If you have joined a network marketing company, it is very likely that someone has referred you to that company. In that case, that person will be called your SPONSOR in your particular company.
Note that, a sponsor has some specific roles within the company. It is not that you just need some training about how to succeed with your network marketing company, and your company will provide you that training, and you will absorb that training, then follow it and succeed.
No, it is not like that. If that were the case, then everyone would have succeeded with network marketing. Keep in mind that, different people excel at different rates, based on their attitude, mindset, knowledge and experience.
Some people may need one to one support, while others not. Some people are already experienced in network marketing and so they can quickly grasp the training of your company, and start taking action. They don’t really need help from another person.
On the other hand, some others are relatively new to this field, therefore they need special attention and support, so that they are able to transition from being unsure or doubtful to a more comfortable state .
This is where a good sponsor, with good overall knowledge about how network marketing works, can provide great support to these people.
A Good Sponsor is Proficient in Duplication
A good sponsor will be able to create duplication within their downline.
Which means, they are able to teach and show their downline effectively what is working for them, so that their downline start duplicating them, and thus start growing their own downline too.
A good sponsor should have good communication and leadership skills. They are able to motivate and inspire their downline, and they are able to communicate their ideas clearly to their downline.
A good sponsor should also have a sound knowledge about the network marketing business model, and how their network marketing company operates.
What Not to Expect from Your Sponsor?
Note that even if you have got a good sponsor, your sponsor’s role is to guide you, and provide support to you.
However most likely, your sponsor is not going to do things for you. The role of a sponsor is not to build the business for you. That is NOT their responsibility. Their responsibility is to PROVIDE GUIDANCE AND SUPPORT to you.
When you have joined a network marketing company, you are actually building your own business. You are building your own downline.
Hence you must think like a business builder (leader), and TAKE CHARGE.
YOU must take responsibility to learn necessary things and then take consistent action to grow your network marketing business (grow your own downline).
Without taking responsibility, you are most likely not to succeed. You must constantly remind yourself to take necessary action regularly and on a consistent basis, to grow your business.
Keep in mind that, when you join a network marketing company, sooner or later, you have to take similar role like that of your sponsor, to grow your own downline too.
So, prepare yourself for this kind of job and develop the proper mindset.
