There are claims out there that as many as 97% of all Network Marketers fail. If you want to have success as a Network Marketer and be in that top 3%, then you need to do some soul searching and think about "why" you want to be in network marketing. You will have to recharge your determination and most importantly develop a marketing system that works for you.

There are claims out there that as many as 97% of all Network Marketers fail. If you want to have success as a Network Marketer and be in that top 3%, then you need to do some soul searching and think about "why" you want to be in network marketing. You will have to recharge your determination and most importantly develop a marketing system that works for you.

The cold hard realty is that many Network Marketers should not be in the business at all. If a person does not have extra time to work, some money to invest, a little computer skill, and the motivation to build a business then they should pursue a different avenue to success. This almost certainly eliminates about 50% of all network marketers currently in the business. Lets call them the 50%ers.

When you subtract the top 3% of successful marketers from the 50%ers we are left with 47% of struggling network marketers. These people understand "why" they are in network marketing. They get it and are committed to being a 3%er in the future, but they are struggling. Most will probably fail if they don't develop a marketing system.

Success in Network Marketing is based on team productivity developed through strong, determined and knowledgeable team. The average Network Marketer has limited time, energy, and mental capacity each day to dedicate to their business. Without focused effort within a proven system most Network Marketers have to figure everything out for themselves.

Most Network Marketers are employed full time with the added burden of trying to build their business. Most just spin their wheels, hoping for a streak of good luck. They have the typical lottery mentality. The average Network Marketer survives about 90 days. They spend that time chasing friends and family and practicing old school marketing techniques that result in one maybe two people joining their business.

Most marketers will eventually quite because they can't handle the rejection and the feeling of failure. This is why so many people say that network marketing does not work. The difficulty is not with network marketing; because the truth of the matter is that it works and works well. The problem is that you need to market to a lot of people and not just the people on your memory jogger list. Most Network Marketers have idea how to reach a large audience.

Network Marketers want and need a marketing system that they can utilize themselves and help others in their group implement. If you find that you are one of the 47%ers struggling to obtain success in Network Marketing don't give up. If your up-line has not given you a marketing system you can utilize, then start looking for a system that you can use.

Look for someone who is having success and duplicate what they are doing. Don't just look to others who are promoting within your own company. If someone has a successful marketing system promoting Isagenix, that system can be used to promote NuSkin. Success in network marketing is achieved by reaching a large number of people. A successful marketing system coupled with a strong belief in the company and products you are promoting will equal success in network marketing and move you to the top 3%.
