Customer Retention
The cancer of Network Marketing-ATTRITION
Approximately 50,000 people join a NWM company each week.
98% of those will never earn more than they spend on their product and marketing.
90% will never hear from their upline again.
Success in NWM comes not only from knowing how to recruit but also in effective retention!
Most marketers not only fail to prospect and recruit but they also fail to take action in retaining those downline members and or customers. Much of attrition or gradual wearing down of and organization is due to the sponsor not following up once a prospect joins or buys product.
FACT- it is harder to get a new customer or distributor than to keep one active.
How do we combat this?
With a retention plan!
When a marketer consistently implements a customer retention strategy, retention is nearly 10:1.
Successful Marketers go the extra mile...
Most people have the "What's in it for me" mantality -this creates a self centered approach to all they do. When you focus outward on helping others achieve what they want, you also achieve what you want.
