The Law of Attraction Prospects Edition!
STEP 1
The Law of Attraction is simple, you receive what you give. The energy, time and optimism you put into your prospects will show up in the success of your business. People want more than a product to buy, and they want more than a mass text. People want to invest in people. It’s as simple as that.
Product doesn’t always equal a drive to purchase. Even healthy people are looking for value. So, what is your greatest value? Culture and Time.
Culture = Creating a community of real connections and friendships. Finding one thing in common with your audience can spark a life-long relationship.
Time = That extra step you take to reach out to someone personally, scheduling that one-on-one virtual meet-up, taking part in a training like this to make your personal brand better.
How to get started attracting prospects?
Step 1. Be yourself!
Authenticity is key today. People want to be a part of something real.
Step 2. Don’t be afraid to share!
You’re you, and that is unique. Sure, there’s always competition but there’s no one quite like you that offers who you already are. People want to hear your story.
Step 3. Believe!
You have incredible, proven products. You have a community of people to help you, too. All you must do is put yourself out there and believe. Whatever dream or goal is in our inner thoughts, can ultimately be materialized into reality. You just have to have faith and take the first step!
Here’s some things to remember:
-
Most people are looking to simplify their life. Think about how you can help them achieve this through better health or business.
-
Being honest and consistent in your personal brand sends a clear and powerful message to your prospects. Form an online presence that speaks to who you truly are.
-
Set goals and mark benchmarks off as you accomplish them along the way. This will keep you on task and driven.
-
Follow-up with those who engage in your content. Get their information and share a video from Z-Mobile with them.
-
Promote and reshare your teammates content.
-
Post frequently!

Platform Picker Tool
STEP 2
Post your content where your audience will see it. Stick to what you know at first, then branch out. We suggest one, or all, of these for your business. Read to see the benefits of each and take your pick!
Facebook – Connect with friends, family and people from all over the world through one of the most popular social media platforms. Available through desktop or app, instantly share thoughts, photos and videos, send messages and get updates about prospects, customers and Consultants you like and follow. This platform is great for forming an open dialogue with your community through public or private group pages, commenting sections, shares, reposts and more.
Twitter – From breaking news and entertainment to sports and movements, you can start your own story or get the full scoop of what’s happening in the world – in real-time with live commentary. Tweets, threads, retweets and subtweets give you the outlet to spark a local or global conversation. Available through desktop or app, short videos, links and limited photos can be shared here too!
Instagram – A simple, fun and creative way to tell your story by capturing, editing and sharing photos, videos and messages that inspire action. Instagram aka “IG” has taken over the personal marketing niche with over 1 billion+ active accounts worldwide. Available through desktop or app, tap into people’s passions to create deeper relationships with your business online (and offline) while connecting with friends and family.
Pinterest – Discover recipes, lifestyles, fitness inspiration and more – all driven by visuals. Pin your products, follow your interests and repin ideas through images and videos to grow your audience and business. Features like reactions and comments give Pinners and prospects a way to connect with you. Available through desktop or app, target your audience and showcase your personal brand front and center.
When should you post? It’s all about frequency.
Informative versus spammy. It’s important to consider each platform and the most optimal time to post and how often you should. You want to take advantage of all opportunities, but you also don’t want to be unfollowed or blocked. Going overkill with mass texts, emails, messaging, mentions, tags, and even hashtags can make you appear unauthentic and disconnected.
According to some of the most popular data-driven network companies, here’s how often a successful business should be posting according to specific social networks:
Personal Campaign Creator
STEP 3
Now that you’ve chosen the right platform for your audience, you must create content outside of your everyday life that helps push your personal brand further.
One way to do this is by sitting down once a month to create a social calendar. This allows you to create custom campaigns that are personalized by you! Plus, this makes sure that you’re on your prospect’s feeds daily. You never know which content will speak to them, so relatability and relevancy matter.
Here’s some things to remember:
-
Do stay current with pop culture.
-
Avoid only talking about product or money.
-
Channel your inner Erin King. (Remember her awesome speech during Rise Up! Virtual?)
*Bonus* Use a free scheduling software app to schedule out your posts, that way you don’t have to take out the time to go to each social media platform to post. You insert the content; they upload the post!
Insider Notes: Don’t be so obvious all the time. Product heavy social media will lead your followers to understand you're only after one thing – selling to them. Take it easy on them and be yourself. Take selfies with product in the background, or not at all. Mix it up!
Compliance Tips!
The FTC is carefully watching testimonials looking for blatant or understated suggestions that becoming a Consultant means you will live the lifestyle of the rich and famous. Be VERY careful to avoid having Zurvita Consultants in videos or photos sitting by their pools, standing by their sports cars, photographed on yachts, and reporting from exotic locations. Remember, the key is to make representations that are typical for the average Zurvita Consultant.
