Tips On Building A Home Based Business: Is Attending Local Marketing Meetings Neccessary For Success
Regardless of what home based business, network marketing company or multi-level marketing business you belong to or are considering joining, if they offer a local meeting system you should consider taking them up on the offer to attend only if it makes sense in the growth of your business.Of course, with the increase of online marketing thanks to the proliferation of the Internet many people are opting out of attending local downline meetings. This may or may not be a mistake depending on how you plan to market your business. Some home based business opportunities are actually better suited to having local meetings where others might benefit more from conference calls or webinars.In the old days, many of the top multi-level marketers focused on using a 3-foot rule where they passed out brochures and flyers to anyone and everyone that came within 3 feet of them. They also were trained to create a list of everyone they knew and to then use this friends and family warm list as their marketing starting point.Although this method is not for everyone it does work for those that are extremely outgoing and have a natural ability to attract attention or draw people to them. So, it would only make sense that a local meeting would be ideal for these types of network marketers.For the business owners in my own downline I am finding that many prefer marketing online using a variety of sources such as Facebook and other social networking sites, blogs, videos, article marketing, webinars and podcasts instead of local meetings. Although they miss out on the intimacy of a face-to-face meeting they gain worldwide exposure thanks to the Internet.Of course, there are those marketers that are able to be successful both on the Internet and with local meetings and they seem to enjoy the advantages of both types of marketing.Personally, I enjoy the efficient aspect of using the Internet to build my home based business but at the same time I also enjoy having a group meeting in order to discuss exciting new ways to build our home based business.In fact, I’d really like to help you out with your own work from home business opportunity.
