The Dachshund is an elongated, vigorous, muscular dog with short legs. This is a member of the hound family. In fact, the name Dachshund is German for “badger dog,” indicating why these dogs were originally bred – to hunt badgers. Due to the long, narrow build, they are sometimes referred to as a wiener dog or a sausage dog. This is a lively breed with a friendly personality and keen sense of smell. A very intuitive dog, the Dachshund is now most commonly seen as a companion rather than a hunter.

The Dachshund puppies is well-balanced with bold and confident head carriage and intelligent, alert facial expression. Their head is elongated, their skull is slightly convex, and their long muzzle features a robust set of jaws. Their teeth close in a scissors bite and their oval-shaped eyes are dark in color. They have arched prominent eyebrows and long ears that are mobile and hang toward the cheeks. His hunting spirit, good nose, loud tongue and distinctive build make him well-suited for below-ground work and for beating the bush. They have a wide variety of colors and patterns. They can be single-colored, single colored with spots (“dappled”), and single-colored with tan points plus any pattern. Dachshunds also come in Piebald. The piebald has a white background with various shades of brown. The dominant color is red, the most common along with black and tan.

When looking for dachshund puppies, you will have three varieties to select from, these being the long haired, the short haired, and the wired haired. Each of these is also available in two different sizes. The standard or normal size is between 16 and 32 pounds and the miniature size is up to eleven pounds. The Longhaired Dachshund has a long and straight coat, with hair slightly feathered and longer on the underbelly, ears, chest, and legs. The Smooth Coat has a straight, smooth, short, and glossy coat that should all be of equal length along the body of the dog. The Wirehaired has a coat of broken appearance with wiry, coarse, and harsh hair. All Dachshund varieties are average shedders.

The dachshund’s temperament may vary greatly from dog to dog. Long-haired dachshunds have a calmer, intelligent character inherited from the spaniel. Wire-haired dachshunds have much of the terrier’s spunky personality. The Dachshund is naturally free from “doggy” odor.

The grooming requirement of different varieties is also different. The long-haired Dachshund requires daily combing and brushing, and the wire-haired Dachshund needs professional grooming at least twice per year. The smooth-haired Dachshund’s coat should be wiped down with a clean, damp cloth. The Dachshund has the tendency to become jealous, however can do very well with many other toy breeds in the home providing they are not snippy.

The Dachshund is an all around friendly dog, is very outgoing, and is sure to steal the hearts of everyone he meets. They are an active breed, both outdoors and indoors, and they enjoy going for walks and playing in the park. They are perfectly happy without a yard, but they should be given at least a bit of exercise per day. They’re a long-lived breed, which can live up to 16 years or more with proper care. Because they are such social creatures, they don’t do well as outdoor dogs – they need to be with their humans.

Mr Paul Zane Pilzer, author of The Wellness Revolution, predicts that the health and wellness industry will be a trillion dollar industry in the next few years. Since then there are so many new MLM companies and traditional supply chains are rushing in to occupy this market.

As a distributor for MLM Company, these are few key considerations that you must understand.
A healthy network marketing organization should consist of business builders and consumers. Eight out of ten prospects you approach will end up as a consumer for your products. As a distributor, you are paid for the products that sold to your network, they contributes to your stable income. If you have a consumable product, then what you want is repeat order month after month. Your monthly commission will large dependent on the repeat orders from these consumers initially.

So how do you ensure your prospects choose to purchase from you instead of traditional chain like GNC?

I think the key differentiation factor is to be different from them.

What can you do?

1) You should establish trust and credibility with your prospects. As a distributor, you must be knowledgeable about your products or know someone who has the knowledge. Your role is an advisor in helping your prospects to solve their health problems. You do not want to come across as someone to push products to make a sale. You may get the initial orders but they will not buy from you again. You have just lost a life time customers. It is very time consuming and expensive to find new customers who make one time purchase only.

2) You want to position yourself as an expert by offering useful and relevant information. It is important not to offer information too early in an interaction without knowing the needs of customer.

3) It is important to establish that your customer is looking for a solution to their problem. There are people who have learned to live with their problem and they have stopped looking for solution. People have their own change list with their priorities on it. I have seen so many distributors trying to push their products to customers who do not think they need them.

4) Remember you are not a medical professional, and you are not supposed to make any medical claim. This is not allowed by most government agencies as all wellness products are listed as alternative treatment. Another reason for you not to make any claim because individual has different body response with the products. If you claim that your products will help to lower their blood pressure but it did not happen. You will instantly lose your credibility and trust easily when this happen. And most of the people are very sceptical and consider these as ‘hype’.

These advices seem to be common sense but it is not commonly applied. The next time when a distributor approach you, just be aware how many mistakes that they made that turned you off.

I think it is time to raise the professional standard of network marketing profession. Let apply what you have just learned, I am sure you will be on your way of building a healthy network. I will share with you more advance strategies in the next coming issue
