How I found the right groove when talking to a prospect

By John Wallen

There was a time no matter what I thought of to say or how I would handle rejection, I would call a prospect I had generated on the internet, and found myself each and every time just rattling off my business opportunity to them. I couldn't figure out what I was doing wrong.

I'm sure many entrepreneurs can relate to getting no where in their phone conversations with prospects. This was happening on just about every call I made. I just couldn't seem to find the best way to approach this problem.

One thing I had going for me was, a system I use online to produce for me an endless supply of free leads. But my business wasn't growing to quickly, because of my inability to sponsor these people, maybe 1 or 2. I knew that many net workers were getting it done much better than that.

I finally came across something that would change the way I talk to a prospect that was perfect. I found I needed to qualify them and see if they were right for my network business, and not get pushy in getting them to join my opportunity.

The thing I found was a interview sent to me online, a free video that set me straight. In a little under 3 months, I was on the right track and put 73 people in my business. All I was doing was interviewing these people, and seeing if these prospects were good enough for my opportunity.

Just by changing the attitude I have in the conversation I have with a potential prospect, I'm not getting hung up on. I have been a lot more successful in growing my downline the right way, and I'm having a lot more fun doing it. You can easily overcome your fear of talking to prospects, just like I did, in no time at all. - 15485
