One of the secrets to success in the network marketing business is to create a steady flow of qualified leads.

If you’re new to this business you might wonder why that is so important. Here’s the scoop. In fact, you may have been led to believe that you can achieve huge success just by “showing the plan” to your friends and family!

However, if you’re in network marketing and you want to treat it as a serious business, you must realize that this is a numbers game, plain and simple.

Yes, I know you’re dealing with people and yes, you need to build relationships with them.

But the bottom line is you need to talk to a certain number of people in order to find the small percentage who will actually take the business seriously.

Here are a few real life examples.

Bill Britt is one of the most successful distributors in Amway. When asked about his secret to success he said, “There is no secret. I simply showed the plan to 1200 people. 900 said, ‘No’ and only 300 signed up. Out of those 300, only 85 did anything at all. Out of those 85 only 35 were serious, and out of those 35, 11 made me a millionaire.”

Jeff, the top money earner in Mannatech, signed up 27 people his first month. One might think that he is especially talented at sponsoring. Actually, Jeff will be the first to tell you that he is not talented at all. In fact, he feels that he did very poorly. To recruit those 27, Jeff talked to 2000 people that first month. And of the 27, the only one who did anything significant with the business was Ray Gebauer, who has more than half of Mannatech in his downline. Jeff’s word to you is this: The numbers never lie. Pick your goal and then get into massive action. If you talk to enough people, you will make it!

But here’s the catch: You need to create your own set of odds – and you won’t know what they are until AFTER YOU’VE SUCCEEDED!

Maybe you’ve gone through 50 or 100 people and you haven’t found one serious person yet. Maybe that has you thinking about quitting? Your choices are, you can either do that and assume the business doesn’t work, or recognize that this is a numbers game and that you are working through your own odds.

Of course you can improve your numbers through training, practice and experience. But you can’t change human nature! The very real fact is that a lot of people will join your business with great intentions. But a significant number of them won’t make a serious commitment to building a business.

Take a lesson from those who have been successful. They all had to work through the numbers.

If you’re aware of this reality and are willing to find the few who will follow through, then you’ve got what it takes to succeed.

What do you need to do? It’s simple: play the network marketing numbers game!
