Ever wondered how some people get referrals in network marketing?
I am Jackie Ulmer owner of StreetSmartWealth.com and founder of the StreetSmartWealthAcademy.com teaching you the skills to pay the bills in network marketing.
Let’s talk about how to build a referral base of people who may not use your network marketing products and services; may not be on your team; but who could become one of those great referral ambassadors for you.
Not everyone’s going to say yes your network marketing business. Or products. What they might say yes to is becoming one of your best brand ambassadors or referral partners for your network marketing products and business. As you begin doing those three things that we do in network marketing:
Meet people.
Share with them what you do.
Then make an offer.
As you work to build a network marketing referral base, you want to develop the skill set and the language to know the right people to talk to to ask them who they might know who would be perfect for your product and ultimately who they might know would be perfect for your business opportunity.
We have two opportunities in network marketing - products and the business. Keep them separate to begin with.
Let’s say for instance you’re in health and wellness. Who do you know in Health and Wellness who might be a great referral for you? Somebody like a chiropractor; holistic health providers; massage therapists.
Think of those you know who sell life insurance or health insurance.
It’s been said, for instance, that CBD oil can help with anxiety. It’s also been said that it can help with issues around stopping smoking. So if you are with a CBD company, speaking with someone who sells health insurance and sharing what you do could be helpful. They may want to refer some of their clients who smoke, to you, because once they quit smoking, they can often get a discount on or a lower cost for their health insurance.
If you sell great skin care you might find that aestheticians, hairstylists and salon owners could become great referral partners for you.
They may not want to market the products themselves for a number reasons. But they might be willing to give you a great referral, especially if you’re a client of theirs, too
I like to do business with people who do business with me as well. Well mutually beneficial for both of us.
I have great products; everything from follow-up systems to my group and one to one coaching. I want to buy from those people who invested in me I want to return the investment of them
As you’re building your business don’t forget to ask for referrals. Make a list of those people who might be the most logical people to refer your products and business to.
