MLM Network Marketing Training- Reatil to Recruit in Network Marketing

Hey Guys! HOT Article!!! DF

The MLM Challenge.


We’re all aware of how difficult it is to find business builders.

To me a business builder is one who wants to start their own business and not do it as a hobby. They want to have all the advantages of having their own business.

This can be tough…Even with the best recruiting techniques.

For me one of the better ways to find business builders is to Retail to Recruit.

Personally I think your MLM business should be made up of 75% retail customers and 25% business builders.

Why?

Having more retail customers ordering from you week after week, month after month, year after year creates that residual income we all want. Plus you now have an army of customers that are spreading the word about your products. People will talk more freely about products that are doing well for them, then they will about a business opportunity.

In one case people feel they are sharing, in the other they feel like they are selling (guess which one?).

When people talk about products they’re sharing an experience, when they’re talking about a business opportunity they feel like they’re selling. It’ a shame really you should feel the same way about both.

Anyway in my company we make great money with retail sales and business builders. But It’s easier to find retail customers than business builders, plus your income is generated faster. (of course that depends on your pay plan, for example I get paid every week with ours).

The Network Marketing Paradox.

Let me ask you a question.

Do you think it’s easier to introduce the idea to someone who is in love with your product/service they can have their own business or to someone who has never tried your product or service?

Kinda of a dumb question, because I know you know the answer.

Once someone has been using you product for about 30 days or so. And before I go on I trust you have been in contact with your MLM customer to see how he/she likes using your product. More importantly have they used your product at all.

You would be surprised at how many people will buy a product and not use it.

If you do come across someone who has not used your product don’t say “WHY NOT”.

Tell a story.

For example, lets say you sell product XYZ and you called a customer and they have not use it yet.

Me.. “Hi Bob, this is Duffy how do you like XYZ?”

Bob.. “Oh I have not tried it yet it’s still in the box, no time to busy”

Me.. “I can relate to that Bob. When I first started taking XYZ I started noticing a difference after only 3 days, I could fall asleep faster and I woke up more refreshed and with more energy and I am getting the same feedback from my other customers as well. I’ll give you a call in few days and see how you’re doing. Talk to you then, have a great night.”

I did not challenge him, I accepted his excuse and I went on to tell him a story of how XYZ has helped me. Do you think he is going to leave your product in the box for one more day…I doubt it.

But even if he does, just keep telling stories of the things XYZ is doing for you and others.

However, if your customer has not tried your product after 2 or 3 phone calls (5 or 7 days). Personally I would offer them a refund. With that the customer will either say no and try your product, or they will accept your offer. If so, great, either way it’s a win-win.

The MLM Reorder.

Ok, it’s been 30 days or so since your customer has been using your product and they love it, what now?

The next time you talk to a customer you can say something like this:

According to my records, it’s time for you to reorder. How would you like to save up to $10 off your next purchase? For every name you give me of someone I can send a brochure to, I’ll give you $1 off up to $10. Is that fair?

Or

If they are internet customers you would be offering them a $10 rebate after they place their next order. The above is for local customers that you are personally delivering your product to.

This is a great way to get warm leads.

Then you take a flyer or brochure and put a yellow sticky note on it and say Hi “Sally” Mary Jones has been taking this product and feels great and thought you might be interested. Your name, your address your phone number.

Then, after you mail the info to the referrals, you call them in a few days. And say:

Hi Sally. This is Your Name, You don’t know me but Mary Jones asked that I send you a brochure. Did you get that brochure? Listen, our product is helping a lot of people around the country–it’s helped Mary.

The product is less than a dollar and a half a day and it’s got 100% money back guarantee. Would you like to try it or do you know anyone who’d like to try it?

The MLM Money Breakdown.

I used what it costs to use my product each day for the above example, replace that with the break down of your products cost per day.

Now it’s been about 2 months after your original customers first purchase. Depending on your products user rate you may have talked to them as little as 2 times, but that’s ok.

Now say something like this:

Hello _______ How are you doing?

Have you experienced any additional positive results with your product?

Listen, I can’t offer you a discount this time. “4” of the people of the “10” names you gave me are on the product and they’re loving the product. They’re going to reorder the product. Would you like to supply them and make the profit or would you rather I supply them?

If they say they would like to earn the profit, show them your presentation.

You’re retailing to recruit in MLM and Network Marketing.

Until next time.

MLM Network Marketing Training How To Use Marketing and Sales To Explode Your MLM Home Business -Part 1

MLM Network Marketing Training How To Use Marketing and Sales To Explode Your MLM Home Business -Part 1

By Sean M. Lyden

Warning: Reading This And The Following Sales and Marketing Articles May Cause Your Business To Grow Beyond What You Are Presently Able To Handle.

Are you willing to take the risk and put in the effort to build and grow a home-based business? Then read on and prosper!

The MLM Problem.

The Problem Many home-based entrepreneurs don’t know how to best market their products and services. Some neglect proactive marketing all together, praying earnestly and waiting for prospects to fall through the ceiling. Others market full-force, but produce shoddy publicity materials or other key marketing mistakes that kill their business credibility, pushing clients away. Either approach will keep you from achieving your business potential and financial dreams.

The Bottom Line Whether you’ve been thinking about starting a home business or you’re already a seasoned home-based entrepreneur, the principle remains the same — your business’ survival and success hinge on how effectively you penetrate the marketplace. There fore, examine how the following marketing strategies and tools can help you boost your home business profits in 1998.

The Home-Based Advantage Low overhead costs, no commute to work, the ability to be home with the kids — these are just a few of the advantages for the home business owner. Gear your marketing efforts to capitalize on these and other home-based strengths including:

Adaptability. The Information Age has escalated the rate of change in the marketplace. To survive and thrive, you must be prepared to act — and act quickly. As a home-based entrepreneur, you can make adjustments instantly, without having to cut through the red tape of bureaucratic decision-making procedures of larger business.

Technology. Computers, the Inter net, fax machines, and emerging video-conferencing can take home businesses to a more level playing field with bigger companies, empowering entrepreneurs to accomplish tasks that used to require hiring staff to perform. • The Part-Time Op tion. Unlike conventional store-front businesses that require full-time attention and high overhead costs, home businesses can be operated part-time, at low cost, and — depending on your financial goals — can be phased into full-time operations.

Taking Your Business To The Next Level A common reason home businesses fail is because owners neglect the up-front planning needed to position their ventures. Once you have defined your market position — where you want to take your business in the next year — you will have moved one step closer to success. Begin by taking inventory of where your business is right now. What specific goods and services do you provide? How do you set yourself apart? What is your business’ reputation? How are you perceived by your customer as far as your prices, reliability, and other elements of your products or services? If you already have a business, seek feedback from existing clients. The next step is to project where you want to take your business in the next year. What market position do you want to occupy? Is the niche market you want large enough? How will your benefits outsell those provided by the competition? Do you have the ability, capital, resources and support to make your market position a reality? Your answers will give you the information you need to begin designing or updating your marketing plan.

Planning For Profit Once you have determined where you want to go, outline the essential steps to get there. Begin by writing a one sentence purpose (mission) statement for your marketing campaign. The rest of your plan should include a brief description of each of the following: • Benefits of your products and services. • Your target market. • What marketing tools will best help you achieve your mission. • Your market niche — what sets you apart in the market place. • Your marketing budget. Keep your marketing plan brief. The more concise you make your marketing plan, the more effective it will be in evaluating your marketing efforts throughout the year.

Finding Your Niche This is often the hardest task for a beginning home-based en trepreneur — but also one of the most crucial. In order for your venture to survive in a competitive marketplace, you must distinguish yourself from other businesses and find a niche. What makes your business unique? Why should someone choose to buy from you over a competitor? Prospective clients want to know. If you can give them a compelling answer, you will position yourself as a leader in your industry — boosting your profit potential.

The MLM Tools for Publicity.

Marketing Tools That Hit a Home Run According to Print Moz, no matter how you choose to publicize your business, one principle should guide your promotional material: Get to the point — fast. You’re vying for the attention of consumers bombarded each day with advertisements from countless companies — some being your competitors. Don’t waste any time getting your message across.

Ad — Vantage You have determined your market position and drawn up a marketing plan; now you’re ready to proactively spread the word about your products and services. One effective tool is mass-media advertising. You have a variety of media choices — depending upon your target market and your advertising budget — including magazines, newspapers, television, radio, and the Internet. Start by evaluating how and where your competitors advertise. What’s working for them? Take their best ideas; then design your own winning layout, positioning yourself as having the best offer.

Seductive Headlines As the first phrases seen in advertising copy, headlines should arouse enough interest in the reader so that they will want to read or listen on to learn more about your product, price and offer. To get ideas about what headlines will work best for you, scan different types of ad copy, particularly those from your competitors. Effective headlines:

• Capture the customer’s interest • Build business credibility • Highlight the most important benefits • Are always positive.

Testing Your Ads Advertising can be expensive, but for just about any business a mandatory investment. To get the most out of your ads, test them by the following criteria: • What is the quantity of leads or prospects that the ad generates? Compare this amount in terms of a unit cost of advertising (dollars in advertising per leads generated). • How many of these leads convert into sales? Different advertising media — due to the audiences they target — will vary in the numbers of actual closes. Continually check the response from your ads, make changes or run a new ad if necessary.

Regional & National Exposure Magazines and trade journals are the Energizer Bunny of the advertising tools — they keep going and going and going. Not only do magazine ads have the longest “shelf-life” of any advertising medium (giving your business exposure for as long as that issue is in circulation), but you can make reprints of that ad that will last you forever. You could run an ad in a major national magazine (a cost-effective option for home-based entrepreneurs to build credibility and compete with larger companies) and then order reprints of that ad to use as powerful credibility pieces in sales presentations, direct mailings, or whatever promotional means you choose. To find out if a publication will give you the exposure you want and fit in your marketing budget, call and ask for their media kit. Not only will you find out a magazine’s ad rates, but you’ll learn about its circulation, demographic focus, etc.

Extra! Extra! Read All About It! Newspaper ads are very effective for home-based businesses that market their products and services locally. Not only can you reach a large number of people in specific metropolitan locations, but you can also target pros pects via their interests (e.g. sports, lifestyle, and business sections). Go to your local library to study back issues of the newspaper in which you’re interested in placing an ad. What would be the best day for you to run an ad? If you were running a catering business, for example, you would choose Wednesday or Thursday because those are the days most newspapers print their food sections. What section of the paper would be best geared to your target market? If your offer is directed toward males, the sports section would be one for you to consider. Advertising costs depend on a number of factors including: the size of the ad, where in the paper it’s placed, the day it runs, etc. As with magazines, call and request a media kit from the newspaper to determine what advertising steps you can take that will fit within your marketing budget.

Making Waves With Radio Radio advertising enables you to home in on your target market depending upon the type of station, time of day and day of week you run an ad. The advertising costs for the large, more popular stations are out of reach for most home-based entrepreneurs. However, smaller stations provide less expensive options. When deciding whether or not you can afford to place a radio ad, determine how many times you need to run the ad in order for it to be effective. Initial placement may fit well into your budget, but the true test is to consider the overall costs of running an effective radio advertising campaign. For many home-based entrepreneurs, radio is not a cost-effective medium for home business owners, especially those who market to a national audience. However, if you target a local market and have the funds to run your ads consistently on a number or stations throughout the year, radio advertising may very well be the ticket you need to take your business to the next level.

The MLM TV Star!

Now You Too Can Be on TV! A television commercial — when done properly — is the most powerful way to get your message across. The combination of video and audio appeal to more senses than any other advertising method. His torically, be cause of television’s drawing power, only the big-name companies could afford to use it to advertise. However, with the dawn of satellite and cable TV, more affordable options are available for the home-based entrepreneur. As with radio, consider how often you need to run a TV ad for it to be effective. Then add up expenses. Placement costs have plummeted significantly, but if you purchase only one or two thirty second segments, you won’t likely make enough impact on your target market. Therefore, decide how much of your marketing budget you’re willing to devote to television advertising. If you cannot afford a significant number of runs, invest your advertising dollars elsewhere, such as magazine advertising. If you can, take full advantage of this powerful medium.

The Power Of Printed Material Once your ad has generated interest, how do you keep your prospects hungry to know more about what your business can do for them?

Brochures To Generate Closures Whet their appetites with a compelling brochure that showcases your business’ features and benefits and promotes your business expertise. Add attractive graphics and attention-grabbing headlines to give your brochure a professional appearance and build your business credibility.

Home-Based Basics Your brochure is just one component in you marketing arsenal. Don’t overlook the sales-generating potential of basic business printed materials:

Letterhead and Stationary: Use high quality paper. Consider including your mission statement and a brief listing of services. Incorporate all ways to contact you, such as e-mail and fax.

Faxes: A fax cover sheet should mirror the letterhead. Include your company name and number across the top of the page.

Business Cards: When meeting a potential client, the business card is your first introduction. Put a headline on it that defines your mission. Fill the blank space on the back the card with the top three benefits your business has to offer.

Invoices, Statements & Mis c ellaneous Correspondence: In all correspondence you have with a client, even sending a bill, use these as opportunities to market your business. As an example, an invoice to a client might contain a special discount only for previous customers.

Flyers: Less formal and shorter than a brochure, flyers are used for impersonal promotions targeted to a time-specific event (special discount, sale item, etc.). Home-based entrepreneurs who market to a local audience can tack them up on utility poles and bulletin boards, place under car windshields, insert in newspapers, or deliver through carrier route mail. For national marketing, flyers can be send through the mail.

MLM Network Marketing Training -MLM Direct Sales Perseverence

[MLM] Persistence is kind of like water. You need it if you ever are going to get something to boil.”

Thomas Jefferson

 

Ever watch water boil?

Is boring at first, but eventually the bubbles show up, (much like a Network Marketing business) and the steam starts, and the boiling begins. But the heat had to be consistent, and never wavering.

It is the same with the heat of success.

And the heat of Winning.

And the Heat of Victory.

And the heat of a Direct Sales Fire!

The Fire of MLM Success.

If you want anything in your life to boil, and create some HOT success in your MLM Business, then you must be consistent and never wavering.

Constant heat and Constant focus.

Either you are cooking in life…

or end up cooked.

Well????

MLM Network Marketing Training-The Secrets to Conquering Fear in MLM.

MLM Network Marketing Training-The Secrets to Conquering Fear in MLM.

 

The Greatest Threat in MLM.

Our greatest threat to success is within US — not ‘out there’.

— It’s FEAR that keeps us from even ‘trying’.

— It’s FEAR that keeps us from taking ‘risks’ (ACTION).

— It’s FEAR that causes us to QUIT – to give up (on our jobs / careers / businesses / education / relationships / marriages.

So what can we DO about that lethal enemy, FEAR? I’ll suggest some steps…

1) I believe the first thing that is imperative for us to understand – and accept is the principle that “whatever we RESIST — will PERSIST”.

I believe that the more we “resist” FEAR – and try to directly “overcome” it – the stronger it gets. The more “attention” we give it – the more it “grows”.

Think about it — it’s like the alien ‘Borg’ in the Star Trek movies – who assimilated other races – announcing: “Resistance is futile!” — This is especially true of FEAR – our resistance is futile. If we resist FEAR – it has “won” – and we have “lost”.

So I believe that the first step in dealing with FEAR is to “accept” it — “embrace” it – “experience” it, fully. I think we should just let it BE there – and discover that FEAR by itself, cannot hurt or kill us. It is just “there” – like the SKY and the OCEAN (and INLAWS) are – ‘just there’.

In fact, I say that FEAR itself is not even bad – except when we “allow” it to limit and control us. We then ‘rip ourselves off’ -and we live a small life. We can even miss our destiny, because of this.

The MLM Darkness.

2) The second step in my view is to see FEAR as a form of ‘darkness’.

How do we rid ourselves of darkness?

Do we fight it – resist it -curse it?

NO — we just let it BE there – and then we simply turn on the LIGHT. The light overcomes the darkness (as long as it is turned ON).

Light is analogous to FAITH – so when we turn on the faith – the FEAR disappears (or at least the ‘power’ of FEAR is disabled). We build an unshakable FAITH – that we’re in the RIGHT place – at the RIGHT time – with the RIGHT Opportunity / Company / Products / Pay Plan / System / Team.

So how do we keep the FAITH (light) ON?

Well, I suggest that CONFIDENCE is much the same as faith. So we create faith by harnessing the past, present and future. Also, since faith seems to be ‘contagious’ – if we ‘associate with’ others who have ‘greater’ faith than we have at the moment – we soon ‘catch’ it. It gets inside of us. In fact – WE then become contagious – so WE “infect” OTHERS with faith.

But what do we do if FEAR just ‘keeps coming back’?

We just keep ‘turning on’ the FAITH.

We should not feel we need to get ‘rid of’ FEAR . We don’t need to. It’s always around (like the trees / lakes). It can even be our TEACHER (we should never let it become our MASTER).

Where do FEAR and FAITH come from?

The Source of Network Marketing Fear.

I believe that both have the same source — our IMAGINATION.

I believe that WE generate or create either one.

We tend to think that FEAR or FAITH come from the “outside” – but actually, they do not even exist for us -unless we CREATE them. There are ‘many’ FEARS that tend to haunt us — illness — money — getting old — failure — you name it.

What about the FEAR OF ‘REJECTION’ (another of our greatest FEARS)?

This FEAR is very real – and it paralyzes most people. But the real problem is not the “rejection” – it is the FEAR of rejection. I believe this FEAR of rejection is something WE create. It is not ‘real’.

How can we ‘overcome’ this FEAR of Rejection in MLM?

We should just face the TRUTH. That’s it – the truth is, that there IS ‘no’ actual REJECTION in this business -even though there is a huge FEAR of rejection. Here’s my evidence…

If I’m “sharing the GIFT” of product – or my BIZ OPP with you – and you tell me that you are “not interested” -or that you think that Network Marketing is stupid – or that it is a scam, or whatever – I may tell myself that I was just REJECTED.

BUT – here’s what actually happened:

— I told you what I believed
— You told me your opinion
— It was different than my opinion
— I made up that you REJECTED me

So where IS the rejection?

The Truth of Fear in MLM.

The TRUTH is – all that happened was that there was a DIFFERENCE OF OPINION. There was NO rejection. The REJECTION part would be something I ‘made up’. The only time I might be REJECTED would be if you said to me – “Peter, I reject you”. Okay, now I “have” been rejected. But how often does that ever happen?

Unless I am told directly – “I reject YOU” – there is NO ‘rejection’ going on. The only “rejection” is what I made up – what I IMAGINED. And with this – I “disempower” myself.

Someone may say – maybe the person just didn’t SAY it – but he ‘was’ actually rejecting you. So let’s check it out. I ask you – “are you rejecting me?” – You are going to say – “No, I’m not rejecting YOU – I’m just rejecting what you SAID (I have a different opinion).

“The TRUTH is – it doesn’t even ‘matter’ whether or not I am rejected – because it is the FEAR that is the problem. Even if you did reject ME, so what? – Am I injured? – Will I die?

If we can just see the TRUTH – that there is no ‘rejection’ anyway -we have nothing to FEAR – just like in the movie – The Matrix -“there is no spoon” (you have to see the movie.).

The MLM Bottom Line.

BOTTOM LINE – let’s choose to create FAITH instead of creating FEAR.

Like the exasperated mother said to her disobedient little boy—”I brought you into the world, and I can take you out!”

Any FEAR that we have – WE created it. So we can “un-create” it – by creating FAITH that instantly “displaces” it.

Let’s choose an environment – and people – that are congruent with – and support –FAITH.

We are ALL ‘susceptible’ to FEAR — and we can ALL ‘become’ people of great FAITH.

We need to remember always, that ==> the two CANNOT co-exist.

It’s our OWN choice.

MLM Network Marketing Training MLM Recruiting-How Do You Recruit People in MLM?

MLM Network Marketing Training MLM Recruiting-How Do You Recruit People in MLM?

 

The MLM Recruiting Question.

I get this question a lot.

And the answer is I don’t recruit people, people recruit themselves.

Now your saying…What?

I set goals each week. This week for example my plan is to talk to 7 people about my MLM business opportunity. But I may need to talk to 20 people to find those 7 to talk to.

What do I mean?

I listen to people.

I listen to people.

One more time…

I listen to people.

If I here someone talking about how their having financial troubles (who isn’t). I would say something like this to them.

“Have you thought about doing something about it?”

If they answer “No”. And many people will say no, I forget about them. Why would I want to convince someone they may need my help. Most people do, but most people don’t want it, and that’s just fine. That is all part of mlm recruiting.

The MLM Recruiting Secret.

I’m only looking for people that want my help.

So if a person says “Yes”. They have just raised their hand and said “I’m looking for help”.

Plus I have been given permission by them to give them a presentation. I have over 10 different presentations I could give, but of course I have my favorite one.

You see, by only talking to people that raise their hand I have rejection free prospecting. And I can tell you that’s a lot better then being on the phone for 10 hours a day hearing the word no and waiting for that yes.

That is NOT network marketing recruiting success.

Three MLM Recruiting Secrets.

To save yourself a lot of aggravation here’s what I suggest.

1) Start listening to people. Listen for people that say to you “I’m Ready”

2) Set weekly goals of how many people your going to talk to, and I mean give a full presentation of your opportunity.

3) Only talk to people that raise their hand to you and say “I’m Ready”.

Remember no matter how you cut it, it’s a numbers game for Success.

But you have to decide, do you want to work hard or work smart.

Until next time.

To Your MLM Success

MLM Network Marketing Training – Who can Start an MLM Home Business?

MLM Network Marketing Training – Who can Start an MLM Home Business?

The Million Dollar MLM Question.

Anyone with a desire or urge to start an MLM Home Based Business can venture into this field. All you need is a computer and who has not got one or access to one these days? An elementary knowledge of the working of a computer and the Internet is sufficient to get started. Many things can be picked up as you progress. This is what most of the people do.

The beauty of this MLM Internet Home Business is that Age and Sex , Race and Religion are no barriers. It is sans borders. Entrepreneurs living in any part of the world can participate in thousands of Affiliate programs that are either Regional or Global in nature.

There are many programs that are Free to join! In fact there are several Affiliate programs that provide Entrepreneurs with Free Websites and Tools too. You could have your own personal website if you are prepared to spend a few dollars.

Why?

The MLM Reasons.

This is a pertinent question indeed! Some of the reasons for starting a Network Marketing Home Based Business are:

1. A desire to earn an Additional income to supplement the monthly income.
2. A desire to run your own home business and not depend on your Boss’s pay packet.
3. Dissatisfaction with your present Boss or your employment.
4. Being out of work or laid off.
5. Circumstances forcing you to be with the family or ageing parents.
6. A Childhood ambition to have your own business.

When?

You can start a Home Based Business at any age, It can be at twenty, fifty or even at seventy. What matters most is that you have to be sufficiently motivated and have the urge and desire to do it.

Allocating two hours a day for your cherished dream should not be difficult to start with. In fact about twenty hours a week would be useful and advantageous. I am aware of people who have retired from active work but are keeping themselves gainfully occupied by doing an Internet Home Based Business.

To be successful in life you should have a Plan, more so for your Internet Business Opportunity. Draw up a short term and a long term plan for what you intend to achieve. Initially draw up a Plan for the first three months to start with and try to stick with it, come what may.

While you are at the computer, Pop ups and other advertisements can and will divert your attention from your objective. Do not run after the goose that is going to lay the golden egg for you and waste your valuable time.

Top Network Marketers.

Top Marketers are brilliant people who spend much time and money in researching how to divert your attention and I can tell you, they are not going to fail! I should know! I have been in the marketing business for several years though not in the internet field . Hence you should remain completely focused on your work.

Where?

Unlike in a brick and mortar business, to operate a Business from home, the Home Based Business Entrepreneur needs no separate building. Your physical place of business will be your very home and no high start up fees is necessary. The computer can be set up wherever you like so that it is convenient to work with and free from noises and distraction.

Your success will to some extent depend on the support you receive from the members of your family. The spouse can be of great assistance by reading and researching resources and articles and doing a lot of other preliminary work, which can substantially reduce the number of hours you have to spend on the computer. In other words your spouse can be your partner in your MLM Home Based Business.

The greatest benefit of this Internet Business Opportunity is that it works twenty-four hours(24/7) a day and is Portable. Wherever you travel, within the country or to any part of the world your Business travels with you. You have to carry your lap top along, that’s it. Otherwise find access to a computer. It is as simple as that.

Why wait?

Start working on your Home Based Business seriously. Work at Home, Work from Home or Work away from Home and reap the benefits the Internet Revolution has showered on you, the Internet Entrepreneur of MLM.

MLM Network Marketing Training – Why Do People Quit MLM?

MLM Network Marketing Training – Why Do People Quit MLM?

By Tom Wood

The Quitting Habit in MLM.

CEOs quit leading. Athletes quit working out. Sales people quit selling. Couples quit their marriages.

People quit every day. In huge proportions.

They quit their diet. They quit their exercise. They even quit “quitting smoking”.

Nearly 80% of people who start an MLM home-based business quit within the first year. Whoa!!!

With numbers like these, I’ve become somewhat obsessed with figuring out…

… why do people quit MLM?

I think I’ve figured it out.

Actually, I didn’t figure it out; a bunch of psychologists did. I just recently learned the answer. (I’m amazed it took me this long to find it)

And it’s probably not the reason you think it is.

Once you know the REAL reason people quit, you will be able to protect yourself from quitting on your own dreams. And you can help others from quitting on their dreams.

We’ve been doing a lot of things wrong in network marketing for a long time. It’s the reason we have so many people who quit.

Pay attention to this. It will change everything for you.

Have you ever heard of extrinsic motivation? Neither had I. That is, until I was reading a psychological study of success. It was eye-opening.

Extrinsic motivation is when you are motivated by external things, like money, recognition and rewards. This is how we motivate in our home-based networking businesses.

The MLM Questions.

“What’s your check?” “What’s your level?” “Did you walk across the stage?” “Are you part of the ‘in’ crowd?” “What kind of pin are you wearing?”, etc…

Extrinsic motivation works. For a while. About a minute.

People won’t stick around long enough for you to create any lasting wealth if they only have extrinsic motivators.

Why? Well, if they don’t get a big paycheck, they get frustrated and quit. And if all they got was a pretty pin, they think, “this pin isn’t all it’s cracked up to be” and they quit. Trust me — I see it all the time in my group.

But intrinsic motivation? That’s what keeps people going.

Intrinsic motivation is when you are motivated by inner things like purpose, passion and mission. People who are motivated intrinsically do not quit very easily. They stick.

Think about it. Religions may be the biggest “networks” in the world. They don’t pay you a dime (little to no extrinsic motivators). But the intrinsic motivation, the sense of purpose, is why so many people stay the course.

And sales jobs have the biggest turnover. It’s all extrinsic motivation. “If you make the sale, you get the check and a pin. “But that’s it. Most sales managers don’t care how you made the sale. They just reward you on the results.

Of all the top networkers I’ve met, 99.9% of them have massive intrinsic motivators.

They have a deep intrinsic desire to share their MLM product and company. They believe the product is worth the price, and good for the customer. They feel like they are making a difference.

They feel proud. They love what they are doing and becoming — more than what they are getting. They love the process, not the results. Ok, they love the results, too. 🙂

But without loving the process, the results would be worthless to them. They’ll tell you that if they won ten million dollars in the lottery, they’d keep doing what they are doing. They’re not kidding.

They’re motivated intrinsically.

Every hear of TGI Friday’s? It’s the number one restaurant chain in its class. Here’s what the CEO did that made that company so successful.

He found a way to motivate intrinsically.

The MLM Motivation Secret.

Here was the problem in his restaurants. Wait-staff in a new restaurant would work hard. They want to pay their rent; they have bills. They do whatever it takes. Smiles included. Then they get the money. Their extrinsic motivators are taken care of. The smiles stop. They start coming in late. They complain about the customers.

They don’t love what they do (no intrinsic motivation). And people stop coming to the restaurant.

So the CEO of TGI Friday’s figures he’s got to find a way to reward people intrinsically. His wait-staff is mostly twenty-something. Remember those wanderlust years?

He tells them if they are good with service, he’ll set them up to work in any city they want. Take a road trip. They love it (intrinsically)! And you can tell on their faces when they serve you.

Brilliant.

So what are you doing to keep people from quitting?

Yes, you’ve got to have the extrinsic motivators, goals, for your people. But make sure they LOVE what they do. Hold FUN events. Take road trips together.

Do weekend workshops where you build a sense of team. Make phone calls together, so it’s fun! Remind yourself about the purpose in your products. Remind your team about it, too. Do it with passion.

Lot’s of passion. The kind of passion that makes you feel good inside (intrinsically).

The MLM Motto for Success.


So the motto may go:

“Get ’em with the money. Keep ’em with the mission.”

Extrinsic motivators
attract people to you. Intrinsic motivators make them stay with you.

Now you know.

Go make a boat load of money … and make a difference in the world. Love every minute of it.

Like me.

Always fighting for your freedom.

With passion…

MLM Network Marketing Training Network Marketing: Its All About Customers

MLM Network Marketing Training Network Marketing: Its All About Customers

The MLM Customer Factor.

Leadership, Visualization, Goal-setting, blah, blah…

All network marketers have heard that jargon at one time or another. But you know what? It’s just that – Jargon.

When you share with your team, the lessons you have learnt while building your business – that’s MLM Leadership.

When you imagine that new car or house on the beach, that you’re going to buy next year with the income from your business – now that’s Visualization.

And when you plan exactly how you’re going to go about getting that new car or house – well, that’s Goal-setting.

It’s that simple…

And yet people complicate it so much that they write entire books, and have entire courses to teach you these “skills.”

But they’re missing the whole point, really. Because network marketing is really about customers, speaking about how to handle customers you may find useful these tips https://www.salesforce.com/blog/2019/04/sales-tips-for-success.html from Salesforce. You should also know your products and services as well as its pricing. If you need help with the pricing of your products or services, I suggest you visit sites like https://www.qualtrics.com/product-experience/pricing-research-software/ to know more.

Think about it.

Why do companies get into network marketing? DUH. To sell products, of course!

And why do they choose to sell their products through network marketing?

Because network marketing is really the most efficient way of selling products.

After all it’s all about people selling (or recommending) products they USE to their own network of friends and acquaintances. To people who TRUST them.

MLM Questions for You.

So if you want to serve your customers better through your network marketing business, you can get a Showcase IDX website plugin for your business.

Here are a few things to ask yourself.

1. Are you in the service business or recruitment business?

If you are in the business of helping people – whether to become healthier, or financially independent – you should consider yourself as providing a service. And a service runs on customers.

Sure, there are plenty of people out there who want to start a home business or join a business opportunity.

But if you focus on the MLM opportunity, you’ll be competing with a whole lot of other, more established networking companies, for a new prospect’s time and money.

Instead, if you focus on your products (and I’m assuming they are unique, excellent products that meet a real need), you’ll have very little competition.

Besides, it’s so much easier to sell a product than to sell a dream.

2. Is your product right for them?

I’ve seen people recommending their products to customers as a “miracle” solution to all their problems. This is not only misleading, but is bound to backfire.

Ask yourself – are there other options for my customers? Are there cheaper, perhaps more effective options, that can help them?

Perhaps they can’t afford your product right now. Or perhaps there are other, albeit less effective options, that might meet their immediate needs better.

Almost everyone needs to get healthier, or richer. But how they choose to achieve their goals should be their choice, not yours.

Certainly, give your customers all the information they need about your MLM products. It’s not your duty to suggest alternatives.

But sometimes the best way you can serve them is by letting them know that they are free to explore their options and get back to you when they’ve decided that your product meets their needs best.

You’ll not only have a grateful customer, but also build trust and goodwill. Your customer will think of you as someone to depend on, and come back to you when they need advice.

Yes, you might lose a customer, but you’ll have gained a friend.

3. Do they really need the MLM business opportunity?

Once you get a new customer, do you instantly start shoving the Network Marketing business opportunity down their throat? If so, you’re doing them a disservice.

Yes, do show your customer how they can reduce (or even completely recover) their costs by becoming a distributor and recommending the products to their friends.

Offer them what they want – a cheaper way to purchase your products.

But also accept that some of them may just want to keep buying MLM products without ever building a business.

And appreciate them for contributing to your paycheck.

Ultimately all business is about building trust. So the next time you process an order or answer a query, focus on building a relationship, rather than a business. You can read some sales tips for getting to know more prospects and customers.

If you’re a friend to your customer and do what’s right for them, you can be secure in the knowledge that what goes around will definitely come around.

MLM Network Marketing Training Let’s Get To Know Your MLM Upline.

MLM Network Marketing Training Let’s Get To Know Your MLM Upline.

 

What is an MLM Upline?

It is the “Line of folks above you” that are there to help you in your quest for success. They all make some money off of your efforts, and you need to know who they are, and what they have accomplished.

What you need to do, is send each of them and email. Contact your sponsor and get their emails and telephone numbers and send them a letter introducing yourself.

Why?

They can help you, train you, and generally help you with their experience and success.

There are some questions that I recommend asking your upline:

“What help create the success you have in your group?”

“What is the most important thing I can do right now to get my business started and why?”

“If you were me, what calls do I need to be on?”

“What made you decide to join our company and why?”

“What is the way that you keep motivated?”

“What one success secret is there to this business that has helped you the most?”

“How can I help be a part of the team and contribute?”

“Can I volunteer to do things and when?”

“What drives you to succeed?”

Become MLM VISIBLE.

These are the type of questions that an upline will appreciate..but understand:

INFERNO Secret:

The more VISIBLE you are to your upline, the more help you will get.

Make yourself known with your actions, help, and interest in what is going on…

BECOME A LEADER from the start. Don’t wait on people to call on you, or your upline to recognize you….

INFERNO Secret:

BE PROACTIVE….and them some more. Let your upline know there is a WINNER and LEADER in their downline… SHOW THEM!

Make a list of all your upline that gets paid on you and make it a priority ot stay in touch and use them for your business….

Yes…..I know….

There are some uplines that have an Over-inflated Sense of Self Importance.

If you don’t get a response from them, understand that they have “Celebrityitis” and ignore them. They have their heads up their rear and cannot really help you.

Make a decision today that you WILL BECOME An MLM LEADER, and will be part of the Leadership Team…

INFERNO Secret:

NOTHING gets the attention of your upline and the company like NEW VOLUME!

Become known for your RESULTS…that is a HUGE secret….

INFERNO SECRET:

RESULTS RULE.

Period. With your MLM upline and company.

Also ask your upline what books they are reading and what tapes they are listening to…study this business like a business….and keep learning.

WARNING:

There are some folks out there that think that they have all the answers…and if it didn’t come from them or the company, it cannot be any good.

That is a valid point to some degree as you must protect the culture of the company, and your upline should be careful of training that doesn’t stay on the company message and vision…

But a lot of the training out there is really good, and I personally have learned a lot from the trainers in the industry…

In PassionFire, we have a list of the top sites whose training ROCKS!

Look them up and visit their sites…..

Get to know your upline, and let them know who you are…BECOME VERY VISIBLE…and as your success grows you will be glad you did!

Blessings…
