Warm vs Cold contacts prospecting this is the real skill of network marketing. Let’s break it down step by step:

Great questions — this is the real skill of network marketing. Let’s break it down step by step:

1. Cold Calling

Yes, you can cold call, but it’s usually the hardest path in network marketing. Why?

People don’t know you or trust you yet → high rejection rate.
It takes a lot of energy and consistency to get results.
It can still work if you’re very skilled, but most duplication systems avoid it because new team members won’t do it.

👉 If you want duplication, cold calling should be a last resort, not your main method.

2. Calling Your Warm List

This is more powerful, but the approach matters.

If you haven’t spoken in years, and the first thing you do is pitch → they’ll feel used.
If you have an active relationship, you can invite directly.

That’s why warming up is key.

3. Warming People Up

The best approach is a short, genuine reconnection before inviting. Examples:

Quick voice note: “Hey [Name], long time! How’s life treating you? I thought of you today and wanted to check in.”
Short chat, ask about them, reconnect.

Then, a few days later (or same conversation if it flows), you can bridge to your invite:

“By the way, I’m working on something exciting right now. You might or might not be interested, but would you be open to taking a look?”

This way, it doesn’t feel forced.

4. What’s Best for Duplication

✅ Teach your team to:

Make a list of warm contacts.
Send greeting/reconnection messages first.
Transition naturally into an invite.
Keep it short, curious, and pressure-free.

📌 Bottom line:

Cold calls = possible, but low duplication.
Warm calls = best, but warm up first if you haven’t spoken in a while.
Always focus on relationship first, opportunity second.

two ready-to-use scripts:
👉 one for “reconnection/warm-up” calls, and
👉 one for “direct invite” calls?

🔹 1. Warm-Up / Reconnection Script

(For people you haven’t spoken to in a while)

Message / Call Opener:
“Hey [Name], it’s been a while! I thought of you today and wanted to check in. How’s life going? How’s [family/job/kids/etc.]?”

👉 Have a short, genuine chat. Listen to them. Show you care.

Bridge to the future invite (don’t pitch yet):
“That’s awesome. I’ll keep you in mind — actually, I’ll share something I’m working on with you in the next few days. It’s really exciting, but let’s catch up properly first.”

(This sets the stage without being pushy. Later you can send the invite script.)

🔹 2. Direct Invite Script

(For people you’re already in touch with or have warmed up)

Call / Voice Note:
“Hey [Name], quick question — I’m working on something exciting right now. I don’t know if it’s for you or not, but would you be open to taking a look?”

👉 If they say yes:
“Great, I’ll send you a short video that explains everything better than I could. Then we can chat after and see what you think.”

👉 If they say no:
“No problem at all, I just thought of you. Thanks for being honest.”

✅ These scripts are duplicatable → simple, short, anyone on your team can copy.
✅ You’re not pitching; you’re just inviting. The tool (video, presentation, etc.) does the explaining.

Would you like me to also give you a text/WhatsApp version of these scripts (short, copy-paste style) so you can use them instantly in messages instead of calls?

Warm Market Categories

People You Know Personally
- Friends, family, past colleagues, acquaintances, neighbours.
- People who already trust you or know you.
People Who Have Shown Curiosity
- People who reacted to, commented on, or messaged you about your curiosity videos.
- People who viewed your content and engaged in some way.
- People who have liked or commented but you haven’t spoken to directly yet.

These people are considered “warm” because they’ve shown some interest already — they’re not total strangers.

Leads from Events / Groups
- People who joined your group or event because of curiosity videos, posts, or ads.
- They opted in in some way, so they’re already warmer than a cold call.

💡 Key point:
The warmer the contact, the higher your success rate — which means less rejection and better duplication.

If someone has already shown curiosity, you treat them differently than cold contacts. They usually need a direct invite, not a long warm-up, because they already have some interest. But a short friendly reconnection is still good before inviting, especially if it’s been a while since they engaged.

If you want, I can now make a quick decision flow chart showing exactly how to handle:

Cold calls
Warm market
Curiosity video responders
so you know whether to warm them up or invite directly.

That will make your process crystal clear.

Referring to the duplicateable scripts Would you like me to also give you a text/WhatsApp version of these scripts (short, copy-paste style) so you can use them instantly in messages instead of calls?

Yes 😄 — here’s your copy-paste style version of the warm-up and invite scripts so you can use them instantly in WhatsApp or text.

🔹 1. Warm-Up / Reconnection Message

(For people you haven’t spoken to in a while)

Option 1 — Short & friendly:

Hey [Name] 😊 Long time! How have you been? Just thought of you today and wanted to check in.

Option 2 — Slightly more personal:

Hi [Name] 🙌 It’s been a while! How’s everything with you and [something personal you know about them]?

Follow-up message if they reply:

That’s great to hear 👍 By the way, I’ve been working on something exciting lately. I’ll share more soon — just wanted to reconnect first.

🔹 2. Direct Invite Message

(For people you’re already in touch with or who showed curiosity)

Option 1 — Simple & curious:

Hey [Name] 👋 I’m working on something exciting right now. Not sure if it’s for you, but would you be open to taking a look?

Option 2 — Slightly more engaging:

Hey [Name] 😊 Quick question — I’ve been working on something that’s been getting amazing results for people. I’m not sure if it’s for you, but would you be open to checking it out?

If they say yes:

Awesome! I’ll send you a short video so you can see what it’s about, then we can chat after.

If they say no:

No worries at all 🙏 Thanks for being honest.

📌 Pro tip: Keep the messages short, curious, and pressure-free so they’re duplicatable for your team and work well for both WhatsApp and SMS.

If you want, I can now give you a full “Prospecting to Invite” roadmap that includes exactly when to use these warm-up and invite scripts for maximum results so your duplication system is airtight.

Perfect 😄 — here’s your “Prospecting → Invite” Roadmap so you and your team have a clear, duplicatable process.

This makes it easy to know exactly when to use warm-up scripts and invite scripts so nothing is random.

📌 Prospecting to Invite Roadmap

Step 1 — Prospecting Methods

These generate curiosity and warm contacts:

Curiosity videos (on social media or WhatsApp)
Facebook/WhatsApp posts
Group events
Personal messages to warm contacts
Referrals

Goal: Build a list of interested people (“warm market”) and cold contacts to work with.

Step 2 — Categorise Your Contacts

When a person comes onto your radar, decide if they are:

Cold contact = someone who doesn’t know you or hasn’t engaged yet
Warm contact = someone you know personally OR who has engaged with your content
Curiosity responder = someone who has reacted, commented, or messaged you about your videos/posts

Step 3 — Decide Approach

Contact Type	Approach
Cold contact	Warm-up first (reconnection call/message)
Warm contact	Warm-up or invite directly depending on how long since last contact
Curiosity responder	Direct invite (short message)

Step 4 — Execution

Cold Contact or Long-Time No Contact

Use Warm-Up Script (Call or WhatsApp) → reconnect and build rapport.
Wait a day or two → then use Direct Invite Script.

Warm Contact (recent contact)

You can use the Direct Invite Script immediately, unless it’s been months since talking → then use warm-up first.

Curiosity Responder

Use Direct Invite Script right away → they are already warmed up by their engagement.

Step 5 — Follow-Up After Invite

Send the curiosity video or presentation you promised.
After they view, call or message:

“Hey [Name], what did you think? Any questions?”

If they’re interested → book a meeting/presentation.
If not → keep them on your “warm list” and re-engage later.

Step 6 — Record & Track

Use a simple CRM (like HubSpot or Simple Prospect) to track:

Name & contact
Type of contact (cold, warm, curiosity)
Date of last contact
Stage (warm-up, invited, viewing, follow-up)
Notes

This helps you know exactly who to call and when, and makes duplication simple for your team.

Clear visual flowchart of this roadmap so it becomes a duplicatable training tool for your team.
That way, every member instantly knows how to prospect, warm, and invite.
