Step 1: Prospecting Networking to Develop New Business Contacts

The key to meeting personal contacts is to be natural; dont say too much. Nobody wants to be overwhelmed, no matter how good the message is. As you go about your day, look for people with whom to start a conversation. Study the following example, and then use the F.O.R.M. method to help develop a new warm market by meeting new people.

Remember: No matter where you meet someone, keep in mind the basic recruiting principles and never say too much to scare the person off. Your goal is to get the person name, email & cell phone number

Step 1: Prospecting Using FORM

F O R M If you can remember one simple word, FORM, you can talk with anyone. FORM stands for four topics that everyone is comfortable discussing, even with someone theyve just met.

F stands for Family (Ask about his/her family and tell about yours)

O stands for Occupation

(Ask what they do for a living and briefly state what you do)

R stands for Recreation

(Ask what he/she does for fun; discuss shared interests)

M stands for Motivation or Message

(Whats important to a person)

Step 1: Prospecting What Do You Do?

What To Say When Asked, What Do You Do? When asked this question, you want to be factual about what you do, but not so specific that it fails to intrigue the person with whom youre speaking. Heres an example of how to answer the question, So, what do you do for a living?

I teach people how to access $100k - $1.5M in the event they get sick. I dont have time to get into the details now, but if youd like to know more, heres my card. [Hand your business card to the person, then ask for their name, phone & email address]

Step 1: Prospecting Power of Friendship Farming BONUS

You can expand your warm market by using the Friendship Farming technique to cultivate new relationships. Prospect as you GO. Find ways to start up a conversation with the people you meet. Your goal here is to make new friends. There will be plenty of time later to when you do 1-on-1.

Keys to Friendship Farming Remember: It is Win Friends then

Influence People, not the other way around. Dont press too hard on the first contact.

Understand the power of The Law of Averages and the Law of High Numbers.

Dont forget: People need our opportunity to make a serious second income, or to make a career change. This is the most powerful crusade we have let them feel it from your heart.

Step 1: Prospecting Friendship Farming How it works

The Approach Where: Shopping centers and small businesses. When: The best times are between 9:30-11:45 a.m. and between 1:15-5 p.m., when most businesses are the least busy. How: Walk into the business and start looking around. The person in the store will usually ask, May I help you? You say (in a very friendly polite tone)

No, thank you. I have an appointment nearby and I arrived a little early. I am just killing a few minutes. This is a nice store -- are you the owner? [The person usually isnt but wishes she were, and this question usually gets her talking.]

Step 1: Prospecting Friendship Farming

Then use the F.O.R.M. Method to get a casual conversation going while you are still browsing. Questions such as: Have you worked here long? Do you live close by? Etc.

Remember: Stay no longer than 3 to 5 minutes. Dont talk about the business.

As you leave, ask if they have a card so you can remember where this store is. If he doesnt have a card, ask for his

name and write it down with the store name after you leave.
