How Much Do You Make?
When you are trying to talk to people for your business do ever get asked the question
HOW MUCH DO YOU MAKE?
Don't you just hate the question? I do, I hate it with a passion.
Do you know how to answer this question?
Look, it doesn't matter and in my opinion, it is non of their business. I will turn it back on them and ask , "how much do you want to make?" never answer their question. First, they are probably not going to believe you and second they are not going to join if you answer with, "I'm not making anything because I just joined". It's a catch 22 so don't waist your time. I will also tell someone that it doesn't matter how much I make because everyone is different. I could be making $100 a month or $30,000 a month but either way it is based on my performance. Someone who is doing the business part time might make $500 a week and another person working the business full time could be making $3000 a week.
To me if i am asked this question I automatically assume they are not interested unless they show me other wise. Give them a date and time for a meeting and get off the phone with them. Keep it simple!
