The purpose of the Prospecting Rules! blog is share some ideas about prospecting. If you’re actively promoting a Network-Marketing or Direct-Sales opportunity, then you know all too well the importance of prospecting. It’s the lifeblood of your business. In short, Prospecting Rules!
Consider the PR! blog a resource, a smorgasbord of smart ideas, a potpourri of principles, a cornucopia of critical concepts that govern prospecting. Approaching someone you don’t know with a business opportunity is a unique activity. There are ways to do so in a friendly, professional, and effective manner (Hint: mounting an all-out frontal assault isn’t one of them). By following some tried and true principles, you can create phenomenal win-win results. Think about it like this: proper prospecting involves following some basic rules—Prospecting Rules!
As it matures, this blog will develop into a collection of useful topics all relevant to your prospecting efforts. Whether you’re building a Network-Marketing team, a Direct-Sales team, or perhaps an insurance agency, you can find valuable information to aid your endeavor. Heck, one time, I even had the owner of a franchise company ask to pick my brain about how to recruit more franchisees. I guess it’s true—principles is principles.
And principles is all you’ll get here.
