They convince her that Benedick is in love with her, by having a conversation to that effect where she can overhear, while pretending that they don't know that she is overhearing it.

Because really, the love was not even true. They were just trying to get Beatrice and Benedick to love each other. By purposely letting Beatrice overhear Hero talking her maid or whoever it was, they wanted Beatrice to think that Benedick loved her so that Beatrice would love him. The men let Benedick overhear their conversation about how Beatrice loved Benedick (even though she really didn't at that time) so that Benedick would thinkthat Beatrice loved him so he would love her. Yes, complicated, I know. : )
