There is a New Economy Emerging
The U.S. economy is changing. We are seeing a collapse of the old system and an emerging new system. Actually, it’s not a new system, it’s the foundational system of our country - entrepreneurship. The U.S. was founded on small business. People providing products and services to others for a profit. We’ve gotten away from that in the last decade and now we are paying the price for that mistake.
The good news is that small business can once again fuel the U.S.’s success. The new economy is a small business economy. Not the giant conglomerates that have controlled our economy for years - they are collapsing. We will go back to ingenuity and creativity. People will launch businesses from a bedroom in their home or the garage or basement. They will offer products and services that are superior to those offered by foreign countries. They will grow and employ others and contribute to the growth of our economy.
The question is, will you stay in the old failing economy, by working for someone else - a company that will likely fail at some point in the future or will you join the new economy and start you own business?
What type of business could you start? Well, think about what you love to do - is there some way you could turn that into a business? What are you talented at? Could you turn that into a business? Have you ever had an idea for a product or service? Take the risk and do it.
If none of those are true, you can join the 15 million others who are part of the network marketing industry. For a small investment, you can start a turn-key business that doesn’t require any previous experience. Anyone can do it and people from all walks of life, all age groups, both genders, and every ethnic group have enjoyed tremendous success in network marketing. In fact, many have become millionaires through this industry.
Haven’t ever heard of network marketing? Well, it’s nothing more than what all of us do naturally. We find products and services we like and tell others about them. It’s called word of mouth marketing. In the past, we never got paid for recommending movies, television shows, books, CD’s, cell phones, and restaurants. Today, we can refer great products and services and get paid to do it. In fact, we can get paid very handsomely.
Now, here’s the good news. Network marketing is recession-proof. In fact it’s one of the few industries that tends to thrive during down economic times. So, the next step is yours. Start a business based on what you love, your talents, or an idea you’ve had or jump into the network marketing industry with the rest of us. Come join the new economy and join those of us who are prospering in this down economy.

Motivating Your Downline
Do you have people in your downline who have the potential, but aren't doing anything? Unless you have no one in your downline, the answer is YES! This has been the eternal struggle in network marketing. All of us face this problem on a daily basis. So, how do we motivate these people?
First, you can't motivate anyone through words alone. You can get them excited, but only they can motivate themselves. They must have a good reason or purpose for their business, then be willing to go out an do whatever is necessary to accomplish that purpose.
Second, people are not all motivated in the same way. Some get very excited about the big money potential in network marketing. Others like the idea of earning an extra couple hundred dollars a month. Many are looking for more time freedom and less stress. It is important to find out what your distributors want, so you can provide them with the most appropriate stimulation.
Here are some ideas for keeping your downline motivated:
1. Within 48 hours of the time the sign up, help them develop a solid purpose, set of goals based on that purpose, and a schedule of activities for the first 30 days. This will give them direction and kick them into action immediately.
2. Provide a proven marketing system that anyone can do. One that has worked well is to help your new distributors make up a list of 30 people. Mail or email an information packet to the first 10 and then do 3-way follow-up calls. This gives your new distributors the opportunity to learn by listening to an upline leader and also the chance that some of these people might be interested in either the products/services or business.
3. Keep them active by providing marketing programs such as post card mailings, telemarketing, conference calls, business teleconferences and webinars that they can direct prospects to, lead programs, etc. On-going marketing keeps them actively prospecting and then provides a program they can pass on to their new distributors to keep them active.
4. Prepare them for battle - let them know that there will be tough times and mean people. Family members and friends will be rude to them at times, because they don't understand the business. Prepare them for the down times. Building a network marketing business (like any other business) is like a roller coaster - there will be highs and lows. Let them know that when they are excited and up, they should call their downline and spread that enthusiasm. When they are depressed and down,they should call their upline for empathy.
5. Recognition is one of the best motivators. Constantly recognize your distributors for what they are doing. If they make their first contact, let them know what an AWESOME job they are doing. When they make their first retail sale or recruit their first person, announce it to the world. As they achieve higher levels,give them the recognition they deserve.
6. Stay in touch with them regularly. Get to know them and build a relationship. In the beginning, when you only have a couple distributors, this is easy. As your network grows, it becomes more difficult. Contact your new distributors daily for the first 30 days (whenever possible). Others, you should contact at least once a month. Some great ways to leverage your time are the use of e-mail broadcast, voice mail broadcast, teleconferences and webinars. Each allows you to reach groups of distributors with exciting new information, without a tremendous time investment.
The key to keeping your downline motivated is to show them you care about them. Stay focused on their purpose and goals. Work with them regularly to achieve those goals and you will achieve yours too!
