The Untold Dirty Truth About Leads
What makes you successful at network marketing? Or better yet, what is the biggest difference between your success and your failures as a network marketer?
The answer to this question just might surprise you.
Did you ever think that the quality of leads plays a dominant role to your bottom line?
Lets take a look.
Im quite sure that most people who venture into the world of network marketing are instructed by their sponsors to buy and call leads in the recruiting process. The end up buying leads a spending countless hours everyday following up with those leads to no avail.
On the other hand, there are marketers that never buy leads and still have their network marketing business grow every single day. Their business just seems to grow on auto-pilot.
With these two approaches to marketing, why is there such a large difference?
Lets consider a few things.
When you run your network marketing business, it is sound practice to be and stay in control. But guess what? When you buy leads you surrender a considerable amount of control.
The way it works when you purchase leads from a lead company, you are placed on auto ship at a set price per month. With this arrangement you are sent a monthly batch of leads like clockwork.
To some degree, this is comforting at first because it sets a regular schedule in your business. You automatically know that at a certain time each month, you will be receiving X number of leads to contact and follow up with.
But think about this for a second.
Do you know where precisely these leads come from? You can probably assume these leads have an interest in network marketing to some extent but besides that, you really dont know how qualified these leads are or where they came from.
You really dont know in what manner these leads were generated, what form they had to complete or how many people to which these particular leads were distributed.
Not knowing this information can leave you a little less equipped to properly gauge their expectations. Also, if your lead company should go out of business you could be swept into a tailspin to find another lead company to do business with that has a totally different system for purchasing leads for which you have to get accustomed.
So if you stop buying leads, your only other option is to generate leads yourself.
Agreed, this is extra work on your part but any lead you generate yourself will be far superior to those you buy.
Why?
It comes down to that whole concept of control. Why you start generating your own leads you know much more about that lead. You know precisely where the lead came from an to what manner that lead was generated.
A great benefit to generating your own leads is they are your leads exclusively. In addition they already know who you are which means following up with them is much more personal. Also you are aware of what designs they had on a network marketing business. Keep in mind they opted in to learn more about your business opportunity, not that of someone else.
Generating your own leads is something that is very powerful. It helps you to maintain control in your business. You should never under estimate its worth to your business and the ability to increase your chances of network marketing success.
