Bonjour and welcome to the MLM Trigger, I am your host Corine Arnaud and this PODCAST is to help you LEVERAGE Your Network Marketing Skills using the internet to grow your MLM downline.
We are going to dive into [Your Exact Business Formula] and we'll talk about how can you set-up your business that works for you?
There is a multitude of different ways to build a business, and as an entrepreneur, you may be seduced into the way of growing a business that may not feel aligned with your core beliefs and personality. Is like in MLM we are given “one fit all strategy” If the thoughts of cold calling strangers and hard-selling until the person pulls out their credit card, fills you with anxiety remember... there’s more than one way to build a successful business.
Choose a business-building strategy that resonates with you that will allow you to succeed in the most productive and healthiest way. There are a lot of different things that work for different people. If you look at the people who are the most successful, they all have figured out what works for them. Some of us like to work in silence & quiet. Others, like noise and a lot of activity around them. They find a way to work there. Some people like plenty of time to work toward a deadline. Others, don’t like that. They want to work right up against a deadline. They like the adrenaline. They like the intensity of the sprint to the end. That works for them and they feel they are the most productive.
The key to this is finding what you actually like to do instead of following a strategy that promises $10K in 30 days but you’re freaking out through the whole process. If you hate FB lives, don’t do them. Yes, there is enormous hype that FB lives will blow up your business.
The same is for email marketing. So is podcasting, blogs, You Tube, Instagram. Entrepreneurs have built successful businesses using each one of these strategies. But bottom line is to master one medium by being consistent, getting really proficient, learning from your mistakes and fine-tune your message. Then watch your business grow. If there is something you are struggling with when you’re building a business that you are aligned with, be prepared to learn from your mistakes.
It’s a journey that we all go through, and each of our paths is very unique. Don’t fall for comparison for whatever you do, don’t switch strategy just because you saw it works for someone else. Everybody has to look within themselves. The reason that they became successful is that they found an approach that resonated with them and remained consistent with it until they got results.
What is appropriate to expect from yourself? At what point do you say, “I am who I am" and that part of me is not going to change. When YOU CAN accept yourself and expect more from yourself you will found that approach that resonates with you.
Kind of like… maybe you feel really uncomfortable speaking in public, like myself but that is something I ask myself every day I am going to get better at it and I will remained consistent no matter what. When I do my podcast, I feel very exposed in every way it is difficult, challenging, way outside my comfort zone. The fact is, that is a good thing for me to keep going because I want to share a message to my audience. Even it is very uncomfortable it is the kind of thing that is appropriate for me and I expect more from myself. Our physical experience is always going to influence our emotional experience and for sure our capabilities. So I am glad I am doing it.
What about you. What makes you uncomfortable? When you are very ambitious and have a lot of things you want to get done you need to ask a lot of yourself. Suppose you want to be better on social media. That is a long game. That is NOT something you can sit down and do it over the weekend. It is something you have to commit to doing drip by drip, every day for a long time.
That is where habits really come in handy with something like that where you want to just put a behavior on automatic pilot, so you don’t have to use decision making, you don’t have to use self-control to get yourself to do something, you just do it without thinking. If you are very ambitious and have a lot of stuff you want to get done, the more you pay attention to the habits that are going to allow you to be highly functioning. The more you do these habits the more it happens like clockwork. You don’t decide to brush your teeth, right? you just do it without thinking about it.
Is kind of like, I’m able to do share my unique abilities because I teach what I know. Naturally, you look to see if I stick to my plan, and what you can expect to happen when you are following me. You want to know what it would look like on the other side and see what my results are. I get that… It is often the case THAT WE TEACH, what we need to learn. The ones who are drawn to certain kinds of areas are often struggling in those areas.
The tactics that I teach are something I have struggled with my business and I am still figuring it out but I want to share what I have learned going through my MLM journey. I might take an IMPERFECT ACTION here and there but, I honestly want to serve you to bring values to my audience and be that leader to walk you through step by step and teaching things “action-by-action”
My goal is to get into the nitty-gritty details that give you the confidence to build profitable systems in your business without the crazy tech freaks and overwhelming tasks. The bottom line in building any business as an entrepreneur is to really listen to that inner voice and let that be your guide. You don’t have to grow a business doing something you don’t like. You can be successful in your business, building it your way, with the right strategy, support, and consistency.
It’s all about taking action. It’s good to hear but it is great to actually do!
Thank you so very much for tuning in. Next week's episode is all about growth and contribution.
