Your home business requires that you build a reputation and a solid one at that. Many people in MLM do not seem to think that is is important.
They are wrong.
They hear you must brand from many sources, but yet for some reason it does not happen in their home based business. Many folks simply do not think it is a game changer and it is unnecessary.
Their question is NOT why is my busines slowly failing?
Here is what they are asking:
Why Brand my home business in social media?
You probably have asked this question before as well in your network marketing business..
Let’s get Real…
Maybe you have asked twice.
I know I did a few times in 2005-until the “light went on” and I discovered some things that proved to be worth 7 figures in business to our Brand.
But just what IS branding in home business social media and how do you participate in it?
Branding is a marketing technique, strategy, method, or action that has the massive potential to elevate your online and social media home business to the top. It involves helping your customers every time they think of you to form a recognizable association -mental , emotional, or other–with you.
What can you do to make that happen to your home based business so it works FOR YOU?
Link your business with a powerful and unique design, logo, slogan, and/or color and observe the positive results and imaging that starts to take place in people’s minds.
It is critical that you take the branding efforts to a new level and understand that there are 3 things that people look for in branding in a home business:
1) What they are FEELING.
Branding is all about emotion and feelings when it comes down to it. Either it feels RIGHT, or it does not. And if it does not, then your brand will be extinct before too long.
2) What people are SEEING on the video in their mind.
Videos are attention-grabbing clips that a business may produce to interest targeted or most popular market audiences on their product, services, or brand. These would be additional enticing promoting approaches to persuade prospective shoppers and customers. Videos ar dynamic promoting ways nowadays with their distinctive charm to specific business if diligent efforts ar incorporated into a dynamic video that captivates viewers’ attention and spurs interests.
The first factor you’ve got to {try to to|to try and do} with video promoting is to administer it a try. The additional you experiment, the higher your outcomes can become. strive everything that involves mind so fathom what works and what does not. this can be the simplest thanks to build video promoting palmy.
Looking for animation companies in singapore is very effective once it involves palmy on-line promoting as marketers determine what would enamor target audiences’ attention. it’s imperative for the business owner or vendor to think about the correct customization of their promoting or complete message betting on the business goals or client preferences.
This allows the business to make a compelling story with a selected message on the complete or company that might attract the eye of targeted market viewers.
3) What are they EXPECTING.
What is the prospect EXPECTING to happen or experience with your brand? This is critical because your brand must be consistent as well as credible.
Brands create a feeling of recognition, remembrance, and familiarity.
If customers have seen your logo or meme, insignia, or company name, they are more likely to continue to consistently select your product or service. Also, they are more apt to refer and suggest them to others. Referrals through word of mouth can be an extremely powerful form of advertising and it can build your brand and accelerate it.
A brand helps possible customers remember your mlm home business as well as the emotions surrounding it. (Nike). People may know little about your life and business philosophy or reputation. However, if they can recognize your brand, the chances are greater that they will do business with you.
Branding your home business creates memory in the mind of the public. We call it “Memory Magnet.” Your brand must draw people towards you and your message and product every time they think of it.
When the public remembers your brand and familiarizes themselves and others with it, they will come back. Customers are more likely to remain devoted to your mlm business and are apt to buy further products or services from you based on the brand of the initial product with which they had success.
This called building a book of business you can count on.
People are willing to pay more for home business products or services that they highly regard. This means that customers are likely to pass up cheaper prices with competitors if your brand has made a positive impression on them. If clients believe in your product, they will pay for it.
That is why you need to brand yourself as the “Premier Provider” in your niche and market, so you can charge what your brand is really worth to grow your network marketing business.
When you have distinguished and set yourself and your business apart through branding, the marketing has the capability of becoming so profound, that little else is necessary.
Developing your brand takes time and effort, but after it has been solidified, and after customers have had the chance to identify with it, your home business sales can increase naturally. You won’t have to spend as much time planning home business marketing strategies to attract the public in your social media marketing strategies for your mlm home business.

Learn the Secrets of Social Recruiting from a #1 Corporate Recruiter!
home business success start
In a home based business, there is NO more powerful Success secret than THE START.
Many people are stopped by the Start in MLM.They let their fears and old emotions get in the way and never really START the process of Success. Oh…they may start to INTEND to do something, but yet never get around to it.
Is that YOU?
Do you have a challenge of simply getting the key in the ignition and starting your Success Engine? You may think you are not ENOUGH, or do not HAVE ENOUGH, or maybe simply are not SMART ENOUGH.
Does NOT matter. I love this quote from one of our Presidents:
“Do what you can, with what you have, with where you are…”
Theodore Roosevelt
Start.
Just start.
Nike says it — “Just Do It!(tm)”
We say “Just Start!”
Doesn’t matter if you do not have all the education, training, tools or Success manuals for a Successful home business.
Doesn’t matter if timing isn’t perfect for a home business. Many times it will not be.
Doesn’t matter if you are not in the perfect place to do what your heart burns for, and has dream for, whether massive success, or massive lifestyle.
Start. Now.
The least known people in the world who got started years ago, now are millionaires/billionaires.
Steve Jobs.
He started Apple Computer — totally underfunded, understaffed, misunderstood.
But he got underway.
He Started.
Bill Gates.
He started. Well, you know, that Seattle company. He started in a dorm room, with no money, and only one gear:
Success OverDrive. And his drive is what got him over the tough spots.
He Started.
Michael Jordan.He started. And was stopped several times, but he kept starting over, and over. And well, you know. He did pretty good.
Boy did He Start!
And the list is endless.
All great Successes have one thing in common:
A Starting point. An Ignition. A Spark. A first step.
What are you not starting? And why aren’t you? Isn’t it TIME you STARTED heading towards a massive home business and quit playing around with it?
What is holding you back?
Fear? Doubt? Lack of Self Esteem? Lack of Knowledge? Bad Parents? Bad Childhood? Bad hair Day?
No Money? No Time? No Credit? No help? No education? No Way?
All the “Pat” excuses that everyone accepts as a “reasonable” factor not to do anything?
Who in THE World SOLD US ON THAT?
The average say, “Come on! Let’s be REASONABLE and not live in a fantasy world! Success is for others! Not in our family!”
There is no “Reasonable” with Creating Massive Success. Successful people are some of the most unreasonable people on earth. They refuse to listen to other’s reason for mediocrity and giving up.
Only the “Unreasonable” create new destinies for their life, and for thousands of others, and change becomes their mantra.
Reasonable is staying put. Unreasonable is Starting Power.
There are No excuses for not starting.
You wanna know what Start stands for?
“Success Taking Action (that) Removes Timidity.”
That’s why you need to Start.
The timid will never RULE in the marketplace.
What’s the VERY FIRST THING you need to do to create your Success Dream and Passion in your Life with your network marketing company?
Write it down.
Break it down into the 3-4 tasks required to complete it.
See it on the Movie Screen in your Mind as Successful.
Review it and Rehearse it on your “Screen”, over and over.
Get 2 pieces of paper.
On one, write all the reasons you cannot do this and succeed.
On the the other piece, write all the reasons you MUST do this and succeed.
NOW– Tear one of them up.
And if you chose the reasons you MUST Succeed:
Start. Just Start.
There’s where the Success Magnet is:
Being Totally, Radically, Absolutely Unreasonable in your Achievement and Success pursuit in your home business. Your STARTING will make such a powerful difference in your mind set and attitude it will blow you away.
GET SERIOUS and just START and watch your Success explode in your mlm home business!
Never fear Prospecting Again! Here is how to EXPLODE your Leads that want to talk to you!
Blessings…

home business phone fear
Home business success
can be quite trying at times. it was for me.
Especially when it came to the telephone. I was not a fan of calling people. It took me a while to get the hang of it and nearly hung me with it’s cord.
I could not for the life of me get past the fear of picking up the phone. It was strange.
Until I figured out some things that made it easier and much more lucrative.
Even in social media. You must take it offline sometime. And calling people you have already established contact with can be harrowing at times. It has happened many times to many people.
So….what you are saying is that you are having somewhat the same trouble as I did?
Welcome to this elite club my friend! Most folks go through this and it can be quite frustrating.
Ledt me tell you what happens…You look at the telephone and weird things start to happen? Sound familiar?
Let me see — I bet I can describe it. I went through it, and fortunately now teach how to conquer it for Home Business MLM and Network Marketing.
1) You get a knot in your stomach.
2) You get anxious and start dreading the call.
3) You actually start sweating and heart pounds.
4) You begin to think of other things you need to do.
5) You decide to go do them.
Sound famliar?
That is what I used to do constantly until one day we realized some things that made a HUGE difference in our phone calls in home business network marketing. When the “light went on” and we actually understood the Psychology of the Telephone, it made all the difference in the world.
On the telphone in mlm, your job really is to do one thing:
Separate.
Your job is to talk to people and separate people into 2 groups:
People that are OPEN to new ideas.
People that are not open to new ideas.
How simple. How profound.
And the ones that are not open to new ideas right now, are simply people you put in your ‘later’ file. You are a messenger, and every phone call is simply a delivery vehicle.
Either way, you have been successful at separating the people you talk to in network marketing.
And combine that with these three relizations, you will find some relief with Phone Struggle.
Here are the 3 realizations we had about the telephone in home business network marketing and what the REALITY is, versus what we think we are doing.
1) ALL a phone call is, is a CONVERSATION
That is it. It is simply a conversation that you have done a thousand times before. And the secret to getting past the phone phobia in MLM is to have NO agenda for the call except to hold a conversation with the person and see if they are open to a new idea.
That is it. You want to talk to them and see if they are open to a new idea that would help them. If they are not open, then talk about them. If they are open, then ask some questions about what they are looking to happen in their life and what they would like to improve. Have no agenda, except to help people, and if you can great. If you cannot, great. You have still held a conversation that went well.
2) Understand that all phone phobia is based on the fear of the wrong results.
If you knew you would get all yeses, then you would call people 24/7. But you know that you will not, so you get scared.
How about changing your paradigm?
How about looking at the phone call NOT from a results standpoint, but a PRACTICE standpoint, and you are calling people to practice and get better, and sharpen your skills? Results are partly a fruit of a good skill set and why not get better at it while you work?
Here is a Truth:
You are NOT in charge of results. You are only in charge of getting better at the phone which will improve your results dramatically.
Are you in the market currently for a $400,000 Bentley? No? If a friend of yours who is marketing them calls you and tells you about them, have they done something wrong? Just because they do not sell you one, should they quit selling them? Of course not. You simply were not in the market right now for one.
It is the same thing with your Home Business. Some people simply will not be in the market for the products or business you are marketing.
Do not worry about results. They will come. Worry about getting better, and getting an expertise in using the telephone that you can train your downline with.
3) Realize that Fear of the Phone is also an opinion. A wrong one.
You are calling to hold a conversation with someone to HELP THEM, not sell them or recruit them. Many people look at using the telephoine in network marketing as “bothering my friends.” That is an opinion in error. How can you bother friends when you calling to see if you can help them?
You do not know if they are who you are looking for, and if your mlm products and services are what they need. You are not bothering them, but offering them a message with some new information that could possibly help their life.
Make your opinion count. Get out of the “bother zone’ and into the “message zone.” You are NOT bothering peoeple. You are HELPING them. If your message is not received, then they are not open to new ideas. It is that simple.
Your job is to find out if they are open or not.
Ok….
Look at the phone.
Touch it.
This is your conversation tool. This is your Wealth Vault and holds the keys to a lot of money in your life and other’s lives.
Your job is to call people and talk about THEM, and see if they are open to a new idea.
You are not in charge of results, and you are not in charge of what they say. You are in charge of talking about them and what is BEST FOR THEM.
Dial the number.
Start your normal conversation and ask about their life, family, and job.
Ask for their help. You need some people to try your products.
If they say yes- you have succeeded. They are open to new ideas.
If they say no, you have succeeded. You have found that they are not open to new ideas.
Are you bleeding or need a doctor? No?
See? Do this over and over, and hold conversations with people about them and what is best for them. You will find your phone phobia going away.
I would suggest if you are looking to master the telephone, then start by getting past your fear of the phone. That has been stopping a lot of folks recently and I wanted to address this issue! Become a telephone master in your MLM Home Business!
Here is a GREAT Resource training to master the telephone!

home business NO
Home business entrepreneurs have to understand that they will run up against resistance.
I do mean Resistance. But not the kind that is physical. It is more mental and psychological. It is more emotional. But it is as devastating to some people as actually physical resistance.
It comes in the form of the word “NO.” Yeah yeah. I can hear you now. “I HATE the word NO!”
Ok…but do you KNOW WHY that you are getting that answer a lot? Have you studied the reasons why? Maybe I can help you understand better why this is happening.
Many people that have a home business face the fact that they get a never ending string of No’s and never really understand why. They end up getting discouraged, and then many simply walk away because they cannot handle the negative outcomes that keeps their MLM business in the doldrums.
Why do people continue to think that what they are doing is going to work if it isn’t working NOW? Amazingly, they continue to say and do the same things over and over and expect different results.
Yeah right. As if that is going to work.
And one of the biggest reasons that they get the word NO more than YES, is they do not understand why the prospect tells them NO. It really is quite simple to understand. But the average distributor/consultant does not think of that. They have an agenda and will stick to that agenda no matter what.
That is why they are average. Ahem.
They simply do not connect to the reality that what they are doing is encouraging the prospect
to say NO, not YES.
What if you could discover the 5 Biggest reasons that prospects say No?
Would that make a difference in your Success efforts? Of course it would. You have a goal of Success in your home business. But your prospect’s results are going to determine how your business goes.
So should you care about why they are telling you NO? OF COURSE! And that is the reason why for this article. So what are the 5 reasons why prospect’s tell you NO?
1) Lack of Perceived or Thought of VALUE.
One of the biggest mistakes made in networking and in home businesses, is not creating enough VALUE in what you are saying. You need to create extreme VALUE with your products, business, and especially your Leadership.
It is ALL ABOUT VALUE. No matter if it is social media, offline or internet marketing.
Value is what people are looking for. Value is what people are expecting. Value is what people demand, and if you do not create that with your conversation, then you probably are headed for the NO ZONE.
The NO ZONE is where lack of Value lives, and does it’s ugly work.
2) Bad Timing in the Prospect’s Life.
Many prospect’s life is not conducive for having a networking home business. Not every one has the perfect time for that. Some prospect’s have things going on in their life that you may not know about. Divorce. Finding a new job. Relationship challenges with kids. Parental challenges. Emotional challenges.
Many people have different things in their life going on that may prevent them from joining you in your business, or even purchasing a product. Don’t freak if that happens. They may even be in an emotional funk. That is ok. That will pass. You can talk to them again. Don’t get all upset and depressed.
Just go to the next name on your list.
3) Prospect does not feel comfortable with you.
OUCH! This one HURTS!
You may not sense it. You may not feel it. You may be oblivious to it. But it is there. The body language. The looking away. The silence. Not returning your phone calls.
Sometimes, the prospect simply does not feel comfortable with you. You really have done nothing wrong. You may have done a lot of things right. But yet,they do not feel comfortable with you. If this happens, and they say NO, ask them a simple question” “Help me understand this, Did I do something wrong in the process of sharing this with you?”
Odds are they will not tell you the truth, but they will know that you sense something that is not right. Move on to the next prospect and connect to that prospect in a powerful way.
4) They are Assuming the Wrong Things.
Many prospects assume that they have already heard this “pitch” before, and lump you into all the other network presentations they have heard. They assume you are no different. They assume you are only after their money. They assume you are not a professional. They assume you will disappear like all the others did.
Don’t.
Keep in touch and let them know of the updates as well as the Success you experience. Do not let their assuming that you are like all the others become the truth. Do something different. Be a professional. Stay in touch. Do not beg. Forget the business. Focus on the relationship.
You will be glad you did.
5) Bad Experience with a previous Company or Product.
“My mind is made up. Do NOT confuse me with the truth. I am living in the past.”
That is the slogan for these folks.
They simply do want to listen to you as they are still stinging from the last one that did not work. Or the last network marketing product that did not work. Or the last promise that did not work. Or the last person that became a part of the witness protection plan.
If someone tells you NO because they have had a bad experience with another home business company or product- say this:
‘Thank you for sharing that with me and I am so sorry. That is not right for anyone to get treated like that. Please tell me what happened as I do care about this and would like to make it up somehow…that is just not right.” And then listen to the prospect and let them talk. Many times they will talk themselves into doing business with you. Happened to me a lot.
Do not think it will work? Try it. You will be surprised.
These are the 5 Biggest reasons why prospects tell you NO. Learn them, and then turn them into something that will work FOR YOU- not against. Many times a NO is simply a “NOT NOW” in your Networking Home Business. Keep in touch, and keep in the Success Road.
NO is NOT the final word in many instances. They say “NO” because they do not “KNOW” yet. Sometimes, it takes more information, more education, sampling the product, another three way call, another post or video. This is critical that you NEVER accept NO as the final word.
NO = Not Now. Try again in the future. And keep focused on the ultimate goal: Getting a string of YESES for your home based business.
How do you turn your business around in 1 Minute or Less?

home business billion dollars
Home business
success requires growth and transformation along the way, no doubt.
Many people today play with their home business.
They refuse to GROW and STRETCH themselves like they should. They need to create a paradigm shift that will take their Thinking, Belief, Expectations, and RESULTS to a level they never thought possible.
If you do that one thing- people will start RESPONDING to you differently. They will be more positive as they will FEEL a level of Success they do not have in their life. You may not be there yet yourself, but you must create that paradigm shift in your mind.
But a BILLION DOLLAR Paradigm Shift?
Yep.
That is what happened to me with the 7 Billion Dollar Networker.He totally shifted my paradigm from thinking MILLIONS to BILLIONS in home business volume.
Think about the change and the level of thinking that would require from someone. A Billion dollars is a LOT of volume and money. So is a Million dollars, but what a shift in thinking that does to you.
When I made the Billion Dollar Shift in the mid 90s it was awesome. I started thinking much bigger and expecting much bigger. And it showed in how people responded to my conversations. “Billion” was not a part of most people’s perspective, and it really STRETCHED people in their home based business.
What about YOU?
What about thinking about doing a BILLION DOLLARS in volume in your home business?
Does it seem POSSIBLE?
Does it feel like it would FORCE YOU TO GROW?
It makes you MAGNETIC.
It would DRAW people towards you, as most do NOT talk billions. And when you tell someone that your goal is to help the company build a Billion Dollar Business….
THAT will get people’s attention in a whole new way. Your home business would take on a whole new level of image and power.
Have YOU thought of moving into the Billion Dollar Zone?
The first time I was introduced to think a Billion Dollars, I laughed. It was so foreign and out of reach. I was struggling to pay bills. But once I got a hold of it and understood that it is just a different and higher level of conversation, it eventually started feeling normal and natural.
And since then, and because I embraced the possibility…I have been blessed to build a Billion Dollar Success story.
Billion Dollar Prospecting is about that ONE THING:
Moving your prospecting success to a level that maybe may feel uncomfortable, but I can tell you- it will transform who you are when you move to that level.
Yeah, you may get the nay sayers and the neg-heads as I call them. But you will start seeing what is REALLY possible in your home business and MLM.
Do YOU have the gumption and the GUTS to take it to a Billion Dollar Level and Zone?
If you do, then you will enroll in the Billion Dollar Prospecting Course.
Do NOT be just the “freebies” takers that are not willing to invest in their home based business. Most people spend more than 37.00 at a dinner that is unhealthy and will not change anything their life.
Folks, we are talking LIFE Transforming here and Business Transforming education.
I encourage you to move to the Billion Dollar Level of Success! That is what Billion Dollar Prospecting will do- take your Lead generation to a whole new level and create a radical prospecting paradigm shift.
But do you have the GUTS to DO JUST THAT?
ENROLL NOW in the Billion Dollar Prospecting Course…
… and QUIT PLAYING WITH YOUR BUSINESS and SUCCESS.
It’s TIME to GET SERIOUS Folks. NOW! If I did not think this would help your business — I would not be talking about it.
If you are in network marketing, start RISING to the Level of a Billion Dollars at least in your mind. That is so critical as it will set you apart from the majority of people in network marketing. YOU are the BEST and deserve the best that life has to offer. RISE to the Billion Dollar Level NOW!
That thinking and belief level alone will start transforming your Success in your MLM Home Business!

mlm home business recruiting
MLM recruiting
for your home based business requires the right stuff.
It requires words and questions that PULL people towards you. I have always called it “PULL Conversation.”
It is a powerful way to work in social media, face to face, public meetings, in home parties, and just over a webinar or cell phone.
PULL Recruiting is a powerful way to build a team.
In today’s world, microwave speed communication is standard. In the news it is called ‘sound bytes” and that is what they are. They speak quick, a couple of sentences, if that. We all communicate today differently than we did even 15 years ago because of technology and culture.
That is why that you need a powerful “Stopper Question.”
This is a question in home business recruiting that STOPS the person for a second- and makes them think. In today’s world you must get their attention and a Stopper Question does. It has IMPACT and it says that this not just another communication.
There are many many MLM home business recruiting tactics out today that have proven to be successful.
There are tactics for social media and social networking. I have been blessed to teach a lot of them and learned a lot from other folks too!
There are home business recruiting tactics in party plans, and I have done a lot of work with those kinds of companies.
There are internet driven recruiting tactics and we have been blessed to have a lot of success online. There are a TON of good teachers out there as well that train on how to do this.
But no matter the style of recruiting and sponsoring new people in your home business, there is ONE QUESTION that you always ask the prospect.
And surprisingly many do not.
MLM recruiting in home business is based on finding people are are:
LOOKING.
That means they are looking for something in life that is not there currently. Many people often do not even realize they are looking for something until presented new possibilities for their life.
Sometimes, you have to “scratch that itch” if you will for that Looking to start. And when you start talking about lifestyle and success they have never experienced, it can start them looking your way very quickly.
So with that understanding, what is the ONE QUESTION in MLM recruiting you should ALWAYS ask no matter whether it is social media offline?
“Just curious…I asked my self this question recently, and it really shifted things for the better in my life. It’s a great question. What are you looking to improve or increase in your life – if you could?” <Answer>
“Tell me about it.” And then LISTEN.
“Let me share with you what I recently ran across that has really helped shift some things for the better in my life…”
Notice I did NOT say the word “change,” but “Improve” and “Increase.”
This one question I have taught for years for social media, online as well as offline, and there is a reason why it is so magnetic in mlm recruiting:
People are drawn to those kinds of people that are looking to do better, and want to help others do the same SINCERELY. Your question MUST come across like you are sincerely interested and care to know.
I cannot explain in this brief article why this works so well as that is a much longer write, but I can tell you…IT DOES WORK no matter the communication arena.
Whether on facebook, twitter, or LinkedIn, ask this one PULLING Question and you will find your prospect moving towards you in the conversation because in your home business, you have asked THE ONE QUESTION that draws people into your MLM recruiting conversation.
And their answer will let you know where you need to take the conversation to start talking to them about their own home business in mlm recruiting.

home business social media
Home Business Social Media is:
If you understand social media in home business, you will know that Conversation is the FOCUS and BULLS EYE of social media. Many people think that there are other more important things in home business social media.
Like sales and grabbing for their wallets.
That is why still companies struggle with the arena of social networking. They still are stuck on traditional communication in marketing, not understanding today it is about Conversation and using Magnetic Words that will PULL people into your network amd community.
Conversation- NOT Presentaiton. That does not work today in social media for your MLM home business.
Yep- that is what the core focus is in Home Business Social Media.
Ok- let’s get REAL. If Social Media marketing is about conversation, then should there not be words that fit in to what the culture of social media is all about? Should not you paint a picture with your words? Should your words not elicit feelings and emotions?
Of course they should.
Words are a home business marketer’s tool box. Here are 11 you need
1) “YOU.”
There is nothing more powerful to a person reading a message or conversation that has the word YOU in it, over and over. Many people have an “I” mentality, and in mlm social media, you are not the deal. The other person or side of the conversation is.
There are 2 forms of conversation in social media::
a) “Contribution” and b) “Distribution.”
” Contribution conversations” contribute to the whole, and add Value to the conversation. “Distribution conversation” distributes the message/agenda you want- and has little inclusion of someone else. Contribution words use YOU many times. Distribution words use “I” or ‘Me” many times. Use the word YOU and become a Contribution Agent in social media, not a distribution rookie.
2) “A Person’s Name.”
Duh. There is nothing more beautiful to a person than their name. This is a given. I am surprised how many tweets, notes, and messages I get and also read that do not say the person’s name. Use their name at least once in every communication and message as it adds to the conversation.
And also, a person will retain almost 70% more of what a message says, if their name is within the first 3 words. Chris Brogan is a master at this. I have seen and studied him, and every time he tweets or sends a message- usually the name is the first word.
Smart. VERY smart. we all should follow that lead.
3) “Connection.”
This word is an indication that you want to connect and start a relationship of some kind and create an ongoing conversation. Many folks use the phrase “get together” or “meet up” or “network.” These words are good- but CONNECT has a power within the word.
Electricity us usable when you connect to it. Same thing as a battery in a car which powers the car. And idea is only powerful when you CONNECT to it. The Power is in the Connection-when 2 things come together. It is the same in new relationships- it is all about CONNECTION.
4) “Tribes.’
This is an interesting word. Seth Godin has a cool book called “Tribes.” I suggest that you read it. But as far as a word for the social media arena, it is a word that helps define that you are within the culture and understand the community aspects of what social media is about.
In tribes around the world, it is all about community and belonging to that community. It is the same in social media. Recently I described the community we are building within a project as an “empowered tribe” and some people got it- and well, others did not.
Make sure if they do not understand the concept of tribes, then you explain it.
5) “Transparent.”
In home business social media, being REAL is critical. And part of being REAL is being open and transparent. I love it when I read statements like “full disclosure” and people are disclosing that they have an interest or are on some board of a company they are talking about. THAT is so rocking hot. It shows that they are being transparent and nothing to hide and telling the truth.
And that is what social media is about in many respects- TRUTH about you- and what you are and do. THAT is transparency. Use that word when talking about the truth. Just being “transparent” – that says a lot in one word about you.
6) “Strategy.”
MLM Social media without a strategy for it, is like building a house without a blueprint. You need to develop, plan, start, and execute a strategy for your social media success. We call it a “Social Media Path.” What PATH do you plan on developing for your business, and how will that fit into your current model of business? What will be your Primary social media Platform, and what will be your secondary platforms?
PATH stands for “Purpose- Actions-Tracking-How.” what is your PURPOSE for integrating social media into your home business? Marketing? Prospecting? Client communication? Customer service? What ACTIONS will it take? Videos? Blogs? Podcasts? Social Networking? What TRACKING system will you use to keep the platforms at maximum pace? And HOW are you going to Execute the Actions? Through employees? Through outsourcing? Through a combination? Learn more information about live chat outsourcing philippines to help you increase sales.
Strategy is a word that you just talk about. You need one. And so do others that you know as well.
7) “Branding.”
This word has been around for a while. But you still need it in your focus and communication. Branding is a word that you need to utilize not only in your messages, but your focus as well.
YOU are the Brand is a popular way to discuss social media marketplace image making. But that is not totally true. The PERCEPTION of you is the brand you are building- good or not so good. So make sure that if you use this word in social media this year, you realize that PERCEPTION Rules in Branding.
Brand yourself in the marketplace. But make sure that you focus on the VIEW and FEELINGS people have of you and experience when they think of you and what you do- and not just some catchy slogan or icon.
8) “Trust.”
You need to be an Agent of Trust. Chris Brogan has written a book called “Trust Agents.” It is a rocking hot book. What about you? Are you an Agent of Trust? Just like a Real Estate Agent markets real estate, you market Trust in all you do. That is the real estate of the heart.
I like to get that word out there quickly-as I believe that people i do not know, that is on their mind. “Can I trust this guy?” And I usually message something like, “Our company helps build leaders and businesses through concepts and ideas that people can trust and feel good about.”
THAT is using the word Trust- to build trust.
9) “Family.”
Some people use “network.” Some use “team.” Some use the word “community.” Some use the word “friends.” I like the word “Family.” it is personal, powerful, and paints a picture of what home business social media really is building- a family that can help, be there for each other, educate, equip, and empower for greater good.
One thing that I do- and again- just an idea, I welcome everyone on Facebook or twitter or YouTube or any other social connection with “Welcome to the family!” This says so much more than “thanks for following me” or “appreciate the connection.” We ARE family- and I hope and pray it stays that way.
10) “Value.”
It is ALL about Value. It is all about the VALUE that YOU bring to the table. It is all about the VALUE of your conversations and contributions.
And it is ALL about the VALUE that you help others see within themselves. Edify. Encourage. Empower. And become a “Carrier of Value” to everyone you meet in social media and GIVE some Value to them.
11) “GIVE.”
This is the MOST important word. GIVE. Why? In social media, it is not the same ol business methodology. It is Biblical- if you will. “Give first- and what you give- you reap.” Giving is the culture of Social Media. Why do you think that people give so much rocking hot info on their blogs?
Giving is a Power. It is something that not only is part of the evolving culture of social media, but also the CATALYST of much of what social media has already become. if you are a marketer, New Marketing can be almost threatening to you as it flies in the face of traditional marketing- or does it?
No- not really. It is simply marketing that puts PEOPLE FIRST- not profits. It put RELATIONSHIPS FIRST- not results. And it puts GIVING FIRST- not grabbing for their checkbook.
These are the 11 Critical words that I believe should be included in your:
1) Social Media Philosophy.
2) Social Media Conversations.
3) Social Media Marketing Actions.
4) Social Media Core.
If you do, your Success should be rapid in home business social media marketing.

mlm home business
Home business
in MLM has a hidden power that most are unaware of to help people.
It can be a Change Agent for your life if you let it. Many people think that the MLM or Home Business or Network Marketing profession are for those people that cannot find jobs.
LOL
That is such a myth.
Many professionals from other professions are coming into network marketing because of this hidden power that many home based business professionals use but use unknowingly.
Gravity is such a power. You are influenced by Gravity everyday, but yet you never really are that much aware of it. You really do not spend that much time thinking about it.
It just happens and keeps you from floating away.
It is the same with the Hidden Power of an MLM Home Business.
The other day I was on a three way coaching call and saw this in action and it was really rocking hot to see. I quietly listened taking notes and then when the hidden power was unleashed- wow. It was a game changer.
There are many different “powers” to owning a home business but this one is the one that really helps you along to recruit and to sponsor a lot of folks.
Ok…enough of the babble. What hidden power am I talking about that influences people to enroll in your business?
DISGUST.
Many people are disgusted with what is going on in their life. They are disgusted with their income. They are disgusted with their job. They are disgusted with their recent raise or lack of one. They are disgusted with who they work with. They are disgusted with the lack of power and options they have to change it.
They are disgusted because they think they are POWERLESS to do anything.
That is where you come in.
You are the knight (or princess) in shining armor that is going to do 3 things:
1. Expose the pain.
2. Enlarge the pain.
3. Relieve the pain,
How?
Create a conversation that finds out and Exposes what they are really not happy about in their life.
“What is the one thing you would give anything to change in your life?”
Then Enlarge the pain by observing that the way their life is going, it probably will only get worse.
“Wow. I am so sorry. Do you see much change happening there or maybe it getting worse?”
Then Relieve the pain by offering them a solution to their disgust with options with your business and products.
“I have an idea that I am not sure that it would be for you, but would like to run it past you. It has helped a lot of people move out of the position you seem to be in. Let me explain…”
You have with a Home Business the hidden power of what I call “Disgust Busters!”You can help people get past the disgust with where they are in life with simply a little conversation and bringing in that DB power in 3 simple steps.
If you do that, you will help a lot of people with your MLM Home Business.
