Power Recruiting With Posture by Donald Latimore

Many network marketers ask me “Don, how do you recruit so many people?” Well, the answer is simple. I created a system within a system and I run that system over-and-over again.

In my 7-Part MLM Mini Series I talked about creating “You Inc.”. I hope you remember that training because that is the backbone for my business. (www.basicMVPrecruiting.com)

I created Basic MVP Marketing because I wanted to brand myself. Now, I know that I have said this a lot, but it’s true. And now, my network marketing company is just a part of my Basic MVP Marketing business model. (visit www.basicMVPinvestor.com).

But, I didn’t want to talk about branding myself during this training. I want to focus on recruiting with “Posture”.

You see, once I branded myself I immediately took on a posture that I had never had before. Therefore, whenever I talk to prospects I have a lot of posture in my words and actions.

Remember, a lot of people join certain network marketing companies because of the leadership. People join people. People will not join a company that has weak leadership. Trust me, they are a dime a dozen and companies with weak leadership fade away very quickly.

So, that means you have to gain some posture so you can recruit the world. If you believe that you can make $100K a year or a month, then you can. I know that I can, and it shows in my posture.

One of the biggest tips I want to leave you with today is “Don’t You Ever Beg Your Prospects For Anything”. The word “Please” should rarely come out of your mouth when you are speaking to a prospect. Yes, I said it, and I’ll say it again. “Avoid saying Please”.

Why?

You should be demanding respect from the very beginning. Look at these two lines:

1) “Will you please take a look at this video tonight?”

2) “Take a look at this video tonight and I’ll call you tomorrow at 6pm or 8am, which time is better?”

As you can see the second phrase is much better than the first phrase. It is said with a lot of posture and will get your prospects to take action a lot quicker. That is what you want and that is how you recruit the best of the best.

How To Keep Satisfied Customers by Donald Latimore

I see a lot of network marketers that bring new recruits and new customers into their business all the time but they fail to do the one fundamental thing to keep them. This happens especially with new customers as opposed to new recruits in the network marketing world.

What is it you may be asking?

Well, most network marketers don’t go into a retention mode to keep their customers satisfied. Retention should be a major part of your business model, or else, all the work you did to get the customer was for nothing.

Just think about this…

As a paying customer of a product or service, how would you like to be treated both before and after the sale?

You want the sales person to show some appreciation towards you. You want the sales person to acknowledge that you chose to spend your money with him/her rather than go to the competition. Right?

So, in the network marketing world you have to remember this as well. What’s unfortunate is that network marketers spend so much time focusing on recruiting that almost no time is spent on customer retention.

As a network marketer there are many ways you can continue to follow-up with your customers to ensure they stay with you and show your appreciation. Here is a small list:

1) Periodically send them out mailers on how to use the product or service
2) Send them cards on special occasions (birthdays, holidays, etc.)
3) Call them once a quarter to see how the product or service is working for them (I love this method because it personalizes each contact)
4) Place them on an autoresponder to continue to get e-mails from you
5) Immediately send them a small gift after they purchased your product or service

One thing that I want you to remember is that the more customers you can retain, the more you will have a chance to achieve the residual income you are looking for.

In this industry people think you have to do something magical to keep customers. But, you don’t. You just have to have a regular system set up to show your customers you care. Customer retention should be addressed just like large fortune 500 companies address it. They know that it takes more money to acquire a new customer than it does to retain and sell to your existing ones.

And remember, even your new recruits are your customers as well. The more you get your organization to follow-up with your customers, the more customers your organization will retain.
