Network Marketing Tips: November 19, 2022
“Who brought this jerk to dinner?”
He didn’t want to listen. Selfish jerk.?
My distributor’s guest loved to talk. Having a quick meal with us before the opportunity meeting seemed like a good idea. No. It was a terrible idea.
This self-centered jerk couldn’t shut up. He even talked while shoveling food in his mouth. Now, there are blue personalities who love to talk. But this was the extreme. I envisioned this person talking continuously in his sleep.
After our quick meal, the three of us walked to the opportunity meeting. I nudged my distributor and said, “Watch this.”
When his guest interrupted his non-stop verbal diarrhea to take a breath, I quickly said, “You have to join now to qualify for next month’s trip. We will have so much fun.” (I know, too easy. I underlined the words.)
The guest quickly replied,?
“Yes. This will be great. We will all go together. I don’t know anything about the business yet, but I will love it. I bet I can get my friends to come and qualify also. Don’t worry about my job, I will just call in sick so I can go on the trip. Blah, blah, blah.”
Closed. Done. New, active distributor. Can’t wait to start talking to everyone he knows.
Of course, this guest was a blue personality.
Take this 4-question test.
If we understand the four-color personality traits, this test is easy.
Here is the test.
#1. Did the guest know the name of the company? No.
#2. Did the guest know anything about the products? No.
#3. Did I know the guest’s dreams, goals, and ambitions? No.
#4. Did I lead with the products, or the opportunity? Neither. (Oh, wow! Please take note.)

My Worthless Sponsor gave a training session.
He asked, “Can you give me an example of failure?”
I raised my hand.
My Worthless Sponsor said, “Great. Are there any more examples here?”
Me: :(
How do I know what to say?
?The purpose of business is to solve other people’s problems. So the question should be, “How do I know what problem my prospect has?”
Answer: By listening. That is why the “talkers” have trouble building a business. How can we know what problems people have if we are doing all the talking?
Shy people? Great listeners. Awesome at network marketing.

Step #3 is easy. No rejection. Just do a bit of personal development or learning once a day.

2 年I have heard Big Al talking. Of course, when you read with YOUR voice in the head, you lose this part. Still highly recommended readings :)
