LifePath Unlimited – Finding a Team and Mentor
So you’ve done your research on LifePath Unlimited, or maybe another network marketing or home business opportunity, and are now ready to make the big decision about starting your own business. As you are about to join with a mentor or team, make sure you consider a few important things to make sure you receive the support and training you will need to build a successful business.
In the LifePath Unlimited business, many teams offer a customised training for their team members. So while you will be joining the same company as your fellow associates, the training and guidance you receive may differ.
Here are some questions you can ask your potential mentor to learn about the structure of their team, to know what to expect, and to assess whether their approach fits what you are looking for:
1. About the training:
What is covered in the training; what does it involve; how it is delivered; how long does the initial training lasts for; what ongoing training is provided?
2. About availability:
When do you work (you want to know when they will be available for you); who else can provide assistance if you are not available; how many people are you coaching at this moment?
3. About philosophy:
What is your approach to the business (e.g. casual, systematic, collaborative, etc); what is the most important aspect of the business to you; how involved are you within the company’s community; what are your likes and dislikes about this business?
4. About the team:
How do team members connect with each other (e.g. is there a shared site for networking); what is the team support like; what resources are shared between team members; will people who join my team have access to the same resources I have access to?
5. About marketing resources:
Which marketing resources to you provide to your team members; what are the marketing strategies you focus on; do you provide website templates and/or hosting; can you do the marketing for me or find me leads while I am learning how to do it myself, so that I can be in a money making position right from the start?
You may also be asking yourself this important question: “Should I choose a senior member in the company, someone who has been doing it for a long time?” The answer is ‘not necessarily’! In fact, as you have read in the previous section, there are things far more important than status in choosing a mentor! Leadership, resourcefulness, a positive mindset, diligence, the right approach and availability are the main factors which should influence your decision. Also, with the right mentor should come a supportive and resourceful team with members who contribute with their various experience and skills, and from which you will also draw on to create you own success!
Lastly, starting your own network marketing business will also place you in a mentoring position, so while your team will be there to support you, think about how you will answer the questions outlined in this article as a mentor!
