On Sunday, I attended the annual Massive Action Day (MAD) hosted by the Utility Warehouse in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire. One of the speakers was John Passmore who suggested a way of cheaply gathering customers via the WAM forms. He suggested we should read his blog (
http://www.networkmarketingblog.org.uk/) to see how he fared at this method. His method seemed far more effective than my present attempts of delivering leaflets, so I thought I would give it a try. Like John, I will post my results of my progress. This is for two reasons. First, will be a valuable record for myself, showing the amount of work put in to achieve any results. And secondly, I hope it will encourage anyone else who reads, this to do better than me :-)
First, I will give the statistics of my leaflet campaign. I started this back in October 2011, and so far I hae delivered 25,000 leaflets personally, investing over 230 hours of my time. So far I have netted only 11 customers and one team member. I am pretty sure I will be more successful with this new venture. I still have another 5000 leaflets to get rid of, so I still have a lot more walking to do in the next few days!
Now back to my venture today. I took my team member Maggie with me to Stony Stratford, and we both stood in the High Street asking anyone who walked past by if they wanted to enter a free prize draw. We were there for only 50 minutes. I don't know how many people Maggie actually asked who said no, but she got three people to enter the prize draw. One of those three she managed to get a call back tomorrow morning. My efforts were as follows-
