Your Virtual Upline Podcast Bob Heilig

Today’s episode is a Case Study of one of our students Kristy Wharton that increased her total team sales from $8,000 in 2018 to over $125,000 in 2019! 
When Kristy first joined the Legacy Leadership Academy in July of 2019 she was really struggling creating any kind of duplication on her team.  She had done a great job personally making sales and getting new recruits, but that success wasn’t translating to her team.
This caused her to really struggle with her own confidence and belief as a leader.  She knew she needed help, she just wasn’t sure exactly what to do.  After joining LLA she immediately knew what her biggest problem was - ONBOARDING.
She did not have a simple system in place for onboarding her new team members.  She took the exact system that we teach inside of LLA, implemented it into her team in October, and couldn’t believe what she saw happen. 
Here team did over 80,000 in total team sales in just the last 3 months of the year!  This brought her total team sales for 2019 to right around $114,000.  That’s a 1,325% increase!!
In this episode I talk with Kristy and she explains EXACTLY what she did to help her create those kinds of results.  If you are someone that’s struggling with building your team, and creating other independent leaders, this is a MUST LISTEN episode!

When it comes to Facebook strategy, one of the most frequent questions I get is:
Should I be focusing on using a Business Page or my own Personal Profile?
In 2018, Facebook made a major change in terms of building Page audience that changed everything.
They severely started limiting the organic reach of Business Pages.
As of right now, the only way to build your Facebook business page today is through paid advertising.
However, running ads for NM opportunities and products does NOT  work. It’s a total waste of time and money.
That’s why I recommend you focus on building your personal brand on your Personal Profile and start selling YOU. Lead with LOVE and SERVICE on your social media posts, not selling and promoting.
If you start selling and promoting LESS and start focusing on adding value to people with your content, I guarantee that you’ll start getting more engagement over time.

Do you ever find yourself stuck and not wanting to move forward?  Or maybe you are just not taking enough action because you’re obsessed over making sure everything looks perfect?
If you answered YES to either of those questions, then you’re trapped in the Perfectionism-Procrastination loop.
I’ve worked with thousands of network marketing leaders, and I now know that the THE biggest enemies on our journey to success are PERFECTIONISM and PROCRASTINATION.
Perfectionists think anything short of perfection is unacceptable.  Perfectionists spin this need as a ‘good thing.’  But, in reality, perfectionism is just a delay tactic….one that’s seen as ‘acceptable’ by society.  But, it’s also one that won’t grow your business. 
If you are a perfectionist, I want you to know this -- perfectionism isn’t just about having high standards. It’s defining your success in such a narrow way of thinking and then punishing yourself for any type failure. Perfectionism, if left unchecked, can kill both your personal and business growth long-term.
And procrastination is actually a BYPRODUCT of perfectionism. WHY?
Because perfectionists fear being unable to complete a task perfectly, they put it off as long as possible. The higher the fear of failure and ridicule, the more perfectionists procrastinate, and this is where the Perfectionism-Procrastination Loop begins.
So, how do you break the Perfectionism-Procrastination Loop?
Well, I cover that and more in today’s podcast episode!  Listen now!

What if you can turn one live video into an entire week's worth of content?
Are you spending hours each week creating ‘new’ content for social media?  It doesn’t have to be that way!
The biggest reason why people struggle so much with creating content for all of their social media platforms is that they have NO SYSTEM.
Social media for many of you has become a full-time job…and it’s taking away from your what will create true results in your business – prospecting and reachouts.
But it doesn’t have to be that way!
The frustration and overwhelm that you’re experiencing when it comes to social media content ends today. 
In this week’s Biz Tip Friday, I’m going to share my own Content Repurposing System that will save you time from creating content each week.  I’m giving you my personal step-by-step guide to my Live Video Content Multiplier Formula and also the tools and apps to help you manage your content, and much more.
Once you implement this system, you’ll have an endless supply of content for social media.
Trust me, this podcast will literally change your life…and your business!

Ask yourself this: Is social media helping or hurting your business?
In today’s businesses, social media is featured as ‘the solution’ for so many business problems we face. 
Some would go so far as to say that social media IS a business; however, THAT’S NOT TRUE.
I’m not against the use of social media as a tool, but relying on it alone means you are just one algorithm change away from not having a business anymore.
Focusing 90% of your time on attraction marketing, thinking that attraction marketing is the silver bullet to build your business, is actually killing your business.
In fact, attraction marketing has destroyed more businesses than it has actually helped in this profession.
So, what I teach is to begin using social media in a different way than what everyone else is teaching. 
Because, if we don’t start changing the way we use social media and the way we think about it, we are putting the future of our profession in danger.
Network marketing is not a social media or attraction marketing business. Social media is just the front end of the funnel. It is just one of the many ways that you can grow your business.
Think about this: What if one day you can’t use social media anymore?
I truly believe you can still build a business without using social media, because, in the end, network marketing is about core leadership development and business building strategies.

This week we dive into a very SERIOUS issue for all of us involved in the network marketing profession.  Just last week the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) sent warning letters to 10 different network marketing companies. 
These warning letters were a result of distributors making health and earnings claims related to the Coronavirus.  I hate to say this, but I saw this coming a mile away.  I’ve been pretty vocal about how bad we’ve been falling as a profession on social media in response to all of this.  Using this tragedy as an excuse to sell and recruit. 
In this episode I go DEEP into what the warning letter said, and more importantly what this means to every single one of you in this profession.  I actually did an entire YouTube Video on this topic that I’d love if you check out and share with your teams.  Here’s the link to video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0KUcdwTbhTw&feature=youtu.be
I also share with you 3 things you can be doing right not to help out in this area - to make sure that you are a part of the SOLUTION, not the problem.  This is an unprecedented thing that’s happened for our profession, and you need to make sure you are educated on what’s happening.  The long term viability of your business and this profession depends on it.
