Be A Life Coach

Randy Gage has a brilliant piece about becoming a life coach to your team members on his Network Marketing Times page. Take a look under the hood.

If you want to be attractive to prospects, and want to be more helpful to your team members, become a life coach.

Don’t try to be a psychiatrist. (Although sometimes it sure feels that way!) Just truly care about people, and what’s going on in their lives.

When I counsel with my team members, we look at who their upcoming leaders are, where they should work long distance, how many presentations they should do, and many things like that. But the real bulk of what we discuss is the other stuff…

How to reduce friction in their marriage, solve personality conflicts with key people, when to quit their job, buy a house, or reduce their debt.

One of the biggest draws in network marketing is the community we provide. Yes the money, cars and trips are cool. But the sexiest stuff is stronger marriages, better relationships with their kids, friendship, fellowship, and happiness.

So don’t get blinded by the bonus checks and rank advancement. Help people make their lives work better and the business will improve all by itself.
