Social Media Training

If you are a direct marketer for a company like The Happy Gardener, 7 Peaks Publishing Social Media Training can help you generate more sales and grow your business!

Social Media websites like FaceBook, Twitter, and YouTube, are tailor-made for blossoming your Network Marketing or Direct Selling company. These entities are in truth functioning for the purpose of building relationships and spreading awareness of things concerning your life. They are avenues for warm, conversational interacting. Fortunately, Network Marketing/Direct Selling businesses are most effectively created by starting with developing relationships; by “sharing”, not pushing your business; and by engaging in conversation rather than giving presentations.

So, the two are really well-matched. The tricky part is to utilize Social Media in helpful way. If used correctly, it can help your business immensely. If used ineffectively, it could at best be ineffective, and worst-case, be viewed with hostility and harm your company. Below are 3 tips to get you beginning in the right direction:

1. When using Social Media, present yourself as if you were going to a party. Social Media is going to be a friendly, light environment, so it’s good to go into it that way. If you are always serious and business-oriented, it could really turn people away. Remember, people WANT to be on Social Media. They are ALREADY it it and almost all are in for the fun parts. So, it is imperative to follow this pattern when talking about your company. Learn much, much more about manipulating social media to your advantage through our Social Media Marketing Training.

2. Get people to know, like, and have a vested interest in you. There are an innumerable amount of methods to accomplish this, and some are simple and not difficult to understand. For example, use the right kind of photo. Statistics show that a warm and inviting smile gets 63% more people to follow you on Twitter. Compliment people, give them helpful information, show your sympathy and concern for their lives. In other words, say all the things that hopefully come naturally to you and that are natural for people when interacting in Social Media.

3. Engage in conversation, don’t just present your product. Social Media is a great environment to develop relationships – both to build new ones and strengthen existing ones. Flow naturally as much as possible, not forced, when creating posts. “Natural” is conversational. Natural is sharing things about your life. Forced is businesslike. Forced is presentation, not sharing. For example, if you naturally share stuff concerning how you live – recent fun business trips you have taken (with photographs), good health you’ve gotten from your company’s products, great solutions to people’s health problems, photographs of your lifestyle, information that enables them to see that you have time freedom – people would hopefully start to ASK you what kind of business you are in. And tada, you are then in a conversation, instead of a presentation, about your business!
