New Career Recruiters Report

It’s absolutely amazing how many people are looking for alternative businesses.  The term alternative businesses wasn’t nearly as popular 5 years ago as it is today.  Workers and business owners alike are looking for alternative ways to maintain and increase their income.

No longer are people relying on one income to get by.  There used to be a day when only one person in the household was the bread winner.  But when the cost of living began to increase, it took more than one income.  Husbands and wives began to both work outside the home.

Today with even husbands and wives working outside the home, alternative business options have become well sought after by hundreds of thousands of people.  Where to turn is the question.  There are so many opportunities on the internet and who knows which one to choose.

One of the wonderful alternative business options is online advertising.  Advertising has taken on a different way of attracting loyal customers.  It’s called referral advertising or referral marketing.  Advertisers have set budgets that will be spent.  What some have done is set aside a portion of their advertising budgets to pay for customers brought to them from referral sources.

The good thing about referral sources in the eyes of advertisers is that they don’t have to pay any money up front to the referrers.  They only pay the referrers when they deliver loyal customers.  Here’s what’s the neat thing about that.  The referrers are able to get nice bonuses because the dollars they are paid from the already existing budgets.

Now comes the way to get involved with an alternative business.  There is a company that sits right in the middle of this new way of gathering new customers.  You can participate for a very small annual fee.  You can earn upwards of thousands and hundreds of thousands of dollars per year.  There is a 9 year old company that has marketing relationships with many Fortune 500 companies and have a structure in place to pay average ordinary people to become the middleman on their own transactions and the transactions of others.

OK, every once in a while it is a good thing to be lucky.  But it is a much better thing to be good at social networking than rely on luck.  An approach that is consistent and genuinely beneficial for the parties involved is a much better way to network.

Networking does come fairly easy to some. But to most it is a learned skill.  I must say it a skill that takes continual learning.  It is not that the game is changing so much.  The key is we have to continue to learn to keep reminded and further sharpen our networking skills.

1. Learning helps us gain knowledge we do not have about social networking.

2. Learning helps us regain knowledge we have forgotten about social networking.

3. Learning helps us stay sharp in areas we need to be the best social networkers we can be.

4. Learning increases our confidence regarding social networking.

5. Learning keeps us humble regarding our social networking skills.

Get good at social networking.  Being lucky is just not reliable…lol 

By becoming a good social networker you can assure yourself that the relationships you build will be genuine.  The more genuine relationships we develop, the more opportunity we will have to get ourmessage out. 

Special Note:  When relationships are developed properly, the people in your network will become your best referral sources.

Stay in the game,

What are people saying about you. I mean what are the people in your industry, your, clients, your prospects, your family, I mean everybody. What people say about you is how you build your reputation.

We can have the best product or service in the world but if our reputation is tarnished, people will pass on buying our product or using our service. Believe me a bad reputation is easy to get but a good one is hard to keep.

What we do to keep our good reputation depends on:

1. How much we beleive in ourselves

2. How much we believe in our industry

3. How much we believe in our company

4. How much we believe in our co-workers

5. How much we believe in our clients

When our belief is high in the areas I mentioned, our accompanying actions will lead to providing the best service to our clients. One of the key things about people who know they have a good reputation is they don’t rely on themselves to bolster their reputation. They rely on others to do it for them.

But how do you get others to speak own your behalf?

Here’s how I do it.

*I give people an opportunity to say it through blogs (mine and others).

*I give people an opportunity to say it through email.

*I give people an opportunity to say it through voicemail.

*I offer people the opportunity to say it in my referral process.

I basically look for every possible way to give people a platform to say good things about me so others can see it or hear it.

Look back over your blog responses, email and voicemail and I can almost gurantee you that people have said good things about you. In fact you might just find something good I have said about you.

Keep your good reputation,

Why do brokers and small business owners recruit, recruit, recruit? 

Have you ever thought about why some brokers and small business owners recruit so much and others don’t?

There is something to recruiting that you need to know. Here’s the word, “leverage.”  Most brokers and small business owners recruit to expand their business without having to do all the work themselves.  I am sure you would agree that having more people working for you is smart provided you can train them to be the best they can be.  There is one challenge though.  Once some salespeople become good, they get this strange idea that it’s time for them to take advantage of leveraging their income.  The concept is awesome but there is a big difference between being a salesperson and being a broker or business owner.  I mean a big difference!  Not all salespeople should be brokers just like not all brokers should revert back to being salespeople.

The reality is that as long as brokers have salespeople they will have a need to recruit because salespeople come and go no matter what.  Some go on to different companies.  Some go on to start their own companies.  And some go on to do entirely different things. 

Recruiting is important for various reasons:

1.  To build your sales team

2.  To find sales managers

3.  To discover who you will spend time with

4.  To identify your potential competition

5.  To stay ahead of your competition

6.  To leverage your income

7.  To sort out the best candidates

8.  To increase your knowledge base

9.  To keep current salespeople on their toes

10. To build your data base

When we stop recruiting we fall into a false sense of reality.  Things are subject to change.  Recruiting keeps us in the flow so that when things do change we are able to flow with the change without having to play the “starting over game.”

OK, Ced but what about the economy?  Somebody is going to sell Real Estate.  Will it be you or someone else.  It’s a recruiters market.  The more we have on our team, the more we can offer what is available.

Recruit, recruit, recruit and you can do it in any order you choose to.

p.s. The great thing about my business is that those I recruit are recruiters also. When they choose to leverage their income it benefits me also.
