1 Tip To Find Prospects For Your Network Marketing Business

Do you ever wonder how the people who get the big checks in your MLM company do it? What do they know that you don't know?

They have the same compensation plan as you have. They go to the same opportunity meetings. They often use the same brochures and websites. Yet they are getting huge bonus checks and you aren't. Why is that?

I wondered the same thing. And I didn't figure it out until I got some training from Tom “Big Al” Schreiter. He said that the only difference is that the people who get the big checks have skills. They know what to say and do to get people to respond to their opportunity.

Skills?! Skills in network marketing? No one told me that I needed skills to make money in network marketing. I thought that I could build this business in my spare time.

Well, I’ve discovered that that’s the problem. Network marketing is like any profession and it takes skills to become successful and see the results I want.

Tom Schreiter emphasizes that using ice breakers are the key to finding prospects for your MLM business. Your ice breakers must be 100% rejection free. You can’t embarrass others and they must have a good chance for success.

So what do you say to find prospects? Imagine that you are at work talking to a colleague on your coffee break. She’s complaining about not having enough money. You turn to her and say “Joanne, I just found out how to get an extra pay cheque every week. If you’d ever like to know how, I’d be glad to tell you. Meanwhile, have another donut.”

Now you may be thinking, that sounds great, but I’m a mother at home with children. What can I say to other mothers? Well, let’s modify this statement. Imagine that you’re at the park with your kids. You turn to your friend, another mother and say “Jennifer, I just found out how we can stay at home with the children and get a full time pay cheque. If you’d ever like to know how, I’d be glad to tell you. Meanwhile, let’s go play with our kids.”

In both examples, the key phrase is “I just found out.” It stops prospects dead in their tracks and they totally focus on what you are saying. If they’re interested in your opportunity they’ll ask for more information. If not, you continue the friendship. There is no pressure.

Tom Schreiter says he only gives business presentations to people who want to know more about the business. He uses ice breakers to find out who is looking for opportunities. Then he takes the volunteers.

Imagine never having to make the “dreaded list of family and friends” to call about your business opportunity. Imagine only talking to people about your business who ask you for information.

That’ll be awesome! You can build a hugely successful home based business using rejection free ice breakers. Have fun! Try these ice breakers on your friends and colleagues. After all, you have nothing to lose and the life of your dreams to gain

Network Marketing Business - Hello all, Recently, I had join a Network Marketing Business on a part-time basis. Does anyone here who has some knowledge on this type of business? I want to learn as fast as I can from all the gurus here
Why do people hate Network Marketing / MLM? - I've been looking at a number of different opportunities and end up meeting a lot of Network Marketing / Multi-Level Marketing people. Some of the offers look interesting but everyone I talk to about it says to avoid these guys like the plague - what's the deal? Why do people hate network marketers and MLM people so much? Is it not legit?
Re: MLM Marketing, youtube, and buzzirk mobile. - I have experience with MLM too. My initial reaction to the business was "snake-oil salesman" but once I got to understand the "overall business model" I am now an advocate to it. MLM (Multi-Level Marketing) is also known as Network Marketing. I realized an MLM business is no different than any other business. One needs to focus on both words "Network" and "Marketing" and give both equal respect. Some people focus heavily on the Networking part but forget "Marketing". I've started to use Building on a Budget and Magnetic Sponsoring concepts in my NM business and have found that people don't get involved so much because of the product but more because of what you bring to the table as far as marketing systems and support. I have both products listed in my signature. you don't have to buy it as the link to the free videos itself provides you a good understanding of what is required to position yourself as my above paragraph. If you do plan on purchasing it I can tell you that the measly $40 will open your eyes BUT your upline will not be too happy (atleast in the short term) beacuse the system is not duplicateable. I wrote this post as a polar post to Bulmer's reply as I have exhausted the friends and family networking and realized i never really focused on marketing. My leads now are more qualified and open to hearing about my opportunity than the other way around. my 2 cents if you plan on growing an MLM or Networking Marketing business.
10 best franchises to get involved - My advice is: 1) Go to the library and start reading business books (accounting, finance, etc.) 2) Go to your local community college and enroll in night classes 3) Join the local Chamber of Commerce 4) Network / Network / Network -- through the above sources. Once you have spent two years doing the above, then look for a 55 - 60 year old business person that is looking to reduce their time in the business. Then you can work on a sweetheart financing option.
Re: answer this question - This is a good topic. I haven't done anything, yet, to seriously damage my business. I did shift gear though. It was the best decision I ever made. For me, affiliate marketing was not working. Making the switch to Network Marketing made all the difference.
