In online as well as off line marketing 97% of the folks are
failing. Why is that? For starters most people don't take their
business seriously enough to develop and incorporate the
necessary business building actions.

Many are working their businesses as if they were playing with their hobby. Success
in any business venture requires going the extra mile...reaching beyond the comfort
zone.

In MLM and Affiliate Marketing, going the extra mile requires
going beyond attempting to satisfy our own personal needs, wants
and desires, and reaches outside of self. It requires going
that extra mile to focus on and helping others achieve their
needs, wants and desires.

You'll note that successful MLM and Affiliate Marketers are
taking the time and efforts to focus on their team. They are
positioned to offer nurturing through leadership to their
down-line. Here they teach by leading, which offers a personal example.

Sure, nurturing your down-line takes time and stretches you.
But, the upside is it will not only transform ...
... you but all the lives you are touch.

How can you do that?

* Have faith in your team
* Encourage them
* Show appreciation for them
* Trust them and their judgments
* Openly and honestly share with your team
* Offer a system of support and training
* Take responsibility when you make mistakes

Leadership calls you to be an example to your organization. It calls for taking time
to get to know the members of your team
personally discovering what they need to effectively build their business, and
offering acknowledgment for a job well done. It requires you to put your actions where
your mouth is...actions speaks louder than words.

Stop for a moment and give this some thought. How many people do
you know in who YOU see great potential laying dormant...just
waiting to be discovered and developed? For example, you know a
child who had tremendous abilities to succeed in a given area.
What's needed is a caring adult (usually a parent) to identify that ability, bring
it to the child's attention in a way he/she can understand, then begin to
consistently encourage that child's confidence in the development of that area. Before
too long, Voila! that child is accomplishing great things.

Well, as a leader for an MLM or Affiliate organization your
responsibilities to your down-line are much the same.

We've all heard it; It's about building relationships. People
are looking for people in who they 'trust' to develop their
business associations. The truth is that many of these folks
deep, deep down KNOW they Can, and are looking for someone to
mentor them, bringing forth that confidence ... BELIEVING that
they can.

As you tap into your full potential in becoming a leader, and
demonstrating such qualities to your group, you'll be surprised
to discover that they will become far more productive. You'll
build a stronger organization of team players, begin to see the
leadership skills developed in potential leaders who will in
turn duplicate your efforts, because they respect and trust you.

One of the most wonderful things about taking responsibility
for leadership is it gives you the opportunity to be an encourager, a potential
developer and a giver of hope. Great leaders are givers of hope to their team, when
folks can't find
that hope within themselves.

Being a trustworthy leader has many, many benefit. One of the
most important is that it enables you to build and maintain an
open workable relationship with your team members, which usually
results in life long friendships. An added BONUS is that you
will discover personal growth and development beyond your
wildest imagination. You'll love the new you!

So let's re-cap, we see that by providing effective leadership to your organization,
you'll develop trust, energize your team to become more productive, and build a
stronger organization of team players and leaders. This is tapping into your true
potential as well as the potential of your organization. Your organization will only be as
effective as your are in it's leadership.

The world is looking for leaders. You've got some in your
down-line, why not tap into your full potential and develop
them?? ABOUT THE AUTHOR
