Handling the Pyramid Objection

So many people are afraid of Network Marketing because they just don't understand it. They've been trained by society to think that it's bad or a scam. If you explain to them that all companies are pyramids, they might just "get it". Every corporation is a pyramid in one way or another. The company President makes more than the Vice-President, who makes more than the Manager, who makes more than the Supervisor, who makes more than the work force. Why? Because as you move up the corporate ladder, you have to bring certain things to the table. You have to know what you are doing. You have to be able to get the job done. You have to be able to train those that work for you. And so on. Try explaining the pyramid objections with the steps below and see what happens.

Step 1:
When a pyramid objection comes up, ask your prospect to think about a typical business where there is a sales rep and a sales manager. Like car sales, or insurance sales. Draw a picture showing only one sales manager (make him the color blue) with sales reps working for him. Make sure you make the statement, “The manager is only valuable to the sales reps if they have experience selling what they’re asking the sales reps to sell.” Then ask, “Does this make sense to you?” Or “Do you agree with this?” It’s very important to get them involved in this discussion.

Step 2:
Once they are involved with the discussion, I normally probe a little with “Does the sales manager normally make a little more money than the sales reps?” Which most people will answer “yes”. I then ask, “Is what I’ve just drawn a pyramid because sales reps work under a sales manager? Is it a pyramid because the sales manager makes a commission off what the sales reps sell?” This is where the discussion normally opens up. Try to keep them on just answering what has been discussed up to this point. Meaning, if they try to take it further and ask or say something else, reply with, “We’ll get to that…right now just tell me if this is a pyramid.” After that is settled, then move on.

Step 3:
Ask them, “What happens when there are more sales reps than the manager can handle?” What you’re leading them to answer is, “The company needs to hire another sales manager.” Then you can say, “Good! Where can the company get this new sales manager from?” You are trying to guide the prospect to see that either the company can hire a new person from Monster(dot)com (or wherever) or they can take one of the existing sales reps and make them a manager.

Guide them towards seeing that the better way would be to take an existing sales rep and make them a manager because they are already knowledgeable on how to sell that product. If they were to hire a new person they would have to educate that person on the products and the way the company operates. But, that new person wouldn’t have the respect of the sales force because “He’s never done it!”

But if they take an existing sales rep and make him a manager - he would know the product, know the way the business and company operates and would have the respect of the sales reps. But regardless of which place the company chooses to get this new manager, you’ve now added a new manager. Now draw another manager (beside and to the right of the first manager -- the blue guy in Step 1) with sales reps below him.

Step 4:
Then ask, “This is the way that most companies grow their sales force. Does this make sense?” Get their agreement. Then label the top of the picture “Multi-Width-Marketing.” Then say, “Multi means more than one. Width means that it grows laterally and marketing means that they are all marketing the product. Make sense? Any questions on this?”

Once all of this is settled in their mind - then move forward. DO NOT MOVE FORWARD UNTIL THEY UNDERSTAND UP TO THIS POINT. There can not be any confusion AT ALL.

Step 5:
Then say, “Let’s just take the same picture and draw it a little differently”. Circle the man in blue and his sales reps and say, “I’m going to draw this sales manager again.” Draw it on your paper. Then say, “Instead of hiring a new manager from Monster(dot)com we’re going to take a person who already knows the product, the company and the business and make them our new sales manager. Since it will be one of these sales reps, I’m just going to keep the drawing the same by drawing a new sales rep under them.”

You don’t need to draw 3 levels to make the point. So just draw two levels to begin with. Then, label level 1 and level 2. Then write at the top “Multi-level Marketing and say, “Multi meaning more than one, level meaning growing vertically and marketing meaning that everyone is marketing the product." This should give you the basics of how to handle this objection once and for all.

Remember, the sales rep should make a bigger commission than the sales manager on each individual sale. Explain this to your prospect. Maybe your company pays a 35% commission on all sales made by the sales rep... which lets your prospect know that they are making a pretty good commission on every sale.... but the manager would make only 4% of that, or maybe just 4% of the difference between the retail price and the 35%. This lets your prospect see that even though someone else is making money from the efforts of their sales, they will see that this amount is very small compared to what they are making. Good "managers" should be holding training calls and role playing sessions, crafting presentations for their downlines to send their prospects to, and holding meetings to announce company news and product offerings. They should also be actively trying to sell the products or services that their organization provides.

Fresh Leads Versus Aged Leads- The Verdict Is Still Out

You are excited! You just started up your networking business and you are ready to launch your business to the world by purchasing a list of leads of people that are hopefully just as excited about a life without financial woes and time freedom as you are and then it hits you…$4.00 a lead. Ouch!

You quickly calculate that it will cost you $400 to hopefully be able to talk to 100 people about your business. Ouch again!

Are these $4.00 leads worth the price? This is where the age-old debate of quality versus quantity begins.

Any industry veteran will tell you, the secret to being successful in networking is not selling people on your opportunity, rather it is sorting through enough people to find those right people for your opportunity. It is quite simple really. The more people you talk to, the more people you will find that are right for your business.

This is especially important when you are first starting out. It takes time, practice, and patience to earn the confidence that will be necessary to increase the number of people that are attracted to you.

Yes, I said attracted to you. Most often a prospect will be willing to join your company because they have connected with you and feel that you are the one that can help them become successful.

However, unless you are natural born leader with an instant knack for the phone, you might have to stumble through a few hundred calls before you get enough practice with your script to come across as confident and comfortable.

So what is the solution? Most likely, these same leads that are being sold for $4.00 as a live lead or phone interviewed lead will be sold again as an aged lead for a fraction of the cost. If you look around you’ll see them called aged leads, 7-14 day old, etc. Yes they have been contacted once, twice, or more, before you receive them, however for the fraction of the cost they can fit into anyone’s budget.

There are two main things you need to keep in mind:
1) Not every opportunity is right for everyone.
2) Not everyone is as charming as you!

Even if other people have called these leads before you, the opportunities they are representing may not have been a right fit for them. Or perhaps they may not have felt comfortable with the other people. When you first chose the company you are with now, did you look around first to see what your options were before joining? Most prospects will often want to evaluate different opportunities before making their life changing decision.

So are $4.00 leads worth it? Absolutely! But only after you are ready for them, so you can make the best of them.

But until then, why not start off with a lead that began as a high quality or premium lead that is aged slightly so that you can purchase substantially more. Remember, it’s about finding quality people, and the more people you talk to, the more quickly you will find them. The right people will be receptive to you, whether they filled out a form today, or a week ago.

As you get more experience and practice. Start combining the higher quality or fresher leads with your aged leads to experience both. You will figure out what balance of leads will work best for you and your budget.

Parting Tip: As you get better, your leads will get better, regardless of the age or quality of the lead.

Is an Exclusive Lead truly an Exclusive Lead?

Does an Exclusive Lead mean that you are truly the only person receiving that lead?

The hopeful answer is: Sometimes!

The reality is: Probably Not.

Let’s take a look at the many definitions or common categories that an Exclusive Lead can fall into:

Often times “Exclusive” means that you are only person in your particular company to receive that lead, but you still share the lead with several other people from competing companies.

Other times “Exclusive” means that your leads are exclusive for a short amount of time such as 3-7 days. After this timeframe, the Leads are sold several more times, often averaging 5-7 times.

Is it wrong for companies to do this? Absolutely not! Unless of course you are willing to spend 3 or 4 times the cost of the lead to truly get the exclusive rights to it. By selling a lead multiple times, it is the most cost effective way for a lead company to be able to get fresh leads into your hands at a price you can afford. It is only wrong if a lead company does not properly represent what you are purchasing.

Another variable you should keep in mind is that often, when people are looking for an income opportunity online, your prospect may not have just responded to one advertisement or filled out one form requesting information about a home business.

Many times people fill out multiple forms so they can compare different opportunities. You might have 3 different people thinking they have just purchased an “exclusive” lead only to find out later that the same person filled out 3 separate forms which went to 3 different people.

Did you compare different opportunities before you decided your current company was the right fit for you?

Just because you are not the only person contacting a lead, does not mean you will not have success. What it really boils down to is sorting through your lead list looking for the right people for your opportunity.

Not every opportunity if right for everyone. You might have just the opportunity they are looking for and you only spent .20 cents on the same lead that cost someone else who called them a week before you $4.00 or more.

Leads Can Be a Powerful Way to Build Your Business

Leads can also be a powerful way to build a business if you’re in a remote, rural area; house-bound; living out of the country, but with computer access; if your only free hours are in the middle of the night. . . You get the idea.

This won't be as expensive as you think it might be, because I'm going to tell you not to get a whole lot. The days are gone when you can buys lots of inexpensive leads, plug them into an email AutoResponder system and have them blast out to people. SPAM regulations mean it is no longer possible to just upload a huge list of people into a system and start sending emails. Most of them require that the system sends out a confirmation email to make sure the person actually requested to receive emails from you.

So what do you do? You buy quality leads that you will be able to call or send an E-card to in a quick period of time to take advantage of their freshness. That might be 25 or 50; it might be 100. Don’t get so many you can’t work with them efficiently. You can always order more.

You may also want to go together with some people on your team and order some. Even people who are terrified of the phone can use www.SendOutCards.com/17679 to succeed with leads!

So how do you find the best leads? We’re not going to recommend one company over the other. There are many good ones. Try several, and you be the judge! To start - you can do an online search for: MLM Leads

I am including an article here that was written by Doug Firebaugh. He gives some great information and this will be a good place for you to begin your research!

______________________________________________

MLM Leads. . . That is a sound of music to my ears. Why? I worked MLM Leads for nearly 8 years, and had great success with them. That is why I have a pretty good understanding of what really makes a good MLM Lead, and what does not.

In the pursuit of finding these top 15 Network Marketing Lead companies, there were some requirements and considerations that went into the mix. An MLM lead is only part of the MLM Lead Success Formula. There were 5 things that we looked at when we were considering MLM Lead Companies.

What are they?

1) Quality of the MLM lead.

Quality of lead is everything. There are some great looking websites out there that look totally rocking, but we found that the quality of leads when we called them, were less than what you should expect in an MLM lead.

Beautiful site, great looking logo, lousy leads.

That is why we actually had people order leads, and we called them. We called more than one bunch of leads as well. This at least would give us a feeling of consistency or lack of it. The MLM Lead companies we chose were highly consistent in quality of lead, and people who truly were looking for a business. It took us 7 months to complete the research on MLM leads.

2) Training of working the MLM Leads.

Many of the beautiful sites offered no type of ongoing training, and that was something that really needs to be a part of any good MLM leads programs. There were some that had online training, as well as CDs and training series you could purchase. That was good, but the ongoing live training was the best idea, and we found many MLM leads Companies that did just that.

Training also includes scripts, handling objections, presentation, following up, closing, and other MLM leads topics. There are some HOT MLM leads sites out there that truly delivered on this quality of MLM leads training.

3) MLM Leads Support.

The support factor was key. Once the MLM leads were purchased, was there somehow support in case of need? Most had email support, some had live phone support, and some had live instant message support. There were sites that offered no support, and if you had a challenge with your MLM leads, then good luck.

The support should be somehow resolving issues that arise, including bad MLM leads, wrong numbers or emails, and general problems. The MLM Leads companies we found that were the best, had a support system. And some type of guarantee also should be part of the network marketing lead program.

4) Targeted MLM leads.

Many companies had different types of targeted MLM leads, including company specific, live TV leads, local leads, gender specific, product specific, area code specific, among others. Targeted MLM leads are the favorite of the Networkers I talked to, as it gives people a more focused lead, and a more targeted impact.

5) Pricing of the MLM leads.

This was a huge factor in determining many people''s decision to buy. But to be blunt, you get what you pay for. There are many cheap network marketing home business lead companies with cheap leads, but here is a warning:

Be careful. You get what you pay for.

Ask if you can try maybe 15-20 leads to see if they are worth the money. Many companies give free network marketing leads away to try.

Understand that a great MLM lead may cost you several dollars, and rightfully so.

INFERNO Secret:

An MLM lead purchase is NOT a purchase, but an investment in your business. One good MLM lead can produce tens of thousands of dollars in volume and revenues. If you understand that, then the pricing should not be as important as the quality and training of the Network marketing lead company.

And of course, REPUTATION had a lot to do with the selection as well. Some companies that came across really well, when checked on, did not have a very good reputation for MLM Leads and service.

Soooooo:

What are the Top 15 MLM lead Companies? (They are in no particular order, as all are really good as far as our research would tell us.)

Do your OWN DUE DILIGENCE before you purchase, but these we found are pretty strong as all scored well in the above areas of requirement.

The Five Components That Must Exist To Generate A Mind Blowing 6 Figure Monthly Income

These components are not optional:

1. To effectively position yourself you must become the expert. Now, I don’t just mean that you need to study your products and comp plan, but you also have to be an expert in understanding your audience. What are their needs, wants and desires? What will motivate them to get involved with your business? What solutions (for their problems) can you provide for them? Who is your target audience? If you’re marketing health and wellness, why would you be pitching a 22-year-old college student? Even if he/she did sign up, they’ll be dropping in a few short months because they never had an attachment to the product. Look at the biggest business builders in your company. They’re emotionally attached to the product. They used it and saw results. That’s how it should be! Be conscious of who your ideal target market happens to be. This will provide you with a better understanding of how you can best get exposed to them.

2. Use techniques that will enable you to get exposure of your products and services to the masses! Why is it that conference lines for sales calls have really just taken off over the past year or 2? We’ve used them for years. They should be a requirement for any business owner. They’re cheap. And more importantly, when used correctly, you can get yourself in front of a lot of people that truly have a want, need and desire for what you possess.

3. Phone mastery. If you’re looking to grow a business to heights you can’t even imagine the phone must be your friend. One of your best friends. Can you imagine speaking with prospects that have already displayed a want and desire for your products every single day? This is a crucial element that’s required for success. When you have prospects that WANT to speak with you and have already displayed an interest in what you have, growing a business becomes child’s play. How many people per day do you think would join you in business if you were just speaking with 10 prospects a day that needed or desired something you have? Let’s assume only 2 of those people. That’s 10 new associates per week into your business! Now, it’s starting to come together and we haven’t even shared the other 2 explosive goodies with you yet.

4. Internet mastery. The Internet is an explosive tool. It’s absolutely incredible, but just like any other tool you have in your garage, one must know how to properly use it. Having a website just isn’t enough. You need to know what to have on it, where to put what and how to tap into the mind of your prospect. Furthermore, one must know how to get targeted visitors to the website that already want and need what you have. Once this is mastered, this tool becomes so powerful words can’t depict. The Internet is one of the main components that have allowed us to generate millions and millions of dollars in a very short time span.

5. Mastery of the written word. How would you like to enroll associates into your business without ever speaking with them? What if you could write a sales letter from top to bottom that put people into your business whether you were sleeping or golfing? Would that have a dramatic impact on your business? Absolutely. This is such an explosive tool that we’ve learned to master over the years it’s actually frightening. There are some companies where all they do is send sales letters pitching various products that generate hundreds of millions of dollars every single year. What would it be like to log into your administration area in the morning to see that your business grew by 7 people while you were sleeping? By mastering the written word and using copy to create salivating messages you too can grow a million dollar business inside of 12 months.

Your MLM Business and MLM Leads

Leads are the lifeline of your business. Especially in network marketing. The last thing you want to be doing is running around chasing your friends and family all over the place and buying everyone dinner just to listen to your opportunity. When you're growing an MLM business, it's important to recognize why it's so critical to lead with the product...not the opportunity.

Here's why:

In the world of network marketing and MLM many people get turned off or cringe every time they hear that phrase. It's because we've been so filled up with lies, half truths and misleading statements for years. The only thing we ever hear about in this industry is how easy it is to get rich and make tons of money. The sad thing is only 2% of all network marketers ever make a nickle. That's a pretty sad statistic.

Network marketing is just a distribution channel. You become the distributor. People, like you and I, become basically the marketing arm of the company. We're now responsible to move product. We're no different than a WalMart or Target, only we don't have to have a gigantic overhead and massive amount of inventory or personnel working for us. If we're just the marketing arm for the company essentially shouldn't we worry about consumption of the product first? Shouldn't we have as many people as possible consuming our product every month, week or day? The more consumption that takes place that fatter our wallet gets, at least we're doing it ethically and morally and didn't promise someone else the world at the same time. If you're truly passionate about your product and believe in what you have, then this is the only way to truly build a long term residual income home based business.

I LOVE this industry! It truly is the greatest industry on the face of the planet where the average, every day person can make an abundance of wealth while helping others at the same time.

I encourage you, against the grain, to STOP leading with the opportunity.

Even if you do get others into your business that are there because of greed, there's ALWAYS going to be a better, high paying opportunity out there. Be passionate about your products and services. It shines through during your presentation. It also leads to a much higher retention rate and higher monthly product orders. And you'll find just as many people that fall in love with the product because they experienced results and they choose to market it. They become your BEST marketers and they're doing it for all the right reasons.

Do you think a boatshop owner owns a boatshop because he loves boats? Absolutely.

Was Bill Gates persistent because he loves computers?

You get the idea...

Now, let's talk about MLM Leads and it will make sense why I chatted about the relevance of leading with the products you're marketing.

The best lead you can possibly buy has NOTHING to do with opportunity seekers. It's all about PRODUCT BUYERS.

Here's what I mean. If you're marketing internet protection, wouldn't it make sense to speak with people that have recently purchased a home computer, but have no protection on it?

If you're marketing network marketing training with a compensation plan attached to it, doesn't it make sense to speak with MLM'ers that are struggling with their home based business?

If you're marketing a product that reduces the signs of aging doesn't it just make sense to market your product to the segment of the population that's consistently purchasing skin care or wrinkle reducing products?

Not just "Yes", but a resounding, screaming..."Heck Yeah!"

They're dirt cheap too!




Here's a few places to take a peek at for viable leads to promote your products and services:

1. www.tlclists.com

2. www.wholesalelists.com

3. www.martinworldwide.net

4. www.usadata.com

5. www.centurylist.com

These are a few places to get started with. Remember, lead brokers are in the business of making money too! Ask questions like:

How was this list compiled?

How old is the data?

Is it a monthly 'hotline' file or is this a one shot deal?

How large is the file?

What is your policy for disconnected or wrong telephone numbers?

Best of luck to ya!
