Recently, I saw a comment from a "flat earther" on Facebook that went something like this...
"99% of the people who laugh at flat earthers never even put an ounce of thought into why they believe the earth is round... they blindly accept it at face value simply because that's what they've been told."
And you know what?
That's a fair point!
And while I'm quite versed in the science 'round the shape of our planet,
I will say that my approach to this industry was anything but scientific when I first got started.
I had blind faith when my upline told me...
"Everyone is your prospect."
Even when logically that should have raised a few red flags.
And I completely left critical thinking behind when I repeatably made what's probably the biggest prospecting mistake you can make...
I'm talking about striking up conversations with an ulterior motive and operating with a (poorly) hidden agenda.
Ugh!
And while I pretended to be casual about it, like I wasn't desperate for them to join, I was not-so-secretly hoping they'd say "yes."
Well, here's why this is doesn't work...
There are two reasons, actually.
Starting with...
If you're needy or desperate, your prospects "spidey senses" will pick up on it a mile away.
And it doesn't feel good.
Even if you try to play it cool and nonchalant, your true intentions will come through in your body language and tonality. It's difficult to hide.
And here's what's really important about this...
High-caliber people (the ones you really want to attract) do NOT want to deal with people who are desperate.
It's a big turn off.
Kinda like a girl who doesn't want to go out with a guy who's too thirsty for a date.
With me?
Good.
Now, here's the next problem with the targeting everyone approach...
And look, I know this one sounds a bit weird at first, but trust me on this...
You want to be turning away WAY more people than you attract.
Think about it...
Most people aren't cut out to be entrepreneurs, so you want to be repelling anyone who's just going to waste your time.
And instead, you want to be in the position of cherry-picking from only the most qualified prospects you actually want to work with.
