Why train your team?

When you start team building, part of the income that you earn from the business is generated from the sales that your down line team makes. For this income to grow and increase you need to spend quality time training and working with your team (and down line), so that you are constantly earning that additional income.

As a leader, it is important that you educate, motivate, coach and train your members to run a proficient profitable business. If your team is making money, than you will make money!

Summary

1. Educate: It is your job to educate your members on the company’s policy, code of ethics, marketing plan, products, and the FM opportunity and above all, how to duplicate the teams winning system. When your members are properly educated on all of this, they will have a more successful business.

2. Motivate: A good leader will work really hard to motivate their members to get out there and work the business. This motivation can come in the form of talks, conference calls, webinars, regular meetings and by offering incentives to your members when they reach certain business goals and challenges set by yourself.

3. Coach: I look at coaching as being a little different than training. For me, I like to ask all my members what is their why and what do they want to gain by being in the business - what are their goals?. Once I know this I can then tailor my coaching to each person’s individual needs and personalities. Coaching to me is offering my advice, education, training and experience to help guide them to their own individual success.

4. Train: All team leaders are responsible for training their members and this training is not offered as a one time deal or just at the beginning when someone joins your business opportunity. Training members is taking the Education to an entirely different level. Leaders are responsible to train their members on a ongoing basis.

That means training them on new policy changes, updates on sales specials, new ways on demonstrating products, making sure they are attending the team training webinars and new methods for recruiting. Training is something that is done continually and regularly with the members of your team.

When you spend quality time doing all of the above with the members you are responsible for, they in turn will be better business owners. This will pay off for you because the more successful your members are in their business, the more successful you will be in yours.
