Today see's the end of this business period, one which we have fallen behind target on.
Sometimes its hard to explain why things that worked last time weren't as succesful this time.
We are as committed as ever on this, we have worked as hard but had different results. The problem is that you cant look at a period in isolation, it is a constant growth and whilst you may have good weeks and bad weeks the key is that the trend is upwards.
Last month saw 3 new connectors buying the products, 2 personal trainers and a homeopath. All potentially very good and able to build the business on their own. Some of our team have been on holiday or away from the area because of work, they are all now back and we can start to help them kickstart their business.
One of the advantages of this business is also one of the things people find hard to grasp. It is unlike employment and too often we are caught up in the employee mode. We are used to doing X hours and getting paid X times £Y. We know what work we have done and how much money to expect. In this business sometimes we can do 100 hours and appear to get nothing, then go away from it for a week, do nothing and earn more money than ever. Our mentor Tim was telling us how they went touring around South America for several months doing no work in that time and came back to the biggest cheques ever.
So next month will be the month we reap the rewards for this months sowing as Jim Rohn would say.
Its fair to say a few tears of frustration have been shed this week, a week where seemingly nothing happened.
We realised that we were at a key moment, a defining moment. This is the moment that losers quit. Its these moments that you win in, not in the moments when everything goes your way.
Tomorrow marks a new period, it will be our best yet. We have a lot of irons in the fire, a lot of quality people are looking at this and deciding whether to join. Some of them will join, some wont. Of those that join we are in a position to support them to build their teams. Those that decide in a few months will kick them selves for not joining when the momentum was at its highest.
We are going to work with the connectors to help them develop a business.
We are going to help everyone in our team get to their goals.
How are we going to do this?
We are going to keep on doing what we do well, developing relationships, helping our team and one to one meetings but we are also going to work on a new and exciting strategy, we have the basics of it at the moment and have been working on them, on sunday we are having a strategy meeting with Tim to devise an overall strategy to really build on this and push us in a new direction opening it up to even more people.
