Alright, I know that question is usually a given. To put it simply, who isn’t? It’s actually not hard to find a prospect/lead because almost anyone you talk to falls in that category. That’s right, people you talk to while going about your daily life are prospects. OK, it’s not exactly that simple, but for the most part it’s true.
Here’s a great example to think about next time you’re in a similar situation.
When you go to a grocery store, get the items you want, and stand in line at the checkout station, you’re in a prime spot for talking to a prospect; the person that is checking you out is your “target”. Do you think they would like to make $2.00 more an hour? In most sane cases, it would be a given. So, do you think they’d like to make $20 an hour? What about $200 a day? Hopefully you get the picture.
Almost anyone would like to make more money, why do you think a lot of people try to move up in their jobs? Most of the time a job seeker is looking to make more money than their previous or current job.
Next time you’re at a cash register, ask the person checking you out the following…
“How would you like if I got you a raise of $1 more an hour?” …I’ll bet they give a positive response!
You see, people you meet, talk to, communicate with, and pass by every day are ordinary. What I mean is that your leads don’t have to be bought through the internet or people you already know – everyone is a prospect/lead in some way. You need to put forth the effort in finding them, and simple genuine conversations can be very powerful (and are free).
Make an effort to talk to someone everyday about your business, product, or opportunity. Like they say, the only bad question is the one not asked…so get out their and ask people. You’re already doing that through online advertising except in an indirect way. Verbal communication will show your leadership, commitment, and trust – buying leads doesn’t do the same thing.
