MLM Lead Generation Will Expose Your Greatest Fear

There is one fear that you could have and if you don’t control it, it will crush your chances of success in business entirely! Before I tell you what that fear is I’m going to share with you a little bit of personal history.

Had The Background But Lacking Something…..

When I got involved in marketing on a more serious level I was in my 40s and I had a number of years of management experience, a college diploma and 22 years plus in the martial arts and six years in car sales. I’m telling you this so that you understand that I had a very rounded experience base to enter into marketing. Oddly enough I found myself very anxious getting on the phone and calling people that I knew to share my new business with.

Part of my anxiety centered on the possibility of me making oversights in explaining the services that my company had. Over the years I had become quite competent in my vocation and now being involved in marketing required me to step outside of what was comfortable and safe. I also believe that part of my anxiety may have been the result of my preoccupation with what other people thought of my being involved in a network marketing business.

To compensate for my first concern I devoted a lot of time to memorizing the content that my company provided on their services. Over a fairly short period of time I lost any concern that I may have had about what other people thought as a result of my new associations with a lot of very wealthy people.

The two concerns that I had that were in my opinion the most crippling however, was the fear of failure and my second one was rejection. It was far easier to sit and stare at the phone then to pick it up and call a prospect. My thinking was – if I call them and they say no to my business opportunity pitch, I’ll feel bad and if they are rude to me, their rejection will make me feel bad. Over the past 13 years I have found that these are the two major fears that crush over 90% of new entrepreneur’s chances for success.

We Love Head Games

It’s almost funny how we come up with all sorts of logical reasons why we did not do what we were supposed to do. We let any number of activities that could have easily been deferred to a later time become a priority in our day. At the end of the week we look at the results we’ve got and say that we did not have time to make the calls. In truth we had 24 hours in each day or 168 hours in the week and even after subtracting 56 hours of sleep we are still left with 112 hours. The problem was not a lack of time the problem was a lack of prioritizing.

Our lack of prioritizing was not the result of bad personal time management, but rather the result of what we unconsciously believed would make us feel better.

“Avoid the Pain Feel Okay.”

The problem with this strategy is that until we face our fear head on we can never achieve our greatest potential. Everything that we want is outside of our comfort zone. Take a look at your results for the week-did you face your fears? My recommendation is that you become honest with yourself, stop avoiding the truth and take action by working through your fear. Use the Michael Jordan philosophy “Just Do It ”. Mike Littman says “You Don’t Have To Get It Right You Just Have To Get It Going. ”

You Have Leads Now What?

While MLM lead generation is not difficult though, taking the next step and following up with your leads will determine your ultimate success. Success in marketing is a numbers game it is not a surgical process. It would be awesome if you could just sign-up three people who see the opportunity for what it is and make you a millionaire. In the real world that simply does not happen, and you need to get honest with yourself and understand that you’re going to have to commit to your business for the next five years no matter what. Oh one other thing, it’s going to be hard, with tons of frustration and disappointment and yet with your commitment and perseverance you will fail your way to success.

Make a habit of doing at least two to five presentations per day if you’re working your business part-time and five to ten presentations per day if you’re working your business full-time. When you start running these kind of numbers your fear of rejection and failure will disappear because you’re focusing on the task and not on the individual. You must have so many people to talk to that you don’t have time to become emotionally attached to someone who quits or rejects your business.

You can do your MLM Lead Generation in your local and warm market or you can use the Internet. My recommendation is a combination of both. An easy way to get people off the Internet calling you is to use a simple program like Scraper Pro Gold. You can watch in 18 minute video by clicking on the link Scraper Pro Gold Now.
