Do you have a strong foundation? Do you know what it even means to build your business on a strong foundation?
If not, itâs okay!
We got ya back!
Building your biz (or anything) on a strong foundation is gonna be the factor of it lasting or falling apart.
Think about it like this⌠if you donât build your relationship/marriage on a strong foundation with God, itâs unlikely to last. If you donât build a house on a strong foundation, itâs not likely to stay standing very long. So, if your plan is to build a strong, successful business, you must build it on a strong foundation.
As youâre going through your journey, itâs important that you build on a solid foundation.
Weâve talked to a lot of people that THINK they need to start with Facebook ads and all the other technical stuff to build their biz, but completely miss building a solid foundation. Donât get us wrong, Facebook ads, emails, etc. do and will help build your business. But if you donât have your foundational steps in place, it wonât be strong enough to stay standing.
As always, we share what we know and what weâve gone through⌠and listen when we tell yaâŚ. Weâve done this before. We THOUGHT we could skip the âsmallâ steps to create something huge. Annndddd we were SUPER WRONG! We had success and built big teams, then lost it in a blink of an eye. #NotFun
We definitely donât wish the same thing to happen to you, SO! Letâs dig in so you can make sure you are following the right steps to build a solid foundation for yourself, your team, and your biz.
-
PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT
First, youâve got to have a strong personal development routine for yourself. Something that you can even share with your team that they can follow with you. We love to read, listen to audio books, and read our vision daily.
Reading makes such a huge difference. So many times, people will come to us and need help with something that we just read that morning. Crazy how it works that way. But what if we didnât take those few minutes to read? We wouldnât be able to help them. So what reading does is⌠it helps to prepare you for the dayâŚWho youâre gonna help that day⌠How youâre gonna handle an objection today⌠make sense? Taking a couple minutes to read in the morning can make a HUGE difference in your day.
So many people think that they can skip this step, but we promise you, PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT is the most important step while building your biz. Donât put it off until you get home from a busy day at work and are too tired to spend that time with yourself (because it probably wonât happen).
We used to get up early in the morning to get some personal time in before the day started. So even if you start with 15 minutes in the morning, itâll change your day more than youâll ever know! So, go ahead and make a commitment to set your alarm and give it a try.
REMEMBER: Itâs the work you do on yourself thatâs going to impact the work that you do in your business.
2. BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS
Second thing is, you have to understand the importance of building relationships and networking.
WHHYYY do we hear this so often:
âI donât wanna talk to people, but I wanna build a businessâ.
DOESNâT EVEN MAKE SENSE!
To get anywhere in this world, it will always take NETWORKING.
You should always be building relationships. It doesnât mean that you should always be offering everyone you see your opportunity. It means that making a friend or an acquaintance could turn into a customer or business partner later down the road.
Networking is the number one skill we can development. And it isnât always just for your network marketing business. It can mean getting first class on the airplane or getting a free appetizer at your favorite restaurant.
Your job is to build relationships. If those people become customers or reps in your businessâŚ. Itâs not up to you to decide that.
3. EYES ON PRESENTATION
And that links us right into the third step of building a strong foundation.
Get eyes on your presentation. No matter what.
We actually created a resource sharing scripts that we use to get people to watch your presentation.
Use those scripts to get people to watch. DO NOT worry about the outcome. Itâs good to get âNOâsâ. The âNOâ is getting you closer to a âYESâ. You have to completely separate your emotions from the outcome.
Once you get people to take a look at your offer, donât forget to follow up. Weâve all heard it beforeâŚ
âThe fortune is in the follow up.â
Itâs so true! So, keep a list of the ones that said they would take a look and FOLLOW UP with them.
We really hope this helped! Make sure to get your read on! Make connections daily! And get eyes on your presentation! Once you have a solid foundation following these 3 things, then you can go ahead and start adding the fancy stuff đ
OH! And of course, don't forget to download our FREE resource we created to help you build your business with a strong foundation and FAST!
