If you duplicate here, your down-line will also duplicate in the same fashion and that is what will make your organization strong.

Your down-line will profit if you take time to share your knowledge and mentor them. By sharing your knowledge and mentoring your down-line to achieve success, you become the leader. Knowledge and the willingness to teach others how, is what puts a person in the leadership position.

Success happens more quickly when you build a team. It is all about team work and teaching others. By teaching down-line to become successful, you also achieve your goals and everyone profits.
