"The 4 key ingredients in a great leader"
1. Credibility/Trust is undoubtedly one of the most key factors in a great leader. Your team needs to be so sure that you are going to do what you say. I never tell anyone that they will make a ton of money working with me... Be honest, do you know their work ethic? Have they ever been successful in something before? Are they willing to do what is needed? The answer is you don't know! The first thing I tell everyone that I am presenting my business to is "I don't know if your going to make any money here", I have people who are, but I can't promise you anything. That statement puts more people at ease then anything else I say! They trust me, are they trusting you?
2. Competence, not just for the short term but for the long term. Are you able to continue to move your team forward? What's your track record, is it a winning one? Are you able to teach to teach to teach.... Can you adapt to massive change and can you help you team adapt as well!
3. Vision, can you create the dream, the vision that forces the creation of future. Think about it, "A man without a vision will perish". Imagine your downline creating a future, this will drive you to lead faster! Bring the companies owners vision to your group, but do not depend on the owner to lead your team. Be a 360 degree leader, read the book by John Maxwell... A leader needs to be the evangelist of vision! You must know your team to grow your team!
4. Inspiration, is not enough to have a vision and dream to be an effective leader. You must effectively communicate the vision in ways to encourage your team to stay with you for the long run. Most people need to know their calling, you must help them find that calling. Support and encourage your team, recognize them it is the vehicle to their soul! One last thing RESPECT them, if you don't they will leave you!
Until next time my friends.... Lead well!

Network Marketing and the Secrets to Sucess
Timing is prefect for this blog, January 2011, WOW! Many of us will spend the first month of the year "GETTING READY" to make some changes in our network marketing business or our lives for 2011... I thought it would be appropriate to blog about the "Secrets to Success" not only for a network marketing business owner but also for the masses. These principles can be used for any business, personal, spiritual and relationships.
Let's get started! The first two things that we must do are in Network Marketing or any business are:
1. Begin, 90% of all failure is not beginning, pretty simple huh! However, it's the hardest part of change.
2. Never Quit, 90 % of all failure is quitting, again sounds simple, however it's not!
Let's focus on "BEGINNING" first, you must do these FIVE principles to have a successful network marketing business.
Reason #1 Beginning
Beginning starts with you! The top reasons to start with yourself are pretty simple.
a. Get experience, whether it's making cold calls, showing your business opportunity, whether it's going to the gym. The more you do it, the more experience you get!
b. More Confidence, pretty simple, the more you do the better you become. "Become a Human Becoming instead of just a Human Being!
c. Integrity, pretty important don't you agree? In network marketing or anything business, relationship and etc this is without a doubt the most important of all!
d. Influence, more confidence you get, the more leadership skill you develop the more integrity you show to others the more people become interested in you!
"Why start with you first"?
Your with yourself more then anyone else, so if you don't work on mentoring yourself, others will not have confidence in you.
You need to FEED yourself before you can FEED others, of course I'm not talking about a juicy steak dinner! You need to learn first, the speed of your network marketing group is the speed of you! Remember, "what parents do in moderation, children(your team) will do in excess".
Reason #2 Begin Early
1. By beginning early you increase your odds for success in your network marketing business.
2. You compound your success, just like compounding interest. When you start you have more activity hence creating massive action.
3. You have more options later. An example, in January if you business is not going as planned you're able to make adjustments. However if you start in June, you time is shorten for adjustments hence creating unnecessary frustration.
Reason#3 Begin Small "The Big deal is the little deal, think about how many times your new distributor in your network marketing business comes to you and says. "I know the owner of XYZ and if they see this it will be huge", so if I get in I can just sit back and reap the rewards. Sound familiar?
1. Starting small encourages you to begin... think about it! If you start to big, subconsciously it will appear unattainable and then you QUIT.
2. Allows you to prioritize and concentrate
3. Provides the necessary steps to keep focused, keep you on track!
4. Begin with the end in clear view. If your beginning is so large it's difficult to see the end view clearly.
Reason #4 Begin with the end in view
1. It's helps you get started right
2. Keeps you going right
3. And simply put, gets you where you need to be!
Reason #5 Begin NOW
1. If you begin now you remove procrastination. The greatest gap in Network marketing and in life is "knowing and doing".
Keep this is mind: Many times success comes from doing boring things, for example presenting your network marketing business plan over and over and over again. Pretty boring huh? Remember this, my mentor and coach Susan Walsh always says, " SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE GET REAL GOOD AT THINGS THAT ARE BORING" Think about it, what happens when we get board? We try to do something else, perhaps change some systems that have been created by your top network marketing leader. Ever done that? Or maybe jump from one company to the next because your board. It's doesn't work my friends!
Here is something powerful that I say everyday and I bet if you do the same you will have success in whatever it is you're pursuing. Whether it be a network marketing business, a personal relationship or your job. Ready?
"I WILL DO TODAY WHAT OTHERS WON'T (WILL NOT) SO I CAN LIVE TOMORROW LIKE OTHER DON'T (DO NOT).....
Until next time! Be Well Phyllis
