What Makes a Person Right?
May 28 Determining what makes a person right for you is probably one of the keys in creating business success. Remember in "Network Marketing by Design" you are responsible for creating the type of business that reflects your values, has a distinct need and mission to fulfill in the marketplace and in the lives of those who join you, and provides the environment that results in you and others who join you achieving their goals.
People will follow you…not your company or products. So, you need to be clear about YOU first. Ask yourself these questions.
- Do I reflect the mindset of a leader?
That doesn’t mean you have to be making a six figure income and already be a top performer. It means you see yourself as someone who can lead with confidence and believes you can attract other leaders. If you want strong leadership on your team, you need to posture yourself as a leader.
- Can you provide value to others? Are you willing to give before you get and do you have something worthwhile to give?
People are attracted to those who provide something they want and your value in the marketplace will attract those who need or want what you can provide. Others who offer value will also be more attracted to you as partners. Make giving a priority!
- Can you communicate effectively with all personality types?
Not everyone is going to be just like you. Yes, you attract people similar, but a strong team will be made up of many talents and motivations and having good people skills will make you a more attractive person to a greater variety of people. It’s important to grow relationships of trust first, and communication is a key to building relationships that often expand into deeper friendships
Mike Dillard’s Magnetic Sponsoring is a great resource for developing a stronger leadership mindset. If you want to learn more about “alpha” leadership and posturing and why that is important in attraction marketing, I recommend purchasing the book for your library and referencing it often. He has been one of my key mentors in network and internet marketing and I’ve received incredible value from him.
The next step is having clarity about the type of person who isn’t just “right”, but is right for you. Write down the qualities you desire in a strategic partner. Keep in mind the core character traits that are needed for home business success and look for those as you communicate with people. Keep your list close and use it as a reminder to ask the questions that will help you select the right person for you.
Stay away from the mindset that everyone who shows up is “right”. Steer clear of the poverty mentality that tries to convince you to enroll everyone, whether they’re right or not. You’ll have a lot more fun, establish a more effective business, better serve your team members, as well as make more money if you have the perfect people joining you. That’s using attraction marketing to design a win/win for your network marketing business.

Communicating with all personality types is important because people respond to different things and you must be able to advertise to each of the four personality types.
