Doug Firebaugh's Top 10 Prospecting Tactics...

I hope everyone is having a great start to the summer!

September 30th is the deadline to become 7 star and qualify for the founders bonus pool! You don't want to miss out on this.

Don't let summer distract you from building your business. Make this the hardest working and most exciting summer of your life.

Use Zfreedom as leverage. Just get people to your site. Did you know that we are finding that 80-90% of prospects that actually read through the business marketing site and watch the videos are signing up?

That is HUGE! Use that to your advantage. Get as many people to your site as possible. There are so many ways to get people to your site. Use the "Marketing Calendar Example" as a template- you can print it off from the Zfreedom back office under Training.

Also, use all the Zrii meetings that you can (check http://BigRedCalendar.com) and get people out to them.

Now is the time to take massive action. Make sure you are enrolling people at the premium level. The $1500 kit has the most value and is the most duplicable. Plus, it will get you to 7 star the fastest.

Here are Doug Firebaugh's Top 10 Prospecting Tactics"


INFERNO Secret: You drive by more people in a week than you could possibly recruit in a year!! so....here is the question.... do you have enough folks to talk to??? If not....READ ON!!!! These tactics are what we have found to be extremely effective in creating leads and consistent people to call on. There are hundreds of ways to Prospect...these are just a few to get you started and on your way. Take one which appeals to you...and start immediately....

1) 'People that care about you.' A warm or Hot market is a great place to start...but ask yourself a question... who really cares about my success and future? Start there and ask for their help. You will be surprised how emotions can be of benefit to you...If they do care about you, They will listen to you and try to help......

2) 'People you truly care about.' Who do you truly care about and want to see have a great life? Start there. Your compassion and caring will come through and impact in a positive way. People liked to be thought of, and this is a way to make that happen, and also to show your feelings towards their future and Life......

3) 'People that you know that care about the same things... ' Who has a commonality with you in caring for the same things? Maybe in a club or church, or an association.....you have already established that you have something in common that matters to you both.....and your business would be a great way to expand that relationship......

4) 'Follow your Dollar.' Who do you do business with? Who do give money to on a regular basis... whether it is shopping or getting something repaired....or simply paying to have something done...Who did you buy your car from? Who sells you your clothing and groceries.... follow your dollar...there is a gold mine their in contacts and potential sales.....they may be hesitant about joining you ...but ask for referrals...they owe them to you.

5) 'The Goldmine on your desk.' Most folks have some form of a Rolodex or card case on their desk, or in their planner....but most have a listing of who they have gathered cards from...even in their palm pilot... Most Business owners have a great Rolodex...but l ess than 10% of the cards produce revenues for them.... turn your or their Rolodex into a Goldmine that produces a secondary revenue source for them, by contacting the cards in the rolodex, and increase the value of their contacts..... 'What percentage of your rolodex is currently producing you any type of revenue source? 2%? 5%? If there was a way to increase that to 15-20%...would you want to know about it?'

6) 'Referrals.' This business is not for everyone...but everyone knows someone who it is for.. Ask. And it really depends on how you ask, that determines the response.......' Obviously this isn't for you....but if you were me...who would be the first 2 people you would call to share this with? .....'...and then call them....' Hello Mary? My name is Doug...and I promised Tom I would give you a call.......to share an idea he thought you would enjoy.

Also, check out The Network Marketing Training Institute! It is a member site with an online leaning curriculum that covers every aspect of Success with a Home Business. We also have FRE-E Training Webinars every Monday night at 10 pm est that the content will blow your mind. Go to: www.mynmti.com and find out more details!

7) 'Business owners you know...or someone else knows them.' Business owners, especially small business owners are always looking for ways to increase value to their employees, and to increase the bottom line to their company. A lot of business owners have found Network Marketing to be a great secondary profit center for their business........and they all have associations they belong to....with other business owners......A good way to prospect them is to ask for their advice on Marketing.....and their help. Don't forget the Goldmine on their desk.

8) 'Stay at Home moms.' One of the fastest growing sectors in MLM is the stay at home mom....many women professionals are starting to leave their jobs and careers to spend time with their family... values seem to be changing, and with that comes a great opportunity to help them reclaim the income they lost...... and they already have proven themselves in the workforce... And over 70% of all networkers... are women......

9) 'Chamber of Commerce.' Every city has a Chamber...and most are all business minded....a goldmine for sales and referrals, and even some distributors.....join your chamber or at least attend some functions and get a listing of members...... and here is an INFERNO Secret to recruit....establish a relationship and ask for their help.......and refer business to them...

10) 'Civic/Charitable organizations.' Join a Civic group to first make a difference in your city..... not just to network. And become known as a go getter and helper, and as you do these things, ask for people's referrals.....and maybe a time you could let them try your products.......but understand.....FIRST make a difference in the group, and then you will have a better chance of making a difference with them with your business...

My 5 Favorite Marketing Tactics...

Hey Everyone!

Wow! What an amazing convention. Zrii had the biggest official launch in the 65 years of this industry. Over 4500 people were there to witness Zrii's launch. It was stunning.

To watch a really cool recap of the event just go here

After witnessing this event I realized how BIG Bill Farley's vision is for Zrii. I feel blessed to be a part of something so special and unique.

Of course, now that everyone is starting to gain a fuller appreciation of where this company is going people want to know how to grow their business more efficiently and effectively.

And that is what Zfreedom is all about. If you missed my call the other day (I had technical difficulties and could not record it) then here is my 5 favorite marketing tactics:

* Please note that these are my 5 favorite offline tactics that I believe everyone can do. For even more marketing tactics please print off the 100 Tactic Checklist and Marketing Calendar Example from your Zfreedom back office.

1. Carry the big bottle of Zrii everywhere you go. This is amazingly effective and it doesn't cost you a penny more. But, be prepared to give out a business card or sample bottle when someone asks you about it. Don't try to explain what it is. Tell them it is way too special and great of a product and opportunity to explain it in a few minutes. Get their commitment that they will visit your Zfreedom site.

2. Use the fridge pack. Pick 6 people a month (people interested in health and/or making money) to hand out 5 mini bottles to with your sticker labels and The Health and Prosperity Report (Order the Health and Prosperity report at www.ProsperityTools.com). Get a commitment from them that they will go to your site. Make sure you call them after 5 days.

3. Pick 10-20 places (i.e. yoga studios, health and wellness centers, barber shops, business centers, etc.) to put the Success From Home Magazine in with your sticker labels on them. Make sure you have a sticker label with you name, phone number, and website on the front and back of the magazine. Also, put a sticker label on the DVD that is located in the middle of the magazine.

Tip: Sign up the owner of the clinic or store if you can. Tell them that you will build their business for them. All you have to do is set up a display in their store with some empty Zrii bottles, brochures, flyers, and business cards. You do all the work to get new distributors and customers from the display and place them in the business owner's downline.

If the owner will not do a joint venture with you don't worry about it. Just settle for leaving a magazine in their store.

4. Put up a car decal (on your car window). Something catchy like,
"Tired Of Living Pay Check To Pay Check.
Earn Thousands More"
Phone number
Website

You can probably get this done for fairly cheap. You can even put a big Zrii bottle image beside the words to make it look really sharp.

5. Network. Join clubs, become a member and associate with wealthy people, and spread the word of Zrii. You can join any sport club like mountain climbing, hockey, basketball, volleyball, etc. Or a chess club. Just go and network by joining a club or team of your choice. Just remember to carry your big bottle of Zrii everywhere you go!


BONUS: CALL EVERYONE YOU CAN POSSIBLY THINK OF THAT IS INTERESTED IN HEALTH AND MAKING MONEY. GET THEM TO GO TO YOUR ZFREEOM SITE! USE THE WARM MARKET WIZARD.
