There is probably no greater fear that network marketers have than someone asking them Ho Much Money Do You Make?
What!!!
Whether you are new to network marketing or been in the game for many years but haven’t had much success yet, there will be many times when you will be confronted with this question. I’ve learned a few different ways to respond to the How Much Money Do YOU Make question, but this one I’m going to share with you today is probably to best MLM answer I’ve come across and one I implement and teach to my team.
Everybody Starts At The Bottom.
In the span of a year I was in about 4 different MLM companies. Why? Because I just couldn’t ‘get it’ right. I was a horrible network marketer. I didn’t like to talk to anyone, I was out of my comfort zone and even though I did have some success I really didn’t know how to truly create wealth as a network marketing professional. You’ll soon come to realize that the majority of successful network marketers SUCKED …they started at the bottom but didn’t quit and worked their way up, including myself.
So…What If You Have Not Made Much Money Yet?
When I first started in network marketing I think the very first check I got was like $12. Not anything to really get excited about right!
Now, if someone asked me the question, “Well, Andrea, How much money did you earn your first month?” and I had to respond with the answer, “Well I’ve only made $12.” — that could kill your recruiting! (and actually I did tell someone that and he laughed at me…LOUD!)
I was so embarrassed and quite frankly my feelings were hurt. I immediately got on the Internet and started looking for ways to respond to people who asked me how much money I’ve made in my network marketing business. I came across a discussion on the BetterNetworker Forum, where someone was asking “How much money did you earn your first month?” – this is what he says:
“I wish I knew. I’m still building my fortune. You see, the beauty of network marketing is that you continue to get paid residual income in this business. I’m still earning money off the efforts from my very first month in business!”
How freakin GENIUS is that? So how can you actually build on this statement as you grow your income in this business. Here’s my personal example…As I got better at sponsoring more people and started to build upon my income, I was able to explain that while my income was very little when I first got started, me and my team got busy and I was soon making well over $500 a month which turned into $500 a week when eventually turned in to $500 a day!
Don’t Ever Let Anyone Kill Your Dream Because You Haven’t Made It Yet!
Look whether it takes you a few months or a few years to ‘make it’ in network marketing, don’t let anyone kill your dream of becoming the winning networker you what to be. People will ask you all kinds of questions, they’ll challenge you, they’ll laugh in your face, they’ll tell you’re nuts. People will ask you questions that they wouldn’t even think about asking anyone else. WHY? Because you are trying to get them to do join YOU in business.Would they question a lawyer or ask a lawyer how much they make…Probably not, but you have to realize that lawyers are also not recruiting people to join them in business either (unless they are network marketers too!! LOL!).
So don’t be discouraged, just know that you’ll get there one day if you continue to work hard, continue to invest in yourself, continue to develop your skills and continue to find ways to WIN in your business.
The truth of the matter is that everyone starts at the bottom, so don’t ever let anyone kill your dream on your journey to the top.
