Succumbing to EVIL Shortcut-ish Temptations and Forgetting the “Social” In Social Media
| |
| Social media is turning marketing and public relations upside down. The rules of the game are changing and shifting, and amidst all of this wonderful, innovation-driven chaos, many get into social media without keeping a focus on the “social” in social media.
How many times have you gotten onboard a social media website, went on an “adding friends” wild spree, starting sending links to these new so-called friends and wished for the best? I don’t know about you but I’ve had several attempts with different social media sites. Many failed, and some succeeded. |

What is a Life Coach?
| |
| As a home-based business owner and avid network marketer, I am always finding myself at various meet-and-greets throughout Chicagoland. Like a good little schoolgirl, my 30-second elevator speech is well-prepared to roll off my tongue at every introduction. My new acquaintances have a knack for exchanging quizzical looks at the end of my spiel before asking, "yeah, um, so what is a life coach?" Exasperated that my prepared speech is never enough, I began researching the definition of life coach in order to develop a more refined explanation to have at the ready. The following is what I have come up with. |

Thus, it is a crucial determinant of how well your business will do - particularly how good you are at retaining customers and generating repeat business.

How To Communicate Better With A Business Partner
| |
| About one-third of our business coaching clients have involved situations where there are multiple owners in the business. This has included spouses, siblings, parents & kids, in-laws, friends, and business acquaintances.
One of the biggest struggles with multiple owners is getting all the owners on the same page. When the business is first formed, everyone is usually on the same page. But as the months and years go by, it's easy to drift apart.
Here are a couple of keys for better communication with your business partner:
1. Understand Behavior Styles
2. Keep The Appointments
3. Do What You Say You're Going To Do
4. If You Feel It, Say It |

MLM Marketing versus Attraction Marketing -- Who Wins?
| |
| In traditional MLM companies, the marketing program hasn't changed in years.
People who join an MLM opportunity are instructed to contact family and friends
to "convince" them that this new opportunity is the answer to all of their
financial problems. Next they are told to make a list of "acquaintances" - at

The acquaintances will then eagerly hand over their hard earned money to become
part of this money making endeavor. |

Social Media, Marketing and the ROI Dilemma
| |
| Unlike Google, which serves as a basic search engine, Facbook, Twitter and other social media sites have markedly different formats and face very different marketing challenges. Originally developed for friends and acquaintances to interact, the posting and images on social media sites can often be confrontational, controversial and at times obscene. The very quality that makes social media sites so attractive, the free flow of content, is precisely what makes advertisers so very cautious. |

Where Is Your MLM Market?
| |
| Your MLM market isn’t comprised of friends and family members or even neighbors, old acquaintances or strangers. Your MLM market is the lead list you compile from specific individuals who fit within a well defined niche. |

Playing the Name Game
| |
| You've probably heard the old saying that there is no sweeter sound to the human ear than the sound of one's own name. It's true. You can impress the heck out of new acquaintances if you just remember and use their names, and you'll be remembered (Name Game bonus!). |

Talent is Never Enough
| |
| I have been dumbfounded recently by running into several long-time acquaintances who are down on their luck. These are guys who were used to first class all the way – restaurants, cars, private flights, yachts and houses. And now they have been dealing with selling clothes on eBay to pay the apartment rent, parking the car because gas is too expensive, and eating at McDonalds. |
