The "Eavesdrop Approach."

Do you have trouble getting prospects on an opportunity presentation teleconference call? Are they afraid of being "sold" by listening to the sales presentation? Relax your prospects by offering to have them listen to a "training call." They can listen to one of your teleconference trainings without the fear of being "sold." This is a great way to involve your MLM leads and prospects without creating resistance. If you work hard to find MLM leads, why not do your best to help them see your business in a stress-free way?

Stupid things we say.

Q. Why don't prospects see what we see? A. Because of what we say and what we do. For example, when we say "financial freedom" - our prospects think an insurance salesman is approaching. When we say "time freedom" - our prospects know we're telling a lie because nobody has any free time anymore. When we say "residual income" - our prospects know that residual means "leftover stuff that nobody wants." Our prospects will see the same vision that we see -- if we communicate that vision clearly. So let's not tell our prospects: "If you work hard, you can retire in five years." Let's describe it this way instead: "My friend is going to college for five years to become a professional. At the end of those five years, he graduates. Then he will start his career. Another friend is building his network marketing business for five years. At the end of those five years, instead of starting a career, he will retire." Notice how the second example helps our prospects to see what we see? Remember, it's what we say and what we do that makes the difference.

Does your network marketing company make you successful?

Good question. Many new distributors in MLM think that choosing a different MLM company will make them successful. These MLM distributors think that success is "outside" of them, and that the external factors will make the difference. But success in network marketing is an "inside job." You have to learn some skills. And if you don't have skills, changing MLM companies just means that you'll be unsuccessful in a different company. If you can't recruit now, changing companies won't fix that. In every network marketing company there are some successful distributors, and some unsuccessful distributors. So it is not the company that makes the difference. Learn how to prospect, learn how to sponsor, learn how to build ... that makes the difference. Then you can be successful anywhere you choose :)

"Quitters" tip for fresher leads.

I don't know why distributors keep buying MLM leads. It's like being addicted to "crack". Why? Everytime you need to expand your business, you have to buy more leads. If that is the only way you know how to get leads, you are an addict, held hostage by the MLM lead seller. But this post isn't about how to create your own fresh leads. This post is how to be more effective if you are caught in the trap of having to buy leads. So let's see how we can be more effective against our competition when we buy MLM leads that are being sold hundreds of times to our competitors. A distributor buys some MLM leads. That was the easy part. MLM leads are cheap. However, the follow-up time and effort are expensive. So what will most distributors do? Quit. They start with the "A" names . . . then "B" . . . and by the time they get to leads that start with the letter "C" - they're already thinking of quitting. So if you want to talk to fresher MLM leads, untouched by low-energy quitters, do this: When you get your list of MLM leads, start at the bottom. Start with the letter "Z." Most quitters never get this far and these MLM leads are virtually untouched.

Great signature files.

A cheap and easy way to send people to your home page is to use attention-getting signature files. Don't use boring signature files such as: * The world's best home-based business opportunity with lifestyle enhancement features. Go to: http://www.boringopportunitypage.com/1234/id=j2kt4 Now, that's bad. Instead, use your imagination. Make a signature file that creates curiosity and interest. Here are a few examples: * Click here to see a picture of my wife's stomach. * Click here to see a picture of my boss' face when I told him I quit. * Click here to see a picture of the new car I won. See the difference? And all this is free. Yet, of all the emails that I personally receive, only 50% use a signature file. Time to make a signature file or improve the current signature file, right? This is a way to create free MLM leads for your business.
