For MLM Success Which is Best? A WARM List of Friends or an Internet Generated List of Marketers

Not long ago, a prospect called me and he was depressed and frustrated because his new network marketing business was not going well and, in fact, had left him friendless and avoided by members of his own family.

When I asked what he had been doing to cause all of this, he stated he had just been doing what his sponsor had instructed him to do. I almost could have told him his story. But I let him tell me how he had made a “warm list” of everyone he knew or was related to. How he’d called all of them and either invited them over for a home presentation, with hardly any of them showing up for, or went to see them to “place” some of the product with them.

He also told me about all of the promotional products he’d bought and the extra products for samples he’d and how he had written down his goals and his “why” and all of that stuff.

He stated the product was great and he couldn’t understand why all the people he knew would not even try his opportunity to make lots of money. That, in fact, a lot of his friends and even some of his family wouldn’t even answer his phone calls anymore.

As I said before, I almost could have told him his story. He was on the fast track to the NFL club. That does not stand for National Football League either, it means No Friends Left.

The ideal way to wind up in this club is to try all of these “old school ” MLM methods. It really is not your fault if you are in the club, just as it was not this man’s fault. It is only logical to wind up there when you use these methods to try to build your network marketing business.

If you get nothing else out of this article you need to comprehend this. If you wanted to build a football team, where would you look for members? Would you go down to the basketball court or to the closest construction site? Of course not! You would find football players that are looking for a team to get on.

Consider this! What kind of people would you want if you wanted to build a network marketing business? Uninterested in starting their own business- relatives? Football players? What about network marketers? Wouldn’t it make more sense to build a list of prospects that went looking on the web for solutions, found your site, and left their contact info for you?

By learning how to position yourself online with business opportunities and sites that offered solutions for network marketers, you can build a list of people who are interested in your product, service, or opportunity and not have to pester your uncle Bob or cousin ever again.

Why do not we check out some of the ways that a “warm list” and a generated on the internet list like my list differ

Warm list- Most likely you would have to go through 20 to 30 names before you found an entrepreneur and then it may be one that hates network marketing because of a failed attempt in the past using old school methods. My list- Almost all of them are working network marketers, but there could be a few that are not. Nobodies list is perfect.

Warm list- You have to ask every one very carefully before you’ll know if they’ve any interest in starting their own business-and most of them do not.

My list- Every one of them have some interest or they wouldn’t have found me on the internet and left their contact info for me which is how they got on the list.

Warm list- It is really a list of your personal contacts and they know you and probably know that you’re new to the business- this means they know you are still learning. It is limited by how many people you know.

My list- It is a list of people who went online and found me and therefore know that I’m at least knowledgeable enough to position myself as a leader on the web and solve some of their problems. It is limited by how many people go online searching for solutions.

Warm list- It is definitely going to dwindle down to the trickle of how many people you can personally meet in your each day life. And it probably started out at 200 to 400 names.

My list- Grows every day on autopilot by about 15 to 20 people and that number will go up as I learn and implement new strategies. By the way, those new names will be added to the 1500 name I was able to add to the list over the last 6 months.

Warm list- No way to stay out of the NFL club when you’re going after your friends.

My list- No way to get in the NFL club with this list. When you are helping these people with your marketing tools and resources, it is the opposite . They want to hear more from you.

Many people who are industry leaders will tell you that the money is in the list. These list building techniques are so different it is nearly laughable that anyone even still uses those “old school” methods.

If you want to attract experienced network marketers into your business and have a place online for those who are looking for a new business opportunity, you need to wake up to the Age of Technology and put some of the most modern tools known to man to work for you.
