How SPAMMING Helps You Make Friends!

[cohawk]

Well...it doesn't.

So why do people continue to post canned messages, banners, and links on other members' pages? Do some people actually consider that networking?

Let's GET REAL, folks. Some people are networking the exact same way they market, yet they wonder why they aren't selling anything. The same replicated actions will produce the same replicated results.

So how do we fix this?

Simple...

1) Get Real. Networking is all about relationship building. You have to keep in mind that you are networking with other people... not their computers. Show some personality.

2) Get Creative. Copy and pasting may simplify leaving long welcome messages. But why would you want to leave a long message to introduce yourself? Less is More in this day and age. Besides, do you REALLY want to give someone the chore of reading paragraph after paragraph as way of introducing yourself? Come on...

3) Get Off the "High Horse". Understand that we are all entrepreneurs here, and in most cases are already running our own business or opportunity. That being said, have some dignity before pitching an opportunity as a way of saying hello. Do you like when telemarketers call you? Boy, I don't... and in my eyes a person that tells me to "click here" or "read this free ebook" is a tell-tale sign of a person that hasn't learned the art of prospecting.


Some people may disagree with the views in this discussion, but let me ask you this... How's that working out for you? I just encourage everyone to GET REAL and try something new. I'm sure I'm not alone when I say it is our duty to change the face of the thing we call Internet Marketing. I think it's time to start right now...

Who's with me?


All the Best,
Cohawk

Say It Again Cohawk! There are some that are hard of hearing (lol) so say it LOUD & CLEAR!
I wrote a blog pretty much along the same lines, you can check it out on my page and let me know what you think by leaving a comment if you like. As I branch out and join other social networks, I unfortunately find the same thing. Maybe the definition of "Social Networking" needs to be reiterated more often. Eventually I just ban "Offenders of the Comment Wall" on my page. If they aren't taking the time to visit my page, you know reading a blog post or checking out what I have to say, I know they are only commenting to provide themselves with a free AD and I ban them. Somehow I feel like I am NOT the one missing out here, they are and what a shame!

Thank You Cohawk,

It feels good knowing that the vision we have for NMC and wanting to see a shift from spamming to building relationships based on value, is shared. What you wrote speaks loud and clear and is also the planting of seeds for change.

Unfortunitly, it is still happening here and through out the Network Marketing industry on and off the net, Adding more and more people JUST to spam to them...Is seen by all as broke and desperate, end of story. I also do realize that we all have our struggles in this industry and it's natrual to want to get things going and at least make something to tide us over and some may make a FEW sales by add and spam, but that's all it will ever be, a few sales if that.

I as well had to make changes and not lead with business and learn to lead with "Brian Mauk", that is the business that I am promoting and branding because I don't want to make a few sales. I want a lifestyle for my family and myself 5-10 years down the road. Branding one's self as a credible, knowledgable marketer who becomes a "go to" person for others is a person who will have the possibilities of life and wealth open up for them. A person who is just trying to make sales will always be a person who is just trying to make sales and it's easy to see who is who..

Thanks Cohawk and Best to you,

Brian Mauk

Hey Greg,
Wow...You said it!! I am with you 1000%!!

Funny thing...I was just going to make my comment about "How To Make Friends On NMC" that I made in my Marketing Tips group into a blog......and I just happened upon your new blog post!!!
Well, our blogs should work cohesively together!! :)

Way to go......since you are an admin, can you send this to all the members??? Ya think they might just then "GET REAL"??????

As always, you have a wonderful way with words!!!

Smiles,
Debbie :)
