My back ground is engineering. I left school and at 19 years old started working for a large car manufacture in my hometown, Swindon.

About a year later after starting I join an engineering apprenticeship and started my new career. It took me just over 4 years of exams, training and generally getting covered in grease and oil and I finally completed the course.

I worked in the weld shop and had my own section that I would support production, keep the line running and maintain the machinery. It could be a pressured job, the company would lose around £10,000 per minute for each line stop.

I trained on the job, picking up new skills as time went by as well as skills picked up in the class room and other training courses.

After a few years I got promoted and was in charge of my own shift and the maintenance structure and budget of £300 million worth of equipment.

We still got apprentices but they would spend the first 2 years in the class room learning theory, and basic mechanical and electrical skills. They would then be sent out to different parts of the factory where they would finish their training on the shop floor.

Most didn’t know one end of a spanner from another. We would have to train these guys from scratch as they had no experience in working under those kinds of conditions.

They were 2 to 3 years behind me when I was at their level. Now I’m not saying that theory is not important, it is but there must be a fine balance between theory and on job training.

How does this fit in the network marketing, well I believe it’s very much the same. When you start out in this industry it’s like starting a new job as an apprentice. The big difference is it’s down to you to make it work.

You will have support from your upline (hopefully) and there is tons of help on the internet if you know where to look. You will not have anyone telling you what to do and checking up on you so you must learn to work for yourself and plan your time. You also have to have a very big “My Why” to succeed and know where you are going.

However with network market it is an on the job training affair in every sense of the word. There is no point you sitting there reading books, learning new things on the internet and after 2 years start your network marketing career without putting any of that into practice in those first 3 years.

You learn as you go along. You make mistakes and learn from them, you have success and learn from it. And the best thing is you never have anyone tell you what to do, when to do it and how to do it. You learn at your own pace and learn what you want to know and are interested in.

Read new things and put them into practice. The more you do this the more your confidence and self belief will grow and that will come out in the energy you give off to people.

So if you’re not taking action, if you think you’re not ready then start taking action today. You are ready and the world is waiting for you.

Start your blog, build your list, develop relationships with your list and help them build their business. You can start doing this the day you start your network marketing career and you could make a full time income within 2 years.

The guys that joined me as an apprentice were of very little use for the first year or so but after some training they began to make a difference. But for me it those wasted years where they could have been putting into practise the things they were learning were wasted.

Most had forgotten 80% of the stuff they had learn because they were not using it on a daily basis. When you do things a few times you will remember them.

Still not sure what to do or need help then fill out the form on the right and I will get you on your way.
