Network Marketing Failure/Quit Rate
All heard the statistics
We have all heard the statistics about the failure rate in Network Marketing. It is stated that it is somewhere in the range of 97% of people in network marketing fail. I believe that those numbers are accurate when it comes to the failure rate. When I look up the word failure and it’s synonyms the one word that is missing from that list is quit and when I look up the word quit and it’s synonyms the one word that is missing there is failure.
What Does that tell you
What does that tell you? It tells me they are not the same for one thing, but yet many people actually think they are the same. Failure and quitting are not the same and it needs to be understood that they are completely different. The word failure means lack of success or a person who does not succeed, the word quit means abandon, leave or stop doing something.
Look at failure rates
Some people will look at those failure rates and ask what is the point in trying when 97 plus people out of 100 fail. Again failure means lack of success, that tells me that something can be done to alter the results, its changeable. There are network marketing strategies and tips that people can adhere to that will turn that around in time if they just won’t quit.
Ninety-Seven Percent Quit
What about the 97% of people that join Network marketing that quit? It depends on ones perspective. My perspective and take on it is as long as you stay in the game you will eventually win. As soon as a person quits they are done, they abandon their dreams, they start to settle. If a person realizes that success is available in network marketing or any other business for that matter, they won’t quit. Once you understand success is attainable and that you just need to correct or adjust what you are or are not doing there is no reason to quit. It’s when people equate failure and quitting as the same that they have made a huge mistake. Mistakes can be corrected and failing can stop and quitting can become a thing of the past in a persons life if they understand what is required of them. Failing does not mean your are a failure, it just means you have not arrived yet.
Failure informs you of the need for change, it is not the sign to quit. Once you find what works and are consistent in staying true to form and are persistent you will one day arrive at the destination of success. If you quit there is not much that can be done unless you are willing to start again and the next time around discover what works. I believe in the saying that winners never quit and quitters never win. Your a winner so stop quitting.
