The most common MLM recruiting strategy that sponsors give the their new distributors is to make a list of 100 friends and family. Then invite them to a home meeting to give a business presentation.
And everyone hates doing it.
For those that have done this, they have usually done it wrong. And it’s not your fault if you have. The blame goes back up your upline for not showing you the right way,,, if they even know how to do it the right way.
Anyone that has used this method could share a story about friends not returning phone calls anymore and awkward moments around the family during the holidays. Everyone is on alert for a sales pitch.
In this industry it is necessary to at some point tap into your list of family and friends. It’s better to do it sooner than later. Doing it sooner is better than later because getting started in online marketing takes longer than getting started with your friends and family. Contacting those you already know can be done in 1 minute.
What do you do if you already went through your list of who you know?
You didn’t want to do it the first time, (some of you may have done it a 2nd time) so you may be thinking it’s out of the question to approach them again.
Wrong. You can.
First you have to APOLOGIZE. And do it sincerely. Don’t just say the words “I’m sorry”. Acknowledge that got them involved in something that just wasn’t that great of an opportunity and then use the words “I apologize”. It carries more meaning.
It’s ok to admit to them that you were naïve, foolish, ignorant or whatever and that you are not with that company anymore and that you have learned from your mistake.
If they don’t throw you out of their house or hang up before you finish, it’s ok to ask them if they are open to the idea of making more money. If they say no then leave it at that and tell them that you won’t bother them again.
Anyone that has already talked to their list of friends and family before actually have an advantage over those who haven’t. The initial fear has already been conquered.
Still terrified of approaching your friends and family. Seek an alternative with this simple system.
