We’ve all heard stories of sudden success: how someone who was already a key influencer in their community joins a Direct Selling company and through massive action with their existing network quickly zooms to the top of their pay plan and great acclaim.
Those stories are exciting. They’re a testament to the potential of our profession, and many find these overnight success stories inspiring.
Yet, for some emerging leaders, it’s confusing. You might wonder, “Why didn’t I do that? What am I doing wrong?”
The truth is, stories of overnight success are rare. By far, those who make consistent effort, improving their skills relentlessly and with urgency over time, are the ones you see walking across the stage to celebrate their success and that of their team.
So, since it’s more common, wouldn’t it be good to know what that story looks like?
As I continue to serve our profession, my passion and belief knows no bounds. My familiarity with the story has not dulled, but rather shines brighter each day. In fact, I’m more involved in the story, your story, than ever before.
Just as our lives unfold in a series of distinct chapters that ultimately reflect our life’s journey, your Direct Selling business unfolds in distinct chapters that will ultimately reflect your personal development journey.
Notice that I didn’t say that it would reflect your ‘business’ journey, but rather your personal development journey.
It’s often said that “it’s not the destination but who we become along the way.” I love that one!
Let’s take a look at three distinct chapters of building a Direct Selling business and review some sage advice to support you in writing your chapters. It’s time to identify where are you now and what’s your next step.

ACHIEVEMENT
Once you have built a team that continues to thrive and expand, you need a way to extend your influence beyond your direct leaders to those in your downline organization. To succeed in your Achievement chapter, keep your focus on your AUTHENTIC LEADERSHIP.
Now is your time to become the leader you know you can be: an authentic leader who will attract and retain great people and transform lives. Four of the top strategies are to:
If you’re writing your Achievement chapter right now, ask yourself, what are you doing to attain the viewpoint, skill set and mindset to execute these strategies and move your business forward?
The truth is, meeting you through one of the Big Business Breakthrough activities, I don’t know as much about you as I’d like. But I do care about you, your story and your success.
If you are writing your Achievement chapter, you owe it to yourself to check out my latest training, Authentic Leadership for Outrageous Achievement.
I am excited about the caliber of leaders who have already come together in the course community. It includes leaders who have worked with me before, key leaders from their teams, leaders who have met me on Facebook and leaders who were referred to the course by upline or crossline friends.
They tell me that opportunities for advanced leadership training are in high demand at this level. They continually ask me for more leadership training. That’s why I want to make sure that everyone who might be qualified to join this exclusive group has the chance to do so.
Today the doors of the online course will open and our community of leaders will begin their orientation.
Because it’s an online course, you can start anytime … but for this inaugural period, I’ll be hosting a series of live calls where I will personalize the course for those who attend. You still have a week before the live calls begin.
If this is your time to make revisions or rewrite your Achievement chapter, please let me know at leslie@lesliezann.com today. Join us and learn the viewpoint, skill set and mindset to achieve the unlimited vision you hold for yourself and your team.
To making this year, your best year!
