How To Talk To A Woman In Network Marketing (MLM)

“Closers Wanted", or "You Have To Close The Deal”, or my personal favorite "ABC - Always Be Closing"

Have you ever heard these clowns using their guerilla closer tactics tell you, “Bring everyone you can find into the meeting and I’ll close ‘em for ya”?

Maybe, your still in one of those companies where the biggest, beefiest super guerilla closer of them all is supposed to close all the dull-whitted prospects you manage to bring to a tele-call everyday?

You have probably also heard the super fat cat awesome closer gets the big box because he is so important that he deserves that reward the most.

Have you ever noticed it is the guerilla closer tactician that gets the lime light up on the stage? What with his power suit, power shirt, power tie, power watch, and yes even power under wear? Man, watch him strut! Can you tell how much he loves it? 

Those guys think they are so cool because closing is the most important thing on the planet, and only they know how to do it because they have cevelar skin, titanium bones, and liquid nitrogen blood. They just know they are “all that”.

What Is Missing Here?  Did you see one mention of the word “she” or “her”? 

No. 

Why do you suppose that is guys?

HINT: None of the gals are guessing.

Guys, until now I have stuck it to you, a lot like you stuck it to the girls you have “scored on”, to get your attention. 

In network marketing men seem to think that the faster and more often they can “score” .. oops … er, uh … I mean “close” the better.

Wake up fellas! 

If the girls you tried to "close" in the back seat of your dads car did not want that back then, what makes you think that things have changed just because the game is now MLM or Network Marketing? 

Grow up!

Network Marketing & MLM FACTS About Women:

1. Women make up 80% of all network marketers according to the Direct Sales Association. 
2. Women do not like to be pushed into anything.
3. Women hate to be closed.

Remember back on that first date guys? 

Admit it … you knew she did not want to be dragged into that back seat to be closed! Heads up … she still does not want that and she never will.   And she feels the same about you and your “close” in MLM.

I know you are probably thinking, “So what’s the big deal? What do they want?”

OK Bubbu, come here and let me draw you a picture.

No matter what was going on in your head, or what your vision of the future was, that girl knew she would have to carry your baby for 9 months, and then care for it and nurture it for at least another 18 years. And get very little....if any "support" from you the closing gun slinger who's just out for the thrill of the kill!

Meanwhile where is mister Romeo?  Dragging some other poor girl into the same “close”.

That girl knows that in today’s network marketing world it takes weeks, or even months just to build good relationships. They need to be sure your not going to just take off after you get what you really wanted, the "close". 

That takes trust, understanding and support!

Then it will probably take another 1 to 3 years for those relationships to pay off in the form of a long-term, residual income. And of course by this time that girl, who became a mother is now a grandmother so she may be needed to help with the next generation of new network marketing youngsters.

That girl … no … that woman knows all this takes is first trust, planning, and passion. That woman knows what most guys have yet to learn …

Here Is What Women Know...

It is NOT all about the “close” or the first sale. 

She hates being “closed” as much as she hated being treated and talked to as a “score”. 

She is NOT a thing to be “closed”, she is a person.  Building a long-term business customer base takes a lot of understanding people needs, patience in training, and nurturing.   Starting out with a long-term mind set is most important to success in MLM.

Huddle UP Guys!

So guys, do you really want to be the big stud in network marketing? 

OK, then here is the big play. 

Spend all your time talking about how the women you meet in MLM can build a powerful, long-term customer base. 

Oh, and you might also want to discuss how those same women can find a few good business partners to build strong for the next couple of generations. 

Heck, maybe by then, if you are still around, you might actually find that they want the same thing you do.

Are You Using A Sharp or Dull Axe In Your Network Marketing Business?

Imagine walking up to a man trying to chop down a tree in the forest. He's struggling with all his might and yet he's barely made any progress.

You look at him and you see that he is chopping at the tree vigorously and he's been at it for quite some time and he's intent on getting the tree to down.

He has a single focus and is using all the proper leverage and perfect technique, but as you get close you see there is one thing out of place.

He's using a dull blade.

You say to the man . . .

"Hey buddy why don't you just sharpen your blade, you'll get the job done twice as fast?"

He replies . . .

"No time, can't you see I'm trying to chop down this tree?"

Well, when I first started network marketing I was this guy out in the prospecting forest trying to chop down my tree of successfully building a downline.

I hacked at it. I tried all the techniques I was told were proper and I was intent on using them with all my might until my goal was reached.

Unfortunately, the guy in our example above had one advantage over me.

He had someone actually come up to him and point out his problem.

The sad truth is . . .

If someone had done this for me I probably would have given them the same response that our man with the axe above gave.

I would have said . . .

"Can't you see I'm trying to make cold calls and build a downline?  I don't have time for that!"

While in the act and exerting all our energy to a task we give very little time to reflection on what may truly help us be more successful. We think that if we just keep hacking away that sooner or later we will be successful in achieving our end.

While this may hold true . . .

Wouldn't a sharper blade make that struggle a whole lot easier?

I hear a question brewing . . .

"Paul, you say a blade, but what does this equate to in network marketing?"

HOW YOU MARKET YOUR BUSINESS...Silly!

All I'll say is this . . .

You can't consistently recruit 10 - 20 people in a month with personal contact or with the phone, but when you learn to leverage the awesome power of the internet using "funded proposals" to your advantage you end up with a mighty sharp MLM/network marketing blade that can!

Here's a super sharp axe I personally use to build my MLM with...

Quality MLM Prospects Through An MLM Funded Proposal

Finding quality MLM prospects is becoming increasingly expensive and then converting those prospects to sign-ups or sales even more difficult.  MLM prospects are often overly skeptical and hesitant to join a new company if they have been ripped off in the past, lost a lot of money, or simply failed to succeed.

 

The good news is that there is certainly no shortage of people looking for ways to earn extra money and start a home-based business through network or multilevel marketing.

 

The opportunity is unlimited. The prospects are there and those who are successful in this business find ways to decrease prospecting costs while at the same time increasing sales.

 

Introducing the MLM funded proposal.

 

The MLM funded proposal is probably by far one of the most effective tools in a network marketer’s arsenal of marketing strategies.

 

The funded proposal is simply a lead generation system that turns prospects into committed customers by first selling them an inexpensive product on the front end and then using that product to educate, build a working relationship with, and sell the customer on the bigger MLM opportunity.

 

In the MLM industry one of the most common front end products to use is an informational product or e-book. These types of products can be produced fairly inexpensively and once created make for pure profit when sold. By selling an informational product (funded proposal) on the front end marketer is able to have the prospects actually cover his or her marketing costs. So therefore essentially the funded proposal is a mechanism for generating extremely low cost or sometimes even profitable leads.

 

The MLM funded proposal can be a very powerful marketing strategy for targeting those who might already be involved with an MLM opportunity but are not having success or are not happy with the current company they're involved with.

 

For example you might produce an informational product that is tied to how to be more successful in network marketing or how to find targeted MLM leads. This is a popular topic among an MLM funded proposals because it is one of the most difficult problems facing MLM marketers. Thousands of people are online every day searching for something that is going to help them turn their business into the profitable cash machine they've always dreamed of.

 

Selling these prospects on how to be successful in their current network marketing business is much easier than selling them on the idea of quitting their current company and signing up with  a new MLM company. Therefore they are much more open to paying a low price for an informational product (MLM funded proposal) that promises to help them be more successful.

 

Once they have purchased your informational product you can start building a relationship with them , not only through the content of e-book, but also through e-mail auto-responder campaigns . Even prospects who have been unsuccessful in the MLM industry before are going to be much more open to following your lead or recommendations on another MLM opportunity after you have built that relationship and credibility.

 

The MLM funded proposal is your ticket to unlimited targeted MLM leads that have proven that they are willing to spend money on the right opportunity.

The "Smart" Way To Build MLM Business - Funded Proposals!

The biggest expense you’ll have in your business is lead generation. 

That's right your advertising and marketing costs will be much greater than the cost to join a network marketing company.

If you can erase this expense, you can stay in the game until your residuals kick in.

Believe it or not, you can even turn your lead generation pipeline into a PROFIT CENTER.

95% to 97% of the people you talk to are NOT going to join you in your MLM/Network Marketing company.  I didn't make that number up or suggest it as my opinion...IT'S JUST A FACT!

That’s just the way it is.

Hey, you just can’t afford to lose 95-97% of your prospects, can you?

Well, that fact is, the smart networkers make money whether their prospects join
them or not…

“How in the world?" You ask...

The fact is, your best “targeted” prospect for your business is someone that has already been in a home-based business...

Whether they’re in a business right now or have been in the past.

You don’t have to sell them on the industry, and they quite often already know other people that they can bring into a profitable venture.

What’s the last thing another MLMer wants to see?

An ad for another "Groundfloor" MLM deal, "Breakthrough" product or "Never Before Seen" compensation plan.

What’s almost every MLMer looking for?

A “how-to” system to make his or her opportunity work!

People Don’t Buy MLM. They Buy SOLUTIONS & SYSTEMS.

People aren’t looking for another deal…

They’re looking for a way to make the one they’re already in work!

So, what do you market instead of your network marketing company?

A Funded Proposal of course.  Even better would be to offer a funded proposal system like the very proven Funded Streamline Sponsoring online system to other MLM'ers.

Here's why... 

A funded proposal is the process of selling an inexpensive, but useful product on the front end to cover your advertising expenses, and then back-ending the real product or "opportunity", which is your MLM company.

Essentially, it allows you to dive into paid forms of effective advertising like pay-per-click, yet still advertise for free, or close to it.

If you're serious about building a successful network marketing business, and your frustrated and running out of money for leads/advertising, always use a funded proposal.
