WHY YOU SHOULD SHOP FOR A SPONSOR
Copyright 2008, MLM Coach Training Center
Have you ever been signed up by someone, and then you never heard from the person again? You were a victim of a “sales recruiter”. This is a common method of people who think they are in “sales”. The problem is that you are not in “sales”, you are looking for a business partner. And you don’t sell or “close” on people to get a business partner.
Are you a sales recruiter? Or are you a real sponsor? There is a huge difference. A sales recruiter is effective at “signing up” people, and then moving on to “sign up” others. The sales recruiter seems to be in a frantic search to sign up people. The sales recruiter believes in “love ‘em and leave ‘em. The real sponsor has a different attitude. He believes that any person worth sponsoring is worth developing. The real sponsor believes in working with people AFTER they enroll. The sales recruiter just wants to make a sale, and then move on to the next “victim”.
Being a real sponsor is an ongoing, continuing activity. It is this continuing activity that creates loyalty to the sponsor, and gives the sponsor serious credibility. The sales recruiter is a traveling salesman; once he has sold you, he is gone. The real sponsor is a helper/teacher who wants you to have the training and tools you need to be successful, and the encouragement to keep plugging.
The sponsor’s job begins when you enroll; the sales recruiter’s job ENDS when you enroll. The goal of the sales recruiter is to sign up people. The goal of the sponsor is to train and develop leaders.
Questions to ask about the person who is seeking to sign you up:
1. Is this person trying to sponsor me or sell me?
2. Is this person a sales recruiter or a real sponsor?
3. Will this person be there for me AFTER I sign up?
4. Will this person give me free leads or am I expected to chase after my friends and family?
5. Does this person have a Business Building System for me to use?
6. Does this person have an ONLINE System?
7. What kind of Training will I receive?
