Guest article by Brian J Williams

I would like to discuss a few of the most common and challenging problems in network marketing, lack of automated recruiting systems, weak training, poor follow-up methods and no motivation.

How do you keep your down line motivated and stop the revolving door of attrition?

The last thing you want is an uninspired, lacking motivation, and frankly a lazy MLM down line.

You must learn how to drive your down line, since everyone’s success depends on personal production, it is vital that you learn how to keep your team motivated.

Remember your team depends on you to teach them how to duplicate success. This is the key to success in MLM A successful downline wants the big bucks as much as you do; Your downline will not continue to work hard, if they don’t have quick and visible success.

So, in large part, training and motivating your representatives rests on you first. However when you are starting you obviously are learning yourself, so that is where a strong up line team and support are so important. This means giving them real skills from you or your up line mentors that are measurable, predictable, and reliable.

What type of skills do they need for success in MLM? It depends on their skill set.

Here are 3 key areas and tips to beam in on to fold the corners of your network marketing downline to keep the newbies from falling over the edge:

1. The first things you should do is a game plan interview to find out their biggest challenges, goals and strengths. Some of them may be totally new to MLM.

In response, give them a step by step guide for lead generation to suit there follow-up method strengths and an expected conversion ratio. Those are the most important elements in marketing any network marketing company.

2. The biggest reason why new network marketers are uninspired is because they don’t know how to get started and they become frustrated. You will want to instruct them on what to do and most importantly walk the walk.

There should be training material available from your MLM company that will cover motivation and down line management. If your company does not provide this then contact your up line for support. If in the rare case you receive no up line support you may want to consider another company! You are welcome to contact me and I will offer you some guidance on motivating and building your down line.

Include training calls ending with an open Q and A segment.

3. You must show them how to execute effectively. This is very critical for duplicating great results. After listening to your training calls, a good portion of your group should be getting great results, and be very excited to be in the company.

Be sure not to let them rest on their laurels. Don’t let them settle for 1 or 2 sales per month when they could easily make 20 or more. Since some people’s competitive levels are lower than others, a great way to combat this tendency is to appeal to their ego.

Remember rewards and recognition are great motivation. If a video-email communication has been established for your network marketing down line, you can offer up a little public praise by featuring video down line success stories in a monthly newsletter. If you do not have a video email system in place get one. This is the most critical tool in your down line management and recruiting systems.

You might even want to find a way to reward them with purchased gift. For example, you could purchase a tool that will help them in their lead generating program or self development course, for example and give it away free to the most productive down line member.

There are no limits to the possibilities and remember always treat your team like you would like to be treated, along with keeping them motivated. Let them know that you care about their success as much as your own, and show it by always being accessible and helping them. Follow these 3 simple yet powerful tips and watch your business grow.
