Gift of Knowledge
Tomorrow will be Thanksgiving in the USA.
Unfortunately Thanksgiving has lost a lot of its original meaning of family and gratitude.
Instead, it is now known for shopping and the official start of the holiday shopping season.
Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving or the last Friday in November, is where everyone goes crazy to search for the best deals.
I can’t stand Black Friday and not only do I NEVER go shopping, I don’t even want to leave my house to join the madness.
Besides, I like to give better gifts to my friends.
But let me ask you.
What type of gifts do you plan to give your friends this year?
Or does the thought of shopping stress you out?
If it does, skip the holiday shopping madness and do something different this year.
Instead of thinking about what materialistic items your friends and family need, make it easy.
Give something that EVERYONE needs everyday.
Give the Gift of Knowledge
Your friends may not need another shirt, gadget or appliance.
But everyone can use more wisdom and knowledge.
And this is especially true if you are a MLM distributor.
Here are 3 reasons why the Gift of Knowledge is the Best Gift you can give
1) It Makes YOU Look Good
Even if your friends are not MLM distributors they will see how you have grown.
Instead of giving out the normal gifts, you are giving out wisdom and knowledge.
Now I realize some may embrace it while others may be disappointed and say you are weird.
Either way… it is a good thing.
Because they notice you have CHANGED and YOU are onto something.
The fact that you are into personal growth will make them realize that you are growing and a different person.
And people always buy your Change.
There will be prospects that become interested in what you do and join your business.
And even if they don’t, they may tell their friends about how you have changed and how you give gifts of wisdom…
and maybe one of their friends may be intrigued at what you do and become prospects!
2) Grow Prospects by Growing People
Giving gifts of wisdom is like planting seeds to grow oak trees.
Your friends today may not be interested to improve their lives and may be poor MLM prospects.
But as they read the books they will expand their minds and want to achieve more in life.
As your friends grow, they will become good prospects for you.
Just think about it…
There was a time where you would NOT be interested in MLM.
You were happy and complacent in life.
But as your grew your mind, your view of life, financial freedom and priorities changed and you became interested in joining a MLM so that you could achieve your dreams.
In other words, you grew.
When you give gifts of wisdom, you are speeding up the growth of their minds.
You are growing prospects by growing people.
3) You Are Creating a Leadership Factory
In order for entrepreneurs to grow our incomes, we must continue to invest in our minds.
It doesn’t matter how much money you are making, the only way you can increase your profits is by growing yourself.
Success in MLM is about building a Magnetic Leadership Factory.
Your goal is to create and duplicate leaders and the way you do that is by investing in the personal growth of your downlines.
So as your people grow, your income will grow.
That’s why the gift of wisdom is the best gift you can give to your downlines.
Types of Gifts of Knowledge You Can Give
Phil Jackson, the famous NBA Hall of Fame basketball coach was known to give books to his players to read.
There are many different types of gifts of knowledge you can give.
If you have friends who are happy at their jobs and not interested in a business, a great gift is to give them is the book Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki.
If you have downlines that need help in prospecting, I highly recommend the book that got me started; which was Selling 101 by Zig Ziglar.
Here are a list of other books I would recommend.
Another great life changing gift you can give is a trial subscription to my Insider’s Circle training for only $3.95.
Not only will your team get plugged into a weekly training program that teaches them social media marketing, creating flyers, prospecting and closing more sales but they will get plugged into a community with other successful distributors… and also receive a monthly newsletter!
It’s the best gift you can give for only $3.95.
Give the Gift that Lasts Forever
Clothes get worn.
Gadgets get outdated.
But knowledge and wisdom lasts forever.
For this holiday season, save yourself stress and give the gift of knowledge instead.
