Lead by example. Do all the things you want your distributors to emulate. And learn as much as you can about them. Oh, now I see how this network marketing thing works, but I could never do that. In other words, if you are to succeed, your prospects must always be able to envision themselves doing what you re doing.
Small desire produces small results just as small fires produce little heat.
Keep in touch with everyone in your downline regularly. For your key people, make it daily if possible. Develop retail customers and encourage your distributors to do the same. Doing so can generate immediate profits. This also builds confidence and has a springboard effect for future success in all facets of the business.
