When I began forming my network marketing team of great business builders on a local basis I informed those considering the possibility that I was looking for a certain type of person and I actually only approached those who fit the criteria.

You see, you really don't want someone on your business building team who may be a drain of your energy and resources. So, regarding those whom I personally knew, I chose to make the opportunity available only to those who had at least two of these characteristics:

- DESIRE: You need a strong desire to start a business, with plans to go fulltime

- RESPECT: What I've seen and heard about you has boosted my respect for you.

- INTEREST: You have expressly shown an interest in learning and growing

- ATTITUDE: You have a great attitude towards life and work and you would do well in this endeavor and probably any other with a little direction.

The bottom line is these folks already exhibited winner qualities and were currently in professional and successful positions. It didn't really matter whether all, one or none of these leaders took me up on the offer at the time.

My plan was to build great business builders from the stock of great business builders and I was simply offering the opportunity to those whom I knew personally before going to the rest of the world by online marketing.

Since direct marketing is quite different from multi level marketing the quantity of the team is much less important than the quality of the team members.

Decisive Marketing

Now, you must of course teach these great business leaders the essentials of building great businesses online. The basic formula is:

- An automatic marketing system to promote the product or service

- A team working together so you can focus your time on your core strengths

- A solid product or service with significant profit levels so it can be marketed aggressively

But Mindset Is Still The Most Crucial...

Think about the qualities of any great business builder. Isn't it really more about mindset than anything else. Yes, we need knowledge of what to do and how to do it, but the most important elements in building any marketing team is that your team members have desire, respect, interest and attitude whether online or offline.

Then, of course, by combining these personal qualities with the three essentials that every team leader needs to provide for his team - a system, focus on strengths and a great product, then your team will grow naturally.

Oh, One More Thing!

Well, let's not forget to add that which I'm assuming my readers all know by instinct - hard work! Yes, it is a business; yes, there is a learning curve; yes there is a lot to learn especially if coming from the offline world to transition to the online world.

So, attitude isn't everything but let's face it - desire with a great attitude will take you a long way down the road. So, work with others who have these qualities to make your job a lot more fun as you build your network marketing team.
