So Where's The Marketing In Your Networking Marketing Business?

By Carlos Alston

Are you excited about being in your new network marketing business? Excellent! Perhaps though, you've been in the business for some time. Way to go for hanging in there. What steps are you taking get your network marketing business to your audience? Whats different between where you are now and the successful big guns? Answer: These folks know how to MARKET their network marketing opportunity and THEMSELVES each and every day of the week.

Is your network marketing strategy limited to the old school warm market list and invite-a-friend-and-hope-they-show-up-to-my-opportunity-meeting strategy?

I'm not bad mouthing those strategies at all, but the top network marketers are using strategies that go far beyond that. The majority of network marketers simply don't know and aren't taught basic marketing principles when they join network marketing.

The ultra successful networkers in the industry are very smart when it comes to marketing. They "get" the time-tested marketing principles and incorporate marketing psychology. They've generated a set of skills that enables them to use a variety of marketing strategies to bring, others into their networking businesses. This is the reason you consistently hear about these guys and why opt into their network marketing lists.

These folks are sweeping the internet, branding themselves with Web 20 audio, video, etc. and all sorts of communication tactics I'll bet you're already following them on twitter and on a number of their lists. You listen to what they say. You buy what they recommend. Also, they're marketing themselves in the offline world.

A lot of us just aren't given info on HOW to market like this. So what's the answer? We could ALL use convenient 24/7 access to a service that will teach you about iron-clad proven marketing principles for our network marketing business.

Well, about 2 months ago, I got an invitation to a marketing experiment that has literally changed how I do my network marketing business. Nadira Haniff invited me to join her 180DaysToGreatness program, which teaches mindset, business and marketing skillset, all combined with real time coaching. I had some skepticism at first, but then Nadira just kept BLOWING ME AWAY with her intense belief, willpower, marketing prowess, and pure willingness to share.

180DaysToGreatness is just one situations that come along once in a great while and you realize it really is something special. I feel like I've been treated to an amazing opportunity to truly understand how to market my network marketing business (or any other for that matter) and now there is no limit to how far I (or you) can go with it. I suggest you see if it might be right for your networking business.
