What will be a Good Way to Get Prospects?

I was asked "If I were to join and pursue MLM (Multi Level Marketing/Network Marketing) business, what will be a good way to find prospects?
Can I do it from my home as a home based business opportunity thing... any ideas would be appreciated.

(1) Create Hot List and Cold List
Any leader would suggest or reinforce the traditional way of making your hot list and cold list of people you come in contact with everyday or in your previous meetings.
Pro: These contacts who already know you makes it an ideal foundation for you to make a business proposal.
Con: If you are not careful or overly ambitious in your high pressure selling, you may lose a good contact or friend. Please make sure the mlm company you are starting with is not a fly by night business. This is rule of the thumb #1. Ninety-nine percent mlm businesses could not last from 6 months to 6 years. Many are either scam, quick rich schemes, or just head-hunting business.

(2) Advertize in local classifieds (offline or online).
Pro: You can get a pool of targetted prospects. You actually don't need to beg people to join you. They would come to you instead. make sure you are prepared to take incoming enquiries and a website to handle FAQs and online enquiries. A website easily provide 247 (24 hours) existence. Note: Start with free website or b log, in the beginning before you seriously start owning a domain name and maintaining a website.
There are many free online classifieds and you can save lots of money in advertizing cost.
Con: Almost nil. I can't see any negative effect using this method here except advertizing in newspapers or magazines can be costly.

(3) Referrals.
Get referrals from your already known contacts.
Pro: You can good quality (hot leads) recommended leads via trusted referrer. People (stranger) feel comfortable knowing that someone credible recommended them to you. It is especially effective if the referrer has satisfaction of using your products or services.
Con: Some may turn you down (expect it) due to too many business opportunities flooding (bugging them) their phone.

(4) Meet People in the Open.
Yes, you can actually meeting prospects in the public by setting up a promotional counter at astrategic area, i.e. exhibition, shopping mall, transit spots.
Pro: You can get direct exposure to potential / prospects. Make sure you are located at a high traffic area where people can see you.
Con: Can be time consuming and costly if investing in wrong location.

(5) Buy Leads
Pro: Quality leads
Con: Are they?

Well,You will never know until you try them all.
Working from home is not sufficient for you to get contacts.
You may feel disappointed to learn that there is no such thing as 100% automated network marketing due to human factor. Experienced leaders should honestly reveal to you the same reality or you will realize this fact in due course.

8 Tips on MLM Recruiting

MLM (multi-level) marketing or network marketing recruiting is the lifeblood of any mlm business. The old saying some will, some won't, so what, next...still applies when it comes to recruiting new distributors. But what if you could get a few more some will's every month. Could that have an effect on your business. Of course it could. Here's how.

We learn in sales and marketing that we were always taught that the real game in closing didn't start until you got an objection. That's true in the mlm network marketing business as well. To be a truly good, or even great recruiter, you need to get down to decision time and find out where your prospect stands. Here are 8 tips to help you become a better recruiter.

1. Right People. The very first thing you should do when trying to recruit people into your downline is find the right people. This will be your target market. The right person will be someone who is already interested in what you are offering. For example - say if you market a health beverage, the right person could be someone who wants to boost their immune system. Another example would be if you are in the weight loss industry, the right person could be someone who is looking to lose a few pounds to fit back into their clothes.

2. Irresistible Offer. This is another MLM recruiting tip. Having an irresistible offer will help you recruit people easily. Your offer should be able to grab the attention of the right person and make them want to know more about what you're offering.

3. How To Overcome Objections. Another tip on how to recruit people into your MLM business is to know how to overcome objections. You will get a lot of people giving you all sorts of reasons (excuses) why they can't join you. The most common objection is someone who says "I don't have the money to join" and the people who are skeptical.

To overcome the money objection, what you have to do is demonstrate leadership and allow the person to find a way to buy the products or services from you. 99% of the time, if someone want something bad enough, they'll buy it. Ensure them that they can get paid by sharing the products with other. And let them know that you have a system in place for them to use.

To overcome the skeptics objection, all you have to do is guarantee them that your products or services will help them. Your company should have a guarantee in place to help eliminate the objection. If they don't, you can offer your own guarantee.


4. Try and see your opportunity from your prospects viewpoint. Everyone is at a different point in their life and you need to understand how they view themselves to understand how they are viewing your opportunity. That all starts with asking questions about them.

5. Cultivate a relationship with your prospect. This may be done over a period of time and require you to recruit in stages and not all at once. Different people warm up differently. Kind of like eating an elephant one bite at a time. With some prospects you may need to slow down a little.

6. Be a better communicator. This is an acquired skill, but your ability to speak and listen at a level that your prospect understands will determine how many people you recruit. Putting on the best presentation in the world is worthless if they don't understand what you are saying.

7. Educate your prospect based on what they are saying to you and not everything you know. You may know your company better than anyone else in the world, but that does not mean your prospect wants to hear it all. Finding out their goals and their dreams will lead you to how much information you need to provide.

8. Lastly the fortune is in the follow up. How many times have you heard that? How many times do you do it? You deserve an answer and they deserve to make a decision. This comes down to closing the deal. Getting their decision allows both of you to get on the next prospect and doing that over and over is ultimately going to be the key to your success.

In summary, recruiting really comes down to getting a decision from your prospect. Getting from the beginning to the end is a process of educating and overcoming objections. Do that enough and you are going to make a lot of money as a top mlm network marketing recruiter.

Make Money through the Power of Duplication

SAY if given the OPPORTUNITY, the choice between $10,000 today, or a cent today that will double each day for one (1) month,
what would you choose?
Most people would naturally take the $10,000.

However, one cent doubled every day for a month becomes greater than one (1) million dollars!
Do you realize that?
That is why the TRUE POWER of Duplication in Network Marketing is so REAL and EFFECTIVE.

Like it or not, the whole market around us works through a network of distribution, from the factory, wholesale centers, distribution centers, retail shops, etc
The next time when you look at a computer, eat something, wacth a movie, go out shopping, LOOK AROUND YOU and be aware of all the products you SEE.
These things infront of us and around us are all results that came to us via a channel of distribution.
So, network marketing is a business like any other businesses out there.
The difference is ordinary consumers like you and I can make an income via an alternative "smart, low-cost, low risk" business called network marketing!

Everyone faces opportunities every day.
It's how we recognize and seize these opportunities and determine to convert it into successes in our very own lives!

Root Causes of MLM Failures

Most people join MLMs or Network Marketing companies without having a clear idea as to the exact reasons of joining and what to do next. '
Without a clear goal, plan or system in place, these people will most likely get confused, angry, disappointed, lose all interest and give up.
They will say it just doesn't work. It's a scam.

What went wrong?

They actually faced the following root causes:
1. They don't understand the true nature of MLMs and life style of MLMers.
2. They don't have a system in place to train new people
3. They fail to communicate the system.

Motivation Tips

Feeling down? Well, read the following. Great food for thought.



"In order to live a blessed life we have to learn how to be a blessing. You know, living just to fulfill one's own needs, one's own dreams, one's own goals and ambitions is a very boring and unfulfilling way to live our lives.

See, God is delighted when we live our life to be a blessing to others. That's when we get more blessings from God. Try to find at least one person to bless every single day. Isn't it an exciting, creative and blessed way to live? And it’s one of the keys to live a blessed life."

Our journey of life is about progress, not perfection.
It's not about doing one thing 100% better -
it's a matter of doing 100 things,
1% better each day.

Progress is evolutionary
not revolutionary,
and most days we measure our progress
in inches, not miles.

What matters most
is showing up for your life whether you feel like it or not.

Ask yourself,
"What two or three little things can I do today that would move me forward?" You'll be amazed at how much distance you can cover by taking it in increments.

The little things add up;
the inches turn to miles; and we string together our efforts like so many pearls. Before long, look what you have - a whole strand! Ah... beautiful.
