More rejection isn’t good for you.

New distributor: “But I contacted 100 people and only one person wanted to come to a presentation. I hate all this rejection!”

Sponsor: “Great! See what is happening? For every 99 times you are rejected, you get one person to come to a presentation. All you need to do is to talk to more people.”

Ouch.

If you are the distributor getting all this rejection, you’re tired of hearing these rah-rah motivational lessons:

* Every “No” brings you closer to a “Yes.”

* Pretend that you are getting paid for every “No. ”

* They’re not rejecting you, they are just rejecting the opportunity.

* Each “No” is just one person closer to a “Yes.”

Wouldn’t it be easier to learn new skills? New skills that will get more prospects to tell you “Yes”? Wouldn’t it be more fun to get 50 people to say “Yes” instead of only one person out of 100?

Instead of working harder, and getting more rejection, let’s learn new skills.

Ready to start now?

Some years ago I recorded an interview with telephone networking superstar, Tom Paredes. He shared his awesome contacting skills and his unique three-call technique. Tom seldom gets rejection because of the methods he uses.

Of course you can order these CDs at our website, but you can read the entire word-for-word transcript FREE.

This interview is quite long . . . really long. Too long for this newsletter.

But, you’ll love the details of exactly what to say and do.

Innocent questions that prompt prospects to make decisions – now!
by Tom Big Al Schreiter

I’m sitting across the prospects’ kitchen table. They are afraid to make a decision. They’re thinking:

“We don’t want to make a mistake.”
“What if we make the wrong decision?”
“Let’s think it over and delay any decision until we have to.”
“What if we fail?”
“Maybe we should just take our time thinking about this.”

And they’re thinking . . . and thinking . . . and thinking. Oh, if they would only make a decision, any decision, it would be wonderful. I could go home. They could get on with their lives.
But no. That would be too easy. The prospects insist on torturing themselves with indecision. They don’t realize that “not making a decision” is really making a decision to keep things just as they are.

For example, the train is pulling into the station. You don’t know if you should board the train or not. So you think, think, think . . . and soon, the train has already left the station. Your indecision actually made a decision:
You’re not going to be on that train. You and I know this. Our prospects don’t.

Our prospects don’t realize that when they delay making a decision about our business, they are effectively making a decision to keep their lives the same.
And keeping their lives the same is okay. It’s just that they should be consciously making that decision.

So here are a few questions that you can ask your prospects. They’re innocent, non-aggressive questions. These questions will help your prospects make a conscious decision on what is best for their lives.

1. What will happen if you don’t join our business?

Of course the answer is:
“Nothing.”

But you don’t answer that question. Let the prospects mentally answer that question for themselves. They’ll probably be thinking this:

“Life will be the same. Tomorrow will look just like today. We’re going to wake up early, commute to work, come back late, grab a quick meal, watch a few minutes of television and go to sleep. Yep, we’re going to get this routine over and over again – until we’re too old to work.”

Not a very pretty picture, is it? Now if the prospects choose to leave everything the same, if they choose to avoid your opportunity . . . that’s okay. They are making a decision. And that’s all we ask.

Try some of these to see if one fits your style.

2. If you don’t start your own business now, do you see yourself always working for someone else?

3. What do you think will happen next year if you decide not to make any changes this year?

4. Do you think your job routine (five days a week, two weeks of vacation every year) will ever change?

5. I see that you’re kind of stressing out about risking a change in your daily life. Why not just relax and enjoy your life as it is?

6. You don’t have to make a decision to start your own business tonight. Instead, you could simply make a decision to not start your own business and keep your present job routines.

7. You know, you might be thinking, “My daily routine isn’t so bad. Maybe I’ll keep living this way.” And that’s also a good decision. Do you think that might be best for you?

All of these questions remind our prospects that the pain of their problems won’t go away by postponing a decision.
So make it easy for your prospects.
Remind them to make a conscious decision about their futures.
And remember, this technique is rejection-free. We’re not attached to the outcome.
We’re not responsible for the decisions they make in their lives.
We’re only obligated to give our prospects the choices. The rest is up to them.

Because what you don’t know WILL hurt you!

Think marketing!
by Tom Big Al Schreiter

A little imagination can go a long way.

For example, let’s say you sold diet products and couldn’t afford advertising. Maybe all you could afford for your promotion was one month’s worth of diet products.

So what could you do?

How about a contest for LOSERS?

Announce that anyone can enter your contest, but they must have two qualifications.

#1. They must own a losing lottery ticket.
#2. They must want to lose weight.

Hold a drawing of the submitted losing lottery tickets and give away the one month’s supply of diet products to the winner.

You would get plenty of word-of-mouth advertising and publicity from such an innovative campaign.

Use your imagination to promote your business, products or services. It’s cheaper than paying for advertising.

So could you have a contest for the person who has the best reason to “lose” his or her boss?

A contest for the person who lost the most wrinkles?

A contest for the biggest reason to lose an alarm clock?

There is an old saying that you can’t win the race by following the crowd.
by Big Al Schreiter

If you want to stand out in the race for prospects, shouldn’t you also be doing something different?

I’m often asked:

“What unique prospecting method can I use to stand out from the crowd?”

Why not try using your personal newsletter instead of leaving behind a CD or DVD?

Why?

If you leave behind a CD or DVD, they are perceived as commercials for your business.

Your prospect reads or listens with sales resistance.

However, if your prospect receives a copy of your newsletter, it is not perceived as a commercial. Instead, the prospect feels that he is peeking inside your business. He can read:

* How your business is doing.
* How other people you sponsored are doing.
* Great product or service testimonials.
* Who are the top producers.
* New announcements from your company.
* How much your newest member earned.
* Personal stories why people joined your opportunity, etc.

Since your newsletter is not a commercial, you’ll get your prospect’s unbiased attention with your newsletter. So try sending your newsletter to your prospect list on a regular basis. Who knows? Maybe your newsletter will arrive on the day that your prospect decides to make a change in his life.

Maybe this idea will cause you to change how your newsletter looks. Good.

Or maybe this idea will motivate you to write your own newsletter. Good.

Most networkers think that they have to have a large downline before they write their first newsletter. But they are missing the point.

If you use your newsletter as a prospecting tool, you’ll want to write your own newsletter now.

Bob & Anna Bassett traveled thousands of miles and even walked on fire. Their feet got warmer, but their check stayed cold.

They worked five long years in a “sponsor monster” money-swap company with a pay plan so poor they ended up with a re-mortgaged house, maxed-out credit cards and a bad case of the “What’s Wrong With Me’s?”. Sound familiar?

In 2006, they read “Success In 10 Steps.” Their business turned around immediately.

Bob & Anna Bassett
MLM Success Story

Ontario – We started our network marketing career in 1999. Over the next seven years, we made just about every mistake possible!

We worked five long years in a “sponsor monster” money swap company with a pay plan so poor that we ended up with a remortgaged house, maxed out credit cards and a bad case of the “What’s Wrong With Me’s?”.

We spent thousands of dollars buying useless leads and even bought ourselves twice!

We travelled thousands of miles and even walked on fire! Our feet got warmer but our check stayed the same.

We stumbled into an illegal pyramid which cost us thousands more. We tried a Ponzi scheme before we knew what the word meant. Ten thousand more went to a mentoring program scam which taught us how to earn $21 split three ways!

The flags were all there, but they weren’t red enough.

In 2006, we read Success in Ten Steps and started to pay serious attention to the Mentoring For Free system.

Our business turned around 180 degrees immediately.

We’ve learned

1. How to spot personalities and build an instant relationship with them
2. How to evaluate MLM compensation plans and contracts written by company lawyers
3. Most of all – the 5 criteria you must evaluate to decide whether a company has good profit potential or not

It’s a sad fact that well over 95% of networkers are failing, but as Michael says, “It’s not your fault!”

If you’d like to find the support you need for the success you deserve, join us at Mentoring For Free.

You’ll be amazed at how just a few hours of free training will open your eyes and help you avoid years of failure and frustration!

Tony and Melissa Casteel MLM Success Story

If you are not having fun, then you are not doing network marketing right! We love network marketing and what it offers! People ask us, “What is the key to success?” The answer is simple:

“FINISH!”

It’s not WHAT happens to you but HOW you react to it that matters. -Epictetus

We were married in 1994. Network marketing has been a big part of our lives since then. We have endured losses and thrilled in our success. Success is a lot more fun.

Some time back, we joined a financial education company. How ironic … the financial education company went belly-up due to poor management. (If we had known then what we know now, life would have been far different.) We built to the top level ever reached in this company and helped one of our frontline leaders build to the same level. Life was great! We lived in our dream home in a gated community on 640 acres. We had deer and turkey in our back yard. We had horses, 4 wheelers and all the toys. We drove new vehicles paid for by our company.

We spent summers on the lake on our houseboat with a ski boat and SeaDoos. We built our business from the lake. We had finally reached our dreams, it was possible!

For 4 years we worked from home together. Life was great – together we would drop our son off at school, go to breakfast or workout, talk to people and just do what we needed/wanted to do on our terms. Best boss we ever had!

Then, our company went belly-up, leaving us high and dry. We lost it all…ALL! We were devastated.

Mentoring For Free was then presented to us and everything changed. Reading SUCCESS IN 10 STEPS changed our outlook, our thinking, and our lives! We had hope – we were given directions on how to do mlm right! We learned how to read our mlm contract and how to understand our policies and procedures.

Do you hear that? That is the sound of stomachs churning … churning at the mention of:

1. Make your list of 100 people
2. It takes 100 “No”s to get one Yes.
3. Throw them up against the wall and see who sticks.

AAAAHHHH! STOP! We had enough!

Thank goodness for Mentoring For Free. What a revolutionary approach … let’s EDUCATE and HELP instead of bullying folks!

We spent too many years in “old school” network marketing, only to have it all crumble. Now we understand why, and we know what really works. Everyone claims to have a “proven” system. Frankly, it’s exciting to have a true workable system. The difference? We’ve seen Mentoring For Free work. This system makes sense, and it builds for the long term … not just the here-today-gone-with-the-next-big-promise tomorrow. This IS solid business building.

You always have choices. You can go on the internet and get some tips on how to get through your day at the job you hate. You can keep plugging away with that “old school” marketing approach and remain frustrated. Or you can have fun building a life in network marketing with a user friendly system. Remember, NETWORK MARKETING IS A BLAST. You owe it to yourself to join the party!

I won’t mention the name of the country – but it was poor.

The average monthly income was only $300 a month. So my distributor was complaining:

“It is impossible to build a business here. Nobody can afford the products.”

Well, my distributor was just a bit irritated because we had been standing in line at the restaurant for over 45 minutes. He was hungry and cranky.

I replied,

“So the people here can’t afford our products, eh?

“Look at those young people. The ones without jobs. They are wearing some nice designer clothes. I bet they really got excited about how the designer companies advertised to them and they felt if they wore their designer clothes, people would think they are special.

“Oh look, these unemployed young people have cell phones. They are making expensive cell-phone-to-cell- phone calls to chat with their other poor friends. I bet they have the best cell phone plans to go with their iPhones.

“I wondered how much these people paid for valet parking? You know, gas is so expensive here, I hope they had enough money to tip the valet parking attendant. And you know what else? They are driving nice cars.

“Now, I know these people are unemployed because they are here, they are not at work today. I bet they have plenty of time on their hands. Hopefully they have a big screen television at home to enjoy their cable television channels.

“I think I saw some of these same people buying lottery tickets earlier. Do you also remember seeing some of them in line?

“But what really bothers me is that all of these unemployed people are drinking expensive beers, smoking expensive cigarettes, and sitting at this nice restaurant, while we are standing in line, waiting to get a seat.

“The economy must be really bad here. So many people out of work that the lines at this restaurant are untolerable.” My irritated distributor turned to me and said,

“Just shut up.”

But I couldn’t.

I just had to poke a little more.

I said,

“Do you know what is really happening?

“The cigarette company, the beer company, the designer clothes company, the restaurant, the car company, the cell phone company, and the cable television company all said better things than we did. They got their money first.

“We have to learn to say better things so that we can compete.

“We can’t just show them a catalog or brochure and expect them to buy. Our competition learned to say and do better things. We have to catch up. Standing in line and complaining isn’t going to fix our problem.” And that’s how the story goes.

In rich countries, in poor countries. The story is the same.

The salesmen that say and do better things get the prospects’ money.

So here is a question to ask yourself:

“How good are the things you say to prospects?”

Are the things you say good enough to get you into second place? That only means you got close, but not the sale.

We have to learn to compete with the professional advertisers and marketers of the world. We can’t be amateurs and hope for success.

But now for some good news.

We have an unfair advantage.

While our competition can only put up signs and run radio and television commercials, we actually get to have a “live” conversation, one-on-one with our prospect. What a remarkable advantage we have.

So let’s take advantage of this unfair advantage. Let’s not just hand them a brochure. Let’s say exciting, intriguing, mind-stimulating things and become first-place winners for our prospects’ spendable money.

Let’s study sound bites, word pictures, and other winning ways to interest and excite our prospects for the great things we have to offer.

How do you get people to join your opportunity? Do you tell them about how great your company is, or how well the #1 distributor is doing or how your product is the best thing since sliced bread?

I get emails every single day from a distributor of a well known wellness company. He is trying to convince me that his product is the absolute best on the planet.
It does not matter that I’ve made it clear that I’m very happy with the company I’m with and I’m very happy with the products I’m currently using. To him it does not matter that I’m NOT LOOKING!!!!

Every email sounds about the same:

”Our product is the absolute best in the industry! You could save $600 per year if you replace the product you are currently using with ours! Our company is the best, there is no question about it!”
It goes on and on, same email same sells pitch.

Now, if this person would put more time into researching that people don’t join companies they join YOU, he would have much more success in getting his point across.

Creating relationships is what’s working in network marketing because people are people, people are not numbers!
There are plenty of good companies out there and plenty of good products otherwise those companies would not be in business 5 years later.
Coming across with the repetitive ”MY company and MY product are the absolute best”  destroys your credibility and pushes people away.

And let’s not forget that the company and product are just part of the picture. There are other very important things to consider:
Compensation plan that pays the part timer and the contract between You – the distributor – and the company you represent.

But…YOU are the most important part. Everything else comes second.
There was a poll conducted by Tom Big Al Schreiter while traveling the world training network marketers.
It asked a simple question: What is most important to you when considering joining a business venture?
The answer might surprise you : ”WHO did the presentation” was the most important factor.
That factor came before the company, products and compensation plan.

So lead with YOU, create relationships and try to truly help someone without an agenda.
Say to yourself : I’ll make a new friend today instead of ” I’m going to get him/her in my business”

Stop sharing your opportunity with anything with a pulse. That’s not a way to conduct a business.

Doing it that way screams loud the word ”Amateur!!!!” 

A business relationship should be a life long relationship.
I’ve learned from one of my mentors that you should not build a business with someone that you don’t want to be on a month long cruise with.

So here is to you -  ”best opportunity best product on the planet” – person behind the email sells pitch of the day:
As Forest Gump say: ”That’s all I have to say about that!”

Effective prospecting by sharing your ”2 Minutes Story”
by Tom ”Big Al” Schreiter

To get an appointment for an instant presentation with
a prospect, simply say this:

“I got a good story. Takes about two minutes.
Might make you a lot of money, might not.
Want to hear it?”

Almost 100% of the people you talk to will want to hear
your two-minute story. I love this sentence, and it has
made me a fortune.

Why does this sentence work?

1. Everyone wants to hear a good story.

2. If it is only two minutes, it is safe
for them to listen to the story.

So what do you do next?

Well, just give them your “One-Minute Presentation” -
and then if they are interested, you can talk longer.

If you don’t have a good “One-Minute Presentation” -
you can get the no-cost e-course on exactly how to do
it at:

http://www.fortunenow.com/public/141.cfm

So try using:

“I got a good story. Takes about two minutes.
Might make you a lot of money, might not.
Want to hear it?”

And watch your prospects’ eyes light up while they lean
forward, eagerly awaiting your story.
