When I have been confronted with an upset affiliate stating that they are going to quit because things are not working out for them or that the return on their efforts are not paying enough, I will do my best to talk with them to find out where the real problem is.
I will then check the affiliates VP ledger and their personal profile. Usually I will find that the affiliates have never made a financial investment or I find out that they are logging in only once or twice a week.
I will explain to the affiliate in the best professional manner that I can about how a business (any business) needs investments of money and time in order to succeed. And that these investments must be on a continuous bases.
I will explain to them that if they had a sporting goods store in town – they would have to rent or build the store – pay for electricity, and many other assorted fees along with stocking the store with inventory to sell.
Then I would explain to them about the hours the store would have to be open so customers can come and buy the goods that you bought and put in stock. If you are closed half the time your store would fail.
Most successful businesses start out in the hole and it takes them 3 to 5 years to make enough income to make a profit.
At this present time only 2% of the world’s population share 98% of the world’s money and 98% of the people must share the left over 2% of the money. Now it is estimated that by 2018 that 99.9% of the world’s money will be in the pockets of only .1% of the world’s people and everyone else will have to share in the lousy .1% of what is left over.
At this time I let them know that I am on my way to being one of those 2% at the top and that you are welcome to come along with me – I will help you all I can but I will not carry your load or work your business for you – You must decide that success is what you want and that you are going to be committed until you succeed
