Hey there, amazing people! ๐ If you’re in network marketing, you know that duplication is the name of the game. But what does that really mean? Well, in simple terms, duplication is all about teaching your downline to replicate your actions, thereby multiplying your efforts. Sounds great, right? But how do you actually make it happen? ๐ค
To help you out, I’ve broken down the cycle of duplication into five essential phases: Prospecting, Follow-Up, Building Belief, Asking for the Decision, and Getting Them Started. So, letโs dive in and get you duplicating like a pro!
1. Prospecting – It’s a Numbers Game
Prospecting is like dating. Youโve got to kiss a few frogs before you find your prince, right? ๐ But remember, itโs a numbers game. The more people you approach, the better you’ll get at it, and the better your results. Don’t be afraid to reach out to cold contacts, but also leverage your existing network. Friends, family, and colleagues could very well be your golden ticket.
Advanced Tip: Utilize social media to broaden your reach. Make it a habit to connect with at least 10 new people each day. No spammy stuff, just genuine connections. And hey, use those DMs wisely! A well-crafted Direct Message can work wonders.
2. Follow-Up – The Fortune is in the Follow-Up
I can’t stress this enough: Follow-up, follow-up, follow-up! ๐ Create a system for tracking your contacts and follow-ups. There’s no point in prospecting if you donโt follow up.
Advanced Tip: Utilize an AI-based CRM system that can automatically remind you to follow up, or even send out follow-up messages for you. Check out my AI Toolbox if you would like to know which ones I recommend. Make this process as automated as possible so you can focus on building relationships instead of getting bogged down in admin work.
3. Building Belief – The Heart of the Matter
Building belief is more than just spouting off facts about your products or company. Itโs about connecting emotionally with your prospect. Show them how your product has changed lives, including yours. Share testimonials and before-and-after pictures. Make it real for them!
Advanced Tip: Use storytelling as a powerful tool to build belief. People love stories, and they are much more likely to remember a well-told story than dry facts.
4. Asking for the Decision – Seal the Deal
Okay, let’s be real for a second. Most people are not going to say yes right away. And that’s fine! The aim here is not to force a decision but to encourage one. Ask open-ended questions that make them think, like, โHow would your life change if you had an extra $1000 per month?โ
Advanced Tip: Learn the art of objection-handling. The more skilled you are at this, the higher your conversion rate will be.
5. Getting Them Started – Onboarding like a Pro
Congratulations! Your prospect said yes! ๐ Now, the real work starts. Getting them started is crucial. A well-structured onboarding process can make all the difference. Make sure they have all the tools they need. Run a welcome webinar or send them a welcome kit. The idea is to get them pumped and ready to start their own duplication cycle.
Advanced Tip: Keep it simple. Don’t overwhelm your new team member with information, systems and tools that they don’t need out of the gate. Use a digital training platform where new recruits can learn the basics at their own pace. This ensures a standardized level of training and frees you up to focus on other aspects of your business.
