Five Tips to Build Your Downline

How do you build your downline? What really is the key to success with network marketing? Listed below are my five favorite tips to grow your downline quickly, and build it right.

1) Look for Leaders: The easiest and fastest way to build your downline is to sponsor LEADERS. When you sponsor someone with previous network marketing experience who already has a large contact list (or downline), they will probably bring people into the business with them when they join your team. I’d rather sponsor three key leaders who have lots of influence, than sponsor 100 people who don’t have any previous network marketing experience.

2) Build Depth: As soon as you sponsor someone, you want to help them sponsor two or three people. Once you do that, you want to start working with the most excited person and help them sponsor two or three people. Next, you pick the most excited person in their downline and help them. You keep repeating this process until you build the leg 10-20 people deep. By doing so, you should find 2-3 key leaders in each leg who are very serious about building a business. In my opinion, this is another key strategy to build your downline quickly.

3) Work with the Producers and Ignore the Whiners: When you sponsor someone, they might talk a big game. However, actions always speak louder than words. If you really want to succeed, you need to spend most of your time working with the people that are actually producing the results. Ignore the whiners and focus on the winners. After all, you can only lead a horse to water; you can’t make him drink.

4) Get Customers and Provide World Class Customer Service: Many companies don’t teach this anymore, but I think it’s really important to get lots of customers. If you do this, you will make money. And if you treat your customers well, many of your happy customers will want to upgrade and become a wholesale distributor or business builder. In addition, many of your happy customers will also give you referrals. This is another great tip to build your downline.

5) Follow Up: Most people you talk to won’t join your business the moment you approach them about it. However, people’s lives do change. If you keep a good database of everyone you talk to, you can follow up with them every 3-6 months. You never know what might change in their life. They might have lost their job, got a new boss that they hate, or just paid an enormous tax bill. If you don’t follow up, you are leaving lots of money on the table. No doesn’t always mean no forever. It just means “no” right now.

In conclusion, if you want to build your downline the right way, and build it quickly, you should follow the advice listed above. You should focus on recruiting leaders. You should build depth as quickly as possible. Next, you should work with the people who produce the best results.

Furthermore, you should always provide great customer service, in order to get referrals and possibly upgrade some of your customers into distributors. Finally, you must follow up with every prospect regularly, in case they change their mind about your business opportunity.

If you follow these steps, you will build your downline into a large organization.
