New Network Marketers - You Don't Have to Pitch Your Friends

Are you a new network marketer who is quickly losing friends to promote your business to? The old technique of creating a list of 100 or so people that you know is a sure way to lose friends or at least be avoided by them for awhile. Whether or not you were taught this method by your upline sponsor, you will probably come across it sooner or later when reading about the topic of mlm marketing.

There is nothing wrong with creating a list of friends, however, it is important to go through your list and keep the people on it that you know would be truly interested in a new business opportunity. Going through your list and hounding everyone you know is a quick way to be ignored rather than developing new leads.

A Better Way to Network with People


You no longer need to pester your friends in order to grow your business. Many people forget that network marketing is a real business and should be treated as such. Would you expect your friends to be your only customers if you owned a brick and mortar business? Of course not! There are tons of people out there who are searching for a new business opportunity. You just have to learn how to attract them.

Thanks to the internet, attracting these targeted leads is easier than ever. We have access to free social media web sites like Facebook, Twitter, and MySpace. You can also create a blog and mini-sites that all lead back to your main web site. Marketing online is so much easier and better than pitching to your friends or anyone who comes within a few feet of you.
