The most important thing people forget about this business we are in that the best networkers are Inviters.


Just a little story about being an Inviter

A couple of years ago I joined a business that I won't say which. LOL but not being a rookie I was building this business like I always do and it was going well.
I started teaching my team the importance of being an Inviter. Well I wasn't following my own teachings and started to realize this.
One day I was on Facebook and meet a young lady that lived in Atlanta, as we talked to remembered that my mentor and business partner was going to be in Atlanta the following week.
So I invited her and her Husband to this business presentation.
As I recall the night of the presentation was one of the worst storms that had hit Atlanta in a very long time.
Her and her husband made it even through the storm.
This couple turned out to be great leaders in my business and brought in several thousand people, and we have become the closest of friends.
Now I don't try to recruit any more but I do invite people to watch a webinar or be on a conf call, or come to a meeting with or without me. I also invite them to speak to my upline.
Even tho I am a great recruiter I still and always will be an inviter.
People will try to teach so many diff ways to do this business and all are good depending on your comfort zone, but I have always found all people are comfortable inviting.

I agree with you GlobalPete.

In business, they key thing is to connect with people first! This is the bit that most of us miss. We are all about selling, selling, selling! People need to know that there is a real person behind all those emails and blog posts etc.

Once you invite them to watch a webinar that you really enjoyed or listen to an audio, use this as an opportunity to connect. This way there is also no pressure on them to join your business...which is the way it should be.

If you have something of value to offer, people you connect with will be happy to join your business.

Good share. It reminds me to consider what I did in similar situation.

Interaction is definitely important if we want to win someone's trust.

That is really inspiring. Being an inviter really pays off. This is why it is important that you have the patient to invite as many people as you can.
