Productivity Hacks For Greater Efficiency & Growth

  1. Always Prioritize

Setting priorities are important for business efficiency. It enables you to make the right choice and save time. Learn to prioritize your time, goals, and daily activities. Ensure that you prioritize essential activities such as training for your team members, meeting with your partners and customers, and following up on your prospects. The truth is that you have to learn to prioritize even while multitasking. There will always be tasks to complete. You may never be able to finish these tasks; however, your productivity level will increase exponentially when you order your work by priority levels.

2. Time management

Time is a crucial element when running a business, and every minute or second counts. Time management is critical to business growth and productivity. One of the most effective time management strategies is Steven Covey’s Four Quadrants of time management. These quadrants focus on identifying the most important activities. The four quadrants require you to rank activities by the following:

  • Urgent and important
  • Urgent and unimportant
  • Important and not urgent
  • Not important and not urgent

3. Avoid Procrastination

Procrastination is when you choose to do something else other than the initial task you had set out to do. Procrastination often involves ignoring an unpleasant but more critical task to enjoy comfort or do things that are less difficult. Procrastination will reduce your productivity and cause you to miss important goals.

4. Recruit the Best Talent

People are pillars for your businesses. They complete projects, and this leads to the company’s growth. As a leader, it's important to spend more time acquiring and keeping the best people in your team. This makes sure that you are not tempted to micro-manage people. While it is advisable that you invest in people, ensure that you invest in people who support your dreams and visions. Do these people's dreams align with yours? Then you are on the right track.

5. Learn to say No

Saying No to speaking engagements and meetings is not entirely wrong. It is pivotal to prioritize your personal development over other things that may require more time than you have. Attending multiple meetings at the expense of your growth is detrimental because you will not have time to focus on what’s truly important.

The 21st century, with its several opportunities, internet access, and technology, has created an effective recruitment route for network marketers. Recruitment in network marketing is critical to business growth, even though recruitment has evolved over the years. The 21st-century network marketer must be abreast of today's global trends, limitations, and elements. Over the years, I have recruited the best hands by exploring recruitment techniques that work.

5 Recruitment Techniques That Work for Me:

  1. Authority Marketing

There are over 7 billion people on earth, and it is essential that you know your target audience. Who is your target audience? What do they want? What products and services entice them? Having a deep understanding of your audience helps you ask your prospects the right questions. Whether it is a warm or cold prospect, understanding your target market allows you to identify ways to project your opportunities and financial solutions. This makes you an authority that others listen to.

2. Social Media Recruiting

Recruitment today has transitioned beyond directly prospecting people at events or the marketplace to recruiting people on social media. Ardath Albee, the CEO of marketing Interaction, said, ‘Social media allows entrepreneurs to humanize our communications and make our companies more approachable.’ Social media gives you an avenue to connect with your followers, build a stable relationship and community.

4. Consulting

Problem-solving is crucial to every business, and network marketing is not left out. As a network marketer, you must pay attention to the problems of your target audience and provide sustainable solutions. Moreover, resolving people's problems while recruiting is a highly persuasive method. Ask questions about their dreams and provide solutions, ideas, and many other features to benefit your company.

5. Email Marketing

It is the 21st century, and email marketing is creating massive opportunities for business owners. According to Oberlo, email users are predicted to reach 4.3 billion in 2023. Email marketing also offers a high ROI of $42 for every $1 you spend.

Because you decided not to give up, here I am still standing.
Because you decided to blaze a trail where others failed to tread, I am following my bliss too.
