Hey Gang~~ This is another really easy thing to do. It will only take you a few minutes to complete and can mean the difference whether or not someone sticks in your organization. When I shot this I had created checks for no less than 5 people who were really close. I LOVE getting your comments and thoughts, so let me have em!

You know, building a business in network marketing really boils down to one thing. Being a leader. I’ve known so many hard core sales people who get into our profession and hit the road running, signing up prospect after prospect and making a few bucks along the way. But that’s all they do. Once that new person has their start up kit and product, they are left hanging out there on their own. That’s why I prefer the term “relationship marketing.” Your job as a team leader really begins after you bring someone into your organization.
I’ve always found great value in learning from the real leaders of our industry. Heck, just being around them gives me a charge of enthusiasm for our profession that’s hard to get from a book or tape. And actually watching how they work is even more fascinating.
One of the top leaders in our field and one of my mentors and dear friends, John DeHart, puts it best when he simply says, “Monkey See, Monkey Do.” He’s right, you know. You can lecture, coach and write books and blogs all you want. But it’s what you DO that your team sees and copies. You want your team to commit to making at least five calls a day? Then you’d better be making at least five yourself. Think they won’t know if you do or don’t? Think again, my friend. They know. They always know.
People look for leaders that can help them achieve what the leader has already achieved. If someone new to your business is looking to make, say, a couple of hundred bucks a month and that’s what you’re making, well, congratulations. However, if that new eager person is looking to quit their job and bring in a healthy six-figure income and you’re still at a couple of hundred a month…see the problem? Now, don’t think you have to one-up everyone in your organization. There are those blessed times when someone you brought in turns out to be a dynamo and leaps to the top of their game. But you do have to be in the running, out there doing the relationship building and setting a good example of how others can make their dreams come true.
I personally never give you advice that I haven’t already tried and found effective. As the head monkey in my own organization, it’s my duty and my privilege. You should think of yourself the same way. Would you want to be your sponsor? Would you follow your leadership? Would you get excited just to have a conversation with you?
Hey Gang~~ Just wanted to give you a quick tip on to support you in your networking and building a business. This is something I have implemented for years now and can easily prove how effective it is just by the size of my data base of friends. Ya know, if you can just continue to meet new people you never know who might show up in your circle of influence. Enjoy and now go give someone an AWESOME day!
Hey gang! So how many times has this happened to you? You give someone an out-of-the-ballpark presentation about your product or network marketing opportunity and at the end, just when you’re ready to sign them up and rush home to celebrate, they hit you with those four little words we all dread, “I don’t have the money.” ARGH!
As my good friend Mark Hoverson puts it, if someone tells you they don’t have the money, they you have given them a bad offer. Simple as that. I never take “I don’t have the money” as an objection. I see it as I’ve not lightened the money load. Mark uses a Bentley as a great example. If someone drove a Bentley into a convention, a brand new one worth about $350,000, and said they wanted to sell it for $10,000, how many people do you think would not be able to figure out how to get their hands on 10K and quick? Of course the flip side of that is if someone drove in a banged up 1973 Chevy Vega and wanted to sell it for $100,000. Probably not many takers, don’t you think?
Are you offering a Bentley or a Vega? You know, your offer is like a teeter-totter. There’s the money on the one side and the content you’re offering on the other. Make the content side heavier and the money side lightens.
If someone says they don’t have the money, why not sweeten the pot and offer them a cash bonus from your own pocket for every referral? Now, I’m not saying go against the rules of your company, but there are ways to make your offer more valuable. For instance, if your prospect says they don’t have the time to learn all there is to know about your opportunity, then offer to come and train them in person…for free. That should probably be part of every offer you make anyway. Training is so important, but we’ll leave that for another post.
“I have no money” is a great opportunity for you to learn where you’ve mis-stepped. Maybe they don’t believe in the company. Maybe, just maybe, they don’t believe in you. Find out what their objections really are and overcome them. Be the leader they’re looking for, sweeten the pot, and grow your business like crazy!
Make ‘em an offer they can’t refuse, and you’ll be helping your prospect and yourself.
