Today, let’s focus the “Blue” Personality:
Blues make up 15% of the population.
Blues are open and direct. They are the party animals! You ask them a question and they don’t quit answering. They just keep going and going and going until you have to interrupt them to ask the next question. THAT is direct.
A Blue will tell you their life story, including all the gory details you never wanted to know.
The combination of open and direct means that a Blue is very confident in what they know and what they do. They can walk up to anybody and talk about anything. Blue loves being with people and is always the life of the party.
They see the big picture; sponsor lots of people fast; they need support to train and build their downline into a solid unit.

Some of their best features:
• excellent promoters
• enthusiastic
• bubbly
• motivating
• convincing
• the life of the party
• very creative
  

Some of their worst features:
• unorganized
• scattered
• poor on follow-up
• exaggerate
• short attention span
  

Relating to a Blue
Be pleasant and non assertive; open and sincere; supportive of their feelings; consistent and open; have fun. You gotta love ‘em!!
Mentoring a Blue
This person walks up, and you see flamboyant facial expressions, hand movements, body movements, arms moving, maybe a Hawaiian shirt. Something bright & flashy – jewelry, gold, a diamond ring, gold necklace. Anything flashy, a lot of movement, excited, excited, excited.
And they say “Mentor me!”
“OK. The reason you are so successful in life and in business is that you are an excellent promoter. You’re energetic, enthusiastic, motivating, convincing. You always see the big picture. You’re the life of the party, and You’re one of the most creative people on the planet.
You can create it, but you can’t build it. Your problem is, you are unorganized. You’re scattered. You’ve never balanced a checkbook in your life.
The first thing I’d do in mentoring you would be to help You start using systems to keep yourself organized. Then you won’t be so scattered. And you can focus on your follow-up. That can change Your life overnight.

With Mentoring For Free’s Personality Colors Training, we can teach you just that.
There are 4 Color Personalities that you’ll learn about. Blue, Yellow, Green and Red.
Yesterday we talked about the “Blue” Personality.
Today, let’s focus on the “Yellow” Personality.
Yellows make up 35% of the population. They are open and indirect. They are the nurturers.
You’ll find Yellow Personalities in fields like Nursing, Teaching & Social Work.
These are just amazing people. They are the best listeners. They’re dependable. They’re easy to get along with. They are team players. They are so patient and supportive and they’re nurturing.
They’re very open with their feelings, but they are indirect. In other words, you ask them a question, they answer, and then stop.
Yellows are polite and soft-spoken. They are happy with themselves. They enjoy life and they enjoy being alive. They dance to a different drummer. They don’t like confrontation. They hate any kind of bully.
When Yellows finally believe they can, they have built some of the largest Network Marketing Organizations.

Some of their best features:
• the best listeners
• dependable
• optimistic
• easy to get along with
• team players
• the most patient
• great at supporting others
• natural born nurturer
  

Some of their worst features:
• oversensitive
• take things personally
• agree with other people’s excuses
• get taken advantage of by others
• not goal oriented
  

Relating to a Yellow
Be flexible and positive; open and generous with your praise; supportive of their ideas and have fun.
Mentoring a Yellow
Now the person who comes up is casually dressed. They have Birkenstock sandals on, and blue jeans. Very casual. This is a comfortable person. They walk at a slower pace. They have an easy smile.
And they say “Mentor me!”
“OK. Here’s what I know about you. You are an amazing person. All your friends think you are the greatest listener they’ve ever known. You are dependable. You’re very patient. And you’re nurturing. You love people, and you’re a team player. You have some outstanding strengths.
There are some problems you need to work on. You’re oversensitive. You take things personally. You always conform. You’ll buy other people’s excuses. And You don’t ever set goals. You’re not goal-oriented.
So for me to help you, coach you, mentor you, I’d get You to understand how to not take things personally.

With Mentoring For Free’s Personality Colors Training, we can teach you just that.
There are 4 Color Personalities that you’ll learn about. Blue, Yellow, Green and Red.
Yesterday we talked about the “Yellow” Personality.
Today, let’s focus on the “Green” Personality:
Greens make up 35% of the population.
Understand something. When you’re talking to a Green, they’re trying to calculate and figure out ahead of you why you’re asking the question. So you need to take a breath. You need to slow down.
You can’t talk too fast with a Green. They are indirect & self-contained. They think they’re the smartest people on the planet. So what they do is, they try to figure out, calculate and analyze why you’re even asking them the question.
So ask the question and let it sink in before you go on. Slow down the pace. The indirect will not give you more information than they think you need. (Yellow & Green)
They enunciate their words correctly and they talk slower, so that while they’re talking, their mind is still figuring out why you’re asking the ques­tion. In fact, Greens spends so much time in their head, trying to figure things out, that they get paralysis by analysis.
Recognize that. Give Greens a breathing space when you talk to them.
Green expects you to listen to what they have to say. If you don’t listen to them, they’ll scratch you off their list. And never be late with a Green. If you have an appointment with them, be on time or early. One minute late is noticed and frowned on. Greens are very punctual people. They pride themselves on being punctual and correct.

Strengths:
• the most organized
• great planners
• dependable
• task persistent
• great on follow through
• accurate
• problem solvers
  

Weaknesses:
• perfectionists ­ very hard to please
• naturally pessimistic about everything
• paralysis by analysis – inability to make a decision, for fear of being wrong
  

Relating to a Green:
Be time disciplined; logical; prepared; respectful of rules; supportive of their thoughts; structured and well organized; precise.
Mentoring a Green:
A gentleman walked up and stopped. He read the big banner. His arms were crossed. He had a shirt with a breast pocket, pen in the pocket. He wore khaki green pants, a crease down the middle where they’d been ironed, and penny loafers.
He looked at me and ordered, “Mentor me!”
“If I was to be coaching you, I’d start working on Your weaknesses. Your weaknesses are that you overanalyze everything. You’ve lost a ton of money because of your inability to make a decision. You’ll sit there and think about it, think about it, analyze it, wonder why you shouldn’t do it, why the glass is halfempty.
“You have a problem with depression – you easily get depressed. You have a problem with loneliness. And you’re very pessimistic.
“But it’s amazing how many strengths You have. You’re one of the most organized people. You are an amazing planner. You’re a dependable problem solver. You are task persistent. You are amazing on follow through. And everything you do is accurate.
“But the problem you’ve struggled with your whole life is being pessimistic about everything. You have no belief that You will ever be a huge success in life. You’re always looking at why it’s not going to work. You think, ‘It’ll work for everybody else, but it’s not going to work for me.’
“You use a lot of words like try, maybe, could, possibly, we’ll see.
“And what I would do to coach you is to help you realize that You have to learn to be decisive. You have to learn to go with it, be tuned in to your gut feeling and go with it.
“The words you speak are critical, because you speak Your reality into existence. When you say negative things, you are actually putting those things into Your life. That’s exactly what you do. And that’s why You’re so unhappy.”

Do you think learning the skill of reading someone’s Personality can benefit you in your business?Wouldn’t it be cool to know what a prospect is thinking? Their likes and dislikes? What motivates them or turns them off?
With Mentoring For Free’s Personality Colors Training, we can teach you just that.
There are 4 Color Personalities that you’ll learn about. Blue, Yellow, Green and Red.
Yesterday we talked about the “Green” Personality.
Today, let’s focus on the “Red” Personality:
Reds make up 15% of the population.
A Red is very direct, like the Blue.
But what happens is, sometimes people think they’re being open, when they’re not. They are just very, very direct. Direct and self-­contained. They will go right to you and want to know why you are asking that question.
But then they’re also self-­contained, like the Green. They won’t show you their weakness. It’s critical to them that they keep that away from you.
Red is so direct in answering your question that you might think they’re being open with you. But they aren’t. They’re being direct, and they are going to control the conversation. They’re going to ask you a question, and don’t think you’re going to avoid the question. They will get their questions answered.
Red is money ­motivated, driven by money. Everything in their core revolves around money, success and being #1 in the company. Yellow isn’t at all focused on money, and they often have more of it than Red.
Red also demands a show of respect.
If a Red calls you and decides to join your network marketing business, don’t dare try to stick them under somebody else. They are going to be sponsored directly front­line to you, or not at all. “I don’t need anybody to burp me, diaper me and hold my hand. So don’t you think you’re going to put me under somebody else.”
So don’t go there.
Don’t think you’re going to coach Red because Reds are not coach­able.
You go out to eat with a Red; they try to order you to eat what they’re eating. If you meet with them in their office, they never tire of telling you how their company’s success depends entirely on their actions.

Strengths:
• the best negotiators
• have lots of energy
• risk takers
• confident
• natural born leaders
• action, not talk people
• independent
  

Weaknesses:
• Big ego guys
• Domineering
• Un-teachable
  

Relating to a Red:
Be practical; brief; assertive; to the point; supportive of their goals; respectful of their time; show strength.
If someone like that joins your business, just let them get on with it – they might build you a fantastic downline leg or leave you because they don’t like your style. Take your pick!
Mentoring a Red:
This section is purely hypothetical, because Red would NEVER ask anyone to mentor them. And if you try, they won’t pay any attention to you … because they are Red.
“It’s my way or the highway!”
So most Reds are not open to any coaching, even one little bit. Only when life has totally knocked them for a loop, then they may open up a bit to coaching.
Let’s say you’re dealing with THAT person. Here’s what you say: “You have great strengths. You are an amazing producer. You are the best negotiator. You have energy to burn. You are a risk taker, a leader. You have confidence. You take action. And You’re independent. You’ll just take right off and start doing it.
But there are problems, too. The first thing you need help with is your ego. You think you’re perfect. You think you’re always right. You think you’re the only one with an idea. But you’re not.
You are domineering. You are short-tempered. And the biggest problem you have is, You are just unteachable. The only time you can ever learn from anyone else is when you’ve had your butt kicked, when you’re down on the ground, down on your knees, and you reach up your hand. When you finally get there, THEN You are coachable.
The biggest thing that would make a huge difference in Your life is to understand the other personalities. They all have great value, equal to yours, and you don’t realize that.
This will totally change Your life. But the fact is, you’ll probably never do it – because you are Red.”
