Here is a recap of his tips and five critical elements to have success when calling network marketing prospects.

1.Use a good connection and a headset.

Todd points out, and I agree that it is good to be able to move around.

It brings the energy levels up and that way you are not tied to a phone. If you have new equipment try it out on a couple friends or team members before using it to call prospects.

You get one chance at a good impression on the phone!

When they answer introduce yourself and let them know where you are from. Use their first name when asking, Hey Is Bob there? or Hi Bob.

2. Match the pace, volume and tone of message prospect or customer.

This is important in building a rapport with this new person.

The more that you are like them in these items the quicker you will be able to build that important bridge quickly.

If they are comfortable with you on the phone, the better chance that you have of building a connection.

3.Make it personal if you can.

A little research on Facebook first can be handy, now I know Todd does not spend the time to do this. 85% of my leads, prospects and customers are on Facebook. It allows me to find some things in common before I connect with them.

Wait on the friend request though until you have a relationship started or they at least know who you are.

4. Use the prospects first name

When someone answers, quickly just ask if  "Joe" is there. I always just say "Hey Joe", if the person answering is not Joe then they will get "Joe " for you.

You have to be natural, comfortable and in charge. This all comes with time, it comes with practice. The best way to practice is calling leads!

Using the first name will sometimes lead them to believe that they have spoke with you before or may know you.

Stay away from using their full name, seem personal and  you will get their interest quicker.

5. Introduce yourself.

I use this and Todd recommends that you introduce your self first and last name,

where you are located and the first question directly following then pause for an answer.

It is important as you are being personal with them yet professional, your location gets them realizing you are a real person. Important!

They have to know, like and trust you to want to do business with you. This introduction should be directly followed by the reason for the call and a question. Here is an example

"Hi Joe, this is Ken Kinstle, here in Rapid City South Dakota. You signed up for some information at my website. Are you still interested in making an income from home?"

Then pause.. It is critical to do the introduction, question and pause.

Listen and take notes, even their tone in a recorded message will tell you a lot.

Make a note on everything that they tell you and determine if this person is someone that you will want to do business with.

Leave a compelling message. When calling people, you will leave a lot of messages! Match their tone if you have heard it..

Use your introduction and ask them if they are serious to return your call.

Leave your "direct" phone number. I use my personal cell phone number and tell them it is your personal number.

Let them know early that you are personally accessible to their calls and needs.

The hardest thing to do is GET Started. This gets better and more comfortable. If you don't want to use the phone STOP NOW.

Do not take it personal,  you will get hang ups, crabby people and everything else. You will have to NOT take it personal and call the next person, this also takes time.
Be confident and real. Being comfortable takes following the script until it becomes natural.
The more you practice, the more comfortable you will be and the more success that you will have!
