The Rocky Series are some of my favorite movies. I was watching Rocky IV which is the one where Rocky fights the Russian, Ivan Drago after his long time boxing partner Apollo dies in a boxing match against him. During the movie there is a video clip with a song titled  No Easy Way Out. I found this song to be very motivating and reminded of being determined to overcome the struggles I have gone through to have success in my Network Marketing business. I have decided to share with you this video Clip which will help motivate you in your Network Marketing business.

It is important to have patience when building your network marketing business. Many Network Marketers Get into this industry and within the first 90 days quit since they are not getting the results they expected. You have got to understand that you have to be patient to learn new skills and understand that you are not going to become a millionaire overnight.

I just listened to a conference call from Todd Falcone. He was talking about some of the things that you should avoid like the plague in Network Marketing. Here are 25 Things that he said you should avoid doing at all costs.

1. Talking Down to People

2. Exaggerating Earnings (AKA Lying)-This could get you in trouble with the FTC

3. Ridiculous Product claims – Claiming that a product will cure a disease when It really doesn’t. This could also get you in trouble with the FTC.

4.Don’t Play Money Games -This Includes Cash Gifting which is illegal.

5. Don’t be a hypster

6. Don’t Jump from company to company-Pick a horse and ride it.

7. Don’t Lie about anything

8. Don’t Cross Recruit

9. Don’t make any guarantees you can’t back up – Don’t say that you will put all the heavy hitters in someone’s downline for example.

10. Don’t flake on appointments

11. Don’t Screw up on Three way calls. Learn how to do a three way before actually doing one.

12.Don’t align yourself with people with bad raps

13. Don’t put out content with massive typos- Make sure that you use spell check before sending out emails, posting blogs, etc.

14.Don’t be the Chaser – View this video to find out what people do when you chase them with your opportunity.

15. Stay Away From Cheesy Advertising

16. Don’t Bash Competition

17. Don’t Be a Pusher

18.Don’t Be a Portfolio Marketer – Very few people do well with multiple deals. Once again, just focus on one company.

19. Don’t Reinvent the Wheel – Follow what successful people are doing and you will end up duplicating. This business is about duplication and following what successful people are already doing.

20. Stay away from Social Media Stupidity.

21. Don’t be a quarter horse in a one mile race. Go all the way and finish what you started.

22.Don’t Be a flaky now show egotistical sponsor

23. Don’t live on Fantasy Island – You want to constantly be recruiting new people to your organization. Your Down line will duplicate what you do. If you are constantly growing the business, your down line will more than likely do the same thing. But if you end up slacking off, your downline will probably do the same thing.

24. Don’t be ill prepared.

25. Don’t be crooked

If you avoid those twenty five things like the plague, then you will more than likely have success in network marketing and stay out of trouble.
