How to Launch a New Team Partner

 

First, congratulate them on their decision and assure them that they have made a wise decision; that you will get their questions answered; get them trained and be there to support them.

 

You can’t do it for them, but you can shorten the learning curve and assist them with what to do, and what not to do. If they succeed, it’s because they did it. IF they fail, it is also because they did it, or didn’t do it!

 

Next, set their expectations and DO NOT make it sound like a breeze. Let them know that most people will say no, but they don’t need everyone. They need to understand the law of numbers, averages, and follow up.

 

Numbers will create growth; averages improve with practice; and follow up will explode their business because of life timing.

 

Then, let them know you understand what is probably their 2 biggest fears.

 

2 Big Fears -

 

I don’t know what to say or do…

 

I don’t want to look stupid to my friends and family….

 

So, goal # one, BEFORE the why and the goal setting is - make sure they know what to do and what to say.  Make sure they understand the 2 ways you make money -

 

Signing up customers, to use the product.

 

Signing up distributors use the product and sign up other customers and distributors who do, too.

 

So, how to do that?

 

Educate them on how to make that list. Let them know that you “Get” that they might edit it. Talk to them about the top ten people first. Well connected, have the money, are positive and so on.

 

Then, set their expectations. You “get” that they may be hesitant because they don’t know what to say, so here are some ideas on what to say -

 

Listen to the show right before this one - 097 - as it has ice breakers.

 

Make a HOT list - REALLY close friends and family. 

 

I know you are super busy and I won’t take a lot of your time. I’ve launched a business, I know you won’t be interested in it but I do think you’ll love the product. I need a favor. I need you to order a box, sign up, or whatever, and just try the product for a month. I need some testimonials. IF you love it, GREAT, write me a testimonial and continue as my customer. If you don’t love it, no worries, I’ll never ask you again.

 

Would you be willing to do that for me?

 

Then, move to the list they will be contacting from a third party approach.

 

I know you are super busy and would not have time, so I wanted to get your opinion. I’ve started a business and I know you know a lot of people. I’ve always admired your professionalism in business. I’m expanding my business in your area and wonder - who do you know who is sharp, ambitious and does keep their options open for other ways of adding cash flow.

 

From there, make sure your new team partner knows the “system” to take someone through to present the opportunity.

 

 

Do they have a product order in and do they know and understand how to order products; and the importance of auto ship.

 

Do they know how to sign up a customer and a distributor?

 

Do they understand the tools?

 

Schedule a time to introduce them to their upline, if possible.

 

Explain conference calls, and events. Get the next event on their calendar.

 

Lay out a daily and weekly action plan that they agree to. They need to know how to get their first customer and distributor which you basically cover in the steps we already went through with their list. Put it into the calendar and schedule it.

 

Give them 2 assignments to accomplish in the first 48 hours, and these must be income producing activities. Get 2 customers, show the business twice; schedule an in home and begin inviting people.

 

Ask them how they want to stay accountable and how they want you to handle it when they go MIA - missing in action.

 

That’s really it. Pretty simple. Other than being available for 3 way calls, there is not a lot your upline can do, once these steps are fulfilled. 

 

THEY must make the list; MAKE the calls; Plug in and keep themselves in action.

 

ACTION STEPS

 

Develop a guide that you will use to get someone launched.

 

If you haven’t really launched yourself - DO SO!

 

Reach out to team members you have already enrolled and ask if they need support.

 

Write out your own daily/weekly plan so you can share an example.

 

Make sure your next company or generic event is on your calendar and you are attending!
