Beginning the Work with Improper Expectations
What are your expectations? What are your goals? It is reasonable to have
goals. It is also important that you plan. However, there are certain
expectations that can make you give up before you truly start.
Write out your goals. This will help you see what you want from your
business endeavor. Do these goals align with the benefits? If so, then you are
on track, but you still need realistic expectations.
Benefits and goals are a good place to start and assess what the business can
do for you. As you examine companies—ask yourself—does the company
have the same goals as you? Do they provide a quality product you know you
can sell? Are there any benefits or goals you cannot meet with the companies
that are top on your list?
Companies are not going to provide you with every benefit. Sometimes they
cannot, but if you can find a company that fits most of the benefits and goals
you have, it is possible to be happy. It is like any job or career you choose,
there are downsides. As long as you know what those downsides are, you can
have realistic expectations.
The main area that many people fall short of when assessing a company and
determining their goals is the income, they can generate with the network
marketing company they have chosen.
A lot of companies try to bring you in by promising the top sales projections.
But you have to understand the effort and time it takes for you to reach those
goals. It is not an easy process. It does not happen overnight. You may find
that you cannot reach the top sales goals, and possibly there will not be
enough income generated from the company for other reasons.
The internet breeds half-truths and incorrect information. Some companies
also want you to be extremely excited, so you will sign up to be a network
marketer. They share with you all the success stories of getting a brand-new
car worth $20,000, their salespeople making $50,000 per year, and neglect to
tell you that is 1% of the marketers in the company. Most of their members
never reaches the new car or more than $10,000 per year, if that much.
Only the effort you are willing to put into network marketing will determine
