Crucial Tips to Overcoming Objections in Network Marketing

Posted: Mar 28, 2008 | Views: 262 | Bookmark and Share

An expression from your prospect of what appears to them to be a reason why they cannot buy or consume what they have a need, want or desire for what you have to offer is a good definition of an objection. Unless you are extremely rude to a person during your conversation, objections rarely have anything to do with you.

Objections always come from a FEAR (False Expectation Appearing Real). How many times have you had a fear of something with which you didn't even have an experience? I have a fear of snakes, but why? I've never encountered a snake, been bitten by one or even known anyone personally who has had a bad experience with a snake.

The reason we have a fear for something that is unjustified is because we assume we are afraid of it. It is this reason that people will be skeptical without even having tried your product or service. They heard a rumor through the grapevine that someone loses all their hair when they took the product you represent. Again, this has nothing to do with you.

The good news is that because assumptions are unjustified, there are techniques you can use to show a person the logic behind their way of thinking. Once you do that, you can then show how the person needs what you have enough to justify the logic of parting with their money. Taking this approach with a targeted audience is the essence of proper marketing.

After having been in Network Marketing for over ten years, I have heard just about every excuse in the book. Everything from "I have to talk to my doctor first" to "My neighbor's cousin took those products and her left toe turned green." Whether it's skepticism or procrastination, people make excuses because they don't have a strong enough want, need or desire for what you have to offer.

Talking to a spouse is the number one excuse that most people use as a procrastination technique, and it's not legitimate either . If it was, you would feel the need to call your spouse in a grocery store every time you are trying to decide what food to buy. But because the items in your cart provides a need, want or desire and the store is credible, you buy and logically justify it without talking to our spouse.

The concept of money and what is considered expensive or cheap is emotional. It's not based on fact because everyone makes different amounts of income and lives in different areas. A doctor in Iowa can make more money in Las Vegas, but not as much to equal the cost of living. It all comes down to a scale.

If you make a $100,000 a year in Iowa and a house cost $90,000 to live in, you're in pretty good shape. But if you pick up and move your practice to Las Vegas, you can make $150,000 a year but the same house will cost you about $300,000 to live in. The cost of living suddenly increases and this is how the concept of money becomes emotional.

Knowing the mindset of the person you are speaking with is an extremely important part of overcoming objections. In order to show them how they can justify the logic of trading their money for your product or service, you have to know what kind of person they are and what problems they have on a daily basis.

If you are talking with someone in New York City, for example, they are likely to punch you with questions to see how you will bounce back. This is not objecting to you or your product, it's simply their way of getting to know you. They put up a defense. You have to get to know them first before they will trust you.

You can't treat the person in New York City in the same way that you would a person living in California. That mindset is more focused on making you think they are wealthy enough to afford your product, but in reality they might not be able to. You would have to encounter their objections in a totally different way.

Overcoming objections in Network Marketing is something that must be mastered in order to succeed because it is a part of the business. It will never go away and you will always have to deal with it. The more eduaction you receive on how to properly market, the better your skill set will become and the more successful your business will be.
