Today, I’d want to discuss with you ways to reengage dormant MLM Distributors and consumers who are a part of your team.
If you approach the situation with the appropriate frame of mind, inactive and former distributors and consumers might be a veritable gold mine for your business. Let me start by telling you that this is something that is understood by the majority of organizations. Because of this, they maintain an excellent level of communication with both their current and previous clients.
What Kind of Surprises Are in Store for Your Company?
Only roughly twenty to thirty percent of your team will be active during any given month, based on what I have seen firsthand over the previous eighteen years as a member of your team. This indicates that just twenty or thirty of the one hundred persons who make up your team will place an order each month. The rest of the people don’t place orders for some reason. This indicates that there are a significant number of INACTIVE members of your team whom you have the opportunity to follow up with and maybe win back.
In addition, regardless of what you accomplish, each year between seventy and eighty percent of the members of your team will quit. These inactive distributors and customers, as well as previous customers, have the potential to become a rich source of new orders and commissions in the future. Why? because they have previously made a purchase from your company in the past and will almost certainly do so again if you maintain communication with them, offer excellent customer service, and ask them to make other purchases.
How to Reengage Dormant Multi-Level Marketing Distributors and Customers
My step-by-step plan to reactivate dormant MLM Distributors and consumers is outlined in the next paragraphs, so keep reading.
# 1: Keep a Database
Your database is your most valuable company asset. Be sure to retain a contact manager with every person who joins your team, and pay specific attention to the individuals you directly registered. Keep a record of their name, email address, phone number, and mailing address at the very least.
#2: Check in with every single person once a month, at the very least.
You should make it a priority to follow up with people at least 10–15 percent of the time that you are open for business. Make it a goal to touch base with each inactive member of your team at least once each month, if at all possible. You could talk to them via Facebook Messenger, text message, email, or phone call; you could also use any other way you like.
When you chat to them, the conversation does not necessarily have to revolve about the products or the business. You also have the option of making a care call.
In addition to that, make sure they know how much you value their company. You can also inform them of any company news, new product releases, or other information that may be of interest to them.
You might even give them a gift card or some other form of unique incentive if they place a subsequent order with you. Simply exercise your imagination and think outside the box. And under NO circumstances should you resort to pressure, hype, or hard selling.
#3: Maintain Constant Contact Forever
This is the place where all the magic takes place. You should try to keep in touch with them until they either buy something from you, pass away, or specifically ask you not to contact them in the future. Doing so is an example of smart marketing. You never engage in pushy sales tactics such as pressure or hype, but you do stay in touch with your customers.
It’s possible for people’s circumstances to improve. It is going to evolve. It’s impossible to know what the other person is going through in their own life. It’s possible that they’re having problems with their health, their marriage, or their finances. Or, it’s possible that they don’t believe they are valued. Just remember to be kind and encouraging, and to keep in regular contact.
Methods That Are Most Effective
Utilizing an autoresponder is by far the most effective method for following up with dormant consumers and distributors. You are able to include anybody and everyone on your email list and distribute an email newsletter on a weekly or monthly basis. You might also use the postal service to distribute a mailed newsletter instead, which is another option. Both approaches are very effective. In addition, regular phone calls and texts are not only quite useful but also vitally important.
The fact that you maintain a database of your customers is of the utmost importance. Aweber is the autoresponder service that I use, and Stat Trak Pro is the program that I use to keep track of all of my mailing addresses and phone numbers. You may use a straightforward Excel spreadsheet to keep track of the times when you speak with each member of your team if it is still a relatively small group. Simply put, you should devise a method that serves your needs and then adhere to it.
Other Matters to Take Into Account
The majority of the members on your team will become inactive once a certain amount of time has passed. On the other hand, if you maintain communication with them and take the advise I offered in this post, many of them will return and place more orders. It’s possible that some of them will even settle down and start their own company. Even if you are just able to cut employee turnover by 10 or 20 percent annually, this can have a SIGNIFICANTly beneficial effect on the amount of your monthly bonus check.
