Asking someone if they’re interested in your opportunity could be the single worst mistake in recruiting other than just flat out not doing it.
(You can’t fix anything with inaction.)
But my guess is, you’re willing to work, you just don’t want to do anything that’s pointless or doesn’t produce results…
Let me ask you, how many people have you sponsored by spear chucking them with “the question?”
Maybe a few? Have they stuck around?
Probably not…
I registered around 20 personal reps, just by spear chucking them with my opportunity.
I was literally willing to do anything to succeed. (I still am.)
Sadly all I got from those 20 personal reps was precisely…
Zero.
Yep, they all quit. Every. Single. One of them.
How’s that for a belief building Tuesday? 😉
Well they quit for a few reasons…
1. My retention sucked. I didn’t apply the principles I’ve laid out in the “Perfect Retention Secrets” course.
Why?
Because I didn’t know them. And what you don’t know, does hurt you.
2. I didn’t set the prospect up properly. I was chasing them and they knew it.
They felt they had control over me. Even though my words didn’t give them that control, deep down they knew that I needed them more than they needed me.
And that issue started at the very beginning of the process.
I had no idea that there was another way to set up a prospect properly…
I had no idea that you could say a few sentences and completely change the trajectory of the conversation and immediately put YOU in the driver’s seat instead of the prospect.
And become the hunted instead of the hunter.
We talk a lot about the hunter / hunted philosophy in online marketing and lead gen, but we rarely ever talk about it in offline recruiting.
The truth is, to be successful in any type of recruiting, you have to become attractive enough to get people to chase YOU, rather than chasing them.
Thankfully there’s a science to it, and I’ve broken down that science for you in this Facebook live from the other day.
Look for something called the “Lynchpin” technique in that video. That’s what you’re looking for.
And if you want to really dive into this and quit chasing people, you NEED to get the free script and the Cold Contacting Hacks course. (There’s a link in the Facebook live.)
(I retail the cold contacting hacks course for almost $1000 on our website. But I sell it as a one time offer after you claim your free script for $47…
Please don’t tell anyone about that in the comments on Facebook, that info is just for you, my faithful subscribers.)
Anyway, go watch the Facebook live now!
Talk soon,
Zach
