Network Marketing Business Mentors – Do You Have One?

For any Network marketer, the start-up period is the most challenging. Most marketers face several obstacles and failures during this phase. These challenges can compel you to withdraw from the network marketing industry entirely. At this stage, a network marketing mentor comes to the rescue. A Network Marketing mentor is a motivational figure with considerable experience in the marketing and networking business. With their experience, they know the tricks and tools of the trade to be successful. They are able to identify ambiguities and help in setting up a success plan for your Network Marketing business.

According to communication theories, every individual has an area of reference, also called prejudices. This area takes inputs from the surrounding environment and helps in making decisions. The area of reference plays a major role in building your Network Marketing business. It defines the route that an individual takes to generate leads and develop downline. With able mentorship, it is possible to expand the area of reference and align it with sound business principles and objectives.

Some of my favorite, and most popular, mentors who are considered experts in business development are Jim Rohn, Anthony Robbins, and Brian Tracy.

Jim Rohn

“Don’t wish it was easier; wish you were better. Don’t wish for less problems; wish for more skills. Don’t wish for less challenges; wish for more wisdom.”

Jim Rohn is considered as one the most influential business mentors in the history of America. He has been holding seminars for more than 39 years and has addressed more than four million people worldwide. His inspirational writings (a set of 17 books) still inspire many people after his death in 2009. He was one of the pioneers in the personality development industry and encouraged other renowned business mentors, such as Anthony Robbins, Brian Tracy, Jack Canfield and Mark Victor.

Anthony Robbins

“I challenge you to make your life a masterpiece. I challenge you to join the ranks of those people who live what they teach, who walk their talk.”

Considered to be a powerful business mentor, Robbins has authored five books, including Unlimited Power: The New Science of Personal Achievement and Awaken The Giant Within. As a promoter of neuro-linguistic programming (NLP), his seminars include firewalking and hypnosis to realize your potential. His training material is also available online or in CDs.

Brian Tracy

“Develop an attitude of gratitude and give thanks for everything that happens to you, knowing that every step forward is a step toward achieving something bigger and better than your current situation.”

Audio books by Brain Tracy contain training material on leadership, management, sales and strategy development. A highly motivational speaker, Tracy has authored several books. He also runs Brian Tracy University, an online platform aimed at providing motivational and management training to entrepreneurs and business professionals. The experience and knowledge of Tracy has motivated millions of people across the world.

Taking a slice from their experience can give you an insight into the intricacies of business development. Mentorship training materials developed by these influential business gurus are a valuable asset in building knowledge for successful Network Marketing.
