Our Minds Attract People—or Repel Them

By Josephine Gross, Ph.D. 

I’ve often wondered how it is possible for anyone to be lonely a world with over six billion people. Yet loneliness is a major cause of depression and stress in our modern society. 

Similarly, we could question how networkers can feel like they’ve run out of prospects in a world with six billion people, of whom only a fraction are already involved in network marketing.

 We are all surrounded by the same prospects, every day, wherever we go. Why do some of us attract people while others, well, sort of repel people?

Power of Asking Indirect Questions

By: Michael Oliver  

 

Sometimes asking a direct question will get you a short answer that won’t give you much to work with or it takes time to expand on.

 So here’s a way to power up your questioning skills and get deeper and more meaningful answers... Turn some of your direct questions into Indirect Questions.  Doing so will take you into a zone beyond the factual, who, what, why, where, when and how!

You've Got to Believe It to See It!

By: Rod Nichols

One of the main reasons I believe people fail in network marketing is that they don't believe. They don't believe in the industry and in many cases are embarrassed about being involved in network marketing. This lack of belief insures their eventual failure. So, how is your belief level? Let's take a little test:
1. When you are working your business, do you ever feel like you're doing something that's not quite above board?
2. Do you ever beat around the bush, when someone asks you about your business?
3. Have you ever felt uncomfortable contacting someone because of what they might think?
4. Have you ever hidden the fact that you are involved in network marketing?
5. Do you ever think that maybe you aren't right for network marketing or that it isn't right for you?
If you said yes to any of these questions, then you need to work on your belief level in order to become successful.

What is Direct selling?

Direct selling is a dynamic, vibrant, rapidly expanding channel of distribution for the marketing of products and services directly to consumers. In today’s world, products and services are mainly sold through enormous marketing and advertising after passing certain channels of distribution. This method involves high costs which the costumers need to cover later in the form of high-prices. 
However, Direct Selling is the sale of a consumer product or service, person- to-person, away from a fixed retail location.
