Once you have shown them what ACN has on offer, you determine if they are interested or not. Essentially you are <strong>sorting<\/strong> them into categories of \u201cinterested\u201d or \u201cnot interested\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Selling<\/strong> involves putting a lot of pressure on yourself to convince someone to sign up for an ACN service or the Business Opportunity.<\/p>\n<p>By sorting and not selling, you are attracting people who are truly interested in ACN and will stick around for the long term.<\/p>\n<h3><em>What Does a Sorting System Look Like?<\/em><\/h3>\n<div class=\"media\">\n<div class=\"media-body\">\n<h4 class=\"media-heading\">Step One \u2013 Greet<\/h4>\n<div class=\"media-body\">The first and easiest step is just talking to your prospects, encourage them to talk freely and openly with you.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"media\">\n<div class=\"media-body\">\n<h4 class=\"media-heading\">Step Two \u2013 Qualify<\/h4>\n<div class=\"media-body\">This is the step that determines if you have genuine prospects.

Never interrupt.<\/li>\n<li>Confirm your understanding\u00a0by asking the question back to them. Make sure you fully understand what they are asking.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Handle the question or objection<\/span>.
