One of the things that I have gotten asked is how you can know if someone is going to be good in network marketing or not. Obviously you don't want to waste your time with a prospect if they aren't cut out for this type of business and you don't want to look over someone who could be a network marketing rock star... so how can you tell if someone is going to be good or not?
Unfortunately there isn't a way to know if someone will be good or bad in any home based business. That is because it all really comes down to a few things. The first thing is how much do they want it. It's one thing to sort of want to make more money from home and it's another to really WANT it! If you have an intense desire to succeed in a home based business chances are you will be willing to take the extra steps needed to become really successful. Some people will claim that they want it really bad but their actions will show that they don't.
So it's really up to them. If they don't have a desire that is strong enough they won't do as well as someone who really wants it.
A lot of people don't realize that personality actually has very little to do with being successful. While a lot of people see someone with a big outgoing personality and think they would be great in a home based business that is actually not always the case. Personality matters a lot less than other things like desire and passion and motivation. You could give me the option of having 10 really loud, outgoing type A personalities on my team or having 1 or 2 people who might be more shy but have a really strong desire for success and I would take the motivated people all day long.
There is no way of knowing who will be good in a home based business and who won't. So don't ever look over anybody and don't count anyone out because you never know who your next big money maker is going to be.
