Don’t Motivate the Masses, Motivate the Leaders

Author: Brent Copstead

The toughest issue with building a business in Network Marketing is keeping your entire team motivated. In the beginning, people sign up and are very excited to be involved with the business and have brought up dreams of wealth and prosperity that the real world of life has beat down over the years. So when you have a team, it is important, actually EXTREMELLY IMPORTANT and vital to your success to keep them motivated. But don’t do this all on your own, focus on your Team Leaders and motivate them to motivate their leaders.

I have seen this in many of the MLM Companies that I have been involved with, is lack of motivation in teams which will always turn into a cancelation of their membership. There is a reason why MLM has such a low retention rate. It’s because people join and expect others to do everything for them, or when they try to do it themselves, they just don’t have the tools to succeed. People need to be motivated and mentored.

You are the CEO – Who are your Managers?

As you may already know, in your team you have people called business builders. They are the ones who go out and recruit many, and it is huge to get a business builder in your team. But what about all of the other members you have? Why aren’t they building their business or where are they? It’s very simple, they just got lost in the team.

You have to think of your business like a corporate structure. You are the CEO, then below you are the regional managers, then managers, then supervisors, then workers. The CEO doesn’t look over everyone, just his key leaders. So treat your business like a real business (which it is), and you will see a big difference.

The key is very simple. In most Network Marketing companies, the goal is to find a key number of people and build under them. This number is usually around 6. So even if you have 200 people in your team, your main focus should be those 6 direct people. You should have weekly phone calls with them and they should become your best friends. Remember, they are your business partners. Keep them motivated, provide them leadership, and teach them to do the same.

This will turn out to be so much easier then trying to motivate everyone on such a large scale. Keeping it simple and targeted will grow your business much faster and keep the retention rate much higher. Focus on your 6, and make sure that they are focusing on their 6.

“You will never find peace of mind by allowing other people to live your life for you”- Napoleon Hill

Royal Cruise Matrix is a business that can help just about anyone achieve financial freedom.  But there is only one person in this world that can determine your success. This same person can just as easily walk you down the path of destruction incrementally day by day. Of course, this one person is YOU. You are in the driver’s seat of your life. Mapping out your future journey will ensure you reach your destination.

We’ve all heard the stories of people who turn their struggles into a success story. Certain people just don’t take “no” for an answer and continue to persevere until they conquer. These same people seem to thrive when life throws them curve balls. Olympians, top athletes, and famous actors usually fit this role of tenacity. They don’t act this way because they are elite, they are elite because they act this way.

The simple fact is that these people don’t have anything special about them. They weren’t born with anything different than you. The world’s elite stand out simply because they take action and have a solid belief in themselves. Any temporary stumbling blocks become stepping stones.

What are your stumbling blocks? Are they financial? Mental? Are they stumbling blocks that you’ve created or that others have placed before you? And what are you going to do about them?

Write down the 5 biggest stumbling blocks that are between you and your dreams.

Let’s pretend for a minute that I am going to write you a check for $1 million. In order to cash this check, you must first resolve these 5 stumbling blocks. What action would you take today to ensure these stumbling blocks became solid stepping stones toward that $1 million?

“When the ties that bind a human mind are broken and a man is introduced to himself- the real self that has no limitations- I fancy that the gates of hell shake with fear and the bells of heaven ring with joy!”

If you are serious about growing your Royal Cruise Matrix business, you need to prospect on a regular basis.  You need to generate prospects, show them your business, follow up with them and enroll them. There is no news here. What I will share with you below are the best ways I have found that you can really grow your Royal Cruise Matrix Team. These are tips that I successfully use all the time, and they will work for you as well.

1. Get involved with a Team that will HELP YOU! — If you are looking for a good team that you can join RCM under, there are just a few things that differentiate the best teams and sponsors from the rest. The key is how much assistance you will get from your team. I do not mean spillover. I mean teaching and training you how to prospect and share the business successfully. I also recommend a team that has some type of regular meetings to share marketing tactics that are working. You need to be part of a team to see massive success online. You want to make sure you are joining a group of people that will actually assist you in growing your business.

2. Send Traffic To A RCM Specific Marketing System — If you are going to market Royal Cruise Matrix on a regular basis, you are going to want to make sure you are capturing the information on your prospects. This is absolutely critical to your success. You can not send traffic directly to a company provided affiliate site and expect to get much of any results. People will glance at your site and then leave about 98 per cent of the time. If you are not capturing their information, you can not follow up with them. This is a huge mistake that a lot of people make in online programs. You want to make your marketing system as specific to your program as possible. This shows your prospects you are committed to your program and are a marketing professional.

3. Get To Know Your Prospects — This is another area that people just overlook or avoid on purpose. This is a big mistake. You want to get to know your prospect and find out what their needs are. If your program is not going to provide a solution to a problem for your prospects, their are not going to join your program. If you pick up the phone and actually talk to your prospects, you will stand out in the crowd. You will show your prospects that you are there to help them. This one action alone will improve your enrollment rate dramatically.

4. Show Your Prospects How You Will Help Them — When you are talking to your prospects, you need to let them know how you are going to help them. You need to let them know what you are going to do to assist them in succeeding in your program. You need to be able to articulate this in a simple and powerful way. This will make you attractive as a sponsor, and will allow you to grow your team in a consistent way. You know some things that your prospect doesn’t. No person knows everything. Focus on what you can do to help a person succeed, and they will be much more likely to work with you.

5. Actually Help Your Team Membersr — This is a huge point that should never be forgotten. When you commit to helping a person when they join your team, you must follow through on what you have said you will do. You must take the first step in reaching out to help your new “business associate”. If you get your new associate started down the path to success in Royal Cruise Matrix right away, they will see you are a person of integrity and are sincerely interested in helping them. Make sure you are willing to reach out to your new team members, especially at the beginning. You never know when you will find that special person that will become a long term contributor to your team.

These items are all pretty simple and are within your control. You will find that providing this personal service to your prospects will really make a positive difference in your prospecting and business building.

If you’ve ever read “Secrets of a Millionaire Mind” by T. Harv Eker, this post might sound a bit familiar. In his book, he discusses some common differences between rich people and poor people.

Now it’s important for me to repeat his message that rich people are not “better” than poor people. But if you strive to Have It All in life, you need to model behaviors of those who have gone before you.

One secret that I found espessially useful is: “Rich People Think Both, Poor People Think Either/Or“. Limited thinking and coming from a place of scarcity will prohibit you from reaching your fullest potential. Why should you have to choose between one desire and another? Rich people who believe in absolute abundance realize that you don’t need to choose. Life offers us everything we desire as long as we are open to it.

Do you think that you have to choose between being happy and being rich? Do you work a job you hate because doing what you love won’t pay the bills? This way of thinking closes off the possibility that you can have them both. But the truth is that you CAN have them both.

I’ve chosen network marketing as my business model because it’s so easy to duplicate. So I associate with hundreds of networkers personally or online almost daily. As I grow my portfolio of business opportunities, I get several inquires about my strategy (offering numerous business opportunities). Certain people think they have to choose between one opportunity or another. They think “either/or”. But the big thinkers understand that just because they are involved in one premier, long-term business doesn’t mean that they can’t have something else to offer. They think “both”.

Royal Cruise Matrix is an opportunity that almost anyone can be successful at. Which is why it is one of my businesses of choice. The entry cost is extremely low, there are no monthly fees that can start to add up, and the payouts happen quickly, and the compensation is easy to understand. And most importantly, other network marketers who already love their premier opportunity can quickly increase their bottom line by duplicating the process that is already familiar to them.
