TEAM BASIC TRAINING COURSE

This Basic Training Course teaches the fundamental principles of Network Development, which
have empowered ordinary people to accomplish extraordinary feats. This course imparts the
best practices of the most successful people in the field of Interactive Marketing, otherwise known
as “word-of-mouth-advertising.”

This course takes into consideration the different orientation of the people who are enrolled in it.
We have tailor-fitted the modules to all those people who have the common desire to achieve
their greatest vision – whether that is financial freedom, a business of their own, greater control of
their life or enjoying more time together with their loved ones than ever before.

Basic Training is designed for you to effectively apply the principles as you develop your
organization within the QuestNet business opportunity.

Are you sure you want to continue with this course? If you are not yet totally convinced, then
consider this straightforward, powerful quotation,

“IF IT IS TO BE …. IT’S UP TO ME!”

YOU ARE THE MASTER DESIGNER OF YOUR LIFE. Therefore, you must be the one to take
the necessary action to put the process into motion for achieving your greatest desires in life.

This Basic Training Course consists of four inter-related modules that can have a profound
positive effect on the success of your QuestNet business, and your life.

However, it is only when you apply yourself wholeheartedly toward your objectives that you will
meet with a favorable reward.

This Basic Training Course will show you the way ……

THE RIGHT ATTITUDE

Getting started with the right attitude, and a positive frame of mind, will determine how effective a
leader you will become and consequently, how large an organization you will be able to build.

Success in Networking is:

 15% skill and

 85% attitude

Starting with the right attitude means building a solid foundation upon which you can build your
life and your business. The best foundation for this business is YOU. In the context of the
QuestNet opportunity, our attitude is the internal predisposition; we have to react either positively
or negatively toward this business.

Based on information gathered over a long period of time, there are 8 primary reasons people fail
in this industry. All of them are related to the attitude we display. These are explained here in
Module One as the “8 Pitfalls.”

Take the time to familiarize yourself with the 8 Pitfalls. These are the things you must avoid in
order to succeed in this business.

THE 8 PITFALLS:
1. THEY DON’T TAKE THE BUSINESS SERIOUSLY.

Examples:

 Some people will look down on the QuestNet business simply because it is related to the
network marketing industry.
 Many networkers have given the industry a bad name when they tried and failed. But the
failure of some is not the failure of the entire industry. Many many people have achieved
phenomenal success!
 People think that to qualify as a “real business,” large capital is required and a huge
amount of pre-opening efforts is necessary.

This is definitely NOT so.

Let’s imagine that you are planning to start a traditional business ….

If you are SERIOUS about your business, much preparation will have taken place before the
actual opening. You may have had to make a feasibility study, undergo training, even go back to
school for a few semesters … or to take out a bank loan, find and hire the right people, or choose
a good location, and so on….

No business is guaranteed to make money, yet most traditional businessmen will go through all
this trouble, and the high financial risks involved, to help ensure that their particular business will
succeed!

Unlike in the traditional business, with QuestNet you can have all the benefits of a large business
but without the high financial risks.
However, like in most other businesses, you must still take this business seriously before
expecting to earn from it, let alone earn a lot from it!

You must take this business seriously, then and only then it will PROSPER!
Yes, the QuestNet opportunity is simple, but your business will grow into a global organization
whose CEO is YOU, if, and only if, you will put your heart into it – SERIOUSLY!

Taking the business seriously means:

 You should begin learning solid facts about the QuestNet business and the networking
industry. Then make the decision to put your resources of time and money into your
business.
 You must start planning your day-to-day activities to make your business grow, through
learning the art of time-management.
 You should endeavor to do the necessary tasks to keep your business thriving.

2. THEY DOUBT.

Doubt is “double-mindedness” as opposed to belief, which is called “single-mindedness.”

Double-mindedness leads to confusion, which can compound your doubt that this business really
can be successful for you. Single-mindedness, on the other hand, leads to clarity of thinking
which strengthens your belief in this business.

We will show you, through the Basic Training Course, how to develop single-mindedness of
purpose so that your belief in this business remains rock-steady.

Perhaps the first time you heard the QuestNet presentation, you believe that you could do this
business and it could work for you. However, as soon as you talked about it to others and they
asked you many things that you did not know the answers to, then you started to doubt whether
you really could do this business after all. The first seeds of doubt were sown. In this case,
doubt became the number one killer of your business, and also your dreams.

Doubt can easily creep into your head if you are not careful. This business is done in such a way
that you will talk to people about the company, its products, its compensation plan, and all facets
of the business. However, as you encounter difficult questions and objections, do not be
discouraged because such comments only indicate that you need to learn about this business
more thoroughly.

Through TRAINING & EDUCATION, your doubts will begin to vanish and be replaced by strong
conviction.

Sometimes it takes many hours or even days to wash away even just the simplest of negative
talk. Therefore, as much as possible, avoid DREAM-STEALERS – those people who infuse
negative thoughts about your business.

Instead, try to talk only to people who have already experienced success in QuestNet in order to
strengthen your belief about all aspects of this business.

Opposite of doubt is BELIEF or FAITH. There are several ways to develop a deep belief in this
business.

Increase your knowledge and understand all aspects of the business thoroughly. Your level of
belief is directly proportional to your knowledge level.

Learn from your mentors the techniques that will increase your ratio of success.

Mix with the believers – belief is contagious.

Stay away from dream-stealers – those who want you to remain “average” like them.

One main cause of doubt is REJECTION. Start looking at it in this light:

No one has a 100% success rate! Thus, use the SW Principle:

Some Will, Some Won’t, So What, Someone else is Waiting.

Then MOVE ON!

Rejection is part of this business. Instead of getting discouraged, learn all you can from the
experience.

Learn WHY you were rejected.

Another main cause of doubt is LACK OF KNOWLEDGE. To defeat this you must:

Master the QuestNet business – your knowledge will multiply.

Master the QuestNet business – your doubt will die and your belief will soar!
Master the QuestNet Business!

3. THEY DON’T SPEND TIME TO MASTER THE BUSINESS.

To succeed, your goal is MASTERY!

This is both getting TRAINED by successful leaders and mentors, and LEARNING by oneself
through books, audio cassettes, videos, seminars and interacting with other successful people. It
is doing your best and striving for excellence in all your attempts. Mastery is a continuous
process of learning.

Many people groan at the thought of studying all over again. If you are one of these people, here
are 2 choices available to you:

1. You can ignore this opportunity and this training course and continue for another 10 years
keeping at what you have been doing for the past few years and expect no significant
change in your lifestyle.

2. You can embrace the QuestNet opportunity, learn from the training courses and say to
yourself: Ten years from today will happen whether I plan for it or not. I want to be able to
look forward to my future. I have wasted enough years of my life. I have left too many
opportunities pass me by. Now, I will finally take action!

Question:

Which of these two will you choose for yourself?

The sensible way to start any business is learning about it. The more time you invest in
educating yourself, the greater mastery of the business you will gain. And when you have
mastered your business, it is then that success will manifest for you.

Learn everything you can about:

The Industry: Network Marketing

The Company: QuestNet
The Plan: RSCP: Retail Sales Compensation Plan

Learn about your “ABCs” from the Right Sources of Knowledge:

 The upline leaders

 Your mentor
 Good books on relevant topics

Learn through the Internet:

The QuestNet website: www.quest.net

The V-Team website: www.the-v.net
Some Industry websites: www.nmlifestyles.com or www.thenetworkmarketingmagazine.com

Ameen Radhi Ahmed – HY441234 4

+973 36402121 – ameen.radhi@gmail.com
The more you know:

 The more confident you will become.

 The better you can represent the QuestNet business.
 The more able you will be to handle questions and objections.
 The greater the number of people you can positively influence.

The key to SUSTAINED growth is training your leaders:

You must be willing to get yourself trained so that you can train others. How can you train your
leaders if you, yourself, are not trained?

You must be willing to spend a lot of time training others, so they can become leaders in their own
right.

This is a nurturing business:

Nurture people. Help develop them into leaders.

The whole process takes TIME and EFFORT, but is well worth it.

Leadership is a learned process that generates MOMENTUM. Create momentum in your

organization by focusing on these three key leadership areas:

 The positive attitude of the leader.

 The positive atmosphere of the organization.
 The positive accomplishments of the people, as a whole.

4. THEY THINK THIS IS A “GET RICH QUICK SCHEME.”

The QuestNet business has nothing in common with any “get-rich quick” schemes. Sure, it is
possible in QuestNet for a TCO to achieve great wealth in a short period of time, but you can be
sure that these people have put in a tremendous effort and time into building their business. The
bottom-line is, it takes time, and much effort to build a successful QuestNet organization.

If you want to have a large organization and reap the financial benefits, you must be willing to pay
the price.

Be willing to miss out on a few parties, a few movies, a few golf games (or whatever it is you do
for recreation) for a few months.
Design your life for the next few years around the activities that can bring you success, not the
habitual practices that will keep you right where you are.

4 Stages of Business Growth:

 Foundation Stage (Weeks 1 to 4)

 Concentration Stage (Months 1 to 12)
 Momentum Stage (Years 2 to 5)
 Stability Stage (Financial Freedom)

The Foundation Stage:

Ameen Radhi Ahmed – HY441234 5

+973 36402121 – ameen.radhi@gmail.com
This stage is where you are creating a foundation to build your business. It is the period when
you are getting your initial training, gathering knowledge, and establishing a game plan for your
own business. During this stage, you should design the blueprint from which your budding
organization will be built.

The Concentration Stage:

This is where you get the ball rolling with six months to one year of concentrated effort. During
this stage, you attend multiple training sessions and BOMS and perform numerous one-on-ones,
establish your own V-Cells and gain leadership skills. At this point, there may seem to be little
visible results.

The Momentum Stage:

This stage revolves around rapid leadership both for yourself and the leaders you are nurturing
within your group. Finally, you will begin to see tangible results. This stage usually lasts from 2 to
5 years depending on the amount of intensity you show in developing his or her organization.

The Stability Stage:

If you make it this far through your focused, consistent efforts, this stage is when the maximum
rewards are found. You will have reached a state of financial freedom where your lifestyle can be
second to none. You will have established leaders in place and your organization will have a life
of its own, growing and producing income! Always do your best. What you plant now, you will
harvest later.

The Law of Sowing and Reaping:

There is a universal principle, which states that we reap the results of what we have sown. If we
have sown the seeds of hardwork, success and abundance, then eventually we will reap the life
of successful achievement that we are striving to attain.

5. THEY HAVE NO FOCUS.

Focus is being fixed on something that needs to be done. No amount of obstacles will lead to
distraction from achieving the desired result.

Focus, persistence and consistency go hand in hand toward success.

Just imagine that you saw someone throw a diamond worth one million dollars in a large field,
and you were given the chance to retrieve it for yourself.

How long would you spend looking for it? A day? A week? A month? Or maybe even longer?
You’d spend as long as it takes to find it, because you know that it’s there!

In doing so, you would have displayed the two ingredients of success: FOCUS & PERSISTENCE.

For you to succeed in any endeavor, you must have focus; you must be persistent and consistent.

Ameen Radhi Ahmed – HY441234 6

+973 36402121 – ameen.radhi@gmail.com
Never mind if you cannot work on your business everyday. That’s not the primary elements of
success. If you only have Saturdays to do this business, then work on it every Saturday
consistently.

Consistency is a major key component, a close relative of focus and persistence.

The number one rule of success: FOCUS ON YOUR STRENGTHS!

 Tiger Woods is the world’s no. 1 by focusing on golf.

 Levi Strauss focuses on making denim jeans.
 Kodak focuses on the camera, film and developing industry.

Decide that you want to succeed in your business, and then focus on doing what is necessary to
be successful:

Learn to say “NO” to those activities, which interfere with your long-range objectives.

Study the art of time-management and prioritize your life.

Focus on prioritizing your life by following Pareto’s Law, also known as the 80-20 Principle.

Pareto’s Law states that 80% of results come from 20% of the actions involved. This can be
interpreted to mean that only 20% of the tasks, which you choose to spend your time on, will
produce 80% of the results you seek.

Examples of what you should focus on for maximum results in building a successful QuestNet
business:

 Prospecting
 Presenting one-on-one’s
 Attending BOMs
 Training
 Mentoring
 Developing leaders then V-Cells
 Personal Development

Here’s something to remember:

When it comes to achieving your dreams and goals, you will achieve more in less time by
identifying your 20% of priority tasks and activities and spending the greater part of your time
working on them.

6. THEY DON’T KNOW HOW TO PRESENT THE BUSINESS EFFECTIVELY.

The ability to effectively present the QuestNet business opportunity is one of the primary keys to
accomplishments and success.

The chances of people joining your organization depends on how good (or bad) your business
presentation skills are.

Imagine how many opportunities you will lose if you are dependent on others to present for you.
Conversely, imagine how convenient it would be for you to be able to present anytime, anywhere,
to anyone (worldwide) because you know how to present your business the way it should be
presented.

Ameen Radhi Ahmed – HY441234 7

+973 36402121 – ameen.radhi@gmail.com
If you don’t know how to present the business properly, people won’t take you seriously. It makes
sense that you cannot teach what you first don’t know. Turn this negative around by becoming an
expert at presenting this business to others. Knowing what to say and knowing what NOT to say
are vital aspects of making an effective presentation.

Benefits of knowing how to present:

 You can bring the business anywhere worldwide. Take advantage of the fact that
QuestNet is a truly global business.

 You can expand your business at your own pace.

7. THEY HAVE NO VISION.

Without vision, people perish!

Vision is something about yourself, others and your environment that you can see clearly in your
mind happening in the future. It is a state of being and not of becoming. It is a finished product
and not something that’s still in the process of making.

All success starts with a vision.

Success is a choice. Having a vision gives you inspiration, which can lead you on to great
achievement.

Your vision is your leader, your motivator, and the power that keep enthusiastic about your
business.

Before you start to teach and support the people in your organization, you must make sure that
they have a VISION for the business that is as powerful and passionate as yours.

A vision will do the following:

 Determines your direction.

 Induce internal motivation.
 Help you to overcome obstacles.
 Determine your work ethic.

The following exercise is a process that needs to be completed to give new TCOs an
understanding of their vision.

As a new TCO, you must know what your reasons are for doing the QuestNet business. What
are your “burning desires” that will light fires of inspiration to keep you on developing your
business.

Decide on these compelling reasons for you, being a TCO, to do the QuestNet business.

Examples:

 To be in a position to be able to help others financially.

 To be able to resign from my present job.
 To earn a large residual income.

Anchor your vision to VALUES.

Ameen Radhi Ahmed – HY441234 8

+973 36402121 – ameen.radhi@gmail.com
Values give a person’s life solid foundations. It can be said that the achievement of true success
is firmly anchored to enduring values. Those who seek a successful life must have a clear idea of
what values are most important to him or her.

They must then decide to live by these values no matter how smooth or rough their journey
through life. These values will direct the TCO on the right course and will define what kind of a
person they ultimately become.

Make vision for building a tremendous QuestNet organization so strong and so magnificent that
the facts of the company pale into significance in comparison with your dream. When you have
the kind of vision that can motivate people into life-changing action, then you will have a business
that grows and prospers.

8. THEY HAVE NO CLEARLY DEFINED GOALS.

Goals are definite, tangible results that you want to achieve at a specific point in the future.

Goals are the road maps that guide you along your journey of life and show you what is
attainable. They are dreams with definite dates for accomplishment. In relation to vision, goals
are milestones that indicate whether your vision will become a reality.

Vision answers the question: What do I want to be?

Whereas goals answer the questions: How do I become what I want to be?

In relation to your business, what is it that you want to accomplish during your lifetime, and how
will you do it? Isn’t it that you want to achieve a level of financial independence that your dreams
can come true?

Your financial future in this business will be determined by what you do (or don’t) over the next
few months.

Ask yourself this vital question:

What specific written goals have you established for your QuestNet business?

Goal setting is the single most important positive action of your life. Focus your goals on what
you want your organization look like one month from now, then six months from now, then one
year from now, then three years from now.

Why not come up with a Master Plan for your own organization within the QuestNet business and
spells out what you want to achieve from this business 25 years from now.

Yes! Design your life for maximum achievement around a long-range goal.

Many people have never hit a target in their lives simply because they do not know where their
target is! Ensure your targets (goal) are SMART!

S - Specific
M - Measurable
A - Attainable
R - Readable
T - Time-framed

Ameen Radhi Ahmed – HY441234 9

+973 36402121 – ameen.radhi@gmail.com
(S) Specific Goals:

Don’t just say you will earn lots of money doing the QuestNet business. How much do you intend
to earn, and by when?

Don’t just say you want a large organization. How many TCOs do you want in your group, and by
when?

Don’t just say you want a new car. What type of car? What model?

(M) Measurable Goals:

You must have an organization you can gauge your progress toward your goal. This is done by
establishing a schedule for your goals. At any specific time, you must be able to tell whether or
not you are on target, whether you have achieved what you set out to do. This way, you can
adjust your actions accordingly.

(A) Attainable Goals:

Make your objective realistic. Your target must be high enough that it will inspire you, but not so
high that you will never attain it. Goals should keep us working toward them enthusiastically. It
would make no sense to set a goal that you know is impossible to achieve.

On the other hand, your goal must not be too easy either.

(R) Readable Goals:

Write them down! Your written goals will create within you a burning inspiration. They will
motivate within you a greater utilization of your talents and abilities. Your written goals are the
road maps that will guide you towards attaining your objectives in life. Writing crystallizes
thoughts!

(T) Time-framed Goals:

Goals are dream with deadlines. You need to put a specific date on each one for when you
intend on reaching them.

The simple act of deciding exactly when you will achieve certain targets sets into motion powerful
forces that make your goal a REALITY!
