My mlm company trained me in prospecting leads. A good section of this training involved "overcoming objections." The potential client/team member explained their misgivings about signing up and I was given answers to reassure them.

But I kept hearing the same objections over and over again. "I'm not a salesperson." "I don't want to bug my friends." "I'm too shy to approach strangers."

If the majority of people have the same objections, maybe it's time to start listening to them!

The fact is that none of these methods of stranger stalking, pressuring family and friends, and trying to sell without any sales knowledge are effective, anyway! At least, not for most of us. So what to do?

The little ebook, The 7 Great Lies of Network Marketing by Ann Seig seemed to read my mind! It voiced exactly the same objections my prospects were having, and it started me on the path of finding solutions to those problems instead of ignoring them. The book is free, and if you haven't read it, I urge you to download it.

If you think about it, you'll realize something that makes you uncomfortable is highly likely to make your prospect uncomfortable as well. Instead, try attraction marketing.

Attraction marketing is the art of connecting with people who are already interested in what you have to say. More precisely, it's the art of helping those people connect with you. To learn more about attraction network marketing and ways to build your list at no-to-low cost, visit Mike Klingler's blog and read his articles on social marketing. Mike gives some great advice anyone can use.
