"Hey upline, I quit!"
Those are words you never want to hear when dealing with your online business. We all hear about the 95% who quit, and as an upline in your organization, it is up to you to keep this from happening. I want to give a few tips to help keep your downline motivated, informed, and focused on their business. If they quit, not only do they lose, but so do you.
First off, you have to make this venture personal (not just for yourself). If you are too focused on conversions, articles, PPC's, etc...you are going to lose a valuable asset in your home business. Your downline. You have to communicate to the people who are helping to create your success. As an upline it is your responsibility to teach others what you have done. Why would you not do that? Emulation of success breathes even more success.
OK upline, have you sent a broadcast or postcard to the people in your groups letting them know that you are there for them? Are you giving them vital information on how to grow their business? Now, I do not want to hear, "I send them emails but they never respond." Maybe they don't. Maybe they do not have you on their acceptable email list. Ask them to send you a response stating they do. If they do not respond, at least you sent the information and keep sending it. Also, get them to join forums or social groups so they feel like they are part of the team.
The more you send, the better chance you have to keep someone in your group. As an upline you can make or break a person who is seriously thinking of bailing out. When someone gets the impression that you care about their success, this can be a turning point for them. For example, say you have someone who is on the fence and is unsure if they want to quit the online business or leap over it running toward financial freedom. As their personal upline, do you let them fall or do you light the fire under them that causes the chain reaction within them that makes them the next online business guru?
The power of one email or even a phone call can make that person in your downline the next Internet millionaire. Just one. What if you duplicate this over and over because you take 2 minutes a few days a week to let your people know that are there for them? Remember, if you are at the top of the totem pole, the only way you stay there is to keep the others in the line stable. "Hey, upline I quit" should never be heard if you do everything you can to help your downline find their groove.
Teach them to do exactly what you do. The sooner you erase the "quit" mentality, the more growth you will have in the future.
