[M311]Mastering The Art Of French Cooking 1961

by Ryan Blake, Rya

Multi-level-marketing (MLM) or network marketing is a marketing method where a product is sold through a network of distributors. Therefore, social networking is the backbone of MLM. If you already have a great and wide social network then rest assured that you will get a decent start with your MLM activities. For those, however, do not have a potentially strong social network, proliferating their network is one extra and very tough first step they need to take before direct marketing starts paying them decent returns. You need social network because MLM products and services are sold on the basis of trust.

MLM game revolves around credibility. It works like this. In your social network there are some to many people, if not all, people trust you. Reason being, a person believes in you because of your authenticity and he/she feels that the products you are promoting are equally authentic because a ?credible? source is selling it. For one-time sales this mutual trust factor works wonders.

Next step comes when the customers try out the product and based on their experience a positive or negative word of mouth prevails. Now, more business will come in through resale, and a positive word of mouth brings in new customers through your already existing customers. This is network and this is how it defines the flow of your network marketing business.

If you wish to establish an absolutely new network, you may resort to network marketing prospecting sites. These sites provide you a list of leads and clients and also assist you in strategizing your promotional campaign. Online network marketing also gives you access to global customers. Since network marketing through internet is still an evolving area, it is better to refer to some online network marketing tips before proceeding to draft your own.

As we know now that MLM involves a network of people, it is very important that each network should work like an organization. There should be a common and honest team effort towards marketing the product to reach fruitful results. Both success and failures are important in network marketing. If one succeeds in an MLM network, every distributor in that particular network gets a share of that success and vice versa. Therefore, to target success, it is important that your network shares your winning formula and you share that of your network's.

MLM belongs to the fundamentals of co-ordination, diligence, support and honesty. These four factors can lay a strong foundation of your marketing network so that you achieve what you are aiming at.

Have you ever been to a social event and watched someone with an "Aw Shucks, I'm from a farm down home" look about them because they can't string two words together. They may be too shy or just have nothing to say. Either way, it's not pretty. In most cases it's not because a person can't hold a conversation, it's because they haven't prepared for conversation. As with everything in life, great conversationalists understand this simple but important tenet: proper planning prevents poor performance (P5).

The following six steps should help you be better prepared when you next enter a room full of people.

Say something

Readers are leaders and good conversationalists. Keep up to speed with the latest events happening in your world through newspapers, television and radio. There's always something topical happening ... make sure you know about it and that you have an opinion on it.

Ooze with confidence

Confidence is a massively attractive trait. People like talking to confident, authoritative and powerful people because it makes them feel safe. You'll attract more people to you than bees to a honey pot if you can appear confident.

Eye contact is critical

Make sure that you establish good eye contact when speaking to someone. Not the Charles Manson "thousand yard stare" kind of eye contact ... that's just scary. Never break eye contact when you're busy making an important point. If you start looking like a sneaky, edgy Coyote, it puts doubt on your integrity and on the validity of your words. So does touching your face, nose and ears whilst speaking. This just makes you look like a fibber. This normally happens when you're not sure of yourself or your subject. Sigmund Freud once said that the body oozes deceit.

Compliments help you make friends

We all love compliments don't we? Make the compliment sincere, brief and specific. Most important of all, the compliment must be based on fact otherwise it just becomes empty flattery. For instance, if you saw someone helping an old lady carry her groceries to her car, your compliment would go something like this: "When I saw you helping that old lady with her groceries the other day, I realized that you're a kind and thoughtful person." That compliment is based on evidence.

However, if you say, "That's a beautiful red tie you're wearing ... wow, you're a real go-getter and confident person." Well, that's just plain old flattery, isn't it? Wearing a red tie is certainly not evidence of any kind of personality trait, is it? Of course, if someone compliments you, you should react in an appropriate way. When you receive a compliment, simply smile and say "thank you". By doing this, you do wonders for your confidence and you acknowledge the thoughtfulness (and courage) of the person who complimented you.

Become a great listener

Any conversation should follow the 80/20 rule. You do 20 percent of the talking and the rest of the time you're listening. People like to talk, so let them talk. It makes them feel important and it turns you into a friend. And, the bonus is that they think you're a great conversationalist. Sometimes its hard to get someone to open up. You can get them talking by ...

Asking great questions

Ask elaborating questions that force a person to open up. Here are some examples: "Really?" "How did that make you feel?" "That must have been exciting. Tell me more."

Try some of these tips next time you're at a cocktail party or conference and become the person people want to listen to.
