A “Starbucks Meet-up” Strategy For Building Network Marketing In Your Local Area?

Can your local coffee house franchise actually assist you in growing your network marketing business. Can it be a springboard to major momentum? Can Starbucks help you become a star and make more bucks?  Yes it can.

It helped me and if done correctly can can help you do the same as well.

In this post I’m going to share the simply and effective strategy I used less than 90 days a go to not only reach out to my local community but how I also grew my primary opportyunity into a thriving city-based hotel meeting.

Let’s face it, everyone has a local market that they would so love to dominate. If you reside in a population  base that has several hundred to several million and no one in your respective company has targeted or capitalized on it, then the good news is the leader of that local market is none other than you. Yesm you heard me. It’s the person staring back at you in the mirror.

While most people are waiting for a leader to emerge in your town, city, sate or province before they take action or begin their network marketing quest. The obvious truth is that you are the one and there is no competition if you do what I’m going to sahre with you in the next few lines.

1. Created a short 1-2min video calling all local reps in my primary company to come and attend a fun casual meet-up  that will help these reps to connect with other local reps.

2. Post this video on all your video sharing, blogs and social media sites. Do this approx 8-10 days out to give attendees time to RSVP and book it in their calendars.

3. Create a  specific event that connects the video to that day, afternoon or evening event. ie facebook

4. As people respond, reach out to them in a real sincere way asking them what their biggest challenges or frustrations with their company is and ensure you confirm their attendance and the directions to the venue.

5. Book the venue and prepare the area for your casual meet-up ahead of time. ie chairs, tables etc. I chose Sbux because it is a more affluent type of coffee house tending to attract more upper-middle class traffic

6. Make sure you have the right attitude so that whether 2 or 22 show up, you’ll be there ready to connect with these reps and new prospects and that you will 2-3weeks later have another offline meet-up.

* [The real secret to this strategy is that it must be done consistently. One time is not enough]

At the meet-up the objective for you to facilitate a casual and comfortable exchange (over coffee) lol so you can get to know the local network marketing reps in your immediate region. To connect with local entrepreneurs from your city is the the purpose. Be relaxed, get to know everyone and have fun.

Don’t be pushy, salesy or come across anxious or needy. You’re not there to recruit. Just to connect. Instead ask information-gathering questions about all in attendance.  Write down names, numbers  & emails before the meeting ends. If you follow this format of  casual coffee shop format, I can assure you will have people come out to meet you the leader of this event. Don’t commiserate over those who do not show up. If you take interest in those who have shown up, they will almost always 99.9% ask you the question you’re waiting for which is. “What do you do?” or “can you tell me about your company?” This is not the point to drool, salivate or puke on your new friends. You can give a hand out or mention briefly some key info and/or book another specific time to re-connect to discuss your opportunity in detail.

The list of names, numbers and emails is now your master list to reference for follow-up and the next future meet-up. I think you’re now getting the concept of how a casual meet-up can bring local networkers to you!

Please listen to the below interview I conducted with my Business Partner & Mentor  Ray Higdon via webinar on how I mastered this offline meet-up strategy that allowed me to recruit 15 new reps in under 33 days and develop a duplicating team of 100 plus in under 90 days.

The meet-up strategy works & it can work for you right from a Starbucks or local cafe house of your choice to build in your local area. Just be willing to step out away from the safety of your pc TODAY!  Click the link below to listen to the full interview.

What To Do After You Leave Your Company’s Live Event?

In our business and on our team  the philosophy of success is simple.  There are 3 mandatory things that any serious network marketer MUST do to experience exponential growth especially after leaving a motivating live event. Let’s face it we all have been there right? we get jacked up with the company event with the other 100o reps only to find ourselves back in that seat next event at the same level or worst less than where we were.

You see while many attend an event and leave elated, some just never seem to translate the feeling, the excitement, knowledge  and desire into any real results. What then is the solution. What component is missing? What is the strategy to get to the next level?

Here it  is.  The game plan to breakthrough?.  Simple. 1) Develop leaders, 2) duplicate with consistent work ethic and 3) build from event to event.

That’s it..

And this is exactly what my good friend and business partner Kenneth Bristol with Team United shared with me in this spontaneous and organic video right after we left our company’s 3 day intensive University style training.

Watch this short video clip and commit to do exactly what Kenneth shared. It really is  something any serious rep can do to experience the results they are seeking.  Once again develop leaders, duplicate and build function to function. Nothing more. Nothing less.

Commit to this and Kenneth & I will see you at the top!

A Conversation You Won’t Hear From Your Boss at the Office Water Cooler!

Sometimes when you are with great leaders, and the camera starts to roll, the value, thought process and level of inspiration is so thick you can cut it with a knife. Wow, This is exactly what happened here in this rare beach side footage I had the pleasure of recording with my business partners. Listen to this conversation. It is definitely one you WON’T hear around your after cooler or photo-copier at the office.

Why J. Paul Getty Was So Right!!

J. Paul Getty who made his billions in oil during the great depression once said…“I’d rather have 1 percent of 100 people’s efforts than 100 percent of my own.”

How tremendously profound & applicable his statement still almost eighty years later.

If there’s one key element we can all agree that will make the difference in the long-term profit, stability and success of your online or offline business, it’s one word — duplication. You see in network marketing, you can do it right and you can do it wrong.

Most get busy but never get productive.

Why?
Because if they want it done right they do it themselves. This axiom may be in fact be true in traditional business or self-employment but in mlm or network marketing, that is a formula for failure.

If you are to become successful and free in network marketing you must DUPLICATE.

Many people work hard but not smart. While hard work is admirable, smart work is more effective. Duplication allows you to get greater results with less effort while creating exponential growth for an entire organization instead of just a select few.

There are many people in the network marketing industry that are good, however he challenge is they never find or develop others be good, too! lol They are the king pin (as they say) doing all the meetings and thus all the work. That sounds funny I’m sure, but the reality is this.. If you never develop or train others to get to where you are at OR have others be able to do what you do and get the results you get, all you’ll have is a network marketing job. And Who wants that?

Listen by doing all the work constantly by yourself, you will only end up frustrated, and by yourself. Learn to start training other leaders and DUPLICATE your efforts. This will EXPLODE your results.  After all two things we all want to produce at the end of the day  is …TIME & MONEY which is FREEDOM.

So let me ask you, “Are you duplicating yourself? Are you training others to be as good or if not better than you? Are you seeking those leaders who want a large thriving and international business? Are you seeing yourself with 50 leaders like you backed up by 50 like you?

In closing remember the quote from J. Paul Ghetty,  I stared out this blog post with.  He said “I’d rather have 1 percent of 100 people’s efforts than 100 percent of my own.”

How much do you have? If you have only your own, begin duplicating today.

What Top Earners in Numis Paraldi & Mcken Have in Common?

The day after a rocking PBR & a power packed training Christopher Paraldi and 4 star top ranked leader Erwin Mcken toured a special area of Toronto.

The area is called Little Italy.

Christopher being 3rd generation Italian made this choice for shopping, sight seeing and afternoon brunch the perfect spot.  We strolled, we ate, we took pictures…we even cut a really cool video. But before you scroll down to watch it, first  listen to this interesting point about what these guys have in common.

Erwin isn’t italian.  (in case you haven’t noticed) lol Does it matter? Does it mean that they only connect on a business level and nothing else?

Not at all because theere are certain other key commonalities that connect these two great top producing leaders outside of their company

Although from different cultures, they have the same taste.

Although from different cities, they love to travel the world.                                                                                   Although from different backgrounds, they have the same vision for the future.                                               Although from different experiences they have same leadership capacity.

Although from different previous companies we have the same awesome opportunity and making history wherever we go.

The Real Secret of The top Producer Finally Revealed!!

How To Help Your Team Win Your Next Companys’ Incentive Trip, 100% of The Time!

QUESTION What’s better than achieving? Answer. Helping others  achieve too.

If you’ve ever coached or trained someone else then you know that the rush and exuberance of seeing others hit their goals is totally rewarding.

That is exactly how I feel and what is happening right now with a number of leaders on our business team.

Recently my wife and I returned from our  primary company’s annual convention. It was fun! We where both  recognized for a top level that only a handful of reps have attained AND also for winning a 4 day 3 night incentive trip to a luxury resort in the Bahamas this upcoming Oct 8th-11th.  Was it amazing? Yes. Are we satisfied with this alone? No. We’re happy to report to you that our new goal is to help as many others get there too.

The old saying, says it best. “It’s lonely to play on the beach by yourself” so because I don’t want to have fun alone, we’re turning up the heat, passion and activity to help as many leaders get to the next level.

So what’ the fist step.

#1 MAKE A SERIOUS DECISION. You will do whatever it takes to get your goal accomplished and see your desire realized. This may mean physically stepping out of your comfort zone and increasing the amount of your daily work ethic.  How? Talking to 10 more people. Making 5 more calls. Booking 3 more appointments. Generate one more lead.

#2. MENTALLY BLOCK OUT WHAT OTHERS THINK OF YOU. So many future millionaires and or luxury resort contest winners lol are stalled NOT by their inability to do some mechanical task or even learn a slick new close tip. But rather they get beaten down by their own minds of what others think about them. Here s the freedom and complete solution to this metal road block. 995 of people are not even thinking about you. They are so bogged down by the drama and issues of their “own little lives” they are even remotely thinking of you. The pother fact is they are not paying your bills, feeding your children or taking care your welfare economically. So let’s get over that and ourselves right now!

#3 GET TO WORK! Right now after you finish reading this post. Start doing IPA. Income Producing Activities. What are those in our industry? Simple. Two things….RECRUITING & RETAILING. Nothing more and nothing less! Everyday you make a commitment to yourself that you’re not going to bed without having done one of  these two things. What will happen? Well, a few things

A.you will realize that you are one step closer to your goals, achievements and dreams.

B. You’ll change into a different person. You’ll become a producer. A change agent and you’ll love it so much you’ll be baffled that you never did it sooner.

…and C. You just might even find yourself qualified and hanging out with  us this fall in Atlantis Resort, Paradise Island in Bahamas. So what are you waiting for.

Get Moving!
