MLM Success Tip #1 Look at your calendar

Do you want to be successful in Multi-level marketing? Take out your calendar and ask yourself how your week looks? Do you have your days and weeks full of appointments?

In ANY business venture its easy to fill out your calendar and make yourself SEEM busy with meaningless tasks that don't pay.

Understand that we are only paid on 4 things in this industry.

#1 Having a 1-on-1 appointment with a prospect.
#2 Having a 3-way call with another business builders prospect.
#3 Having a training session or strategy session with a business builder.
#4 Having a seminar, conference call, regional or international convention where you invite someone to attend with you.

We are in the people business so it is important to ALWAYS be in front of people.

Where would a doctor or dentist be if they didn't continually update their calendars or reconfirm appointments?

We are in the same boat as a business. We need to continually have appointments and work from meeting to meeting.

We should always ask ourselves this question: What's next? What's the next step? What's the next move?

A pro-golfer will admit they are always playing three to four strokes ahead. Why? To set their next shot up.

It's no different in the MLM arena.

My general agent when I worked in the insurance industry used to always say that to make a profit we should always have 10-15 appointments a week.

3 appointments a day and working from appointment to appointment, and always setting the next appointment sets you up for success in this industry. Between prospecting, having first time meetings, training meetings, and follow-ups, we should never be without an appointment.

Like a golfer, set your next shot up TODAY, and plan 1-2 weeks ahead.
