How to Launch your MLM Business in a New City
What do you do if you’re brand new in a city, how do you launch your MLM business?
Number one, I’d reach out to all the people that are either in my team, or just people that I know in wherever I’ve moved from, and ask them, “Hey, I’m new to wherever, do you know anyone in this city? See if you can get some introductions. That’s a resource that very few people think about, but it’s an awesome resource because if you can get introduced into a group, that’s pretty awesome. I’d reach out to all your friends, family members, etc. that you like and you enjoy, and just ask them, say, “Hey, I just moved to Milwaukee, do you know anyone in Milwaukee? I’d love to meet them, I’m new, I don’t know anybody.” That would be one suggestion.
Second suggestion is go to meetup.com and look in that area to see what meetings are going in that area and see if there’s any topics that you like. Whatever you like, maybe there’s a network marketing meetup, maybe there’s a law of attraction, sales, or realtors, or whatever interests you. Look for things that interest you, maybe it’s just a networking get to know people or a Chamber of Commerce event, etc. you may want to go there, and when you go there, I would not pitch anything. I would try to say as little as possible, and put on my listening ears, like Judge Judy says, put on your listening ears, and I would grab as many business cards as possible and follow up with them the next day. From there, you might start posting on social media, “Hey, just moved to blank, what’s there that’s cool to do around here?” Just to alert people that you’re in a new area, and see what you get. You may not get much, depending on your social media presence before you moved, but you may get some people reaching out to you.
Lastly, I would say understand that all of the cold market prospecting strategies still apply to you. You can still go to a restaurant and prospect a waiter or waitress. You can still go to a networking function and get business cards and follow up with them. You can still do all of those things. You can go on Facebook and look at the local Chamber of Commerce, see who’s members of that and reach out to them saying, “Hey, I’m new to this area, I saw that you’re part of the Chamber of Commerce, is that a group that you suggest, do you like it, how long have been a part of it? Sorry for all the questions, but I’m new here.” Most people, so long as you don’t send a link, don’t send a link, don’t say, “I’m new here and I’ve got this great business opportunity, it’s amazing, it’s ground floor billion dollars.” Don’t do that, calm her down, ease off the Red Bull, and just be a human being. Just imagine, being a human being. Wouldn’t that be cool? Ask them some questions, don’t send a link, don’t give them a pitch, and see where it takes you.
