One of the biggest challenges in the Network Marketing Profession is not only getting people to join your organization, but also keeping them there. Many people leave for various reasons, such as unmet expectations or fear of rejection. However, as a leader, it is your responsibility to improve retention and reduce the number of people who quit.
The Concept of "Over the Line"
To address this issue, I have developed a concept called "Over the Line." In every person's mind, there is a line that separates the ease of quitting from the ease of staying. The key to keeping people in your business is to get them to cross that line and make it easier for them to stay.
One of the reasons why Network Marketing is prone to high turnover is because it requires minimal financial investment to start. This makes it easy for people to quit without much consequence.
Building Confidence and Focus
Here are some strategies to build your team's confidence and keep them focused on their dreams, making it easier for them to stay:
- Encourage them to share their new profession with the world: When people publicly announce their commitment, it creates accountability.
- Build relationships and introduce them to others: Forming connections and support networks within your organization helps individuals feel supported.
- Get them excited about the product: If they see results and are enthusiastic, they will naturally generate excitement in others.
- Help them achieve small wins: Even earning just $1, getting one customer, or advancing in rank can be incredibly encouraging.
- Bring them to events: Exposing them to training and showcasing the path to success will boost their confidence in themselves and the profession.
By being aware of "the line" and consistently implementing these tactics, you can improve retention and create a stronger, more committed team. These strategies have helped me throughout my career, and they can help you too.
