Think About This BEFORE A Reverse Marketer Traps You..

By Sean Grimes

Hello. Today I want to talk about Reverse Marketers again. These are marketers who hunt for other marketers who are struggling or are not having immediate success in their MLM programs. These reverse marketers main goal is to steer you away from your program. I’d like to give you a little advice on how to deal with these folks. They can be VERY annoying, but some of these guys are REALLY good. Trust me, I’ve been trapped before and it was very expensive too.

Reverse marketers are smart in that they don’t usually pay for advertising. Their main goal is to get on your list and to start a relationship with you. They then try to get you on the phone. In rare cases, they’ll even join your program and then steer you over to theirs. Soon after, they’ll quit your program. I’ve had people opt in to my mailing list and immediately try to cross promote their opportunity to me. These guys usually don’t do very well. The ones you have to worry about are the ones who contact you via email saying that they have a question about your MLM program. You call them and everything goes fine…at first. The next thing you know, the conversation switches from your opportunity to their opportunity. If this happens to you, you should get back on track with your opportunity or end the call. Stay on the phone long enough and they’ll trap you.

One thing these reverse marketers don’t realize is that they send VERY bad signals and don’t even realize it. If they can distract you from what currently building and get you to join their MLM business, for one, it shows them that you are not very dedicated. They know this already though in most cases. It also shows them that you more than likely were not having any success with your business. It should also show YOU that they are not out to build a strong team. Think about it. Why would I want to recruit a person into my business who demonstrates that he/she may hop from program to program? That wouldn’t do my business any good. And besides, reverse marketing is a reverse marketers best strategy. If you partner with him/her, they will try to teach you how to reverse market as well. In most cases, reverse marketers may have been closers or may have been involved in sales. Trust me. I’ve actually dealt with companies who hire people to reverse market. Everyone does no know how to reverse market. It requires a level of confidence that most people just don’t posses. Reverse marketers in most cases have a LOVE for getting people on the phone.

If you don’t want to fall into a reverse marketers trap, watch out for emails where the prospect is trying too hard to get you on the phone. We’re in a new age now. Most people will communicate via email. Once they get you on the phone, you can actually become their prospect really fast. You’ll find that many successful marketers do not list their phone numbers anywhere on the web. They do this to avoid these annoying marketers. Finally, if they do get you on the phone, end the call if they mention anything other than your business. Your focus should be your business only.

Anyway, I thought you’d like this post.
