What to do when a new recruit is floundering

You are bound to recruit someone who for whatever reason just isn't reaching their potential for themselves or for the company. Yet how to set these recruits on the path to success can be hard for their sponsors.

When a new recruit doesn't seem to be doing well with their new business, either because they have a lot of questions and not enough answers, or they are suffering from a case of "buyer's remorse", these recruits need a bit more TLC than most. And yes, some of these recruits can turn into your best recruits, with just a little bit of extra time.

Design a sheet with all the "everything you wanted to know about Company but were afraid to ask" with answers to questions, even dumb ones they might be too afraid to ask. This worksheet will be handy to help future floundering recruits as well, so spend some time doing a worthwhile job on it, and also ask your own upline any questions you might not think of.

Ask someone from home office to give them a phone call. Sometimes all they need is to talk with someone who has all the answers they need, or get a pep talk from one of the cheery voices at the home office who are trained in dealing with just this kind of situation.

Offer to go with them to their first couple of parties to give a helping hand. Don't do the party for them, but be there for moral support and answering questions they might have as you run the party.

When you follow these steps, you can help these floundering recruits go on the path to success.
