Quitting is Not an Option

I have often heard that of all those who join network marketing, 97% fail. Fail? I don’t think so. Quit? Very likely! I really don’t have a precise percentage, but it may well be about 97% who quit without ever really trying.
Far too many people get into network marketing expecting it to be easy. With many companies, the work is uncomplicated, but it is work.
Many people should never be in network marketing to begin with, because they are not self-disciplined enough to work without a boss telling them what to do. To work for themselves, they must be able to manage their time. There are only 24 hours in each day, and if they do not utilize that time appropriately, they are unproductive, become frustrated that their business is not growing... and then they quit!
A small percentage of network marketers get into it knowing they will succeed, and they will do whatever it takes to make it happen. They do not just want to succeed, they expect to succeed. That small percentage of people actually usually works harder and longer hours than they ever did when they had a j-o-b. I am among them, because no one will pay me unless I work and earn the money! The residual income I am growing is my retirement. If I ever decide I no longer want to work, my residuals must last me the rest of my life.
Once someone finds a business opportunity they love, with a product or service about which they are passionate, they are not stressed out by working long hours. They have a feeling of satisfaction at the end of each day and look forward to “going to work” the following day.
During the several years I have been in network marketing, only a small fraction of those joining my team had the “quitting is not an option” attitude. Most only planned to “give it a try,” and they gave up at the very first challenge. I have gotten better about predicting which have the right attitude to succeed, but I am far from perfect.
I only speak to prospects who contact me. I don’t call people on lead lists. So, my prospects are “serious” candidates, but I still bring in a few new team members who deserved Academy Awards for their performance during our “interview.” Once they join, they disappear and apparently join the “witness protection program.” And then, they join the 90+ percent who quit.

| | |  | | Great comments everyone! Those of us who ARE meant to be successful network marketers seem to agree what it takes to be one. |
| | |  | | THis is so true Julie... I think dedication and passion must be an asset for you to be an online marketer. I totally agree with you, i'm a nurse and i just start online marketing i spend more hours teaching and learning new materials online than i spend at my day job, sounds crazy bcoz i work 12hrs shit but if you are driven you will be passionate....

| | |  | | A great article Julie, That's the way I look at it, they are not failures, they are quitters. And you are correct, it takes a person with a great deal of self-discipline to succeed in this game. TB&L my friend |
| | |  | | Awesome Blog Julie, I totally agree one has to be motivated and want themselves to succeed. Continued Success and Blessings my friend. Will like and tweet for you also. |
| | | | | Bob, I believe motivation comes from within. We can mentor and hope to inspire team members to follow our example, but we cannot make them work. Years ago, I never would have turned someone down. Today, I occasionally do so.
Thank you all for your great feedback. |
| | |  | | Hard work and self discipline is a must when you work from home. It is the only way to succeed |
| | |  | | Totally true Julie. I use to get everyone I could to join my team. Then I would spend all my time trying to motivate them toward success. They would then quit and move on to the next opportunity. So I have learned to do what you say, just spend time on those who at least give the appearance of being motivated. |
| | | | | You're absolutely right Daisy. 3% of 100 is 3, but 3% of 1000 is 30, etc. The percentage likely will not increase, but your team will!
Thank you Joseph. I must have done my makeup well the day my picture was taken! No, I don't plan to retire any time soon. As long as I can sit at a computer, I'll be working! |
| | |  | | So true Julie. Great article. Quitters never win, and winners never quit. |
| | |  | | great blog,I remember when you joined us.One problem you have a lot to offer,your too young to retire |
| | |  | | I understand. I see it all the time as well. I think that the more people you talk to the better chances you have of finding someone that does not quit. |
