They laughed when I said I was switching to
off-line recruiting…
I’ll never forget that team ‘pep talk’ conference call.
It was not long ago…
We were all on a conference call, my upline
and all his team,
about 130 people - and a good number were
in my downline.
“You guys need lead prosperity,” droned
Greg, our upline guru,
“…the person with the most leads wins, and that means buying more leads.
Let’s hear from some of our top producers,
to see what they are doing to bring about
lead prosperity…
Dave, let’s start with you…”
Yeah Dave. Greg’s number one
lap dog.
Greg brought Dave over with him and built under his position.
Dave used to be Greg’s upline in their old
company.
“That’s great advice Greg,” praised Dave, “you have to spend
good money to make good money,
and buying these online Internet leads
is state-of-the-art.
I’m mean, that’s where all the action is.”
After the chorus of ‘Amen’s’ from most of
the flock, one of
the newbies who didn’t not know any better,
said,
‘Can I ask a question Greg?’
And before Greg could cut him off, this new
guy went on,
“Is it just me, or is anyone else struggling with these
Internet leads?
I mean hardly any one answers the phone, and
those that do –
no one remembers filling out a form,
or seems to have the slightest interest in
Network Marketing –
and some are downright rude with me
for calling them.
Is it just me, or is everyone having this
problem?”
Boy, did I know how true that was.
Greg decided to avoid the issue and solved it
by
asking me to respond, so I would look like the
bad guy.
I hadn’t expected to be called out,
it was my first time being asked my
opinion.
“Well, Well, I stammered,”
What would I do, curry favor with Greg…
or dare tell the truth?
While I was thinking, Greg said
“Come on Andy, you’ve been doing really great
in the last 30 days,
9 new distributors and a lot of qualifying
volume,
you’re having a great month.”
Greg knew I was really doing well in the last
30 days by reading his backoffice stats.
He figured I was doing what he preached,
buying those so-called leads.
Those really were crap leads.
“Well to be honest Greg, I gave up on
those
‘so-called’ leads two months ago,
and started focusing on recruiting offline,
and it’s really working great.”
Greg and Dave started to snicker and giggle.
As soon as I heard their laughter I shut
up.
I figured I better stop now, and not get into
any more trouble,
but all of a sudden everyone else was
talking!
“How did you do it?”
“Offline, what is it?”
“What are you doing?”
“Is it expensive?”
“Can anyone do it?”
“Andy, you’ve got to share, what’s your
secret?”
“Come on and tell us!”
I forgot all about my upline and started to
explain.
“You see, like most of you I had reached the
end
of my patience and had given up on buying leads,
nothing that came from the internet seemed to
work for me.”
"A few months ago,
I saw an interesting ad for a book on Amazon.com
written by David Williams – a new
method of prospecting
using real everyday tourist postcards that
cost peanuts.
I read more and learned of a guy who started
with postcards and was recruiting INTERESTED
prospects,
which actually called him after getting his
card.”
“The book was called
How to Prospect and Recruit using Postcards for your MLM or Network Marketing Business The Low cost
Prospecting and Recruiting Tool that Out Performs Online Methods.
It was less than $20, and it showed step by
step how to
prospect for those who were actually
INTERESTED in
a business by simply mailing postcards.”
Dave jumped in
‘Look we all know about those glossy MLM hype
cards,
they are much more expensive than our
online leads!”
“That’s just it Dave, these aren’t those ugly
glossy
pre-printed expensive cards, nor are they
those ugly
‘print yourself all text’ cards. The author,
David Williams
shows you a special way for anyone to
create
personalized postcards, but in a mostly
automated way –
it’s frankly amazing.”
“Putting the system together was as simple
as the book
said it would be, and after a short time was altogether too easy.
Best of all - the people who are recruited by
postcards
all want to use them too because they know
they work!
In fact most had quit other MLMs because
they
had no methods to prospect.
I sponsored 9 new people
and 3 more are signing up tomorrow.
And all of this success
came from a little book I bought on Amazon.”
