Cultivating Leads
So how do you grow a down line in network marketing these days? One seed at a time, is the suggestion that “Jim Jinright” gives to newbies in the business. Growing a downline in your MLM is similar to farming, it takes patience, dedication and the right elements. You have to be able to spot the good seeds from the bad. To elaborate, recruiting people is a process of selection and elimination. Similar to tending a garden, you start with picking the rights seeds.
You need to spend a majority of your time in network marketing attracting the right people to your sales funnels. This starts with your marketing message. What does your marketing message attract or detract? Growing a garden is a long-term commitment, so shouldn’t your MLM business, marketing and recruiting process be the same?
Once you set up the proper marketing message for your MLM, then you will start to market online/offline or both. Many network marketers these days are finding leverage by marketing on the internet. Once you generate the content and disseminate it via social media, video marketing, article submission, PPC, blogs and podcast, then just add water and watch your lead generation grow.
This is where the whole harvest can yield big rewards or total devastation. This is where your posture and select/deselect process is critically important especially if you want to recruit the right candidates into your MLM business. Without question, you want to select high energy people. Not the type of people that are over the top or power hungry to a fault, but rather people that have positive energy. These are the people that utilize superlatives like “absolutely” and or they always seem to smile. This type of person is action oriented and does not make excuses in life. These are the people that you want to recruit into your MLM downline as they represent the “perfect seeds” for that glorious network marketing garden you’ve been cultivating.
Have fun with the process
So growing your business is sort of like being a farmer or gardener. You need to know when you are giving too much water or not enough. You need to tend to your fields without overdoing it.
Especially as it relates to new seeds. Spend the necessary time with the newbies but put your attention on the more mature or developed down line in your organization, this will allow your seedlings to grow and sprout.
I see so many people involved in network marketing that smother their down line and or they try to control the process. Growing a successful business in MLM requires that you master the skills of recruiting and developing future leaders. So if you want to grow a down line that can generate leads for themselves then make sure you plug them into the proper training and get rid of any cry babies; these are the people that will destroy the roots of your organization.
Finding the right qualified prospects takes energy/balance and time, but it is one of the most important skills next to marketing that you will need to master. If you simplify the concept it is leadership! Leadership is taking responsibility for your actions and ensuring that everyone you recruit does the same or simply do not recruit them! If you don’t want weeds in your garden, don’t recruit them!
