Continued....


Although recruiting business builders continues
to be bandied about as the way to "get rich fast" it has not proven
to be that so for the 95% who drop out. Has it been for you? Yet the
upline and those in front of the room continue to scream at their
new recruits to go after business builders. But if you don't feel
strongly about doing that, if you don't love it madly, what should
you do when you're nagged about that each time you have a conversation
with an upline?
Here's what. If you want to get your 100 regular loyal customers before
you go after the business builders, DO THAT. No matter what your upline
says. Isn't it your business after all? AOL and cable TV have millions
of customers, and no business builders. They do OK.
If
customers are you inner strength, because you love your products,
lead with getting them. If you make say $10 for each customer order
of $50-100/mo, how much will you make each month with 100 loyal customers?
Here's a new book for people who want to know how to ask for "their"
customers, "If My
Product's So Great, How Come I Can't Sell It?" It is at the printers
and is scheduled to ship June 15. You can get it here. Excerpts are
available HERE
to tantalize you.

Same as #2. If the only success stories they tell over and over are
of the same people doing the thing you don't want to do, and it's
the same old same old each week, take a break. Stop going to the meetings
and don't call into the calls. Stay home or go to a caf%8E and develop
your strengths instead - get good at doing the things you love - not
things you hate.
Bottom line. If you have to stop conversations your upline for a month
or two because they nag too much, stop having them. If your meetings
feel like you are getting nowhere, and no one will support your strengths,
stop going for a while.
Develop your reaching out methods based on what is "you", and stay
within the boundaries set by your company. Do it alone or with someone
else who feels like you do. Team calling can be fun. Team door-knocking
can be fun. Doing ANY reaching out method in teams can be fun if all
the members enjoy that particular reaching out method.
If you're good on the phone, there are lots of local interest groups
with member directories. There are businesses that will share their
lists if they believe in the products also, like your upscale hair
dresser, your alternative MD, or your tennis club. MANY suggestions
are in the "If My
Product's So Great, How Come I Can't Sell It?" book.
You don't let outsiders "steal" your dream, right?
Well, don't let your upline do it, either.
