Go Ahead and Reinvent the Damn/Heavenly Wheel!

How many times have we heard the expression "you don't have to reinvent the wheel." I'm not saying don't listen to others or their advice. What I am saying is, take what you can from others, and decide what works best for you. Of course there are people making 'goo gobs' of money doing various affiliate based programs. They bombard us with info constantly, and sometimes it can be confusing. Yes, people are making money online! Yes, there are numerous ways, but someone like me, Manifest_1, relatively new to this online marketing biz stuff, can feel a little overwhelmed. Hey, I know the online biz is where it's at! No if ands or buts! The future of technology is happening right now, either we get involved, or live in the stone ages!

I understand the importance of technology. I have a technology background, but this online marketing goes way beyond just building a nice website...I get it! Now, some people may say, 'affiliate to death and forget about the outcome because you'll only feel let down.' Well, I don't put my heart and soul into anything, unless I have great expectations. Yet, I know there will be obstacles to overcome on the journey of Financial Independence (Notice, I said, of Financial Independence instead of to because it's not a destination when you are living in the Now). Yes, I am in a MLM program that I really Love. I Love the people and the Product! I've met some wonderful people in this Global Community!

Now, I've been in MLM for almost 2 years, and I've watch people use outdated marketing methods. Although, when you are inexperienced there are some good 'wheels' put in place. But haven't you had those moments when you felt like you were not being yourself when approaching prospects...um hmm...you were doing everything verbatim...reading a script...being just like everyone else. Now, I don't consider myself a specialist by any means, but I know, when I decided to add some Manifest_1 flavor to my marketing strategy, the doors begin to open. People respond better when you are yourself.

Now, people, who have or have not been successful ,yet, at virtual marketing may sometimes start an online marketing assault in your inbox. It's what I call cold marketing...truly cold marketing! We have to remember how we felt when people approached us this way wanting us to join their business venture. How did you feel? You have to develop a relationship with people whether it's online or offline. You have to understand your potential prospects needs. Customers can see eyeballs with dollar signs a mile away. Understand your customers needs. When you genuinely connect with people, and show them how your product or service can legitimately be of value to them, and not being, solely, into lining your pockets, you have succeeded or will succeed! Listen to your heart regardless of what anyone says. Sometimes, in online marketing you may have to take The Road Less Traveled! Go ahead and Reinvent the Damn/Heavenly Wheel!

Sometimes Frustration Sets in, but remember to Be Patient. Patience did not come easy for me, it's a skill I acquired over the years. Make sure your are surrounded by positive people who will uplift you! It's so easy to judge people who are taking care of positive business, when you are not tending to your own! So get you some business today, and stay out of ours!! Entreprenuers, keep rising to the Top!!!
