Understanding The TBP Difference Message:

posted by Stephen Scott Founder, The Team Building Project
What makes the Team Building Project different from other 'Team Building' systems?

The concept of pre-building a downline and then inserting that downline into multiple network marketing opportunities has been around since the 1980's. However, previous attempts have all failed because they focused on generating massive profits for the few select founders in the short-run, rather than on the long-term financial success of the entire team. In addition, they aligned themselves with companies that focused on short-term distributor sign-up revenues rather than long-term residual income derived from actually selling products and services to consumers.

The Team Building Project takes a totally different approach that focuses on the long-term success of all existing and future TBP partners.

Difference #1
The Team Building Project will offer a select few business opportunities to our TBP partners. Each opportunity will will represent a unique market segment so that there is no overlap of products/services among our partner business opportunities. The market opportunities that may eventually be available to TBP partners are:
  • Nutritional Products
  • Personal Care Products
  • Internet Services
  • Utilities (Gas & Electric)
  • Travel
  • Home Care Products
In the past, team building systems failed because they promoted multiple (dozens) of business opportunities to their members. They even promoted multiple business opportunities within the same market vertical, resulting in product and service overlaps. This was a formula that guaranteed failure!

The Team Building Project will focus on a select few business opportunities, representing distinct and unique market verticals. In addition, our selected business opportunities will focus on generating long-term residual income from product or service sales volume as apposed to short-term distributor sign-up bonuses. Ideally, our selected companies will provide a mix of both short and long-term income opportunities, with the primary focus being on selling products to consumers.
We will apply very strict selection criteria (in addition to direct discussion with companies) to ensure the business opportunities selected offer the best long-term chance of success for existing and future TBP partners.

Difference #2
Unlike other team building programs, each TBP partner will have full control over which business opportunity they want to join and when they want to join it. You are not forced into joining a business opportunity, but rather you are given a complete access to our research on each company and allowed to make your own decision on if and when to join.

Difference #3
The Team Building Project will not negotiate or demand any special treatment for our TBP partners, we will respect and abide by the rules currently in place for existing business opportunity members. If TBP recommends changes or improvements to the business opportunity's terms, policies and procedures or compensation plan, then, if accepted, our recommendations must be applied to all distributors, not just TBP partners. This not only demonstrates our commitment to equality and teamwork, but it also eliminates the potential problem of existing distributors becoming upset or altogether quitting because TBP partners are getting preferential treatment.

Difference #4
The Team Building Project qualification criteria will help to ensure TBP partners commit the time and effort to pre-position themselves for success. These qualifications must be met to be qualified to join any of the selected business opportunities.

To be a Qualified Team Building Project partner:
  1. You must personally sponsor a minimum of two (2) Team Building Project partners.
  2. You must be a Team Building Project partner for a minimum of sixty (60) days.
The above qualifications will not guarantee your success, but they will definitely increase your chance at long-term success!

Difference #5
The Team Building Project provides each TBP partner with a world-class proprietary platform for building a global distribution network (Absolutely FREE!).
We are not a network marketing (MLM) company nor do we compete with any network marketing companies. We do not charge you to join and use our system, that would be counter productive. One of our primary goals is to remove as many obstacles as possible (including monthly fees) making it possible for you to actually build your team and position yourself for long-term financial success.

This is a major difference between the Team Building Project and many other 'team building' systems!

The TRUTH about TBP Success!

by Stephen Scott  - Founder Team Building Project


When people first join the Team Building Project they are very excited about the concept of pre-building their downline, and being part of a global team of people working together to achieve long-term financial success.

Once the excitement of all the great possibilities of building a network marketing business of your own wears off, then it is time to really get educated about what success in this business really means, and really takes. It takes a driving desire and an education and while it is simple, it is not as easy as most new people trying to recruit you make it sound.

The time you invest in the Team Building Project will pay off for you in the future. It is not something that will pay you like a paycheck will. In other words, we cannot take a look back after the first month in business and make a decision right then based on how much we have spent in time and money, and how much we have earned in profit. Right now it seems like it is just effort going out and no money coming in.

How many months does it take to sell a house after listing it? How long does it take a book writer to get published and get their books on the shelf after it is written? Success in a network marketing career means moving beyond the employee mindset of expecting a paycheck at the end of the week based on hours contributed. That is not how it works.

Take wine for example. We take it for granted that we can walk into any store and buy a bottle of wine from all parts of the world, but it did not grow on the store shelf. Someone took the time to learn about growing grapes, preparing the soil and picking the right varieties for the local climate, then tending to the plants for three to seven years before they ever had a single grape. In addition, they had to learn to bottle and age it. Becoming a successful wine maker is a process and takes time!

Successful network marketing or multi-level marketing is similar to growing grapes. People need to take some time to understand they are investing in their future. They need to nurture not only themselves, but also others. Much like a grape-vine growing needs to be pruned and trellised , someone looking to build a network marketing business need to learn, tend to and cultivate their MLM business daily for a reward in the future.

You see, the winners in this world of network marketing are the people who have committed themselves to learning the ins and outs of building a profitable business. The same can be said about any business, hobby or craft as well. It should not come as a surprise that to get good at any business takes a dedicated effort to learn and apply what you have learned. It is not and has never been a get rich quick scheme. It is slow and steady.

People who succeed have fallen in love with the process and the effort it takes to build their business as much as the dream of being their own boss and having the freedom of time and money that growing a successful MLM business provides. It takes many hours of effort to reap many hours of freedom and it is foolish to believe otherwise. When you plant a tree you don't expect to pick fruit in a month or two, do you?

If you are just starting out in the Team Building Project and have just planted some seeds by talking to some friends and family about the exciting opportunity that you are part of and think that once they sign up your money troubles are over, think again. Just like plants, people need to be nourished too. Some will take in the mental food you feed them and some will not and will need to be pruned. Pruning is just as important to the health of your business as growing it is, in fact, it is part of growing a successful MLM business. It keeps the rest of your business healthy.

So what makes some people motivated to do what it takes to build a thriving business? Think about it. Why did you join the TBP? Most likely, it just made sense, especially when compared to the opportunities you have tried in the past. It was the dream you had that made you imagine you could do it too. But as the reality of all the effort it will take sinks in, the doubts begin to overshadow the dream to the point of the death. That is one of the reasons that having a strong dream or reason Why is so important to succeeding in an MLM business. If your Why is big enough and strong enough the How will work itself out.

Knowing your reason for building a business is only a part of the puzzle though. Realizing that to succeed you need to commit to growing yourself first and then others in your organization on a daily basis, is another part that needs to be put in to practice. That is why falling in love with the process of building relationships first, building yourself second and finally building your business, is a critical reason why some succeed and some fail.

You possess everything inside of you already that you need to be successful. Discover the deep seated reasons why you need to achieve financial success, commit to learning what successful business builders do and commit to taking action.

The rewards are indescribable and liberating and include not stressing over money, lack of stress in general and rich relationships with positive, goal-oriented people.
