Share Your Best!

[H_Martell]

The following list is for anyone on your team to share this valuable information:

1.   Establish Goals (Why a person wants to build his or her network)

2.   Commitment (amount of time, resources, and effort is the person willing to devote to developing his or her business) Keys: Be honest with your new enrollee so his or her goal is realistic.

3.   Education: Read books, personal development, and audio’s about the direct sales arena.(Provide prospects with the tools to generate highly qualified leads.)

4.   Develop a prospect list: Downfall most people just starting out has is they look for the first person who is usually the poorest, most down-and out people they can think of. Instead they should be looking for the busiest, most industrious people they know. (More important people is qualities to look for is up beat people and desire the best for themselves and their loved ones.)

5.   Get Busy: Use your experienced team leader so they can help you qualify people for your business and add excitement and supportive network of business builders.

6.   FORM

Form stands for Family, occupation, recreation and message.( This acronym is the building block for establishing solid relationships and qualifying people for  your time.)



7.   System (New members when learning business and building one’s own team is essential to encouraging commitment and ongoing activity. (Live opportunity calls, 3 way calling, opportunity meeting, company literature, and opportunity DVD, and Web-based presentations or webinars.











8.   Other resources: fax on demand, voice of demand, conference calls, and printed material.

Strive to build rapport among team leaders and members in your organization as well as the corporation itself, building both relationships and belief.
One of the most important elements in getting a new enrollee off to a great start is meet his or her expectation. Never force your enrollees into a particular goal or level of achievement. But rather reinforce the validity of the goals.


9.   CELEBRATE Recognition is the key when team members hit a specific goal or accomplishment in their lives. The final and perhaps most important part of a great system is constant communications with new prospects, particularly during the first 90 days.

Correct,

Any social networking which has a blog you should highly be involved with.

You see people buy from people not systems.

This is why you must provide something of value which will encourage the reader of the blog to go to down and read more include a short signature link in each blog you post.

If you want to know more about what I do with blogging feel free to contact me via email via my profile and gladly assist you.

Hello
Getting started was rather frustrating for me until I found GDI. I had no previous experience or education. I needed to find a way to subsidize my income fast. The best advise I got work hard and figure out a way to make 1 dollar and then do it again and again.

[RivetC]

I agree with Blogging.. creating blogs works great also besides in the social networking sites..

The search engines love blogging and articles too.

i'm trying to market and i want to market to non-profit organizations (ie: churches and so on). since they are non-profit would they have to pay taxes on the money they recieve from GDI

[VivianP]

Hello,

I am new to GDI.  I was wondering if anyone had any scripts they use when they call a prospect.  If so, please share.

Thank you,
Vivian

Where are all the good network marketing prospects at?

Many networkers seem convinced they don't live anywhere near them!

I say that because they'll spend hundreds of dollars a month on leads or genealogies all the while insisting that there are no decent prospects in their area.
Fact is, there are. (No matter how small of a town or city you live in).

Virtually everywhere there are people who would like to change their lifestyle, but who have no clue how to do that. There are also people in need of your product or service.

So, what's the best way to "tap in" to this goldmine of MLM prospects known as the "local market"?

We'll answer this by approaching it from two directions:

1) People you naturally come in contact with and

2) Services that can put you in contact with even more people who may be candidates for your opportunity (or product/service).

To get started, let's define terms.

"Local Market Prospects" refer to people who live or work in the same general area as you. In other words, people you come in contact with (or COULD come in contact with) on a daily basis.

They are not necessarily people you know (although they can be).

Approach Number One: Think about places you go and the people you cross paths with and practice alert living. Be on the lookout for sharp prospects wherever you go.

Example: You visit a local restaurant. You have a sharp, friendly food server who catches your attention. Right away, you observe this person has great people skills, a strong work ethic and is "on the ball".

Here's how you can EASILY prospect this person. Let's call him "John", and here's what you can say:

John, listen want to thank you for your great service this afternoon, it's some of the best service I've had in a restaurant this year (Now at this, "John" should be all smiles as you've just paid him a well deserved compliment). You then proceed: Listen John, I own a business here in the area and always keep an eye out for sharp people and you definitely caught my attention today. Let me ask you a question: do you keep your work options open? (Now, if John really is a sharp, heads-up person what's he gonna say? Obviously "yes", to which you respond): Good for you, John. I think you'll be glad you do! Tell you what, you're working right now and I'm busy myself, I'm heading off to meet someone, but let's do this.

Let me get your contact information and I'll drop you a line tomorrow (or when he get's off later the same day) and give you some more information on our opportunity and who we're looking for and see if we've got a match". Then you simply write down his information and you've just generated a strong local lead. Now, what makes it so strong is this: you've had a chance to MEET your prospect personally, observe their work ethic, their personality, and their people skills. How much stronger is THAT than simply calling a prospect "cold" on the phone? This is powerful.

And it's not just limited to restaurants (although people in this industry often make excellent networkers). No, you can do this in virtually anywhere.

Approach Number Two: Now, what can you do to come into contact with qualified local prospects in a "leveraged way"?

Join a lead referral network!

These are groups that meet locally and refer prospects to one another.

You simple attend a small meeting in your area and share a little about yourself and your business and you can immediately tap into the leveraged power of business networking.


An alternative organization (which is limited to the USA only at this time) is called: LeTip. For more info, visit letip.com

Be sure to look in your local area and you may find additional organizations like these to expand your reach even further.

That's it's for today...

Take care

Howard,

I just loved the advice in your post.  And yes you have Hit the Nail On the Head!  People always think that such and such works for everyone else and not for them because... Just fill in the blanks -> I live in a rural area and there aren't many people for me to talk to, I don't know alot of people, I already shared an opportunity with my friends and family that didn't work so no one believes me about my offer.

These are all just EXCUSES!

Our business is SIMPLE!  We just need to find people who are like minded and for whom the product and the opportunity are right for.  When we find those types of individuals we have a winning combination that will sporn "Duplication".

Keep up your great work and sharing, I know that even the teacher can learn from his students as I have from you.

Sharing the Top with you and others who strive to be here,

Greetings

Many times the "soft" sell works great. Other times prospects must be CLOSED or SOLD.

What is or are your BEST one line closes ?

Here is one of mine:

"If you keep doing what your doing, you will keep getting what your getting.  Are Ready to change your Life NOW ?"

[Gordon Milton]

The basic reason why many GDI members do not want to contact
local people (especially family and friends) is a lack of
confidence in their choice of opportunity.

If you are convinced that GDI really is the best business
opportunity, then why in heavens name, would you not wish to
share it with your family, friends and anyone who comes within 3
feet (1 metre for you metric heads) of you?

If you are not absolutely certain that GDI really is the best
business opportunity, you need to get convinced.

The other really important factor about building local groups is
that members can meet if they want to. Humans are social
creatures. For those that do want to meet, training,
presentation and recognition events form a very important "glue"
to keeping people in the business and feeling part of a team or
group. For those that don't like meetings (the minority), you
don't have to attend.

What I'm finding out is that to pay ten dollars a month for most people to have a website would be one thing but these websites you can't do much with.  I've tried to get mine going but it's difficult and people under me ask me how to do them.  I can't tell them because it's confusing and you don't get much room to really put anything in a site.  So it's hard to sell domain names and hosting when it's so complicated.  I haven't even used mine.  I made my own site after going out and getting another domain name from another company.

When I tried to do their site, it doesn't let me put things where I want them, and you can only put in so many sentences so it wouldn't let me put in what I wanted.  Is anyone else having problems doing this.  I can't even get my domain to go in front page to make a site from scratch so how does anyone use their domain names to make a website.   I guess that's why I have problems getting people to do this because they can see I'm not using my own domain or website. 

I've also noticed that we can't put in a website address and wondered why this was.  On every other forum I've ever been on, we're allowed to post our website addresses and email addresses so wondered why on this one we're only allowed to say certain things.   Thanks for any answers....shirley

I'm new, great advice.
