Tips to Building Your Company Team

 

One of the greatest struggles in network marketing is building your company team.  Just like building a strong networking team and a customer base, building your company team is a foundational skill that will propel your team to success.

The best first step is to listen to your current customers.  They are your potential team members.  If they are already excited about the products, they are probably already
sharing their excitement.  Talk to them honestly about how much work is involved, how much money can be made, how much of your money you have put in.  Don't oversell.  If you do oversell, they will become frustrated when they don't see the results you promoted.  There is a good chance they will become inactive.  

Another step is to advertise in spam/ad groups.  If you use creative graphics, your post will stand out from the rest.  When developing your ad copy, try to make it simple.  Don't give too much information. Don't even give the company
name.  Your ad should give them a reason to contact you for more information without luring them with false promises.  False promises will build an unstable team. 

Here is a note about placing ads in the spam groups.  Don't ever place an ad with just a graphics of cash or say "Make fast cash now!!"  Most people will skip over this type of ad, knowing that it is spreading false hope.  Also, if someone does contact you, you will be building an unstable team.

Have a good new year while you are making plans to grow a stable team!

Spam? What is Spam?


Spam.  It is more than canned meat.  I like to think of Spam as anything that a network marketer does that turns off a prospective customer or a friend.

There are several types.


  • Posting so many ads that your timeline has very little of the real you.
  • Posting ads that are just like everyone else, especially if you post it in the same day as the person you "borrowed" it from.
  • Making friends just to send an introduction private message about your company instead of introducing you.
  • Posting ads making fun of the people who are still undecided.
  • Every time you connect with your potentials, you are putting in a plug for your company.
  • High jacking some else's post by putting an ad or your link in the comments.
  • Wishing someone a Happy Birthday on their timeline by giving them a discount at your business.  
How is the best way to avoid being spammy?  Instead of thinking of new ways to promote your
business, think of what irritates YOU in how others promote.  If something irritates you, then it probably irritates your friends, which is not what you want to do. Treat your friends as friends, not as your next meal ticket.
