Get the Word out, You’re open for Business

How you view your home based business has a lot to do with how you market your business. Ask yourself where McDonald’s, Macy’s, or Home Depot would be today, if you were in charge of their marketing program. Most new representatives in Network Marketing make similar mistakes. They market their business like they paid less than $500 dollars for it. OK so you did pay less than $500 for it, I am willing to bet the people in your opportunity who are making the most money, don’t market their business with that mindset.

Let’s get you marketing the most effective way to see results. The objective of your marketing campaign is to let people know your doors are open for business. The first people you should contact and the easiest to contact, are people in your warm market. This is why your sponsored suggested that you make a list of everyone you know and start calling them. Your goal when you call your warm market is to let them know you are in business. You also want to ask them for their support, referrals and whether they would be interested in finding out more about the opportunity.

When you build this list make it long, don’t try to decide who you should or should not call, call everyone. You want to go through this list as fast as possible; this is your first lesson in Network Marketing it’s a numbers game. Again, the top earners in your opportunity are the ones who have shared the opportunity with the most people.

Now that we have gotten the warm market out of the way, the next step is what will make or break your business. Not many people reach their goals and dreams for their business by just calling their warm market. Your ability to get the word out to the masses is the key factor in your overall success.
Let’s start by thinking of ways to get the word out to the masses. Remember earlier in this article, I asked, where would the big companies be, if you were in charge of their marketing program? I hope you are saying, they would be where they are today, because you are going to do the same with your business.

That is how you go about your marketing program, do what the big boys are do, just do it within your budget. Some of the sources I like to use to get the word out about my business are the Internet, print media, and good old fashion handouts. I’m not going to give specific techniques but if you work in these three areas you will get success. The point I want you to get from this article is, duplicate what works on you. If the big companies do something that moves you to buy from them, duplicate it to your business.

Now in the words of that great philosopher Michael Jordan, Just do it!!!!
