Keep Track of Contract Expirations
One way to sell cell phone plans via MyWirelessRep is to simply talk to your friends and contacts. Nearly everyone has a cell phone right? And that means everyone is on a cell phone plan. Strike up a conversation about their cell phone. Let’s take hypothetical Joe. “Hey Joe..how do you like your ___ phone?”. Then somewhere in the conversation ask how long of a contract Joe had to sign or talk about your own contact and that might prompt him to talk about his. Then make a note of it. Mental note short term, but for the long time, write it down in a contact list of some kind. Then when the time comes, you can say “hey Joe… your cell phone contract is about to expire; have you thought about what you’re going to do to replace it?”
That does 2 things. First it shows Joe that you cared enough to remember his cell phone contract expiration. He’ll be impressed with that. That can also provide a great lead in for you to present the MyWirelessRep story to Joe whether or not Joe might be interested in starting a business. By this time you should know if Joe is entrepreneur material or not. If so, discuss the opportunity, if not simply discuss the benefits of the plan. If you aren’t sure, discuss the plan and drop a few tidbits about the opportunity to Joe and see if he shows any interest.
This type of follow-up is more likely to be a win win because you’ve alreadly established a trust relationship with Joe.
