Hey there, nother great idea. I was criticized once because a member of my successline passed books door to door on Memorial Day. So all holidays I sit home working on admimistrative stuff and wishing I could go out and do something. This idea of holding an event, not sure how to accomplish it yet, but I sure will try.

Consistency is of the key component of the MLM success formula.

Build a large number of people
CONSISTENTLY doing small things
in a sustainable period of time.

Jepp, I know what you are talking abouth :) Great tip

QOTD : My plan is to focus on 10.

10 calls, 10 new contacts, 10 pages of reading, 10 minutes of NMPRO training , 10 minutes of cardio and 10 minutes of strength training ; 10 new team members = President's club
10 weeks to Salt Lake City !
10 - 10 - 10 !

Hugs
Chris

QOTD: Everyone's on holiday, I'm on holiday - so how do I keep up momentum? Online of course. The main thing is to keep contact with your team, customers and prospects. Don't disappear from their lives just because you're on holiday. Send mails, links, recommend books, and if there's no internet - send sms's.
Then before the holiday ends - invite for the first post-holiday event.

Great advice Eric on how to keep the momentum. I can see how easy it is to get distracted in the summer (or Christmas time, etc.)
I've noticed already in June that I'm spending more time outdoors with the family and making plans for vacations, beach days, etc. This has caused me to think, "Wait a minute here. I do NOT want September to come around and I haven't done anything with this business."

QOTD: I kind of feel that if I DON'T spend the appropriate time on my business, I'm letting my team down. I want to make sure that I keep motivating my downline (no matter how small it is). So, I'm planning to devote some time each day to my netwok marketing business and just try to get in the habit of making it a daily practice. Also, to keep getting on the calls and webinars.

MANTENER TU NEGOCIO CONSTANTE DURANTE TODO EL AÑO.

Durante el calor del verano, es muy fácil perder unas cuantas semanas por un descuido de algunas semanas si no diriges correctamente el tema de las vacaciones. A cada vez que la gente está distraída, es tu trabajo mantener tu negocio de MLM abierto y creciendo. Aquí quiero compartir contigo como hacerlo.
Al perder el enfoque con las vacaciones, hace calor, vamos a la playa, hoy no tengo ganas, vamos al cine.

Lo que hacen los profesionales es programar un gran evento poderoso con todos los equipos, para reponer el bajón de los días especiales como Semana Santa, Carnaval, Navidades, Año Nuevo, Día de la Independencia, etc.… Igual van a perder unas dos semanas y entonces hay que reconstruir la energía, mantener el negocio abierto. Por eso el mes de Julio en USA es el más lento, por las vacaciones, las distracciones. No dejes que este bajón afecte tu productividad.

No pierdan su MOMENTUM.

Espero volver a verte pronto,
Hasta luego

Keeping momentum is easy when you truly believe in your products and the company. I talk about it everywhere I go. Even at functions, get togethers and holiday parties etc. I just can't help myself. I'm on even while I travel, on an airplane, in a hotel w/staff, out dining. I'm having a blast and people see it and are attracted to it. There is no holiday since I'm living my dream because everyday is a holiday!

I will try to catch up on my readings.

I have the following books to read:
Think and grow rich
A a man thinketh
It's Networking times

fiuuu
a lot of good stuff to read, hu?

Love you all

For us who are still struggling and finding it difficult to withstand the rollercoaster ups and downs and loop-de-loops of network marketing, especially if full-time, sometimes we can't see that far ahead to plan. Often, we're living day-to-day, commission cheque-to-commission cheque. Maybe planning ahead is a good way to attract a better success and break the cycle?

This is absolutely the most difficult thing for me to do, especially when running another business. Good time management skills are essential. It is so easy to proscratinate by saying, "I'll do double duty tomorrow because I just don't have time to make calls today!"

I live where the weather is not seasonal. The weather is the same, day in, day out, 365 days a year here. It is the first two weeks of a Minnesota June here every day. I am still learning to stay on task and have not developed a useful method for marking the past and future. Events are a great help and my experience of time is, it either happened in the last two weeks or before that. Annual events appear almost out of nowhere still. Managining others experience of time may be a key component I need to spend more time on.

Eric,
Thanks again for your mentorship. Another in the line of a series of great tips. In my company we are building toward 2 events per the suggestions of or top field leadership and Corporate. The first one is local here in Indy in the 2nd week of August. The second is our company's annual worldwide conference in Utah in September.... This is in addition to our weekly opportunity meetings.

So true Eric,

Always trying to stay PERSISTANTLY - CONSISTANT is one of my quirks..One has to keep the momentum going.
Even with summer holidays coming up most people say - 'well it's summer and people won't be interested." Big mistake - that is the time to build because most other Network Marketing people won't do it so make sure we professionals DO!!!

good point Eric. Thank you

So what do you do in let's say the Easter school holiday period where a lot of people here go on vacation for at least a week if not two.
Thanks Eric.
