You don’t have to fret! With these easy network marketing tips, you can revitalize your sales pitch and methods in no time at all!
1. Contacts
Remember that your contacts are your most valuable asset. Who are your contacts? The people you see on the streets? Your next door neighbor?
When considering whom to invite, try those closest to you first. This is because they are most likely to be more open to your suggestions and will be willing to do you a few favors (such as buying that detergent you are hawking). The great thing about this is that they will really mind plunking a few bucks to help jumpstart your business. And when they see that you are doing well, they could very well join you as well.
When you run through the whole list of you clan, what will that leave you with? You will of course have to go to those people that next in line with regards to closeness or affinity to you. And what if that gives out too?
You can always adopt a friendlier stance and chat up that neighbor you never talked to. You could meet new people on the bus and on the train. But remember, you have to like them as people first. Don’t go about and look at them like walking piggy banks. People will know if they are being looked upon as ‘things.’ Always regard them highly and get to know them. Build their trust. The truth is, the friendships you build will be the true reward, and the sales will be just a side dish.
Always ask for referrals from your contacts. This is another sure way to increase your prospects.
2. Believe
If you yourself do not believe in your product, chances are you won’t be able to sell it to others. Remember, nothing promotes a product better that a satisfied customer. Let others see you using the product. Say glowing things about it. And most of all, let all that you say be true. If your customer finds out you weren’t being honest, you could ruin your business relationship.
When you choose a network business, take into consideration their product. See if you can believe in it and pitch for it effectively.
3. Recruit the right people
Don’t just recruit anybody. Make sure the people you recruit share an unbridled passion, and tireless work ethic with like you. If you don’t chances are, they will drop out of the networking business and you will not be able to build your downline.
4. Don’t force the issue
When trying to close a sale, don’t force the issue. If you do, people will get suspicious as to why you are doing so. Are selling them counterfeit items? Are you only interested in your profit and not in your customer’s satisfaction? Always keep this in mind: the customer always comes first. Please them, and the profits and windfall from these relationships will follow.
5. Look the part
When recruiting others, you can’t say, “You will get rich with network marketing,” and look shabby all the while. They’d say, “I thought you got rich from this thing, why do you look like you didn’t.” People will want to see a visible sign of success. You are their only reference point. If you are not convincing as a successful networking agent,
6. Hang in there
Perseverance is a virtue. If money grew on trees, you’d still have to wait for them to grow. Remember the old adage: try and try, until you succeed. Remember that your goal is not to just to get money, but to build upon a good income generating business.
7. Evolve
Don’t be satisfied thinking that your techniques at recruiting will forever be effective. Although there are basic principles that should be followed, you can forever improve on your techniques. Today’s society is constantly evolving. If you want to catch up with them, you have to evolve in your marketing strategies as well.

Following the success of Donald Trump’s The Apprentice, a sixteen week job interview reality show where Trump hires someone to manage one of his companies, I came to think that business reality shows can be truly successful. What if we were to create the ultimate business reality show? What would that look like? What I would like to see is the greatest business minds of our time come together on television to create a brand new Uber Company (”Uber” is derived from the German language and has come to be a synonym for “super”), a company that, with the guidance of some great business executives, an executive dream team, becomes a “super” company - a company that is super profitable with a rate of growth unseen in our generation.
If we put the greatest business minds of our time together to build a brand new company, would it be one of the most successful companies ever? Or, would there be such a clash of egos that it would be doomed to failure. This is imaginary, so I guess we would never know. But imagination is a good thing. So, I decided to be the cast director and have put together my own executive dream team. Here it is:
Bill Gates - President & CEO: Should the most successful person in the world be the leader? How do you decide who is the most successful person in the world? If we go by net worth, then it is Bill Gates, co-founder of Microsoft. Maybe he doesn’t have the greatest leadership skills, but he is the most successful. He is my choice to lead the executive dream team.
Edward Lampert - Vice President: I wanted someone young to be second in command. At age 43, Lampert is a self-made billionaire and Chairman of ESL Investments.
Donny Deutsch - Director of Advertising: With his Madison Avenue ad agency he is one of the most successful advertising experts ever. And, with his own CNBC talk show, The Big Idea, who better than to fill this role. After all, the executive dream team will definitely need a big idea to make Uber Company a success.
Jay Conrad Levinson - Director of Marketing: The father of Guerrilla Marketing, Jay Conrad Levinson, will be in charge of the marketing department.
Richard Branson - Director of Public Relations: Branson, founder of the Virgin group of companies, is the expert in generating free publicity. Recently his company ran an advertising campaign in Canada which used nurses as sex objects; this upset the Canadian Nurses Association and garnered so much free publicity. Not only that, he is master of publicity stunts such as dangling himself from a crane in New York City at the launch of Virgin Mobile USA. Perhaps, this group would not even need to seek free publicity. Having a business group like this get together would naturally attract media interest.
Mark Cuban - VP of Public Relations: Mark Cuban already has reality show experience with last year’s show The Benefactor. Plus, he already has a popular blog, Blog Maverick, that he can use as an online public relations tool.
Donald Trump - Director of Human Resources: What? Director of Human Resources? Donald Trump is a real estate mogul; he has no human resources experience. Yes, but he has experience hiring and firing people (you’re fired). I just hope he doesn’t try to fire Mark Cuban.
Pierre Omidyar - Software Developer: Pierre Omidyar is the creator of one of the biggest, most profitable, and most popular websites ever - eBay. He is my best choice for software developer.
Zig Ziglar - Senior Sales Rep: The father of the hard sell, Zig Ziglar, we’ll need to put his sales lead generation strategies and sales closing techniques to work to SELL SELL SELL!
Oprah Winfrey - Customer Service Rep: I don’t believe Oprah has any customer service experience. But, we need someone for customer service and Oprah, as successful as she is, would be successful at anything she does.
So there you have it, my executive dream team for Uber Company. Ten successful business professionals and entrepreneurs working together on a common project. This would be reality TV at its finest.
