The Power Question

I run into so many network marketers who tell me that things aren't going very well. They can't find any prospects. I think, "What are you crazy? There are 300 million people in the U.S. alone!" So, I teach them the "power" question and send them out into the world. Amazingly, most come back and tell me how well their business is doing now that they are using the power question. So, now I'm going to teach it to you too.

Here it is: "What do you do for a living?"

Powerful isn't it? Actually, it's simplicity does give it power. People will always respond. They will never say no. Plus, they will give you useful information. Knowing what they do for a living tells you what might motivate them.

Next you could say, "Wow, you probably make a lot of money doing that, don't you?" What are they going to say? What would you say? Probably something like, "I do alright" or "not really."

Then you ask, "If I could show you something that would enable you to make double or triple what your making now and enjoy more time freedom, would you be interested in taking a look?"

They will either reply "yes" or "no" or ask "what is it". If "yes" or "what is it", say "That's great. It will take some time to explain, so do you have a business card?" If not then ask them to write their name and e-mail address, so you can send them some information and their phone number so you can call to answer questions. Let them know that there will never be any pressure, just a great opportunity for them to gather information and make an educated decision.

It's powerful and it works!
