When Prospects Give You Excuses…
My good friend and mentor wrote this blog post. I thought it was so relevant that I’m reposting it. Ferny closes with the power of Attraction Marketing. I have been using this strategy for several years and It Works.
My days of asking people to join my business is now gone. I simply “Invite interested people to take a look at what Attraction Marketing is about and let them make up their minds.” Even if they don’t join me, many find that they can use Attraction Marketing in their own MLM business, their own brick and mortar business, and in their own lives.
I now have people calling me asking for more. I went from working almost around-the-clock trying to grow my work at home business, to working 4 days a week and maybe 5 hours a day. What a difference this program made in my life and could in yours.
Finally, if your in network marketing this is a great program. If your looking to get involved in this great business, this is the program you need. And if your just looking to make some extra income, this is a program you can get your hands on and promote.
Now here is Ferny….
Give me a “Yeah!” if you are absolutely sick and tired of hearing the following excuses:
“It sounds great, but I just don’t have enough money to get started.”
“I don’t have enough time.”
“Is this some pyramid scheme?”
“I can’t sell.”
“I don’t want to give you my social security or credit card info.”
“I’m not a people person.”
“This just isn’t my thing.”
“But what about this other company that sells the same stuff cheaper?”
“I’ll have to ask my wife/husband before I join.”
“I’ll need to pray about it.”
“Let me think about it and I’ll call you next week.”
“How much does it cost to join?”
“Do I have to buy product every month!?”
“I don’t like to recruit people.”
Seriously, stab me in the ear with a Q-tip!
Aaahhhh!!!
Now I have a question for you…
What do you do when these statements are made?
Have you purchased books or courses on answering objections so you can turn the situation around?
Have you attended conference calls each week so you can learn how your sponsor masterfully counters each excuse?
If you have, good for you.
I respect your work ethic and commitment.
But I want to tell you a secret, which no one has probably ever revealed to you…
Here it is…
You DO NOT Have to Deal With These Excuse!
Seriously!
I never deal with ignorant questions and excuses like the ones above anymore. I’m looking for decision maker.
(“People who sees an opportunity and acts. People who are willing to take a risk and act. People who are Entrepreneurs.
People who want more than Excuses.” Thats me injecting my thoughts. I have alway been an Entrepreneur, taking risk and act on an opportunity.
Did it alway work out? No, but I acted. I learned. I moved on and succeeded. Will I make future mistakes…of course. But each time I learn.“)
Now Back To Ferny…
And when I discovered that truth, my business absolutely exploded over night. (Mine to…)
How you ask?
How do I get away with such ‘sacrilegious’ behavior?
It’s easy…
I only market to, and recruit, people already involved in network marketing, direct sales or related industries.
I only talk to people who know what the rules of the game are.
Who already know what’s required to succeed in network marketing.
Who understand what autoship is, and why it’s so important.
Who already understand the value of investing in training, books, and attending live events.
(Who already knows the value of Mentorship and Coaching…..Again that’s me offering how Attraction Marketing works.)
In short, you never have to put up with excuses when you deal with people who are not looking to make them.
However, this idea is not something that’s new to the industry.
Recruiting other networkers is as old as the industry itself.
In fact, you’ve probably observed leaders jump from one company to another and bringing in a large following with them.
That being said, there’s a RIGHT WAY and WRONG WAY to do this…
I was at an event recently called The 6-Figure Summit this past October with over 200 hundred top earners in various companies.
Supposedly, the event was a ‘No Recruiting Zone,’ but let me tell ya, at the bars… it was a bit of a feeding frenzy!
I witnessed firsthand the seduction tactics where some of the 7-figure earners, literally couldn’t take a walk in peace, without being prospected by some slick, greasy-haired networker in a cheap suit.
I mean, seriously!
You’re using prospecting techniques on people who are also skilled prospectors.
It was pretty bad.
The Fastest and Easiest Way to Build a Business is to Recruit Other Networkers, But…
I think most old school networkers have it wrong on HOW to actually find and recruit other networkers, because they are just applying ‘old school,’ ineffective prospecting tactics on leaders that don’t want to be bothered and already know what you are trying to pull.
But a few are doing it right.
Have you noticed some of the recent Facebook Ads, from big time networkers?
Leaders are catching on and so should you.
Personally…
I’m done prospecting strangers or friends or anyone else.
I’m done making 100-200 cold calls.
I’m done driving to hotel meetings or holding home meetings.
And don’t even get me started on the royal waste of time 1-on-1 at Starbucks can be…
I’m a stubborn and I just won’t do it anymore!
(Here I’m again. I look for people who are curious about network marketing and how it can change their lives. I kook for people who are struggling with their network marketing business and offer help and advice. I am looking for people who want more than just a JOB, who wants to start a home based business either part-time or full-time and knows that excuses is not the way to approach a business or business opportunity. I am looking for that Entrepreneur. Back to Ferny)
Back in 2006, when I was burned out on the old school recruiting methods, I knew there had to be a better way to build a business, and I found it.
It’s called Attraction Marketing and it’s about learning how to use the Internet in a way that literally brings your customers, prospects, and other leaders to YOU, without having to be a skilled closer or prospector.
How would your business change if people contacted you every single day? (And they will….me again)
And these aren’t just ‘any’ people.
These are active networkers, struggling networkers, people who want a network marketing business…calling YOU! With No Excuses!!
(Networkers of all stripes in fact – newbies, veterans, and leaders alike!)
Would it completely change your career?
Your life?
Your enthusiasm and devotion to this great industry?
Would it grant you a new lease on your drive to achieve the level of success you have been working so hard for?
It’s not hard.
It’s just that no one’s bothered to show you how to do it yet.
You can free yourself from objections, excuses, and the people who make them – permanently.
For goodness sake, stop wasting your time and your money on these whiners!
Stop cold calling people to pitch your business.
Do you think millionaires and billionaires sit in their offices all day making dials to a list of 20,000 potential customers??
Of course not.
Learn their secret.
Start working with other professionals already in this industry, who are positive about what you are involved in.
It’s just like in any business.
Marketing 101: market what you offer to people whom are already using a similar product.
This is how this how successful networkers really build their businesses in this industry, especially now in the 21st century, so if you want results like theirs, I recommend you do the same.
If you’re not sure how to go about it, you should consider signing up for my 100% Free 10-Day Online Recruiting Bootcamp, because that’s exactly what it will teach you how to do.
Attract other professional networkers to you, without having to make a ton of cold calls everyday.
I’ll even show you how I get the people I don’t recruit or even join my downline, to pay me hundreds of thousands of dollars per year.
It’s a pretty neat trick, if you allow me to show you.
Regardless of what path you choose, I hope you give it 110% and I do wish you well.

Here’s what I do When Prospects Gives Me Excuses …. “I thank them for their time and move on. Or, if it is a phone call and I am getting dumb excuses, I thank them and tell them that they did not meet the “qualifications” for what I have to offer and what I expect leaders to offer and politely hang up.” Bold? Yes, but it has saved me a ton of time trying to help people who don’t want to be helped. It has save me a lot of grief with people who are satisfied with just being okay with their situation.
So what do you do “When Prospects Give You Excuses”…”thank them and move on.” There are a lot more people looking for you than you can imagine.
Cheers,
