Most people get started in their business and think because they have an upline who helps train them, that the MLM training should stop there. I tell you from personal experience that is a big error in judgment. Any one can claim to be a MLM Consultant. I consider a person a MLM Consultant when they suggest to me more effective ways to explode my primary business that will work. Not everything your upline coach or mentor is teaching you my work for you. So it’s up to you to seek out a MLM Consultant that will teach other effective ways to build your business other then what your upline or mentor is teaching. Their are many ways to build a successful network marketing business.

A MLM Consultant must currently be building their own MLM business and have experience and a great record of success. Maybe your upline is teaching you how to make cold calls to a list of leads. Find a MLM Consultant that will teach you other ideas to build your business. For example I teach people how to use the Internet to build their business. I have done the cold call thing and did very well at it. However that was back then. I never felt it was duplicable for most people to do. A MLM Consultant should be teaching you all the different ways to build your network marketing business that he possibly knows. Then you take what he knows and apply it. If it works, Great! If not then start using other ideas the MLM Consultant may be suggesting to you.

When I first got started in my network marketing business, all I ever did was buy leads from lead companies and cold call them. However that was the only activity, I was doing to build my business. Then I found someone that taught me some eye opening ways to explode my network marketing business offline and online. I have been applying those ideas ever since. It has done wonders for my business. I simply became a student of MLM training and now I am considered to be by many, a MLM Consultant. I guess the people that say this are all the people I consulted in the past who have seen great success in their network marketing business as well. I like to think of myself as someone who has paid the price for success. Now I just assist others, so they don’t face the same challenges I did.

If you are looking to become a MLM Consultant also, then I suggest that you be your own leader and learn what you have to, so you can share your knowledge and success with others. Remember, it good to listen to your upline or who ever is training you, but always be a leader and take responsibility for your own network marketing business and learn what works for you and most importantly, what will work for others. The more duplicable, something is the better off you will be. When you find great MLM training or a great MLM Consultant then make sure you make yourself very teachable and coachable and take massive action.

Many Coaches and Consultants experience the “feast or famine, chicken or feathers” ups and downs in income – they’re either out there selling, or they’re delivering. This results in a yo-yo income. They have to deal with busy times and quiet times and increasing competition, and, because they’re selling time, they have limited income earning capacity. Many clients regard the consulting or coaching service as a luxury that can be terminated as soon as cash flows get tight. In addition, the popular perception of coaches and consultants leaves a lot to be desired, which is quite understandable, given the fact that many who use this label are about as valuable as a rotten peach on a busy sidewalk.

How do I know this? I was a consultant for eighteen years. And I’ve specialized in Joint Ventures for small and medium businesses for nineteen years. The solution to increasing your coaching or consulting business as well as income from other sources, while at the same time differentiating yourself from the herd, is Joint Ventures. It’s a great fit and a great complement to any coach or consultant’s business. Use your insight and communication skills to create lucrative JV’s. Have the money and the time to enjoy it, as well as the luxury not to rely on your income from consulting or coaching. This is exactly what I did. I no longer sell my time as a consultant, but this information has worked for me for eighteen years and it will work for you.

First, understand that you do not have a 100% profit margin, which you do have from Joint Ventures. Second, know that you cannot possibly be all things to all men. Third is the hardest – getting rid of that giant ego. I think ego is the enemy of coaches and consultants. Business is not about sales or being well known – it’s about bottom line, after tax PROFIT. You have the ability to cut through the BS and guide and direct people. You can gain their trust. You are a good communicator and you have an understanding of business and human nature. These are very powerful skills and tools in the hands of a Joint Venture Broker.

If my doctor called me last week and informed me that he had a great deal on heart bypasses, I would get worried. Instead, he examines me and points me in the direction of a solution or relief. That’s real business. “Find a need and meet it.” In a room of 20 “Business Networking” people, not everyone wants a coach. But they all have needs, hopes and dreams. If you’re there to make money by helping people, why not simply link these people, be they clients or prospects, with the solution to their needs and get paid for it? When they want a new car, why try to sell them coaching, instead of introducing them to a good realtor and getting paid 20 – 50% of her commission? Easy money, no time, no risk, 100% margin. Think about it.

Business consultants can make a lot more from triangulating JV deals than selling their time. Become a “Toll Gate” – something like Bill Gates. Create solutions that pay you well. Leverage other peoples’ time, resources, money and access. Something like Ari Onassis. Think about that! You can find more information at http://www.jvwisdom.com.

Having worked in the Catering trade for some years, within that time I would have never thought of calling for help from a consultant. Why you ask well its very simple really, I thought they would be very expensive, take up to much of my time, I had loads of good ideas of my own and the main reason would be I had my pride.

However that’s not the case with a catering consultant, it’s certainly not the case with Complete Catering Advice the company I set up over 4 years ago in France. I would visit friends within the trade and help them where I could, friends within the UK and France. I enjoyed helping them and seeing their profits increase was even better, it should be said we had great fun, and that’s just how it should be.

When hiring a Consultant try and get the first meeting FREE, we offer this to all our clients no matter how far away. You should know that they can help you and that you have a good working relationship with the consultant. You should also try and make sure that the person you are meeting will be your consultant, there is no point in meeting and bonding with someone that’s not going to be doing the work with you. Try and find out a little about the company they work for ask them if you can contact past clients to get references. Introduce them to the staff and see how the consultant handles the staff, if they spend time with them then your on to a winner that person cares, if they are more interested in you then that person is selling not caring. Try and remember that the consultant is there to help you make more money and give you more time to do the things you want to do in life, like holidays etc.

Once you’ve had that meeting give it a few days and see if they follow up on the meeting, take note that if it’s the person you had the meeting with. If it is and they were interested with the staff then they care if it’s not that person well you guessed it their selling. You want someone that is going to care about the out come of the contract and will be there on the phone at any time with a helping hand. We always spend a day working within your business, trying to work in most areas.

You should try and remember that the consultant isn’t there solely to make you more money, they are also there to streamline your working practice, setting operations into place that will save you money over time. Try not to think of the pound signs that you are going to make a consultant isn’t a miracle worker, they are a person just like you. However they should have the ability to see an opportunity and market it also see where things can be streamlined.

So it’s not as scary as you think and it shouldn’t cost you an arm and a leg, over the scale of time. I hope that you can now feel a little more comfortable picking up that phone and getting some answers that will take your business to the next level, your business can never stop growing there is always room for growth.

Wishing you all success.

Many times over the last two decades I have grumbled under my breath in the presence of clients:

“Move over! Let me do it for you!”

But I’ve stopped myself from overtly saying it, believing there is an occupational divide between those who advise and those who execute.

My clients might have been struggling to make appointments over the phone, flubbing every other line, testing the patience of listeners, while thinning a valuable database of prospects, and I could have grabbed the phone and glibly gabbed for a few seconds and have secured the meeting they were seeking.

“See, that’s how it’s done!” I could have bellowed. (Isn’t it the Zen folks that claim “direct pointing” is the best way to instruct?)

But then, in truth, I’d be handing them a fish instead of teaching them to fish. And they’d be very likely to ooh and ah and say, “Gee, I could never be as good as you are!” which is not exactly empowering to them.

Migrating from giving advice or running a training program to taking on the duties of a manager is known in some circles as “Blood and Guts Consulting” because it’s not nearly as tidy or painless as mere suggestion-making.

It is especially tempting to do in the following scenario.

Let’s say you have trained everyone to work differently, more productively in handling customer service opportunities, but instead of flipping the switch, indicating it is time for CSR’s to change, to abandon the old ways, managers are timid about enforcing the new protocols.

What then?

One of the key differences between a consultant or a coach and a manager is the latter has the power, as well as the responsibility to say “You MUST do this because it is PART OF YOUR JOB NOW.”

A consultant or coach can’t get away with this because he cannot hire or fire or compensate or otherwise make life easier or harder for his reports, because he has no reports.

Moreover, it is likely that the consultant reports to more than one person, himself, and that he is partly dependent on maintaining the good will of those he has trained and advised because they’ll be filling out evaluation forms, happily giving positive references to future prospective clients of his, or being mysteriously unavailable to respond to their inquiries.

It would seem to be an intractable problem, but there is a solution.

The consultant can sign-on as something more, as an Interim Manager, or as a Project Manager, seek and be given some of the powers I have mentioned above.

Senior management can say: “Gary is here to help us to improve in this area and he’ll have all appropriate authority to set the direction and implement new methods, to hire, fire, evaluate, and even to compensate. We expect and require full cooperation and we’re determined to make this project work. We’re behind it 100%”

Unfortunately, senior managers don’t introduce consultants or training and development programs in this manner. They’re more likely to say: “We’ve hired a consultant to look at how we do things and to make recommendations. Along the way, he’ll be running some classes, and we hope you’ll help to make his time with us productive.”

As you can tell, there’s absolutely no commitment in that approach. It enables senior managers to assume a wait and see posture, while undercutting the consultant’s credibility and clout.

Too often, this inadvertently seals the fate of the consultant’s project, consigning it to less than optimal impacts.

Should you take on more responsibility and make that passage from the somewhat tranquil waters of consulting, training, and coaching to the whitewater thrills and spills of management responsibilities?

It’s worth trying, but prepare yourself for a very different experience, process, and set of satisfactions.
