Last weekend, I was fortunate enough to be a part of a small group that attended a presentation done by David Shores. 
David is a 30 year veteran of the Amway business who has achieved diamond status and is a well respected mentor in the industry. On a cool evening in Jamaica Jamaica, David invited us to his beautiful home in Kingston to talk about how to build successful legs in your business. Here are the main points…
- Be able to show the plan yourself
- You need to have people below you who can show the plan
- Success is 99% mental
- Don’t be judgmental towards anyone
- Always have a great, positive attitude
- Aim to sponsor 30 people (10 will get to work immediately, 10 will be temporary inactive and 10 will slack off completely)
- New sign ups need the right mental motivation and vision to start. This type of information is in inspirational books and CDs available for purchase almost anywhere. (My personal recommendations are Napoleon Hill’s “Think and Grow Rich” or Alvin Day’s “If Caterpillars Can Fly So can I”
- It is not when a new sign up registers, It is when they mentally start. Know the difference.
- Dealing with people is an art
- When speaking to people, your eyes should be saying “I love you”
- You should always be able to tell your down line what to do next
- Raise the level of persons you show the business plan
- Students and Unemployed people are not usually great MLM prospects
- If someone can’t afford to use the products for themselves, they are usually not a good prospect.
- Try to get all your legs at least 3 people wide and 4 people deep
- Be picky about who you let into your business
- Aim for 10 growing legs (growing legs meaning each leg is adding one person per week)
- Live by: Duplication–Unity–Harmony–Growth
