When you start building your business, that requires you to build a team to be successful. It’s extremely important to train your team members the right way and set the rules early on. One thing that many people who are new to this industry get confused about is helping and enabling or doing things for their teammates. In the long run, they not only hurt themselves, but they also hurt their teammates.
It is important to keep in mind that you should spend a lot of your time and energy working with your team members teaching, encouraging, and showing them step by step what to do. Because as I mentioned before, success will be proportional to your success. That one of the best things about this industry is that you can take advantage and have a team of people working and achieving the same goal together.
However, the problem with most coaches and leaders in this industry is that most people don’t know where to draw the line between helping and teaching and enabling and just doing things for their teammates. What you should be doing is pointing your people to the places where they can find the information for themselves instead of just setting it up for them. By learning this way, they will be much more likely to retain the information and be better informed to do the same for their future teammates.
Don’t spend your days setting up capture pages for your teammates, calling all your leads, setting up your auto-responder… tell them where the e-books and tutorials are, show them how to make a call. It’s fine to make calls for them at first, but there is a point where you should cut them off whether they think they’re ready or not. Even better, set up a system like my Global Resorts Network Success University where they can study for themselves.
The best way they are going to learn is by immersing themselves in the process. Like if you wanted to learn Spanish, for example, you would earn much more by moving to a Spanish-speaking country where you are forced to speak Spanish than by going to the local community college and learning there or, even worse, just having someone follow you around and translate. for you.
It’s okay to provide direction to your team, but be sure to draw the line between teaching and empowering them.
