@Bobbie,

One key thing I learned at a conference last weekend was that no matter how great your product may be, no matter how amazing the compensation plan is, the “NO”s you get are because of one simple fact. It just isn’t the right time for that person.

Ken Dunn talked about this in his presentation to us last weekend. He said, every single person he’s introduced the business to has joined…they just don’t know it yet.

His point was that every person you talk to is going to be at a different stage in their life, and you shouldn’t be trying to “GET” them. You should be building a solid relationship. That just means you should be getting to know people and making friends and when they TRUST you, that’s when you can say “hey, I’ve got this business that I just love and I think you might be into it”.

Don’t expect everyone you meet to see the same thing you do. And every NO you get, brings you closer to a YES.

G’Day Tom,
Thats amaizing that you were able to send prospects to the competition and still convert them. I gives me alot of encouragement that I’m doing the right thing sending my prospects to the web site that I am. This is the first time I have bought leads and I am yet to convert them into my down line. I feel it is only a matter of time. Today is the day….
Love what you give to this industry
Regards
Stuart.

@Bobbie,

Just because you spent a ton of money for 50 leads that does not mean that the leads were any better than less expensive leads. Maybe you paid too much , perhaps not.

I know this is more Tom’s areas of expertise but if I were you I would buy 1,000 leads of any quality, go through those before you think paid leads don’t work. 50 leads is not even enough to get through a day of work, not even close most times. You are lucky you got to actually speak with 3 people if you did.

Purely numbers at first as you get better so does the ratio, but you can’t expect a whole lot of results with just 50 numbers to call. Call a thousand and see if you have different results, I bet you do.

Tom, I have bought a lot of training material and still have not sponsored a qualified recruit. I know that it is me and not the system, I love my company and the products, have a passion for what I am doing but am lost when it comes to talking with people. A little background, I started selling the product first and have made some money but have not replaced my income. When I can get in front of a group and do a presentation on the product I usually sell to half the crowd…but when it comes to recruiting I really stink…fumble…I feel that I am better in a meeting situation…but don’t know how to get people to a meeting…how do I contact recruits…where do I get them? I spent $400.00 for 50 leads and didn’t enroll one person…and I called each lead a minimum of 3 times….I know if I could recruit I would be able to make a living instead of an occasional sale…

Do you teach not only how to recruit but where to recruit and how to talk to people that you meet everyday…that is huge for me..?

Thanks Tom for reminding us what really matters. I often fall into the pit of choosing the “perfect message” to send prospects to. Thanks a lot, God bless.

Tom,

That is really hilarious that you were able to send them to another companies presentation and enroll them into your company… love it!
