Cast A Wider Net Can you advertise for leads who might become distributors? Yes, if you choose your media well. Start with small ads in inexpensive publications. Your parent company probably has some recruiting ads with proven pulling power. If not, write your own copy. Emphasize that you represent a national company offering full- or part-time work with excellent income potential. Leave a phone number to call. Your area probably has weekly "pennysaver" newspapers with low ad rates, and perhaps a local weekly newspaper. Test your ads there before moving on to more expensive daily newspapers. If your ad draws responses, answer them right away. Set up an appointment -- remember, these people answered your ad, so they have some interest in earning extra income. If you can't get to the responses right away, pass them to an appropriate member of your downline.
