I have never had such a response to anything in these ezines like we have had with this PassionFire study on Millionaire Recruiters…

WOW!

And we have been swamped with emails for copies of the study…we may release it at a later date, but we appreciate the kind interest and comments…

This week we are going to cover:

“The MLM Millionaire’s Big 3 Recruiting Secrets.”

All the Millionaires which I chatted with and interviewed had their own flair and processes…which is what makes Network Marketing great…the eclectic nature of the education one can get…

But after interviewing them and seeing what they all had to say, there were 3 commonalities between them all as far as what they focused on and how they saw things…

Millionaires in this business are different… VERY Different…..

In their work ethic, focus, activity level, belief and determination to make things happen…and they make things happen all the time…

But 3 things really stuck out about them all, and it really made an impression on us to find out that they perceive things differently than the average distributor…

That is the reason they became Millionaires…and they should be modeled in most every aspect…

The “Big 3” MLM Secrets that we discovered.

1) “Millionaires don’t wait for something to happen…they are too busy MAKING something happen…”

One top earner from Excel told me that she took her new folks by the hand, and led them down a path that was all about activity and results…she didn’t wait on them to go do something…she took them and DID something WITH THEM….(DID YOU GET THAT?)

Another number one earner told me that he gets his distributors to “hit the ground running…because they have to keep up with me!” This number one earner said that he NEVER waits for his phone to ring…he goes out and MAKES it ring from all that he does…with his folks and his personal recruiting…

Another number one earner said…”This is NOT a waiting game…it is a WINNING game, and the average MLM distributor plays the waiting game…but not my people…we are focused on winning at recruiting…and let the others who wait get the crumbs we leave….”

WOW!!!What an attitude and focus!!! This Intensity at making something happen permeated every Millionaire we chatted with…no exceptions…and many folks who we chatted with were constantly interrupted with 3 way calls on their cell phones and pages…

Their whole demeanor said: MAKE SOMETHING HAPPEN!

2) “Millionaires don’t count the calls…they only count the applications….”

I was amazed at the numbers that these folks ran even when they were part time..(we covered this a couple of weeks ago)…and we discovered that MLM Millionaires don’t count the calls…rarely if ever…

As one millionaire so aptly put it… “Count the calls? you gotta be kidding…I just call till I score…” Asked if he had any notion of how long he sits and makes calls… “All night…doesn’t everybody?”(DID YOU GET THAT????)

MLM Millionaires see what they do as the Norm….not anything special…they just call and keep calling, never minding or caring about the numbers…only waiting till they “score” and recruit someone…

The Power of ENOUGH in Network Marketing and Direct Sales.
As another top earner said…”I’m too busy making phone calls to count how many I have made…I am only interested in one number…ENOUGH. And I know I have hit that when I have recruited someone…and I do nearly everyday….”

ENOUGH???? You gotta LOVE IT! What Focus! What determination…is it any wonder she earns 100,000 a month? I hope you guys are GETTING THIS!

3) “Millionaires see Negatives as the Ultimate Positive”

As one number one earner said…”Negatives? WHAT negatives? I never get any….I only get an answer…and that answer from my prospect is either “I GET IT”….or “I DON’T GET IT”….and if they don’t…who cares? I got it, and that is all that matters! And I will find those who DO get it!”

Again…DID YOU GET THAT?? What a focus and perception! A top earner for Mary Kay said…”There is nothing but positive with recruiting….either people are POSITIVE about this business…or I am POSITIVE I don’t want to work with them…”

WOW! What a great mindset and it is no wonder she earns a TON of money every year…to her….there are NO negatives…

There are people Who are NOT for MLM.
One female top earner for a company said…”The real winners in MLM understand that there are more people who are NOT for this business, then are….and Millionaires get rich by NOT caring who is or who isn’t for the business…it doesn’t matter…all that matters is they MUST find one who is…today….”

As you can see…the “Big 3” that all MLM Millionaires had in common in many instances border profound…

I would suggest you embracing these 3 principles that ran through all the interviews, and start modeling their Focus, Mindset, and Vision they have for their business…

It is called “The MLM Millionaire Perspective…” next week… More about this….

“Working the MLM Millionaire Numbers….”

Millionaire.

Has a nice ring to it….doesn’t it? We interviewed a lot of them for this project, and found some interesting stats on how they perceive, and work “the numbers” in MLM…

Most people have a fantasy about becoming a millionaire in network marketing…but that’s all it truly is… Just a fantasy that lays in the mind of folks that most never even try to engage…

As one number one earner said…

“The difference in me and most is that my Vision for becoming a millionaire was so crystal clear…and I didn’t drive it…it drove me…it was something that was a calling almost…and it was never a fantasy…but a fanatical urging that wouldn’t go away….”

Hmmm…. Fanatical Urging…that wouldn’t go away… He said that it simply became a PASSION in his life… THAT is a CLUE!!!!! To what it takes to become a big success in MLM…

Most see a fantasy…not a fanatic…as another number one earner said…”If people would get as excited about their company as they do a football game….they would be rich within 3 years…”

Excitement in MLM.
INFERNOSecret:

If you are more excited about a football game than your business…you will fumble in MLM eventually…

Another top earner said, “It’s amazing how people yell at baseball or softball games, and then become strangely silent about their future,…as if someone else was determining it…”(CLUE!!!!!)

The sad part….someone else usually is….

What was surprising is the perception with some folks that Millionaires in MLM got “lucky”…and found the right people who did the work… In rare instances that is true…but most millionaires I chatted with had a differing perspective on that…as well as the activity level that needs to be done when recruiting…

The most astonishing fact we found was that Millionaires were “reality based” in understanding the TRUE numbers it takes for massive success… as most folks are Fantasy based…they think they can make 20 phone calls and get rich..

One top earner said,” All I knew was I had to talk to 1000 people…that was what i was told to do…so I was on a mission to do that…and it ended up over 3000…”(CLUE!!!!!!)

Now she says…”I do what I want when I want, for how long I want with my kids….it is a miracle!”

Here is a breakdown of what we found in the activity of the average, Successful,, and millionaire distributor…(from over 1400 responses and interviews)

(all numbers part time…the millionaire numbers are what they averaged when they were part time…THAT will open your eyes!!!!!)

The Numbers of The MLM Study on Success.
Hours worked a week: Average: 6 Successful: 12 Millionaire: 25

Phone dials a day: Average: 5 Successful: 15 Millionaire: 50

People talked to a day: Average: 1 Successful: 7 Millionaire: 15

3 ways a day: Average: 1 Successful: 5 Millionaire: 15

Presentations a week:(phone-face to face) Average: 2 Successful: 8 Millionaires: 20

Leads collected a week: Average: 2 Successful: 20 Millionaires: 50

Follow-ups a day: Average: 1 Successful:4 Millionaire: 10

Sales a week; Average: 1 Successful:3 Millionaires: 7

No’s gotten in a week: Average: 2 Successful: 10 Millionaires: 25

Conference calls with guests weekly: Average: 0 Successful:2 Millionaires: 5

Number of applications weekly: Average: 0 Successful: 1 Millionaire: 4

The Part Time MLM Millioniare Activity Level.
And this is just part of the story…next week we will run the rest…as you can see, the part time millionaire activity level was as high as most full timers…

As you can see, activity with millionaires is much more intense that the average or even successful distributor…and in recruiting, the numbers worked were so much more….

How is your activity level? Are you close to even the “successful…?”

May I suggest you be…..

Why?

Your future lies within that answer… in MLM…and Home Busines.

next week…part 3….

Man.

That suckers finally finished! And what would it be worth to you to have a LOT of answers to what is working in network marketing recruiting today… A LOT!!!!!!

We did a 14 month study on what makes successful recruiters tick, how they recruit, what they do, what they think, what they don’t do, when they recruit, when they don’t, and many other situations and traits and tactics that are working out in the marketplace…

Many folks we chatted with were very open to the questions…a few were “too important-too successful” to do anything like this…. yeah…right….it’s called massive ego…

But a lot of the million dollar earners that we chatted with were great with their time and answers, and most truly wanted to be a part of this survey…

Their were some interesting findings, and some were shockers, but the education was staggering we got from it…and it really opened my eyes to a lot of talent out in the industry.. We will start with what we call the “5 C’s” of a great Recruiter…

All Million Dollar earners had the 5 C’s and also thought that it was impossible to succeed in MLM without them…

What are they?

The 5 C’s of MLM Recruiting.

 
1)”Conviction”.

Every Millionaire I chatted with had an incredible Conviction for their Product, Program, and Path they were taking… They were flat maniacs about what they were doing….(CLUE!!!!!)

They knew that they knew that they knew they had the best company and product out in the field…and it was felt in their recruiting…

They had such a strong Conviction that negative Responses were a sign of stupidity….and one top earner said…”I don’t have patience to work with stupid people…I’m glad they told me NO….”

Now THAT”S a Paradigm shift!!!!!! And the Conviction also was about other things in their life…what they went after…they blazed the trail and set it OnFire!

At PassionFire….we call it OnFire Passion! The Passion to make something happen no matter what…no matter what is said, done, or not done…a Passion that is so Hot that it is consuming…(CLUE!!!!)

How is your Conviction and Passion for what you are doing when you recruit…? As One top earner said….”If you cannot get passionate about what you are doing in MLM…then you must be passionate about mediocrity….” well said….

The Communciation Factor of All MLM MIllionaires.

2) “Communication”..

 The Millionaires I interviewed all had one thing in common…they were ALL Master Communicators! They had an uncanny ability to get their message across and also to be FELT! They had a Power in their Communication and a Power in their Words.

Their Focus was always the OTHER PERSON….(CLUE!!!!!!!!!) and they kept the conversation flowing in that direction…always focused on the other person…and what they wanted…. Yes, there were some exceptions, whose ego demanded center stage, but again, they were the exceptions…

They also Communicated more FREQUENTLY then the most, as they talked to a whole lot more people…(CLUE!!!!!!)….and they were very friendly in their Communication, and personable…and well liked…As one top earner said….”We get paid to talk to people…if you mess that up…your check is Toast!”

AMEN!!!!!!! You need to become a Master Communicator…if you do…you will have Mastered your paycheck!

3) “Consistency”….

The people we interviewed, ALL were day at a time, brick at a time consistent… Day in….Day out….they worked their business…methodically, relentlessly, absolutely… They had a Plan they followed and a Road map to where they were going…in writing….(CLUE!!!!)

They worked when they didn’t FEEL LIKE WORKING…..and worked when they had planned on it… The Millionaires I interviewed said that it was the one at a time day at a time focus that built their MLM business and they couldn’t ask their people to do what they were not doing…(CLUE!!!!!)

They also said that Consistency helped them get through the inevitable rough periods of this business, and also sharpened their skills dramatically…(CLUE!!!!!)

The Connection Factor in Recruiting in MLM.

4) “Connection….

” The top earners again, all had one thing in common…they CONNECTED to people in a powerful way…they all focused on finding a commonality to whom they were talking to….(CLUE!!!!) They all wanted to get the person smiling quickly, and often…they asked about the person and what was important to them, and then Connected to that value or dream…

They spent a large portion of the time simply becoming their prospects Friend….(MAJOR CLUE!!!!) and then driving that Connection deeper and more powerful… As one number one earner said….”All we want to do is befriend the prospect…it is easier to recruit a friend then a stranger…”

And also, they all had a DEEPER CONNECTION to the Company’s vision and values…then the average distributor…they were not JUST a distributor…but a PARTNER to the MLM vision…..and that made them MAGNETIC!!!!!

5) “Caring….

” The earners I interviewed all had a sense of caring and Compassion about them…again, there were a few exceptions, but not many… All had a focus of helping people and empowering them…and caring about what was best for the person.. As one top earner said…”If you don’t care…neither will the prospect…” AMEN!!!!!!

Caring was a trait that most whom was interviewed viewed as a necessity, not an option….and the few who only cared about their paycheck….most averaged almost 50% less in their check then those who did…(CLUE!!!!)

Many said that people can feel your caring, and are attracted to that…and they can also feel your selfishness, and are repelled by that… Caring was a BASE trait that all said was a HUGE factor in their success….

What do you care about…..Paycheck…or people?

What’s Best…or what’s for you?

What is the right thing….or what you think is the right thing for your paycheck?

Your answers to those point to your destiny in this Network Marketing industry…

These are the “5 C’s” of Master MLM Recruiting that was found in the PassionFire Recruiting Project….

Where do you stand with

Next Week…..Part 2….
