Oh, I understand now…

How do you know when your upline sponsor(s) don’t support you in your Network Marketing Business and it’s time to move on or move away?

They have a major event and promote (art of promotion) crossline instead of downline.

There are all kinds of excuses like pin level, the lack of support these crossline people get in their own organization, etc.  It’s always our job to “support the company” (be on board and not hinder the spirit of unity) and support crossline.  However, should you exclude promoting the people in your own organization?  Note:  these so-called leaders will always have an answer but are you asking them the hard question:  Why don’t you support your own downline who’s been paying your leadership check for years?

Note:  Many distributors in various organizations don’t understand (because they’ve never gotten to this level) that leadership pay is approximately 70% of the successful distributors pay.  In other words, most of their pay!

I was recently at an event where this was happening and “there was no energy in the room.” I’m not talking about the newbies that don’t have a clue about Network Marketing and the art of promotion. I’m talking about those Distributors that know the score and understands “all” the games.  Don’t you know that negative communication travels farther and faster than positive conversation?  People talk when they are pissed off.  You can’t believe the comments I’ve heard about this particular group lately.

You may be part of a group that have people who haven’t done the business for years show up and immediately they are being promoted.  The reason for this is of course is obvious (to get them back in the game) but if you are doing this to the exclusion of producers, and those that have always shown up and supported your check, the obvious question is why.  Start watching for the disconnects.  So and so is the best trainer and that’s why they are on stage at an event.  Or so and so (use to be) a Diamond Distributor.  That’s interesting…they are the best and they don’t do the business?  What happened–are they just confused?

Why are some organizations living in the past?  The newbies, always being promoted as the story goes, don’t even know who you are talking about.  In fact, that includes the founder of your company.  Who cares?

If you find yourself in this kind of organization stop accepting those sweet, polite, little smiles regarding your exclusion and move on.  You’re dealing with long-term losers who have forgotten “everything” they have ever preached and learned about Network Marketing.  And so, now they are just promoting themselves.  It won’t work for them or you so move on!

Unity and support is a two way street!
