"Getting started in MLM may be confusing. Perhaps you are unsure how to begin. The best way to start is with the training provided by your company, which should give you an overview of the company, products and company policies. Of course, your upline should be willing to help you out if at all possible, but there are times when you need to work by yourself if they are not available locally.

You must take responsibility for your own business at all times, rather than relying on others or assuming that someone else can build your business for you. Earning commissions and then residual income is a challenge that is shared by all team members.

The skills that you have to learn include:

Recruiting others to join your network. You may be a member of an upline but find there are several people above you. You can also convince other people to become members of your downline. The first task is to build your list of interested prospects. Rather than chasing after leads, it is best to have others who are already interested to contact you for information. That may be easier said than done. Rather than take a direct approach when getting acquainted with new business contacts, it is best to take an interest in others and listen to what they have to say about their goals. Show interest in by asking questions to draw them out. At first you may also wish to begin selling some products to earn commissions on the sales. Again, rather than bombard others with information, engage in conversations to learn about them and what they need. Focus on building a relationship first.

Finding the best candidates to join your team. Experience with help you to identify those contacts who would be a potential business partner. You must become an expert in discerning to whether or not a person is some you would like to have as a potential business partner. Reach out to others through social media sites and attending business networking events and job fairs.

Coaching your downline so that they will be able to learn the best ways to succeed. Share helpful resources and encourage their efforts. As your team grows, it means that as the leader, you will earn more commissions from their product sales as well as your own. Thus, you will be responsible to teach your members the skills they need to succeed, so that they will not become discouraged.

Mastering the art of being a team player. You are not only a leader but a member at the same time. You should set an example, so be sure that you acquire all the skills necessary for your MLM team succeed. You must spend time learning the skill set required and practice to improve your abilities. Work on your own self development and become a master communicator.

Multi Level Marketing can be a tedious task for someone who doesn't invest time in their own self development. But if you are serious about being in the network marketing business, it is a must for you to master these basic skills.
