The Follow-Up Timeline Most People Get Wrong (And How to Fix It)

Описание: Most people in network marketing struggle with follow-up—and it's not because they're doing it wrong technically. It's because they're confused about their PURPOSE and OBJECTIVE.

❌ WHAT MOST PEOPLE THINK:

Purpose: Sell the prospect on what the product can do for them

Objective: Get the person to buy, sell, or join

✅ THE REAL PURPOSE & OBJECTIVE:

Real Purpose: Authentically see if you can help someone solve a problem they actually have

Real Objective: Only help them if you genuinely see you can move them closer to their personal goal (not your goal)

WHY THIS MATTERS:

This shift does something powerful—it removes the pressure from the outcome and puts the focus where it belongs: on creating real value.

When you approach prospecting and follow-up this way: ✅ You stop feeling pushy or sales-y ✅ The process becomes genuinely enjoyable ✅ People sense your authenticity and trust you more ✅ You build better relationships (regardless of outcome) ✅ Your business becomes sustainable long-term

THE BOTTOM LINE:

If you've been dreading follow-ups or feeling like you're "selling" people, this mindset shift will transform your experience. You're not here to convince anyone. You're here to help the right people at the right time.

That's how you build a business you're proud of.
