Unless you’ve already been a success in the past, they’ll remember your history of breakdowns more clearly than your history of successes.
One of the most frightening words any brand new multilevel marketing recruit will ever hear are, “produce a list of one hundred of your close friends, relations, and business acquaintances and call every one of them”. This can be a remarkable exercise and it can get you started, but there is a less stressful approach than chasing after people who already have a (not necessarily good) opinion about you.
Picture this example: what happens when a dude chases relentlessly after a woman for a night out? She FLEES from him. He scares her off because he’s seen as being desperate. What are the results when a sales man is anxious and pushy to close a sale? The customer feels his desperation and is turned off. The same thing happens when a multi level marketing rep pursues a prospect because he wants to get to the next higher level of the comp plan or because he needs the money: the prospect flees!
Precisely what would it take to have leads pursue YOU? How would you develop into the hunted, instead of the hunter?
You may have had the experience of something really great happening to you while you were least expecting it. It’s not unusual to hear to hear about a male who begins getting more attention from females when he’s no longer on the lookout for a hookup. Any time a sales person exudes an air of “I don’t really care whether you buy my product or not”, it may cause you to want the product even more. (After all, if the salesman has all the business he wants, the product must be really good, right?) And we’ve all learned about couples who conceive a child the moment they stop trying so hard.
Life sometimes seems bizarre. Why do do we have trouble acquiring the stuff we want, and creating the situations we want most? Why is it that the harder we try, the fewer results we get? One school of thought is that a person subconsciously rejects the things he or she desires. I want to clarify. If you WANT a thing, it’s because you don’t HAVE the thing, right? Stay with me here. In the end, if you possessed what you want you wouldn’t have to “want” it, correct? We think that WANTING something helps us GET it and the more we want it, the more likely we are to get it. Maybe that’s not true.
This is another way of looking at it: we only want what we don’t possess. If you’d like more customers, you’re unconsciously keeping it in your head that you don’t have enough. When you are mind is made up that you don’t have enough customers, you then can not HAVE enough customers.
The bottom line is you can’t possess two conditions at the same time. You can’t have sufficient and NOT have sufficient–of anything–simultaneously. It is like darkness and light. They can’t both be present in the same place at the same time.
The crucial step to creating a flourishing MLM marketing organization is to do the things you need to do (phone calls, blog posts, signing up and training activities) but avoid being attached to the outcome. Don’t do them out of a sense of scarcity. Do them simply because they yield predictable results when you invest your time in them. If you do what you do out of a sense of scarcity, you’ll produce scarce results. The principle is that “you get back what you put out.”
Don’t worry about signing up any particular prospect. Concern yourself more with having FUN than with signing up any specific prospect. When you’re having fun, you’ll “communicate” a sense that you don’t need anybody in particular to join your down line, and folks will wonder what it is you enjoy so much about your company. They’ll choose to link up with with you because you enjoy what you do.
This simple and straightforward shift in your state of mind will make you a Beacon of Attraction Marketing and you’ll stand out from your rivals, no matter which multilevel marketing organization you represent.
