What is really the best timing for building a network marketing business? Is there really a “best time” to work your business? I believe there is.

Work your network marketing business on a DAILY or CONSISTENT basis.

I see a lot of people sign up with network marketing opportunities, but never seem to get anything going. They do a little here and there but never begin to achieve what they started out to do. It is not lack of ability or prospects, but a lack of consistent effort that costs them their success.

The best plan is to work your business every day. There will be some days where you are totally buried in other things, and finding time will be nearly impossible. On those days, make it a point to take at least a small action toward building your business. It isn’t so much that this small action will make a world of difference by itself, but rather the impact it will have toward building a habit of daily action in your business.

What you are seeking is consistency. Try to establish a habit of working your business daily. If you prefer, work on it six evenings a week and take Saturday or Sunday off. Pick a schedule that fits your lifestyle. Just strive for a consistent pattern, otherwise it will be very easy to slip and go for days without doing anything at all. If you are serious about building a real business, you can’t let that happen.

I ran into this quote which sums up a key truth for success in network marketing.

“When nothing seems to help, I go and look at a stone cutter hammering away at his rock perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet at the hundred and first blow it will split in two, and I know it was not that blow that did it, but all that had gone before.”

— Jacob August Riis

For me, I found that organizing a daily schedule in advance helps me stay focused and on top of things. When you wake up each day, if you know you have scheduled actions for your network marketing business, it is much easier to be consistent and stay on track.
