You are in the right place to learn to get leads with no to low cost methods!  you will want to  Now I know you want Home Based Business Leads because you are here reading this now. The following are proven methods that work.  I want to warn you they are for Hustlers only! I know you will not have heard of every tactic here so you can lean a completely new idea or method of exposing you'r business!
The Master Mark Yarnell once said " -Every Great Marketer was once a horrible one."
I am going to show you right here there are 10 lead tactics that can dramatically help you in your business!

Now I am not saying drop what you are currently doing as far as marketing or generating but you are going out anyway and you are in the mode. When you are not blogging or writing articles you can go and utilize any of these methods and you are guaranteed to get some leads

I know I am going to get some pushback on this but I want to dispel this myth Non - Phone Use is dead.If you want to build a empire you are going to have to learn to use the phone... If you are in the market for building a empire with you network marketing company you have to use the phone.

Here is a gut check question : Are you a hoper or a hustler?

I hope this scratcher is going to be the winning lotto ticket... Do you have lotto mentality? Everyone starts somewhere( at the bottom )  the difference is the Hustler never gives up... the hustlers have the same challenges as everyone else  but they keep going.

There is nothing technical with anything I am going to share here...they do not require any college degree or computer skills!

For your information I ranked the hustler scale on 0 - 10 with 10 being you got to be going way out there that is ( HUSTLER MODE )

Here we go :

Tactic # 1 Use pre existing systems to create contact 
We are talking about a copy / paste strategy that literally takes 10 minutes a day. Your estimated lead generation on this is between 5 and 10 per day the skill difficulty is literally nill but for the sake we will give it a 1 out of 10 and all you have to do is look at something like presentations and write down the tidbits share on social media  watch the webinars do blog post and videos... SHARE CONTENT. When prospecting ask them if they generate leads online give them the Attraction Marketing funnel! You should lead with your primary company and when they say no to it you can say " Well how are you generating leads online" Profit from people that say no you can still generate leads...

Tactic #2 Work Events 
We are on Events here 2-3 hours a week and you can get 25+ lease per event. The difficulty here is a level 4 out of 10. I suggest 2 events per week. 50 leads with 7 leads per day. Find good networking events. get as many business cards as possible without introducing what you do. Don't wear any buttons don't wear t-shirts (company shirts) this is about relationships... meet-up groups and chamber events. Shoot the emails off make the phone calls. Don't attempt to close people at the event or the first exposure... Hey Joe - would you be interested in a side project if it did not interfere with your current business... Do you know anyone that's been affected by the economy that maybe would be interested in a side project.

Tactic #3 Zero Rejection Warm Market 
No rejection marketing. Its called doing me a favor for a reason. Your looking at 30 min a day
estimated 2-5 leads you got a level 3 out of 10 on the hustler rank... We are going for " being busy"
Let me set this up for you. Most people the top income earners in multiple companies are on the phone all the time. This is a mild way that you can call your warm market...
Use this line " Hey promise me if anyone mentions ______ to you promise you will come back and talk to me about it." If you got the wonder juice or magneto marketing  or the diet pill of the century. Then say the critical words " I Gotta Go" The more you say the less you make ( money wise )
Say

Tactic #4  Post It Notes 
Don't laugh.... We are talking 4 - 5 hrs a week estimated leads 15 + per day. This has a hustler rank of 2 out of 5 and we are going to accomplish this with Post It Notes Suggestion 100 post it notes per day creates 15 leads per day... This goofball tactic works... high traffic areas gas pumps, ect.

"It does not matter what works it matters what duplicates" - Eric Worre

What if you had 100 people on your team put out 100 post it notes per day do you think you might see some results

" Make 750 to 1000 a week no experience necessary call (XXX) - XXX - XXXX "
have it go to a sizzle line with press 1 transfer. Or you could have the prospect go to a website and capture page.

Have a generic call that gets them into a funnel...

I dare you to use the following line " Superstars Only - Make $50 to $300k Don't even call unless your are a producer and can prove it. "

Tactic #5 Realtor Signs -
Here is something interesting Time is 1hr per week
Estimated leads 5 + per day  Hustler rank of 7 out of 10 . While out and about driving call 5 - 20 realtor signs drive home different ways to find new ones,  Todd Falcone / Black belt recruiting (Mike Dillard ) People that work for commissions and advertising for business can benefit form this... Would you ever be open to a business that has nothing to do with real estate... Most real estate folks are hurting.

Tactic #6 - Free Seminar / Webinar 
Here is a tactic that 6 and 7 figure earners make and you can easily make between 5 to 20 leads and carries a hustler rank of 8 out of 10! This takes on average 4-5 hours per week.  Use and create content on existing products. Don't think everyone knows this stuff because that is not the case... Use Start the webinar and or seminar with their #1 question when it comes to the subject on ________.
Have the customers type out the question... Form that seminar / webinar you can pitch a paid / unpaid and you can you can offer it Free if they bring a guest... or the price is free with a testimonial... You will have to pay for a platform that can host a webinar...

Tactic #7 Really Going for Referrals 
People rarely do this takes we are talking 1 to 2 hours per week with the possibility of 5-50 leads per person. This carries a hustler rank of 6 or 7  should use this on every person... regardless of the outcome. You should generate at least 25 leads per day. You have to ask for it, but if your talking to them why not ask them. You got to know someone who has been affected by the economy or lost their job, do you mind if I share this with them? Do you know anyone who could use this to help them?

Tactic #8 - Card Grab 
See a rack at a business full of cards and they are potential customers... Time spent here is 1 to 2 hrs per week, estimated leads at 10 - 30 hrs per day this has a hustler ranking of 6 or 7 out of 10 the suggestion is to map out your area. People put out their card out there for business. The lazy person is not going to put their card on a bulletin board. Snag them and call them...
"Hey I am not sure where I found your number but would you be open to a side project that does not interfere with what you are currently doing?" " I saw your card or # on the pole ... "  You don't know who you next million dollar producer could be one of those people they are already business owners and entrepreneurs  and they shown that they are not afraid to get out there. The lazy person is not going to put their number on a pole... This is high on the Hustler Range but this WORKS!

Tactic #9 - Local Google Alerts 
This is Local News alerts from Google with a estimated 5 + leads a day and taking 1- 2  hours per week this strategy is a 6 or 7 on the hustler scale out of a possible 10 keep cards from past events that you have grabbed. You can set these up for cities around that you are targeting and you want to be auto - alerted... Build relationships don't beat them over the head. So when you hear that someplace is going out of business in the news contact those people on FB ( FaceBook )  and see if they are open to a home based business. Set up alerts for just your city... If someone become relator of the year I am going to reach out to them.

Tactic # 10 People You Meet 
I guess you could say I saved the best for last... this can take 1 - 2 hours per week and drum up 5 + leads per day. This has a hustler rank of 9 out of a possible 10! and  the key here is Don't explain or present and the thing you want to do is ( be busy ) If you meet someone anywhere.. Its because you are not confident with your approach it's all about the attitude. Do not pitch them! It's not about pitching  them! Keep it loose Family, Occupation, Recreation, Hey gotta run
You can be talking to them and then change the channel out there " Hey just throwing it out there are you open to any side projects that does not interfere with what you are doing currently?"
What ever your # 1 fear you fear will always be there.

Remember to use this EVERY SINGLE PROSPECT after they shoot down your product or service
Ask them how are they generating their leads. Ask them if they know how to get people chasing them to sign up... Send them to your funnel.

Don't forget your warm list, just don't be addicted to the outcome! Remember you have to talk to someone.

Tip: When you are out there marketing and out there in Hustler Mode you now have more content to blog about and shoot videos about!

It's not about online only or offline only its about How to get Home Based Business Leads by getting out there and doing a combination of both!

You want to figure out what people want when people buy a drill they want a hole not a drill. So what do people want what is you target? There are two titles and you are going to a seminar which one sound more appealing to you?
" How to use PPC to get more customers " or " How to generate endless leads using the power of the internet " Which one are you going to go to if you are a business owner. Remember give them what they want not what you are teaching.

We are continuing on our journey of the downward spiral of the most common Blogging mistakes and how to rapidly advert tragedy by steering clear of them.

That sounds a bit too fancy so we are going to keep you from screwing up your blog by not doing these things...

Call these the deadly sins if you don't have the FIRST ones in place then don't even bother with this...


#4 A new blogger will get very excited... LONGEVITY.... POSTING REGULARLY... biggest mistakes is infrequent posting... so we are talking about regular benefits... 

I know for a fact that Mr. Ray Higdon is making 6 figures monthly and he posts in the "work from home" "home biz op" nitch.. he has been blogging for a couple of years and being consistent... 
Never slack off with your momentum but once you have it you never loose it! 

Blog is such a asset and think of it like it an investment... All the top bloggers Eric Worry  ( Network Marketing Pro) he creates a video blog.... Ty Tribble MLM Blog.net blog on a regular basis. 

#5 The other side of the sin is lack of engagement with your readers. One of the best ways that Ray does he will as he will say in the video and write " If you enjoyed this post please like / comment / and share... Please like this... speaking to an audience and also caring about the opinion.

The point is building a relationship with your readers and trying help solve their problems. This is a common theme among the top bloggers.

There is a way to reward people on your blog and its like a game for engagement. 
Get top people on their blog and interview them....

#6 CLUTTER... This is a huge mistake you land on the Blog and its busy and its too busy
flashing and blinking banners 

You don't want the blog to distract the readers and get them to focus on your blog .

Have a clean look have a clean sidebar... Don't make your blog post like you are going to Vegas...
make you opt in form stick out and everything else blend in...


IF you found value in this post then Like, Comment, and Share below and if you have any questions hit me up on social media... thanks


Here is part 3 of 4 of the series that you can read by clicking here now...





If you want to find out some good blogging tips you are in the wrong spot here we are going over blogging mistakes and how to avoid them like the plague...

Everyone always wants to know the best well let's go over the worst first and chances are if you have been blogging for any length of time you have been out there putting content out then chances are good that you have made a couple of these..




Lord knows I have!



You know I don't consider myself by any means a major marketer.. I post a blog every day every other day of things that I pick up that can benefit others... Lately I have been studying different marketing methods and picking up some new strategies that I can implement. This good news is that once I learn these strategies I have them forever upstairs in my brain to use...

I subscribe to a publication that I absolutely love called Whats Working Now I mean if you are a marketer and you want serious how to information that can save you thousands of wasted dollars then this publication is a must have...

The guys Nick and Andrew know their stuff and they always have the latest and greatest marketers on sharing their nuggets of info...

But enough of the shameless advertising already lets get into the goods...

Here is # 7  Just because people are putting their content out there does not mean that people are seeing your content. You have got to be PRO ACTIVE!
Look at these rocking marketers Ray Higdon,com, Nick Haubner, Michelle Pescosolido these are class act marketers. You got to get people to your blog to consume... that is that you need to do a blog post .... then.... post it on FB... then Email you list! You have got to remind people... any social media would help to get eyeballs to your blog.... EMAIL YOUR LIST... Do em all!!! You never know which will work...  Do a video email your list! Do a blog post, email your list...

Create content ... well you get it...

What ever your goals are think of the ways you are serving other??

Onto # 8 - Quitting 3 feet from gold... People quit right before they have success... If you are not regular you are its not going to work... you got to be into making this a routine.. HUGE
Its all about routine... Keep momentum going.... People like it when you show up...
The final thing is doing keyword research and just going a little into SEO...
Tomorrow is 10 times easier then the first day...


#9 Writing for the search engines... These days SEO works but know this if you are new to the blogging game you want to ultimately ... Create trust ... Create value .... Create relationships...
Know this one of the blogging mistakes you can do is try to think that Google is not going to get smarter. Stop trying to speak to what Google wants and what your prospect / reader wants...
Think about instead of view of leads how can I create the most trust. The SEO Gurus know how to crank out insane amounts of money! There are big, big  players in the SEO realm but if you are brand new forget about that and think about this you don't a ton of leads to get big results...

I hope this post helped in keeping away from the most commong blogging mistakes.. If you found value let me know! Make it a awesome day!






Mr. Ray Higdon did a 90 minute webinar that was so  dang awesome I had to blog about it... !!

You can only get these webinars here and the best news is its only going to cost 1 dollar!

Master Presenter and Master Trainer and his hair is ever so perfect...

So I will share with you some killer stuff so here we go

How do you get people to want your information and how do you generate more leads

GIVE THEM WHAT THEY WANT?   Education... they wanna know how to and the why...

It's up to you to teach them...

Here are some things that can help you

Steps to More Leads 


1. Watch a training preferably a training you can be a affiliate of...
2. Take 3-5 tips from that training and put into a power point
3. Record that training with a call to action at the end or ( to your affiliate link )
4. Put that training behind a capture page.
5. Use your link when helping other prospect and market through your channels - if you are serious about building a team point them to a training that is pointing to a training that has a capture page and what your doing is creating a storehouse of ammo... if you keep it simple people will share it..

Example: 
PRO BLOG Academy (Ray Higdons personals blogging course)  - Go through training and learn 3-5 tips and do a training put it behind a capture page...use your affiliate link and say if you want more tips like this then go here and get this course... (give them affiliate link)

Invest... Learn...Teach...

NEVER DO A WEBINAR OR TRAINING WITH PUTTING A RECORDING BEHIND A CAPTURE PAGE... so people have to put in their information to watch it.. 

BIGGEST MISTAKE MARKETERS MAKE ( when doing Email communication ) 

They evaluate each email by " How much they make "  Don't draw people in with value but focus on building through building trust and relationships... don't slam them with every offer you get once they opt in.

HOW TO CREATE A FERVENT FOLLOWING...

1. Constantly read books, attend events, go through courses.
2. Relay your notes - your notes, you can consider them un-cashed checks... 
3 Bring value to them and have monetized links inside your content ( PS Lines, Banners, ect ) 

If you follow Ray's blog most of blog posts are not monetized... there are links here or there
but it provides value by what they say and what they have done...
go opt into your funnel and opt into your training and see if you would want to be on your own list...

KNOW HOW TO CREATE PRODUCTS...

A lot of people have a default and they cannot wrap their head around it so lets call it

" Monetized Training's" so instead of focusing on the products you can say " Hey instead of making a product can you make a training for me" ( do you see the difference )

Monetized Training Blueprint  


1, Instead of 3 - 5 tips for lead generating recording do 12+ tips and offer it for free at first, then collect testimonials and sell it for $5-$20 dollars ( use pay pal in beginning )

2. At the end offer a coaching program to teach them how to do what you just did. Dan Kennedy said "You should charge whatever you can charge with a straight face." You got to feel that out

Most people that don't create products  think they have to reach a certain success in order to create a product...  you don't ... You just have to know more then most... you can at the very least test it out.

ROCK SOLID ROUTINE 


A routine means nothing if you do not have vision. The vision is what you have of what you want to become ( as know as ) Having a vision will get you up every day... the second crappy day you will question yourself and you end up going backwards.


  • Exercise ( Put your phone Airplane Mode ) before go to sleep!
  • Put 12 Affirmations on phone on index cards take a picture on your phone ( or affirmations ) - anything you are grateful of this is extremely important before bed and your subconscious will focus on it. When you wake up read your affirmations again to set the intention of the day. 
  • Put on a audio book get to the gym and read your emails while on the treadmill.
  • Got through a product or course/book, ect
  • Produce a piece of content daily ( minimum )
  • If you want to break ranks in MLM, prospect X per day 
  • Attend events
  • Get a mentor if serious 
  • Monthly or weekly coaching calls (these are pointless unless you are going to implement) 
  • Keep an eye on Exposure agents ( people like WWN Whats working Now) and figure out how to help them. MLSP - No Excuses Summit and the like are ways to expose yourself and business. 
Ever has a Q and A session where the audience simply asks random questions and below was some of the responses ... nuggets of gold... 


TIPS: 

When you blog you can use programs like  Tribe Pro / Social Adder...is good but the #1 is consistency rather then magic... the #2 to getting a ton of traffic is relationships with your list. 

Build your list by putting out training, most people will create training once and then pound the hell out of it. Do a webinar every single week... It takes some time... be in it for the long run and be consistent

When starting a blog how do you get people to come is you serve them... most people quit right before the leads start rolling in. Instead of asking how do I get more visitors... ask how do you become more valuable. 

Don't teach anything that you have not learned.

Come up with a concept and come up with a keyword or phrase and focus on consistency and get a ton of traffic use tools and the reason why people

The best way to capture testimonials do it in the heat of the moment... ask "If you got value type to me the number one thing you got from value on the webinar?" and then go to the webinar log...and match up the name.. Or you could tell everyone to go to your Facebook page and have them type in something... 

What if you don't have any testimonials? Then you need to put more value out there 

If someone comes to your house and are hungry why go to the store go to your pantry - you personal library of training's to provide what they would want. 

How do you deal with overwhelmed? It's called procrastination its not overwhelm its procrastination either do something or don't do something... don't say someday just say NEVER instead. 

The bigger you get as a marketer the more people will mess with you so use a double opt in... 

Even if you are brand new marketing is just ONE thing it's really getting leads. Start doing business smart from the get go and get some leads and treat people with value...
