There is a train of thought out in the Network Marketing  industry that you should be sponsored into the business by the first person who exposed you to the business opportunity. Well I have news for you, in my personal opinion that is absolutely false.

If you are serious about developing a real business through the vehicle of network marketing than you have to diligently explore what are your available options.

Why should you shop for a network marketing sponsor?  Your sponsor is going to be your primary conduit initially to what could be a fantastic career within this industry or they could be the reason you never give this industry a fair chance at making a real difference in your life.

The right sponsor is often times not the biggest recruiter for your opportunity.  Alot of the times what you will find is that the highest recruiting executives within the company are so busy putting the next guy in that they lose sight of the 3 that just dropped out of the business because of lack of proper mentorship. This is why this type of network marketing sponsor  seems to always be running at a 110 mph just to keep their check at a respectable level.

The flip side to this is that you want to make sure that your network marketing sponsor  KNOWS HOW to sponsor and create business opportunities.  Someone who is kicking butt at what they’re doing right now but not so busy that they can’t give you a healthy dose of PERSONAL mentoring.

There are several areas to consider when you shop for a network marketing sponsor:

1.  It's important to connect with a network marketing sponsor who absolutely has YOUR best interests at heart.

2.  Are they coming from a recruiter’s mentality or do they understand that {long term|true success revolves around training, developing, and mentoring (sponsoring) their new business partner?

3.  Do they have a turn-key system  in place already to train you and the team you build? This consideration is of crucial importance because remember although network marketing may be a business of relationships there is the MARKETING that has to take place in order to increase the opportunities to form those relationships.

4.  Are they a hands on type of sponsor? Will they hop on the keyboard and walk you through a campaign set up and coach you or are they too busy all of the time? Obviously your activity level will either incentivize them or de-motivate them to do this with you.

 5. What type of team culture do they have in place? Is it one of cooperation, self growth, mutual support and team driven goals or is it all about them?

6.  Are they a 21st century network marketer? Are they showing the plan at your local Barnes & Nobles or are they hip to the various strategies a modern networker employs? Do they understand the role that Social Media, Article Marketing, and Forum Marketing have in your successful ability to attract others to you?

7.  Do they understand and appreciate the role that offline networking has in the longevity and profitability of your business? Do they have an offline system that you can plug into?

8.  Ask yourself this question; Do I like, trust, and respect this person? You’re going to be in constant communication with your sponsor so it is important to make sure you mesh well with them.

9.  Are they a student of Network Marketing and Personal Development? True success comes from the proper study and application of these principles.

10. Do they have a community site that you can join and socialize with other team builders

I truly hope that I have given you something to think about when choosing who will be your next network marketing sponsor. {If you take the time and do your homework well it can make a massive difference in your life and those who come after you.
