Will it Work for Me?
There are only two basic responses you get when you offer people a business opportunity. They both tell you in advance whether or not the person will succeed or not. Yes, you can predict their success by the questions they ask you. I am called the Prophet of Profit. I can predict wealth or want when I hear you speak. Your questions reflect your self-esteem, self-respect, beliefs, expectations, values and track record.
Whether you’re promoting Network Marketing, selling a business, or looking for a JV partner, this insight will help you avoid selecting the wrong people to work with and guide you to the right people. That’s a small percentage of people - quality is costly, but the return on your investment of time and energy is well worth it.
Let’s start with the losers. Their questions will be something like this: ” What if it doesn’t work? What are you making? What are other people earning in this venture? How do I know I will succeed? How can I get it cheaper? What’s the catch? Why does it seem so easy? How do I know you’re telling me the truth? Can I wait a while? Why do I have to make a decision now? Is this Network Marketing? Why did John fail doing this? How much can I lose? What will other people think if I fail?” They think in terms of negative expectations, failure, scarcity, fear, and distrust. Avoid them like the plague. They will fail and blame you. They will waste your time and frustrate you. They will contaminate your team with the cancer of pessimism.
These are the questions that winners will ask you: “When can I start? What are my limitations? What stops me from going straight to the top? What awards can I win? When do I start getting paid? Can I do this faster?” Successful people have a track record of success. They believe in themselves and they expect to win. They respect themselves and their time. They are strong enough to say , “Yes” or “No” and make a quick decision. They are used to succeeding. They are self-motivated. They don’t quit easily and they attract good people because of their high level of confidence. These are the people you should choose to work with. Invest your time and energy with them. Put up with them, because they will make you richer. They communicate, confront issues, and get back to you fast. They come from a place of abundance, optimism, courage and strength, so they win.
Listen to the response, categorize, and make your on decision. Decide who you want on your side, in your team, in your platoon. Would you choose a deserter or a coward to go into battle with you? I think not. Choose the best warriors.
