Common Sense Tips to Build Your Business
I had the wonderful opportunity to spend some one-on-one time on the phone with the #1 Customer Recruiter in my company (we currently have 60,000 Associates). What he shared with me, I thought I would share with all of you. I believe what he offers - everyone in every company can learn from.
1. Want more money? TALK to a lot of people!**Note: He didn`t say: "send out a lot of emails!" He said TALK.
2. Everytime you talk to someone - THEN, send them an email.**Note: He didn`t say, "send out a lot of emails and THEN call them!"
3. Realize you will get more "no`s" then "yes`s" **Note: He didn`t say, "everyone is going to buy from you!"
4. Get on the phone!**Note: He didn`t say, "get on those emails!"
5. So what they don`t BUY from you today - they might tomorrow! **Note: he didn`t say, "if they don`t buy from you today - never call them back!" Keep the relationship going, until it is the right time to buy for your prospect.
In other words - good old fashioned common sense comes into play here - Talk to people.
Personally, I have been in Network Marketing for 30 years - and never have I ever sold or enrolled a new Distributor without TALKING to them, first. Sign-ups from links in emails do not work. Period.
You can ESTABLISH relationships online - but it will take the old-fashioned technology of a PHONE or "eyeball to eyeball" to make the business happen.
Why do you think companies that hold "parties" (Tupperware, Mary Kay, etc) have done so well - personal interaction!
How valuable is this advise? The man who gave me this advise makes over $8000/month in PRODUCT sales alone. He knows how to provide customer service and build relationships - and for that, he is paid very well.
Service Pays.....agreed?
All the Best,

I would say phone or telemarketing is much more effective than email marketing depending on the products or services but email marketing is still a good way to market. I`m not talking about spam. Emailing people who have opted to receive it is the best way.
I would recommend doing both phone and email marketing for any company.
Anyone can send an email these days; although email marketing is a good way to keep in contact w/your customers - send them promotions and newsletters to keep your `brand` in the forefront of their mind.
