Be INTERESTED not INTERESTING
I
want to talk about being interested instead of being interesting.
A lot of
people when it comes to building the network marketing business, they awfully
try to be interesting. They try to show themselves off, they try to show their
money, they try to show different things, and they try to be so interesting
people. They think that that's what's going to attract more and more businesses
to them.
Don’t
get me wrong, if you take some photos in front of Ferrari, some people might
get hooked on that, and some people might join your business. But really, the
key to big long term success in your business is to be interested, instead of
interesting, is to be interested in other people, is to find out more about
them is to ask more questions, is to learn more, whether that's your potential
customer, whether that's your potential team member, whether that's an existing
team member. Too many of us, we just try to talk and talk and talk and talk and
talk and just push our agenda onto other people.
But if you really find out,
what does this person want, what are their goals? What did they dream about? Then
you can talk to them, then you have something to work on. Because if you know
nothing about that person is so difficult to motivate them, it's so difficult
to influence them to buy something from you, it's so difficult to influence
them to do something in your business because you don't care about them. You
don't know anything about them. You just you just want them to know about you and
your goals.
I'm
not trying to sound horrible, and maybe that's not you, but is to be a
listener, instead of a speaker, is to hear that person out. Because very often,
the person will give you all the answers, the person will give you all the
necessary information to recruit them into your business or to sell to them, if
you just listen to them, if you just ask questions. Always ask open ended
questions. Not the questions that a person can answer with yes or no but ask
open ended questions, where a person has to talk. They have to open up, they
have to tell you more things about themselves.
Why is it that you're looking
for an extra income right now? What type of goals and dreams do you have? Where
do you see yourself for the next five to 10 years? What would you like to
achieve? Do you have a plan to achieve that? Is your job going to allow you to
reach those dreams and those goals and those ambitions? If not, then what's
your plan? What's your options? Would you be prepared to put in the work and
time and effort into reaching those goals and dreams and those ambitions, and
really getting deeper and trying and understanding the person while at the same
time helping them to understand how you can help them.
Too
many of us are trying to convince people to join a business or to buy a
product. But you almost should be like a company owner that's hiring somebody
for a job. If you are hiring somebody for a job and going to be paying them
salary, are you want to try convince them to take the job? No, you want to get
convinced that they are the right person to join your business. You will be
asking them a bunch of questions and you want to be convinced that is the right
person to hire.
But don't we do a complete opposite in network marketing very
often, we try to convince people how amazing our company is, how amazing our
team is, how amazing our product is, and almost beg them to join our business.
Wouldn't it be more effective to try to be convinced by that person that they
are the right person for your team, that they're the right person for you to
invest your time and effort over the next months and years? Because you will be
investing your time and effort to train that person, to teach them and help
them. If they're not the right person, why take them into your team? Why hire
them? Don’t try to be interesting, try to be interested.
Don't
try to convince people, try to be convinced that they are the right person for
your team. Make it harder for them to join your business. Like no, don't make
it hard, but you know what I mean? Ask them questions. Get them to sell
themselves to you. And the only way you can do that is by asking the questions.
Why do you think you could do well in this business? Why do you think this
would be the right business opportunity for you? Why do you think you could
work with this product? And get them to tell you why they would be great at
selling your product, get them to tell you why they would be great for your
business and for your team. Different perspective, isn't it?
