Follow-up
Follow-up in sales means the steps you take after presenting your initial pitch to your prospects or after you have made a sale. In other words, it's a way of reminding your customers of your brand by contacting them from time to time. The most common follow-up strategies in modern marketing are phone calls and emails.
Forced Matrix
Forced Matrix in MLM businesses is an organizational structure where the employees or distributors are arranged into a fixed number of rows and columns with a limited width. Thus, the primary members of the column remain at the top, and the new members hired by them are placed in their downline. Each sale made by the downline member adds up to the commission of the primary members of the matrix.
Genealogy
Genealogy, in MLM companies, is a tree of representatives or distributors that forms the backbone of any compensation plan made by the organization. It contains the current and historical records of all the members included and how they are connected to a company's income opportunity.

Once your prospects enter the hot circle, your goal should be to keep them coming back for more through different tactics like discounts and complementary products. Such prospects may even become your brand ambassadors and bring in more customers.
