Mistakes on Social Media you should NEVER Make
If you’re trying to recruit prospects for your product or service on social media, and you’re not getting the results you want (or you just want MORE results) then this is a must-read!
Because there’s a chance that you’re making at LEAST one of the three deadliest mistakes on Facebook, and it’s holding back your results.
Mistake #1
Pitching Right Out Of the Gate with New Prospects!
This is one of the fastest ways to kill any hope for building rapport with new prospects on social media.
A number of things happen as soon as you do this.
First of all, you automatically make them feel like they're just a SALE to you! People do NOT go on social media to be sold to. They go on to be social!
For instance, how would you feel if you accepted someone's friend request, and the first thing they said was something like "This is amazing business, join me!" talking about their opportunity.
It sounds crazy and obvious right? But people are doing this every single day on social media and it's KILLING their business. (And you might be one of them!)
Deadly Mistake #2
Not Having YOU Anywhere On Your Profile!
When you start talking to a prospect on social media, the first thing they're going to do is go and check you out! They WILL go and look at your profile and your timeline to see what kind of things you’re posting.
Essentially they want to get to know you a bit.
So, when there's no YOU on YOUR timeline (a picture of you, and an idea of who you are) it demolishes any know, like, and trust factor that you just had the opportunity to create!
And if you want to close people into your business, or have them buy your products or use your services...you must have exactly that. KNOW, LIKE, and TRUST!
They must look at you as an authority figure with credibility. A leader they should follow, because YES, they’re looking for someone to lead them.
They also want to ensure that you're serious about your business!
Having no YOU on your timeline also shows a lack in your self-confidence. And people do not follow people with no confidence.
Heck they might even write you off as fake or a scammer!
That's exactly the opposite kind of impression that you want to make with new prospects, if you want to recruit and build your business on social media!
Deadly Mistake #3
SPAM, SPAM, SPAM all over your timeline!
You’ve definitely seen this going on!
The sad truth is that spamming will NEVER get you enough leads and sales to grow a successful business. You might get some leads and sales sporadically here and there...but it will be detrimental for the future potential of your business!
When you've got spam on your timeline, the first thing people think is "Uh oh, I'm just going to get pitched!" And nobody goes on social media to get pitched!
It simply turns people off!
There's one other important reason you never want to do this.
When someone sees you doing nothing but SPAM your products all over your wall, even if they are interested...they may not want to go through YOU to get further information on your products or opportunity.
They can simply Google it, find another rep, or a replicated company website... OR hop over to an ecommerce site to buy it!
Here’s the deal…
YOU are the gatekeeper of all the information for your products and opportunity. When you do a proper engineering, and someone is interested, YOU are going to make the sales and sign-ups!
Need Proof?
Have you ever seen a leader in the industry that SPAMS their timeline? The answer is no!
Which means if YOU want to be perceived as a leader (and you definitely should if you’re serious about your business)...
Then you should act like a confident leader and never SPAM your Facebook wall either!
Much love ❤❤❤
