To anyone who reads this, I have been posting like a crazy woman with no luck! Is anyone having this same issue. Can you give me some advice. I thought maybe it was the holidays. Please Help!!
Thank you

I notice there are days when there seem to be less viewing of the ad forum posts. I take it you are doing several forms of marketing - Ads, posts, emails, etc.

I have yet to figure out if there really are good days or bad days for people to sign up with our team.

I have had people join me any day - even a holiday! So, the best thing is to keep on doing the work. Follow the system your enroller has set up for you. Follow the system of those who are successful.

Reward always follows effort, but if we don't follow what successful people teach us, how can we expect to achieve the success they have earned?

I believe in Sowing seeds and the garden will grow.
BELIEF is very important.
And I always say that we have to be PATIENT! (that deserves a shout :))

Go back to the basics. Keep on keeping on - just prospect and recruit and the rewards will catch up to that effort. Do not worry about those who are not ready for our great offer right now. There are many who ARE ready and waiting for it and you WILL find them. We just don't know WHEN yet :eek:

Feel free to PM me if you have any questions you'd like to ask me.

Hey Brianna, your doing great, just keep positive and keep posting away. Once you hit 30 posts you will be able to advertise on this site too. Also don't forget about Cafemom, and posting on various sites. Remember you want have 5 marketing strategies going at once dont just post on one site. All your hard work will pay off. I had a girl call me last night who i spoke with the beginning of October who wants to sign up so you never know when the time is right they will sign up. It may not be today, tomorrow, next week or even next month but they do come back:) Call or email me with any questions

I agree with what Jaclyn wrote. Keep a positive attitude, look at your family - that is inspiration enough to keep it going.

Sow the Seeds - See the Harvest

your doing great! Consistency is key maybe tweak your ads a little bit. I would get with your enroller and brain storm ;) as always were here as well to bounce ideas. You want to have a few forms of advertising going on always..

Placing ads, working the post card method, forum boards etc..

I just love this - and they call this work? :D

Once you get into it you start to love marketing your business. Its fun to do :)

Thanks everyone! I am having a lot of fun and I have a great teacher (Jaclyn). I know there are people waiting for me to find them!!!

I know it's not easy right now. I'm posting a bunch of ads as well. Although, I got banned from Craigs for 90 days. I guess I posted more than they wanted from one email. Live and learn I guess ;)

Is that what Craigslist told you? I try not to put more than 1 post in a city and six a day - But I know how easy it is to get carried away because it's so easy to post!

Terri a way around that with craigslist is to never create an account that way they can't track it. Create a new gmail account email and use strictly for craigslist, webcosmo.com, classifiedads.com and don't create an account just post:D

Yes, Jaclyn gives great info.

When you post you will have to verify your phone # But ignore any emails you receive after that from Craigslist asking to "whitelist" your # or verify info or anything because it's not really from Craigslist. I checked :) .

You'll get some Spam, too but I just delete them. With gmail, they go nicely into a folder and you can tell they are spam. And Delete Forever. However, I did see a great deal on something I was looking for. :D

I've been with AP for five years and December is always a tough month. All anyone is thinking about is Christmas. But continue to build a pipeline that you can take advantage of in January. I find spring to be the most busy; I'm guessing because of tax returns. Also, mix up your advertising. Don't just post ads. Do flyers, and ad on your car, purchase leads, small town print advertising, etc. When you don't put all your eggs in one basket, you won't get discouraged that one avenue isn't producing because you will be too busy to worry about it.

That is great advice. When you have a few things going, you're always getting activity from at least one! Sue

Yes, actually Craigs put a "hold" on my email and the attached phone. I'm trying to work around it a little. I'm staying VERY LATE at work and using that phone line and a different email (the email was easy, the other is more of a dedication...it's 9:45 and I'm still here at work). I was posting 6 different ads in 6 different states everyday. I guess that was too much. So, now I'm doing 1 ad in about 34 different states everyday (or almost everyday). So far, I'm under the radar.

How dedicated you are! All your work and effort will pay off.

Make sure to clear your cookies and history. That should help.
And also disregard a lot of what Craigslist sends to you. I was even getting warning letters to whitelist my phone number and found it was a scam! I never respond to that sort of thing anyway.
I just keep posting and if they remove a post, I pick another state. It's best to limit one post per city and state.
