Okay, so lets walk through the life of the average beginning network marketer.  I think it goes something like this…Bill goes to a home meeting with 9 other people, he was hesitant to go, but his buddy Jim talked him into it as a favor.  After the presentation, 7 of the people leave and 3 stay behind with questions.  Bill is one of the people that stays, and you can see on his face “he gets it”.  Bill’s head rotated about 3 times when he saw the power of the business plan and what the possibilities could be.  Great, now what?

So the next day, Bill calls everyone he knows and tells them about this great product and business plan he saw last night, how he is going to change the world and live on a beach for the rest of his life.  I love Bill’s enthusiasm, but much like a sprint racer, Bill is going to be good for about 100 yards, not a 20+ mile marathon.  Why?  Because 70-80% of the people that Bill talks to are going to tell him he’s crazy, those things don’t work, etc.

Bill is not only using the wrong method to approach them, he’s wasting his time talking to the wrong people.  The sad part is, from a human psychology stand point, Bill and many like him will mentally quit this business before they ever get started simply because they believe what their prospects tell them.  Humans are no different than animals in that we have a pack mentality.  If the pack tells Bill he can’t be successful, most Bills will believe this.  More importantly, Bill’s sponsor and leadership line set him up for failure.  This story has played out so many times that it has given our industry a bad name.

So what’s the answer?  Bill was never taught that he needs to spend his time talking to people who want to hear his message.  There is nothing wrong with Bill contacting his warm market, but he needs to have a system to pre-qualify those people so that he doesn’t face the rejection he hasn’t learned to deal with this early in his career as a networker.  Once they are pre-qualified, Bill can efficiently spend his time with all willing participants instead of having to do the qualifying himself.  Bill’s confidence will grow as he sees immediate success in his business and he will rapidly assume the position of leader.

Even better, Bill can now duplicate this proven success formula to everyone on his emerging team, because unlike traditional methods that require a lot of face to face prospecting and selling, the new marketing model requires nothing more than a computer connected to the internet and a cell phone!

Does such a program exist?  Absolutely!  This is what our team has implemented successfully and duplicated globally.  One more reason to get on board with The Dream Team!
