Trimming the Fat - Simplicity is the Mother of Duplication

Continuing with our topic from last week, let's talk about why stripping things down to the barest essentials is so important to the growth of your business.

As Randy Gage says, Network Marketing is a "business of teaching and training -- a business of duplication."  And when we're talking about the action steps of building a successful Network Marketing business, that's exactly what it is -- we teach and train our organization (or even just our personally sponsored distributors if you're just starting out) to duplicate what we've done to get to where we are.
So, to ensure that new distributors can learn and execute as quickly as possible, we must keep things as simple as possible.  Logic dictates that the simpler the steps, the more easily they're duplicated.  If you're the star of the show and you're the only one on your team who can do the presentation and close new prospects for example, then what you've effectively done is work yourself into a "full-time" Network Marketing job.

And of course that defeats the purpose doesn't it.  I for one got into the Network Marketing profession so that I don't have to work a job.

Look at your organization, look at your process and ask yourself, "Where can I trim the fat?"
