The Duplication Formula

Let me share with you the formula for creating true duplication and wealth in our business.  It may strike you as simplistic, but I promise you it is actually quite profound. This formula is where duplication lives.  It is:

Lead a large group of people—to consistently do a few simple actions—over a sustained period of time.

You’ll notice there are three sections that make up the formula. First is the large group of people. You need enough critical mass to get traction and for duplication to take off.

The second element is to have those people perform only a few actions and to keep those actions simple. One of the biggest mistakes newcomers make is to try and quantify everything, and in doing so they add too much complexity. For true duplication we need to focus on actions simple enough that everyone in the large group can replicate.

And finally, you need this to happen over a sustained period of time. I believe building a solid network is a two- to four-year plan. Mark Yarnell says five, and he’s one of the brightest minds in the business.

So it doesn’t happen in a month or two or even six. We need people to consistently take the actions for a sustained period of time. This is how wealth is created in MLM.

It doesn’t happen overnight, but if you follow the formula – it does happen!

    1. He does not define ‘simple actions’ on purpose. This is a formula and simple action is a variable. The variable is which multi-level-marketing arrangement you are using the formula with. Keep what you do, and what you want your prospects and clients doing, all simple and able to happen without anyone really having to think about it, so if when they agree with you, that’s it. The end. Your work here is done and it’s time to move forward.

  1. The simplicity of Network Marketing is amazing. Anyone can do it. It’s the consistency that makes most people fail. Thanks for sharing Randy.

    1. It’s that first part that I’m having difficulty with…… Get a LARGE group of people.. What’s the secret to getting that done?

      1. Linda,

        I love the “Race for Aces” analogy that kim Klaver uses. There are 4 Aces in a standard playing card deck. For Networking sake these are our 4 leaders. Our job is to find these 4 leaders (aces) asfast as possible & teach them (duplication) to do the same thing. Don’tget distractedby bright shiny objects, yes the king of diamonds dresses well, but he’s no ace. The queen of. Clubs makes all the social gatherings but she’s no ace either.

        In the Vein of Randy’s post. I’m keeping it super simple.

        Best Wishes,
        Derrick

  2. Love it!

    On the simple actions part of the equation, I’ve heard your friend Jordan Adler talk about what he calls the 8 year old test. Meaning if an 8 year old can’t do it, don’t do it. I liked that too.

  3. Hey Randy/

    For to build a stable and massive building we need to work for it some period,this
    so for the MLM organization.”Rome was not builded in some days”.

  4. Yes, you have to keep it “Stupid Simple” so anyone can do it and do it over and over again. Generate leads. Build rapport with leads. Invite them to see your companies business plan. Seems so simple!

  5. I really love that formula since I first heard you say it. It is a great reminder. Stay focused and keep your team focused on those few simple actions. Thanks for sharing.

  6. So true Randy… so very true. The formula is so simple and if followed as said, it works wonders. Thanks Randy!

  8. MLM is really the great way to have more market. But some exceptional thing you presented in your writing is totally different that I know before.It changed my view of marketing. Thank you.

  9. Hey Randy, I love articles that are concise and very informative. You hit the mark with this particular one. People have to realise that it takes patience and persistence. Great job my friend..

  10. Simplicity is everything! If people look at what you’re doing and think, “I could never do that,” well they’re right. They’ll never do it. Everything you’re doing needs to look simple and duplicable.

    And I totally agree … this is a business that is built over time, not overnight!

    Thanks for keeping it real!

  16. Excellent points Randy. In regards to sustainability and duplication, I agree, these are the two main caveats which could make or break a business. Unfortunately, sometimes sustainability can’t be proven immediately. Also, there are outliers which can create sustainability out of shear habit. And when I got into this business, it was the deciding factor. To learn how you can replicate your affiliate profits and gain high residual income take my tour on this ad free site.
