to attend a call, please
contact me.
