"Achieving Success in Network Marketing Through Your Single Daily Actions"
By Dr. Joe Rubino

Good organization is essential to success in any endeavor. This is especially true for new network marketing distributors. Let's take a look at what you will need to organize on a daily basis to guarantee your success.

1. Prospecting

Looking at the concept of success ratios, how many people would you need to prospect on a daily basis to be on track to achieve your goals for a given month?

Let's say your goal was to find one future leader this month.

If you worked Monday through Friday, or 20 days in the month, and suppose you needed to speak with 200 people in order to identify 1 MLM leader, you would need to prospect 10 people each day to stay on track. Your single daily action here would include 10 prospecting conversations each and every working day.

To ground your goal in your ability to do the actions needed to accomplish the result, you would need to either commit the time and effort required to carry out these 10 conversations daily OR expand your time limit for reaching your goal. You would also need to know sources for 200 names. This is the first step in grounding your actions in realistic relationship to your goals.

The number of people someone would need to prospect to identify one leader varies greatly from person to person. Developing your communication skills and effectiveness will lower the number of prospecting conversations you need to have to obtain the same result.

2. Sorting

I define a "sorting" conversation as a quality conversation that is the next step and the natural result of successful prospecting. Sorting includes the process of trying the products and reviewing materials to determine if a prospect is interested in becoming a retail customer, a wholesale customer and/or taking a look at the business opportunity to see if it fits their "why."

We'll do more about sorting later, as well. For now, let's determine how many sorting conversations you will need to have daily to be on track for your monthly goal.

Based on your historical overall ratios, let's say you determine that you need four sorting conversations each day to reach your goals-your single daily actions would need to include those as well.

3. Follow-up Conversations

After you've had a quality sorting conversation to explore the possibilities of your products or business opportunity, your prospects will most likely need to try products, watch a video, listen to an audio tape or read some literature on your company, products or opportunity. Each of those activities will take time, so you will have to follow up with a third conversation.

You'll need to calculate how many of these follow-up conversations you need to keep the flow going with your prospects as they explore what you're offering. Include the required number of follow-up conversations in your single daily actions, too.

4. Miscellaneous Activity

This category includes all other actions which occur daily as needed to ensure your success.

Included here are the number of sorting packages you will need to send out to prospects, the training or coaching you'll take part in with your upline and downline, reading of company literature or books on network marketing, watching video tapes, bookkeeping, listening to audio tapes, conference calls, etc. In other words, anything else that would support your business-building activities. Set aside a specific number of hours each day for these activities and include them in your single daily actions.

So, ... Given that you need to prospect 200 people to identify one leader and you prospect 20 days per month:

If you:	You will:
Prospect 10 per day	Identify 1 leader per month.
Prospect 5 per day	Identify 1 leader in 2 months.
Prospect 1 per day	Identify 1 leader in 10 months

   

Your Single Daily Actions will include:

Prospect X people per day

Send out X sorting packages per day

Follow up with X prospects per day

X time for miscellaneous activities per day
