Network Marketing: Selling vs. Sorting

Linda Locke:

One of the fundamental keys to success in network marketing is learning that your job is to sort people, not to sell them. You won’t be successful if you try to persuade everyone you meet into joining you. You need to offer the opportunity to people and then sort through them, watching and waiting for their responses. If they get excited and “get it”, and they are motivated, then you can work with them.

It’s like the old saying, “Never teach a pig to sing. It wastes your time and annoys the pig!” No matter how good your opportunity is there are some people that will never join and don’t want to take control of their lives, so don’t waste your valuable time on them. Just work with the people that have the potential for success.
