EMPOWERED CONSUMERISM

Hi, thank you for the wonderful choice you have made to join us and for
creating time to read this orientation. This orientation will cover critical
topics that will help you get your business off the ground. The following
topics will be discussed:

• -Your “WHY.”
• -Goal setting
• -Time management
• -Branding
• -Rejection
• – The 7skills in MLM success (CIPFERE FORMULA)

So before we get started I would like you to understand a few things about
what is expected of you.

• Teachable.

You should have an open mind and should be willing to learn and implement
what you have been taught.

• Self-driven.

Having started your own online business, you should be responsible and
hold yourself accountable for how you run it.
Anything that doesn’t bring value to your life should be abandoned e.g.
wasting time either hanging out with your friends, watching movies, playing
games, and many other activities that don’t bring value to you.

Don’t get me wrong, and am not suggesting that you should stop having
leisure time, simply reduce the amount of time you spend on leisure
activities e.g. don’t spend more than 5hrs watching a TV show maybe watch
1 – 2 episodes per day instead of spending the whole day watching it.

• Personal Development.

In this business your inviter/up-line/sponsor will only give you about 20% of
the skills you’ll need to succeed in this business, the remaining 80% is on
you. The most effective way of accumulating 80% is by Personal
development.
Carrying out your research online about the industry of Network Marketing

You can also learn how to go about your business through mentors both
online and in-house mentors. (people who are succeeding in your company)

Reading books about Network Marketing

Attending your company’s training seminars

• Rejection.

In life, everybody has faced rejection in one way or the other. In this
business or any other business, you will face a lot of rejection.

The most common reasons for rejection are:

• Ignorance in the market


• Lack of awareness in the market
• Lack of trust in you may be because of results and how you brand
yourself and many other reasons.

So you should learn how to manage your expectations, have this in mind:
some will, some won’t, and someone else is waiting for the opportunity.

Kindly watch a video on YouTube by Jim Rhon about the parable of the
Sower.

One last thing you should get to your head is the fact that this is a business.
Therefore don’t expect any salaries.

Your income is dependent on your effort and the effort of the team you
build.

We will walk and work with you but we will never work for you

• YOUR WHY?

We all have a reason that drives us in life, your “Why” is that compelling
reason that drove you to join GIF.

• Some of your reasons could be:

1. -Earn a job replacing income


2. -Earn an extra income
3. -Pay your tuition fee
4. -Buy your car
5. -Change your neighborhood
6. -Build or buy a home
7. -Clear your debts
8. -Gain Time freedom
9. -Gain financial freedom

And many others. All these reasons are your dreams and should make you
focus, work smart, motivate you when business is tough, and motivate you
when everyone you know discourages you or doesn’t support what your
pursuing.

Your “WHY” should be your guide and rock as you are working out your
Network Marketing business.

NB: If you don’t have a compelling reason for joining this business, get one
and work towards it.

• Goal Setting.

Goals are very important because they are a breakdown of our dreams into
certain time frames that help us achieve our ultimate dream.
So you should set your goals in a SMART way. What is SMART?

Specific

Measurable

Achievable

Realistic

Time-Bound

Your goals should be categorized into short-term and long-term goals.

You can check how Brian Tracey puts it on Goal Setting.

• Time Management.

We all have 24hrs in a day to carry out our schedule or tasks we have set to
do in that day, so how you use or manage your time will be very crucial in
terms of generating income.
• How to use your time

School or work (the most hectic day you can spend in a class or work is 10hrs
in a day)

Sleep (sleep for 6hrs a day it won’t affect your health or your daily
performance)

Network Marketing business (dedicate at least 6hrs in a day to your


business, if you can add more time it would be an advantage to you)

And you have an extra 2hrs to study, relax and do other activities.

This is an example of how you can use your time depending on your
occupation.

At the start of each new business, you will have to sacrifice more time and
dedicate it to your business so that it can take off.

• Branding

Branding is crucial in any business because it’s an identity of who you are
and what you represent.

Branding is very critical as it will determine whether someone will or will not
join your business. Assuming you went to a butcher to buy meat. The meet is
well displayed and attractive, but the person selling to you is very dirty.
Would you buy the meet? I believe NOT. The same applies to your business,
there’s no second chance to make a first impression. So do it well your first
time
As a distributor, how you brand yourself will determine how well you market
and resell our products and the way the company is viewed by the market.

content, articles, testimonials of your business, and your

hurt your brand.

When you start your own business e.g. your restaurant or boutique you’ll
share it with your friends.

If it is a restaurant you would have invited all of your friends or the people
you know to come and eat at your place.
If it was a boutique selling clothes you would have invited all of the people
you know to come and buy clothes at your store.

When it comes to your business you should do the same whereby you
share/show the opportunity to all of your friends, family members,
workmates, and schoolmates so that they can be your first customers.

NB: As you are sharing your Opportunity with your inner circle, know
that not everyone will join your business. You should work with numbers
and the minimum number of people you should have referred is at least
150 people if you can do more it would be an advantage to you.

Your inner circle (people you know) should be invited by your up-line
because you being new to the business your friends might ask you questions
that you may not be in a position to handle.

prospects.

share what you have achieved.

achieve yours”
