MLM Holiday Recruiting.
If you could hold a get together for your mlm prospects over the holidays and recruit them ALL from ONE MEETING-would that be of help?
Yes, online meetings are possible too and we will cover that in another post, but LIVE face to face meetings during the holidays are CRITICAL as well as part of the holiday tradition.
It is called a “Get Together” and NOT a “meeting” as that is the “feel” it needs and also the focus it needs. “Meeting” often sends the wrong signal to the home business prospect. And they often think, “What do THEY want from me?” The term “get together” signals that is will be fun, friendly, and just some folks that are getting together to enjoy the holiday season. and that is what you want.
You want a NO AGENDA FEEL to the meeting and non-threatening. But if you do this Holiday Get Together right, you will recruit many folks during this meeting, as we did this for years.
The Holidays and especially Christmas, are known for the family time, as well as parties and get togethers. So this little holiday secret can work well within the culture of the holiday season.
How does this Get Together work?
Like any other gathering.
1. You pick a location to meet and gather with your team and guests.
Often this can be a restaurant that has a back room you can meet. A Starbucks would work, as well as someone’s home, but the best is a luncheon place you can grab a sandwich.
2. You celebrate the holidays with music playing and a festive feel to it.
Here is where you simply celebrate the holidays with people and good times. BUT- you talk about the next year and all it has to hold for the future, and how you are looking so forward to it.
3. Ask what each person attending wants to CHANGE in 2012 and WHY. Have them write it down if you have time and sheets of paper.
Get them talking about change. Ge them talking about what they are dissatisfied in life about. Get them to talk about the PERFECT YEAR and what 2012 would look like if it was.
THEY ARE TELLING YOU WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW- to recruit them.
4. Talk to them about needing a PLAN.
P = POSSIBILTY MAKER. They need something that is going to make the perfect year POSSIBLE.
L = LOVE. Talk to them about LOVING their life in 2012 and not just LIVING it. “Wouldn’t it be awesome to LOVE your life in 2012 and not just go through the motions of living it?”
A = ACTION. It is NOT going to happen if you are NOT taking action on something that will help them GET THERE.
N = NEW. Usually to LOVE life, you gotta do something NEW and do it NOW.
Then talk OPTIONS and what they have in their life to make 2012 the BEST YEAR they have ever had. Most have FEW options you will find.
Ask this question: “Are you wanting to be in a position next year NOT having to worry about income?”
Then simply say that you not sure what that NEW THING or Action would be, but you and your team would help them achieve their dreams in 2012 in any way possible.
THEN move on to giving out small gifts of SUCCESS. This could be “As a Man Thinketh” book by James Allen or a CD on Success. AND give away a CD of Holiday or Christmas music as well. Use your creativity. And at the end- meet the guests, and set up a time you get together with them individually with your team member that invited them.
This traditional method of creating a Holiday Recruiting Frenzy has proven to work and work well. I would encourage you to loo at doing this during the holidays, and if you do NOT have a big team, invite your friends and ask them to bring a guest.
This will increase your ability to build your business during a traditionally low activity season for the home business mlm profession.

Home Business Training-What EXACTLY To Say to a Negative Prospect?
home business argument
Prospects of a home business in mlm can say the darndest things. That reminds me of a kid’s show a while back, “Kids can say the Darndest things.”
But it is so true. Your home business prospect and also even family and friends can be NEGATIVE over nothing. You can take guidance of mysunrise over this.
But that is not just innate to network marketing. Every entrepreneur puts up with negheads almost on a daily basis when they are starting their business. In a Fortune magazine survey in 2001, they asked multi millionaire business owners what was their number one obstacle their first 12 months. Check these out fivebough .
Over 80% of them put friends and family. And of course prospects would fail in that category as well in a home business. It is like you just want to say to the negheads and naysayers:
“There they go again.”
One more time.
Friends and family spouting off Negative comments, input, and opinions about your home business and your MLM future. You can get so mad sometimes that you just want to walk away and say, “forget it” r something worse. You stare at them and wonder what to say or do, but yet the words of reply only get caught in your throat.
This is a battle yu will not win. People that are convinced of something do not want the facts. Been there.
You may attempt to play some form of “verbal judo,” or “word wrestling” but they have you in a head lock with their words and questions and you just slink back into the chair and can feel so defeated and dejected.
But here is the worst part and the most hurtful part to their negative comments:
They actually are starting to make sense with their logic. Or at least seem to.
You stand or sit there and just take the negative vomit.. And that is what it is spewing all over you and your home business . And you just wish you knew what to say. But you remain silent. It does make you think and wonder. And your mind starts to develop questions that can kill your home based business. And you actually start to ask these questions:
“Could they actually be right?”
“Are they telling me the truth?”
“Could they actually have a point here?”
“What if they really ARE right?”
And the doubt and the fear slowly start creeping in, and you start to question your own decisions, actions, and future.
This happens everyday in the land of home businesses and network marketing . Negative people start to try and stop you because of their own fears and insecurities and many times- they are very successful.
But it is time that cam to an abrupt halt.
Understand this:
Negative well meaning people — are still — negative. (Read that again.)
They may mean well, but there has never been any Success accomplished in any home business with a negative focus and a negative language.
So what do you do?
Here are 3 things that can say to help neutralize their negative comments when they appear out of their mouths:
1) “I appreciate that comment, but let me ask you a question: Who in the world sold you on THAT?”
2) “Thanks for sharing, but what you just said does not match up at all to what I have researched about this company and products. Would you like to see a little of my research?”
3)”That is an interesting way to look at it. There are several other ways to look at that I have found as well. Let me explain…”
And there is also a secret to doing this:
BOLD CONFIDENCE.
You KNOW that you KNOW that you KNOW and NOTHING can shake that Knowing that you are doing a great thing and will Succeed massively.
It is called the single most powerful “velvet hammer” when you answer a negative prospect. Confidence tells the negative MLM prospect that you understand that they have an “opinion” but you are not buying what they said. They will FEEL that in your words.
Most negative prospects are just that way: negative.
So you have a decision to make:
Are you going to let the negative mlm prospect influence or even dominate your business, or are you going to continue with confidence and not worry about the naysayers. the negheads, the not so hots, and the never will be’s?
It will determine much about your future success in your MLM and Network marketing business. These people have an influence over you and you may not realize it. They can either influence you to slow down or even quit, or influence you to prove them wrong and to go out and CRUSH IT.
I would suggest to ignore the negheads that are “eggheads” and move on with your business. They will NEVER pay a bill you have or really have anything positive to say about your business. Accept it and move on. You will be so glad you did as that is one of the biggest secrets to MLM network marketing and home business success.
