If so...is there some sort of script that you use that is specific to A******?


I'm just looking for other avenues for prospects/business buildersonce my warm market runs out. TIA for your help!

I have heard of tim sales and he has a good cd called the invitor or
something like that but it gives you converstaions of leads that were
purchased its not arbonne specific but it could give you a start pm me back
if you cant find the website

I've been wondering a lot about this myself lately. I have no idea where I'd start with purchasing the leads, and I wouldn't want to waste a bunch of money in the learning process.

Thanks newlives!!! I will try and do a search on tim sales.


AtHomeLeah - do a search here on the board for leads. That's what I did and came up with some pretty reputable companies. The Network Marketing Forum on this website is also a great resource for leads.


I purchased leads from womenleaderscoop.com yesterday, but have not tried them out yet. I was hoping to find a script of some sort before I start calling them.Edited by: antoninab

mlmleads.com has terrific pre-screened leads and scripts and training calls


Here's a link for mlmleads.com (http://www.mlmleads.com/?4058)Edited by: cassandra

Thanks, Cassandra! smileys/smiley1.gif

Antonia, are those leads local? I've never purchased leads before but was thinking about it.

mlmleads can be either local to your area code or gender specific, but not both... do not get the double opt in... you want quality not quantity... it's better to have 15 prescreened prospects than 100 "suspects"smileys/smiley36.gif

Cassandra,



Have you had any luck with those leads? Sales? Sponsorship?

Antonia, are those leads local? I've never purchased leads before but was thinking about it.


No, unfortunately they're not local. But there are other lead companies which provide local leads. You may a little more for them though.

Cassandra - I'm definitely curious to hear about your response to Beverly.


It seems like a number of us know WHERE to buy leads but I haven't seen much testimony to how successful or useful the leads were.

I have: one sign up, 2 currently sampling products, 2 not interested in biz but want products. This was 5 for 5. The men that I did speak with couldn't get past the idea of selling lipsticks. I followed Enrique's script to the letter, and after calling and confirming that they were definitely looking for a way to make money from home, I gave them a biz op number to call and my website. I then sent out sample packs to them, then called them 2 days after I knew they received the packages (though the one who signed up called me pretty much right away- after using the samples one night and one morning).She said, "dang! this is better than any skin care I've ever tried. I can definitely sell this!"smileys/smiley36.gif Go for the gender specific prescreened ones- female, or local prescreened if you don't mind having more men leads. I called one guy and I knew he was 62 from the info, anyway- his voice was so rough and his "hello" sounded more like a "what the he11 do you want?" Sounded really mean, I know I shouldn't have, Ishould've given him a chance, butI hung up on him. smileys/smiley9.gif Then another guy I called, his wife answered the phone and I asked for "Dave" and she asked me, "who are you and why are you calling my husband?" smileys/smiley5.gif Good Grief! smileys/smiley36.gif Another guy said he can't get in our company because his wife sells for a competitor. smileys/smiley18.gif So, that's why I say, get the gender specific-female.smileys/smiley36.gif

Wow, Cassandra. I'd say it was worth the purchase then!


So, without sounding completely stupid, it sounds like you can purchase JUST female (or JUST male) leads or local leads (that can be either female or male). Can you purchase local leads that are JUST female? I want to make sure I understood exactly what you've recommended. And did you purchase them from the website you mentioned? Do you know HOW they've pre-qualified the leads? I had purchased leads once before and had no success. I'll never know if it was the quality of the leads or my script.


By the way, who is Enrique? I'm not familiar with his script. Maybe I've missed something along the way......

Enrique is the guy that does the mlmleads.com website. I am very interested in the answers to saints questions as well.

You can get local prescreened or not local prescreened, I don't think you can get gender-specific prescreened, I thought you could but I just looked and couldn't find them. Sorry for the mistake. You could contact them to verify, I thought for sure I saw it before, could be wrong, I don't know smileys/smiley5.gif Anyhow....


They are Pre-screened, meaning they have called to make sure the people truly are interested in earning money from home and these people are interested and are waiting to be contacted. The "double opt in" ones have not been called to see if they are truly interested. Enrique has a script available to those who purchase leads, and training calls to listen in to.

ok, thanks. Actually, this thread has triggered another thought. It's regarding the follow up I should do on a health fair that I was a vendor at this past Friday. I think I'll just start a new thread.....


Ines

Hey Cassandra! I just wanted to thank you for sharing this resource. I ordered mine today & Enrique is great! Listening to some training now. smileys/smiley1.gif

Jennifer, please keep us posted with your results!!

remember everyone--- listen to the training calls first, before making any calls, and follow his script. This is valuable! Enrique teaches you how not to sound like a salesperson and the attributes to look for in people, read all of the info on the phone scripts page! It's fabulous! It really gives terrific insight. Keep us posted!

are the training calls free? I looked a little on the website but without filling out the forms requesting information it's hard to figure out if the calls are free or not.....

The training calls and scripts are for people who purchase theleads.

Antonia, Jennifer, and Cassandra....


Do you have any updates on how your leads have worked for you? I am seriously considering this as one option in addition to what I am doing already. Also, Cassandra, is there any kind of referral bonus for you? I would want you to get credit if there is smileys/smiley1.gif


I read a few articles on leadsat www.mainstreetmlm.com (http://www.mainstreetmlm.com) today, what a great site that is! There is a lead company listed there...I think CEM? Has anyone had experience? The prices seemed very high but I guess you do have to pay for quality! I think I would like to try the mlmleads next month. One of the suggestions is that you try leads for a minimum of 6 months, I guess if they started to work I would be able to afford it!


Any more tips/results/ideas to share on this subject?

The best part of mlmleads prescreened leads is that these people are waiting for you to contact them with information on how they can earn money from home. You just share Arbonne with them. It's some phone tag in the beginning, but all you need to do is give them more information (3 way into a biz op call or have them listen to the sizzle call online, and send them samples or meet with them if local), then once they've had the information they can make an educated decision on whether this is a fit for them. I do get credit for referrals, but that's not why I told everyone about it, I did because I've found them to be really good leads, especially for those of use who aren't working with our warm market. Here's a link for mlmleads.com (http://www.mlmleads.com/?4058)


Another one that I want to tell you about ishealthcustomers.com Instead of leads of people who are interested in a home based business, this is people who are interested in healthy products. You can filter out the information and get the exact profile you want. It is a monthly fee depending on how many credits you get (the profiles cost credits and each filter you put on adds moreto the cost, like if I am looking for someone who wants to lose weight in Pennsylvania and is willing to spend$60-100 a month, then that costs mea few dollars more than if I wasto not have any filters on at all. I just got this and haven't acquired my profiles yet, but the virtual office is AWESOME!!! I'm even placing the info I have from mlmleads here to help me track phone calls, emails, samples sent, etc. You get 3 websites with this, my links are: 4product (http://www.healthycustomers.com/4product); 4referrals (http://www.myhealthycustomers.com/4referrals); 4income (http://www.myhealthycustomers.com/4income). You also have an option to buy videos that you can send people a link via email to view, you pay per view to have your prospects watch these videos (which may tie in nicely using mlmleads).Edited by: cassandra

I haven't purchased the mlm leads yet.

Antonina- sorry to spell your name wrong smileys/smiley9.gif


Cassandra,


Thanks again for sharing! That second site looks great as well! I love how much it can be customized and the training/tools they offer! Would love to hear how you do with this site as well smileys/smiley1.gifI will be trying this soon. Between these two sites it seems there would be a good mix of people interested in both product and biz op.

Just out of curiosity....how do you guys pay $250 a month for this? It
sounds like an awesome idea...but for someone that is just starting out
I was wondering how to afford it.

TIA

$250 a month??? smileys/smiley3.gif I started with the least one for $40 a month, but then when I got into the system, I changed it to $20 a month for use of the virtual office assistant. Then if I see a profile that fits my filters, I'll purchase credits as I need them. $20 a month for the office part of it is worth it to keep track of phone calls, emails, I am using it for all my contacts I already have, I can put them in different groupings, ie- hosts, wholesalers, etc. I can even make a folder for each product line and so like this month with the mens set being on special, I would be able to open the group "men's set" and see all my contacts who are either using or are interested in the mens set, so I'll know who to call. In my opinion this is pretty awesome and well worth it.

Ohhhhhh.....I misunderstood your prior post. I thought you said you were paying $250 a month. Sorrysmileys/smiley9.gif

Have you called any of the leads yet?

I haven't acquired any profiles yet, I won't til after the holiday weekend, but the virtual office assistant I've entered everyone I'm already working with into the contact list, it's awesome!

Is there something like the virtual assistant available by itself...I mean like a program or something that can be purchased? I put something together in Microsoft Access but didn't care for it. I have been searching for quite a few months for something like this. I know we had someone on this board awhile back that was putting something togetherbut I haven't heard back that it is up & running. I contacted her severaltimes but lost the contact info.

there is mlmeasymoney that can be tailored to our company, I tried their free trial and didn't like it much, but I know others who rave about it.

Did it allow you to do what you are doing with the virtual assistant? Things like tracking what your clients or wb are using, phone calls, detailed tracking info for prospects, etc?

Maureen

Is this something you are already involved in? Is there any additional cost required once you take the 200 free leads?

Hi-


I just signed up after I read this thread. I suppose they want you to buy more leads, but they say that the 200 are free and they want you to promotethe site. I have been curious about these sites so I figured I'd give it a try. I'll let you know...





Maureen

I tried the mlmeasymoney. You can get a demo of it. I didn't really care for it either. It is nice that they populate all our products. But I couldn 't find a place to input things that I loan out, like books or whatnot. Hopefully the company is going to come out with a contact management system eventually.

Hi -


I just got my 200 free leads. I actually called the guy up and spoke to him about the whole offer. The 200 free leads are for people who are looking for home-based business - just addresses, no tel. number or e-mail because of the "Do Not Call Registry" and anti-spam laws. I suppose not bad for a postcard campaign.There are leads that you can buy - 500 for $450 or 200 for $260 - for people who have specificallyinquired about the A***** opportunity and are waiting for someone to contact them. These are prescreened and verified. They will also look at your websiteas part of this offer and have copywriters revamp your business opportunity offer to get better response.Plus, by advertising this offer for them, they willpay you$50 for the first 3people who request the 200 free leads and $100 for the fourth and over when they mentionyour referral code.


I don't have much experience with this stuff, so tell me how you think this sounds.


Also, if you want your free leads give this a try... I' wondering if they really do pay for referrals.

Maureen, ask the folks over in the Network Marketing folder, they have more experience with leads and someone there may know more about this one.

Here is something else to look into as well, danijohnson.com her script book is all you will need. It is not specific to any company or product. It can be used for candle prospects if that is your business and they work, and another option has anyone considered generating your own leads with a lead capture page.

thanks

Michelle

I could be wrong on this, perhaps I don't understand how lead capture pages work, but I don't think it's really somethingthat is going to be beneficial since there are so many restrictions placed on internet marketing with the company.


If you do one it would have to be extremely generic since you can reference anything about our company. You also can't link to your personal website. I don't know how well generic lead capture pages work so maybe it would still be beneficial. I also remember reading in our policies that we couldn't use auto-responders.


If I'm off base please let me know. smileys/smiley1.gif

Ok that is valid but you don't have to mention the company or what it is about on the page. You can do this from the stand point of building a home-based business, target moms, dads, students anyone looking to work for themselves from home.

After you have the information you call the lead at that time is when you would do a brief pre-screening to see if they are truly serious about building a home-based business, after getting some informatioin that will help you to decide what information to send them to you can send them to one of the presentations at the site or your site if you have one; if they let what the see and or hear after the presentation.

Do a post-screening to see what they think, and close your new team member. If it happens to be someone local, if you do one on ones or parties invite them to the next
one.

Has anyone used flyers to generate leads locally. I seen a cd on the site that has flyers and other tools that can be printed.

thanks

Michelle

Why not just use the free phone book instead of wasting your money.

You have to be very careful because of the Do Not Call list...it could cost you thousands of dollars if you violate it.

1. Do Not Call Registery


2. Leads usually have filled out a questionaire of some sorts and have given their information. Some do soin the hopes of being contacted. Not all, but some, that's why it'sa numbers game. Purchasing leads is risky because you don't necessarily know how they came across the form in the first place. Were they actually looking? Or are they getting paid to fill out a form? That's why some feel that their own lead capture pages work best. I have a "formsite (http://fs7.formsite.com/cassandra/form511126612/index.html)" link to my website that would allow anyone to fill out a form and it goes directly to my email. I suppose this could be used as a lead capture page and I could find places to post the link and entice people to fill out the form. I don't, but I could, it's generic enough. Except the pure, safe, beneficial across the top. Anyone know if that is trademarked too? Anyhow, the whole idea behind it is to get people to request for more information rather than to completely Cold Call complete strangers.Edited by: cassandra

Good points, Michelle. I don't really know much about lead capture pages etc. I've never really thought about it much b/c there are so many guidelines about what we can & can't do as far as advertising & I've never really heard it mentioned in any of our trainings. Doesn't mean it isn't a good avenue to try though. Interesting!


Teresa is right about the Do Not Call list. Huge $$$. Plus cold calling that way can just be brutal, very few people have the stomach for it. Def not duplicatable.

Yes, Cassandra it does like the formsite could be used in the same way. I agree that we have to be careful about calling. I am not a fan of doing cold calls anyway but I have no problem if someone has requested additional information.

I do calls all day at work, you would think I would not have a problem but I would rather deal with prospect who do want more information by their own hand. thanks

Michelle

Has anyone considered the new company issued business card which can also be used for leads? It's 2 cards; one cardhas your name and contact info on one side with an opportunity message: "Could you use extra income? ...", the other cardhas spaces for their name and contact info (also has a "Best time to call" section) with"I would likeinformation regarding: [] The A____ opportunity OR[] A____ products". They can fill outthe card with their contact information, detach it, and mail it back to you. So you could do something like distribute your business cards with a piece of candy attached ...

I have those business cards and I REALLy like them. I am still trying to think of some creative ways to use them but I think they are a great investment :)

Good Morning Everyone!


Here is a suggestion regarding business cards:


Many years ago I attended a 3-day business seminar. It was geared toward hair salons and spas, but it works great with this business as well. If you don't already, keep a stack of cards in your purse, your briefcase, etc... whatever you carry. I ALWAYS leave a card with my tip at a restaurant. When I shop for clothing, I always leave a card with the lady who helped me. My doctor has cards as well. He has fallen in love with many of the nutrients and has sent patients my way. I have even given cards to ladies I see at department stores shopping for skin care and cosmetics.


It works! Get those cards out! I have made stickers to place on the back that say, "Care to try some free product?" or "Need a career change?" Many slogans will peak interest. Use your imagination!
