How Many Network Marketers Are Blowing It During Covid19

Network Marketing is a fabulous opportunity when done right, and a nightmare on steroids when done wrong.

Here are a few ways network marketers are blowing it for themselves and the profession of Network Marketing by what they say, how they act, and show up on Social Media.

And, to be sure, the FTC is not taking income or health claims made lightly. The smack down is happening.

Crisis brings out the best and the worst. 600% surge in Google Search on most keywords having to do with work at home. Home business, etc.

Does Success Come From Self Confidence?

Most people think that success comes from having self confidence.

But, it’s a funny thing. In most interviews I listen to of successful entrepreneurs, most say the same thing - they struggled terribly with lack of self confidence.

You may know exactly what I am talking about.

I think back on my own journey and struggles with not feeling good enough.

It’s funny though. I have always spoken the words - I am self confident.

Looking back, I’m not sure that this was true. I just used different words. Because I know for sure that “self worth” or being good enough was an ongoing struggle.

I had a lot of “mean girl” issues from 4th grade to 6th grade. A circle of 4 of us and one or two of us - mostly me and one other girl - where always the target of mainly the ring leader, and her side kick.

In 7th grade, when I moved on to Junior High School, I bolted from that group and made...

Who Is Most Important in Your Network Marketing Business

3 Most important people in your network marketing business. I’m filming this during the COVID-19 pandemic, quarantined at home. For a lot of people, business has come to a standstill. There’s fear, anxiety and questioning about what’s going to come next.

First, calm down as much as you can, and know that at some point we will return to normal life. Any time there’s an economic downturn or rough situations, be aware of falling into the trap of thinking about these 2 types of people, too much.

Real estate, has suffered some challenges now, as people are holding off.

But, home business searches are trending up 600% in Google Search.

Don't Let Fear Derail You

Fear is either a story from the past or something that has not happened, and probably won’t, projected into the future. Mindset mastery is the key to success in Network Marketing.

How to Build Your Brand Through Your Social Media Content

It can be so much fun, and so rewarding, and successful to create your brand through your social media content.

We can get overwhelmed and consumed with the concept of what is a Brand?

But really and truly your brand is just a compilation of who you are.

So I like to start everybody with doing a personal inventory. What are your likes, your interest, passions, mission work, what do you stand for, why are you in your business?

Success on Social Media is About Your Content

Here are a few ideas to use when thinking about your intention and goals when you create content for social media. You’re going to be sharing out there regularly, and you want to make sure that you are targeting people from all different areas.

Our goals and intentions revolve most often around:

Creating Awareness

 

Creating Interest

 

Creating Raving fans

 

Creating Buyers or clients

Your social media strategy is best served when it incorporates all of these into what it is that you share. We have an ideal client, a targeted audience, and much of what we do from a more business, educational perspective is going to be geared toward that ideal client.

But what about others who are out there, who might be our ideal client they just aren’t in our particular area online right now?

Our goals on social media are to inspire, entertain, and educate. And it’s great to incorporate a...
