Network marketing is as much about growing yourself through learning and developing your leadership skills as it is about growing your downline. In a business that revolves around attracting, inspiring and motivating an all volunteer army, leadership is key. If you want to be someone that others follow voluntarily, you must first become the type of person that others will voluntarily follow.
Taking time out of your day to read personal development books, visit informational sites, view educational videos and listen to audio programs won't expand your business, but it will expand your ABILITY to build your business. These activities allow you to learn from the mistakes and successes of others rather than having to learn the hard way. If you have any recommendations for additional books please send them to me at viralfitness@yahoo.com, I will review them; if they are good, I will put them on the list!
The absolute FIRST book that I believe every aspiring network marketer should read is:
"Your First Year in Network Marketing" by Mark Yarnell
Buy a used copy off amazon and start learning! You might think you are short on money but investing a few dollars in this book will save you from making hundreds of mistakes that will cost you a thousand times the value of the book. When you buy a book, you buy expertise; books (when coupled with well directed action) are a shortcut to success!
