Some will build businesses faster than others, but never go by what someone else has done concentrate on what you will do. You could be the next big thing. No one knows what God will make of a man or what He will do by him.
When attracting people to your business you must ask yourself this question, who am I? It doesn't matter whether you are prospecting through a social website, blogging, ads, flyers, on the phone, or face to face it will always come back to that question. People will want to know who you are more than about your business.
Are you a leader? People are always looking for the person who offers more value. Are you skilled and knowledgeable in the industry you're in? Can you offer the help your prospect will need to build their business? Prospects will be looking for that person who can teach them the skills that they need.
Remember you are marketing you. People will be attracted to you before they are attracted to your business. Prospects will want to know that you can lead and guide them. Keep the focus on you not your business.
When prospecting over the phone even though they can't see you your voice will tell them a lot. Does your voice have volume, do you sound confident, and are you excited about what you're doing. Always smile it will come through even though they can't see it.
When prospecting face to face you need to have a level of fitness and health about you a level of vitality and positive energy about yourself. You want to be dressed sharp not sloppy. Be comfortable in your own skin; be in charge of your world, smile, and have fun.
Never act needy what you have to offer is of high value. Show that you are happy where you are in life and convey a sense of abundance. Don't react to other people's emotions and don't try to impress them. The person trying to impress is always perceive as the person with lower value or status. Know that you are a leader and you will get attention naturally without even trying.
What is your story? You're essentially selling yourself in your story. You want to position yourself as the leader and expert your prospects want to work with. You have two goals: to be viewed as an authority, and have them relate to you and trust you. Create an atmosphere of experience.
Here is a quick 6 step formula to develop yourself and your story.
1.On your website, social website, etc? you want to have lots of pictures. Show that you are a real person having fun and loving life.
2.Describe your background, give proof you are a real person. Intrigue them, tell them about your hobbies and so forth.
3.Establish a problem, a crisis in your life. What was your life like before you started your business. Tell how you found the business. Get the people to feel the emotion you felt. Find ways to connect with them.
4.Then, you give a solution. Things changed when I found my home business (don't mention the company name). Sell it with emotion, talk about living your dreams.
5.Call to action. Get them to you, to your website, to call you, etc?
6.Describe who you want to work with. Say, before you call me this is who I want to work with. Let them know exactly what you want. You don't want someone looking for a job. Let them know you can only work with 5 people a week who know what they want and are willing to put the time in. This puts you on a higher pedestal.
You can create your own website if you have the skills. Most web companies have templates that make it easy for you.
You can use social networking sites like Direct Matches to create your profiles. The key is to sell you with confidence.
In conclusion, when attracting people to your business remember that you are selling YOURSELF and nothing else. Bond with your prospect as a person first and only then can you continue to and show them the business information.
If you've ever heard of Network Marketing, you've probably heard it said that it is essentially a people's business. Some have also labelled it a people's franchise because of the similarities between the business models of network marketing and franchising. Advocates of the industry name it as the ultimate people's business and say there is nothing quite like it.
Of course people that are in network marketing will immediately respond positively to this whereas those that are not familiar with the industry, or have had some bad experiences might be strongly opposed to this idea. One of the unique characteristics of this type of business is that every individual distributor is in business for themselves but never by themselves. They will always be part of a larger organization and the compensation models are designed in such a way that every person can count on some form of support from their upline.
It is no secret that fortunes can be made in this type of business and many have done just that. Of course this is not the majority of network marketers, but every individual distributor does have the same chances. Success or failure in network marketing is not dictated by politics, race, age, background or gender, but always by results. In that respect it is probably also the fairest business model in the world.
For many people however the true value of their home based business is not directly in the financial return. The lessons a person can learn while building his or her own network marketing business are truly priceless. Many people are totally transformed through the personal growth they experience as a direct result of their challenges in their MLM businesses. It forced them to get out of their comfort zones, grow, and in many cases become a better person.
So what is so unique about network marketing in this respect? Doesn't every entrepreneur have to deal with challenges? The answer of course is: Yes, they do. And they also experience personal growth as a result from this. However there is a significant difference.
Most entrepreneurs are self made and many of them learned their trade largely outside of formal education. Either they were taught by a family member, a mentor or perhaps they learned everything the hard way: by trial and error. Very rarely will you find an entrepreneur that has an extensive library of books and tapes on personal development.
Most businesspeople don't attend seminars and motivational trainings. They think it's all a bunch of hype. While in some cases this can be true, there are many trainings and seminars that teach the principles of success better than any textbook found in business schools.
One of the great things about network marketing is that this type of education is built into the training systems of all good companies. There is no business on the face of the earth that places such a strong and direct emphasis on the importance of personal development as the network marketing industry.
Many companies might argue that they spend a great deal of their budget on education; training employees and as such assisting them in personal development but in most cases what they are actually talking about is personnel development. Although the words are almost identical, their meanings are vastly different.
Network marketing is all about building people. It is probably the best school on the planet if you want to learn about what it takes to be successful in life and you don't need rich parents or some kind of scholarship to enroll.
