The Secret to Getting Past Your Prospects Objections

2 Comments

by Jeff Faldalen

You sit by the phone staring at it, knowing you have to pick it up if you are going to be successful in your new network marketing business. You run every known scenario through your head of how you are going to answer any objection your prospect brings up.

Its on, your ready….

You grab the phone with a power grip, ready to explode any barrier your prospect throws at you, then looking at the key pad, you stop…. and start thinking again! Does any of this sound familiar? If so, then understand it might not be your fault. And by the end of this article you will be free of the one eye’d rejection monster.

After all…

You are a hard working person, willing to do what ever it takes to be successful, right? If you didn’t believe you could be successful, there is no way you would have joined the business in the first place. You know getting prospects is the life blood of having success! But how do you over come those dreaded objections you know they are going to bring up?

It doesn’t have to be this hard…

Now remember what I said about it might not be your fault? Well, this is what I mean. The reason you are having the issues with what to say is because of your belief about what you are doing. Stay with me….. Let me ask you this: What do all your friends say about network marketing? Is it fair to say, most of them think it is a crazy pipe dream? Or that’s one of them there dang pyramid schemes?

So why do you believe what you believe?

Its simple, by what you expose yourself to. Whether we like it or not, we are the sum average of our five best friends. So take a look who you are hanging out with and it will give you a pretty good idea of how others see you. See, when you believe, I mean really believe in what you are doing, there is nothing that will stop you.

So how do you change this?

The first question to ask yourself, what is your why? Why are you doing this business? Now you might asking, why is this important? Because! the reason you are doing your business has to be stronger then the fear you have to face. You know, the fear we talked about in the beginning.

Now this is where it gets real interesting….

See most people don’t value success enough, to go through what is needed in order to get them there. They hit the road running, ready to take on the world, then reality hits them. They get a few no’s, they don’t know that many people and the list goes on and on. You know what I am talking about right? But here is the magic. When you can look at yourself in the mirror and really get it deep down inside of you of yourself and say, do I believe in what I am doing?

More about that in a minute, because there something else we need to do first….

Now this next question is what separates the boys from the men, sort of speak. Do you really believe in yourself? Because I am sure this thought has crossed your mind. How can I tell others they can be successful, when I haven’t achieved it yet. Or something like that, right? When I understood what I am about to tell you, everything and I do mean everything changed for me. You are not responsible for someone else’s success. Yes, you need be honest and ethical, point them in the right direction and be there for them, if they are teachable.

Now think about this….

Here is how you know when you really believe in what you are doing. You will do everything possible to get your opportunity in as may hands as possible because you realize, you can’t change their life until they are willing to invest in themselves. Once I realized this, there was no stopping me. Because if I have something that can change peoples lives and I am not sharing it, what does that make me?

I say all of that, to say this…

When you tap into your incredible uniqueness and realize there is not a person on this planet that can do what you can do. And more importantly, do it the way you do. There will be no one who can take away your dreams and the fear of objections will pass in the night. Because your conviction for what you do will be so apparent, no one will question you.

And the best part is…

You already have everything you need to have success. It is all inside of you. If you are a parent, you know how to speak with authority towards you children. When you were a child, the thought of “I can’t walk” never entered your mind. You seen others do it and you where willing to bang your head, fall on your butt, what ever it took. So go out there and make your dreams a reality and if there is anything I can do to help, be sure to let me know. Because if your dreams mean that much to you, the fear of bothering others or asking questions will fall by your side.

“No Thank You, Spam” – Legal Email Marketing

6 Comments

by Overcome Everything Inc. – Tommy Knox

Hi there, all you aspiring Internet Email Marketing Millionaires!

I have a serious matter to discuss with you today if you are using or intend to use email marketing in your business. The CAN-SPAM Act, a law that sets the rules for commercial email, can cause major headaches for you if you fail to maintain strict compliance with the rules and regs this law sets forth. (Think “stabbed-in-the-eyeball-with-acid-dipped-scissors” kind of headaches.)

The CAN-SPAM Act establishes specific requirements for commercial messages, gives your email recipients the right to have you stop emailing them, and spells out tough penalties for violations.

“Tough penalties you say? How tough?” How’s about up to $16,000.00 per email – is that deterrent enough for you? How about some jail time to go with it?

Imagine this scenario: You have started an email marketing business and done fairly well over the past couple of years. You’ve launched several new product campaigns, sold thousands of units, and built up quite a sizeable list of customers and prospects in your email marketing base. Then one day, someone to whom you’ve sent an email gets upset with you for whatever reason, maybe they got a damaged product or couldn’t get a human to answer your support line or they got fired from their day job and suddenly anyone who appears slightly successful (you) is a target of their ire. They pick up the phone and dial up the Federal Trade Commission’s SPAM hotline or fire off a complaint letter about your “barrage of emails”, and presto – you and your company are the subjects of a full-blown FTC investigation and/or prosecution.

“How can I avoid this?” Well, by making sure you’re in compliance with the SPAM laws. Here’s a quick list of the most relevant ones:

1. You can’t use false or misleading header information. Your  From,  To,  Reply-To, and routing information, including your domain name and email address, must be accurate and identify you or your business as the one who initiated the message.

2. Don’t use deceptive subject lines. The subject line must accurately reflect the content of the message.

3. Identify the message as an email marketing ad. The law gives you a lot of leeway in how to do this, but you must disclose that you’re trying to sell something.

4.Tell recipients where you’re located. Your message must include your valid physical mailing address; it can be a PO box or a street address.

5. Here’s a biggie: Tell recipients how to opt out of receiving future email marketing offers from you. Your message must include a clear explanation of how the recipient can opt out of getting email from you in the future. Craft the notice in a way that’s easy for an ordinary person to recognize, read, and understand. Then, you must honor opt-out requests within 10 business days. Once people have told you they don’t want to receive more messages from you, you can’t sell or transfer their email addresses, even in the form of a mailing list.

6. Monitor what others are doing on your behalf. The law makes clear that even if you hire another company to handle your email marketing, you can’t contract away your legal responsibility to comply with the law. Both your company and the company that actually sends the message may be held legally responsible.

Hey wait, there’s the key! A major part of a successful email marketing business includes an email autoresponder service. That is, for a monthly fee, you subscribe to a service that handles all of your emails. Choosing the right service would include one that guarantees full compliance with the ant-spam laws, right? Right!
