How to Double Your Network Marketing Prospecting Success Rate

When it comes to prospecting, it’s very common for network marketing representatives to first approach their friends. In fact, they often try to gather a group of friends and try to prospect to them on a large, grand scale. Instead of doing it alone, it’s very recommended to do it as a team effort.

A good example of working together as a team is with your spouse or significant other.

The reason being, it establishes more credibility due to more dedication involved in the business and both parties are already involved. Imagine a couple doing prospecting together versus a single, lonely person trying to prospect - it brings across many advantages immediately.

Men and women have different perspective when it comes to network marketing, so it’s much better to have both the male and female perspective. Men tend to want to talk about the business side of things and how more potential profits can be made. Also, men are generally perceived as the one that has the authority and know-how of the business, so it brings across a stronger side.

When women are talking business, they tend to relate to the prospect through the use of the products, the benefits and the services provided. Thus, providing a more wholesome and real experience to the prospect. Of course, women can also talk about business… a woman can come across as strong, firm, powerful. Yet, a woman can also display strength and firmness and at the same time, be soft and delicate - both styles are very advantageous.

Men and women just have different ways of looking at things and this type of teaming up is especially effective when dealing with couples. Men can talk with men, women can talk with women. The key to succeeding with this type of team up is to learn how to examine the situation and not to have clashes with each other when prospecting.

If you don’t have a partner, you can always team up with your upline or a fellow network marketing representative. If both you and your upline know the same person (also known as a mutual friend), you can make use of something called social leverage to convince the friend to sign up. It’s like saying “Hey, everybody’s already in it… how about you?” For your upline, if he is someone who has already established a certain level of credibility in the business and is well respected, this works great and is to your advantage because he has the skills and knowledge to deal with various situations and to guide you along.

It’s important to take note that network marketing should not be done as a one man mission. True, network marketing can be done alone but it’s a business that works better when done in a team. Think about this, how many times have people been approached by a single network marketing representative who worked alone? How often have have people been approached by a tag team?

Network marketing should never be done alone - it’s a business that puts you in business for yourself but most assuredly, you shouldn’t be working by yourself. Work together with others. Going solo is dangerous because if you start building up a network marketing empire by doing it alone, what would happen if your team was made up of individuals who copy your style and they start doing prospecting by themselves? Can you expect to be of the same level or perhaps, better than you?

It’s common knowledge that most network marketers fail because they try to do it themselves and have had no support and teamwork.

Therefore, isn’t it a smarter choice to have your network be based on a team building theme? Learn to share the load and learn to support each other. In the process, your team can also learn how to be better people. Especially for the downlines, they’re going to need all the help they can get. Have your business in a team and when you need help, someone’s there. When someone needs help, you can be there - everyone wins.
