How to Keep Your MLM Downline From Abandoning You - Hint - It's NOT What You Think!

Are you playing the adding and subtracting game with your downline? Is your downline dropping like flies, falling by the wayside. Are you always having to convince someone to stay in the boat or catch their shirttail right before they jump off a cliff?Playing Russian roulette with your downline is no fun.So, what's with the disappearing downline, anyways? You've spent countless hours training your them on everything from how to generate leads, how to build a list, how to talk with their prospects on the phone; you've helped them practive their personal story until you're both blue in the face. You've supported their opportunity meetings and done the 3-way calls. In fact, you thought everything was fine. They're signing up new distributors and product users here and there. Things are going the way they're supposed to-they're making progress and with a little more time, they'll get to their destination. After all, building a business takes time, right? Right.So... what's with the disappearing downline??See, you thought your distributors have a lack of patience. A lack of patience with a few leads, slow upfront growth, and they lack the patience for the time involved. You thought they lacked the stamina to keep building, upset because they haven't gone into profit yet. I'm gonna let you in on a little secret...It's not the lack of patience, so much as it is the Lack of Money...money to stay in the game, money to continue paying a $150 autoship in order to make money in the first place, the lack of money to fund their marketing efforts.You see, at the end of the day, If the baby needs diapers, the baby needs diapers...If the rent is due, you pay it or live outside... If the tow truck is outside stealing your car in the middle of the night, you come up with the money to get it back...If a nail flattens your tire on the way to work, it is the first thing you fix-right...? Right. Besides, that car takes you to the job that's been paying for your business.Let's face it, life happens when life decides to happen and when it does, that $150 for autoship and your other business expenses has just been delegated as money you now need to Feed your Family.So, how do you hang onto your business builders until they're safely into profit? You help them with their lack of money- the money they need to keep their business afloat! And... you have about 60-90 days to do this before your distributors abandon you to take care of LIFE.Teach them how to monetize with products and services that will pay them upfront commissions and generate leads for their network marketing business at the same time. These commissions should quickly provide the income necessary to continue with autoship and marketing. You see, your serious business builders are patient enough to wait for the larger commissions and residual income and will hang in there when LIFE happens provided they have a LifeLine!Just be sure that you're not wasting money with the commissionable products you choose. Choose products that apply to your target market and are relatively inexpensive. Be sure to teach your team how to make the commissions with these products and which ones to chose. Remember, this will be foreign to them, so you will have to be the LEADER in this arena!
