The Buddy System

You know not to go hiking alone. Or swimming alone. You should also know that it is dangerous to go into network marketing alone. It is so much better to have a buddy or two to go with you.

Here's how it can work. You have a group of three to five people who commit to each other that they will work together and work hard. You meet together by phone 3 times a week or more to role play. Set a specific time and specific days.

What do you role play? Well, how about this situation. You meet someone at the bank that you haven't seen in awhile. They say, "Wow, you are looking great!" Now what do you say that could possibly end in sharing some info about Isagenix? That's one of the things you role play.

After you have piqued their interest don't tell them more. Just give them a CD or magazine and let the tool do the talking. Set a time to pick it up. Answer questions with a 3 way call to one of your buddies.

That is the second thing to role play. How do you do the 3 way call?

Your 15 to 30 second story is meant to have them ask you "how did you do that? Can I learn more about it?" Examples of the 30 second story are this. After someone says you look great you could say, "I feel terrific too! I have been sleeping like a baby and my energy is out the roof!" Then be quiet. If they ask you why you are feeling so good you can say you found a nutritional cleanse. Check out the post a few times ago entitled the Power of the Pause.

Those in my group should have a script for the 3 way call. If not, contact me.

Do not think that you will be in the same group forever. As you train those who come in they will break off and form other small groups. They will do the same. This is duplication.

Get a dream, form a team, go to work! Buddies make it fun!
