Subject: Send a Friend Request For The Right Reason

Hello Friend,

How's it going? Hope all is well!

The eve before Thanksgiving and I want to share today's
marketing tip.

If you're on Facebook, you're probably getting friend requests

all the time. As a network marketer, you know how important

it is to extend your network.

You do this by looking for people who resonate with you in

some way then sending a friend request.

Most times, the friend request is accepted and this is the

point where many network marketers go astray.

They haven't figured out yet that sending a request comes

with certain "expectations".

Just like any other new friendship, you have to get to know

the person. That happens gradually whether on social media

or in person.

So what do many network marketers do that they shouldn't do?

Read the marketing tip!

THERESA'S MARKETING TIP: Send a Friend Request For The
Right Reason.

Network marketing is about building relationships. When you send
someone a friend request, what are you really thinking?

Are you thinking about getting to know the person, learning about
them just as you would with someone you just met in person?

When you meet someone at a bank or in line at the grocery store
or even at a party, what do you talk about? Family? occupation?
likes and interests? Sports or politics?

Those are the kinds of topics one would expect a conversation to
be about when you're making a new friend. Social media is not at
all different. The only thing that is different is that you're not talking
face to face but the conversation should be the same.

Too many network marketers are sending friend requests and are
either subsequently ignoring the person THEY reached out to,
or think because a request was sent means a green light to pitch
their business.

Think seriously about what you are trying to achieve. Pitching
someone you've just met is a no-no, digging in to their business
to find fault and offer yours is another no-no.

Stop doing this.

People get turned off by it and you will lose someone who might
have turned into a customer or partner.

If you want to be a top-earner, pay attention to what you see and
listen to what you hear….build relationships. It’s the only way!

Hope you found value in this, Friend, and if so, pass it along
to someone who needs to hear it!
