Have you ever had someone ask you how to do something and you had the answer? You know the kind of answer that you give that gets you excited that they ask and you share some super ninja insider tips for them to get started. They pretend they are absorbing everything you say, they are taking notes, nodding their head in agreement that they understand. You even go one step farther and agree to help them if they need further help…. free.
A few weeks go by and you haven’t heard back from them and you sneak over in your tip toe ninja shoes to their facebook page and look around. Then you look in their facebook group and you are horrified and gasp. You guessed it. Nothing you shared was in place and the old habits were still going on. You feel that pit in your stomach wondering why they had the best tips you could give and they still had not put them in place for big changes for them and their team.

The ole saying, “You can take a horse to water but you can’t make him drink.” Any horse owner knows this. Actually I can’t tell you how many times my horse gave me a bath instead of getting a drink pawing and playing in the water. He loved it.
However, if you salt his food… he gets thirsty.
I had several of my coaching students in mind when I wrote the book: MLM Blueprint: Secrets to Building Your Network Marketing Empire! I seriously spilled my guts. I wanted to provide a guide on how I used my blog and social media to build my business. I am always adding something to my business marketing to help grow my reach.
In order for my team to be able to duplicate what I have done – I have to show them the steps I took. This complete guide told my whole story.
Here are some tips you can use today:
– Create and maintain a list that you can follow up with people you meet. If you do not follow up truly working to hard.
– Study, listen and watch people they will tell you what they need and if what you have to offer will work for that person.
– DO NOT pre-judge a new prospect. You do not know their finance or if they will or will not be interested. Your job is to expose what you have to offer in a way they will ask for more details.
– Treat your business opportunity like you would any career. Get up every day ready to go to work and get results.
– Work at least part time 10-20 hours a week. Sometimes only get paid sometime.
– Present the money side of your opportunity. People like getting products paid for and they really like money.
– Don’t try to pull a limp rope. ONLY work with the willing – someone who is ready to work, not those that promise they are gonna work.
– The company you are with will pay you a nice sum of money to introduce people to the company.
– When someone says no – what they mean is not right now.
– Don’t beg people to join you. Beggars and whiners are not attractive.
– Use your story. You have one that brought you to the company. Tell it.
– Take the time to get to know people before you start trying to show them your opportunity. Doing it backwards is a huge turn off.
– Some will, Some won’t, NEXT!
– Be mindful of “placing people” under people. No one likes being given up for adoption.
– There are 4 ACES in every deck of cards. Odd as it is there are 4 workers in every 52 that you sponsor.
– Use your products. Nuff said.
– Do you look like the opportunity is working for you? Are you dressed for the part? Are you well groomed? Is your life a wreck trying to sell happiness? People notice.
– Edify, edify edify! Sell your sponsor, your upline, and corporate leaders.
– Master the plan. Four who get Four who get Four – Leapfrog
Be your best business by bringing the best you to present. It matters.
