Top 10 Variables to Success in MLM/Home-based Businesses: Education/Experience
by ohana network · Filed Under: Network Marketing and MLM
Hey Everyone,
Today I want to talk about the seventh variable on my list when it comes to success in MLM/Home based businesses: education and experience.
Allow me share my own experience. When I first started out in network marketing, I knew nothing about how to make money in the MLM industry. I had heard of Amway back in the day but that was about it. Along with my excitement about my new opportunity came anxiety. I knew that I had alot to learn and wanted to learn everything right away. I bought all the books that were available, signed up for all the training classes, etc., etc. What ended up happening was I developed what is called “analysis paralysis”. I had acquired all this learned knowledge but yet none of it really helped me make any money.
What am I trying to say here? Is education of little importance? No, education is very important. Anyone looking to have success in this industry must commit to learning, continuous learning. But perhaps what’s even more important is that there is a difference between “learned knowledge” and “activity knowledge”. All the education in the world won’t make a person wealthy. We’ve all heard the saying that “knowledge is power”. Well that’s only true if you USE that knowledge. That’s what happened to me. I believed that if I knew enough about MLM/network marketing and my business then I would make money. That didn’t happen. I needed activity. I had business partners who hadn’t read the books I read or gone to all the training I had gone to but were making money. They went out and got the experience necessary to succeed. Experience comes with time, patience, trial and error. I am not saying that education is not important, it is. But experience combined with knowledge will lead a person to more success and money than either of these two things alone.
If you’re new to the industry and have committed to acquiring knowledge about the MLM/network marketing industry, good for you. Just remember that nothing will take the place of activity which will give you the experience necessary for success.
For those of you who are very active and like to get yourself and your opportunity in front of people, take the time to educate yourself about your business, your product, your service, the industry and most importantly, yourself. Constant activity is great but make sure that you have the knowledge to know that you’re doing the right activities and moving in the right direction.
