All You Got To Do Is Find The Aces
Are you struggling with recruiting quality leaders into your business? Maybe you need to look at how you are presenting yourself and your business. If you are just starting out and have a full time job and are working your home business part time, don’t get stuck in a part time mentality or hobby mentality. Your home business has the potential to become a six figure annual turnover or more. You just have to get into that mindset. If your current employer were interviewing, he would have ajob description and be looking to recruit to that job position.
Likewise, for your home business if you are taking this anywhere near serious, do you even have any idea on the type of people you are looking for to join you and expand your company with you. The reason most home businesses fail is due to lack of recruiting leaders into their primary business.
Don’t feel you have to sign up just about anyone into your home business, be fussy with who you want. Treat your home business as if it were a million dollar empire. If you were running such an empire, you would want to be looking for the best. You would be looking for high quality leaders, people who are sure about themselves, what they want, where they want to be in the future, and the drive to get them there.
Now you may start out with ‘jokers’ who on the face of things look like they are going to be great leaders, but then a little further down the line they turn out to be just that’ jokers’, tire kickers. People who may drain your reserves if they become too needy, so you just got to keep going and keep turning over the cards, making those calls until you find the aces. Now in a pack of 52 cards you are only going to find 4 aces, but there is nothing stopping you turning over more than 52 cards, or adding more packs!
The odds of getting your aces quickly are 13/1. With those odds you need to phone or contact a fair number of people before finding a strong leader. Therefore finding a strong person with good leadership skills is worth the wait and appropriate screening to ensure you have the right person in your team, rather than signing up someone who happens to show some interest, but does not necessarily have the right level of commitment to working on starting up a home business.
So here’s the thing with the recession and the economy at an all time low, there are a lot of managerial type people, supervisors and business owners who are tired of the corporate world, and who want to look for a totally different lifestyle or business to get into. Let’s face it these people are used to leading others, managing and taking charge, making quick and complex decisions, and being committed to doing what it takes to become a success.
SO if you take enough time to find your aces, you can build a strong team of committed people who will look for like minded individuals to join their teams.
