Are You Doing Business By Shaking Hands Online
We all understand the importance of doing business properly
which means shaking hands with your prospects, you may be asking
yourself how can you do that electronically through a computer??
Let me tell you exactly how to do it from your very own home
computer.....
First of all you need to register with an online community now
there are various ones such as MSN, Yahoo, ICQ, AOL and many
more which can all give you access to millions of prospects
online that you can effectively promote your business
opportunity too.
I reccomend AOL the reason being is that it is one of the
internets oldest and easiest to use online services with more
members than most online communities therefore giving you access
to more prospects than your business may well be able to handle.
Once you have registered with your community in this case
assuming that it is AOL, you must then start to create your
member profile.
Now your online profile has to be as interesting and targetted
as possible, it should contain information such as your full
name, world location, age, hobbies, occupation and your skills.
On your profile you must provide as much information as you can
provided you also keep it relevant, the reason being if you have
a bad profile people are not going to want to chat however on
the other hand if you have an extremely interesting profile you
will get a much better response from your prospects.
The time has now come to perform a search in the member
directory in order to find prospects. The ways in which you can
do this are simply by entering the location, interests, age or
sex of the type of prospects you are looking for, the more
information you provide during your search the better quality of
prospects you will find.
Once you have filtered through your search results you must then
send your prospects an instant message some good hook lines that
have been tried and tested by me are listed below.
"Hi there I was just taking a break at work when I did a search
of the member directory and I found your profile, you have a
really good one"
"Ive just been looking through your profile and I noticed you
play gold I also have a very keen interest in golf"
"From reading your profile I can see that you swim alot Im
currently working as a lifeguard"
"I see you currently work in network marketing so do I, how long
have you been doing it for?"
After starting a conversation with your prospects you may well
eventually get asked the question is this network marketing?
Below are some replies which i currently use....
"What is your understanding of network marketing? Do you know
much about it?"
"Do you like network marketing?"
"Have you ever tried network marketing?"
The most important thing to remember is even if you do not
promote your business during your early conversations with your
new prospects you will however have built a relationship with
them and can then follow up with them on a regular basis and
build a certain level of trust also, when they log online you
must wait around 5 minutes before sending them any instant
messages.
The above is just a very short briefing of how to shake hands on
the internet visit my websites listed below and let me show you
the basic and advanced techniques of finding quality prospects
free of charge.
