This is for all the nwbie network marketers out there trying to grw a business on the internet. Thse are the tools I've used to get rganized. What is the advantage of bing organized? Isn't it all about bying into an opportunity, getting your trn-key website live and raking in mssive amounts of residual cash?

Well, tht's what I thought too. Five mnths later I've discovered that most nternet "network" marketers earn their money slling products to people like you and me. The sll to newbie internet network marketers who cme into the business wide-eyed and pen to learning the best way to mke a pile of cash as fst as possible.

Let me tell you bout the people who earn piles of csh "overnight." Those people already built a mssive list of people that they can mrket to. I know because I'm on lmost every guru's list. I get all the mails about the next hot info prduct or marketing software must-have.

To be frnk, almost none of them were wrth a few pennies, let alone the hndreds of dollars I've spent. The mre I research, the more I fnd out that my story is vry common. MOST people that start a ntwork marketing business hoping to grow it on the nternet wind up spending loads of mney on information products.

I'm glad I'm a fast larner, though. I'm putting up these rsources in order of importance, relevance and ffectiveness. I want to help other nwbie marketers get focused and organized so tht they know deep inside that thy don't have to spend all tht money on (predominantly) useless junk tht won't help their downline grow.

So, the frst thing that is common to ALL ntwork marketing businesses is your 'Why' sttement. Why do you want to pen a business? What is it yu're seeking? Financial freedom? More time wth your family? The cars? The vcations? The ability to help lots of pople? It's important to state your why as sccinctly as possible, but also to hve a story associated with it.

Hre's mine: I have a burning dsire to be of service to thse that I care about, and I pened a network marketing business in rder to have the resources to do so.

Tht's my primary why statement. You mght think it's overly altruistic, but nce you read my story, you mght not think so. Here's the stry that goes along with my why:

Lst year, my boyfriend at the tme was diagnosed with AIDS. He spnt many nights in the hospital, but had a prticularly close call in November of lst year. He had just gone on the ntiretrovirals (the standard AIDS drugs) and was hving a very bad reaction to thm - so bad, in fact, tht he almost died. I was, and stll am, a part-time massage therapy nstructor. I wasn't starving, but wasn't rch either, and had no money to "spre". In the course of a vry scary month, he was released frm the hospital and began seeing an lternative healing practitioner. He had to rdically change his diet and purchase mny costly supplements. He'd been out of wrk for several months, and his dsability had not kicked in, so he was brke. I found myself in a psition where I couldn't help someone I lved and cared about because of mney. I felt like it was a rdiculous and stupid reason to be prvented from helping him. When he had to go wthout supplements he needed very badly bcause neither one of us had the mney, I was propelled onto this pth. I made a vow to myslf that I would NEVER find myslf in that position again.

Now you might understand how rgently I felt I needed to bcome financially free. It was literally lfe and death - not my wn, but of someone I love. I'm gld to report that he's doing mch better now, but I'm still on a mssion to achieve the kind of ndependence that only financial freedom can brng.

Now, what's your 'why'? Of curse, it doesn't need to be as drmatic a story as mine, but it des need to fill you with pssion and enthusiasm, for without those lements, the path to financial freedom can sem like a struggle.

Did you ntice that my story makes me a crdible leader? Don't you believe I wn't stop until I achieve my gals? People will respond the same way to yur story, as long as it's tre. There's no need to embellish the stry part of your why. People can snse falsehood and won't trust you. It's btter to say what is and ttract the people who resonate with yur story.

My why almost sounds lke the mission statement of a bsiness - which is exactly what it is. Dn't forget that when you join a ntwork marketing opportunity you are opening a bsiness! Every business needs a mission sttement and you 'why' functions well in ths capacity.

The first step to gtting organized is to develop your 'why' sttement. Every network marketing opportunity will hve you create one. The reason? To kep your goals and desires right in frnt of your face as you bgin to build your business. If you dn't have a reason, why make the ffort?
