I was sitting at my desk a few days ago thinking about how playing video games can help your MLM business. The more I thought about it the more I kept thinking of how it doesn’t grow your business. So I came up with another idea that I think just might help.
Though I know that playing video games will NOT help you enroll prospects into your business or get anything productive done but I have realized that some games are actually similar to MLM. I know, it sounds crazy but hear me out. The one genre I thought to be most like MLM are RPG’s (role playing games). Now I know it sounds crazy and I am sure I am slightly crazy but how I see it is people who devote so much time in this genre type are in fact playing a “cloaked” MLM game.
Here is how I got to this amazing crazy idea.
RPG’s are full of opportunity, excitement, treasures, people and hard work.
In MLM hard work and consistent persistence will pay off BIG. The same goes for most RPG games. In the beginning of an RPG your character is a very low rank or no rank at all, zero experience, and it will take some time to get used to how the game plays. Then after hours upon hours of play, your hard work and determination pays off. Now you have a well experience character, your rank has increased, and a multitude of other things happened.
Over time you will collect knowledge, wisdom and experience.
Your character based on your actions will “level up” when experience is earned by defeating challenges and enemies. The same holds true in the MLM world. When you gain some experience and defeat challenges you to will “level up” to the next rank.
Some video games are hard work and take hours upon hours to complete and some truly don’t really end. That same principle is true with network marketing. The business can be hard and take’s a lot of time to do but the challenge is often very rewarding.
If you play RPG’s often then you just might understand what I mean. Of course this can go into great amounts of detail but the basics get the points rounded. If you play RPG’s, consider yourself pre qualified for any network marketing opportunity. You already possess some of the basic skills and fundamentals to do it.
Gamer’s be ready. MLM is in your blood. Hardwork, consistent persistence and dedication will lead you to a rewarding MLM future.
Let us all start getting more experience and begin “leveling up” because in the end no matter what we all will have achieved something.
To your success,
