One of the most important, and most widely overlooked aspects of online marketing, is introducing yourself to other people. The biggest reason for this is, people get so involved with their program, their business, and the money!
Wanting to share information about your business is a great thing. You need to know the ins and outs of your business so you can give an informative reply when asked about different product, services, or terms of what you market.
Say you are standing in line at the store, invited to a gathering with some new faces, or even pull up a bar stool beside a stranger.
What do you do to introduce yourself?
Possibly a little small talk about the weather, sports, or current events, then share your name and a handshake. Typically people will exchange information about themselves until they find some common ground. Believe it or not, most of the time, money is that common ground. There are very few instances when meeting new people that "what do you do to make money" is not brought up.
The forum, and social network intro is the same way. Sell yourself and your worth first, share what you know and help people. You will be remembered in a more positive light. Offer marketing help to other any time you can. Sharing your business tips not only helps others but, builds a relationship.
If you do not believe that a proper introduction about YOURSELF is important then I have a test for you!
Walk into church, a shopping mall, family gathering....
Now, you remember that intro, PM, or email that you put out to strangers and claimed was not an ad?
Walk up to any stranger at one of those places and read that intro to them. See if they just walk off, give you a WTH look, or maybe they will jump on your business offer and buy all your items. ![]()
Ok, I reallllllly do not think the last one will happen. Please let us know how it worked out for you! LOL!
It will be tremendously more productive in the long run to enhance the quality of your life, really get to know and become friends with more people.
Have fun networking!!
