Hey, what's going on this is Aaron Cournoyer, welcome to another episode of MLM Hackers Radio. I'm super excited for today's episode. We're going to cue up the theme song and then we're going to get started.

If you're like me, then you know MLM is a great opportunity to grow a lasting asset. But the real problem is what do we do when we run out of our warm market and how do we succeed without pitching to just family and friends. This podcast is here to answer the growing questions about MLM as I learn, apply and scale my very own MLM business and document how to in this podcast. I'm Aaron Cournoyer and this is MLM Hackers Radio.

Alright! Woo!. Okay, so today we're going to talk about how to leverage like manage your time and leverage your time when we all have a 9 to 5 schedule. Cause I think most of us when we started our MLM, we all have a scheduled, well, you know, we don't, I mean a good, some of us start and don't have like a normal 9 to 5 job or part time, whatever it is. Um, so a lot of us start and we have a 40 hour week and how do we leverage our time and how do we like really manage our time to actually be able to use it efficiently to actually build our MLM. And I think this was one of the biggest things that I struggled with in the beginning is, and I think a lot of people struggle with this in the beginning is because, you know, some of us when we get started, you know, we have a family or we have, um, we just have life in general.

You know, there's, there's a lot of things going on, you know, um, and you think about right now, like especially this time of the year where you got birthday parties, graduations and all different things like that going on festivals and there's a lot of distractions and a lot of things to do. Um, because of the summertime. And I think this was the hardest things that I like I dealt with for, for awhile because how did I, how to like really, how do you like leverage your time for one, and how do you really manage your time for two uh, like how, how do you, how do you really do it without getting burnt out and being all over all over the board and actually still finding time to actually have, you know, somewhat of a normal life. And I think that was one of the biggest struggles I had with the long, for the longest time.

And you know, we look at a lot of these other people that are succeeding and are actually like, you know, getting recognized on stage and things like that, which we all want. A lot of them are able to do this full time and, but a lot of them didn't start full time, you know. And I think that's one of the things that, um, we look at and go, man, well if I had this much amount of time to dedicate to it, I would, you know, I'd be there, I'd be there. But I'm not saying that's not true, but there's a way that you can actually help you leverage your time and use it wisely. Uh, so, um, I think I found out a little thing that works for me. You might have to find, you know, I'm going to let you know what works for me and you can try to apply it in your business and see how it works for you.

But, um, you know, you might find something different that you can use or a different way you use and that's totally fine. Uh, so definitely, but I just want to give you what's been helping for me. So like this is what my schedule. Looks like I work a normal 40 hour week as well. Um, I only worked Tuesday through Friday though. My, my hours are, my days are four tens. Sometimes a little longer, but, so I work till about 3pm 3:30pm. And then when I come home, I clean, you know, I do my things around the house and I need to, and then I uh, make, you know, I eat, make dinner or whatever. So about 6pm, 6:30pm then I come up into my office and then, um, from about 6:30 or so till about, you know, 9:30, 10 o'clock before I get ready for bed, I'm getting ready to go to sleep, I'm working on the business.

And I think what's helped me is like every week I take one day off, like I'll take a Sunday off and I started planning out my week. I started planning out like, what are the three things I'm going to get done every single day that is gonna, you know, help leverage my time and manage my time the right way that I can actually move forward in the business and get things done without feeling burnt out or feeling like, you know, I think for a while there, I, I think a lot of us as entrepreneurs have this issue. Like we, we tend to try to get everything done at once when we should take it one step at a time sometimes because sometimes we get so distracted with trying to get everything done at once. You know, you start one thing and then you don't finish and you move on to the next thing and then you keep going and keep going in that cycle.

And Ha! I, for the longest, I had a problem with that. I would always like, I would jump around and I would never, I would come back and be like, oh my God. And I had nothing finished. You know, and it just, now that you have a hundred tasks open that, you haven't even finished one, and then you feel like you're stuck and you're not getting anywhere, you're just stuck in the mud. And it a, it becomes frustrating. And, and especially in the beginning when like a lot of us, you know, when you first started, you don't see the big amount of money or anything coming in. And I think that's, it's, it's, um, kind of demoralizing and frustrating, especially when you're trying to get everything up and going and running. Uh, it really, it really gets frustrating. And I had a problem with that for the longest and that bothered me because I would couldn't get one thing done at a time.

I, I, I needed to focus on getting one thing at a time. I just would kept jumping around going to this and that. So what I do now as I plan out my week, what I'm going to do are the three things I'm going to do Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and so forth. And that's how I plan my weekend. It's been helping a lot, a lot, a, a lot easier because, you know, cause then I can take about an hour, you know, cause I, I'm able to spend about three hours or so a day on the business. So like I take, okay, so if I take three hours, I got an hour for this hour for that or for that. And now that's my three hours. So that's three things that I can do every single day. Tell to help move forward. And um, there's, there's inside of MLM, there's three ways that you use your time.

Okay. And there's three different costs of, of um, you know, in your MLM and the different costs are your time, money and repeatable time. And I figured out like, okay, so time, time was like you use in your time as far as like you're going, you're going in, you are, you know, doing presentation after presentation after presentation. So then you have money cost. Okay. Now, then after money costs, there's also another way it's called repeatable time costs. And, and that's what I focused on the most is repeatable time, time activities. Like the way I'm able to do that is instead of, like going in like the normal way and selling a traditional ways that MLM teach. Do I decide to make and build sales funnels? Sales funnels are my way to automate it. Instead of me having to sell, sell, sell, sell, sell. It's all set up that I can just do it automatically.

It's something that I did once and not again, it's the, excuse me, it's there over and over. Um, same thing, like making a youtube video in, um, you know, making a course, whatever it is, it's something that's there that will always be there. Instead, of having to take your time and go over and over and over again and keep saying the same presentation over and over and over and over. And it really gets really ah, you get burnt out with that. So those are the three things that I focus on that I understand is there's different costs. Okay. So I bought, I only focused on the one I was focused on the one repeatable time activity. Okay. Those are the things you've got to look at and see that's the best way you're going to be able to leverage your time. And if you can figure out how to do that, um, using your sales funnels and using, like being able to leverage your time better, uh, it would make it a lot easier for you and you'll be able to get a lot more things done and not have to focus on certain things so much and going through those traditional methods with that MLM teach you.

Um, so, but like I said, you plan out your week. I plan out my week every single week. I figured out this. What I'm going to do, it's okay I have a schedule. I know there's some something coming up on the schedule. Okay? So I got to work around that and figure things out. But use the things that are actually gonna make you leverage your time easier. Okay? And that right there is going to help you dramatically in your business. I promise. You promise you start applying things that are going to help you to help you leverage your time. When it comes down to it, rich people understand something. It's about leverage time. And that's why MLM is big too is because it's about leveraging other people. Okay? Like leveraging the team. That's why you're able to build so big and get so much more commission because you're helping other people build in.

And so spending 80 hours a week on something, you get one, you get 80 people to do one hour a week and then you're able to leverage your time. That's the biggest thing that you know you need to learn in MLM is how to leverage time and how to manage your time wisely. That will help you move towards your goal. And don't get me wrong, you, you can sell the traditional way that it's taught, you know, parties and, and presentations and, and weekly meetings and all that stuff. You can do that. Trust me, it works. People have gone in and made multimillion dollar companies that way. Our businesses that way, no one in their MLM. But how many people have done that and how easy is it for the, for the average person? And that's one of the biggest things is that that's why I use a sales funnels because it's easier to different way and I don't have to use all my time going after and trying to build these things that way.

And you know, if you want to do it that way, that's fine. I'm just telling you this is a better way to leverage your time. I think it's a lot easier. At the end of the day, what you're doing is you're cutting down speed. Okay. So if you're able to cut down the speed of the time and the process takes to actually build your MLM, you're going to get to the finish line a lot faster. And that's, you do that by cutting down the time and leveraging the time the right way. Um, and that's the way I found to be able that that actually allowed me to cut down time and leverage my time a lot easier as using the funnel using a sales funnel. Guys, I'm telling you, it's huge. It's huge, huge, huge, and in business. And if you are using a sales funnel, it's going to help you dramatically because you're gonna be able to be able to pull people in and you're not gonna have to worry about sitting there constantly doing over and over.

Like even if you run into someone and a, whatever the street or whatever, you start pitching, hey, go here and have them look at your sales funnel. Have them go through the sales funnel instead of you trying to sit there and pitch them and say, okay, well I'll meet you on a Tuesday. And, uh, we'll meet up there and I'll spend it and spend an hour talking to you about it. Like, no, you don't have time for that. You have, you just, you have them go through the funnel and right there we'll explain everything they need to know and you'll be able to by using an application funnel as well, you'll be able to decipher through it. Like, okay, this guy's good fit is not going to fit. So you didn't spend an hour and a half sitting there doing a presentation to them and guess what? At the end of the day he goes, well I don't think it's for me.

So you know what I'm saying? That's how you're able to leverage your time, use a sales funnel, use, use it, use different ways, use repeatable time activities. Those are what's going to change your business and those are what's going to help you leverage your time and and really manage your time a lot better. Especially when you're building an MLM and you don't have so much time and we all have a schedule. We all have a life. And also don't forget to actually like plan out your week, plan out your week, plan out the three things are going to do every single day. All right guys, so that's all I really got for you guys.
