As a leader, you can make your new recruit's belief even stronger by getting additional assistance from your upline leaders. My sponsor has committed two full days a week to work with your downline. He is a meeting expert and also specializes in getting referrals. That means even more new distributors in your group. Nothing motivates better than helping people reach their goals.
Most leaders spread their efforts too thin.
They try to reach levels of achievement and ranks too fast. This leaves them with turnover and the time-wasting efforts of rebuilding decimated groups. For instance, let's imagine that your goal was to build four first-level distributors to the rank of Big Time Leader. Many leaders would sponsor four distributors and work with all four simultaneously. At the end of one year, maybe all four first-level distributors would make it to the Leader level, but at least two or three of them would have weak groups.
