Proper Response to a Network Marketing Prospect

One of the biggest fears for network marketing distributors is the fear of not knowing what to say when network marketing prospects ask certain questions. If this is a concern for you, it doesn't need to be. If you are relatively new to the industry or relatively new to your specific business opportunity, you should primarily be leveraging the talents of your up line organization and leadership to assist you in this process.

For example, whenever I get a prospect on the phone that has looked at some information one of the things that I like to do is to do a three way call. I will talk about this topic exclusively later this week, but getting a prospect on the phone with your up line or another experienced leader will eliminate most of the challenges you get when determining the proper response. This is because your leaders will already know how to properly respond.

However, if you ARE the leader or an up and coming leader, you will need to learn the proper responses when network marketing prospects ask certain questions and make certain responses.

Setting Realistic Expectation in Your MLM Business

One of the reasons why I believe so many people fail in the MLM business is because of unrealistic expectations that are set. To be frank, we as an industry cause a lot of these problems to begin with. 

In this business of direct sales/network marketing, many people invest an enormous amount of effort and time in bringing in a new business partner.  But without setting the proper expectations and helping them get quick results (earn their ROI month one, achieve a company “fast start” bonus or goal, and get their first customer and partner), many new people leave this business before they even get started.

This Is Not “Get Rich Quick”

We need to set realistic expectations in our MLM business to succeed. The bottom line is most people aren't going to earn 1,000,000 Pesos or $20,000 a year. What's great about MLM is that everyone has an open opportunity to earn that type of income or more.

It doesn't matter what your education is, what connections and relationships you have, as long as you meet the requirements for earning this type of money in the compensation plan you can earn this type of income in MLM.
