What Is The Most Dangerous Thought?

August 7, 2022 By admin Leave a Comment

In business, the most dangerous thought is “My problems will go away by themselves.”

Unfortunately, wishing problems away rarely works. Fortunately, there is a better way to make your problems go away.

We Understand

Thinking that the problems will go away by themselves is a topic that we discuss with many of our clients. The urge to do nothing is very strong.

We realize that as a business owner, it is difficult for you to keep your eyes on everything that happens to your company. Like a small weed, unless dealt with immediately, what is seen today as a small problem will more than likely grow to become a big deal.

A Better Way

No one ever said you need to be the Lone Ranger, the person whose job it is to fix all problems. Quite the contrary, you have the power to ask for and obtain help.

One of the things we do really well at Sylvina Consulting is to help direct selling companies with their problems.

Here are some examples of problems we have solved:

too many enrollment options
confusing starter kit contents
incomplete policies and procedures
insufficient field training
unclear field communications
ineffective compensation plans
compensation plans with illegal elements
lack of a leadership development program
incorrectly designed fast start programs
hostess programs that cost too much
illegal business practices
software that costs too much
software that doesn’t do what you need it to do
stagnated growth
declining recruiting
declining sales
not measuring the performance of your business the right way
not knowing exactly what is wrong

The first step is to stop thinking that your problems will go away by themselves. The second step is to contact us at Sylvina Consulting.

First as a software developer and later as a project leader and a business analyst, Jay worked closely with new and established network marketing and party direct selling companies to provide them with software solutions to meet their unique requirements.

Jay contributed in many ways to the success of large implementation projects for many companies. Jay also worked with dozens of smaller companies to assist each of them in various capacities to provide them with the systems they needed to help their businesses to grow faster.

Along the way while working with them, he learned the secrets of successful direct selling companies and the challenges faced by them. In true entrepreneurial spirit, Jay’s decision in 1999 to start Sylvina Consulting as a direct selling consulting company was driven by what he saw was a need for answers, advice, and solutions.

He traveled to South Africa in 2015, 2016, and 2017 to conduct workshops on compensation plan design and recognition programs for member companies of the South African Direct Selling Association.

In 2017, Jay spoke at the Canadian Direct Sellers Association Meeting on the importance of recognition.

More than just a compensation plan expert, Jay is exceptionally skilled at advising new and established companies on business strategies. Before offering advice or solutions, he asks important questions to understand each client’s specific concerns and goals.
