No, I’m not telling you about my experience with Julie Evans from Kindergarten so don’t even ask! 🙂
But seriously…
Have you ever had someone say “I’ll take a look at your network marketing company if you’ll take a look at mine?”
It’s a question I got the other day from one of my customers asking if he should partake in this type of back-n-forth pitch process.
Here’s my take on it.
Don’t be a Kindergartener!
If someone wants you to join under them…
But is also open to switching companies…
How would you feel about them as your leader?
Does their flakiness inspire confidence?
I don’t think so.
What words come to mind, instead?
- Weak.
- Pathetic.
- Wishy washy.
Just understand, if you partake in the whole “I’ll show you mind if you’ll show me yours B.S.” you are being a poser.
Instead, be a professional.
Kindly let them know you’re not recruitable. Show strength, show confidence, show leadership.
And just in case you’re thinking…
I know I’m not really recruitable so I’ll just pretend to be interested in their deal and maybe I’ll recruit the other person…
2 Things:
First, if you’re pretending to be open, but you’re not, you’re out of integrity. A lack of integrity is not going to lead to you becoming a powerful leader.
Next, even if you do recruit the other person, all you’ll get is a poser who is open to being led by a weak leader willing to go through the “I’ll show you mine if you’ll show me yours” game.
Be strong. Don’t be a poser. Elevate yourself to a higher level.
