Chapter 3. Mindset
As with any business, having your mind set for success is the best way to
actually create success in your business. If you ever take a moment to notice
the difference between thriving network marketers and failing network
marketers, there are usually some noticeable differences. Those who are
thriving tend to be enthusiastic, positive and excited about what they are
doing. On the other hand, those who are not thriving are generally less
excited about their products and pushier and more desperate about their sales.
We will focus on how to get in the mindset of success, and what mentality to
avoid in order to prevent yourself from scaring away potential customers and
team members!
Embrace Criticism
There are literally hundreds if not thousands of people who believe network
marketing is a sham and that you will never succeed at it. Then, there are
hundreds if not thousands who are succeeding and doing incredible in their
businesses. The people who believe marketing is a sham are the ones who
will be dishing out criticism, calling you names for becoming a part of said
business, and saying other negative things about what you are doing. The
ones who succeed are the ones who learn to ignore the negative remarks,
embrace the criticism, and continue down their path anyway. If you let the
criticism and negativity get to you, you will certainly have no chance of
success because you will quit before you ever see it through.
Rejection Happens
Rejection is a thing in every sales business. Whether you work for a company
that has a store front, or you work for a telemarketing company, or you work
for a network marketing company, you are going to have rejection. You need
to understand that rejection happens and that it should not stop you from
going forward with your business. Stay enthusiastic and you will find your
target audience who wants your products. The more positive and optimistic
you are the more people will be attracted to you for your products. Don’t
spend your time trying to change the mind of those who aren’t interested.
