Are you on the right network-marketing team?

Has any one else ever joined a network-marketing group before? What happens next? I'll tell you what, nothing! Nothing, why, because no one told me what to do next. They said "I've a great business opportunity for you, pay this, sign here." But that's where their engagement with you stopped no step1 let alone step2. Maybe the person will ask how's your business going , but without guidance it doesn't go anywhere. Network-marketing takes a lot of work. That work is extra difficult when you aren't even sure what you should be doing. So how do get around this problem you need a mentor, but if the person that signed you up just started, what then? So you need more then just a mentor, you need a strong team with leaders who possess expertise in your product and how to market it. Those leaders then need ways to get that information to there team in a way that it can be used to duplicate their results. Anybody familiar with Michael Gerber's E-Myth series? It's good stuff he talks about duplicable systems. I mention this because if your on a team and it isn't giving you tools that are easily duplicable you might need a new team. There should be systems and protocols in place that can be followed with little experience and/or understanding. Essentially you should be able to fake it until you make it. Knowledge and understanding will come with time and experience the process should be set up in a way that as you follow the steps gain understanding. My own mentor found the perfect network-marketing business, signed up was ready to go. Guess what happened? Nothing , that's right nothing happened. He discovered those above him where lame ducks, wasn't the companies fault plenty of people where making money and doing great. So what was the problem, great company and super product. Two things caused him to fail. First-lack of knowledge and experience. Second-the most important the lack of leaders with systems in place to see the new recruits through the process. Realising the problem he didn't give up. What he did do is quit that dead-end team, spent some time researching in order to get on a winning team and is now succeeding. So I ask you if you are on a team, is it the right one and if not what you going to do about it?
