“How do I find out where I can get scripts on what to say to my lists I want to talk to them live but don't know what to say to them or how to start up a conversation with them.”
Answer
There are couple answers here and that's a good thing.
- Depending on your niche you might be able to do a simple 3 email autoresponder to connect with your list
- Example -> someone looking at your business opportunity and want more information
- Sending a simple broadcast to see what you can HELP THEM with.. not HELP YOU WITH…. huge difference. See how you can help others before helping yourself.
- Be a friend, not a salesperson – Sure… you want to make money and build a business but when starting out building a relationship should take center stage. Be a person someone would want to do business with. Easiest way to think of this is treat your list like a friend.
*Advanced Tip
Start thinking in … “how can I pair up the correct OFFER to the prospect”
Offers can be
- ebooks
- how to
- advice
- checklist
- tools
- service
- product that solves a particular problem.
Start solving a “specific” person's problem… and watch how the conversions for leads and sales will increase due to that new focus.
If your Aweber lead conversions and engagement is lacking..
Here is a pretty cool tool I'm personally using to help engage and provide the correct solution to the lead on my list

Lawrence,
Been following you for awhile now and like this post. Being yourself and putting yourself in others shoes is important. Putting the money aside and just being a person willing to help is the best way to go.
Be a friend to people. Help them. I couldn’t agree more.

sometimes we forget to trade places.. just like being a consumer and a vendor… be both

Reminds me to a saying “We can have anything we wanted by helping others to get what they want”. To me its very powerful as a Network Marketer. Thank you for sharing Lawrence.

BE the person who helps vs take away. Solve people’s problems 😉

I especially like tip 2 and 3… The law of reciprocity comes into play. Give and you will receive. If we are automatically centered on helping others good things will come our way, it’s a universal law. And there is nothing more humbling, and gratifying than knowing and hearing that some one else’s life is better because of something you said or did. Priceless!
And once again, I cannot thank you enough LT for all that you share to help all of us out here. I feel that you are a perfect example because you freely give value content to everyone in your path. I am humbled to learn from you.

Thank you so much. I work hard and make sure the user experience is something I can be proud of…
I basically market to myself… and make things available because people do need a little help to get them moving in the right direction

Yes, always have in mind how you can help them first and what they will see from you. I’m still applying tons of training from Ryan Deiss as well. Thanks for sharing.
