10 Ways for Preparing to Be Effective When Doing One on One Recruiting
Main aim (ahead of giving the now interested person a card or flyer that contains your referral link): To be confident that you'll be able to easily answer any question that you are asked.
1. Plan what your first words or sentences will be, write them down, learn them, and then say them out loud to yourself, to the mirror, or to a pet.
2. Practice makes perfect - practice with family members and friends, not to recruit them, but simply to practice, as if you were still at school and saying a school oral for your parents the night before you have to say it at school.
3. Have your family members and friends ask you questions, anything that they can think of. Write down those questions.
4. Formulate your answers to those questions, or go do the research to come up with the answers, write the answers down, and then practice giving those answers out loud, on your own.
5. Add more questions to your list. Compile these extra questions after having read several pages on SFI to find suitable ones - read some questions in the Getting Started section of the SFI Forum, in the various categories beneath the SFI heading on the lower left of the SFI Support page, or read the answers to the questions that come up when you start typing in just a few letters or words in the search bar at top right of the site.
6. Practice giving answers to these new questions too, on your own.
7. When you feel you have practiced enough, practice even more. Give the list of questions to family members or friends and have them ask you the questions. Answer the questions.
8. Dress attractively to help boost your self-confidence, or wear an SFI T-Shirt, or clothes, jewelry and accessories that you bought from ECAs at TripleClicks.
9. Pack SFI business cards and flyers.
10. As you go out, heading for your first potential recruit of the day, remind yourself that you have practiced what you're going to say. You know what you're going to say. You are confident. You are a super star. Now go get 'em!
