Getting started in a new venture can be challenging. People brand new to network marketing face a number of challenges daily. Some things are easier than others to deal with. One particular challenge for new network marketers is dealing with rejection. (I’ve been there and done that)
When most people join a business opportunity, they are on fire and excited the first 90 days.
Oftentimes after presenting the new business to family and friends the bubble of enthusiasm gets busted.
It is family and friends that usually say no and give you all the reasons why they think your business won’t work. They mean well, but just don’t share your vision or see the opportunity.
The first thing you need to know is that your friends and family are not rejecting you. While you might be hearing them say No, what they are most likely saying is “Not Right Now”.
Keep in mind, the moment they see you having success in your business they will change their tune. What used to be a firm No, will turn into a strong “Yes, Tell Me More”.
There are a number of proven strategies and techniques that you can implement immediately to cope with this type of rejection. This article will help you through the No’s. Follow these Top 5 Tips For New Network Marketers:
1. Write down your 20 reasons for getting involved with your business. Why is this step so important? Aside from the fact that writing your reasons is like a contract with yourself, it is a stronger reminder when the clouds of doubt roll in and try to burst your bubble of enthusiasm. Maybe your reasons are for your family, to be your own boss, or for financial freedom. Having a written list of why you joined will keep you focused.
“Write it down. Written goals have a way of transforming wishes into wants; cant’s into cans; dreams into plans; and plans into reality. Don’t just think it – ink it!” ~Author Unknown
Your why is more important than your how.
2. Approach your “warm market” as practice only. Every network marketing business tells you to make a list of everyone that you know (your warm market) and to contact them first about your business. When you contact the people on your warm market list tell them upfront and confidently that you really don’t want them in your business and that they are just practice. This takes them off the hook from feeling obligated to take any action, it releases you from feeling rejected, it also peaks their interest because you applied a technique known in sales known as ‘the take away’. By you telling them that you don’t want them in your business, they are more likely to pitch you on why you should.
3. Set your sights on your cold market. The primary reason for this is what you think is your coldest market is actually your warmest market. The Internet is open 24 hours with millions of people that don’t know you from a can of paint. However, by learning basic Internet Marketing you can easily share your opportunity with like minded people who are actually interested in what you have to offer.
4. Go through all of the training that your company has to offer. Participate in conference calls and learn everything you can about your company. And why is this advisable? You need to become an expert in your industry. You should be able to speak with authority about the products, services and opportunity that you are offering. People smell rookie a mile a way. If you don’t know what you’re doing or what you’re talking about why should they buy fom you or join your team?
In addition to learning about your company. You must spend time on your own personal development. Your success will be determined not just by your efforts but your thoughts. It is important you feed your mind good food for thought. Read books by key authors like Napoleon Hill, Robert Kiyosaki, Zig Ziglar and Brian Tracy to name a few.
5. Become an Alpha Leader with a magnetic personality. Establish yourself as an Alpha leader by doing the things that Alpha Leaders do. This is one of the most important things that you can do. If you get this right you will have people begging to join your team. The truth of the matter is people do business with people that they like. They are joining YOU, not your business.
