Are You Doing Business By Shaking Hands Online

We all understand the importance of doing business properly which means shaking hands with your prospects, you may be asking yourself how can you do that electronically through a computer??

Let me tell you exactly how to do it from your very own home computer.....

First of all you need to register with an online community now there are various ones such as MSN, Yahoo, ICQ, AOL and many more which can all give you access to millions of prospects online that you can effectively promote your business opportunity too.

I reccomend AOL the reason being is that it is one of the internets oldest and easiest to use online services with more members than most online communities therefore giving you access to more prospects than your business may well be able to handle. Once you have registered with your community in this case assuming that it is AOL, you must then start to create your member profile.

Now your online profile has to be as interesting and targetted as possible, it should contain information such as your full name, world location, age, hobbies, occupation and your skills. On your profile you must provide as much information as you can provided you also keep it relevant, the reason being if you have a bad profile people are not going to want to chat however on the other hand if you have an extremely interesting profile you will get a much better response from your prospects.

The time has now come to perform a search in the member directory in order to find prospects. The ways in which you can do this are simply by entering the location, interests, age or sex of the type of prospects you are looking for, the more information you provide during your search the better quality of prospects you will find.

Once you have filtered through your search results you must then send your prospects an instant message some good hook lines that have been tried and tested by me are listed below.

"Hi there I was just taking a break at work when I did a search of the member directory and I found your profile, you have a really good one"

"Ive just been looking through your profile and I noticed you play golf I also have a very keen interest in golf"

"From reading your profile I can see that you swim alot Im currently working as a lifeguard"

"I see you currently work in network marketing so do I, how long have you been doing it for?"

After starting a conversation with your prospects you may well eventually get asked the question is this network marketing?

Below are some replies which i currently use....

"What is your understanding of network marketing? Do you know much about it?"

"Do you like network marketing?"

"Have you ever tried network marketing?"

The most important thing to remember is even if you do not promote your business during your early conversations with your new prospects you will however have built a relationship with them and can then follow up with them on a regular basis and build a certain level of trust also, when they log online you must wait around 5 minutes before sending them any instant messages.

The Art of Business Networking in a New Age

Business networking is a decade old concept of doing business, which has grown immensely. With the advent of internet, business networking has gone from strength to strength and has generated millions of dollars in business. Although business networking is individual based and marketing oriented, it has brought to the fore many a product that eluded the reach of many people.

These business networks have a business model that is also known as multilevel marketing. The business model follows the system of appointing individual distributors that work with the company by selling the products as well as appointing other distributors under them. Basically the earning of the individual is partly from margins generated by sale of goods and a percentage of sales achieved by the distributors they appoint. A business network individual grows by appointing distributors under him and motivating them to appoint more under them. The level of earning under each network depends upon the network statistics and percentages as laid down by the parent company.

Many innovative business networking schemes keep cropping up anew day after day and one need not be surprised if an invitation comes your way. They are easy to run and easy to sell. This is so, because these business networks target the people near and around a business person, like relatives, friends, colleagues and acquaintances. When a good business networking opportunity comes across, it becomes keeping in touch and earning money all the more fun.

These business networking schemes also help increase your circle of friends and acquaintances and help to increase one's social influence and business presence that may be unrelated to the network business itself.

The best way to go about taking up a business networking proposition is to select the best available sponsor. The sponsor should be able to guide a new independent distributor in the initial stages of business and help learn the finer nuances. He or she should be able to act as a friend, philosopher and guide. Taking the business slow at the beginning would be good, so that a new distributor can break teeth into it. Most business networking programs offer excellent and peerless training sessions that change your outlook towards life forever.

No question about it; you provide one of the most valuable services imaginable. However, without an ongoing and ever-increasing number of new, quality prospects, you'll eventually run out of people with whom to share the benefits. You might even end up asking yourself that most dreaded of questions in the world of sales, which is, "Who do I talk to next, now that my original list of names has run out?" That thought can be downright discouraging, can't it? Then again, it need not happen.
