Success results when preparedness (your prospect) and opportunity (what you can offer) meet. Select those who are prepared - those who have a POSITIVE ATTITUDE (a must), who are respected and ambitious, and who are on your level or above. Most often, the more successful a person is already, the quicker they are to see the tremendous opportunity that Market America has to offer. Remember, you are doing them a favor - they are not doing you a favor. You are offering them the opportunity for financial freedom and the realization of their dreams. Be sure not to prejudge people. when you think, "Oh, they wouldn't be interested," you have just made a decision for that person. A decision that deprives them of one of the greatest opportunities this country has to offer. Give them the freedom to decide. Then, they can never say that you didn't give them a chance. Many will thank you for the rest of their lives. Prejudging can cost you more than you can imagine - in time, effort, and MONEY!
CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING PEOPLE WHEN MAKING YOUR PROSPECT LIST:
FRIENDS
NEIGHBORS RELATIVES
CHURCH MEMBERS
FELLOW EMPLOYEES
CLUB MEMBERS
PAST ASSOCIATES
CHRISTMAS CARD LIST
WEDDING INVITATION LIST
(if married)
THOSE YOU WENT TO SCHOOL WITH
(check yearbooks)
ANYONE YOU ADMIRE
(even if you don't know them well - they want money and security too.)
Begin calling as soon as you feel comfortable. Be sure to practice on your family members or upline (and tell them you are practicing.) If you aren't ready to do it by yourself, invite them to an opportunity meeting or use the videos.
NOTE: The more credible a person is, the faster their potential to grow! Sponsor the sharpest, most successful people you know or meet!
