Testing the New Flock Auto-Blogging Feature

Posted by Cenay Nailor  | Published in Announcements

If you haven’t yet found it, Flock is the blogger of choice for Social Butterflies. It has a lot of built in features that make your social life a little easier to manage.

So, this post came from Flock, without logging into my blog via Wordpress. (I think that is a pretty cool feature myself).

Cool, huh?

Blogged with the Flock Browser

Now that I have had a chance to really spend some time on Flock, I have to add a couple of notes. This is what *browsing the web* should be. All other browsers simply don’t stack up. Don’t get me wrong, there are a couple of things I love about Safari I love, one or two on Opera that just rocks and an Addon for FireFox that I can’t live without if I am adjusting my theme… but Flock has all the best and none of the worst PLUS intregrated social networking.

This browser is a MUST HAVE for anyone marketing themselves online. Period.

Suck At Recruiting? Here’s Help.

Posted by Cenay Nailor  | Published in Business Building Tools

If you’ve ever wanted to know what a "definitive" course on recruiting looks like, and what it contains, then check out the description I put together for you below.

Believe it or not, ALL of this and more will be covered IN DETAIL within Black Belt Recruiting, which is why it got such great reviews during it’s limited release a few months ago.

You’ll learn…

  • How six and seven figure network marketers close prospects on the phone without doing any "selling." (In fact, with Mark’s methods, the LESS you sell, the MORE people you sponsor!)
  • A sneaky way to get your competition to help you sponsor people into your business… without them even knowing it.
  • How to sponsor people who have already decided NOT to join your business!
  • My "wrong number" secret that lets you sponsor FAR more prospects than you are now… and with a LOT less effort.
  • Four words that will destroy your chances of sponsoring new reps — even the ones who already want to sign up! (When I stopped saying these four words — that 99% of networkers say during calls — my sponsoring rate shot through the roof.)
  • The secret of getting your prospects so "fired up" about your business you can literally sponsor them without even saying what company you’re in or what product you sell! (You may even have people call you a couple days later asking, "Ummm, what am I selling again?")
  • How to instantly "de-fang" loud and obnoxious prospects — and actually have them apologizing and pleading with you to show them the plan. (This secret works even if they were dead set against networking before!)
  • Startling facts you MUST know about sales people before you talk to them about your business. (Sales pros can be your best reps — but there’s a "trick" to talking to them if you want to sponsor them into your business.)
  • How to "position" yourself as a network marketing expert before you even sponsor your first distributor!
  • A weird (but effective) way to make money when distributors quit your team.
  • Why the best time to talk to a lead is AFTER they’ve talked to other network marketers! (If you do things "Mark’s way", you will never again worry if other networker talk to your leads — in fact, you’ll actually prefer they do.)
  • A little talked about fear every human being has… and how to use it to sponsor even the most skeptical prospects. (This tactic is often used by car salesmen, jewelers and other people who sell high ticket items. And it works even better for networkers.)

  • A brand new breakthrough (recently discovered by social scientists) that makes even total "newbies" irresistibly attractive to almost any prospect. (This incredible little secret is how some new distributors are able to sponsor dozens of people right off the bat. Here’s how they do it.)
  • How to get your prospects to ask YOU to make their decision to join your team FOR them. (This advanced recruiting technique makes sponsoring as easy as taking candy from a baby. And you will probably never hear about this anywhere else.)
  • How to get people at parties and other social gatherings to approach you and ask about your business… Without you having to say a single word!
  • In Black Belt Recruiting we’ll show you how to give yourself this "success aura" that instantly attracts new prospects to you and your business — even if you’re shy, introverted or have the personality of a toad now.
  • How to sponsor people in your local community… even if nobody likes you and everyone hates your guts.
  • Nine words that let you instantly control ANY prospecting call. (These nine words are like magic. Your prospects will feel "lucky" you even took the time to call them.)
  • Why you should almost never sponsor people who say they are "interested" in your opportunity. (I admit it — this was W-E-I-R-D when I first heard it, too. But believe it or not, when you stop sponsoring interested people, you will automatically see your sponsoring rates skyrocket.)
  • How to use an ordinary sheet of paper and a ball point pen to sponsor successful people, professionals and other business "authorities." (This has nothing to do with drawing circles or using the infamous "Benjamin Franklin close." It’s much easier than that, requires no effort whatsoever, and you will be astonished by how well it works on people used to being "in control" of conversations.)
  • How hanging up on a prospect can dramatically increase your chances of sponsoring him! (This technique works so well it’s almost spooky. Just be careful: You need to know how and when to hang up, and you can only do this with certain prospects.)
  • The one deadly mistake even experienced networkers make during three way calls that will destroy your sponsoring efforts.
  • How to talk to people you are sitting next to on a plane about your business without scaring them away. (And one simple "counter intuitive" thing you can do to get them almost begging you to show them the plan!)
  • How to get even your busiest up-line leaders to 3-way call your prospects at ANY time of the day or night. (Even if it’s 2 a.m. in the morning!)
  • When you should NOT send your prospects to a website presentation. (Even if they ask to see one!)
  • How to "recruit" your mailman to help you sponsor new prospects. (One guy recently built a huge downline in 30 days with this one secret alone. Here’s how he did it, and why you can, too.)
  • A secret way to almost guarantee your prospects don’t blow off your meetings and appointments. (This will virtually eliminate no-shows and late comers forever.)
  • How to mentally "turn the tables" on your prospects so they sell themselves on YOU… instead of you selling to them! (This amazing secret is used by every 7-figure networker on the planet. Here’s how to use it in YOUR business — no matter how experienced you are now.)
  • How to get the best and brightest prospects seeking YOU out — without spending any money on advertising. (Just use this technique Mark teaches and you’ll have people coming out of the woodwork asking about your business.)
  • The single most important thing you must do (and say) if you are talking to a highly analytical prospect.
  • The single most important thing you must do (and say) if you are talking to a highly skeptical prospect.
  • An "almost magic" way to s ponsor hundreds of international reps
    before your company officially opens in their countries.
Black Belt will finally be available to the public on Tuesday, July 22nd, but in the mean time, you can actually go watch an hour long training video interview Mike Dillard did with Mark last month at his home - for free - right now on this page…

4 Pillars Of Network Marketing Success

Posted by Cenay Nailor  | Published in Network Marketing, Other Authors

(Feel free to add this content to your site. Just keep the resource box intact.)

If you want your business to grow, you need to give your affiliates or downlines regular and comprehensive training. Only when your affiliates are equipped with all the necessary knowledge, skills, and abilities can your network marketing business finally provide you with a leveraged income.

4 Important Types of MLM Training

Regularity is not the only requirement for training your network marketing affiliates. Depth is also an important factor. Your training must touch all aspects of the network marketing business if you want your affiliates fully prepared for whatever challenge comes their way.

Writing
Grammar and spelling lessons may seem a waste of time to you and your affiliates at first, but rest assured that it’s a lesson worth learning. Quality of writing is often considered proportional to one’s level of professionalism. If you want people to respect your network marketing business, don’t give them any reason to treat you otherwise.

Writing is also critical in various stages of the network marketing business so it’s a skill worth mastering. You need to write when you’re adding content to your website, composing newsletters to distribute to your prospects and affiliates, or sending messages through your autoresponder.

Writing is virtually done every step of the way so make sure you train your affiliates long and hard on this.

Follow-Up

Making a follow-up call or letter is an art in itself, and it’s one that your affiliates must perfect. It’s quite rare for prospects or leads to respond at the first try and as such, follow-ups are almost always necessary. This, however, doesn’t mean they’re easy to do because they’re not.

The ideal tone for follow-up is assertive but not aggressive. It must not exert pressure of any kind. Your follow-up should also serve to remind in case your lead has forgotten about your call. It should also serve to persuade in case your prospect isn’t completely convinced yet of the viability of what you’re offering.

Lead Generation

On training your affiliates, another thing you should focus on is lead generation. A lot of network marketing businesses have failed simply because its owners are unable to generate their own leads and rely too much on buying lists of MLM leads.

One other thing you should work on is making your affiliates understand the need for high quality leads. Success in network marketing is based on finding the right persons to recruit and not just recruiting the first person who says yes to you.

As their mentor, be aware that it’s also your responsibility to keep yourself updated about the latest trends in lead generation and share it with your affiliates.

Internet Marketing

This is necessary for individuals who are more familiar with traditional network marketing strategies than those used in current times. These people are mostly unaware of how to launch their network marketing business online. It’s your job to help them realize their full potential and make the best of their businesses.

An introduction to would do for starters. Afterwards, teach them the basics of marketing like and bookmarking, forum marketing, blogging, and podcasting. Don’t forget to teach them the rudiments of ebook, article, and email marketing as well.

Now that you know the four essential types of MLM training, it’s time to develop your training formula. Once implemented, your network marketing business is set to explode!

Maximizing Your Success With Free Tools

Posted by Cenay Nailor  | Published in Network Marketing

MySpace.com is a social “networking” site that is free to use and is not just for teeny-boppers any more. There are more than 100 Million people with profiles on MySpace, and that number is growing daily.

More and more business professionals are discovering the world of connecting with other business professionals using a “guarded gate”. MySpace has put all the tools in place to allow you to connect with others in your business, or your prospective customers, without giving out your email address. MySpace, the champion of your personal privacy, allows others to connect to you inside the “community” with tools like…

  • Friend Request
  • Add Comment
  • Send Message
  • Notify Friends
  • Instant Messaging
  • Groups

Another feature that really rocks in my book, is the “Bulletin” service. You can broadcast a message to everyone on your “friend list”. Done correctly, this allows you to market your message, white papers, articles and other helpful information to everyone on your list, by writing it one time.

Although MySpace is pretty easy to use, there is a learning curve. You can’t expect to learn everything there is to know about MySpace in an afternoon. In fact, several months later, I am still discovering new features and new ways to reach out. You also can’t expect to set it up once, and then walk away. Like any ROM (Reaching Out Method) you use, you have to be consistent in your efforts. You can’t get impatient. But done right, MySpace can be a source of prospects for both your business and your products.

I have created a MySpace profile, which you can see here. Cenay Nailor on MySpace . I invite you to come check it out, request to be my “friend”, and let me show you how to reach hundreds of people, passively but “on purpose”. Would it surprise you to know that in the last 30 days, I have gotten 32 “prospects” via a link to a capture page that people can reach from my MySpace profile?

Now, I didn’t get to that point over night. In the beginning, it was slow going… request a friend here, request a friend there. I got 2-3 requests every week or two from people who saw my profile by clicking on my picture in the comments I left for other people. Today though, I get 2-3 friend requests a day.  Today, I also received commissions on two products I am an affiliate for that sold through that capture page, while I was sleeping.

This amazing service and free method of prospecting is so cool, that I am creating a set of video’s (starting at creating your profile) that will help you get started. There are currently two videos in the set, another is almost done, and at least 10 more coming in the next couple of weeks since this is a such an involved topic.

If you would like to see the video’s, please visit my How-To Videos site at http://www.Videos.CenayNailor.com and select the “Social Networking” link in Categories. To be notified whenever I post a new video, please sign up for Notifications by completing the form on the right when you get to the page. There is also a link at the top called “Get Updates“.
