home business phone fear

Is there a FEAR that you are struggling with in your home business mlm?

Have you ever been paralyzed by some kind of fear that took you over?

What is that doing to YOU and your home based business?

In a home business, everyone has some form of FEAR. It could be the fear of the phone, as well as the fear of some form of rejection.

Who knows?

I had a billion dollar producing mentor that taught me something I have never forgotten. His words were so amazing at times. They often were like gold nuggets that he would drop into your ears and they would explode wisdom into your mind and heart.

And often, it would leave me shaking my head in just what I had heard.

Genius. Absolute genius.

I had a fear. It was a fear of calling people. I am not sure why, but it was there. And it stopped me cold from building my network marketing business.

THEN I hear THOSE Words.

 The words that revolutionized my business. And I want to share them with you.

Here they are:

“Doug, what you fear is stopping you. What is stopping you is controlling you. What is controlling you – is controlling your business. That is why you MUST ENGAGE what you fear NOW. You will find that the fear was a total deception to begin with. And that ONE THING, if you engage it no matter how fearful it is,  will do more to explode your business than any other thing you can do.”

He was so right.

Take these words to heart. They are TOTAL GOLD.

And they will put GOLD into your MLM home business.

Here are Billion Dollar Prospecting Secrets!

MLM Training- The 4 Parts to Writing Eyeball PULLING Content

 

mlm network marketing

mlm home business secrets

 

I recently in my home business mlm education, ran across a 1932 article on advertising in an old magazine scanned and uploaded online on a website featuring old marketing material.

 It was amazing. I love the article and the feel of it. It was REAL and honest writing.

 I learned so much.

And it taught me something that I believe can revolutionize your MLM content writing for your network marketing business.

Have you ever read something in home business that you COULD NOT QUIT READING?

Did the content keep you so ENGAGED that you simply were forced to continue reading because of the flow of it?

Did that network marketing content PULL you in and keep you interested?

Odds are you were being PULLED by what I call “The 4 Eyeball PULLING Anchors” of writing content.

These 4 anchors were taught and applauded in the 1932 article I read, and I wanted to share them with you.

Again, I love reading about the marketing secrets of the past that ran successful businesses. It really can teach you the foundation of a lot of what and why we do what we do today.

If you are a content writer for your home business mlm, then you need to have a template that can use. This 4 part template must have been used back in the 30’s or even 20’s but it WORKS.

And I would advise for your home business to use this on blogging and article writing.

Here are the simple 4 Eyeball PULLING Anchors:

1. What I have for YOU.

This is a simple approach. What do you have for me? You answer that right off the bat.

BUT- make what you have for them a SOLUTION Driven WHAT.

“This is a powerful resource that will help you step by step learn how to get your body back in amazing shape no matter what shape you are in.”

2. What this means for you and how you GAIN from it.

This is about VALUE and BENEFITS. Make sure that you write it perfectly clear what the Value and benefits are to the reader.

“You will not only feel better and gain more energy, but you will not believe how amazing you will look in the mirror. Your body will look like a magazine cover.”

“Included in this powerful resource are 4 DVDs and nutritional education that will change your life and also outlook on life. It will help you look at life in a whole new way.”

3. Who YOU ARE.

Let them see you as a person, not some shadow behind a computer. Let them see you in a video, or some photos with your family they can RELATE TO and think, “This person is like me.”

If you get them  to see you are a REAL person like they are, you will find them coming back day after day to check out your content.

4. Here is what you DO Next.

Lead them to n action that will continue the flow of communication. Give them something to download. Give them something to watch. Give them something to read or listen to.

But whatever you do- KEEP THEM ENGAGED by leading them with an ACTION that contains VALUE and BENEFITS for them.

Give them something FREE. That seems to always work.

Use the 4 Eyeball PULLING Content Anchors when you write, and see if the do not increase your readership and results of your mlm home business success.

MLM Training – 3 Quick Secrets of Building a Recruiting List

home business mlm recruiting

Home Business mlm recruiting

What do you for your home business MLM do everyday to build a recruiting list?

Do you ever feel like that you are finding ALL THE WRONG PEOPLE?

Do you HAVE a Recruiting List?

Do you know what it is?

A Recruiting List is a list that is BEYOND an mlm leads or network marketing prospect list.

 It is a list that you have researched their profile on social sites, learned about them and who they seem to be, and are prepared to connect with them in a whole new way.

Many home business multi level marketing leaders think that building a list is the answer.

 It is NOT.

Many prospects that are on a prospect list are not really that interested in your offer. But the ones that you have on a Recruiting List have proven they at least have an interest.

What can you do to build a Recruiting List in your network marketing?

1. Get them engaged and interacting with you in some CONSISTENT way.

To build a recruiting list, you must get them to MOVE towards you, and get them CONNECTED to YOU. Send them something to DO, READ, WATCH, or invite them to skype you or join you in a text chat.

Interaction guarantees Recruiting TRACTION.

2. Ask them questions that will reveal if they are a OPEN to something additional.

“What do you think of where you work? Tell me about it.”

“Is this a good time in your life to ever look at additional income?”

“Have you ever thought about putting your income on auto-pilot and doing it online?”

3.  Be Direct and simply Ask if they are Open to New ideas.

“Are you keeping your revenue options open? I  would like to share some free information with you that may help some folks you know.”

‘What is your feeling about additional income at this point in your life?”

“Have you ever considered owning a business?”

Being Direct and to the point can scare some folks in MLM, but it works. It saves you time, and money, and emotion, and can often show that you are a serious Leader thsat Values their time.

Especially on social networking sites, as it does cut through the fluff and wasting of time.

CAUTION: There is a difference between being DIRECT and being rude or arrogant. I am simply talking about being Direct in a nice way and cutting a lot of the initial chit chat down to where it is not impeding your recruiting efforts.

Yes, some people may need more initial chat then others, but use common sense.

Spend time with those who are GROWING in life, not stagnating.

Building a Recruiting List can also be done with opt in pages that are more DIRECT and to the point. 

Yes, you will get fewer opt ins, but you will build a better list for recruiting for your MLM network marketing home business.

Network Marketing Recruiting- 11 Quick MLM Recruiting Tips

mlm network marketing recruiting

network marketing recruiting

 

What happens when you start your recruiting in network marketing for your home business? What do you FEEL?

Do you feel like you could almost lose your breath because the fear of recruiting has hit you?

Do you wonder why it is so easy for others, but not for you?

I have good news. Recruiting in network marketing mlm is easy. And fun. And that is why I wanted to give you 11 quick tips on how to recruit in network marketing so it would inspire you and educate you on what to do and NOT to do.

Relax. It gets easier. Here are some network marketing recruiting tips to help:

1) “Start letting the home business prospect totally dominate the conversation.”

Whether online, social media, or offline, ask so many questions, that the prospect ends up dominating the conversation. Find out about their life, interests, family, dreams, and then their future. Let them become the super star of the conversation, and you ONLY listen. They are telling you how to recruit them. Encourage them and congratulate them. Keep them in the spotlight and make them feel like a million dollars!

2) “Start recruiting through their eyes, not  yours.”

We all have a tendency to recruit through our views and filters, and not the prospects.  Look through their eyes whether online or offline,   as far as where they currently are, financially, emotionally, family, socially, and career wise. Start in their world, and then lead them to your world of Network Marketing Home Business Success.

3) “Start Focusing on ONLY on what the prospect wants, not you.”

Again we have a tendency to focus on what we can GAIN out of a conversation, not give. This secret is simple and to the point. You are talking to the home business prospect online or offline,  to see what the prospect is looking for, and wanting in their life. Let your MLM business be the delivery vehicle of their dreams.

4) “When you do a presentation, including webinar, or video, paint word pictures as you present your information.”

Painting word pictures in your presentation is a powerful magnet for recruiting. Why? We think in word pictures, not letters. Paint vivid pictures with your words of the prospect enjoying the life they want, and making the money they desire in their Home Business. Put them in the picture.Ask them these word painting questions:

“Imagine the feeling of you…” “Can you see yourself…? “What would it look like if….?”

5) “Start Using the type of words -and phrases- that the prospect understands, NOT Network Marketing-ease.”

Many folks expect that the prospect understands the language of network marketing. They DON’T! Don’t use the words like “downline” or “upline”. A prospect probably will have no clue of what that is. Start Using words they can understand, and feel comfortable with, like “team”, “Support system,” and “Leaders.”

6) “No matter what, start using the word YOU at least 4 to 5 times more than you use the words me or I.”

We love to talk about ourselves. Our new car. Our new home. Our new…blah blah blah. There is nothing more telling than when a Network Marketing distributor uses the words “me” and “I” more than the word “You.” The word “You” psychologically draws the person towards you and lacks ego in your network marketing recruiting efforts.

7) “Start Letting off the pressure when you recruit. RELAX. Unknowingly, you are sending a silent signal to your home business prospect that will kill your business.”

Pressure is a form of insecurity. READ THAT AGAIN. When a distributor starts putting pressure on someone, it shows there is pressure built up inside of them. Back it off, or it will turn them off. Start using phrase that are magnetic like “I am not sure if this is something that would be right for you or not…” “I am not sure this would be a fit for you…” –great phrases to let off the pressure in your network marketing recruiting efforts.

8) “Do NOT Assume you know what the Prospect wants. Let the prospect tell you what they are looking for, not you tell them.”

We can run our mouths and talk about what we want to talk about in recruiting. What about the prospect? Many times we have a tendency to tell a prospect what their life could be like, without understanding they may want something different. Ask “If all things were possible, what are you looking to do with your life?” Then listen. They are telling you what you need to know to recruit them into your Network Marketing business.

9) “Do NOT forget the people you know but don’t overwhelm yourself! Do your warm market list- 10 names at a time. You will write many more down.”

Many people think of writing down 100 names, and shut down. They get paralayzed. Here is a tip: When you start your warm market list of who you are going to call, many times people get paralyzed with thinking about 100 or 200 names to come up with. Start with 10 and then another 10…then another 10…you get the idea. It is easier psychologically, and less intimidating. You STILL come up with 200 names, but psychologically, you do it with only 10% of the perceived “pressure” to complete a 100 name list.

10) “Never settle for who is at the top of their mind. Double the size of your warm market list INSTANTLY with the One Golden Question.”

One question can turn a memory jogger into a GOLD MINE of leads. ask: “Who do I know that they know?” or “Who do you know that they know?” This question works as a multiplier of your names, and has the potential to explode your potential business with more names than you realized you knew.

11) “Never start COLD in network marketing recruiting. Practice and Role Play your Recruiting with someone before you ever make the first call.”

You will pull a “recruiting muscle” in your mind if you are not careful. And then you will start to doubt yourself because you are getting a LOT of No’s becuase you di not practice first. If you are going to mess up, mess up during practice, and continue to mess up with your sponsor. Practice and get some “experience” before you make the first Live Recruiting call. It will put you light years ahead, and it equips you for the real thing in MLM.

These are 11 Quick tips for network marketing recruiting for your mlm home business.

MLM Training Tips- 3 Quick Secrets on Building a Team Online

home business mlm online team building

mlm online team building

Have you ever considered, for your home business  recruiting online, but yet when you thought about building a team, you shut down as nothing seems to work?

Did you ever recruit someone in your MLM and then from time to time tried to work with them online- and you got frustrated as they were never available for you?

That is normal for a lot of MLM leaders that work online. There are many mistakes made when building a team online, and we have seen a lot of those being done.

This really can make you feel like you are inadequate and cannot do this business right.

Correct?

Well, you ARE adequate and there is NOTHING wrong with you.

But there are some network marketing home based business team building secrets that you may want to consider if you are going to build an online team across the country. It might serve you well to take example from the success had by the Thailand team building from TeamXL. There are quite a few things to prepare for and having all the foresight to do so without examples is a stretch. Do yourselves a favour and read about how to do it properly.

Many software companies out there do offer great tools to find people via the internet, and recruit people online.

But here is THE Million Dollar Question:

How do you KEEP people in your mlm home business team? How can you reduce your attrition, which normally online is enormous?

Well, I got some good news for you.

Here are 3 secrets to building online that will help you MULTIPLY your team, versus lose your team on a monthly basis, or so it seems like.

1. Create a SYSTEM of training that is sent to them for at least for the first  14 days.

The first 2 weeks are CRITICAL.

You are being “tested” by your team and you do not even know it. We have found that the first 2 weeks of a new team member’s journey are the most important. They need to be EDUCATED, MOTIVATED, and ACTIVATED to go out and work their new home business.

Get an account with www.aweber.com and learn the system. It is an autoresponder system and you are going to have to have one to grow a team online.

Assume they know NOTHING. Start there. Give them the very basics of this business, including what IS network marketing. Make it so basic that even a 5th grader could understand it.

The cover the actions they need to be doing and send them an email or social mail covering each action one day at a time.

Then give them GOALS to achieve everyday that are obtainable. Focus them on GOING and SHOWING and not just Learning and Yearning.

2. Create an Online Success Environment with a daily webinar for 10 minutes.

This “Focus Webinar” helps focus the new people and get them GOING and SHOWING. It will display your Leadership as well as your commitment.

You do this everyday for 10 minutes. It can be in the morning or at lunch time. But do it DAILY.

Why daily?

It establishes a great CONNECTION with your new members, builds momentum, as well as shows them they need to do the same thing for their new people.

You can get a great free webinar software to do this at:

www.anymeeting.com

Spotlight each new member in the webinars, and congratulate them for their efforts.

Give them daily a LEADERSHIP QUOTE and one tip for building their business. Give them a chance to ask questions as well. This will create a community feel to it. Then tell them how much you are looking forward to them walking across the stage as a top earner.

3. Send “Encouragement Texts” daily and let the new people know you appreciate them.

These are simple one or 2 line messages stating you believe in a person and that keep up the great work as every top earner in the company started the same way.

Feature them on social sites and make them feel like a super star. Tweet about them. Post about them. Youtube about them. Cinchcast about them. And more of the same on other social sites.

If you do these things, you will see that your new team members STAY LONGER, WORK HARDER, and GROW BIGGER in your MLM network marketing home business.

MLM Training- Google+ and Rankings of Your Site

 

google mlm home business

google home business

Home business websites are ranked by google. But with the addition of google+ there are many new things coming as far as ranking information.

Here is what google has to say about it:

Google+ Ranking Information

Here is an excerpt:

How does +1 affect search results?

+1 helps people discover relevant content—a website, a Google search result, or an ad—from the people they already know and trust. The +1 button appears on Google search, on websites, and on ads. For example, you might see a +1 button for a Google search result, Google ad, or next to an article you’re reading on your favorite news site.

Adding the +1 button to pages on your own site lets users recommend your content, knowing that their friends and contacts will see their recommendation when it’s most relevant—in the context of Google search results. In addition, a user’s +1’s appear on the +1 tab of their Google Profile. While +1’s are always public, users can choose to make the +1 tab visible or invisible on their profile.

When a signed-in Google user is searching, your Google search result snippet may be annotated with the names of the user’s connections who’ve +1’d your page. If none of a user’s connections has +1’d your page, your snippet may display the aggregate.

MLM Training- 3 Things You Can Say when They Say NO

 

home business mlm network marketing

home business mlm NO

What do you say in your home business when someone tells you NO?

That one word probably makes you feel like a louse and loser if you are in multi level marketing.

Many people that hear the word NO feel like that.

I used to feel that way, but I realized that the word NO was controlling me.

 It was slowing me down.

 It was making me focus more on what I just heard versus what I must say to the prospect.

That is a HUGE issue with many mlm network marketing professionals.

 Work at Home folks need to understand this:

The word NO is NOT the end of the conversation.

Not when it is face to face.

Not when it is on the telephone.

And not when you are on social media sites.

It is the BEGINNING of a different phase of the conversation you are holding, that is all. it is the beginning of the “transition” phase where you transition them from a prospect to a referral source or a cheerleader.

Let me explain.

Many people simply are not for this business. And we need to understand that some never will be. But they still have Value to your future home business.

How?

Simple.

Leading you to other folks, or leading you in cheers. And that is the reason for this article.

You need to know the 3 things you can say when someone tells you NO that will keep the conversation going.

What are the three things?

1. “Thank you. I was beginning to sense this was not right for you at all. But maybe you can still help someone you know that might be struggling with what we have been talking about. Who comes to mind if you stop and think about it?”

2. “I really appreciate your honesty as I was feeling that this was really not a fit for you. But maybe you can help me. I know you know who I am looking for.  Who would you recommend that I connect with that struggles with this issue of”….<weight loss, travel, skin problems, no energy etc>

3. “Thank you again for saying that you do not know anyone. I believe you. Would it be all right if I kept in touch and just kept you in the loop as far as my Success? It would mean a  whole lot to me if you would be a cheerleader cheering me on!”

The conversation did not end in all 3 cases.

It just TRANSITIONED to a whole new place and focused on something less personal and more helpful. This little secret to mlm recruiting can prove to be an extremely powerful tactic if you are getting a lot of NOs.

In your home based business, getting a NO is not the worst thing that could happen. It may be the BEST things as it will GROW YOU and FORCE YOU to get BETTER. Either you Grow UP or you will GO OUT of this business eventually.

These are three things you can say when someone tells you NO in your MLM network marketing home business.

Where are the most prospects and the easy ones to find?

MLM Training- 3 Quick Ways to Open Up a Social Conversation

home business social media

home business social mlm conversation

 

Are you tired in your home business of trying to get people’s attention and they seem to ignore you?

Do people seem to “disappear” when you start to talk to them about your home based business?

In MLM in social media, there are many people trying to get people’s attention to talk to them about their network marketing business.

How do you set yourself apart from all the other networkers out in the social zone and get people’s attention? It is easy if you understand how to, and it is quite powerful.

Many people in social media, whether on google+, facebook, LinkedIn, or whatever, use these places to prospect for their business. And what happens is they do not understand that there is a process of conversation in social media. That process starts with an Impactful Conversation that you start with someone.

If you create IMPACT with your initial communication, then your odds of recruiting them just skyrocketed.

People are NOT recruited by what you say…

But how you made them FEEL.

That is why that you need some powerful “Ice Crushers”- not ice breakers. And I believe the more powerful the Ice Crusher is, the more powerful the Impact.

Here are three quick Ice Crushers that will work for you in social media when you are connecting with people on their blog or commenting on their post:

1.  “Wow. That is powerful stuff. And I truly appreciate you sharing that with us. Is there a place that I can plug into that you share more info like this?”

This will get anyone’s attention.

It lets them know you want to connect on a more powerful basis with them.

2. “I totally agree on what you just said. I have a question: Do you have an ebook or any type of resource that goes into this further?”

Looking to xomeone as a Resource is a powerful way to Compliment them and get them to start a conversation with you.

You need to become a Resource, but also create the conversation with prospects that they are also a resource for many.

3. “This has really made a difference in my thinking. You have a gift that is obvious. I would love to connect with you because you are the type of Leader I would like to share with some folks I know. Can we connect on skype?”

This alone will almost guarantee that you get an audience with this person.

It calls them a Leader and also displays their leadership through your comment.

Ice Crushers are something we have been teaching for a while for social media to our Private Clients.

These are only 3 that get the conversation going in a way that you can eventually ask this question:

“Are you at a point in life that you are open to secondary revenue sources?”

That is not an Ice Crusher, but an Ice Melter for your MLM home business in social media network marketing.

Does your blog get traffic but yet for whatever reason prospects do not seem to join you or even opt in?

Do you ever feel like your blog is just a desert with no water?

There are a lot of folks in network marketing that have this issue.

Home Business MLM blogs are what I have been focusing on for a while as many folks are struggling with their blogs.

The reason?

Weak Copy.

It does NOT MOVE the READER to DO ANYTHING or even invite them to come back.

Your copy, or what you write, needs to be STRONG and Powerful like a Magnet that PULLS people back to your blog.

Here are 3 Quick Secrets of good copy for home business blogs.

1. Write from THEIR perspective FIRST, yours second.

You need to look through your reader’s eyes, and not yours.

What are they lo0king for?

Relate to that in your writing and copy.

What are they struggling with?

Write in that focus and let them know you understand and you have been there as well.

Create a SOLUTION for them and make it easy to embrace and engage. Tell them WHY this solution will work and you have been where they are.

CONNECT with their pain, and that will be YOUR GAIN.

2. Tell a Story that they can say, “Hey- that is ME!”

The more CONNECTED a reader feels to you, the more they will relate and come back.

Drive the connection DEEP and tell a story that will move them motivate them, inspire them, change them.

They will want more of that you got, and they will be back.

3. Paint a Picture of the Life they COULD BE LIVING in vivid, Detailed, 3 dimensional colors.

When you write copy, make sure that you PLACE THE READER in the land of LARGE LIVING and in LIVING COLOR.

Talk DETAILS and describe the life that you can help them obtain.

“Can you imagine sitting on the beach, 90 degrees, smell of coconut oil, sound of the waves crashing, people laughing, music playing, suntan oil glistening, you are at total peace and loving life, and you just earned another $2000.00 dollars today? THAT is the life I want to talk to you about…”

Use these tips.

Fix your copy.
