Home Based Network Marketing Industry Changing Forever

When I was first told by one of my mentors and good friend, Ellie Drake, that the Internet was changing and that the home based network marketing business industry would be changing forever, I was not ready for the change.  I tried to study and absorb however, nothing was going into my brain and I was quite overwhelmed! 😯   This was in 2007 and I was not ready to learn this whole new language on the web.  Today, it’s obvious that the world is changing and the web is growing at an exponential rate, far beyond any one’s imagination!

I can see today that these technological changes have advanced communication and will change the way we all interact forever.  Once I was ready to learn this new “foreign” language, I began to get fascinated at how much growth the social networks were achieving.  I realized that if I decided to learn this new language from step 1, I would get to step 2, then 3, then 4, etc.  Confucius said “A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step“.

A New Language And New Skills

It was a new way of communicating just like the Internet when it was first introduced in the late 90s.  I struggled with that too, as I had learned most of my network marketing skills by talking, or using the telephone.  Gosh, I’m aging myself huh? 😆  Yes, we built most of our business before Web 1.0!  There was no Internet in 1995. 😉  We are still learning, however, each day we are learning so many new and innovative ways to communicate with people around the world.  When you own a home based business, you communicate with many people.  In fact, the more people you communicate with, the faster your home business thrives.  So, learning this “new” language is essential (in my humble opinion) to a home based business owner.

Believe me, I know how you feel, I felt the same way, until I discovered so many resources to learn from and they are all free today!  You can watch videos, read blogs, listen to podcasts, tune in to webinars, conference calls, etc. to learn Web 2.0 and 3.0 for your home based business.  Thank you to all the contributors who so freely share their knowledge and wisdom with everyone! 🙂

Ever Wonder Why We Keep On Doing The Same Things Over & Over?

Have you ever decided to change your results and before you knew it, you were back in your old routines? Does this sound familiar?  How about your New Year’s Resolution? How is that going for you so far this year?

It’s the second week in February and if you are like most people, you haven’t changed your habits, so your New Year’s Resolutions are not really proceeding as planned, yes? 🙄   Be honest with yourself because it’s still early and we can still change to make our This Year Your Best Year Ever! 😀 (more…)

Social Networking And Home Based Business

Social Media isn’t a fad, it’s a fundamental shift in the way we communicate with each other.  When I was first introduced to social networking, I thought it was just for the “young” people and that it was just fun and games.  We have been in the home based network marketing business industry since 1995 and we had built most of our business without the internet. So when the internet was introduced to us, we took a while to get used to Web 1.0 – email, and all of the websites.  It worked pretty well, until I was introduced to Facebook by Shannon Tecson, one of our leaders in Hawaii.  She insisted more than once (thank goodness for her persistence) that I take a look and then she started to “monetize” from her Facebook page, and that got my attention.

I have to admit, I was a little slow to understand how incredible this new tool was.  As I started to connect with more people around the world, I realized how powerful this could be for relationships and business.  One of the reasons I love being in my home based business is that everyone in our business became my family.  All of the people we do business with are our friends and our family, because we all love what we do, therefore we share it with everyone we know.  A lot of our business comes from “Word of Mouth” because of how we look, how we feel, and the freedom we all have.  People want to look and feel the way we feel, and have the freedom of working at home, so they become a part of our business too.

As we began getting excited about the exponential growth of the internet from Web 1.0 to 2.0 and now to 3.0, we realized that social networking is word of mouth communication with a huge advantage.  We can now talk to the world!  It now has become a global “world of mouth” communication, which is really referral marketing.  If people like how they look and how they feel, and, if they feel good about you and your company, they tell others about you, your product and your company.  Wow, what a concept?  And technology has made communication around the world possible for free!

I am so grateful to companies like Facebook and Skype who have revolutionized the way we all connect with each other.  I have made so many friendships with people in many different countries whom I would have never met if it were not for these emerging technologies.  I just love it! 😆

The world has changed forever.  We are now able to have family and friends all over the world whom we have never met in person, and yet we are able to connect with them on such an intimate level.  We are all so fortunate to experience this evolution during this time when the whole world will become One!
