Many people hold back on networking because of stories they have heard, experiences they have encountered, or being on the receiving end of an over excited marketer who thinks his opportunity is the best. People end up thinking this is the worst kind of publicity that can be generated for any commercial venture.
But till the time you harbor this kind of view about networking, you aren’t going to do well with it.
Think over these points.
1. When you are networking, you are reaching out to people. It is right that 8 out of these 10 people may not be interested in what you are trying to say, but there might be 2 who will lend you an interested ear and will actually find that what you are saying may be beneficial to them. These people will think that you are telling them something truly great. When you consider things from their point of view, you are doing very well by reaching out to them through networking.
2. You might also think that networking is something that’s quite brazen and probably even ribald. That is one reason you might not want to associate yourself with it. You might think that you will be interfering and intruding in other people’s lives when you are networking to them. However, today there are so many options where you don’t even need to meet the person you are networking to. Social networking sites have made things much simpler for the introverted networking candidate.
3. This has also removed the pressure from the other thing that might build a reservation about networking in you, and that is the time and effort that you have to put in. Actually speaking, you don’t have to do much when you are networking today because with the Internet there are so many interesting options open to you.
Yes, it is true that networking has changed a lot from what it was earlier. Today, you can find a person who will be interested to join your network and then market to them. The chances of rejection have become quite low in today’s times.
Tomorrow I will be talking about how to consider the other person as important.

Great article and Network Marketing is such an interesting profession. Also when you network, remember you are looking for referrals not necessarily selling to everyone there.
You are so right. That is what my article will be tomorrow. Thanks for stopping by Andy. Anita
Interesting points. For me social networking has been a way forward.
I do a lot of social networking as well and love every minute of it. I am so glad that it is working for you. Have a great weekend. Anita
Great article on networking. It really has changed over the years. Being heard amid the noise is the challenge!
I totally agree. Thanks Peggy. Have a great New Years. Anita
