When people in business share their stories, they talk extensively about how the mentoring helped them succeed. For some others, it is the struggles they had to face because there was no one to support them. A mentor figure has a crucial role in the growth of a business. In my initial time in the QNET business, I actively looked for people who could support me. I had multiple people to provide me training, walk me through the process and motivate me during challenges.
A recent study suggests that almost 70 per cent of women from different careers do not have a person to provide professional support. Luckily, with QNET direct selling, I had successful business owners to support me to become a business leader. From teaching me the basics of marketing to giving me insights on how to survive uncertainty, they taught me numerous things that are valuable in business. Mentoring supports a young business aspirant to learn and grow in business. That makes mentorship a noble work. The truth is that only a successful individual can provide you with insights to become a business owner. The uncertainty and risk in business raise a mentor’s responsibility on a business owner. The good news is that a person will return this favor to the team’s new members once they become powerful individuals in direct selling.
Mentors are the person one can always go to when having doubts and questions. Figuring things by oneself is good, but it comes at a higher cost in business. Considering the risk, it is better to go to an experienced individual and ask them for their help. In QNET, I was never declined by a senior business leader when I was looking for help. Go to people who are happy to help and, in a position, to give great advice.
It’s about the growth of the network. In direct selling, the growth of one individual business can benefit others in the network. So, being a mentor to new people can be mutually beneficial. Supporting others in the business will help the mentors’ growth in the QNET business.
There is something very much exciting about mentorship in the direct selling business. That is, a person gets to return the favor they received. There will be mentors ready to support a person in the early days of business and throughout. At some point, the person will be in a position in the business where they can support other new members. It is beneficial and a noble act to return the support and kindness one received from the business mentors.
Mentors are an absolute blessing when it comes to developing business skills. This couldn’t be any truer for people without any professional business degree. Direct selling is accessible to everyone because they have a dedicated group of successful business individuals to support. The core business skills like communication, marketing, networking, and management can be developed while doing the business. It is made easier by the kindness of the business leaders or mentors.
Mentoring is considered an art. It is the art of teaching and sharing knowledge. Mentors are an excellent source of knowledge. It is the first and foremost thing needed to become a powerful person in business. Mentoring gets its significance from the fact that it never fails to spread knowledge and give insights.
Mentors can help one build a business network. As a direct seller, success is directly connected to the performance in network marketing. Mentors who have already gone through these stages are now role models who can give great advice and suggestions to develop network. They will introduce you to new business people and help you build strong business relationships.
Mentors give honest feedback on one’s performance. There can be mistakes in marketing meetings and presentations, especially in the early days in business. A mentor will correct it and give feedback that will help to improve productivity. Honest feedback can play a crucial role in business. It will help a person notice mistakes, learn from them and avoid them.
Making business strategies and setting goals is not an easy task. However, it has a binding effect on the performance. Mentors can aid in setting goals for profit, time management, network growth and more. In the initial stage, they will also support a person in creating a strong vision and business plan.
You can go to the mentors during trouble in business. Direct selling business is not just about retail products. The responsibility as a businessperson does not stop at being an intermediary between the company and customers. As the network in business grows, the work and challenges also get bigger. Mentors can help during any struggle. There are certain challenges every direct seller goes through; it can be rejections and false allegations. Thankfully, mentors are people who have already survived many kinds of trouble. Their expertise in dealing with trouble can help a person overcome any challenges in business.
A chance to become a mentor is a significant moment for any business person. It means to return the favor a person received, not to the same people, but to new business people who need the help. When you provide support to people in business, you also benefit from it. Not just in terms of profit but also the case of professional development. As mentoring is primarily about sharing knowledge, the process of learning and growing never ends. This will always work for everybody’s advantage in business. So, mentoring is a mutually beneficial skill.
