In this network marketing tips article I’m going to show you how the New Orleans Saints have provided us with some valuable success tips which if you apply to your MLM business could have you rejoicing in much the same way as they did recently.

You don’t have to know a whole lot about American Football to understand that the recent historic win for the Saints was an epic victory. The Saints won the Super Bowl, the biggest prize in American sport.

What is significant about the win is that they had to overcome a legacy of failure stretching back 42 years! In fact this team had never reached the championship game before. You’ll understand then how the tradition of fans wearing paper bags over their heads  and calling themselves  “Aints” came about.

What makes their win even more amazing is that they were up against the mighty Indianapolis Colts, the team with the best record in the league and in fact the best record over the past decade. Throughout the game, it looked as if the Colts had it in the bag of course and then the underdogs took control in the final quarter. Drew Brees, the Saint’s quarterback equalled the record for the most passes completed in the Super Bowl. The final score – Saints 31, Colts 17.

After years of football failure and and more than four years of real hardship since Hurricane Katrina all but flattened New Orleans completely, no city needed or deserved this win more and no football team deserved the Lombardi Trophy more either.

So what network marketing tips can we take from this story?

Just as the Saint’s previous results were not an indication of things to come, it does not matter about your past business results either.  These do not have to equal your future results. Learn from your errors, change what’s not working, focus on NOW and this will determine your future results.

When their city flooded and their stadium was turned into a shelter, the team considered looking for a better stadium and bigger market but instead they returned to a repaired Superdome. They did not abandon ship. Just because you have not realized the results you want with your present company does not mean you should jump around from company to company. If you are not succeeding yet it’s more than likely you who needs work. With personal development you will position yourself to be successful no matter which company you are with.  Stay focused and commit yourself to your company in the long term.

Obviously having Brees join the Saints played a huge part in their recovery and success, but football is not won by one player. It takes a team working together.  The Saints team as a whole were able to demonstrate that they were the best team of the season and the best team on the day. Your business is not called “networking” by chance, it’s a fundamental operational principle. You need to work together with others and help them to become successful and then you will find success too. Perhaps your business needs inspired leadership so why don’t you step up and be the Brees of your team? Remember too that any one of the people you bring on board could be the leader you are looking for, the new blood to get things going, so sign up leaders not opportunity seekers.

The Saints and New Orleans did not give up despite huge odds against them.Whatever your situation, you can be successful too as long as you never give up.  It’s all up to you. What are you going to do about it?
