Is This Any Way To Win Friends And Influence People?
Is This Any Way To Win Friends And Influence People?
We’ve all heard the ravings and rantings about how important it is in direct sales, to “relate” – that success must be built on starting and building relationships. Sometimes they call what we do “relationship marketing.” Some say that’s why network marketing is a natural thing for women to do.
Yet, the things people are taught to say to others about their products appear to do the opposite – they tend to drive the other woman away – glazed eyes and all – even one who might have been a good match for the product (or business).
For example, one lady, when asked “What do you do?” by someone, bubbled:
“Ooh, I’m a wellness consultant! We market unique, patented, scientifically proven nutraceuticals, and blah blah blah…”
Your reaction? Read it out loud. Say it to someone else. See how
