Get Leads Fast: Two Sure-Fire Methods

GET LEADS FAST!


Needs Leads? Here are a couple sure-fire ways to get leads quickly.

Ask Permission
To get great leads, you first need to give permission to someone to market to them. By this we mean, you can offer a complimentary newsletter or send a postcard offering them a complimentary gift. If someone decides to take you up on your offer, they will contact you to get the free item. When they do this, they have given you "permission" to market to them. This is also known as "opt-in" marketing. The person has opted in to your program. They are now a bona-fide lead.

After you get the response from them, you can then add them to your regular mailing list, follow up with them for sales/questions, invite them to sales events. If you have an enticing offer, you will increase the amount of leads you get! By offering a free newsletter with helpful tips (for cooking, children, beauty--whatever your business target is) AND a free gift, you will get better, more qualified leads actually contacting you!

Establishing yourself as an expert
OK, get ready to groan...this tip involves something some people hate so much they would rather have a root canal than do...it is public speaking. (Told you!) But once you get past your initial fear, think about it. If you want to market your business and service and establish credibility to numerous people at one time, try speaking at a live event. Even if it's only 10 people--these are now 10 new prospects.
 

 
 
If you have spent a lot of time and money marketing yourself to one, two or three people at a time, you should consider growing that audience. If you can book yourself as a speaker to specific groups in your local area, you can develop yourself as an expert on your subject. These events are going on in nearly every sized city (business groups, womens groups, mommy groups, success groups, networking events, etc.) The mere fact that you get up in front of others will help to establish you as an expert.

Do a little research of groups in your area. Identify one or two that may work for you and write them a letter explaining your business and a brief outline of topics you speak about. You will almost certainly get some bites, and you can start getting yourself in front of many new prospects. If you are shy, work as a team with someone else in your business or in a complementary business. Put together a "team speech" for even more confidence!

INTERVIEW: Lynne Cooper Hall - Younique Opportunity: See New 3D Lashes!

1. Tell us about your business opportunity--what do you represent? Younique Minerals Cosmetics 2. How long have you been involved with this? How did you get into it? I fell in love with the 3D lashes by Younique because I discovered that fake lash glue has Formaldehyde in it!! Like the stuff in embalming fluid! The Younique 3D mascara uses all natural green tea fibers (I could almost hear my eyes saying thank you!). It was soon after finding the 3D lashes that I realized that ALL the other products that Younique offers have the same amazing results with none of the nasty, fillers, paraben free, talc free, never tested on animals and hypo-allergenic. I started my business in 2013 and we've been steadily growing ever since! 3. What type of team members are you looking for? I am looking for people who love to chat, share their experiences, network and grow their business by sharing about amazing naturally based make up! This is a GREAT business for WAHM’s because the plat

WAHM Business Tip: Are you "Dialing for Dollars?"

Get your FREE sample of this fun book!   Are you spending enough time following up?   You probably work like crazy to get good leads, have interesting promotions and book sales events. But are you so busy focusing on getting NEW leads that you forgot about OLD ones? Your "warm" leads (leads who have already met you/ bought from you, etc.) are the best source for new business...and new recruits. If they have purchased from you, then be sure to put them on your priority list for follow-ups. If you contact each warm lead each month (by phone, email or mail) you will certainly find yourself with higher sales. It's easy to forget, get busy, get re-focused, etc., however if you establish a "tickler file" to keep yourself on track you will find it much easier. These files can be physical or electronic and will keep you in constant contact with your customers and potential customers. Another method is to s
