When Working With Leads From A High Quality Lead Generation Company?
Scene:
Youre sitting on perhaps 200 leads you JUST got from a highly recommended lead generation company. (Heres how to hook into an established group weve respected for 6 years thats offering maxout.com readers a special leads promotion)
OK. Pretend youve done a co-op leads deal and your new recruit also has a list of 200 names.
Mistake #1: Completely overestimating the likely responsePicture this: Your new baby calls 7 people, none of whom are any good for the business. Or not home. Plus one major pukey. Your recruit calls you, depressed and mad:
Hey these leads arent any good!
None of these people want this thing!
What did you tell me to buy these stupid leads for?Fix for mistake #1
KNOW and tell everyone the odds. BEFORE they do ANY reaching out method, be it warm market or cold.
Heres how. Pose this question to EVERYONE doing the business right at the beginning of the recruiting campaign.
What Percent Of The People Out There Have What It Takes To Make It In A Business Of Their Own?Did you know that MOST people will say: 1-5% or in that range. And theyre right. 1-5% are the best numbers we know. ALL experienced networkers agree. So do experienced real estate brokers, experienced commission sales people of ALL kinds, dot-com founders, and anyone else in a business whose success depends totally on the efforts put forth by the people themselves, plus others they get to join them in their mission.
So, therefore, out of say 100 leads, if someones having a bad hair day, how many people on the list would have what it takes? Whats ONE PERCENT of 100?
Ouch.
And how many would NOT have what it takes, or are just NOT A RIGHT ONE?
Double ugh. But better to know the truth up front, yes?
STEP one to surviving the process of wading through the wrong ones.
Teach the mission to ALL your precious people:
Find People For Whom It's The Right Thing To Be Doing Now. No One Else.That means, no more recruiting anyone you have to drag across the finish line. Or, across the starting line. They can most certainly try and drag everyone. But ask your people: Do you want it in your lifetime? Or do you want to do therapy?
So convey to them the odds immediately upon starting the campaign. So they dont think THEY have a problem or BO, or that the leads are no good. Both FALSE assumptions that cause people to quit with a bad taste. Entirely unnecessary.
Mistake #2: No One Told Anyone. If Not Today, Tomorrow
How many times does McDonalds advertise on TV? Youd think by now EVERYONE knows about McDonalds, right? And yet they KEEP RIGHT ON ADVERTISING each day, MANY TIMES a day. To ALL those prospects out there.
How come? Think they think someone out there does not know about McDonalds??
Not hardly. If not today, tomorrow, youll stop by. Thats the advertising strategy of all clever companies. If not today, tomorrow. So they have to be there everyday, After all, what if todays the day the ad pulls you in?
Direct marketing to quality leads is the same.
Buying leads once, and then no more, is like McDonalds advertising once a year. Cheaper for them and you, for sure, but not effective. So, sophisticated network marketers have a direct marketing to prospects strategy that entails reaching out a little each day. Thats why quality leads sources, like MLMprospects offer standing orders of leads each week, or each month. So that the process of reaching out to good prospects is steady, consistent. Like McDonalds. Every day a little.
Get Leads Here
Because: If not today, tomorrow. You or someone in your group will come across that right one. Remember, someone sponsored EVERY SINGLE BIG BANANA in your company. If not today, tomorrow.
How long? Well, McDonalds has been advertising 30+ years. No one is saying YOU need to wait that long. But plan 6-12 months of regular doses of leads coming in each week, or each month. And reaching out to them a little each day for the next 6-12 months.
Remember. If not today, tomorrow. Thats when you or yours can expect to sponsor the next big banana in your company, in YOUR organization. Just like McDonalds gets enough people dropping by to have become a multi-billion dollar enterprise by little exposures every day, many times a day.
Except, you dont need as many people as McDs does. No. You already know, dont you, that top bananas in the successful companies have 1-4 people earning them 85-90% of that obnoxious income. See the Magic 1-4 in the Rules book.
Since chances are 1 in a 100 for finding a right person, consider planning for a fixed number of leads coming in each week or each month.
Depending on how much time you plan to spend marketing your business, heres what we suggest on the Blitz teams weve been running this past year:Plan to get at least 1000-3000 leads from a quality source.
Then, spread them out over 6 months, say. Have them send you 100-300 leads a month for 6-12 months. More if youre going faster. Same for your people.
After all, what if it works for you the way it works for others who know the dictum: If not today, tomorrow ?Mistake #3: Saying Any Of The Five Worst Things To A Prospect.

how many would NOT have what it takes, or are just NOT A RIGHT
