Finding The Right Business Mentor For Your MLM Business

By Tracy D. Olson


Internet Business Mentor can be the key, the driving force to get you and your business up and running in a short period of time. The right mentor will save you thousands as you set up, continue to build your internet business. I will list a few things they should help you do. Leadership - be a 5%, one of the movers and shakers in the internet business. Information - have it, and be able to transmit it to you in many forms,one on one(best), go to meeting, phone, emails. Be consistent and timely.

At the end of the presentation, the big shots tell you to get with the person that invited you and join.Like most of us, who base decisions on emotion, you sign on the dotted line under your buddy Billy, (who only has a weeks worth of experience more than you) and has never owned a business in his life. You're all excited about your new business opportunity and are certain you'll be a millionaire in just a few months. You go out there clobbering all your friends and family over the head with your newfound business.

Listen if this was easy anybody could be good at it. Learn, execute, follow-up, Repeat. A business mentor is a person who did all the possible efforts, you plan to do or may plan at later stages. A business mentor will guide and show you the best possible ways to polish your skills, get to better ways of doing a business and will save you from scams and pit falls. So it is wise to get the help of a guru to save you most of your precious assets.

Kevin has gotten his training from a business mentor and leader, but he leaves out several key points when training Shelly, who in turn, leaves out a few points when training Billy. Who in turn, you guessed it, leaves out vital information when training you.Are you starting to see the problem with this scenario? Sound familiar at all?So, it starts out with Kevin who gets 100% of his info from his business mentor, but only passes on 50% to Shelly, who passes on only 25% to Billy, and by the time it gets to you, you've gotten about 10 to 12% of the information needed to correctly run your business. The big wigs that made the initial presentation aren't available to help, their usually too busy out promoting the business.

Provide you with emotional support. You're no longer in a job setting where you take orders from a boss. Therefore, you'd have no one to turn to for advice on what's your next task. Now that you're a business owner, the ball is in your court. Although you're alone, your entrepreneurial journey does not have to be desolate. Your mentor can fill the gap by providing you with emotional support. If you require a second opinion on a matter, he can provide you with the clarity required to move forward.

Small Business Development Centers (SBDCs) also offer access to no-cost experienced business mentors across the United States. SBDCs operate through academic institutions and state economic development agencies. In addition to no-cost consultation, SBDCs also offer low-cost training in a variety of business disciplinary areas.

Corporations are also making it possible for their employees to volunteer their time to mentor people looking to start and grow business ventures. This avenue of mentoring may be particularly useful where the volunteer mentor offers access to a broad industry-specific network or certain technology solutions that can help an up and coming entrepreneur tap new markets or operate more efficiently. MicroMentor, a nonprofit agency, is one example of this type of no-cost business mentoring. By visiting MicroMentor, you can search profiles of available mentors and work with one or multiple mentors to help you start and grow your venture.
