Network Marketing Journey

Tom Long, an networking associate and long time friend of mine likes to describe online marketing as ‘putting billboards up all over the Internet’. A great way to visualize this is to think of all of the billboards set up along the highway.

The only difference, in this case, is you’re on the information ’superhighway’ AND in a lot of cases the advertising is free (or next to no cost). Sometimes people find it hard to believe you can make money online without spending great sums of money but you can.

This goes right along with my post about the butterfly affect in network marketing. You start out small but if you keep at it, people will find you through many different types of advertising avenues.

As a result of the efforts I’ve put into effect in the past and continue to do today, I have gotten the attention of more than one industry leader. They all tell me they are impressed with the things I’ve accomplished but since I had only begun at the time I didn’t really put a lot of faith into what they said.

After all, I had little confidence in myself and that translated into not really believing them. However, time and my continued efforts proved them right. By continuing my blogging, article marketing, forum marketing and so on, I generated leads for the networking side of the business but more importantly (in my eyes) I began to generate between 50-100 product sales a month.

And still do to this day, with that number slowly growing over time.

Don’t underestimate the power of what you can do through accumulated effort.
