Many people seem to be going through a spiritual awakening. Their desire for understanding and purpose was stimulated by the movie, The Secret, and further fueled by our current economic "meltdown".
They are seeking a way to put passion and purpose into their lives, and are tired of giving their power to others. "Just getting by" is no longer enough, and they truly want a clear path to financial freedom.
But along with their desires comes a huge resistance to "being sold" on a product, service or opportunity. They are looking for someone who takes the time to connect with them and listen to their needs and desires. They are willing to buy or join your business, but only if they can deal with someone that 'feels right", and can truly provide the solution they are seeking.
For those who hate traditional sales, this change is a dream come true! It allows networkers to truly be authentic in their business and make some amazing money through providing products, services and guidance to others.
If you are tired of all of those links being directed "at you" on Twitter, Facebook and in your emails, then you know what I am talking about. The tactic of throwing your links all over the place with the hope that some will stick is no longer effective. People are refusing to click on those links and be "marketed to". It just doesn't feel good. Neither does the sneaky home meeting, or pitching your product or opportunity to anyone that comes within 3 feet!
Times have changed, and if you recognize it and market differently, you will be abundantly rewarded.
Be authentic - people will be drawn to the truth of who you are.
Listen to what people are looking for. They will be thrilled to have someone actually care about them.
Offer your business, products and services as a potential solution to their problem or the answer they are seeking. Refer them to other resources that may also help. Simply care and share!
Money is an energetic exchange, and they will happily exchange their money with the person that helps them to meet their needs.
Network marketing is an amazing industry. It's the quickest path to success and financial freedom for the average person. As people begin to market consciously and authentically, they will find success beyond their wildest dreams.
