If you do really want to pursue your career as Network Marketer, you would need to find a good MLM sponsor. An MLM sponsor plays an important role as they are the person who will teach and build you to ensure that your career and business are on track. Choosing a correct sponsor is the most important decision you need to make in Network Marketing if you want to archive success. The big question is “What SHOULD an MLM sponsor do for their team and their personal recruits?
How Should Your MLM Sponsor Start You?
Your MLM Sponsor should start you with methods that have proven to work. Either they are methods that have been created by the person or has been learned from his upline or the company. These methods should be more
on the cheap/free side than the costly side. Why you ask? Because the lower cost methods are simply more easy to be duplicated as a good percentage of the people that join a home based business do not also want to spend a lot of money on advertising, etc.
When you join, your MLM sponsor should make an attempt to get a hold of you via phone/email and offer some suggestions to you and suggest a follow up communication. I tend to like to give some homework and then have a follow up call. If the person goes through the homework, I know they are at least somewhat serious and then we can start the process.
What if your MLM Sponsor Does not call you?
Here is what I want you to ask yourself: Are you a rep number in someone’s downline or are you a business owner? A business owner would not whine and complain that their mlm sponsor did not call them, they would pick up the phone and call the person. I highly suggest doing the same. Should a sponsor contact someone who had faith in them to sign up with them at least initially? Yes. Should they call them daily to cheer lead them, wipe their noses and tell them good morning? NO! I do NOT think it is the job of the sponsor to call their people daily, weekly or even monthly. If they are doing their job, which is to continue to recruit, train, handle three way calls and put together company events, they should ONLY have time for the people that are hungry enough to reach out to them.
Quick Do’s and Don’ts of Being a Top MLM Sponsor
They Should Always Return Calls and Emails to their team.
They Should NOT be tasked with calling each person they ever recruited to pump them up (the reps that are hungry should reach out to their sponsor and if they cannot get them, go higher in the upline).
They should NOT pitch another MLM to someone who had faith to join them in one.
They should NOT hitch their reps success on purchasing some expensive co-op, system, etc. Making something like that optional is one thing, making it mandatory to work with them is another.
They should have a system that is working that they share with new reps.
My overriding tone here is, if you are ever going to be a top earner in network marketing, you have to be willing to do it whether your mlm sponsor supports you or not. Now, for those that sponsor others, treat them good, they had faith in you to join you and that is very, very special!

I tend to not rush in to give advise at first. Sometimes I have been lucky to getting the attention of people who are ahead of me. I end up getting tips off them instead of the other way around.

You’re right, Ian. Sometimes the people you sponsor may be self-starters and already have a system that’s working for them. Asking them what’s working for them is a good way to get tips that you can then share with others that join your team. Thanks for your comment!
