Recently a prospective client had asked me to send him a quote and some examples of my web copy services. His client is in the document storage industry and needed some new copy for his website. Most of the time clients would acknowledge that they have received my quote or will inform me if they will be requiring my services. But I had not heard from my client for more than five days.

Because I did not receive a reply from him and it had been five days, I got concerned. So instead of sitting around wondering if I bungled the job, I decided to find a way to motivate him to give me an update on his progress with his client. At the same time, I want to get his feedback if I had fallen out of the loop of consideration for the job.

In the past I would have just come to the conclusion that the prospective client was not interested in my services and I would have just forgotten about this project and have moved on to the next project that came my way. But one of the most important things that I have learnt when I was in sales some years ago, is that when you are faced with an objection or do not receive a response, ask ‘WHY?’.


 
The success of targeting prospect start from targeting some one with a specific kind of need or frustration while having  the full power to fulfill his need and satisfy him ,

So before you target prospect ,ask you self a question ,
What kind of skills, capabilities do I have?
Do not target customers they need some one better than you stronger than you as you will sell them hardly and the relationship will turn from selling as a mutual benefit relationship.
Do not target customers you can not make profits from they are more suitable to some business types smaller than you.

 
A biggest reason why most network marketers stop their work in 1st to 3rd month because they are lacking something, and that's we called MLM Mindset.

We all know that MLM is a business that is easy start with. Since it's not costly and has a big potential to earn, most people tend to like and join MLM on the first they were introduced to the business. But the problem that most of them run into is they enter this business ill-equipped. Entering any kind of business without proper mindset would lead you to failure instead of success. MLM mindset is very essential to network marketer to cope up with things like frustration, struggles and mental stress that turn most of the network marketers to quitters.
