WHAT IS MLM Recruiting?

What do you think MLM Recruiting is?

Do you understand the philosophy behind network marketing recruiting?

Would know that help your home business?

MLM Recruiting is an often misunderstood practice. It has been vilified in many respects by a lot of people.

And rightly so.

Many distributors/consultants in a home business DO NOT understand what mlm recruiting is, let alone how to do it. That lack of knowledge can and will HURT your mlm recruiting results and volume.

Many think that MLM Recruiting is getting people to enroll in their business so they can help the sponsor to make money.

Others think that MLM recruiting is a way they can drag people into their business so the sponsor does NOT have to work.

And still, others believe that MLM recruiting is part scam but yet they do it to make money off of people.

All the above are WRONG.

MLM recruiting is many things, but after 25 years in this great profession, I have come to the conclusion that there is ONE definition of MLM Recruiting that truly will define it as well as broaden the possibilities of it.

No, mlm recruiting is NOT a scam, or a way to earn money off of people.

Far from it.

MLM Recruiting is simply:

” The process of finding, educating, selecting, and helping the right people to take control of their future by owning their their own business.”

THAT is what MLM Recruiting is.

MLM Recruiting is a PROCESS- step by step- of educating the prospect about what your business is all about and then helping them decide if this is for them or not.

MLM Recruiting is about Finding, Educating, and Selecting. You prospect and FIND people to talk to, and educate them about what you have to offer, then select the ones that are right for this profession. They will identify who they are, and who they are not.

MLM Recruiting is about Helping the right people. Your goal is TO HELP people…but the RIGHT people who this business is FOR. There are people that your business is NOT for, and your job is to sift and sort through them to find the right ones.

MLM Recruiting is about Taking Control of your future. Control is critical to have of you ever want to establish wealth in your life. It is taking control of your time, actions, and where your future is headed.

MLM Recruiting is about owning your own business. You are recruiting prospects into your business because you want to help them own THEIR own business. It is about owning a business you work out of your home.

How does MLM Recruiting work?

It basically is a 4 step by step process:

1. Find.

You need to find people to talk to, and they are everywhere. You need to find the RIGHT people.

2. Educate.

You must create the exposures that will educate the prospect on what you do and what the whole vision is about. This can be done face to face, over the web, on social media, mobile recruiting, or in a public gathering, or in a home. It can vary, but the education process must take place, and it may take more than one exposure.

3. Follow Up.

You need to reconnect with the prospect and see where they are with what they have seen.

4. Select.

Often called “closing” I believe it is more that you select the people that you want to work with and with that mindset, you will find the right people in mlm recruiting.

MLM recruiting is a process, and an art. If you master mlm recruiting, you will find your success will explode in your network marketing home business.

MLM Training- How to Develop Your Inner Success Strengths

March 2, 2012 by Doug Firebaugh 23 Comments

mlm home business network marketing

MLM Success Strengths

Are there Success Strengths that you can develop for your network marketing business?

How can you take these and develop them in your home based business?

What kind of Strengths do you need to develop?

Developing Your Success Strengths.

You need to develop certain strengths along the way. Many distributors today work out of WEAKNESS not strength.

Why?

For the most part, they are taught that. They bring skills that did NOT work that well in the marketplace or their job, and then expect it to work in network marketing.

There are many different types of disciplines that you can develop and these disciplines can add and develop strength in what you do in your mlm business. But many times they are more focused on ACTIONS that you DO, not Thoughts that you THINK.

Thinking can be a STRENGTH or a Weakness. Often it is a Weakness in a distributors business.

What kind of Success Strengths do you need to develop?

These strengths would include:

1) Optimistic Thinking – about where we are going, ourselves, and life in general.

2) Success Habits – Develop ones that will empower Success, not stop it.

3) Skills and Specialized Knowledge – Identify the skills and knowledge that you will need to develop to create Success in your business.

What THOUGHTS will you need to develop? List them.

What HABITS will you need to develop? List them.

What SKILLS will you need to develop? List them.

Where is your BELIEF?

There is a difference between HAVING a goal and BELIEVING you will ACHIEVE the goal. You must BELIEVE that you can Succeed in NETWORK MARKETING. Belief is built by working your goals daily and being involved in them.

1) SEE in your mind the Success that you want.

2) CREATE a picture in real life of what that looks like – DREAM board.

3) READ your goals everyday and also a positive article or part of a book.

4) DECIDE that you will only surround yourself with positive and powerful people and things.

Evaluating Your Success Progress.

You need to ask these questions on a regular basis:

1) Where am I honestly with my goals and how is my progress?

2) What smaller goals should I have reached already?

3) Am I building my belief and strengths daily?

4) Do I SEE my goals being accomplished everyday?

5) Do I surround myself with people who will support me and encourage me?

6) Am I taking forward moving steps daily toward my goals?

7) What do I need to improve the most TODAY?

Make sure that you complete the Short Range, Intermediate Range, and Long Range Goal exercises. Do it with your NETWORK MARKETING sponsor, review it constantly and recognize and celebrate your accomplishments in your mlm home business.

MLM Social Media- 3 Powerful Social Media Recruiting Secrets

March 1, 2012 by Doug Firebaugh 28 Comments

Social Media Recruiting Secrets.

Is social media a part of your home business network marketing business?

Are you daily using social networking in your direct selling business?

How would you like 3 Golden Social Media Secrets for Network Marketing?

Here they are:

Social Media Recruiting Secret 1.

It is no longer just about creating a Transaction, but a Transition.

People in the New Marketplace are no longer wanting or looking for transactions, as that used to be the sole focus of marketers.

“Get the order!” used to be the motto.

But that went out with the cassette tape. Today, the new market is NOT looking just for transactions, but they are looking for Valuable Transitions.

Transitions leading to a better life.

Transitions leading to doing things better.

Transitions leading to living in a better place –inside and out.

Transitions elevating to a higher level of thinking and doing things in newer and more powerful ways.

Transitions leading to a place in their life that they used to only dream of.

And to do that, you must create a transition not only of moving the prospect from one place to another in their thinking-but also growing from one level of living to a more powerful one. If you can show a way that the prospect will GROW with the use of your product as well as membership in the “club,” they will willingly transition from their product they are using to yours. They will also be willing to transition from a listener to a participant, as long as they sense that you are being REAL with them.

The most powerful way to insure you create a transaction, is to engage a valuable transition. Take the prospect from where they are, and ELEVATE their hope and possibility of a better life to a higher level. ELEVATE their life to a potential more powerful lifestyle. LIFT up their hopes and dreams with powerful images and words and transition them to the level of where you want them to go. THAT is what the New market is looking for, and if you do that, your transactions will become the talk of your company.

Social Media Recruiting Secret 2.

It’s no longer just about Recruiting-but about Re-Creating.

Apple Ipod recreated how music was listened to.

Flip Video camera recreated how videos were taken and uploaded.

Youtube recreated how videos were watched.

Plaxo and Facebook recreated how people connected.

Twitter recreated how people communicated.

Web logs recreated how news was read.

Basecamp recreated how projects were done jointly.

Podcasting recreated how people learned.

And the list is almost endless in today’s marketplace. And no one had to be recruited. No one had to be pressured. Recreate something that will add value to life in a unique and powerful way and people will recruit themselves. You will not have to enroll anyone, as they will enroll themselves.

What is it that YOU can do, help with, or bring to the table that will help people recreate and resurrect their dreams in their mind and life?

What is it that your product or business can do that will help recreate how things are done, how people live, how people operate their business, and how income can be obtained?

Move beyond just being a distributor. Anyone can be a distributor or consultant. Move beyond the typical representative for a company.

Move up to a higher level of Home Business.

Move past where everyone else is and move to a place that most will never aspire for. Don’t just be a recruiter.

Become a Re-creator and help people recreate their life and living to be something they never thought possible.

Yes it will take some serious thought, but all great campaigns do.

Tell them how your products help recreate how life is lived.

Tell them how your products help recreate how nutrition is dispensed in their bodies.

Tell them how your skin care products help recreate a more beautiful look and feel.

Tell them how your anti aging products help recreate their lost youth.

Tell them how your travel products help recreate exciting relationships that have gone stale.

And tell them how your business can help recreate a dream that maybe they lost years ago of financial freedom.

Move up to a higher level of Recruiting – to the level of Re-creating. Then let your prospects recruit themselves.

Social Media Recruiting Secret 3:

It’s No Longer about what People Remember, but about how long people REMAIN – in the Feeling and Emotion.

People can remember things, names, events, products, places, movies, songs, and many other things. But all it is, is a memory. Memories for the most part, do not move people towards an action. It is just a great memory.

But feelings and Emotions do. People that get emotional about a product move themselves and others towards the product. People that like how they feel when they are using a product-will continue to use it. People who like how they feel when they are around you-will join you.

A secret about today’s marketplace is the secret of “Remaining in the Experience.” You MUST get people to remain in the feeling of the appointment or phone call long past the goodbye. People today want to FEEL and EXPERIENCE a product, website, song, movie, or restaurant, not just hear about it.

Products that make people feel better about themselves become instant hits. People that help people feel better about themselves become instant Successes. Do not market just benefits as often is espoused. That is for yesterday’s market. Move up to a higher level of Home Business and start marketing the EXPERIENCE of what your products do. And the reason why the experience is so great?

All the benefits that come with it.

Market the experience of total peace in owning your own home business.

Market the experience of increased self esteem when you use your skin care products.

Market the experience of amazing productivity when you use your energy drink.

Market the experience of total beauty with weight loss.

Market the experience of love or joy with travel products.

Market the FEELINGS- not just the benefits.

BMW figured that one out. Do did Nike. So did Columbia Sportswear. So did Ruth’s Chris Steak house. So did Apple. So did Hilton. So should you in your mlm home business.
