MLM Network Marketing Training -MLM Training- The Beginning New MLM Distributor Success Checklist Training

MLM Network Marketing Training –MLM Training- The Beginning New MLM Distributor Success Checklist Training

 

by Doug Firebaugh

 

A List for MLM Success.

 

That is what I am talking about here. Every new mlm distributor needs a checklist when they get started to create a “map” of what the need to do to get started.

 

Why?

 

Simple.

 

Duplication

 

If you have a checklist that a new network marketing distributor can follow and check off what he/she has done, then you have created a system that can not only be duplicated, but also taught.

By virtually anyone.

 

A checklist also will provide another thing besides duplication.

 

Accountability.

 

If a new MLM distributor knows that he/she will be asked about completing part of a checklist, then the odds of them doing it just went up a lot!

 

It simply shows the new Network Marketing distributor tasks that need to be done, and a good checklist will even have the date the task was done.

 

INFERNO Secret:

 

If a new mlm distributor has a list of things that they must do, the seriousness of the focus they have will increase significantly.

 

You, as a sponsor, must provide a PATH to success in the beginning that WALKS the new distributor through the first tasks that need to be done.

 

And it must be a step by step path.

 

Your checklist must have some form of direction to it and purpose. It cannot be just a list of tasks that are meaningless. They must be what will get the new mlm distributor prepared for the initial launch of their new MLM business.

 

There are many forms and kinds of checklists. I have seen many out in the industry, and all of them differed in some way.

 

It’s not the list itself that is important as the fact that there is a track to follow and a path that you can access as you get started in this business.

A list should contain 3 things:

 

1) Tasks that Set up the new distributor with the MLM company.

 

This part of the list should contain what is needed to get the new distributor in the computer and inventory ordered, and anything else your company requires you to so.

 

2) A list of what needs to be done to set up and engage the MLM business.

 

This can be as simple as a warm market list and a time to start calling the names.

 

3) Target Dates to accomplish the tasks in Network Marketing.

 

Make the dates have a sense of urgency but not intimidating to the new person…

 

And a list should always be “user friendly — easy to follow ad not complicated as this will expedite the new mlm distributor’s willingness to get it done quicker.

 

Here is checklist that will work for any new distributor and get them focused and on track for Network Marketing success:

 

 

Steps to MLM Success for a New MLM Distributor

 

 

1) Make sure all the paperwork is in and Product ordered.

 

Date:______________________________ 

 

 

2) Schedule the first MLM Training Session and Kick off Meeting

 

Date:________________________________

 

Kick Off Meeting Agenda for New MLM Distributor: 

 

 

3) Go over the New distributor Manual-Section by Section

 

Date:_________________________________ 

 

4) Call and get 3 way calling set up on their phone

 

Date:__________________________________

 

5) Go through the tools and brochures and answer any questions

 

Date:__________________________________

 

6) Start the warm market and “Hello it’s Me” letter list (Memory Jogger)

 

Date:___________________________________

 

7) Go through Fast Start Training (If applicable)

 

Date: ___________________________________

 

8) Role Play with new distributor approach and 3 way script

 

Date:_______________________________________

 

9) Set time to start 3 way calls

 

Date:_________________________________________

 

10) Plan First Exposure Meeting with warm market

 

Date:_________________________________________ 

 

 

As you can see, the first part is to get the paperwork out of the way, and then you do what I call a “Kick Off Meeting”. This is a meeting that is set to train and officially “kick off” the business of the new mlm distributor.

 

 

INFERNO Secret:

 

Every new network marketing distributor needs an “Official Start” to their mlm business, and a Kick Off meeting accomplishes that. It is the starting point of where the new network marketing distributor starts working their business.

 

Follow the steps to the Kick off meeting and if there is a Fast Start training from your company, go over that with them. PassionFire has a Fast Start Training as well if your mlm company does not have one.

 

The tools are VERY important. Go over all the tools with the new mlm distributor, and make sure they have an understanding of them.

 

Role play with the new mlm distributor with 3 way calling. This is a MUST! It will help create confidence in them and also show them the power in the 3 way..

 

Then plan their first exposure meeting, usually in their home, or a luncheon, or just setting appointments with the new distributor to go see people.

 

Go over this checklist with the new mlm distributor, and START THEM OFF RIGHT for MLM Success in Network Marketing .

MLM Network Marketing Training-MLM Recruiting- The Secret MLM Prospecting Formula for Becoming 10 Feet Tall and Bulletproof!

MLM Network Marketing Training-MLM Recruiting- The Secret MLM Prospecting Formula for Becoming 10 Feet Tall and Bulletproof!

by Doug Firebaugh

It happens everyday.

Network Marketers go out, and get shot down. And they lay in their own pool of pity and excuses, never knowing that the whole scenario could have been prevented. Network Marketing recruiting is not a hazardous occupation, but you would never know it from some folks.

That is why you need “body armor.”

Just like the kind that the Special Ops Commandos use in their operations. If they get shot at,the armor reflects or stops the bullet, and they live. You need that kind of armor in MLM, and you need to become 10 Feet Tall and Bulletproof in MLM Prospecting!

Great! But how do you do that?

Easy. It all deals with reflecting the bullets of rejection from your mlm prospects, and doing it handily. That is something that anyone can do, and anyone can succeed at, as reflecting “rejection bullets” is handled by what we call a “Third Party Recruiter.”

What is that?

It simply is a recruiting tool, CD, DVD, or Brochure, or website/webcast, or any other tool that you can use to tell the story of the Network Marketing Company you enrolled in.

All you do, is ask them if they have a few minutes, as you would like to share an idea with them, that has really helped your life.

“Do you have a cd player in your car?”

“Yeah sure.”

Could you please do me a favor, and put this in and listen to it as you drive home?” It is that simple.

All you are doing with these recruiting tools are “sifting and sorting” as they call it, mlm prospects. I call it “Rating and Separating.” You simply are rating the ones who show an interest as High, and the rest you are separating into a group for possible product purchases. Again, it is that simple.

And when you have given them a CD or DVD, and it has been a day or so, call them, and ask, “What was your favorite part about the DVD?” or “What did you like the best about the CD?” Assume they have listened to it, and focus them on what they liked best.

If they did not like it, you did not have to do a presentation, or go through the whole scenario of your mlm company. You saved a lot of time using a recruiting tool. And they did not reject you, but simply did not embrace the message that the tool shared with them.

It is called “Rejection Proof” Prospecting and Recruiting! And it can make you feel 10 Feet Tall and Bulletproof because they did not tell you NO, but told you that the CD message was not for them.

But wait! It gets better!

You can fail 80%-90% of the time and still create a solid business with MLM prospecting tools! And you would be 10 Feet Tall and Spitting Bullets then! How would that happen?

It all deals with understanding the numbers in Network Marketing Success.

It revolves around sharing a recruiting CD/DVD/Brochure, 2 times a day with someone new. That is all. Just twice a day. We call it the “Two A Day” Formula, and lets say that you have 5 people in your group that is willing to hand out 2 CDs a day. Here is what has proven to happen:

5 people x 2 exposures a day= 10 EXPOSURES a day.

10 exposures a day x 30 days= 300 exposures a month.

300 exposures monthly x 12 months= 3600 EXPOSURES a year.

That would yield for the year about:

720 new customers (2 out of 10 prospects purchasing-20%- 20% of 3600= 720.)

180 new distributors (5 out of 100 prospects enrolling in your company- 5%- 5% of 3600= 180.)

1440 referrals (2 referrals from the 720 new customers on average. You will average selling 3 out of 10 referrals.)

What would happen to your business if THIS HAPPENED? KABOOOOOM!

You would become 10 Feet tall, and Chewing Bullets for Gum! 720 NEW CUSTOMERS! 180 NEW DISTRIBUTORS! 1440 REFERRALS! And that is with a 80% FAILURE RATE!

And all you do, is hand out 2 mlm prospecting tools a day. Thats it, and let the numbers do their work.

How simple is that? This is all we did for 10 years, and built a HUGE group, as this simple Two a Day is totally duplicable, and multiplies!

Become 10 Feet Tall and Bulletproof in your MLM prospecting, by allowing this simple system to wrap you in “MLM Success Armor” and never feel the pain of rejection again! Let the recruiting tool take the hit, as you simply take the CD back. And give it to the next person!

It is NOT all about Talent, but TOOLS! And using them as a Third Party Recruiter/Prospector will help explode any business out there. And It is REJECTION PROOF Prospecting/Recruiting!

That alone would make anyone 10 Feet Tall and BulletProof in MLM Recruiting!

MLM Training- The 5 Secrets of SCORCHING MLM Training

MLM Secrets for Building a Home Business

MLM Secrets of Scorching Home Business Training

MLM Network Marketing Training-MLM Training- The 5 Secrets of SCORCHING MLM Training

Network Marketing Reality.

Network marketing training is imperative. You must have good training on many subjects, including Recruiting, Retailing, Prospecting, Contacting, Presenting, Getting the Decision, and Building a group. Those are just the start of a solid MLM Training program. You don’t need to be a marketing major but you will need elbow grease and the willingness to get out there.

But I have found after 22 years in this industry, that there are 5 main things that a great MLM Training program needs. Many folks who could have been superstars in the Direct Marketing industry never were, because of weak training.

There is a difference between Training and education. Education is classroom instruction. Training is in the trenches. It SHOWS the distributor what needs to be done, not just tell what needs to be done. So FIRST comes the education in a classroom style teaching,then comes the trenches and showing them how it is done. All great mlm training is done in this way, and it is a powerful way to empower your business.

What are the 5 things a KILLER mlm training should have?

1) A Duplicable Process.

This is common sense, and we have all heard it before. You need to have a step by step process that is easy to follow, and is a PATTERN that new folks can follow, and learn. we live in a sequenced based world, and we follow a sequence in everything we do. That is why that the process needs to be duplicable. If you cannot duplicate what you are doing, then you will have a hard time building any kind of a long term business.

2) Tools to Teach.

Every KILLER Training has Tools that the new person can use and master. These include cds, dvds, brochures, training manuals, online training, flash trainings, conference calls training, Saturday Training events, and one on one teachings.

There is a saying that I love- “It’s not just about Talent, but TOOLS.” MLM Training Tools are necessary to bridge the gap between inexperience, and experience with the new distributor. And one of the most powerful tools you can have at the start is a CD that you can listen to while in the car. This is a great way to learn the business, and ge the information inside your soul.

3) Complete Content.

Many companies I have been blessed to work with lacked COMPLETE training in their programs. They had some format of mlm training, but not covering ALL aspects of what a new distributor needs. This could include training even on what to do on a daily basis, product training, corporate training, compensation training, and even the start of Leadership training.

The question all trainig should answer is “What do I do next?” If that question is answered, then you can pretty much bet that the training program is close to complete if not complete.

4) A Success Path.

Every distributor needs a Success path. This is a Path that they travel, to hit the first goal or promotion in the Compensation plan. It has daily goals, daily activities, timelines, how many calls a day, how many sales a week, how many recruits a month, and how much volume a month. This Success Path will be a day by day, call by call, action by action plan that will actually steer the new peson to Success over a period of time.

A Success Path is only a Path, and not a magic bullet. It is up to the new person to walk it. Most new distributors will, if given the opportunity, and the road to travel.

Take MLM Training LIVE.

5) Role Playing.

There is NOTHING as powerful as Role Playing with the new distibutor. It gives them “Artifical Experience” that psychologically will prepare them for the real thing. It will help develop a “feeling” or “Pattern” of what to do and say, and handle any situations that come up. There is no feeling like when a new person “gets it” and understands what they are supposed to do, and how to do it, THEN doing it. It is imperative to Role Play with your new person. It gets them ready for the real thing, in a quick and powerful fashion.

These are the 5 Secrets of KILLER MLM Training, and what great training should have in Network Marketing training.

MLM Network Marketing Training-MLM Recruiting- The 2 MLM Success Secrets of Rejection Proof Prospecting

MLM Network Marketing Training-

MLM Recruiting- The 2 MLM Success Secrets of Rejection Proof Prospecting

by Doug Firebaugh

MLM Rejection.

Rejection.

You gotta love it.

It is the only thing in Network marketing that will actually build your Success Muscles in the MLM Business. But many folks cannot handle it, nor want to go near it.

They just don’t understand it.

Not a problem. This article will teach you how to start embracing the 2 MLM Secrets of MLM Rejection Proof Prospecting, in MLM.  It is easy. I embraced this truth  for years, and it will help you create a pattern of emotional mangement and understanding that will help you succeed massively in the face of seemingly endless negatives and NOs.

Embracing these 2 MLM Success Secrets of Rejection Free Prospecting will alone help you move past the negatives in this business. It truly helped me, and thousands of people in our business. It is a radical paradigm shift concerning rejection, but you need to make the shift, if you are going to succeed in network marketing and mlm.

The 2 Network Marketing Secrets.

What are these 2 MLM Success Secrets of Rejection Proof Prospecting?

1) People Never Reject You. They only reject themselves.

The truth is, they are only rejecting themselves from the possiblity of Success in their life. It is NOT about you, or anything to do with you. It is simply them rejecting Success in their life as they have been taught to do, with the MLM Success Message you have. Period.

Many people will NEVER see themselves as Successful, and because of that, no matter what you do, say, or think, many folks will reject themselves and stop that from ever happening in their life. They are programmed and conditioned early in life to do that.

They do that with a tiny little word: NO.

They simply do not want to experience the anticipated disappointment of not succeeding, as they have felt so much before in their life. It would only validate again what they grew up hearing, and learning about their inevitable lack of Success. And they many times deep down inside, do not want you to succeed either, as they are afraid you would leave them behind.

Brutal? Yes. 

Sad?  Yes. 

The Truth? Absolutely.

When people start telling you “NO” in this mlm business, understand that most of them are NOT telling YOU No,  but they are saying NO to themselves, to their potential Success they could have had, and to the possibility of an Extraordinary future. And it is NOT just about MLM or network marketing, but about anything that offers some type of Entreprenurial Success.

The MLM NO.

The Word “NO” to them simply stands for “Not Open.”

They believe that their life has no other options except what they are living, no matter how good your network marketing business sounds, and thusly, they are Not Open to any other possible life or future. They have closed the door to Success.

The Second MLM Success Secret of Rejection Proof Prospecting you must understand is:

2)There is NO SUCH THING as REJECTION. There is only DECEPTION.

Many people today that you will be talking to about your MLM Business, have been DECEIVED into believing that Success is for others but not for them. Success is something that is not a normal part of their makeup. Success, they believe, is only for those lucky few. They again, were programmed to believe this, and what they were taught was taught by people who learned to expect the same out of life. It is a generational conditioning.

They will listen to your presentation, and many times appear they are ‘with you.” But they are just going through the motions. They did not get the message you communicated, nor the info. They were listening, but did not HEAR. Their Lack conditioning was dominating the moment.

Many folks are deceived into believing that they are powerless to do anything else, except live a “normal life,” and accept what life gives them, and not reach for anything more in life.

The 3 Step MLM Deception Formula.

It is a three step formula:

1) Instruction – 2) Deception – 3) Acceptance.

They are instructed at an early age that Massive Success is for others, not them, and then end up being deceived from the truth of what could be in their life. And then they accept it as their lot in life, and the only life they could ever live.

Then, when you show up, with all your dreams, hopes, desires, and excitement about your MLM business, and they end up telling you NO, they in reality, are telling themselves NO. And once again, walk away from a very possible, could be Successful life. And this is not the first time they have ever done this, nor will it be the last.

It had nothing to do with you, but EVERYTHING to do with them and how they see life, and themselves living it.

And as a network marketer, you need to pour into their life, and encourage them. A true MLM professional will always encourage people who live in the Land of Lack and dwell in the lower State of Mediocrity.

It really does not matter that they have told you NO. They still can become a customer.

We always taught our folks to give a lot of the prospects who tell them NO, a copy of the little book “As a Man Thinketh,” by James Allen. It really opened up a lot of their eyes and it is a great gift that can bring you referrals in the future. And there are also free copies of it you can download on the internet as well. It will help your negative prospects, and set you above the crowd.

REMEMBER- Prospects never reject you, only themselves. And they do that because of one of life’s greatest deceptions, and we all can struggle with if we are not careful.

Embrace these 2 MLM Success Secrets of Rejection Proof Prospecting, and warch your Success enlarge dramatically in Network Marketing and MLM Recruiting.

MLM Network Marketing Training-How To Properly Follow-Up With Your Prospects Online So They Join Your MLM Program And Make You Money!

MLM Network Marketing Training-How To Properly Follow-Up With Your Prospects Online So They Join Your MLM Program And Make You Money!

by Christopher Sewell

Email is a fantastic follow-up tool when used correctly. One of the biggest mistakes people make on the Internet is using spam to sell their products or build their MLM business. Purchasing email addresses on CD-ROM, buying an “opt-in” lists, or safe-lists are sure ways to be accused of spamming and to get your email connection terminated by your ISP. Luckily, there is a better way. The best way to follow-up with your online prospects is by using “personalized” email. Once you have the lead in your hand, now what? You should use “personalized” follow-up messages to communicate the benefits of your program to your prospect.

MLM Direct Mail.

Using direct mail, it’s almost impossible to personalize each follow-up letter to your prospects at a reasonable cost. Yes, there are company’s that will take your database of names and do a mail merge for you. But they charge big money. You could also print off each letter on your printer, but that gets expensive with all the laser or ink jet cartridges you will use. Plus, it’s time consuming to print, fold and stuff.

Personalizing your email follow-up messages will get your prospect to pay close attention to your message. People love to see their name on things. This lets them know that it’s for them. I always get a better response from prospects when I personalize email messages to them. Just like there is mail-merge software to produce printed letters, there is email merge software to produce email messages with the prospects name all throughout the letter.

The best thing about following up using email and email merge software is that you can automate the entire process. You don’t have to query your mlm database to look for the next round of follow-up letters to go out like you would have to do using the mail. You can simply let the software I’m about to tell you about do the job for you. Once the template letter is created and the names and email addresses are loaded – just let the software do the work for you.

You can even use different follow-up letters if you like. When you’re building your MLM business on the Internet, there is absolutely no excuse for poor follow-up habits like there were when people used the mail to recruit. The software is available. You just have to get it and use it. Anyone who doesn’t is just darn lazy!

…enter MLM smart auto-responders…

These are like fax-on-demand systems. You send a message to a special email address, and the email address automatically sends a message back to the person who initiated the request. I call these “smart auto-responders” because you can setup these auto-responders to send up to 10 different messages over a 90 day period, once the first message is triggered. Each message can have the prospects name right inside the message.

Of course, you can’t have any fancy fonts or formatting. But that’s not what’s important. A good sales letter is a good sales letter…pretty formatting or not. I suggest that you schedule your follow-up letters to be sent 10 days apart. This means you can have 10 follow-up letters going to each prospect over a 90 day period. Now, this is excellent follow-up work.

You don’t have to actually create 10 different sales letters. All you need is one. ONE GOOD ONE! I’ll show you very soon how to use a special technique called the “probe” to make each letter seem a little different.

What you’ll also like about these smart auto-responders is that they will automatically remove people from the list without you doing anything. At the bottom of your message will be simple instructions on how to be removed from the list.

…tips on creating your follow-up sales message…

As you already know, follow-up is very important. You must hit your prospect with your follow-up message numerous times before they will take you seriously and join. Of course, not all will join. Actually, most will not. But, it’s the small number that do join that makes a difference between success and failure. At least when you implement an automatic follow-up system using a “smart auto-responder”, you now have a chance to be successful in your MLM program.

You will need to create at least one hard-hitting sales letter. You already know how to do this. Then cut and paste that one letter into the “message” input field of the “smart auto-responder”. You will need 10 follow-up messages, which can be easily created from the one sales letter you already have. But, wait, you need to make each follow-up letter seem a little different from the last one. Otherwise, people will get bored with what you send them and just delete your message automatically, or they will remove themselves from your list.

The Network Marketing Probe.

To make each follow-up letter seem different, I suggest that you use what’s commonly called a “probe.” A probe simply goes at the beginning of each follow-up letter.

…what is a probe and how to use it…

What you must also keep in mind when you work online to build your business is that people are notorious for asking for information and then doing nothing with it. People will request information on this and that, and never get back to you again. You can re-send the same information, but still never get a response. This is when the “probe” comes into play.

The “probe” is a simple one word, one sentence, or one paragraph question that asks the prospect to respond to you. It pokes them, nuggies them, or plain slaps them on the back of the head until they answer you. Let me give you a few examples of “probes” I use:

PROBE #1: “Did you get this?”

PROBE #2: “I’m still waiting for you to get back to me on this. Please respond.”

PROBE #3: “Have you read the letter below? It shows you all the benefits of our program. What questions to you have about getting started?”

PROBE #4: “I’m getting a little concerned now. It’s been 30 days and STILL no respond from you. You did get this, right?”

PROBE #5: “Everyone here in the office is SHOCKED that you haven’t joined us yet. What questions can I answer for you? Do you need assistance filling out the application? Do you have questions about our support and training? Do you have any questions at all. Please get back to me. Is everything okay over there? All you have to do is hit ‘REPLY’ on your email program and talk to me.”

PROBE #6: “STANDING BY…”

PROBE #7: “WELL?”

PROBE #8: “Okay, it looks like you weren’t serious about starting a successful MLM business. After all, I still haven’t heard a peep from you. It’s quite common for people to request information on the internet and then sit there and do nothing. You may wonder why I’m still on your back. Well, very often we request information from businesses and they just forget about us. You never hear a peep from them again. But I run a different type of business. I want you to know that I haven’t forgotten about you. As you can see, I haven’t. Talk to me. Call me at (301)555-5555 today.”

PROBE# #9: “Call me today at (310)555-5555. I need to speak to you!”

PROBE #10: “You’re making this tough. I invited you to email me…and you haven’t. I asked you to call me…and you haven’t. You continue to ignore me. Why?”

I bet you never seen marketing like this before, have you? As you can see, each “probe” is designed to drag a response from your prospect. The “probe” is designed to get some dialogue going so you can answer their objections and ultimately sign them up into your program. Will some people like this kind of “in-your-face” marketing, some will, some won’t. The ones that don’t like it will simply ask to be removed. Others will thank you for caring, and ask you more questions or tell you they are not ready yet.

What you’ll also like about the “smart auto-responders” is that you can weave the person’s first name into the probe to make it more POWERFUL. Something like:

“Did you get this Chris?”
“Chris, I’m STILL waiting for your response”
“Have you read the letter below, Chris?”

Yes, personalized probing will get people talking to you. Just cut and paste each probe at the top of each sales letter. Then, let the software do its job and follow-up for you while you do other things. One more quick thing. When you create your sales letter for use in emails or auto-responders, first create the letter in text format. Use only 60 characters per line with hard returns at the end of each line. This helps to keep your message formatted neatly.

MLM Network Marketing Training -MLM Success on the Telephone

MLM Network Marketing Training -MLM Success on the Telephone

Tom "Big Al" Schreiter here.

If you want to prospect effectively over the phone, here is how to do it. I am the worst telephone person. I hate the telephone. I am phonophobic.

The telephone just makes me nervous. In fact, several people have this joke about me: Don't get Big Al and a distributor on a three-way telephone call with a prospect.

Why?

Because not only will the prospect not join, but the mlm distributor will quit! Well, I'm not that bad, but I certainly am not the person to teach people good telephone prospecting techniques. So here is what I did.

Several years ago I took one of the world's best telephone recruiters, Tom Paredes, into a recording studio. I interviewed Tom and asked him exactly what he says and does that is so successful.

For example, Tom said: There are three primary reasons why people have a hard time sponsoring.

1. Prospects are sales-resistant and they hate to sell.

2. Prospects have a low self-esteem.

3. Prospects don't like change. Want to overcome these three obstacles? Give your prospects a set of instructions to follow. Prospects can follow instructions because that's what they do at work . . .

Anyway, you and your downline will love this interview. The entire interview is now on two CDs.

And, I also had the entire interview transcribed, so that you can download it and read every word of this 26-page interview. The transcript is completely free. You just have to go to: http://www.sponsoringtips.com and download the transcript.

MLM Network Marketing Training-Give ’em an MLM headache, then make ’em ASK YOU for the Aspirin

MLM Network Marketing Training-Give ’em an MLM headache, then make ’em ASK YOU for the Aspirin

by Joshua Shafran

What if sponsoring was as easy as selling aspirin to people with headaches? What if you created an atmosphere with every person you came across where they felt lucky you decided to show them your MLM opportunity? Where they jumped for joy if they were selected and approved for team membership. Would sponsoring become fun, exciting, and simple in Network Marketing?

If banks can do it, why can’t you? Think about it. Banks make money by renting out money, don’t they? Yet, how do we feel when we get “approved for the loan?” We jump for joy and feel lucky, don’t we? But how crazy is that? That’s like going into a supermarket and kissing the manager’s feet because he LET you buy a loaf of bread!

The Secret to Network Marketing

The secret of applying this to your networking is to make your prospect want what you have before you offer it to them. In the broadest sense, there’s only two motivating reasons why someone will join your network. They join either to gain pleasure or to avoid pain. Here’s a little known fact: More people will join your network out of a desire to stop the pain than will EVER join because of all the pleasure they’ll get. Yet, what do most MLM’ers do? They push aside the most powerful persuader they’ve got and overwhelm their prospects with why their deal is the greatest and why they’ve “got to get in on it now!”

You can easily triple your sponsoring efforts if you demonstrate all the pain that your prospect is currently living with that will cease to exist if they are selected to join your team. Now, don’t misunderstand, I’m NOT saying you shouldn’t present the benefits of your business, but your sponsoring results will go up dramatically if you use the carrot AND the stick!

So, your job (and it’s really fun once you know how to do it) is to go around giving people headaches and then curing their pain. Once a prospect knows (or admits it to him or herself) what they are missing and (more importantly) that there is, in fact, a better way – something more for them – they want a way to get there immediately!!!

They desperately want someone to provide them with the leadership and direction to change the situation. They instantly want someone to coach them… an expert to show the way… a consultant to guide them… a trusted confidant to provide advice. And, that someone is you.

The Hidden MLM Pain.

Here’s the catch (you knew there had to be a catch, right?): Sometimes your prospect’s pain is hidden. Your prospect has been living with the pain for so long that they’ve gone numb to protect themselves against it. The trick is to tactfully shake them up a little. “How?”, you ask.

Questions Are The Answers

The best way to do this is with questions. Questions allow you to step inside your prospect’s head. By asking questions just like a doctor does, the prospect tells you where it hurts and in so doing begins to feel and experience the pain again. Questions are so powerful. They allow you to lead and direct the conversation down the path you wish to go… they build trust and rapport… they make people feel important. Think about it: Who would you rather be around; the person who talks intelligently about a number of different topics while you listen, or the person who asks you a number of intelligent questions and listens with genuine interest to what you have to say?

If you simply TELL people how you have this great opportunity then they can (and usually will) doubt you. But, by asking questions and getting your prospect to TELL YOU the same thing, they BELIEVE and ACCEPT it as a fact! And, because it’s now their idea, they’ll move heaven and earth to get it.

Learning to ask questions instead of asserting statements about your MLM can take a little getting used to. At first, you might feel a little like you’re learning a foreign language, and in a sense you are. You’ve got to think in terms of questions. From now on, every time you’re tempted to tell your prospect something, rethink it in your head and ask it as a question. There isn’t any statement you can make about your MLM that cannot be rephrased and expressed as a question.

Network Marketing Questions.

If you want to get good at sponsoring, spend an entire day every so often and try not to make one statement… just ask questions and listen to the answers. If you accept this challenge, you’ll attract people to you like moths to a flame. People you just met will tell you they feel like they’ve known you their entire lives. People will open up to you. When they open up, they trust you. When they trust, they’ll tell you where they hurt and experience that pain. When they feel the pain, they want it to stop… which is exactly the opening you’ve been searching for!

When you prospect someone (be it online through a web site, email, telephone, in person, etc.) you give them a headache. You build in them an earnest desire to join and make it their idea. Every day of their life they experience some pain or frustration that your MLM opportunity will eliminate. Find it. Ask questions to uncover it. Don’t assume you already know what it is. Make them tell you. As they answer, they’ll experience that pain and naturally want to end to it. Then, casually let them know that you might (if they’re lucky) be able to stop it. Now, they WANT what you’re offering… and it was their idea! So now you’re doing them the favor and they are grateful to you.

This whole process can happen very quickly and it’s easier than it sounds. Start off by asking open ended questions that requires your prospect to explain. Here’s an example: “If you could change any aspect of your financial situation, what would you change?” Think about the idea behind this question and you will see how it can be adapted in any number of ways depending on who you’re prospecting.

If you really involve yourself and take a genuine interest in your prospect’s frustrations, you’ll come up with an endless supply of follow up questions. For example: “John, if you could change any aspect of your job situation, what would change? Are the number of hours too much? Is job security a concern? Are you on the road too much? Would it help you to be making more money? Do you find yourself less patient as a result? How does it affect your relationship with your wife? Have you saved enough to send Amy to college or will she have to wait a couple of years?”

Here’s one more REALLY good follow-up question: “If you were not working 80 hours a week and spent some quality time with your son, do you think you could have stopped him from getting hooked on drugs, stealing cars, and getting in gang fights every week?” (JUST JOKING!)

Although that was a joke, its implications are very real. Those kind of fears, pains and worries are extremely persuasive and motivating. So, for each area of dissatisfaction and pain, make sure you don’t leave out the most important question, “How does that affect you?” This will get your prospect to think about and feel the consequences of the problem (or potential problem).

Once they tell you the consequences, you’ve given them a full blown headache, now it’s time to make ’em ask you for the aspirin. Here again, use questions like “What would it mean to you if I could provide… __________?” If you fill in the blank with the benefits your opportunity can provide, tailored to what you know (from your questions) your prospect wants, and you will make them stand in line and beg to join your network!

MLM Network Marketing Training-MLM Newsletters- The Top 17 Network Marketin Training Ezines

MLM Network Marketing Training-

MLM Newsletters- The Top 17 Network Marketin Training Ezines

by Doug Firebaugh

 

 

A good MLM training newsletter is worth a million dollars to a distributor in Network Marketing. Many Network Marketing newsletters/ezines can be found out there, and there are some really good ones. But there are also some newsletters that are not so good.

 

What do you do? Subscribe to them all and read them for a year, and then decide yourself? (You’ve got to be kidding!)

 

You don’t have to. We have already done that. We subscribed to over 100 MLM training ezines, (whew!) and found some really good ones, and others that are ones we cannot recommend. (There were 14 total people that read the newsletters regularly, and the top 17 list is the consensus of the 14 people.)

 

What were the criteria that we used to look at these network marketing newsletters?

 

1)      Constant fresh and unique training content.

 

We looked for a consistency in content, and fresh content. Many newsletters we found ran some of the same articles in their ezine. Others changed the titles, and kept the content the same.

 

We simply asked this question: Is the content unique and fresh and trains folks, not just motivates them. Many ezines were a lot of motivation, but little training. There is nothing wrong with that, but if you are looking for a training newsletter, it can be a little frustrating. What we found is that many were highly motivational, but not educational.  We support motivation by all means! But we could not include them in our top 17 MLM training ezine list.

 

2)      Delivery of the newsletter regularly.

 

We found that many ezines were emailed out every once so often, and not on any kind of a schedule. We felt that if you are going to be depending on a training letter as a way to learn this business, then you need to know that the delivery of content will be consistent, and dependable.

 

Either once a week, or twice a month was the average delivery time of the most read newsletters, and that seems to be what people are looking for.

 

3)      Topics focused on for what the distributor needs to learn to succeed.

 

 

The best newsletters we found had a focus of topics that would be what the average networker would need to know to create a successful business. These topics include recruiting, prospecting, approaching people, handling objections, doing presentations, following up, closing, training, building a downline, motivating your group, leadership, personal development, doing events, new distributor training, and advanced training in MLM and Network Marketing.

 

Many of the newsletters were too focused on one or two topics, and never varied for a more complete training program. There is nothing wrong with that, but a total training focus is what we were looking for.

 

4)      The Look and Feel of the MLM  training newsletter.

 

Many of the newsletters were only text, no graphics, but had great content. Many of the newsletters looked incredible, but their content was very weak. We found that the best training MLM newsletters had both. Even the text ezines were well put together, and had great content. A great example of that is Tom Big Al Schreiter’s Fortune Now Newsletter. It contains great stuff and it’s all text.

 

The feel of the training ezine was also important. Did they come across like authority writing? Was the feel of it directing, leading,  and teaching people? Was the feel of the newsletter friendly and warm, or cold? This was another factor that was part of the over all consideration.

 

5)      Did the newsletter want you to tell others about it?

 

This was a real big consideration. We talked to some folks that had subscribed to many of them, and they all basically said the same thing: The newsletters that they were talking about were the same ones.

 

This was important, as the content needs to be exciting, and strong enough for people to want to tell their team about it.

 

These were the 5 Most Important considerations of the Top 17 MLM Training Newsletters. There were other considerations as well, like popularity on search engines, ease of subscribing, reprints on sites, etc.

 

What are the top 17 MLM Newsletters and Network Marketing ezines? (These are in no particular order, as all are number one MLM training newsletters!)

 

1)      Fortune Now Newsletter   /   http://www.fortunenow.com

2)      PF HEAT Training Letter     http://www.mlmleadership.com

3)      MLM Players Ezine              http://www.mlmplayers.com

4)      I Love MLM Letter                 http://www.ilovemlm.com

5)      Randy’s Rants                       http://www.networkmarketingtimes.com

6)      Nexera e news                      http://www.nexera.com

7)      Networking Times ezine      http://www.networkingtimes.com

8)      Greatest Networker ezine    http://www.greatestnetworker.com

9)      Cutting Edge Media             http://www.cuttingedgemedia.com

10)  MLM Brilliance letter            http://www.mlmbrilliance.com

11)  Club Rhino                            http://www.clubrhino.com

12)  MLM Lifestyles                     http://www.mlmdevelopment.com

13)  Golden Mastermind             http://www.goldenmastermind.com

14)  DSWA                                   http://www.mydswa.org

15)  Find Your Why                      http://www.findyourwhy.com

16)  MLM Woman Newsletter /  http://www.mlmwoman.com

17)  Leads2YourSuccess           http://www.leads2yoursuccess.com

 

 

Do your due diligence, and get archived copies of these MLM Training Newsletters, and read them and see what you are drawn towards, and want to subscribe to. These Network Marketing ezines are all great, and will help educate anyone on the Success aspects of this business.

 

And by the way, if you don’t care for the Network Marketing newsletter that you subscribe to, it should have a very easy unsubscribe process.

 

These are the best of the best MLM Training Newsletters as far as learning MLM and Network Marketing. Yes, there are great internet training newsletters out there, as well as home based business as well. But these are focused on Power learning MLM and these are the most powerful of all the MLM Newsletters and Network Marketing ezines.

MLM Network Marketing Training MLM Recruiting- The Secret MLM Prospecting Formula for Becoming 10 Feet Tall and Bulletproof!

MLM Network Marketing Training MLM Recruiting- The Secret MLM Prospecting Formula for Becoming 10 Feet Tall and Bulletproof!

by Doug Firebaugh

 

MLM Body Armor.

It happens everyday.

Network Marketers go out, and get shot down. And they lay in their own pool of pity and excuses, never knowing that the whole scenario could have been prevented. Network Marketing recruiting is not a hazardous occupation, but you would never know it from some folks.

That is why you need “body armor.”

Just like the kind that the Special Ops Commandos use in their operations. If they get shot at,the armor reflects or stops the bullet, and they live. You need that kind of armor in MLM, and you need to become 10 Feet Tall and Bulletproof in MLM Prospecting!

Great! But how do you do that?

Easy. It all deals with reflecting the bullets of rejection from your mlm prospects, and doing it handily. That is something that anyone can do, and anyone can succeed at, as reflecting “rejection bullets” is handled by what we call a “Third Party Recruiter.”

What is that?

It simply is a recruiting tool, CD, DVD, or Brochure, or website/webcast, or any other tool that you can use to tell the story of the Network Marketing Company you enrolled in.

All you do, is ask them if they have a few minutes, as you would like to share an idea with them, that has really helped your life.

“Do you have a cd player in your car?”

“Yeah sure.”

Could you please do me a favor, and put this in and listen to it as you drive home?” It is that simple.

All you are doing with these recruiting tools are “sifting and sorting” as they call it, mlm prospects. I call it “Rating and Separating.” You simply are rating the ones who show an interest as High, and the rest you are separating into a group for possible product purchases. Again, it is that simple.

And when you have given them a CD or DVD, and it has been a day or so, call them, and ask, “What was your favorite part about the DVD?” or “What did you like the best about the CD?” Assume they have listened to it, and focus them on what they liked best.

If they did not like it, you did not have to do a presentation, or go through the whole scenario of your mlm company. You saved a lot of time using a recruiting tool. And they did not reject you, but simply did not embrace the message that the tool shared with them.

It is called “Rejection Proof” Prospecting and Recruiting! And it can make you feel 10 Feet Tall and Bulletproof because they did not tell you NO, but told you that the CD message was not for them.

The Network Marketing Wealth of Failure.

But wait! It gets better!

You can fail 80%-90% of the time and still create a solid business with MLM prospecting tools! And you would be 10 Feet Tall and Spitting Bullets then! How would that happen?

It all deals with understanding the numbers in Network Marketing Success.

It revolves around sharing a recruiting CD/DVD/Brochure, 2 times a day with someone new. That is all. Just twice a day. We call it the “Two A Day” Formula, and lets say that you have 5 people in your group that is willing to hand out 2 CDs a day. Here is what has proven to happen:

5 people x 2 exposures a day= 10 EXPOSURES a day.

10 exposures a day x 30 days= 300 exposures a month.

300 exposures monthly x 12 months= 3600 EXPOSURES a year.

That would yield for the year about:

720 new customers (2 out of 10 prospects purchasing-20%- 20% of 3600= 720.)

180 new distributors (5 out of 100 prospects enrolling in your company- 5%- 5% of 3600= 180.)

1440 referrals (2 referrals from the 720 new customers on average. You will average selling 3 out of 10 referrals.)

What would happen to your business if THIS HAPPENED? KABOOOOOM!

You would become 10 Feet tall, and Chewing Bullets for Gum! 720 NEW CUSTOMERS! 180 NEW DISTRIBUTORS! 1440 REFERRALS! And that is with a 80% FAILURE RATE!

And all you do, is hand out 2 mlm prospecting tools a day. Thats it, and let the numbers do their work.

How simple is that? This is all we did for 10 years, and built a HUGE group, as this simple Two a Day is totally duplicable, and multiplies!

Become 10 Feet Tall and Bulletproof in your MLM prospecting, by allowing this simple system to wrap you in “MLM Success Armor” and never feel the pain of rejection again! Let the recruiting tool take the hit, as you simply take the CD back. And give it to the next person!

It is NOT all about Talent, but TOOLS! And using them as a Third Party Recruiter/Prospector will help explode any business out there. And It is REJECTION PROOF Prospecting/Recruiting!

That alone would make anyone 10 Feet Tall and BulletProof in MLM Recruiting!

MLM Network Marketing Training- MLM Secrets To Effectively Using Offline Advertising To Build Your Online MLM Business

MLM Network Marketing Training- MLM Secrets To Effectively Using Offline Advertising To Build Your Online MLM Business

By Jeff Schuman

Copyright © 2004 Jeff Schuman

First of all let me say that having spent the past 20 years working closely with small businesses I know exactly what works when it comes to offline advertising. Especially in Network Marketing.

What I have found today is that that online mlm businesses have a built in advantage when it comes to promoting their business offline. You already have a website and autoresponder in place to lead your prospect to. When you combine that fact along with the traditional capture methods of telephone and snail mail there is no reason any online business can’t use offline methods to build their businesses and sell their products and services. So check this out blog for business and marketing related all information.

A lot of online based network marketing businesses forget about offline advertising. I know I have. It is important to combine offline and online advertising together in your marketing campaign. This will give you to a more well rounded approach to promoting as well as attract potential prospects and customers you might not otherwise get.

In all your offline advertising you want to include your web site address, e-mail or autoresponder addresses, and your phone number and mailing address. This gives you the appearance of a real bonafide business.

Another thing is to start selling products for manufacturers who offer co-op advertising for promoting their products. You can read a little more about this technique in an article I wrote titled “Why Are You Wasting Free Advertising Money?” http://sites-plus.com/articles/article2.html

Finally you need to view offline marketing in MLM as a long term committment. I’ve seen businesses over and over run and ad not get the response they were looking for and quit.

This will not work offline. Or online for that matter. You need to establish a budget and stick to it. That doesn’t mean that you can’t change the ad copy if your response is marginal. It just means if you are going to run classified ads for example that you run them for a period of time and allow them to do their job.

Here are 10 offline marketing ideas. Use as many of these as possible to move your business forward.

-Classified Newspaper Ads– Place classified ads in newspapers. Local newspapers often have great advertising rates that you can take advantage of to promote your business. Here’s a great source for running classified ads. http://www.nationwideadvertising.com

-Put up flyers. They could be in computer stores, libraries, restaurants, car windshields, or anywhere you shop that allows flyers.

-Direct mail. A nice direct mail piece when done consistently over a period of time can bring tremendous exposure for your business. The biggest benefit of direct mail is it allows you to reach thousands of people at a bulk mail rate. You could not do this if you had to mail each piece individually.

-Buy time on cable T.V. It is surprisingly affordable and if you commit to a block of advertising you can develop Top Of Mind Awareness. TOMA is being there when they want or need you. If you are an affiliate or in an MLM consider doing group advertising and spreading the cost out over several of you. You can have leads routed into one phone number and divied out to all advertisers or have each ad display a different phone number.

-Pass out your CD-ROM or diskette business cards at special events. It could be at trade shows, seminars, fairs, etc.

-Get 250 free business cards here and leave them everywhere you go. http://www.vistaprint.com

-Hold a free offline class and teach people how to use their computer or how to use the internet. You could have your web site on display as an example.

-Give away promotional items such as free mouse pads. Put your advertising on the mouse pads and give them away at computer or internet events.

-Advertise in card decks. The card deck you advertise in should be targeted toward internet users.

You would also want to target your offline advertising to groups of people that will actually be interested in your MLM product or Network Marketing service. If you’re selling business books, you will want to market to business owners.

In conclusion, if you have a business that’s only based online using offline advertising to make money online is a great idea because so many people today go online to get information about products and services they are interested in, concerning MLM and Network Marketing.
