Does GOING THROUGH THE NUMBERS guarantee that you will sponsor new people? If your business teaches you to call 50-100 people a day or shake hands with strangers, getting their phone numbers and then pitching them your opportunity one after another, AND, if this system is working out fine for you and your group, then DON’T CHANGE what you are doing.
But if you are looking for something else then we should explore why coldcalling strangers is not effective.(1) You can’t sell. Even if you can, NOT ALL of your downline can sell like you.
(2) People don’t like being sold to! Do you like door-to-door salesmen? (Even if you are a door-to-door salesman, you won’t like them coming to your house).
(3) Cold calling strangers cause the one on the receiving end to bring up their defenses because they don’t know you and they cannot see your face.
(4) If you are a stranger, they might not buy from you because they will think you are trying to get into their pocket.
(5) Cold calling requires posture which is something the prospect has the right to say NO to you and control the flow of the conversation.
If those reasons are not enough, think about your phone bill. Do you expect all your downlines to achieve success this way?
It is true that not all will buy from you even after you have done the perfect presentation. We all know that ‘some will, some won’t, so what?’ But what if we can filter those who won’t out, and focus on those who will?
Don’t you think it will save you lots of time and money? Wouldn’t you rather work with those who are willing to work rather than waste your time with those who aren’t willing?
