One of the best pieces of advice I can give anyone just getting started in direct sales or in their new role as a leader is to Make It Your Own!   If you try to run your business using your upline’s style, preferences or actions it may not be the right way for you to work your business.

Let me elaborate more on that. It’s also good advice that if you want to be successful, find out what those who have gone before you are doing, and do that.   I agree with that, why invent the wheel? But, to get back to the previous paragraph of making it your own, don’t copy someone exactly.   Think of it like plagiarism. You don’t want to copy someone verbatim. It’s okay to take an existing idea and tweak it to your personality. There really are no original ideas anymore, they’re just existing ones with individual spins put on it.

If your trainer, mentor, coach says, “Here is how you do it. You do A B C, and then you say X Y Z” take it with a grain of salt. Do not copy that person verbatim.   Take what you like, and discard the rest. Use your upline’s information, and the list below as a GUIDE. Consider it a menu from which you can select a variety of items, or you can take something listed and reinvent it to suit you.

See you at the top!
