Have you ever lost information for a follow-up on an MLM prospect? Or maybe you are like I was with sticky notes all over your desk, piles of papers and reminders to keep track of your prospects.

I tried the card box system, the binder with tabs, the sticky notes. Nothing really worked until I had enough and decided to create my own system.

You see, I had information all over the place. Notes of my calls, emails sent, replies from emails, etc. How could I keep track of everything to do proper follow-up?

I decided to create an Excel document that would keep track of everything. Not only that, it would also tell me which lead source performs the most and where I should invest my time.

I could, at a glance, see who’s my next prospect to call, how many times I called, where they are in the process and everything that happened with this prospect. Read the rest of this entry

Last week-end I was in Phoenix Arizon for a specialized training with our leaders and I had the pleasure to hear my partner Tim Sales describe the main reason most mlm training fail.

If one piece is missing, you can’t succeed. That one piece can kill your new reps and destroy your entire business.

The special forces have special training. That’s what makes them special. MLM requires special training too if you don’t want the results of the masses.

This is what is explained in this video. It took 400 hours of scripting, editing, video shooting to create the kind of training the industry has been in need for 60 years.

MLM success stories are looked at as heroes. Are they really? Or are they just following on the same path you are? What if you knew you are one stage away from total success? From reaching all of your dreams, living the lifestyle and having all the money to do the things that are important in your life?

Last year I learned a valuable lesson in my network marketing career as I learned to surf behind a boat. But before I tell you about my experience, let me tell you where I got my understanding of the learning process. It comes from the “ Conscious Competence ” learning model.

It is not clear who originated the very first ‘conscious competence’ learning model. Various modern authors are named, but sources as old as Confucius and Socrates are cited as possible earliest originators. But the model clearly explains the 4 stages you go through in your business. Not understanding these stages is the fundamental reason for the failure of a lot of training and teaching in the network marketing industry.

Now back to my surfing experience…

Each summer I would go on the lake and watch people surf and do wakeboarding. It looked so easy. I was at the ‘Unconsciously Incompetent ‘ stage (this is the fantasy stage – ‘Oh, I can do this, I’ve done snowboarding, surfing doesn’t look too hard’).

Next thing you know, my brother calls me and says “Stephane, come over I just bought a surf, let’s go try it.” That second stage is called ‘Consciously Incompetent ,’ (This is the reality stage: ‘Oh my God, what have I gotten myself into – this is so much harder than I thought.’).
