Follow up is one of the most critically important elements that leads to success in selling.
In network marketing and direct selling…follow up is obviously important, since both of those are SALES models.
People often think that network marketing is simply about “sharing” information with others, when in all reality it is a sales business. While information is shared, as it is in many sales situations…it IS a selling game, therefore require follow up.
People are often confused as to exactly HOW to conduct a follow up call in network marketing. Let me set the record straight and tell you exactly how it is done.
First of all, you MUST follow up if you ever expect success in the network marketing or MLM.
Business comes to those who seek it, not those who wait for it. So…the first rule is that you DO follow up. Don't sit around waiting for the business to come. Go GET the business.
