Follow UpContact Your Leads and Build Your BusinessThe single most important thing you can do with your business is to follow up with your leads. When I first joined the healthy snack foods MLM I am involved with, I had already been a customer. I had ordered snacks retail twice, from two different people.
But
I signed up to become a distributor under someone else. Later, the two people I had order from retail approached me and asked me why I hadn't chosen them to sign up under. Well, the answer is quite simple: Because they never asked. Neither of those two people followed up with me to ask if I liked the product, if I wanted more information about the opportunity, or if I was ready to join. Neither one so much as said "thank you for your purchase". I fell in love with the product, and was ready to sign my name on the dotted line, but was never presented with the opportunity to do so. So instead, another distributor, in the right place at the right time, asked if I wanted to join, and I did. The rest is history. Follow up with each lead you get. If they ordered from you, ask if they received/liked their product. If they were interested in your opportunity, provide information and ask if they have any questions. Occasionally, when you are following up with someone via email, you will not get a response. --Maybe that person is uninterested in your message at this time --Maybe the mail servers did not send your message --Maybe the recipient accidentally deleted your message In any case, send another email to the person a few days later. Most people need to see a product or opportunity 3-8 times before they take action. If they do not reply again, try back in a couple weeks, then a couple months, then a year. Do not toss your leads until they either ask you to stop emailing them, or they are older than 2 years old. People's circumstances change. Maybe an opportunity that was not right for them one month, might end up being perfect another month. As your contact list grows, it will become more difficult to manage. What once was sending emails to a few dozen people, will soon turn into a few hundred. To manage your lists more efficiently, you should consider investing in a good AutoResponder Program. An important note on SPAM: SPAMMING someone is sending them unsolicited email. DO NOT spam people. If someone did not ask for information about your opportunity, do not keep sending them information. If they ask to be taken off of your list, then take them off of your list! |
