In a home business or mlm business, prospecting and finding good candidates for your business is imperative.Especailly PROFESSIONAL Candidates. If you do take the time to connect with GREAT leads, you often can be wasting your time with folks.

 The social media site LinkedIn has proven to be a GOLD MINE in finding great candidates for your business of network marketing. It is a place that houses over 120 MILLION professionals that average 107,000.00 in income a year.

Not shabby.

 With today’s marketplace, many professionals are SEEKING additional ways to drive revenues in their business as well as personal income, And LinkedIn is a GREAT place to connect with people and find the ones that are truly looking and OPEN to something new and additional cash flow.

There is a certain psychology in LinkedIn that I have noticed, and you MUST be adept to the nuances of it. Unlike any other social site I have been on, LinkedIn has it’s own culture, and it’s own rules that much are psychologically driven.

 The FIRST Psychological Rule of LinkedIn Recruiting is this found in ONE WORD:

 PROFESSIONAL.

 That is the KEY to this social site.

 Unlike facebook and twitter, LinkedIn DEMANDS from the very rules themselves a Professional approach, a Professional communication style, and a Professional mind set.

 What works on other social sites, DOES NOT WORK on LinkedIn. It is a step above the rest, and that includes facebook, Google+ and twitter. Yes, you need to connect with people and also to create relationships- no doubt. But you MUST create those relationships seen and sensed as a PROFESSIONAL Home Business Marketer, and not some “part time I want to recruit you I am going to make you rich” amateur.

 I see that often on LinkedIn and the person acting that way often does not even realize he / she is doing it.

 That is why I want to ask you 3 questions:

 1. Are you using LinkedIn daily?

 2. Are you creating a PROFESSIONAL BRAND on LinkedIn?

 3. Are you finding High Quality Prospects on LinkedIn?

 If you are NOT then I would suggest you look into it. Because you can find more quality professionals in a DAY on LinkedIn then you can in a week on any other social site. It is that powerful.

 Professional is the key word for LinkedIn.

 In EVERY aspect of brand building.

 You must be professional in your:

 Thinking. This is critical. Professional means you filter your thoughts through the lens of Leadership.

 Actions.  Your actions are your calling card on LinkedIn. Make sure that you act Professional and any and all requests are acted upon accordingly.

 Words.  Your communications must be Professional and focused on HELPING other Professionals. Yes, you want to find great candidates for your business, but FIRST  become a GREAT CANDIDATE for helping others in their business quest. It can be a simple “atta girl: or “atta boy.”

 Visibility.  You must be Visible on LinkedIn and there are many way to do that. But however you choose, BE PROFESSIONAL in your visibility.

 Connections. People on LinkedIn want to feel RESPECTED and Looked Up To. I have observed this for 6 years. Everything communication should sound respectful and you admire their Success. Yes, it may sound corny, but that is how many people are on LinkedIn. And may DO deserve that level of respect.

 Encouragement.  The secret to LinkedIn is to become an “Elevator” and elevate people through your encouragement. That alone will start branding you as a professional quickly.

 And the final thought is create a:

 “Professional Feeling” about who you are. When people think of you, or communicate with you, make sure that they FEEL the Professional side of you, and sense that you truly are one. Use the words that Professionals use, and NOT the words that so many marketers hype with.

 That does not play well on LinkedIn nor for the Success of  for your home business.
