Tips for your network marketing business

Hey, everyone, this is Laurie Delk Radecki And tonight I’m gonna talk to you about some tips in your network marketing business. And so it can be in any business, no matter what you’re in. And so I’m just gonna give you a few tips. I have a whole lot. But I’m just gonna give you a few tonight. So

one of the first ones is, take your selling seriously. When you begin a network marketing, you know, you invest in your products. And you want to be a product of the product. So find a company that you can align yourself with that. You’re gonna believe in the products. You’re gonna use the products or service, whichever that is.

But you’re gonna invest your time, you’re gonna invest your effort. You’re gonna invest your genuine care. And but you need to be a product of the product. Don’t ever join something just because of how much money you can make or whatever cause. Then that’s not gonna work. You need to love the product. You need to love the service. You need to love the company

all that together, whatever that is, you need to be in love with the product just like, you know the old Kirby salesman. Right? If you weren’t, if you didn’t own a Kirby, but you were selling them. That doesn’t make any sense right? You need to sell, and you need to be aligned with something that you totally believe in.
And then next, you want to
always treat people with respect, so you might reach out to your friends and your family, and most companies tell you to do that reach out to your friends and family and share it with them, and there’s nothing wrong with that. And I know some companies now try to say, Oh, don’t do that. Well, if you really love your product.

and you really think it can help people. then, if you don’t share it with your family and friends, you’re doing them a disservice. If you really think
truly, believe that your product or service is helpful.

then, if you don’t share it with your family and friends. When they find out, what are they gonna say to you? They’re gonna say, why didn’t you tell me about that? Right?
So you need to tell people. But you still need to respect them. Right? So if they’re not interested.

that’s okay, if they are interested. But they have lots of questions. That’s okay. Right? If they join and they don’t do anything. That’s okay. Let everybody do what they want to do and let everybody join where they want to join at and do what they want to do. You can always coach and guide them and help them with different things, and you should definitely do that, especially if you want to be a leader. But

you still be okay with whatever somebody wants to do, or however they want to join, or if they don’t want to join, or if they only want to be a customer, all those things you want to be respectful of them
and their position.

And then another thing you want to do is you want to find a mentor? If you want to be successful in any company, you need to have a mentor. And so your mentor is, gonna be more than likely, more experience than you.

You can learn what strategies work for them and don’t work for them like with me. I share with people on my team what works for me? I share what I’m doing. I share what doesn’t work for me.

I share with people how to pitch or offer things to other people, how to say things. I design fliers and
images all the time to share on social media for my team. And so you want somebody that is going to be aligned with you like that, that where you can learn from someone that has more experience in the field, and is going to help you to grow and develop more professionally

and then, especially nowadays, utilize social media. So some people say that they don’t want to use social media, or they don’t use it very much, or they only use this platform or that platform.
and that’s fine if you want to only use certain ones, but especially nowadays. If you really want to do really well, you need to utilize social media. Most people are on some form of social media and the same thing. There’s still people that aren’t like my husband. But
you know, a lot of people are on it. So if you want to really reach a lot of people.
and you don’t want to have to spend a lot of time on the phone or doing that belly to belly marketing, which is nothing wrong with that, and I totally love that. But if you want to reach a lot of people you want to be on social media. And so each platform has different tools. You can use to promote your business.

But you know, like tick, tock is all videos. Instagram is mostly images, but can do videos. Also, Facebook is text images, videos, anything that you want.
And the thing is, you know, definitely, you want to figure out where your playground is, and what you like the most. but I still recommend that you be on some of the other ones also, and just use them some and build up your followers as well. Your friends list or your followers.

and the same thing. Get with your sponsor. Get with somebody that you can learn from. I post things all the time, and I tell people on my team you’re welcome to use anything that I post.
and then think about your mindset. One of the biggest things, and one of the biggest struggles for most people and network marketing, or in any business, for that matter. is your mindset.

People with healthy mindsets, with professional mindsets that have motivated mindsets are always gonna go farther, and you should always be learning and growing so just like on this training, you should be learning and growing. You should be watching training videos. You should be listening to training videos. I do this. I put it on Youtube. I put it on my podcast I put it on my website, I put it in my team group.

and
it always amazes me of people that ask me the same questions of something I just trained on.
And I do this for my team mainly. And so.
you know, learn from your mentors. And if you want to be
in that area and get to that next level, you need to upgrade your mindset. And you need to learn. And you need to be growing every single day.
and then then you also want to be consistent. So network marketing requires people to be very consistent. If you want to generate profits and money in this field, you want to be consistently reaching out to potential clients, to prospects
consistently showing people that you still use the product right? So like, I use our patches right that your business is still available, that they can participate whenever they’re ready. You can be consistent by following up with interested people.

You want to post on your social media regularly. You want to keep in touch with the people that have asked you about it that haven’t signed up yet, and follow up with them. Tell them, you know, if if this is how it is in your company, you know it’s money back guaranteed. There’s no questions asked. You can try it. You have 30 days to send it back, etc.,

you know, whatever it is with your company always follow up.
Following up is one of the biggest things, and being consistent is another one of the biggest things.
You don’t want to jump companies all the time. People want to know that you’ve been in the same company for a long time.

The company that I was in before this I was in for 20 years, and I still use that product and service. So you you don’t want to be jumping all over the place. People want to know that they’re with somebody who’s gonna
stand there and be there, no matter what.
And then do your research. So
on your company, you know. Go to your own website, read every page, every word on every website. So you’re familiar with what is on your website log into your back office, click on every single link in your back office. You don’t have to do it all at once, so you don’t have to get overwhelmed.

But maybe every day spend 30 min to an hour of just clicking on links and finding where things are. So you know where they are and reading. So you get more in your head. You get more in your mind.

So that way, you know more like in our company. I tell people go to our testimonial site and read 3 to 5 testimonials every single day.

because the more you read, the more it gets into your head of what those testimonials are good for.
and then be authentic. So people
want to see the raw and the real you
right. They they don’t want to see somebody who’s fake, or if they meet you in person. They want to see that you’re you right. They don’t want to

find out that you’re like completely different, right? So when you meet me in person when you see me on stage, like I might like if I’m at an event, and I’m speaking in an event I might be dressed up a little bit more then, if you meet me in person. But
I’m still the same
right? And so that’s one thing. You want people you want to be authentic, and you want people to see that right
and then prepare yourself to sponsor other people. you know. That’s a given, obviously. But you want
people to join your team right? If you’re in network marketing and you want people to sign up, you wanna make money. You want people to join your team. So you need to be able to provide them some guidance. And you know some marketing strategies that you’ve learned. You wanna teach them about the products that the company sells right? So it’s always great to talk to your upline and be in touch with your upline and have them to ask questions.

and but you want them to hold your hand only so far right. You always want to be learning and growing so that way you can be better for your people as they come on your team.
and then
ask other people for you know marketing tactics. So if you’re not good at it, or if you’re not sure, like a lot of times. If I create something
I’ll post it on my wall, and I’ll ask other people, hey, what do you think about this? Or do you like it this way, or do you like it this way? I might create 2 different
marketing images that I’m gonna promote with right? And I might ask my following, you know which one do you like better? Which one catches your eye better, so you can do things like that as well.
And then remember, figure out who your target audience is, and so a lot of people call it the avatar like, who is your avatar as you’re selling a product, you know, I know, like I used to run network

networking groups locally for years, and I would have you know, a real estate agent come in and say, II want to sell. You know my customers. Anyone who wants to buy or sell a house same with mortgage. Brokers, right or insurance agents, or it’s anybody

think of a target audience. Think of what you want to go after like with us, with our company with the patches.
you know. Of course, anybody you know that has skin could use the patches, but
if you have a certain thing like for me, I had Major back and leg pain with sciatica.
So that can be one of my target audiences, because that’s what helped me. That’s what got me to pull out my credit card. So think about what got you to pull out your credit card.
and that may be your target. Audience, now, you can still sell to other people, of course. but you want to

narrow down who you’re going after and what you’re looking for that way you can really do targeted marketing right? And so you’re still, that doesn’t mean that you’re not going to do marketing for everybody or for something different, right?
But you just wanna figure out who is your target audience
and narrow it down to that a little bit. So that way you can promote to them like I said, you can still sell to other people.
and then listen to your potential clients and customers.
So as they ask you questions, listen to them. If you don’t know the answer, be okay with telling them that you don’t know but that you’ll find out.
and then ask your sponsor. But the thing is, listen to them. See what they say. Not every customer client might be different too. So what might work for one customer might not work for another customer. So that’s where you always want to listen to people, and be ready to change and answer the different people and the different ways that they need to be.

And so those are the the last of the tips that I’m going to share with you tonight. We’ve got lots more, and we do this training every single Monday night, so I hope you’ll tune in with us next time. Thanks, everyone.

Your business is like a deck of cards

Okay, hey, everyone. This is Laurie Delk Radecki. And I’m gonna talk to you and train tonight on
how your business relates to a deck of cards.
and so it can be for a network marketing business. It can be for the business that I’m in But it could be for any network marketing business. It could even be for any traditional business, too, because it’s just relating to basically like a numbers game.
So a deck of cards has 52 cards in it, you know, and so
most games when you’re playing them. No other card has a higher ranking than the ace. Right? And it’s hard to be a hand of aces, especially, you know, all 4 aces in most card games.
So what would your team or your clients, or your customers, or whatever. What would it look like if it was filled with aces? And you had just all kinds of aces
in your group or on your team.
So network marketing is a numbers game when it comes to inviting people to take a look. And the same thing like I said, that’s the same, no matter what kind of company you’re in, whether it’s mortgage broker, insurance agent, whatever right so to personally sponsor people into your business, or to sign up people as customers or clients, you must consistently be
prospecting as well as inviting.

And so when it comes to sponsoring and building, especially a big team, you need to understand that prospecting.
and the
the way to understand prospecting, I think, is an easy way is this deck of cards. So there’s usually 52 cards in a deck right? There’s 4 aces.
There’s
12 face cards. There’s Jack, there’s

queens. there’s kings. there’s the two’s 345-67-8910, and we can’t forget the jokers. Right?

You always have a few of those in there. So

what does that mean for your business? Well, first of all
prospecting is about finding people to talk to about your business, but you have to remember not everybody is a prospect so like the old school. Talking training was like, you know, talk to everybody within 3 feet from you.

I personally disagree with that. But you could do whatever you want with that. But the thing is, you have to figure out who you want to talk to, but then you still do need to talk to people.

And so. with all your deck of cards out of 54 invites.
You want to ask people to take a look right? So look at your opportunity. Look at your product, look at your service. You’re gonna have some people that are going to be to. You’re gonna have some people that are going to be 3.

You’ll have some that will be 4, you know. You’ll have some that are 5, 6, 7, etc.
Some will be 8, some 10, some Jack’s Queen’s kings, and then you’re gonna come across 4 aces right? So. And also, you know, sometimes on occasion, you might misjudge someone. And like I said, you might invite a couple of jokers, you know. It happens to us all. We get people on our team or customers or clients that you know

some people. You just can’t please them right.
But the thing is, you want to always be talking to people, and you want to invite people to take a look.
It’s not your success is that you invited someone to take a look. Not your success isn’t that they signed up with you, whether it’s to be a customer or distributor, or whatever it’s to take a look.
So that’s the thing. So you want to keep asking people to come, take a look to get at least 54, and when you get at least 54 you’re probably gonna have one of every one of these cards in the deck.
right? So in there somewhere is going to be 4 aces right in there somewhere. You’re going to have your 4 to’s
some you think that you know there are a prospect, they might say. No, it might even be a little bit rude about it, or whatever you know. So that’s kind of your twos right? But you’re gonna get those right. So

take it. And just, you know, okay, I keep flipping the cards over.

And eventually the more I flip

the more I’m going to get closer to one of those aces right?

So some won’t return your calls or won’t return your messages. So those are your threes and your force right? And so think about that, like

how many people you know they ghost you on the text, or on your messenger, or whatever right you still just keep talking to people doesn’t matter. Keep flipping your cards. Keep going through your deck, because eventually you’re gonna hit those aces.

So don’t stop until you’ve talked to at least for 54 people. That’s one of the things I tell people when they tell me that they get discouraged, or whatever about talking to people. Have you talked to 54 yet.

if you haven’t talked to 54 yet, you haven’t turned over all the cards in your deck, so you need to at least do that.
So the list goes on. There’s many scenarios, you know. There’s the 5, the 6, the sevens, the 8, the 9, the tens, the Jacks, the queens, the kings. Some even get excited, you know. They’re just gonna join you any day and then
cool. They’re gone. They’re not talking to you anymore, right? They keep saying that they’re gonna sign up. But you know, it’s been 6 months now, and literally every week you talk to them, and they still say that they’re gonna sign up next week.
And so, you know, and the same thing, the jokers, you know, you can’t find the jokers.

But on the industry averages. They say, you know, it takes 25 conversations to find 14 people that need your product or opportunity or service. So that’s 14 invites that you make asking someone to take a look right. But that’s 25 conversations to get to those 14 invites.
Then out of those 14 invites with practice and over time, you know, you stay consistent
on average, you’ll have 3, maybe watch video. listen, or attend a presentation online or in person. And out of those 3
one will join you in the business, and that’s your ace of signing up people right? So out of 54 invitations, you’re gonna have 4 aces. So that means you’re gonna sign up for people.
So that’s just for the presentation part, then we can relate that exact same scenario

to sponsoring. So but with that, so if you want to talk to 50, if you want to get 4 people to sign up, talk to 54 people, and you should have 4 out of 54 minimum. And the more talk people you talk to, the better your sign up rates are going to get the better you’re going to get. And so then that number is going to go up on your next 54. Maybe you’ll get 8.

So you want to keep talking to people, and how how quick you want to go just depends on you. If you take 5 years to talk to 54 people, you’re gonna get one person a year. If you take, you know, one year to talk to 54 people. You’re gonna get 4 people in a year
if you take a month to talk to 54 people that’s pretty much like 2 people a day. Right? So you’re going to get 4 people a month.
So however, you want to do it, that’s how you can work it for you. So then think about, especially if you are in network marketing, sponsoring, right getting people on your team joining your team. So the same thing. You’re gonna just talk to people. And you’re just gonna flip over cards each time you talk to someone, it’s just flipping a card. And if you think about it that way? Then
you don’t have to think about. Oh, man, they didn’t sign up with me. Right? You just. You just don’t worry about it. You just talk to them. Talk to the next person, talk to the next person, talk to the next person if they sign up with you. Great if they don’t sign up with you.

you know. Bid them farewell. Still, be friends with them, still, build a relationship with them, because you never know when things are going to change, and they may come back and sign up with you anyway. But you just keep flipping your cards
so, following the same exact formula like we talked about before you’re gonna have, say, out of 54 invites, have someone take a look at your opportunity or your products the same thing. Some will be 2, some 3, some 4, 5, 6, 7, you know. 8, 9, 10. Your face cards.
some are going to think that you know they’re going to say, no, you’re gonna get the
get the angry person that’s going to be your 2 right. But you want to keep talking to them, and you want to keep signing them up, so say they sign up.
but then
they don’t do anything right. The same thing. Those are your twos.
They’re just kind of sitting there. Maybe they order once every 6 months, right? They signed up basically to get the discount. They’re your glorified customers right?
So you’re gonna get those people, too. So don’t worry about it. Keep flipping your cards, talk to someone else, flip that card, talk to someone else, find another card, flip it, and you know the next one, it’s going to be a 6.
They’re not going to do much, but they’re going to order every single month right? And then you keep flipping the card some more, and then you’re gonna get a 9. They’re gonna sign up, you know, a couple of people here and there.
and then you’re gonna get a jack.
and they’re going to sign up even more people right?
And then pretty soon you’re gonna get to an ace, right? And so
those are the people that are gonna see the big picture. They’re gonna work consistently. They’re gonna build a big business for you. and can make you a millionaire, and you can
make a lot of money if you just keep talking to people, and you just keep flipping those cards, talking to more people, signing them up, letting them do what they want to do. You know you can’t like. They say you can lead the horse to water, but you can’t make them drink right.
some will sign up a couple of friends and family.
maybe get a few customers, you know. Some will
sign up people and sponsor people off and on. Some will build a balanced business. They’ll give, get even more customers and distributors. And like, I said, then you’re gonna get your aces, and your aces are going to be the whole reason you stay in this business. So just
don’t ever become discouraged. That’s the biggest thing. Don’t become discouraged. Just keep talking to people. Just keep flipping over those cars. And just think about that. Out of every 54 people you talk to.
You’re gonna have some of these different ones that we talked about.
and the same thing out of the ones that you sign up.
Every person you sign up on your team is going to be one of these cards.
So if you want to have more aces on your team, sign up more people
right? Because if you sign up and have 54 players on your team, you’re probably gonna have 4 aces somewhere in there. So just say, studious. Keep talking like they say it’s the law of averages. You can’t change that. So just keep talking to people. Just keep building and let me know how it goes for you.

Talk to you later. Everyone. Good night.

Did you fall down?

awwww….did you fail? did someone tell you no?

do you give up or keep going on what you believe in?

Remember when you were a baby or toddler, learning to walk? When you fell down, did you say “This walking thing is not for me, I will let people carry me from now on” Or did you GET UP, dust off your bootstraps and try it again! And now, what, I bet you can RUN too!

Same in your business, at the beginning you might fall, you probably will! But keep getting up, pretty soon you will be #running and #WINNING! Don’t give up!

Acknowledge Referral Givers

BUSINESS TIP

When you are in business, you can go out and get your sales, and that is good…..But MANY times, if you are good, your networking and relationship building is the utmost important – as you will get REFERRALS as you build that know, like, trust and REMEMBER with people.So WHEN you do get a REFERRAL from a friend or client, make SURE you ACKNOWLEDGE that!

Send them a thank you card, or a gift, or something, someway acknowledge that. That will lend them to WANT to send MORE REFERRALS your way, where not acknowledging that – can tend to make them NOT want to send referrals your way, as maybe you didn’t appreciate it.

My grandmother taught me when I was 5, thank people PROPERLY, if they did something for you, or gave you something, thank them – with a card (minimum).

Story – I have someone, that I referred someone to them, that spends thousands a month with this person….I have taught them, coached them….yet the referral was not even acknowledged w a voice thank you, nor a card or anything else. (Granted I did not do the referral to get the thanks…..but it is the story to share – for your moral character building :))
