Wondering if anyone out there is using newspaper classifieds to generate
new prospects? If so, are you having success?

Hello everyone!

My soap box pitch for today:  Newbies come in eager for the potential.  (I know...I still am one.)  They're online and are bombarded by every biz opp that promises potential.  WE need to give direction on what exactly to do, step by step...ie.  "that reply I sent you, use that one.  copy/paste in to a draft and have it ready when your back-office let's you know that you have a lead that went through your site.  make contact...", etc, etc.  By giving them simple steps that they know they can do (because that's what WE do!), they now have direction.  Next is to constantly remind them w/ motivation.  My team motto is Be Strong (which happens to be my username).  I sign off on every communication w/ this and let them know they are my team and I am going to see them through to their goal.  Helping them reach their goal achieves OUR goal!  Everyone wants more time and more money...we just need to remind them constantly on what they need to do to get it.  Being prior military, I gave one of my team members this to ponder (which surprised the heck out of me to come up w/ it!)..."In boot camp, while on the firing line, I remember my drill sergeant yelling in my ear---KEEP YOUR SIGHT ON TARGET! HOW DO YOU EXPECT TO HIT IT IF YOU DON'T KEEP YOUR SIGHT ON TARGET!!"  Only you know what you really want out of life.  That's your target!  Now do all that you need to do, KEEPING YOUR SIGHT ON THAT TARGET, and you will hit it.  Good luck to all and I wish everyone a Merry Christmas and A 2006 OF FINANCIAL ABUNDANCE!!  Aloha, Q.
