Everyone is an expert these days, but how did they get there?

Have you ever noticed that every where you turn someone is there to tell you how you should do whatever it is you are doing? Whether you want them to or not! They tell you how to dress, they tell you how to eat, they tell you to get some place and then they tell you how to get back. It's enough to make me scream.

Well online network marketing is no exception!

Everyone out there trying to build a marketing business is looking for people to sell to. And why would people buy from them? Because they are an expert!

You buy a system from an expert, who tells you that you have to "position" yourself as an expert. Please note that I did not say "become" an expert. Being an expert is not really necessary, it is only the "appearance" of being an expert that counts.

Don't wait, just get out there, write some articles, build your web of influence. Don't worry about your content, it doesn't have to accurate, just prolific.

So you do what they say, they are the expert right? But why are they the expert? What makes them an expert? Do they know what they are talking about or just "duplicating" their "expert"!

This is what gives network marketers a bad name. This is what gives sales people in general a bad name.

Well I am relatively new to this business and I say it doesn't have to be this way!

I have been a medical office manager for more than 20 years. I have managed practices with as few as 1 location and 3 employees, to practices with 4 locations and 40 employees.

I empower my employees to think for themselves and manage their respective responsibilities with the understanding that I am always there for them. They can come to me at any time for advice or direction. While I am the expert with anything to do with that office, making decisions on the overall inner workings, they are the key to my success.

While this may not have given me expertise in network marketing, it sure taught me a thing or two about dealing with people. And from my experience, people are very understanding of someone who can admit that they don't know everything but will do their best to get them the answers they need. On the other hand, they have no tolerance or forgiveness for being lied to.

So I won't lie to you either.

Why am I telling you all this? Because I do believe that there is a real need for people out there that can really help. PEOPLE THAT TRULY ARE EXPERTS!

And I am here to tell you that I may not classify myself as an expert yet, I know I have a lot to learn. But I do know what side is up in the network marketing world.

I also know that I have found a few "true experts" out there and I am working diligently to learn everything they can teach me.

I am watching tutorials, attending webinars, and reading material on the subject.

I am experimenting with systems and putting my time and money on the table in order to find the right combination of things that work for me. And hopefully for anyone that wants to take this journey with me.

I'm not an expert yet, but I will be!

It's the way I run my medical offices and it is the way I run my network marketing business.

Join me on my journey to the top!
