MLM Lead Generation

There’s a lot of freakin’ talk lately about attraction marketing, funded proposals, and the proper MLM Lead Generation you should be taking advantage of.

Well, all this is fantastic and you should pay attention to those but what do you do once you have people in your downline?

How do you manage them?

How do you train them?

How do you keep them working the biz?

Let’s dive right in and shed some light on what’s not talked about too much.

Number one, first thing, you better be attracting and sponsoring “qualified” individuals.

If you’re making the mistake of sponsoring broke minded, negative, complaining little whiners, change your ways IMMEDIATELY.

This will not give you the long term results you’re looking for and create stability.

Sure, you’ll make some quick money but this isn’t sales, we’re not dealing cars and cellphones.

This is network marketing.

You need to know and teach the proper ways of generating leads but you also need to teach the proper skills on what to say and do with those leads.

There’s many great resources out there and I suggest you invest into them right away.

Once you have qualified individuals in your business, you’re going to have to help them get their first few people.

Constantly invest in your education and get ahold of what’s working and APPLY it to your business.

This will make you a better leader and coach for your downline. You’ll be able to help them each step of the way and on the path to serious money.

They’ll have questions about how to do this and that so you’ll need to answer them and guide them in the proper direction.

You do that by investing in your education and sharing it with your team members.

The 3 big things you should be focused on teaching your downline is lead generation, mindset, and what to say and do.

Now, the bigger your downline grows, the harder it can be to maintain interaction with all your team members.

This is why you want to put some sort of system in place that keeps track of who you called, what you both accomplished on that call, and when you should call them next.

CRM software can get a little pricey which is why you can just use a sophisticated free calender application such as Google calendar, Mozilla Sunbird, or iCalendar Lite.

I personally would go with one of the latter two.

It’s best to keep in touch with your frontline members every couple days but it can be once a week depending on how well you have trained them, what they are applying, and the results they’re getting.

Always make sure to let them know that they can call you anytime if they need help with something.

You want to be looking at your business as a system and each member in your downline a part of that crucial system.

If one thing goes wrong, it disrupts the flow of the system and can result in lost money or aggravated, once a part of members that had trouble with online lead generation, and couldn’t get the support they needed, etc…

That’s why you want a structured team environment where everyone is able to communicate effectively and where people are not just passionate about what they do but give before want.

This creates more opportunities for everyone and keeps the whole shindig running as efficiently as possible.

Someone needs help, they can call up one of several people that have the answers to help them out.

This is what it takes to build a long term, stable business and as you can see it really doesn’t take a ton of brain power to execute.

It just takes some now how and when you generate leads, they get put through this process once and IF they are qualified to do business with and join.

Wash, rinse, repeat.

Recruiting prospects into your network marketing business is easier said than done for most network marketers. Most people who start their MLM business are told by their uplines to just share the plan. They are told to make a list of everyone they know and begin by calling everyone on their list and either inviting them out to a business overview or to a conference call with their sponsor.

It doesn’t take long before the new recruit is asking themselves what do I do when I run out of people to talk to on my list?

This is the point where most sponsors will tell them to make sure to ask their list for referrals or to get creative and talk to anybody and everybody within 3 ft. of them.

After doing this for a while and facing massive rejection most quit, however a few will persevere.

The patient network marketer reluctantly turns to buying into lead programs and cold calling massive amounts of people all in the hopes of “sharing the plan” with opportunity seekers.

The major problem they have now is they just turned into another telemarketer and have destroyed the duplication factor in their business. You see, they might learn to get good at cold calling but it is almost impossible to duplicate this skill in their organization.

You have to give them credit for making it this far in their business though. By now they have persevered, faced massive rejection, and have grown mentally tough.

They have worked hard for months but they still don’t see any success in their downlines or in their bank accounts. They look around at their core leaders who are ‘supposedly’ having all this success and they ask themselves what is it that they are doing differently than me?

The missing ingredient for recruiting endless prospects online or offline are two major components. The first thing that all core leaders have is PROFESSIONALISM, next is a LEAD GENERATION SYSTEM.

All successful leaders display professionalism in their business. They know their company and products inside and out. They have a servant’s heart and know how to talk to people. They also know how to MOTIVATE people to take action.

Because of this people are attracted to them and join their team. Keep this in mind… People join professionals in this business. You have to spend the majority of your time early on in your business working on yourself. You can’t shortcut this, it is a must!!

Next, all successful leaders have a lead generation system. They don’t waste time talking to uninterested people. Their time is valuable and they know this. They see themselves as a valuable professional whereby people have to earn their time.

They know how to use technologies like the Internet, social networking, video marketing, article marketing, website marketing, etc. to attract endless amount of interested prospects to them. They also know how to enhance their business by creating multiple streams of income.

So in closing, the key is to develop your own professionalism and create value in the lives of your prospects and customers. Next, learn how to generate your own leads more effectively using technology. This will save you time and will create a state of lead abundance.
