I have known Russ McNeil personally for over 20 years. I have watched him transition and grow as a man, author, and teacher. When I read Prospecting Power [aka Prospecting Rules], it took me back to my early days before the ministry when I was in the insurance industry. I found myself laughing and nodding my head at some of the heartache I went through when learning how to prospect. This book would have saved me a lot of hard-learned lessons. Prospecting Power will infuse you with confiden (…)

So many people were never taught how to look someone in the eyes and make a connection. It comes naturally to some, but many of us didn’t inherit that natural talent.

These are skills that we all can continue to improve upon.
Connecting with people is one of the most important things we need to do to put large organizations together. Throughout this book, Russ takes us step-by-step in doing just that through our thoughts, words, and actions. Take this information and personalize it with your efforts to grow your business.

As an IBO, being able to meet new people is an important skill to have. This skill doesn’t come naturally to everyone, but it is a skill that anyone can learn.

When I read Prospecting Power, [aka Prospecting Rules] it reminded me of so many of the challenges that new IBOs face.
