When you first start your network marketing business, you'll want to connect with those in your warm market first. Your warm market is anyone you know or anyone you've had some contact with in the past. Write down the names, phone numbers and email addresses of everyone you know who might be interested in your product or your network marketing opportunity.
You do not want to pre-judge these prospects, but you do want to pre-qualify them. In time, everyone should deserve the opportunity to at least see your product or be aware of your network marketing business - don't leave anyone you know off your list. They are the basis for the foundation of your network marketing organization.
A quick list of at least 20 people who are close to you or who you feel most confident in approaching should be the first names on your prospect list. You'll expand your list daily as you realize that everyone, young and old, white collar and blue collar, will all be open to hearing about your product and opportunity and may be interested in developing a second income.
You can literally reach people around with world with your network marketing business by contacting those you know, here and now. Physically write them down, and then look for opportunities to reconnect with them. Visualize them saying yes, then commit to guiding and assisting those who are interested in your business to the levels of success they desire.
A long-term, effective distribution network is built by building relationships, not by rules or policies or just playing the numbers. This will be your strength. Choose wisely with who you share your network marketing opportunity with, because you can only effectively help lead a few at a time into your business.
Contact people who are fun and those who you would enjoy building a business and sharing success with. The return on your investment will be determined by the value and potential you see in others.
Once you have a list of network marketing prospects, there are many ways to meet, qualify, and invite people to see and share your opportunity with. The world is full of people who have a need for your product and a desire for an additional stream of income.
By building your network marketing business, you will meet many others searching for a business opportunity. Be thoughtful, be attentive and be sensitive. Listen to people's needs and many doors will open for you.
An easy way to begin the process is to invite someone to a one-on-one meeting to share your product and show your business off. You can also invite them to attend a meeting in your area - the person hosting the meeting (usually someone who has been in the network marketing business awhile) will explain the product and business for you.
Often in the beginning, you'll want to meet prospects over a cup of coffee or just a casual appointment. Home meetings are an excellent way to expose them to your network marketing opportunity also. There's no reason to pay for the cost of a hotel meeting room, especially in the beginning stages of your business - network marketing is a home-based business, not a hotel-based business.
You should certainly qualify people prior to inviting them over. Have you heard of this product? Have you ever looked at ways of earning some additional income? Are you in a position to take advantage of an opportunity if one came your way? Do you ever look at ways to help others while earning a second income?
Be honest, upfront and sincere about your product and business when inviting people to see and hear about your product and network marketing opportunity. Your excitement, enthusiasm, belief and sincerity will come through, and they'll often be delighted and curious to see what you're involved with.
One simple way to get started is to invite people to your home by letting them know that a good friend and associate is going to share some information about your a product that is being taken to market through networking, and you can ask your sponsor or someone in your upline to present the opportunity in your home.
Whatever approach you use, keep in mind that your purpose for the initial contact is not to explain the network marketing business, rather it's to invite them to get together in order to check out your product and share in the opportunity. Clear the time and make sure they're available. Your sponsor should be able to give you some assistance in this area of effective qualifying.
Building a list of network marketing prospects can be fairly simple at first, but beyond the warm market you'll need to vary your approach and build a relationship prior to inviting them to see what your product and business is all about. Again, your sponsor is here to help you with building your list outside of those you know.
