Social Media Marketing has created one of the Biggest & Influential audiences in the World.

I hope you are doing well and getting through all of this craziness that’s going on!

For years society has told us that we must go to school then go to college and then get a job and work for someone else till we are 65 and then, and only then, can you retire and start living your life. Well, not anymore. You see, working from home is the new going to work. And with the arrival of the Internet, this has helped turn that dream into a reality for thousands of people.

Let’s be honest, none of us really enjoy going to work. We don’t like the early mornings, we don’t like working late, we don’t get enough holidays and we certainly don’t get paid enough. Let’s face it, work makes most of us miserable. I’m sure you could fill your days with better things to do if you didn’t have to go to work and I’m sure you could spend more money if you earned more money. You would probably be a much happier person if you didn’t have a boss, or put another way if you were the boss.

This is why more and more people have now decided to quit their full-time jobs and work from home. There is a major reason why so many people are choosing this new lifestyle and it’s probably not what you think. Sure, earning more money is a key factor, but so is freedom. Yes, the home worker has discovered what is more important to some people than money and that is the freedom to start living their lives. Freedom from the daily 9 – 5 grind is something most of us dream of early in our working career and it’s something that most of us don’t get to experience until too late in our lives.

But who are the brave souls that have decided to take this leap of faith and go it alone? To embark on a journey where they are in control of their own future.  Yes, they are normal people, but they have realized the power of the Internet. To them, the Internet is not just a place to download music or watch funny videos on youtube. To them, the Internet is their ticket to freedom.

As life-changing as the Internet has been to all of us, only a small portion of the global population is harnessing the true power of the Internet. Yes, it’s great to listen to music and watch films for free or book your next holiday whilst sitting on your sofa. But the Internet is so much more than that, as it brings people together. And it’s this global connection that people are exploiting to change their lives. The average person can now set up an online shop from their own home and sell to a global market place. And because they now work from home, they can work when they want and earn what they want.

But in order to really take advantage of the internet, this new breed of internet entrepreneurs have gone a step further than the traditional business owner and have decided to fully automate their business so it virtually runs on autopilot. In other words, the money keeps rolling in, even whilst they are not working. And one of the best ways of doing this is through consumable products.

You see, with consumable products you can make a sale once and as long as you retain your customer, they will keep paying you a recurring income each and every month. And the more customers you have, the more money you receive every month.

With the current state of the economy, working from home is more practical than making the attempt to find an additional job. While starting your own business might be difficult, network marketing provides a great way to make extra income. You will earn money while helping others to do the same and even make some new friends. Applying your knowledge and creativity will give you a strong chance at success.

When trying to successfully network the market, it is important that provide the original people with substantial awards and praise in order for them to spread your name to their friends and coworkers. Such prizes could be “in the now” electronics, money, gift cards, etc. If the original person does not get rewarded for references, they are much less likely to help you.

It may take money to make money with network marketing, so do not forget that you may need to invest in order to see a return on that investment. If you aren’t ready to put any money into building a successful marketing business, perhaps you should look elsewhere to find money-making opportunities.

Learn to love your objectors. Objections allow you a chance to bring up a positive and give more information to your prospects. Every objection is a chance to change someone’s mind. Be careful to avoid getting into a verbal back and forth with them however just answer their objections and move on.

You’re going to need to have a lot of confidence in yourself to make it as a network marketer. You won’t need to visit the shrink or anything that drastic, but you should work on boosting your self-esteem in order to become a better salesperson and to increase the number of members in your network.

A clean office can lead to better focus, which will help you in your network marketing business. Make sure to keep all your receipts related to your business in plastic totes and tuck them away – if you leave them lying around you’ll find some will end up missing or eaten by the dog!

A professional business card is key when presenting yourself as a network marketer. You can get handsome cards both designed and printed by online companies and shipped to your door for extremely low prices, so take advantage of these offers! Getting the word out locally is as important as having a great website, and your professional image must be maintained in both worlds.

Branding yourself along with your product is key to your network marketing success. With other competition in the marketplace, you are the key difference that can make or break your financial freedom. Having a great product is a good start, but without a positive attitude and an excitement that only you can bring, you will never achieve success in network marketing.
