Develop Your Inner Circle — Dream Horizon

CHAPTER 01

Develop your inner circle

One of my first pieces of advice to a new partner who wants to build seriously is this: Develop your inner circle.

I mean three to eight people in your downline who are at least as committed to success as you are. The size also depends on how many legs your compensation plan requires. But identify your first three as quickly as you can.

Performance here means productive action. Not wishful thinking. Not talking. Not daydreaming.

These partners can grow into your strongest leaders. You commit your valuable time to them. They commit to working closely with you, with the same energy and pace.

You take responsibility together, build your infrastructure and share a vision. These people do not slow you down. They move with you.

CHAPTER 02

Your power source on the way to the top

Your inner circle helps you master the many challenges ahead. You are real partners, sharing a common interest: success.

You have an upline too. Learn how their support can help you build. But much of your motivation, drive and strength will come from the ambitious people beside you. With them, you plan, act and win.

In my career, I built two substantial global organisations with tens of thousands of partners and significant incomes. I could never have done that alone. Not even close.

Nobody builds something like that alone. Successful networkers have strong leaders in their organisations. Some work closely with them for years. Others become highly independent. Both can be a driving force behind the business.

CHAPTER 03

Lonely wolves do not make it

If you have recently started, begin “Digging for Gold”. Look for the people who can become your inner circle. Make strong, mutual commitments.

Lonely wolves do not make it in network marketing. You need fellow players.

Once you have found them, develop a clear strategy together. Then act on it. Do not let every obstacle stop you again.

All the best, Sven
