Focus People, Focus!


I know a number of people who have their hands in several network marketing businesses and none of them are going anywhere.  They dabble in all of them, but can’t seem to get them to produce the income they desire. 

We read about multiple streams of income and are not clear about what that really means.  So we sign up of 3-4 or more businesses and wonder why they crash and burn.

Let me explain it this way.  Let’s say an airline pilot has a destination for New York, Los Angeles, Miami, and Cincinnati all at the same time!  Is that possible?  No it is not!  The pilot has to focus on one destination at a time or the poor guy will run out of fuel and crash the plane because of the confusion that his concept has brought upon him.  This is the same with you trying to run several home based businesses at the same time.  It is paramount that you pick a good 5-pillar company and focus until your eyes cross!

I belong to such a company.  We carry several products.  Some products are diet products, others are for diabetics, and several others for general well being.  I am focusing on one business, but I have several products for literally every age group and health need.  Thus I have multiple streams of income with just one company and one focus.  What a relief that I don’t have to go nuts trying to keep track of multiple businesses, pay plans, policies and procedures, etc.  I can focus on one thing and thus increase my chances of success.

Lack of focus is one of the main reasons that so many people fail.  Therefore I urge you to pick a solid 5-pillar company and focus until you finally achieve the success that you desire.  By doing so you will greatly increase your chance of success.  Resist the temptation to be come a MLM FROG, jumping from one thing to another.  Focus!

Focus is Key to Build Success in Network Marketing

I think one of the main problems I see in the network marketing community is focus.  I also think that this is on of the primary reasons for failure in our industry.  97% of network marketers never see their dreams become a reality; partly because of focus.

One of the buzzwords or phrases in network marketing is "multiple streams of income."  This is interpreted as getting into several "opportunities" and try to get income from all of them.  To me, this is nuts!  Until you MASTER one business it is unwise to do another.  I believe razor-sharp focus is paramount for all beginning network marketers.  Master one business; do it well and amass your fortune.  Take the money from your network marketing earnings and invest in real estate and stocks.  Your investments will produce the multiple streams of income you seek.

Don't fall into the trap of scattering your energy.  Find a good 5-pillar company and focus on building that your organization until you become an expert.  Then and only then should you consider doing something else.

Also, by being involved with multiple "opportunities" your are giving the wrong impression to others.  You are telling people that you are flighty and can't be relied upon.  People join people.  they join people they can trust.  People like stability.  Don't be a jumper (going from business to business) and don't have your hands in too many things.  Your multi-tasking is NOT duplicatable.  If what you do cannot by duplicated by ANYONE; don't do it.

The primary question people have on there mind when considering joining a business is: "Can I do this and will you help me?"  If you are scattered in your focus you will not be able to help anyone.

Therefore, my advice to you is to stop the madness and focus.  When you focus; watch your business grow.
